Chapter 34: The Fourth Star Gate, Son of Heaven!

~10 min read 1,998 words

Ao Yin looked at the Test Stele in disbelief, "No way, I'm only level five?"

Seeing this, Ao Wushuang's brows furrowed tightly!

"Yin'er's talent is ranked in the top ten in the history of the Dragon-man Clan; when he tested his aptitude with the clan's talent stone, he was only slightly inferior to me! Even he only has level five talent and can only enter the Third Starry Sky Gate?"

"I wonder how many levels I can make this stele light up?"

While thinking this, Ao Wushuang stepped forward and placed his hand on the Test Stele!

With a slight low hum, the Test Stele began to react, but the light gradually dimmed, and in the end, it actually stopped at the level four position, flickering slightly!

Two characters emerged on the stele...

"Average!"

At the same time, a sonorous voice sounded, lacking enthusiasm: "Talent is average, barely able to enter the Third Starry Sky Gate!"

Ao Wushuang's eyes widened instantly, staring at the stele in disbelief, "I am actually only average? But I clearly have better cultivation talent than Yin'er!"

Historically, Ao Wushuang's talent had always been better, but now that he had received this "average" evaluation from the Star Gate, he was completely stunned!

"Hahaha, Father, you are too pathetic, even worse than me! Did you fake your results in the past??"

Ao Yin covered his mouth, unable to stop giggling.

Upon hearing this, Ao Wushuang's face turned from green to white, and he could not find words to say!

Boom, boom, boom!

Just then, the Third Starry Sky Gate shone brightly, quickly sucking Ao Yin and Ao Wushuang inside!

At the same time, Lin Potian keenly noticed that there were many blue lights surrounding Ao Yin!

And although Ao Wushuang had them too, there were significantly fewer!

Seeing this, Lin Potian did not rush to place his hand on the Test Stele, but stroked his chin in thought.

He raised his hand, gathered the surrounding blue lights, and looked over with his eyes flashing with brilliance!

He saw that each blue light contained a significant amount of Star Power; they were like tiny, brilliant stars, gently leaping between Lin Potian's palms!

"This is actually Star Power! Could it be?"

Lin Potian recognized what the blue lights were at a glance, and at the same time, his heart stirred as he had a bold guess!

He whispered to himself: "Could it be that this Test Stele does not primarily test cultivation talent, but rather one's affinity for and quantity of Star Power?"

To verify his idea, Lin Potian took out the Heaven-Connecting Token.

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao?"

A voice immediately came from the Heaven-Connecting Token: "I will not tell you any information; opportunities are all about fate! If you have the fate, then it is naturally yours!"

Lin Potian's mouth twitched, and he directly dismissed the idea of getting clues from the artifact spirit!

He muttered to himself: "Knowing but not saying, just like that Holy Emperor, both love being riddle-mongers!"

"Forget it, I will find out by trying it myself!"

He put away the Heaven-Connecting Token and raised his hand in a beckoning gesture!

Boom, boom, boom!

A strong attractive force suddenly erupted from Lin Potian's body, and countless amounts of Star Power crossed the barriers of space and time, surging toward him like a tide!

He already cultivated the Heavenly Dao of Stars, so attracting this ownerless Star Power was naturally easy for him!

To be precise, the reason Lin Potian was able to become the Strongest Great Emperor was because he had mastered almost half of the 18,000 Small Dao of the Zhutian Wanjie!

He had dabbled in others as well, it was just a matter of the degree of proficiency!

The Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus was born with an incomparable affinity for Dao Law!

And Lin Potian...

Was exactly an Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus!

After reaching the Great Emperor realm, what one compares is the degree of mastery of Dao Law!

With the same cultivation realm, the more Dao Law one masters, the stronger one naturally is!

However, an Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus is hard to come by in a million years; as far as Lin Potian knew, only the Forbidden Senior was a past Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus!

And in the current age, he, Lin Potian, was the only one!

But now, the descendant Lin Feng had a wisp of his origin in his body, perhaps there was hope for him to advance from an Innate Sacred Body to an Innate Holy Body Dao Fetus!

But that was only hope, and that is a story for another time, so I will not mention it for now.

Boom, boom, boom!

Countless amounts of Star Power intertwined and collided in the air, eventually converging into streaks of brilliant Star Galaxy, circling around Lin Potian!

Streaks of Star Power churned within Lin Potian's body, and his whole body shone with immense light, dazzling to the extreme!

"Time to test, I wonder if I am right?"

Without hesitation, Lin Potian stepped forward and pressed his hand onto the Test Stele!

Almost instantly, all nine levels of the Test Stele lit up, a blue pillar of light shot straight into the clouds, and various visions appeared one after another!

In the center of the stele, a gray star was lit up, blooming with a dazzling light!

On the surface of the stele, gorgeous Runes flowed!

In the distance, the galaxy hung upside down, stars fell, and there was the sight of ten thousand stars bowing to their ancestor, brilliant and eye-catching!

Four characters emerged on the stele!

"Son of Heaven!"

Seeing this, Lin Potian could not hide the joy on his face, secretly thinking it was indeed so!

He had bet correctly!

This Test Stele testing cultivation aptitude was only a part of it, and the most important thing was testing the degree of mastery over Star Power!

Lin Potian shook his head and gave a dry laugh, "I did take a bit of a shortcut; if I had been the first to go up, I fear I would not have been able to achieve the effect of all nine levels lighting up!"

He paused, looking at the stone tablet, and said thoughtfully, "Is this inheritance ultimately the Forbidden Senior's? Or that of his enemy?"

The next second, a fourth door actually emerged from the depths of the void!

A towering figure appeared at the same time!

With his back to Lin Potian, a powerful voice filled with a hint of satisfaction came out: "Lin Potian, you have done very well! Enter this fourth door; both my inheritance and the inheritance of my enemy are within it!"

Lin Potian's breathing quickened, but he was immediately stunned!

The Forbidden Senior actually knew his name??

"Senior, why do you know my name?"

Lin Potian spoke with a trembling voice, a terrifying thought uncontrollably rising in his heart!

The voice came out faintly: "In the past, the present, and the future, I exist; I know everything and understand everything! Even if the universe collapses, I am eternal in a single thought!"

Upon receiving the reply, Lin Potian completely lost his composure and gasped in horror: "Then... are you, are you still alive?"

"What do you think? Hehe, time no longer has any meaning to me!"

The answer was ambiguous, but Lin Potian understood it.

He had truly always believed that the Forbidden Senior had long since fallen!

He never expected it, truly never expected it!

What kind of unattainable mountain was that realm, exactly?

To actually make time lose its meaning?

And could he himself reach such a realm?

His Adam's apple moved slightly, and just as Lin Potian was about to speak to ask many of his doubts, the towering figure gently raised a hand...

Lin Potian discovered in horror that he could no longer make a sound!

"You are the person I have chosen. When you reach or approach my realm, you will naturally understand! Knowing too much now will only cause you harm."

Immediately, he sighed softly: "The Zhutian Wanjie is about to change! The rats in the shadows are about to come out again!"

Lin Potian was anxious, yet unable to speak!

He kept complaining in his heart, "Why are they all riddle-mongers!"

Rats in the shadows?

Could the Forbidden Senior be referring to the Yiyu?

But hadn't the Yiyu been jumping around all this time?

Was playing dumb really that comfortable?

Without explaining things clearly, Lin Potian was truly defeated!

"That is all for now, go in and accept the inheritance!"

The towering man snapped his fingers, and the fourth great door in the void opened instantly!

It erupted with a terrifying suction force, pulling Lin Potian into it!

The towering figure sat cross-legged in the void, his face shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see clearly.

This was also just an avatar, not his true self.

Just as he was about to dissipate, his mind stirred, sensing something; a smile appeared on the face shrouded in mist, and his lips moved:

"There are quite a few variables in this generation. Two more little ones have come here. Let's see their... realm. Hmm? What! They are only in the Bitter Sea and Four Extremes??"

The smile froze immediately, and he turned to look in one direction!

Following the towering man's gaze, one could see an illusory-looking youth nearby pouring all his cultivation into a young girl!

The girl was frantically swinging an Earth Shovel, digging the soil with great effort!

Only a few hundred meters away, she would be able to dig right here to the God Tomb!

"Xiaoyue, you really are my ancestor! How could you dare to do this? You just crossed the Bitter Sea to become a cultivator, and you dared to go rob a sect that possesses the Quasi-Saint Realm?"

"If the Old Ancestor hadn't left three strands of Imperial Light on you for protection, and one of them hadn't been used to block the divine ability attack of that Quasi-Saint powerhouse, plus me bringing you to escape in time, I fear both of us would have died there!"

A helpless youth's voice came out faintly.

The voice... was actually Lin Feng!

And this girl, unsurprisingly, was Ji Xiaoyue!

Ji Xiaoyue was indifferent and said casually: "Lin Feng, they say wealth is sought in danger; just tell me if the harvest this time was satisfying or not! I didn't expect Master's Imperial Light to be so useful; next time we must pull off a bigger job!"

Lin Feng gave a bitter, speechless smile and hurriedly advised: "But this is really too dangerous; you are only in the Bitter Sea Realm! If you had any accident, I..."

Ji Xiaoyue stopped her shovel, her pretty face blushing: "If I had an accident, what would you do? Are you very afraid of me having an accident?"

After saying this, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Lin Feng, fearing that Lin Feng would despise her for being just a tiny cultivator who had only just reached the Bitter Sea Realm, and despise her for being a person from the lower realms.

Looking back at Lin Feng, he was a heaven-gifted talent who came from a great family in the Zhutian Wanjie!

Furthermore, Lin Feng was handsome, gentle, and refined, exuding his own unique charm in every gesture.

A vague, indescribable feeling had long since sprouted in Ji Xiaoyue's heart.

One might ask, which young girl does not dream of love?

Especially since Lin Feng's appearance was truly not bad!

"If you had an accident, I wouldn't know how to face the Old Ancestor in the future! The Old Ancestor gave strict orders for me to protect you well, so you cannot have any accidents!"

Lin Feng finished speaking quickly and turned his head to the side, fearing that Ji Xiaoyue would discover his abnormality!

He had actually... blushed!
