Elder Qiu is certainly qualified to say that.
Most of them were Great Emperor, and he himself was about to advance to become Ancient Emperor. Feng Yong was here, and although his strength was indeed the lowest, he was still at the Thearch Realm Third Layer.
For someone like Lin Xuan, who has just entered the Thearch Realm, to participate is practically courting death!
On the surface, Elder Qiu's words indicated concern for Lin Xuan's death, but everyone could tell that he simply didn't want to take on such a burden.
Moreover, with one more person, there will be one more fortuitous opportunity to be shared.
None of them were willing to give up their share.
As they spoke, one of them bluntly said, " Feng Yong, our share has already been agreed upon. If you bring him along, then his share will have to be taken from yours!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Yong almost laughed out of anger.
What was agreed upon?
Who told them this beforehand?
She simply let go, coldly saying, "Only I know the path; nothing you say today will make a difference."
"Besides, I didn't agree to take only one!"
"We agreed on 20% each, but you changed your minds first, so don't blame me for being ruthless."
As she spoke, a resolute ruthlessness appeared on her face.
"Now, the jade token is in my hands. If you insist on this and remain obsessed, then I will destroy the jade token right now, and no one will be able to obtain the fortuitous opportunity within!"
The expressions on the faces of the others immediately turned ugly.
They never expected that Feng Yong would use the jade map as leverage.
But that's precisely what they're afraid of!
The two sides were immediately locked in a stalemate.
Finally, it was Elder Qiu who slowly spoke.
"Alright, we didn't say we disagreed. Since this young friend is already here, let's go in together."
"However, when it comes to dividing the spoils, it all comes down to who contributed the most; only those who did the most work will get the largest share."
The others exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
"That's right, Elder Qiu is correct."
I agree.
I agree.
Feng Yong hesitated for a moment, looking at Lin Xuan beside her, unsure whether she should agree.
Lin Xuan didn't seem to care and simply nodded.
Feng Yong composed himself and nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I have no objection."
A smile appeared on Elder Qiu's face.
He is the strongest person here.
This distribution system is also the most advantageous for him.
Therefore, he gently stroked his white beard and spoke softly.
"Now that we've reached an agreement, young friend Feng, please use the token and jade diagram to activate this ancient formation."
Now that things have come to this, and everything has been agreed upon, Feng Yong took a deep breath and took a few steps forward.
She ignored the others, raised her hand and took out the jade map. Feeling the greedy eyes of the others behind her, she sneered inwardly, slowly placed the jade map on it, and activated the formation.
The moment the formation shattered and was activated, they all felt a beam of spiritual light sweep across them, causing them to instinctively straighten their backs, sharpen their guard, and dare not let their guard down.
Everyone looked very serious.
Feng Yong quickly added, "Be careful. There are countless Sword Qi here. You could get injured if you're not careful. Moreover, the Sword Qi come from all directions, and no one can dodge them."
Upon hearing this, everyone tensed up and began to break through the foremost sword formation step by step.
As Feng Yong said, the Sword Qi was surging, and the Sword Qi of this ancient sword formation came from all directions, making it impossible to defend against.
Even Elder Qiu, who had the highest cultivation level, suffered some injuries after breaking through the formation.
Not to mention the others, all of whom were injured and looked somewhat disheveled. Although their injuries differed, the amount of energy they had expended was the same.
Only Lin Xuan strolled along behind, looking relaxed and seemingly unaffected.
The young man from the Xiang Household sneered coldly, "Sure enough, some people are different when they hide in the back, unlike us who risk our lives in the front."
The woman scoffed, "What's the point of saying all this? Anyway, we've taken the majority. If anyone wants to get a share of the fortuitous opportunity effortlessly, humph, wishful thinking!"
Lin Xuan ignored it.
He didn't actually draw his One Sword, but he didn't rely solely on others to get through it.
While passing through this ancient sword formation, he had already silently unleashed his Sword Domain.
Under the influence of the Sword Domain, he seemed to transform into a wisp of Sword Qi, merging into it.
Can Sword Qi attack Sword Qi?
joke!
As he strolled leisurely, he made some discoveries that piqued his curiosity.
The one who sets up the formation is absolutely Saint Realm.
However, this sword formation, though seemingly treacherous, actually posed no real murderous intent.
Yes, it's just a test.
These people couldn't handle it for two reasons: firstly, their cultivation level was too low, and secondly, their Sword Dao was insufficient.
Lin Xuan ignored him and remained silent. The others also found it pointless to talk to him, muttered a few words to themselves, swallowed pills to recover from their injuries, and continued on their way.
After the sword formation comes the maze formation.
The maze formation scattered everyone, shrouded in mist, making it impossible to use their Divine Sense or discern the direction of others; they could only rely on their understanding of the formation to get through.
This is not difficult for Lin Xuan.
Although he wasn't a master of formations, he wasn't completely ignorant of them either.
After the illusion dissipated, the group reunited and found that the others were only an arm's length away from them.
After that, there's an illusion array.
The Bronze Men Formation.
The Inquiry Formation...
Various formations test Sword Dao, formation skills, composure, and combat prowess...
Everyone who could be tested was thoroughly tested.
The group escaped unscathed, making their way through layer after layer of formations, though they were not in any life-threatening danger.
At this moment, Feng Yong's red robes had several holes burned in them, Elder Qiu's beard was partially singed, and the others were also in a mess.
Only Lin Xuan looked clean and neat, as if he hadn't done any work.
But they had no time to mock Lin Xuan.
The reason was that what stood before them was a massive bronze door, its surface covered in rust, the bluish-green rust revealing its antiquity, while the powerful aura emanating from behind it was even more captivating.
only...
The Wang Household woman, who was skilled in formations, wiped the sweat from her forehead, stepped forward to investigate, and then spoke with certainty.
"This is the final gate to this inheritance. We have already broken through all the surrounding formations. All that remains is for us to use our Spiritual Power to break open this bronze gate."
She was still shaken. If the formations here hadn't been so ancient and mostly damaged, she would never have been able to break them.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and moved closer to the bronze door.
The bronze door was enormous, and even with several people standing side by side, there was still room to move. No one was in the mood for sarcasm; instead, they all placed their palms on the door, forcing out their Spiritual Power and channeling it into it.
Lin Xuan didn't move.
He calmly observed their actions and slowly shook his head.
The Spiritual Power required to open this bronze door is comparable to that of the Saint Realm; there is absolutely no way they could open it with just a few people.
And the outcome was as he expected.
No matter how hard they tried, after a long while, the bronze gate showed no sign of opening; not even a crack was pushed open.
All that effort turned out to be for nothing!
Elder Qiu and the others looked quite grim.
Their Spiritual Power was completely depleted, and they had even run out of pills to replenish Spiritual Power, yet they still couldn't open the bronze door.
The Vast Sea Secret Realm only lasts for one month.
Should we just give up now?
But... I'm not willing to accept this!
They've all made it to the very end!
The group stared at the bronze door, their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.
No matter how hard I try, I can't let it go.
They could only feel resentful, unwilling, yet helpless.
After all, they really had no other choice.
Forced to break open?
Don't even think about it!
They had considered this idea before, but the bronze door, some kind of treasure, remained unmoved even when they exerted all their Spiritual Power.
It would be virtually impossible for them to forcefully break through it using their strength alone.
But leaving like this is truly something I'm unwilling to do.
Just then, they heard a calm, indifferent voice behind them.
"Move aside, let me try."
