Chapter 214 Assessment Qualifications
"Qingwu, you are so awesome. It turns out that smashing the egg was the right choice!" Zhuge Youlin praised Qingwu generously and mentioned the black egg by the way.
His dark face turned slightly red and his eyes sparkled, obviously showing his pleasure at being praised.
"Thanks."
At this moment, Qingwu was like a little white rabbit that had sneaked into a wolf's den.
A group of nine people walked towards the road ahead. There were too many valuable things in this palace. Along the way, there were not only various valuable decorative objects, but also magical herbs and medicines that had grown for thousands of years.
It's really eye-catching.
But they can't take them now, because these things are covered with a layer of spiritual imprint. If they touch them rashly, they may suffer a strong backlash.
The water lanterns on the palace walls were floating and swaying, giving a hazy feeling like the golden fragments of the setting sun. They passed through the winding road and finally saw a magnificent palace. The plaques on it were all made of gold and sparkled brightly.
It sinks in the water, which is quite interesting.
The plaque reads: There is no me in the world.
Xiao Zechuan: "There is no me in the world? What exactly does Senior Quan Yangqiu want to express?"
Zhuge Youlin replied: "Isn't this easy to understand? He no longer exists in the world because he has passed away."
After hearing this, several people fell silent.
It's not impossible.
But is this simple and easy-to-understand explanation really what Quan Yangqiu wanted to express?
The door of the 'No One in the World' Hall is tightly closed. If you want to enter, you need to open the door.
But no one knows whether there will be a trap behind this palace door?
At this moment, Chen Yan took a step forward and stood in front of the palace gate.
Wen Yuchu and the others looked a little tense, their eyes fixed on Chen Yan's figure and the palace gate, while also being alert to the possibility of danger.
Chen Yan slowly raised his hand, exerted force, and pushed open the palace door.
At that moment——
The bells rang out.
Chen Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly looked up at the red bell hanging behind the palace door. It was fluttering like an ordinary bell, but the next moment, it emitted a red light.
"Be careful!" Pei Wu Su said in a low voice.
A powerful suction force instantly sucked all nine of them into the hall, and after they completely disappeared, the hall door closed again with a bang.
As if nothing had happened.
At this moment in the hall, Qingwu screamed in fear and suddenly grabbed the arm of someone next to him, because many unidentified objects emitting green light suddenly appeared in the dark hall.
It's a ghost!
“Ghost!”
Qingwu cried out in surprise. The person he caught happened to be Xiao Zechuan. Xiao Zechuan looked at him with disgust, and he pushed Qingwu away with force.
Qingwu was pushed away and stumbled.
He immediately grabbed the arm of another person, who was Wen Yuchu.
Wen Yuchu gently helped him up.
Qingwu suddenly felt a little safe.
These ghosts emitting green light made strange and shrill noises at will, and then kept passing through the bodies of Chen Yan and others, trying to scare them.
Zhuge Youlin came back to his senses and said in astonishment: "That's it? Could this be the inheritance test? Is it to train our courage?"
As soon as he said this, the ghosts froze.
"Sister Yanyan's ghost is still more interesting." Yu Changying smiled, and then looked at Chen Yan in the dark, "Sister Yanyan, why don't you summon the ghosts and let them communicate with each other?"
The ghost with green light in the hall was shocked when he heard Yu Changying's words.
Who can summon ghosts?
They subconsciously looked in a certain direction, as if asking why?
Their movements were just noticed by Chen Yan, and she followed their gaze. In the darkness, there was a figure without any green light.
It's a bit like a phantom.
If Chen Yan guessed correctly, this phantom was most likely the remaining soul of Senior Quan Yangqiu from a thousand years ago.
"The juniors meet Senior Quan."
Chen Yan raised his hand and bowed in the direction of the shadow, performing the salute of a junior.
Wen Yuchu and the others' expressions changed slightly, and they immediately looked in that direction, then raised their hands and bowed, "Greetings, Senior Quan."
A hearty laugh suddenly rang out in the hall, like a sudden thunderclap, startling people.
“Hahahahahaha…”
In an instant, the ghost emitting green light disappeared.
The light in the hall gradually returned.
Under their slightly nervous gaze, a shadow appeared not far away. The man was tall, and looked to be a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, but his lips were a little thick, which added a bit of simple and honest temperament to his appearance.
He was wearing a plain long gown, but he was wearing expensive ornaments, such as jade pendants, a golden crown for his hair, etc.
His appearance was only considered above average, but his eyes were very sharp, giving people a sense of authority without even being angry.
Quan Yangqiu is now just a remnant soul, so his body is translucent. He laughed loudly, but there was not much real emotion: "Little kids, welcome."
When Chen Yan and the others heard this, their expressions paused slightly.
They were really not used to being addressed as this senior, but when they thought about it, they realized that Quan Yangqiu was already over a thousand years old before he died, and over a thousand years had passed after his death.
Compared to his age, they are really 'little kids'.
Chen Yan bowed and humbly said, "Senior, we are rude and have trespassed here without permission. Please forgive us, Senior."
Quan Yangqiu's eyes fell on the purple-clothed girl and he looked her over for a few times. He remembered that this little girl was the first person to discover him and she had some observation skills.
Quan Yangqiu put away his smile and said, "Since you know it's impolite, why did you come?"
Chen Yan said bluntly: "Of course it's for your inheritance assessment."
Quan Yangqiu shouted angrily.
“Bold!”
In an instant, an invisible pressure instantly enveloped Chen Yan and his companions. Chen Yan and his companions suddenly felt as if their breath was taken away and cold sweats broke out.
Chen Yan held on, raised her head, and stared at Quan Yangqiu, saying with force, "Senior, you are powerful and highly respected. You were a legendary figure a thousand years ago. Therefore, your inheritance and experience are priceless treasures to us. We yearn for them."
When Quan Yangqiu heard this, he laughed.
"Little girl, you are really good at talking. I love listening to you, but—" Quan Yangqiu reduced the pressure on them, then glanced at them and sneered: "Do you think you are qualified to receive my inheritance and experience? I have seen countless geniuses, and there are also many people who are more talented than you."
He showed his contempt for them in his words.
Zhuge Youlin gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, you didn't even let us try, and you said we were bad. Isn't that a bit too overbearing?"
"Oh?" Quan Yangqiu looked at Zhuge Youlin with a strong sense of oppression. He smiled and asked, "Am I not qualified to be overbearing?"
Zhuge Youlin’s face froze.
“…You do.”
Wen Yuchu's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked seriously, "Senior, can you let us take the test?"
Quan Yangqiu sneered and said ruthlessly: "None of you are qualified for the assessment, nor are you qualified to leave. Once you enter here, stay here until you die."
