After leaping into the valley, Su Lianxin looked up and realized that there were already quite a few people there.
In the valley, many people gathered here. Upon hearing the voices of the approaching people, few turned around to look. Most of them gathered in front of a stone wall, and no one looked back.
Seeing this, Su Lianxin sheathed her sword, stepped forward, and looked over as well.
Inside the valley, there were nine walls, all polished to an extremely smooth finish. A huge, illusory figure sat cross-legged on one of them, eyes closed, like a guardian of the stone walls. The murmurs below prevented the illusory figure from opening its eyes and speaking.
Beneath the illusory figure, every stone wall was covered with various complex and mysterious patterns.
Above the intricate patterns are the visible shadows of characters.
"I am Cang Xuan, and I have passed away here, unaware of the passage of time. I was only half a step away from becoming emperor, but alas, I was born at the wrong time and died in the Northwest. I have left this fortuitous opportunity to ensure the continuation of my legacy."
"Those who come here are destined to meet; all have gathered here. If you wish to seize this fortuitous opportunity, only those with extraordinary talent will suffice."
"This Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall my most prized possession in my lifetime. You may use any means necessary to activate it."
"This time, cultivation level will not be considered; only aptitude will be taken into account. Activating one dragon wall is ordinary, two dragon walls prove your talent is extraordinary, three dragon walls signify a prodigy, and four dragon walls qualify you for a fortuitous opportunity opportunity..."
The words on the stone wall astonished everyone, but also ignited a burning passion within them.
No one expected that this fortuitous opportunity would come from a Half-Step Thearch Realm!
Even Su Lianxin couldn't help but breathe rapidly, her beautiful eyes fixed on the shimmering stone wall, not even blinking.
It should be noted that there has never been a single Thearch Realm in the entire Profound Domain.
This senior is only half a step away from becoming an emperor, so the fortuitous opportunity he holds... must be related to the Thearch Realm?!
In the Profound Domain, anything related to the word "Emperor" is an extremely terrifying existence, and no one understands this better than Su Lianxin, who has cultivated the Azure Emperor Scripture.
She concealed the deep meaning in her eyes, which instead turned into determination.
She was determined to seize the fortuitous opportunity within the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall!
Even before Su Lianxin entered the valley, some people had already tried to activate the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall, using all their methods and skills to unleash dazzling attacks on the surrounding stone walls.
However, even though their cultivation had reached the King Realm, the owner of this fortuitous opportunity had already said that those who came here would be judged solely on their talent, regardless of their cultivation level.
No matter how amazing their attacks are, how shocking and unbelievable their moves are, if they lack talent, they simply won't succeed.
Most people's attacks only cause ripples on the stone walls. Occasionally, a few can activate one or two stone walls, but they are far from meeting the conditions to activate all four dragon walls, let alone qualify for the opportunity to inherit the fortuitous opportunity.
Many people could only look at the wall with envy and sigh.
"This Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall is truly profound. Using one's own preferred methods to unleash its power seems to reveal the limits of one's talent."
"With limited natural talent, no matter how strong one is, one cannot awaken this dragon wall."
"Activating the four dragon walls would probably require more than just the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, or even the Mystic Ranking..."
Many people fell silent. Although they couldn't activate the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall no matter what they did, they didn't leave. Instead, they stared at the stone wall with a hint of resentment in their eyes.
Willing?
How could they possibly accept this!
The fortuitous opportunity Half-Emperor was right before their eyes, yet they were powerless to seize it. Who could willingly accept such a fate?
No matter what, these people are among the top geniuses in their own sects.
But once they arrived here, they didn't even have the qualifications to fortuitous opportunity!
Are you willing to accept this!?
Oh...
The situation was deadlocked and difficult to resolve. Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what to do, staring at the stone wall.
Until... a young man walked out.
He held a bright golden spear, and his body exuded a faint aura of bloodlust. With his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, he could be described as a young hero, but the arrogance on his face somewhat marred his appearance.
But those who come here don't seem to care much about appearances.
Everyone instinctively looked at him, only to see the young man stride forward, raise his spear, and deliver a sweeping blow.
A terrifying Gang Qi spread out along the fan-shaped path he swept towards the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall.
boom!
The powerful Gang Qi slammed into the stone wall, instantly illuminating the patterns on the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall.
One...
Two...
Three!
Instantly, all five stone walls were activated, their patterns seemingly coming back to life, flowing with a breathtaking honey-gold hue.
The entire valley seemed to come alive again in that instant, and the golden halo shone into the eyes of the onlookers, drawing their attention.
Everyone gasped in surprise, their eyes wide with astonishment.
"Of the five Dragon Walls, someone has obtained a spot to inherit the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall!"
Who is this person? Does anyone know him? Does anyone know his background?!
"Incredible! It's already difficult for us to activate one or two Dragon Walls, yet this person has managed to activate a full five. Could he be a top genius on the ranking list?"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, their gazes towards the young man now filled with awe and envy.
The five stone walls were activated, revealing that this young man, despite his young age, possessed such terrifying talent.
It's truly enviable!
Some people were so angry they were itching to get their hands on the Emperor's legacy that they regretted not being able to activate the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall talent.
As soon as Su Lianxin entered the valley, she glanced at the spear in the young man's hand and didn't linger.
She didn't recognize the young man, nor was she astonished by his talent; it was just a casual glance.
However, Chen Xiao, who had been watching her the whole time, noticed Su Lianxin's gaze and, seeing this, immediately began to introduce her to Su Lianxin.
"Senior sister, this person's name is Huang Zhen. He is the seventeenth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, and his preferred weapon is a spear."
"However, I didn't expect that with his talent, he could only activate five Dragon Walls. It seems that the fortuitous opportunity of this Half-Step Great Emperor is indeed extraordinary."
Despite the seemingly complicated situation, Chen Xiao showed no sign of worry; instead, his smile grew even wider.
A confident smile appeared on his face.
He casually brushed a few stray hairs from his brow, then grinned and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Su Lianxin.
"But when it comes to talent, I've never been afraid of anyone."
"This Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall belongs to our Sword Pavilion, and to me Chen Xiao!"
"Senior sister, wait for me a moment, I'll be right back!"
With a smile, Chen Xiao took a step forward and landed in front of the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall, his eyes gleaming brightly.
His heroic rescue earlier failed to win over his senior sister's heart, but this time it's different.
The Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall is a wonderful thing!
He was determined to showcase his talent and make his senior sister understand that he, her junior brother, was undoubtedly the future hope of the Sword Pavilion.
The thought of Su Lianxin's adoring gaze filled Chen Xiao with uncontrollable excitement. He immediately drew his weapon, bypassed the figure in front of him, and focused solely on the Nine-Bend Coiling Dragon Wall.
Let him show off his skills!
Let these people understand what it truly means to be a chosen one!
