Too Fragile

"Yedier ..."

Jiang Yao exclaimed in amazement, "I never imagined that the Shixing Race had such a great and powerful figure in its history."

This Inheritance Token, called the Star Core, is a unique treasure within the Star Abyss Sea, inhabited by the Shixing Race, and is also the Inheritance Token mentioned in the message on the black wall.

Long ago, the Shixing Race had a great being Yedier, who was revered as the Holy Lord by the Shixing Race.

Yedier was originally just an ordinary Immortal God of the Shixing Race, but suddenly he obtained a mysterious inheritance and rose rapidly, becoming Top Universe Overlord in just a few hundred thousand years.

It is even more powerful than the top Universe Overlord, and many Universe Masters are no match for it. As a result, many people from various races and major forces in the universe believe that Yedier is already Universe Master.

Yedier's sudden rise led to a rapid expansion of the Shixing Race's strength, which soon allowed them to leave the Jueting Secret Realm and even occupy many star fields.

But Yedier rose and fell just as suddenly, like a brilliant shooting star that illuminated the universe, only to be killed by the Monster Race and fall abruptly.

Jiang Yao seemed to be deep in thought; he had made thorough preparations for this God Kingdom Trial.

Although he lacked the necessary permissions to find accurate information on the Virtual Universe Network, his teacher Kasolo, still had some knowledge of the Shixing Race.

According to Kasolo, the Jueting Secret Realm was originally conquered by the Monster Race, who plundered the Jueting Secret Realm Maze-Pattern Meta-Crystal within. However, this was met with joint intervention from humans, Zerg, and Machine Race. Ultimately, the Jueting Secret Realm did not fall into the hands of the Monster Race but instead became the tenth Outer-Region Battlefield for the four races.

Subsequently, the Four Peak Races studied the Maze-Pattern Meta-Crystal they had acquired for a period of time but made no progress, and the Maze-Pattern Meta-Crystal's popularity waned.

However, Kasolo did not mention that the Shixing Race had ever produced Universe Overlord like Yedier. Either Kasolo did not know, but Jiang Yao was more inclined to believe that such matters involving Universe Overlord were too far removed from his understanding, so Kasolo did not mention them.

Combining the fact that Yedier was killed by the Monster Race, and then the Monster Race couldn't wait to conquer the Jueting Secret Realm and initially stole a lot of Maze-Pattern Meta-Crystal, the rise and fall of the Shixing Race and the hidden reasons behind it can be roughly pieced together.

The mysterious inheritance that allowed Yedier to grow from an ordinary Immortal God to an existence comparable to the Universe Master in a short period of time would probably be the envy of even the most elite races.

The value of this Inheritance Token is therefore self-evident.

However, according to the information he obtained from the Star Core, there was not just one, but many of these Inheritance Tokens. It can only be said that obtaining the Inheritance Token is equivalent to obtaining an entry ticket to compete for the mysterious inheritance left by Yedier.

Ultimately, one must go to the Jueting Secret Realm, which is the Tenth Battlefield outside the four races' domains, to have any chance of obtaining this inheritance that even the most powerful races covet.

"Perhaps the Four Peak Races have already obtained quite a few Inheritance Token, otherwise they wouldn't have so readily abandoned the research on the Maze-Pattern Meta-Crystal..."

Jiang Yao pondered for a while and then put away the Star Core. Going to the Tenth Battlefield to seize the legacy left by Yedier was still too far away for him.

It would be impossible for him not to want it. In fact, if it weren't for the <Zhenhuang> inheritance that Kasolo gave him, he probably wouldn't have obtained the Red-Pattern Crystal Armor in this God Kingdom Trial, let alone upgraded his Xu Yuan Space to the second level.

The legacy that enabled Yedier to leap to become Top Universe Overlord is definitely much more precious than <Zhenhuang>.

But he does possess the Nine Transformations of the Desolate God. If he really wants to go, he should at least wait until he upgrades the Xu Yuan Space to the third level, and, as Bajie said, separates Bizhang before venturing out.

Jiang Yao looked around and, finding no other lost treasures, was about to leave when he saw ripples appear at the entrance of the hall, followed by the appearance of a figure.

The short, thin-tailed Cang He is the strongest among the cosmic-level trial participants this time.

Jiang Yao was not surprised. If someone could really solve the maze, the first one to enter would definitely be Cang He, since he had a deep Law Comprehension and would definitely have an advantage in solving the maze.

Cang He scanned the interior of the hall, then fixed his gaze on Jiang Yao: "You obtained the Inheritance Token mentioned on the maze wall?"

Jiang Yao laughed and said, "You guys divided up the treasures of the first 29 floors, so it's not much for me to just take the treasures of the 30th and 31st floors, is it?"

Cang He narrowed his eyes, looking at the stellar-level youth in front of him who had repeatedly surprised everyone, and his vigilance reached its peak.

Before entering, he had secretly vowed to kill Jiang Yao without any hesitation after solving the maze, and he had even abandoned the idea of enslaving him.

But at this moment, he hesitated. A thought urged him to kill the kid immediately, but his subconscious seemed to be controlling his body, preventing him from making any rash moves.

Perhaps it was due to the mysterious technique or treasure that allowed Jiang Yao to inexplicably transform into a streak of red light and pass through the black wall without any hindrance.

Or perhaps Jiang Yao, who had been severely injured and had a weak aura before, was now full of energy, as if the injuries he had suffered were just an illusion.

Jiang Yao could see the killing intent and fear in Cang He's eyes, and laughed, "It seems you definitely won't let me out of this Inheritance Tower easily. You've attacked me several times before, so it's only fair to retaliate. This time, it'll be my turn to strike, and we'll see if you can survive!"

In the Xu Yuan Space, Jiang Yao's consciousness stroked the head of Bizhang's will, causing Bizhang to tilt its long neck back in a gesture of enjoyment. Then, Jiang Yao patted its head.

"Go ahead, let me see your fighting instincts!"

Bizhang's will let out a cry that seemed to understand, and then it rushed out of the Xu Yuan Space.

Upon hearing Jiang Yao's words, Cang He found them somewhat absurd and sneered, "Do you think the gap between you and me can be bridged by a few treasures and secret techniques?"

Suddenly his expression changed, and he stared intently at Jiang Yao, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

Jiang Yao only closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, he was like a completely different person.

His eyes were filled with indifference and coldness, devoid of any human emotion.

His aura had completely changed, now exuding an eerie scent.

Although her appearance hasn't changed at all, she gives off the feeling of a completely different person.

No, it's not human at all!

Cang He felt a chill run down his spine; the person before him was like a monster in human skin.

Jiang Yao's consciousness sat on the sidelines in the Xu Yuan Space, watching as Bizhang's will completely took over his body. This was the first time he had willingly allowed Bi Zhang to control his body without worrying about being attacked.

Jiang Yao's body suddenly vanished, and before Cang He could react, he was already in front of him.

How could it be so fast?!

With an expressionless face, Jiang Yao's palm and fingers were like knives, instantly covered with a layer of blazing flames, and he slashed at Cang He with seemingly slow but actually fast speed.

As the Cang He tried to dodge, it found itself gripped by immense pressure from the surrounding space, pinning it firmly to the spot.

The Origin Law of Space?!

With a muffled thud, Cang He was sent flying. If it weren't for the battle armor bestowed upon him by his teacher, which could weaken most physical attacks, he would have been killed by now.

Jiang Yao's consciousness observed how Bizhang's will manipulated his body, and even though he had expected it, he was still amazed.

There is a saying called "man and sword as one," or "man and weapon as one." It means that the man and the sword are in harmony, and the sword is like a part of the body, which can be used freely under control, just like the dexterity of the hand.

The battle of Bizhang's will, as observed from the sidelines, can be summarized as the unity of man and law, where law is the law of laws.

The Origin Law are like extensions of his arms and legs, an integral part of him. There's no need to comprehend or analyze any laws or mysteries; it's like manipulating his arms and legs—it's an instinctive control.

The Cang He had just fallen to the ground, enduring its severe injuries, and was trying to get up when suddenly a tremendous sense of terror overwhelmed it.

Jiang Yao pointed his right index finger forward, as if imitating Cang He 'Jiang Yao two previous attacks on him, except that this finger contained the four Origin Law fire, light, space, and time.

It also possesses both physical and Soul Attack.

The Cang He's soul vanished in an instant.

"... They're way too fragile."

Jiang Yao, having switched back to his "First Personality," looked at Cang He's corpse and sighed inwardly, "If I had displayed such strength in the Genius Tournament, I'm afraid the Chaos City Lord would have immediately accepted me as his personal disciple, wouldn't he?"

Unfortunately, whether switching to Bizhang's will for battle or directly transforming into Desolate God, these methods can only be used in the real world; even the Xu Yuan Space cannot appear in the Virtual Universe Network.

Moreover, before he could completely obliterate Bizhang's consciousness by raising the Xu Yuan Space to the third level, he even had to hide the existence of the Desolate God Bizhang from the Chaos City Lord as much as possible.

The main difference is that his <Nine Transformations of the Desolate God> is not quite the same as Luo Feng's possession of the Golden Horned Beast.

Some things may be difficult to explain. If the Chaos City Lord were to identify him as a powerful Special Lifeform attempting to possess a human and infiltrate the Core Layer the Virtual Universe Company, he would be greatly wronged.

After all, even he himself can't say with a clear conscience that he is human.

Jiang Yao burned the corpse of Cang He with a ball of fire and also collected its armor and Space Ring.

Then, with a thought, the closed main door of the hall rippled again, and with one step, I returned to the 31st floor where the black wall was located.

Jiang Yao's appearance startled the more than twenty cosmic-level trial participants who were sitting cross-legged in front of the wall, their consciousness absorbed in trying to escape the maze.

"Cang... it's you?"

These geniuses from the Three Great Secret Realms never expected that what emerged from behind the black wall was not Cang He.

"You used that same trick to escape from the Cang He again, didn't you?"

One of the trial participants, covered in downy hair, sneered, "I really don't believe you can use this secret technique multiple times. If you're so capable, try turning into light and escaping again!"

Before he finished speaking, he pounced on Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao sighed and activated his "Second Personality" again, his aura turning cold and sinister.

Then, to the horrified gaze of the hairy trial participant, Jiang Yao punched him in the chest, piercing his entire body through the blazing flames, killing him instantly.

Jiang Yao, who had instantly killed his opponent, had a cold gaze and did not stop. Instead, he charged directly into the group of other trainees who were already dumbfounded.

Before long, all the trial participants on the 31st floor were beaten and lying on the ground.

Apart from the first person who attacked him, Jiang Yao maintained control over Bizhang's will and prevented him from going on a killing spree.

Although there are tens of thousands of cosmic-level beings who have entered the God Kingdom, those who can come here are all the cream of the crop among the cosmic-level disciples of the Three Great Secret Realms or other major forces. They are geniuses who are prepared to be sent to the five major forces through the Strongest Battle or other channels.

It's understandable if a few die during the trials, but if they're all wiped out, the higher-ups of the Xuanshang Universe Country will likely be furious.

Ignoring the horrified looks of the trial participants, Jiang Yao was about to leave when he suddenly stopped and looked at the entrance to the Inheritance Tower leading to the 31st floor.

A figure with bloodshot eyes, covered in scales, and a single horn on its head appeared at the entrance to the 31st floor.
