ROAR!
Accompanied by several distinctly different roars, Wen Zhixing’s gaze was instantly captivated by the scene before him. The jade sculptures seed as though they had co to life. One after another, they radiated light. Especially one real dragon statue; its huge dragon head suddenly turned towards their direction.
Hmm? What is this... Wen Zhixing was imdiately taken aback. His body was completely immobilized.
In that instant, Wen Zhixing locked eyes with those on the statue. The light within those eyes was brilliant, as if it could penetrate any substance and see into the deepest secrets of the soul. The sculpture, originally crafted from jade, seed to have seized the essence of creation, its body instantly transforming into flesh and blood.
What is this thing! Wen Zhixing’s gaze trembled. He could not resist the stare of that pair of eyes. His mind felt sowhat groggy at that mont.
The next mont, Wen Zhixing sensed an inexplicable force descending upon him. Ti and space around him seed to halt, devoid of motion. The eyes on the statue appeared to have opened just for him.
Is this... probing my aptitude? Wen Zhixing’s heart skipped a beat as he sensed sothing amiss. Could it be that as soon as we stepped into the hall, this so-called test had already started? But... it shouldn’t be like this... This isn’t right! Divine Demon Creation Skill!
Wen Zhixing frantically began to circulate the newly acquired cultivation skill. In fact, prior to this, he had already altered his very essence, concealing the Longevity Body. This was the sa reason Qin Tian had miscalculated with the Netherworld Eyes earlier. Wen Zhixing’s fundantal nature had been changed, so naturally, Qin Tian could not see the true situation.
However, faced with this sudden force, Wen Zhixing was sowhat alard. Thus, he circulated the cultivation skill once more, making the changes to his essence appear even more natural. After all, he had only recently acquired the Fortune Divine Devil Skill, and it would have been normal to have made so oversights.
BUZZ!
This force was like the gentlest of waters, effortlessly rging into Wen Zhixing’s body, as if any resistance was futile. It imdiately passed through his limbs and ridians, surged into his Sea of Qi, and then dispersed throughout his body, swiftly completing its circuit.
The next mont, Wen Zhixing noticed the force within him seed to pause slightly. The eyes of the divine dragon statue also paused for an instant, as if puzzled by the result of the probe. After a brief hesitation, the force took another tour inside his body.
After a while, Wen Zhixing seed to perceive a faint sigh. It appeared this was not the result it had wanted.
The light from all the statues began to fade, and everything returned to calm.
BUZZ!
The space shattered abruptly.
Wen Zhixing suddenly opened his eyes.
Hmm?
Wen Zhixing’s eyes trembled; he still found himself outside the Immortal Hall. The statues that had supposedly looked at him had not co to life, and their positions were unchanged, identical to before.
"Mr. Wen, what’s wrong?" Lianxin had already stepped inside. Noticing Wen Zhixing’s strange state, she turned back to ask.
Wen Zhixing did not respond but slowly turned his head to look around. This is... an illusion... How could this be? The statues had clearly radiated light, and the real dragon statue had even co to life. But now, opening my eyes, it all felt like a dream. In an instant, Wen Zhixing felt a sense of spatiotemporal confusion. Was that incredibly real experience just now false?
"Mr. Wen?" Lianxin blinked, tugging on his wrist, a hint of worry in her eyes. What happened here?
"It’s nothing." Wen Zhixing offered a slight smile and a reassuring word, then also stepped inside.
Seeing his reaction, Lianxin did not ask any further, understanding that sotis it was better not to know too much.
Qin Yang... Wen Zhixing’s gaze turned back to the interior of the Immortal Hall. He saw that Qin Yang and Qin Tian, who had entered the Immortal Hall first, had already approached the jade statues.
"Go ahead," Qin Yang nodded at Qin Tian, who was dressed in a white robe.
Although he had previously said his nephew’s aptitude was not great, that wasn’t actually the case. The special nature of the Netherworld Eyes had affected his body; Qin Tian’s talent was, in fact, extraordinarily heaven-defying.
"Yes." Qin Tian nodded, his eyes burning with a strange fla.
There were nine statues in front of him. They were nine divine beast statues, each with a different posture but all with eyes that looked down upon the world with disdain. They were exactly the sa as the statues Wen Zhixing had seen in the illusion.
BUZZ!
In an instant, a light shone from one of the jade statues. It was an exotic beast shaped like a dog, covered in long fur, with four legs, and a body like a bear but without claws.
Suddenly, light entered Qin Tian’s body. The scene was sowhat similar to what Wen Zhixing had experienced, only this statue did not open its eyes.
Is this one of the four great evil beasts... Chaos? Wen Zhixing found the exotic beast’s appearance a bit odd, but his considerable knowledge of the Classic of Mountains and Seas helped him recall its na. He had always had a certain fondness for such things and would study them in his spare ti.
"Lianxin, what exotic beast is this?" Wen Zhixing was not entirely sure, so he asked again.
"Sir, this servant does not know." Lianxin shook her head, speaking softly with so embarrassnt, her eyes filled with a hint of confusion. She was just a humble servant; how would she know of such things?
