Next.
The old man stared wide-eyed as Xiao Hei and the skeletons collided repeatedly.
At first, the skeleton was able to suppress Xiao Hei, relying on its cultivation level and two Realm God Realm weapons.
But... even though it was injured, Xiao Hei still charged towards the corpses without fear of death.
Moreover, those hideous wounds heal very quickly.
Holy Devil Bloodline?
This really startled the old man.
As Xiao Hei fought more and more fiercely, the cracks on the skeleton increased.
Then, Xiao Hei used the Nine Heavens Devil Halberd to completely destroy the corpse.
The old man said, "... Your halberd is clearly more than one level higher than mine, why do you still want it so much?"
Xiao Hei, panting heavily, picked up the halberd and gauntlets while tending to his wounds, chuckling, "So, senior, you admit these are yours?"
Didn't you just deny it to the death?
Old man. "..."
Then it disappeared.
He might get so angry he'd die if he stayed any longer.
Thinking about it, that sword cultivator was the same way... even though he already had that ancient longsword...
Suddenly, the old man froze.
Could that swordsman be from the same sect as them?
Hahaha.
The old man chuckled dryly a few times and said to himself, "That's probably impossible... How could the same master possibly train so many disciples who follow different paths?"
After the old man disappeared, Xiao Hei used his communication jade pendant to send a message to his fellow disciples about what had happened.
Only then did he look at the plaque above the palace.
Hegemonic Enterprise Hall.
They're not the same...
However, Xiao Hei didn't think too much about it and went straight into the palace.
At the same time, Hong Ying and Xiao Shitou, like Xiao Hei, entered the Hegemonic Enterprise Hall.
Ning Chenxin, Shi Sheng, Fang Qiong, and Mo Yu entered the Good Water Hall just like Ye Qiubai.
Mu Wan'er, on the other hand, entered the Heaven-Scheming Hall, just like Mu Fusheng.
After obtaining this information, Mu Fusheng deduced the following.
The Good Water Hall is Law Treasure obtained from the Crimson Earth through honesty and sincerity.
The Hegemonic Enterprise Hall, on the other hand, obtained all the Law Treasure directly through sheer strength.
The Heaven-Scheming Hall... must have obtained all the Law Treasure through cunning.
As for Xu Yeming...
Xu Yeming was currently staring at the old man.
The old man, holding a paintbrush and a pair of boots shimmering with azure light, said, "No, I just want you to say which Law Treasure is yours. Do you, a junior, need to argue with an old man like me?"
Most of the others have already successfully advanced to the next level.
As a result, Xu Yeming...
It's still stuck here.
Because... Xu Yeming had already peeked at the answer beforehand, and for every sentence the old man spoke, Xu Yeming would retort.
The stalemate continues until now, and we still haven't entered the palace.
The old man was almost driven mad by Xu Yeming's taunts!
If it weren't for the fact that his remnant soul needed to maintain its remaining divine power to keep him alive, the old man would have fought Xu Yeming to the death!
Xu Yeming pouted and said, "What are you arguing about? It's clearly you, senior, who are being disrespectful to your elders. These are all yours, yet you insist on making me choose."
Disrespectful to elders...
Damn it!
The old man took a deep breath and thought to himself.
"Ice has stood still for millennia, all things remain undisturbed, the heart should be calm... Do not hold grudges against the younger generation, do not hold grudges against the younger generation..."
I had to silently recite the Heart-Calming Mantra once before I calmed down.
However, Xu Yeming's next words broke the old man's defenses.
"Oh, senior, please don't test me. I've already seen the answers to these questions beforehand, so there's no point in testing me anymore! Just skip this part."
Listening to Xu Yeming's teasing words.
The old man was stunned. "No... what? The answer was already known in advance?"
"Yes." Xu Yeming nodded. "Didn't you put me through some tests that were different from those for other cultivators? Those were my senior brothers and sisters. They've already explained the testing process to me in detail."
"Oh, not a single detail has been overlooked."
The old man's vision went black, and he almost collapsed.
"That talisman..."
"He's my sixth senior brother."
"Body cultivation..."
"He's my fourth senior brother."
"And that one..."
Xu Yeming interrupted, "Sword cultivators, empresses, Confucian Alchemist, formation Puppet Master, the Dao of Stars, the Dao of Space..."
"Those are my senior brothers and sisters. Is there any other question, senior?"
After listening.
The old man was stunned.
So these cultivators, who are different from the previous ones, all come from the same sect?!
And we already know the answer to the test, so what the hell am I doing here, acting like a clown for half the day?!
"So you were just playing a trick on me?" the old man glared angrily.
Xu Yeming waved his hand and said, "It was you who played a trick on me first, senior."
"However, if you value your reputation, then please forget what happened before and test me again?"
At this point, Xu Yeming swore, "I promise I won't do anything reckless!"
The old man's brow twitched.
"You promise not to do anything reckless?"
"I promise!"
The old man took a deep breath, smiled kindly again, and asked, "Which of these two Law Treasure did you drop?"
Xu Yeming suddenly pointed to the palace archway and exclaimed in alarm, "Senior, why is the door open!"
"Huh? How is that possible?"
As he spoke, the old man turned his head back.
Then I felt a tremor in my hands, and both Law Treasure fell to the ground.
And then...
Xu Yeming picked it up and threw it directly into the crevice.
The old man, stunned, asked, "What does this mean?"
Xu Yeming shrugged and spread his hands, saying, "Senior, I dropped both of these Law Treasure, so please go and retrieve them for me."
Old man. "Damn it..."
Are they using this kind of tactic?
And you want him to retrieve it?
The old man's lingering soul began to show signs of burning.
Seeing this, Xu Yeming quickly advised, "No, senior, doing this will only cause your soul to be scattered. If you want to live a few more years, don't burn your divine soul."
The old man pinched the philtrum.
He flicked his wrist.
He dragged the two Law Treasure back and tossed them to Xu Yeming before disappearing.
This is outrageous!
A group of people from his sect were bullying him, an old man with a remnant soul.
Do you even understand the concept of respecting the elderly and caring for the young?
That's absolutely outrageous!
If this sect existed millions of years ago, the old man would have wiped them out immediately!
But...
Thinking that the other party possessed a sound transmission jade pendant capable of breaking through isolation formations and traversing distances of tens of thousands of miles.
Moreover, he has made achievements in various fields.
Their master... seems a bit dangerous to offend...
In an instant.
After calming down, the old man realized what had happened and frowned as he pondered.
Is it possible for such a person to still exist in this era?
Could it be from outside?
That's all.
Xu Yeming also stepped into the Heaven-Scheming Hall.
In this stage, virtually no one is eliminated.
However, the methods they used were all quite conventional, unlike those of Xu Yeming and his group...
