Chapter 471: Demigod's Test, Master Zhao Who Wants to Progress Too Much

~31 min read 6,164 words

"Grand Minister of Agriculture, according to the speculation of the Heavenly Master Mansion, the three cave abodes discovered so far are two martial artist cave abodes and one musician inheritance cave abode."

Zhao Xing came to Qitian Mountain and first met with Ji Si and Jing Yue.

Since taking over the development of the Yanxing Ancient Road, the two had been staying in the Yanxing Corridor, and most of the time, they followed Zhao Xing. Either following the Primordial Clone or following the main body.

The three cave abodes opened by the War God Hall were also requested by the Heavenly Master Mansion to perform divination and calculate the relevant information of the cave abodes.

It might be difficult to calculate exactly what level they were in their lifetime or what treasures they had, but it was very simple to know what professional path the owners took in their lifetime.

Occupational information is also very important for exploring cave dwelling secret realms. If one is not clear about this and throws a martial artist into a musician's cave dwelling to explore, it is not only a waste of effort but could also cost lives.

"There is actually a musician's cave abode; that's rare."

Zhao Xing became interested; martial artist demigods of the Desolate Domain Era were not rare, but musician demigods were very rare.

Among the more than three thousand inheritance mansions, the vast majority were martial artist cave abodes; musicians and dancers were very few.

"Grand Minister of Agriculture, the War God Hall has been urging you for several years to send people there quickly," Ji Si said. "The quota must be determined as soon as possible."

"Ji Si, what do you suggest?" Zhao Xing asked.

"The War God Hall is selling exploration quotas internally; the admission ticket is a top-grade Reincarnation Dao weapon, limited to fifty, and the other thirty have already been allocated by Mengwu."

"We can follow suit here," Ji Si said. "If none of the partners want to go, we can sell the quota."

Zhao Xing nodded; back then, Emperor Wudu and Emperor Mengwu discussed that for the seven demigod cave abodes, the exploration quota was tentatively set at 100.

Two-eight split, War God Hall eight, and his side two. Increase the quota depending on the situation, but this ratio would not change.

The first batch of three cave abodes had all broken through the outer cross-domain boundary ship array, just waiting for people to go in and accept the inheritance test; there was no danger or trouble in between.

Zhao Xing's side got 20 quotas, and the War God Hall had eighty; people there allocated some and sold some, and forty had already been used, leaving half in hand for backup.

As long as Zhao Xing's side was in place, they could start exploring and excavating at any time.

"To explore a cave abode, at least having Emperor-level strength is safe; those who can afford the quota are basically Emperor-level."

"Don't even think about the partners; those qualified to come are my master, Zuo Qiyu, Emperor Hongshan, and Lord Lushan. However, two of them are in seclusion and two are not interested, so let's sell half of the quota first."

"Good, I will contact them immediately." Ji Si nodded.

Selling the quota, according to the contract, was also prioritized to be sold to the War God Hall.

The War God Hall was full of experts and wealthy; when Ji Si went to contact them, ten quotas were snatched up within three days, and some even wanted more, but Zhao Xing ignored them all.

If it turned out that the other four cave abodes had agricultural official professions or spiritual-type cave abode inheritances, assuming the quota was not expanded, he had to keep this half for his own people.

"I want to take one quota myself, so there are nine left." Zhao Xing discussed with Ji Si the principles for handling the remaining nine quotas. "If these nine quotas are used by our own people, then use them; if our own people don't need them, then only exchange for favors, not sell for money."

"Ji Si, you have also reached the Reincarnation Realm, right?"

"By luck, I broke through one hundred and fifty years ago." Ji Si said modestly.

"Assuming there is a Fate Master cave abode, you take one." Zhao Xing said.

"Yes." Ji Si nodded, paused, and asked again: "Does the Grand Minister of Agriculture want to go in and take a look now?"

"Hmm, I want to go to the musician cave abode first to see," Zhao Xing said his plan.

Musician professions either don't show up, but the strong ones who do are outrageously strong, and usually very wealthy.

Maybe there is more than one demigod magic tool; if he could get one, it would be much more than selling tickets. Who would dislike having too much money?

Now that Zhao Xing had broken through to the Reincarnation Realm, the Primordial Clone had undergone another round of material replacement and had mastered the second type of seven-colored magic power, so he considered his self-preservation ability to be very strong.

Taking off from the Qitian Base, passing through the mountains, he arrived at the Qingyu Star Sector.

At this time, there were six monsters resembling Kun beasts swimming in the void in the Qingyu Star Sector; in fact, they were mechanical boundary ships sent by the War God Hall, the Kun Void Swimming Gods.

The Kun Void Swimming God was one of the Twelve Swimming God Weapons, one of the strongest god weapons in the mechanical god weapon series; when all twelve appeared, it was the power of a God-level entity.

Now only six had come, but that was enough to hold the scene, because it was controlled by Emperor Zifang, one of the weapon spirits of the Great Expansion God Weapon sub-body.

The Great Emperor was a mechanical master, and the most powerful professional system belonged to the mechanical master; no force could bypass the protection of the Kun Void Swimming God and slip in.

"Swish~~"

"Greetings, Emperor Zifang."

"Zhao Xing, the people from the War God Hall have been waiting for you for a long time, come in."

"Yes."

Zhao Xing stepped onto the back of a Kun Void Swimming God and entered a pure white cube.

The cube sank into the Dao Ancient Layer of the void along a texture on the back that resembled a canyon. Because the seven jade stone slabs containing the demigod mansions were all suspended in the Dao Ancient Layer.

The cube quickly descended into a spacious hall, with floor-to-ceiling windows directly in front, revealing the abstract outer scenery of the Dao Ancient Layer.

There were many seats around, and sixty-three people were already waiting.

"Swish, swish, swish~"

When Zhao Xing descended in Emperor Zifang's cube, all eyes were immediately fixed on him.

Not a single person was below the Emperor level, and everyone's aura was like an abyss or a prison; the invisible aura pressure intertwined, making Zhao Xing feel pressure in his heart.

"Zhao Xing, you came alone?" Emperor Mengwu, Emperor Moxu, and Emperor Xuanying's three crystal chairs were side by side. "Where are your master and the others?"

"Replying to Emperor Mengwu, the teacher has already gone into seclusion, and the others have important matters they cannot get away from, so I am fully responsible for the exploration matters," Zhao Xing said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Good, since you have arrived, let's begin." Emperor Mengwu looked at Emperor Moxu beside him.

Emperor Moxu, shrouded in black and white magic robes, opened the mechanical box, and a red light rushed toward the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The blurry, line-like scene outside immediately became clear, revealing three parallel jade-quality walls.

The surface of the cube walls had vortices of different colors rotating, and behind them seemed to contain a world.

"The outer space of the three cross-domain boundary ships, the twenty-seventh layer of the Dao Ancient Layer, has been solidified by me into a safe passage."

"Following this passage, you can enter the interior of the cross-domain boundary ships."

"The two on the left contain martial artist cave abodes, and the one on the right is a musician cave abode; this is the speculation of the Heavenly Master Mansion."

"More information is in this jade slip; everyone, check it yourselves, I won't repeat it."

Emperor Moxu waved his hand, and sixty-two jade slips flew in front of everyone.

"Many thanks, Brother Moxu, I will go first." Immediately, a burly man with light red eyebrows and hair, carrying two iron chain-like Dao weapons on his back, rushed into the passage.

Zhao Xing also had some impression of him; this person was named Emperor Chimei, a Qi-school martial artist in the War God Hall.

"Brother Mengwu, Brother Moxu, Brother Xuanying, I will also go first." Two more sword-path Emperors, carrying long swords on their backs, with upright postures and as dazzling as the sun, rushed into the passage.

Swish, swish, swish~~

Red lights disappeared from the hall one after another.

Everyone had been waiting for a long time, and now that they saw the passage open, more than half of the people left quickly.

"Zhao Xing, I heard you are also going; which cave abode do you plan to go to?" Emperor Mengwu asked lightly, playing with the ring on his finger.

"I want to go to that musician's cave abode and take a look."

"What a coincidence." Emperor Mengwu smiled. "Scholar Feng Chen, Emperor Fuzhi, and Emperor Qianyin also chose this place; you might as well go with them."

Zhao Xing's gaze fell beside Mengwu; among them, Emperor Qianyin was an Emperor in the War God Hall who practiced both dance and music.

Feng Chen was a scholar of the Six Realms of the Academy; he was no stranger to him. Emperor Fuzhi also came from the Academy.

Upon seeing Emperor Fuzhi, Zhao Xing's gaze fluctuated: "My strength is low, so I ask the three of you to take care of me."

Emperor Qianyin was a woman; she had an outstanding temperament, and among the Emperors, her temperament was also very unique, making it difficult for people to look away after one glance.

Emperor Qianyin knew that Zhao Xing's status in this cooperation was not low, and her attitude was quite good, smiling and responding to express her welcome.

Feng Chen was an old acquaintance; a scholar of the Six Realms was equivalent to the Emperor level, and he was the one who had taken him to treat the True Spirit Heavenly Poison and participated in the Yanxing Dharma Assembly from beginning to end.

Emperor Fuzhi's temperament was also very outstanding; his appearance was neutral, making it impossible to distinguish between male and female, but the beauty of the aura formed by the six breaths of the human body was even three points more outstanding than Emperor Qianyin's.

Emperor Fuzhi was also looking at Zhao Xing, with strong interest in his eyes.

"It's not a matter of taking care; maybe you will have to take care of me, I don't know how to fight," Feng Chen smiled.

"Agricultural Official Zhao, you don't have to be polite; if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have the opportunity to come here."

All three expressed their welcome, among whom Emperor Fuzhi showed extra enthusiasm different from the other two upon their first meeting.

Zhao Xing dealt with a few polite remarks, but his heart was muttering.

Because Emperor Fuzhi was a core figure in Bowei's God-Making Project; she, or rather he, had reached the final link of the God-Making Project.

In Zhao Xing's memory, Emperor Fuzhi and two other mysterious people entered the final stage and were qualified to receive the group empowerment of scholars.

However, after Bowei's God-Making Project failed, only Emperor Fuzhi was exposed, while the other two were missing.

Although Emperor Fuzhi belonged to the Academy force, he was not a scholar.

Next, the four of them walked into the safe passage together.

Zhao Xing secretly checked the other party's information with the panel.

【Name: Wu Fuzhi】

【Realm: Late Emperor level】

【True Spirit: Late Emperor level】

【Profession: Agricultural Official, Martial Artist, Priest, Fate Master, Physician, Mechanical Master, Beast Tamer, Musician, Dancer, Historical Scholar.】

【Magic Power Value: 801 units】

【Internal World: 7000 world-element units】

【Golden Body: 108, 00 poles; Seven-Fate Life Palace; Nine-Turn Zither Heart; Infinite Sword Gall; Eight-Turn Spirit Tablet; Immeasurable Swimming God Palace; Gestating Mother Core; Blue History River, Blue Bag Medical Book.】

【Reincarnation-level Secret Method: Shuo Wind Hundred River Array, Fate Tribulation Law, Eight-String Divine Skill, Universe Heavenly Sword Technique, Reincarnation Altar (Spirit Void Version), Beast Spirit Transformation, Taiyi Heavenly Poison Pill Law...】

【...】

【Status: Knowledge Mirror Image. Uses divine power to disguise, only displaying one or two professional cores and spells.】

"Damn, Bowei is much stronger in this life; Emperor Fuzhi is already at the late Emperor level, and has almost filled all professions."

Emperor Fuzhi possessed almost all professional cores, and even had the internal world of a Self-Nature School agricultural official!

The Academy was a holy land for the human race; almost everyone would leave a copy of their laws and theories to the Academy, planting Dao trees and writing books, passing them down for eternity. This was the place where the human race passed on the fire and preserved the seeds.

If it were in the previous life, all his spell skills would have to be 'Golden Legend' level, because the Eighth Dharma Realm of the Academy encompassed everything.

The reason Zhao Xing judged that Bowei was stronger than in the previous life was mainly because of the 'Status' in Emperor Fuzhi's last column.

【Knowledge Mirror Image】

The Academy had a divine object called the Knowledge Mirror; one of its abilities was to disguise a person's cultivation system.

If Zhao Xing didn't look at the panel, Emperor Fuzhi would just be an ordinary sword-path Emperor. The role he played was also just to protect Feng Chen, a scholar of the Six Realms.

Because Zhixin died and Bowei became the Great Elder, among the new generation of scholars in the Academy, there were no new Seven-Realm scholars, and Feng Chen was the most hopeful to step into this threshold. Some even said he would be another Eight-Realm scholar after Bowei.

"He wouldn't really succeed in this, would he?" Zhao Xing felt suspicious.

Bowei opened the Transmission Building in the Second Era of the Desolate Domain, which was much better than the starting point of opening the Transmission Building in the Third Era. Because entering the Third Era, the Desolate Domain deepened further, and many void rivers in the Xuanling Star Domain froze; the Third Era was also known as the beginning of the Ice Age. The cultivation environment was further deteriorated, and internal strife and external troubles were more serious.

Whether it was the cultivation environment, manpower, resources, or power, Bowei was much stronger than in the previous life.

In the trip to the Transmission Building, Bowei might have lost a lot of World Spirit Value, but he also had the experience of fighting against God-level entities.

"If he really succeeds, I don't know what kind of disaster it will cause... I must stay away from this person." Zhao Xing couldn't help but shudder in his heart.

Bowei opened the Transmission Building, absorbed power from it, and incorporated the Starry Sky Historians, announcing that from then on there would only be historical scholars, and the name on the panel changed accordingly.

Undoubtedly, Bowei was the child of the version; he still had to maintain awe.

Assuming Bowei really succeeded, what impact would it have?

Zhao Xing was full of worries, not even knowing when he had entered the cave abode.

Until a 'woo' sound, the environment changed significantly, and he discovered that the four of them had passed through the safe passage created by Emperor Moxu and arrived in another world.

"Hoo-woo~~"

The sky was gloomy, and the wind was howling, as if playing a funeral march, and Zhao Xing's mood sank involuntarily.

A snowflake drifted down from before his eyes; the snowflake suddenly brightened, and it seemed that a figure was dancing, but it disappeared in a flash.

Zhao Xing looked up at the sky and found that the moon was obscured by dark clouds, appearing and disappearing.

He, Feng Chen, Emperor Qianyin, and Emperor Fuzhi landed on a high mountain, surrounded by a desolate world.

"Agricultural Official Zhao, are you okay?" Feng Chen asked with concern; Zhao Xing had already achieved the achievement of planting Dao trees and writing books, so Feng Chen was closer to him.

"Many thanks to Elder Feng for your concern, I am fine, it's just that for some reason my mood is a bit low," Zhao Xing let out a breath. "I always feel that the sound of the wind is a bit sorrowful, like a funeral march."

"Heaven and Earth Feather Sound, its sound is deep and thin, symbolizing the return and storage of all things," Emperor Qianyin closed her eyes and felt it. "You are not wrong to say that; this world is indeed playing a funeral march, and it has been for a long time."

Feng Chen interjected, "My judgment is the same as Emperor Qianyin's; what we hear is the Feather Sound stage among the Five Divine Sounds, and it has lasted the longest."

"As the saying goes, the lingering sound of the feather lingers for three eras without ceasing; that is what the feather sound among the Five Divine Sound stages refers to."

"This is good news," Emperor Qianyin was very happy. "At least it hasn't deviated from the scope of our understanding."

"Not bad." Feng Chen also nodded.

Zhao Xing could understand what the two were saying; since he dared to come to the Music Mansion to explore, he had also done some homework.

The Five Divine Sounds mentioned by Feng Chen and Emperor Qianyin were Gong, Shang, Jue, Zhi, and Yu. They were also the five basic musical scales of musicians; the common saying "tone-deaf" refers to these five sounds.

The reason they were called the Five Divine Sound stages was because the five divine emperors in history—Emperor Rui, Emperor Yu, Emperor Luo, Emperor Zu, and Emperor Li—had traveled across the three void layers of the universe, collecting sounds from the Dao of the universe and mixing them together to form Dao musical notes.

The Dao itself is abstract, but after being concretized into sound, it could be understood by billions of people, and some people embarked on the path of cultivation.

The five sounds also derived the twelve laws, and all music was derived from the five sounds and twelve laws, used for cultivation as well as for sacrifice.

Accompanying them were the five great Dao divine artifacts: the Rui Divine Bell, the Yu Divine Zither, the Zu Divine Xun, the Luo Divine Drum, and the Li Divine Chopsticks, as well as twelve musical rhythm divine artifacts.

The reason Feng Chen and Emperor Qianyin were happy was that although the owner of this cave abode was of unknown origin, the musical rhythm played here still followed the Five Sound Dao, and it was quite orthodox, so it did not deviate from their scope of knowledge.

If they encountered something strange, it would be even more difficult to explore.

"The musical scale strengthens from south to north; if there is a cave abode, we should go north. Does Emperor Qianyin agree?" Feng Chen asked.

"Agreed." Emperor Qianyin nodded.

Zhao Xing had no opinion either, because the speculation report of the Heavenly Master Mansion also said so.

The four of them protected Feng Chen in the middle and flew slowly to the north.

The wind and snow strengthened one after another, the clouds were thicker, but the moon remained flickering, appearing constant.

Zhao Xing did not try to change the weather, because according to Feng Chen and Emperor Qianyin, unless the source of the five sounds was cut off, even if the dark clouds and wind and snow were temporarily driven away, they would quickly return to their original state.

In order to avoid encountering uncontrollable factors, it was better not to move them; anyway, everyone was not afraid of the environment here.

Flying at low altitude for about half a day, the heavy snow reached its limit, completely becoming a world of silver.

At this time, the harsh low-temperature environment alone could freeze many Lord-level entities to death.

Magic power was flowing away in large quantities, and Zhao Xing's magic power value dropped by about 0. units.

The road ahead was unknown, so he had to take out the Sun Star Lamp from his internal world.

The Sun Star Lamp was a mid-grade Reincarnation Dao weapon, and its only function was to drive away the cold.

Feng Chen and Emperor Qianyin both smiled slightly; Zhao Xing was the only one who could be so wealthy, and they were reluctant to use such treasures.

"In terms of wealth, Zhao Xing is probably the richest among the four of us; we are taking advantage of him," Emperor Qianyin joked.

"Hahaha, that's true, it's much warmer now." Feng Chen spat out a cold breath, and laughter came from the wind and snow.

After flying for another two and a half days, the heavy cold turned into light cold.

The snowflakes in the sky began to change shape, hanging in the sky like silk and threads, as if musical notes were floating.

The sound of the wind Zhao Xing heard also produced new changes from the single wooing sound. A long musical scale of 'mi' appeared.

"Heaven and Earth Jue Sound, vitality is bursting, wood element grows." Feng Chen carried a wine pot and listened intently, partly to ward off the cold, and partly out of habit.

"We will soon be able to see flowers, grass, and trees. Agricultural Official Zhao, you must look carefully; maybe you can discover some valuable native species. It can make up for the loss of your Sun Star Lamp."

The Sun Star Lamp in Zhao Xing's hand at this time had dimmed a lot. The grade of the mid-grade Reincarnation Dao weapon had also dropped to low-grade.

"If it's just an ordinary native species, there's no need to delay things." Zhao Xing smiled and put away the Sun Star Lamp; he didn't care about this little money now. He had enough Sun Star Lamps to throw one away after using it.

"I came this time mainly to broaden my horizons; getting treasures is secondary."

"If I see a cave abode, I probably won't pass the test of the cave abode owner, so I still have to rely on the three of you."

Zhao Xing expressed that he was not competing, and the atmosphere of the four-person group was also very good, except that Emperor Fuzhi kept chatting with him, asking about the treatment of the True Spirit Heavenly Poison and some things in the Academy. Emperor Fuzhi's curiosity about him was not ordinary.

Flying all the way north for about two months.

The earth indeed became vibrant, and the dark clouds and snowflakes gradually dissipated.

Zhao Xing saw many flowers, grass, and trees, and soon encountered a Lord-level native species blocking the way.

Swish~

Zhao Xing sacrificed the Seven-Domain True Spirit Bamboo.

"Chir, chir, chir~"

The True Spirit Bamboo's purple aura swayed, and a giant vine with a gear-like mouth in front was instantly shattered.

Zhao Xing split off a Primordial Clone to dig the soil on the spot.

He didn't care about those plant lives, but cared more about the soil.

"Judging the Earth Pulse Era from the soil, this ancient small world can be traced back to the early Triassic period."

"However, the power of the Earth Pulse is already very weak; this is probably the last Lord-level plant life."

Zhao Xing left a Primordial Clone to study, while the main body did not delay the journey and continued to walk forward with the three.

Soon, wisps of fire-red cloud gas appeared in the sky; they were also suspended in the sky like musical notes, the world became bright, and volcanoes and great rivers began to appear frequently, and the spiritual energy index also greatly improved.

"Zhi Sound lingering rhyme, fire element gradually grows, a large number of fire-element boundary stones appear here." Emperor Qianyin's eyes lit up.

Looking at the ground below, many boundary stone mineral veins appeared, directly exposed on the surface. There were quite a few, making them stop their steps.

"Agricultural Official Zhao, this work still requires your effort." Emperor Qianyin looked at Zhao Xing. Opening mountains and splitting earth, Emperor Qianyin could also do it.

But to dig out the mineral veins completely without damaging their quality, only an agricultural official could do it well.

"Leave it to me." Zhao Xing immediately landed. Earth Heart Splitting Earth Law combined with Disperse Law and Open Wall Law.

After a barrage of spells, a large number of boundary stone mineral veins automatically floated to the surface and were extracted by Zhao Xing.

"The whole operation is smooth and flowing, pleasing to the eye," Emperor Fuzhi praised. "If it were someone else, I'm afraid the earth would already be unrecognizable."

"As expected of Agricultural Official Zhao, who plants Dao trees and writes books, and can open mountains and establish sects." Emperor Qianyin was also very appreciative.

After staying for about a month, the boundary stones in the Hui Sound area were extracted clean.

Zhao Xing roughly estimated that these boundary stone mineral veins were worth about 60, 00 Xuanling ancient coins.

The four of them shared equally, each getting 15, 00; this item alone not only paid for the ticket but also made a profit. After all, the threshold for Emperor-level family wealth was only 10, 00 Xuanling ancient coins.

A top-grade Reincarnation Dao weapon was only worth about 5, 00 to 50, 00 Xuanling ancient coins.

Zhao Xing left a Primordial Clone here as usual, and the main body set off with the three.

Afterward, they passed through the Shang Sound Gold Line area; the terrain here became higher and higher, and life became relatively rare.

A large number of ancient buildings appeared, but they had already become ruins; one could only see from the broken walls that there had once been a glorious past. He still left a clone to study.

After the main body flew with the three for half a year, they finally arrived at the Gong Sound area.

"Gong is the head of the five sounds, the master of kings and commanders."

"Its sound is slow and gentle, dignified and solemn."

"We should have arrived at the place where the cave abode owner resided."

Zhao Xing looked up and saw musical notes all over the sky in front of him; they triggered phenomena such as wind, rain, thunder, and clouds, and there were even mountains floating in the sky.

However, at this time, these musical notes had no regularity, as if they had lost order, piled up in front in a disorderly manner.

They also emitted bursts of noise, making Zhao Xing unable to concentrate.

Seeing this, Feng Chen took out a talisman from his bosom and stuck it on Zhao Xing's chest.

The noise immediately decreased, and the feeling of annoyance quickly dissipated.

"Clang!"

A yellow bell appeared in Emperor Qianyin's hand, and she tapped it lightly.

The sound waves spread in a way visible to the naked eye, and Zhao Xing saw the musical notes floating in the sky in front being shaken away.

A passage was cleared by the bell sound, and soon a magnificent palace appeared in the sky; it was hung in the air by four silk threads resembling zither strings, one end connected to the base of the palace, and the other end disappearing into the void.

The palace seemed to be hung on a spider web, but it was also rotating.

Snowflakes drifted down, wind circled, and moonlight shone down; Zhao Xing saw a big tree on the east side of the palace, with heart-shaped leaves swaying in the wind, emitting billions of sounds.

A vine was planted on the south side, with branches swaying in the air, as if dancing.

Four black-edged red flowers were planted on the west side, but three of them had withered and fallen, and the remaining one was also closed.

A bare golden bamboo pole stood on the north side, as if its branches and leaves had been shaved off, and there were charred marks on it, as if it had been struck by lightning.

Zhao Xing's focus was on the plants, but the other three were on the palace itself.

Feng Chen read the couplet on the palace gate:

"Wind moans, snow weeps, a thousand strings tell of parting sorrow; moon hides, flowers wither, five laws bury residual sounds."

"Gong and Shang absolute resonance."

"Elder Feng, this couplet sounds ominous." Emperor Fuzhi narrowed his eyes.

Zhao Xing noticed that his palm was tucked under his sleeve, and then stretched out again; this was the habitual action of a Fate Master.

It seemed that Emperor Fuzhi was secretly deducing something.

"Elder Feng, can you tell the origin of this palace?" Emperor Qianyin did not act rashly.

"I can't tell," Feng Chen shook his head. "I can only judge that it is the style of the Emperor Rui or Emperor Luo era."

Just at this time, on the stairs outside the palace gate, several musical notes suddenly merged into one, forming a long-haired fairy in white fluttering clothes.

Her gaze fell on the four people below the stairs, first skipping Zhao Xing and Feng Chen, and then saying something to Emperor Qianyin and Emperor Fuzhi. However, Zhao Xing could not hear it.

"Fuzhi, what is she saying?" Feng Chen also didn't hear it and had to ask.

"It says this palace is called the Lingluo Palace, its owner is called Venerable Lingluo, and it is the weapon spirit of the Lingluo Palace," Emperor Fuzhi replied.

"Venerable Lingluo left behind an inheritance test, but only allows me and Emperor Qianyin to go and accept the test."

A flash of surprise flashed in Emperor Qianyin's eyes; if it was said that only the corresponding profession was allowed to accept the test, then only she should be qualified. Why could Emperor Fuzhi, a sword cultivator, also do it?

However, there was no time to think too much at this time, because Feng Chen nodded, and Emperor Fuzhi had already entered the palace gate.

Emperor Qianyin had to hurry to follow; since Venerable Lingluo was called a Venerable, she was definitely at the demigod level, and she could not miss this opportunity.

"Elder Feng, what should we do? Just wait?" Zhao Xing looked at the four types of plants around the palace, his heart itching.

Since the treasures inside the palace were not allowed for other professions, so be it.

But these four plants were all good things.

In Zhao Xing's panel observation, except for the bamboo pole that was already dead, the other three were Emperor-level plants, and they were all still alive!

The point was that these were rare 'derived species', which had been trained by Venerable Lingluo's musical rhythm and possessed the skills of musicians and dancers.

Emperor-level plant units that understood the Dao of musical rhythm. This was too rare! After Zhao Xing opened his internal world, he was just lacking units to use.

The Black Sky Moon Tree was auxiliary, the Spirit-Devouring Grass was still being trained, and the only one he could use was a Seven-Domain True Spirit Bamboo; how could this be considered a troop-exploding school?

"You want to subdue those plants?" Feng Chen guessed Zhao Xing's intention.

"Yes." Zhao Xing nodded repeatedly. "I'm not allowed to enter the palace, but is there any room for negotiation regarding the things outside the palace? I'll trouble you to help me ask."

Feng Chen could read the couplet, but Zhao Xing couldn't; he thought that this scholar of the Six Realms could also communicate with the weapon spirit.

A scholar's knowledge mirror can know all the laws of the world! Not to mention just mastering language and characters; entering any copy from a long time ago cannot lack a scholar as a translator. Sometimes misinterpreting a rule by a little bit could bring about a disaster.

"I'll ask." Feng Chen stepped forward, and bursts of golden light emerged from his mouth; an unknown language came out of his mouth and rushed toward the weapon spirit on the stairs.

Zhao Xing waited expectantly, and then the weapon spirit actually responded; he looked carefully at the expressions of both, but couldn't see anything, and didn't know whether it was negotiated or not.

After a while, the weapon spirit suddenly snorted, and her face became displeased.

Feng Chen had to stop and walk back.

"Elder Feng, what did she say?"

Feng Chen shook his head: "The weapon spirit is called Xuanyue; when I spoke to her, she was quite polite to me at first."

Scholars are respected in any era; only scholars can communicate without causing resentment.

"I told her that there is a genius agricultural official in our era who can plant Dao trees and write books; the plant life here will wither and die sooner or later, so it's better to hand them over to you."

"What did she say?" Zhao Xing asked expectantly.

"She said you are too weak to raise these plants," Feng Chen said.

Disliking me for being weak? Master Zhao was unhappy.

What a blind weapon spirit!

"I said whether you are weak or not, you at least have to try," Feng Chen said.

"After persuasion, she allowed you to pick those plants, but the requirements are very harsh; she said you have to pass three tests under her hands, and each test requires Emperor-level strength to have hope of passing."

"I bargained with her, but she wasn't happy, and in the end, it was left unsettled."

"Elder, please tell her that I want to try," Zhao Xing said expectantly.

He at least had an internal world that met the Emperor-level standard, not to mention that in the historical era, the cultivation system was not as perfect as it is now; maybe the Emperor-level standard the weapon spirit thought of was lower than it is now?

He also had Blue Flower magic power and Red Lotus magic power, and was equipped with magic tools; if he didn't try, he really wouldn't be reconciled.

"Are you kidding?" Feng Chen was a bit stunned; he didn't have a clear understanding of Zhao Xing's strength. "Did I not make it clear just now? It's the Emperor-level standard, not the Lord level."

"Elder, I can do it," Zhao Xing tried his best to show himself, waved his hand, and took Feng Chen into his internal world, and then released him in seconds.

"Your internal world..." Feng Chen was surprised after coming out. "Why is it so big?"

Although he only went in and took a look, the boundless continent, the primordial ocean, and the primordial cloud qi, and the Yin-Yang Nine-Star star system... were completely unlike the performance of someone who had just broken through to the Reincarnation Realm.

"No, it's still too risky," Feng Chen was a good person, he said worriedly: "I brought you in, so I have to be responsible for you; if something happens, I won't be able to explain it."

Zhao Xing was also anxious; he wanted to progress so much, didn't Feng Chen see it?

"Elder, let me try; if it doesn't work, I'll retreat immediately, and I definitely won't be stubborn!"

"Alright." Feng Chen nodded reluctantly. "Since that's the case, I'll go and talk about it again and ask what the three levels are."

He didn't ask in detail just now, bargained when he heard the Emperor-level standard, and was interrupted and retreated; now, of course, he had to ask clearly.

Before long, Feng Chen walked back.

"Asked clearly, the first level is the Will Level," Feng Chen pointed to the stairs on the east side. "As long as you can walk up, pass through the Five-Sound Illusion, and walk to the big tree, you can pass the level."

"Alright." Feng Chen nodded very reluctantly. "Since that's the case, I will go and ask again to see exactly what those three types of trials are."

He hadn't asked in detail just now; he had started haggling upon hearing the Emperor-level standard, was then interrupted, and retreated. Naturally, he has to ask clearly now.

Before long, Feng Chen walked back.

"I've asked clearly. The first trial is the trial of will." Feng Chen pointed to the stairs on the east side and said, "As long as you can walk up, pass through the Five-Tone Illusion, and reach the front of that big tree, you will pass the trial."
