This was nothing like some lofty inheritor. He was more like an old man afraid his precious little treasure might run off, coaxing and cajoling him to stay.
Beneath all that dignity, it reeked of a rigged game.
This wasn't a trial at all. He was practically being forced to accept the inheritance!
Xuan Ye was speechless.
He stood where he was and fell silent for a moment.
Then the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, beyond his control.
Still.

Xuan Ye began pacing slowly through the empty, deathly silent first floor.
A moment later.
As he walked, the space ahead rippled.
Soft halos of light and deep shadows intertwined out of thin air, condensing into solid form.

Beneath it, a line of ancient-looking golden script slowly appeared, thoughtfully written as if afraid he wouldn't understand.
[Light-Dark Symbiosis Crystal: Can nourish Light Spiritual Power and the Dark Spiritual Aperture simultaneously, stabilizing the foundation of dual attributes.]
Xuan Ye didn't stop walking.

Then came the next items.
[Twin Soul Fruit: Contains a trace of Chaos Origin aura and can strengthen the Sea of Consciousness and Soul Origin simultaneously.]
[Chaos Body Tempering Dew: Purifies the body and improves the compatibility between the spirit furnace and the Host's attributes.]
One item after another.
Every single one was a priceless treasure that would be impossible to find in the outside
