4: A saint's test? The protagonist dies!

Chongxuan Pavilion?!

As that grand voice rang out, it was like a clap of thunder, causing all the strong cultivators present to involuntarily look towards the strong cultivators of Chongxuan Pavilion.

What did such a Saint, who had just emerged, want with Chongxuan Pavilion?

Was it an old acquaintance? Or an enemy?

The strong cultivators exchanged glances, retreating in unison.

The Elders of Chongxuan Pavilion also felt their scalps tingle, looking at the figure within the great sun in the sky, their hearts filled with panic.

Saints, in the Xuan Realm, were the most Supreme existence!

“Senior, this is Chongxuan Pavilion, and I am the current Pavilion Revered Master.”

“May I ask what instructions Senior has?”

Nangong Qin, dressed in black silk robes, stood on the clouds, bowing respectfully.

The location was correct.

Gu Yan should be down there.

Chu Feng’s gaze fell, looking at the people of Chongxuan Pavilion below.

As his gaze descended, the invisible pressure was like hundreds of millions of tons of Nine Heavens Xuan Water pressing down.

The Emperor’s might was too terrifying.

Even a light glance was enough to make all living beings prostrate.

All the strong cultivators of Chongxuan Pavilion felt this terrifying pressure, their legs went weak, and the entire sect knelt!

Other strong cultivators from the Xuan Realm, watching from afar, were so scared they almost wet themselves when they saw this scene, and they all ran away, fearing they would be crushed to death by this terrifying might!

“Looking for someone.”

Chu Feng said indifferently.

This understated remark, falling into the ears of the strong cultivators, was like thunder!

Looking for someone?

A Saint emerged, specifically to Chongxuan Pavilion to look for someone?

Who were they looking for??

Everyone was stunned.

Chu Feng didn’t care, his gaze calmly sweeping below.

The Emperor’s Divine Thought was extremely terrifying; with just one glance, a million-mile radius, endless immortal mountains and treasure islands, blessed lands, all came into view.

Soon, he locked onto Gu Yan’s figure from his previous self’s memory.

At this moment, Gu Yan’s face was flushed, his forehead was covered in bulging veins, and he was gritting his teeth.

Gu Yan

Current Realm: Dragon Transformation Middle Stage

Destiny Value: One hundred thousand

Possessed Treasures: Cold Sky Armor, natural divine tree, Azure Feather Divine Sword

Possessed Physique: Space Divine Body

Possessed Golden Finger: Eternal Gate

As he looked, what surprised Chu Feng was that he directly saw through Gu Yan’s information, instantly seeing all the trump cards of this Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.

Treasures, Physique, and Golden Finger, all exposed under his eyes.

What was the Eternal Gate?

Chu Feng’s focus was mainly on Gu Yan’s Golden Finger.

As everyone knew, the Golden Finger was the Protagonist’s lifeblood.

Many strong cultivators around Chongxuan Pavilion had knelt, but Gu Yan still stood there stubbornly.

Looking for someone?

This Saint, upon emerging, wouldn't be looking for a Legacy holder, would they?

I must perform well to catch this Saint’s Dharma Eye.

As if sensing Chu Feng’s gaze, Gu Yan endured the pressure and immediately trembled as he straightened his chest and raised his head, as if defiant, as if unyielding, to prove that he possessed an iron will!

What are you showing off for?

Chu Feng raised an eyebrow, a cold glint shooting from his eyes.

Immediately, this cold glint transformed into an ancient divine mountain, bringing down infinite might, directly breaking the spine of the proudly standing Gu Yan!

His face turned pale!

Crackling!

As his spine broke, all the bones in his body also shattered into dust.

All his Qi was also instantly drained.

“Gu Yan!”

Amidst a series of exclamations, he went from being a Prodigy to a pile of mud, rotting on the spot.

Just by being glared at—Gu Yan, dead!

[You killed the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist. The Heavenly Mandate Protagonist’s Destiny Value lost three thousand points. You obtained heavenly fate treasure chest * 1.]

As Gu Yan died, Chu Feng received a System notification.

heavenly fate treasure chest?

He found that there was a golden glowing, human-sized large box in his God Ocean.

[Host, calm down! Calm down! The Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is about to be killed by you!]

Just as Chu Feng was pondering what might be in this heavenly fate treasure chest, the System let out a sharp screech.

Chu Feng raised an eyebrow: “So noisy. If he’s dead, he’s dead. If the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist is so easy to kill, then he deserves to die.”

The System was on the verge of tears; this Host’s killing intent was too strong.

Why aren’t you following the script?

But indeed, Chu Feng was not wrong.

Although Gu Yan was killed by Chu Feng’s glare, he was, after all, a Heavenly Mandate Protagonist beloved by heaven and earth, so how could he die so easily?

At the spot where Gu Yan was a pile of mud, a green halo flashed, and the bloody mess gradually formed a human outline.

Resurrected on the spot?!

The surrounding strong cultivators of Chongxuan Pavilion stared at Gu Yan in extreme surprise.

“Oh?”

From Chu Feng’s Emperor perspective, Gu Yan’s ability to resurrect on the spot was due to the natural divine tree within him.

He narrowed his eyes; besides that, there was a faint gray Qi, which only he could see, swirling around Gu Yan.

That was a mysterious Qi that even he could not clearly perceive…

If he was not mistaken, this was the true thing protecting the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.

At the same time, with Gu Yan’s resurrection, his Destiny Value dropped by three thousand points.

Chu Feng seemed to understand something, and then he calmly glanced at Gu Yan again.

Boom.

Exclamations rang out again.

Gu Yan, who had just resurrected, exploded again!

Flesh and blood vanished, leaving no trace of his corpse!

[You killed the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist. The Heavenly Mandate Protagonist’s Destiny Value lost three thousand points. You obtained heavenly fate treasure chest * 1.]

Chu Feng looked at Gu Yan, who had been killed again, and there was only a green light on the spot, like a firefly, slowly repairing itself.

This meant that Gu Yan had another chance to resurrect!

“What’s going on? Is the Saint attacking that young man?”

“That’s Gu Yan of Chongxuan Pavilion. I know him, a rising star who has recently become famous in the Xuan Realm. How did he offend this Saint?”

Gu Yan’s commotion attracted many gazes, and a strong cultivator exclaimed.

“Should we save Gu Yan?”

The strong cultivators of Chongxuan Pavilion exchanged glances, then looked up at the sky.

Save?

Save my ass!

This was a Supreme existence that made the Grand Beginning Bell tremble wildly!

Who could defeat a Saint?

If a Genius was gone, they could recruit another. Cultivating was not easy; don’t throw your own life away!

At this moment, the white-robed Elder of Chongxuan Pavilion stepped forward to salvage their reputation: “Offended? You might have some misunderstanding. What is the status of a Saint? How could they attack Gu Yan for no reason? This mysterious Saint has already said that they are looking for someone, so it might be that they are looking for a Legacy holder. Gu Yan is very likely to be chosen, and this is a test for him.”

This explanation immediately made many people realize: “As expected of Elder Jiang, he saw through this? Testing Gu Yan? What an enviable young man!”

“But speaking of it, this Gu Yan has many trump cards. Under the might of a Saint, he can still resist. Amazing.”

“If he can really pass the Saint’s test, Gu Yan will probably soar into the sky!”

“…”

The strong cultivators of Chongxuan Pavilion found it reasonable and all waved away the crowd around Gu Yan, looking at him expectantly.

“Come on, Gu Yan, you must hold on.”

Someone whispered a prayer for Gu Yan in their heart.

If the Saint truly favored him, Chongxuan Pavilion would also rise together!

An old woman frowned: “What if… Gu Yan can’t endure it and dies?”

The white-robed Elder beside her said as a matter of course: “If he dies, he dies! How can a Saint’s Legacy be obtained so easily? To be chosen, this is already a huge opportunity!”

“…”

The strong cultivators of Chongxuan Pavilion discussed animatedly, watching Gu Yan, who had already turned to dust, regenerate flesh and blood again, and all breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Nangong Qin, Gu Yan’s Revered Master, showed worry in her eyes and whispered a message to Gu Yan through her cherry lips.

“I can still endure Senior’s test, Revered Master, don’t worry about me.”

Gu Yan, who had been reborn again, had firm eyes and looked straight up at the figure like a great sun in the Nine Heavens.

A Saint’s test?

Don’t underestimate me!!!

Boom!

The next second, Gu Yan exploded again.
