Gu Yifeng frowned, defeated the giant crocodile with a single blow, and then continued to venture deeper into the secret realm.
I've heard that the legacy of the son of gods and demons is located here.
"These monsters are impossible to kill no matter what we do?" Gu Yifeng couldn't help but curse as he looked at the mountains of corpses ahead and the eerie winds that kept blowing from the darkness.
"Don't worry, as long as we can find the core area of the secret realm, that's enough!" An old voice suddenly appeared.
"Who?" Gu Yifeng looked around warily, but did not see anyone.
But the sound was undeniably there, forcing him to be on guard.
"You have entered the core area of the secret realm. If you go any further, you will encounter guardians, so please be sure to stay vigilant!" the voice said indifferently.
"Who are you?" Gu Yifeng asked.
"No need to know! Just keep going!" the voice rang out again.
Gu Yifeng remained silent for a long time before slowly moving forward.
The deeper they went, the darker the atmosphere became, and strange creatures would often appear to attack them, but Gu Yifeng dealt with them all with ease.
Finally, with the last step, the view suddenly opened up!
"Where...where is this?" Gu Yifeng stared in shock at the scene before him!
"You have passed the test and received the inheritance!" the aged voice rang out. "Go, child, congratulations!"
When Gu Yifeng came to his senses, he found himself in a palace, inside which was placed a golden stone slab.
"Could it be..." Recalling what the old voice had said, Gu Yifeng quickly picked up the golden stone tablet.
Suddenly, a flood of information rushed into my mind!
"So that's how it is..." Gu Yifeng was overjoyed. He had originally thought that the path of inheritance would be extremely difficult, but it turned out to be so simple!
The Path of Inheritance has nine levels. Each level's guardian will guide him through trials. When he reaches the final level, the guardian will bestow upon him the divine artifact—the Key of the Gods!
If he possesses a divine artifact, he will have truly gained the recognition of this supreme being and will receive the inheritance.
"Phew~" After putting away the key of the god, Gu Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave the secret realm.
However, a series of crisp footsteps suddenly came from afar, and soon, a woman's figure came into view.
The woman looked to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, with snow-white skin, bright eyes and white teeth, and exquisite features; she was absolutely stunning.
What's even more surprising is her attire; although it was just a simple dress, it exuded a noble air, completely setting her apart from ordinary people.
"You are..." Upon seeing the girl in front of him, Gu Yifeng felt a deep sense of doubt. This girl seemed somewhat familiar.
"Don't you remember me? My name is Murong Xian'er!" the girl said with a charming smile.
"Xian'er?" Gu Yifeng pondered for a moment, then a look of realization appeared on his face: "Oh, it's you!"
"It's me!" Murong Xian'er nodded slightly, then pointed to the palace in front of her and said, "My father is waiting for you there!"
"Your father is waiting for me there?" Gu Yifeng asked in surprise. He had no relation to this girl, so why would she come all the way here to tell him?
"That's right, because you are the only one who passed the test and received the inheritance." Murong Xian'er smiled gently, "You can go in and receive the inheritance now."
After saying that, Murong Xian'er walked into the depths of the palace and disappeared.
Gu Yifeng stood outside the palace gate, watching the disappearing figure, lost in thought.
After a long while, Gu Yifeng took a step and walked into the palace. He wanted to figure out what was going on.
Entering the hall, which was empty, Gu Yifeng walked straight to the top.
There, a golden key floats suspended.
Gu Yifeng reached out and grasped the key. In an instant, a complex stream of information flooded his mind.
It was a novel called "Tai Xu" that depicted the history of cultivators' practice.
"So, I've passed the test?" Gu Yifeng murmured.
He looked up and saw three golden characters engraved on the stone tablet at the top of the palace: "Secret Chamber of Inheritance"!
“This must be the inheritance!” Gu Yifeng walked into the inheritance chamber. It was pitch black inside, with only a few oil lamps illuminating the entire room.
Suddenly, a ray of light pierced the room, shining brightly in the dim light.
"Hmm?" Gu Yifeng's gaze shifted to a sword with a golden blade that emitted a strong aura, giving off an extremely oppressive feeling.
This sword is no ordinary sword.
"Buzz!" The sword suddenly trembled, as if sensing Gu Yifeng, shaking violently, trying to break free from Gu Yifeng's control.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Gu Yifeng exclaimed in surprise, "This sword seems to be afraid of me?"
This sword is quite powerful, but Gu Yifeng felt that the sword seemed to be quite afraid of him.
"No, it's rejecting me?" Gu Yifeng frowned. He vaguely sensed something but couldn't quite put his finger on it, since he had never practiced any martial arts techniques or cultivation methods.
Gu Yifeng tried to get closer to the sword, but it repelled him, showing no intention of getting close to him.
"I understand." Suddenly, Gu Yifeng's eyes lit up as he figured out the key.
This sword doesn't seem to be targeted at him; rather, it seems to have some kind of restriction, such as only he can touch it, and anyone else who touches it will be attacked!
This sword has its own consciousness!
"Since you're so resistant to me, then I won't force you!" Gu Yifeng shrugged and turned to leave the room.
He never coveted the inheritance. If it weren't for this sword, he probably would have left long ago. Why would he linger here?
"Buzz buzz buzz~~" However, just as he was about to retreat, the sword suddenly shook violently, as if it desperately wanted Gu Yifeng to stay a little longer.
"Hmm?" Gu Yifeng was taken aback, then shook his head with a wry smile: "This guy is indeed resisting me."
However, we can't blame it.
Since the sword has already chosen its new master, it will naturally no longer allow Gu Yifeng to touch it.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Yifeng walked towards the sword again, wanting to see what was so strange about it.
"Buzz!" However, this time, when Gu Yifeng stepped into the sword, the sword suddenly became quiet.
Gu Yifeng was filled with doubt. Could it be that this sword had truly recognized him as its master?
However, Gu Yifeng quickly dismissed the thought, shook his head, and left again.
This time, the sword did not stop Gu Yifeng.
However, just as Gu Yifeng had walked a few meters, a chilling killing intent suddenly locked onto him!
"Boom!"
A terrifying pressure descended from the sky!
A man shrouded in black robes appeared above Gu Yifeng, like a messenger of death, exuding an overwhelming chill.
"Who are you?" Feeling the terrifying pressure, Gu Yifeng's pupils instantly contracted.
The man in black robes did not answer, but his eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty red light.
The next second, he suddenly swung his fist and smashed it towards Gu Yifeng.
