Chapter 387 Xuan Meiji and Snow Child

“Whew…”

Heaven Rover let out a long breath and remained silent, as if he had not completely accepted the sudden death of Yuan in a short time.

Old Lady Duhua also had a solemn expression, and she had no intention of going to try the golden bell. Her physical body was pretty the same as that of Yuan, who had unfortunately lost his life. So why bother?

The voice of Yuan seemed to remain lingering in her ears, when such a big change occurred in just a few seconds. Even with thousands of years of experience, Old Lady Duhua couldn’t help but sigh at this moment.

It was uncommon to witness the death of an old fox of Yuanying Realm.

“I didn’t expect the second level to be so dangerous…”

The familiar voice of Heaven Rover sounded, with the tone of regret. Then, he turned his eyes to Old Lady Duhua with an inquiring look and asked, “The death of Fellow Pract.i.tioner Yuan may be just an accident. The road to cultivation is difficult and dangerous. Maybe this level will show different powers for different people. Does Fellow Pract.i.tioner Duhua want to give it a try?”

Hearing such provocative words from Heaven Rover, Old Lady Duhua sneered in her heart, “Heaven Rover, you really treat me like a fool!”

However, she showed a helpless expression, shook her head and said, “Although I am very willing to do so, my physical body is not much different from that of Yuan. So why bother to court death?”

“That’s a shame…”

Heaven Rover sighed, looking at the stone tablet that showed no direction for the next level, and continued hypocritically, “If no one pa.s.ses the level, we will not be able to know the direction for the next level. It is impossible for me to let you court death. The only solution for now is to follow my conjectures and take one step at a time.”

“Hoho…”

Immortal Bingshu stood up and said with a smile, “Don’t be humble and just act at will, Fellow Pract.i.tioner Heaven. If you did not find the next level, we would never put the blame on you.”

“Yeah!”

“Senior Heaven, please make a move to lead us to the third level!”

As soon as Immortal Bingshu said this, everyone immediately agreed, and even the old foxes of Yuan Ying Realm also smiled and nodded. No one showed their true inner thoughts on their faces.

Didn’t they see that Yuan showed his doubts and died soon?

Although… it was not sure that whether Heaven Rover made a move or not, this could not prevent other pract.i.tioners from making a.s.sociations.

“Thank you, fellow pract.i.tioners! I didn’t expect that at this time, you are still willing to trust me…”

Heaven Rover showed an expression of being touched and turned his palm. When a light flashed with the palm facing up, a black and white compa.s.s treasure appeared in his hand.

“This compa.s.s is called Finding Treasure Compa.s.s. It has an unfathomable effect of directing. Whether we can find the next level or not depends on it.”

As he was saying, Heaven Rover injected the force of Yuanying into the compa.s.s. Then, the hand on the compa.s.s trembled and rotated quickly. But soon, it stopped in a certain direction.

“There!”

With a glimmer of light in his eyes, Heaven Rover did not hesitate to follow the direction of the compa.s.s, and the others immediately followed.

Su Li looked at the feeble figure of Heaven Rover, with her eyes flas.h.i.+ng.

The others may not notice it, but when Heaven Rover cast the spell, she clearly sensed a wave that was very similar to the Divine Thunder of Earth, only with less heaviness. However, she was not sure which Divine Thunder of the Five Elements it was.

The only thing for sure was that Heaven Rover definitely had some kind of ulterior relations.h.i.+p with the cave of inheritance.

On the gloomy plain with endless desolation, they finally saw the stone tablet after walking for five days under the leaders.h.i.+p of Heaven Rover.

The tense expression of Heaven Rover was slightly relieved, which was visible to the naked eye. Then, he said in a deep voice, “After a few days, we finally found a stone tablet.”

“Hum—”

Before he finished his words, Old Lady Duhua said softly. He hesitated for a moment and said, “This seems… not to be the third stone tablet.”

“What? Not the third level?”

Everyone’s complexion changed slightly. Heaven Rover seemed to have just noticed this, and quickly looked at the stone tablet. After that, he laughed bitterly and explained, “What Fellow Pract.i.tioner Duhua said is true. This is the fourth stone tablet for the fourth level!”

“We skipped the third level?”

w.a.n.g Yu could not believe it. Anyone who knew a little about the ancient cave of inheritance should have the common sense that the inheritance was particularly rigorous in ancient times. Those who took the test could only pa.s.s the level step by step as the owner of the cave wished, but now they were obviously misled by Heaven Rover.

Heaven Rover took out the compa.s.s and saw that the hand on it was pointing to the stone tablet in front of him. With a sudden expression of helplessness, he said, “It seems that we have to skip the third level and start from the fourth level. Fortunately, Senior Cang Lei has never said that we should take the test in order. Therefore, this is not cheating, and we will not trigger the curb of punishment in the cave.”

At these words, a soft and charming voice suddenly sounded. It was the seductive woman in purple who had never opened her mouth that finally talked, but her tone did not mean any friendliness.

“Senior Heaven, it is easy for you to say. The fourth level is my turn and I will be the one to take the risk. You want to send me to die with several words. You have gone too far… hum?”

With the slight hum, it seemed that a pink phantom flashed across the nothingness. Young male pract.i.tioners who had poor cultivation had immediately fallen hard for her with their eyes blurred. Some even drooled and had physical reactions shamelessly.

“Another bada.s.s with the unknown background…”

w.a.n.g Yu standing next to the seductive woman couldn’t help but step back at this moment, with fear in her eyes.

Before she came, she thought that with her own means of inheritance, even if her cultivation hadn’t reached Yuanying Realm, it would be enough to deal with everything. But now, she found that there were too many talents with different capabilities in the cultivation circle. How could her means be comparable to theirs?

“Fellow Pract.i.tioner Xuan, calm down.”

Heaven Rover did not lose his temper for the questioning of the seductive woman. He laughed and said, “It’s natural that you have worries. My conjectures are based on the ancient books, which may be hard for Fellow Pract.i.tioner Xuan to believe. Well… I have a compromise.”

Having said this, Heaven Rover pointed to the stone tablet and continued,

“According to the stone tablet, the fourth level is a test of soul. When it comes to the attainments of soul, I am far inferior to Fellow Pract.i.tioner Xuan Meiji and Fellow Pract.i.tioner Snow Child! But even if I can’t pa.s.s the level, I have no problem in saving my life in the fourth level. As long as I can save my life, what I said previously can be proved to be true. Then, Fellow Pract.i.tioner Xuan and Fellow Pract.i.tioner Snow can make a move to pa.s.s the level. How do you think?”

What Heaven Rover said was reasonable, and he was even prepared to take the risk with his own life. Finding no loopholes, Xuan Meiji immediately got slightly relaxed. She nodded and said,

“Since Senior Heaven has made such a compromise, how can I refuse?”

Heaven Rover laughed and looked at the child in white with white hair, with the inquiring eyes. The child remained silent, but nodded slightly as a response, after thinking about it at the end.

With their approval, Heaven Rover did not hesitate, walked into the dark stone chamber on the altar of the fourth level without saying a word, and entered the stone chamber in the blink of an eye.

In the next moment, the black stone chamber twisted and disappeared, under their frightened eyes!

Seeing the person who led the way disappear suddenly, even the old foxes of Yuanying Realm who had never changed their complexions looked gloomy.

“Has the old thing run away?”

“I knew something was wrong with him!”

“We should have stayed with Senior Wen, so we would be closer to the exit. Now we have no sense of direction at all. Will we be trapped here to death?”

“…”

In the inexplicably quiet atmosphere, the panic was slowly spreading as time went by.

Xuan Meiji stared at the altar without anger, or intention of going up to the altar.

At this moment, Snow Child who was like a sculpture suddenly moved!

His move immediately attracted the attention of most old foxes of Yuanying Realm. However, when they saw Snow Child just sit down to wait, they were speechless.

Seeing this, Xuan Meiji showed a strange look in her eyes. She smiled and said, “Hey, Brother Snow, it’s so boring to sit alone. I will come to join you.”

After saying that, Xuan Meiji twisted her waist and sat next to Snow Child, ignoring the disappearance of the black stone room. Everyone was confused.

Su Li also sat down. However, she was just at Lianqi Realm, and no one noticed her movements certainly.

“The stone chamber is still there, but it is covered by a special force, which cannot be sensed. This force is somewhat similar to the illusion I encountered on Chuangxing Path…”

Su Li was particularly impressed by the force, which was half true and half false, so she could see through the altar at a glance.

“Obviously, it is not that easy for Heaven Rover to die. Let me see what his purpose for this show is…”

While Su Li was secretly planning, Immortal Bingshu and the others who were thoughtful, abandoned the idea of leaving and each found a place to rest and wait, after seeing the abnormal reaction of Xuan Meiji and Snow Child.

As time went by slowly, the fourth altar finally had some reaction after Su Li sorted out the last paragraph of Suiyu Tactics of Chapter Zhuji.

Boom!

With a dull thud, the black stone chamber reappeared. Then, everyone saw Heaven Rover who turned into a gray blur escape outside. His face turned reddish as soon as he landed, and he spit a mouthful of blood.

“Ahem…”

Heaven Rover cleared his throat for several times with his hand clenched on his chest. With lingering fear flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes, he regretted, “The illusion of the fourth level is too terrible. I barely escaped out consciously by all means. If it was later, I’m afraid I would get lost in it.”

Illusion?

Was the black stone chamber full of illusions?

Hearing what Heaven Rover said, many old foxes of Yuanying Realm had their eyes flickered. They were able to get here, for that they had treasures to protect their souls more or less. Therefore, they all made their own plans at the same time.

Xuan Meiji smiled, as vivid as hundreds of flowers in full bloom.

“Senior Heaven is really a man of action. Since you have fulfilled the promise, I have to go and see how terrifying the illusion you mentioned is…”

After that, she turned her glamorous and bright gaze to Snow Child, whose expression remained unchanged. He went back to sit down and made him will clear.

You should go!

Xuan Meiji covered her mouth and chuckled, “Young as you are, Brother Snow really knows how to treat women. I will be right back and I won’t let you wait for five days.”

After saying this, Xuan Meiji fell into the altar and entered the test of the fourth level.

Su Li, who had always been paying attention to Heaven Rover, clearly saw the growing smile on his face after Xuan Meiji entered the fourth level.
