80: Chapter 80: They've all taken a liking to me?

Four clues to a Legacy!

What kind of concept is that?

In other words, four Demon Venerables had all taken an interest in Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran bowed solemnly: "Many thanks to the four Seniors."

"No need for thanks."

"Whether you can obtain it depends on your own fortune."

The figure of the Blood Fiend Demon Venerable began to fade.

As the voice faded, the four phantoms dissipated.

The scene before Xiao Ran's eyes changed again, and he returned to the Ascension Platform.

He looked at the others.

Li Tianxing, White Bone Scholar, and Liu Ruyan had also come out; all three had the look of those who had gained something in their eyes.

Clearly, they had each obtained clues to their corresponding Legacies within the Demon Gate.

"Junior Brother Xiao, it seems you have gained quite a lot."

Li Tianxing said with a smile.

"Senior Brother Li is the same."

Xiao Ran replied.

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying no more.

Cultivators of the Demonic Path each had their secrets; there was no need to pry.

A moment later, light flickered from the direction of the Immortal Gate.

Ling Jianxin, Li Changsheng, Jian Wuchen, and Su Qinghan also stepped out one after another.

Ling Jianxin's Sword Intent was even more piercing; clearly, he had received the recognition of some Immortal Venerable within the Immortal Gate.

Clear Qi flowed around Li Changsheng's body, and his Innate Dao Embryo seemed to have undergone some sort of transformation.

Jian Wuchen's Dao of the sword had a Breakthrough, and Su Qinghan's Dao techniques had improved.

All eight had passed the second trial!

"Congratulations."

The voice from the stone monument rose again.

"Third trial: Heaven-Battling Platform."

"In the ancient era, the Immortal and Demonic Paths worked together to deal with the Yao Race. They once set up a battle platform here to discuss the Dao through martial arts and make friends through battle."

"The Heaven-Battling Platform is not a life-and-death arena, but a platform to display one's own path and verify what one has learned."

"Those who ascend the platform must demonstrate what they have realized and gained in the first two trials. The platform will grant a Legacy Resonance Degree based on their performance."

"The higher the resonance degree, the greater the chance of obtaining the corresponding Legacy after entering the true Legacy land."

"Now, ascend the platform."

In the center of the Ascension Platform, a black arena with a radius of a hundred zhang slowly rose from the ground.

The arena was ancient and weathered, its surface covered in sword and blade marks, exuding a thick Battle Intent and Dao charm.

"Who will go first?"

Ling Jianxin looked at the four from the Demonic Path.

"I will."

Li Tianxing stepped forward and landed in the center of the Heaven-Battling Platform.

He closed his eyes for three breaths, then opened them.

"Blood Fiend Demonic Path, please enlighten me."

He fully unleashed his Blood Fiend Demon Body, and nine Blood Fiend demon shadows appeared behind him.

Each one condensed the insights he had gained in the previous two trials.

The nine demons emerged together, evolving a profound Blood Fiend battle technique on the Heaven-Battling Platform.

The platform shook, and blood-colored patterns appeared on its surface, resonating with Li Tianxing's Blood Fiend Devilish Qi.

A beam of blood-colored light shot into the sky, condensing into a number:

97

Legacy Resonance Degree, 97!

"Very high."

White Bone Scholar nodded.

Li Tianxing withdrew his technique and stepped off the platform.

"Next, I will."

Ling Jianxin stepped onto the platform.

He fully unleashed his Supreme Sword Heart, and ten thousand strands of Sword Qi evolved the true meaning of the Dao of the sword.

A number appeared in the sky:

96

Slightly inferior, but the difference was minimal.

The two looked at each other, both having Battle Intent in their eyes.

Next, White Bone Scholar ascended the platform, his Nether Bone Dao evolving, with a resonance degree of 92.

Jian Wuchen ascended the platform, displaying his Dao of the Heavenly Sword, with a resonance degree of 90.

Liu Ruyan ascended the platform, unleashing her illusion and charm techniques, with a resonance degree of 88.

Su Qinghan ascended the platform, evolving her Supreme Dao techniques, with a resonance degree of 87.

Now, only two people had yet to ascend the platform.

Xiao Ran and Li Changsheng.

"Junior Brother Li, please."

Ling Jianxin looked at Li Changsheng.

Li Changsheng nodded and stepped onto the platform.

He did not display any flashy Moves, but simply stood there quietly.

His Innate Dao Embryo circulated naturally, resonating with heaven and earth, merging with the insights from the first two trials.

At this moment, the natural fit of the Immortal path, the clarity of the Dao Heart from the questioning of the heart, and the understanding of the power of the Dao Embryo all surged into his mind.

Returning to simplicity.

The platform shook violently, and clear Qi soared into the sky!

A number appeared:

98

The whole place went silent!

Even higher than Li Tianxing!

A flash of complexity crossed Ling Jianxin's eyes, but it immediately turned into gratification: "Junior Brother Li is indeed gifted."

Li Changsheng stepped off the platform and looked at Xiao Ran.

It was the last person.

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and stepped onto the Heaven-Battling Platform.

He did not rush to demonstrate, but closed his eyes to recall.

Every step on the Immortal Climbing Ladder, the tempering of Devilish Qi on the Demonic Path, the interrogation by the four Demon Venerables during the questioning of the heart, the devouring essence of the Guixu Body, the Dao Heart of 'my fate is decided by me'...

Then, he opened his eyes.

"Guixu Demonic Path, please evaluate."

No flashy lights, no overwhelming Aura.

Xiao Ran simply raised his hand, and a gray-black vortex appeared in his palm.

The vortex rotated slowly, devouring everything around it.

Guixu, returning all things to nothingness.

But the next moment, Xiao Ran clasped his hands together.

"Guixu... Derivation."

The vortex reversed, turning from devouring to releasing!

This was his deeper understanding of the Guixu Body after passing the first two trials.

Devouring was not the end; transformation and derivation were the true Profound Truth of Guixu.

The platform shook wildly!

No, the entire Ascension Platform was shaking!

In the sky, a number appeared:

99

The whole place was dead silent.

99!

The highest resonance degree!

Shock appeared in Li Tianxing's eyes, Ling Jianxin's expression was solemn, and the others were even more stunned.

Xiao Ran withdrew his technique and stepped off the platform, his face slightly pale.

Clearly, this Move consumed a great deal.

"Congratulations to you all, you have all passed."

The voice from the stone monument sounded, carrying a rare fluctuation.

"The Legacy Resonance Degree has been set. Next, the true Legacy land will be opened."

"This place is a fragment of the ancient decisive battle between Immortals, Demons, and the Yao Race."

"The battlefield spans three thousand li, containing seventy-two Legacy ruins."

"There are nine Immortal Venerable Legacies, twelve Demon Venerable Legacies, seven Yao Saint Legacies, and forty-four other large and small Legacies."

"The eight of you may use your resonance degree to sense the direction of the corresponding Legacy and seek your own Opportunity."

"A friendly reminder: Legacies have spirits and choose their own masters. You must not try to seize them by force, or you will surely suffer a backlash."

"In addition, the Immortal Demon Hall in the center of the battlefield is the main hall of this place, containing the greatest Opportunity: the immortal demon origin."

"But the Immortal Demon Hall requires at least three people to open it simultaneously, and those who enter... must face the final trial."

"Little ones, it depends on whose score is higher or lower."

"Off you go!"

Eight beams of light descended from the sky, enveloping everyone.

"Junior Brother Xiao, the battlefield is fraught with danger. If you need anything, you can come to the Blood Fiend Demon Hall to find me."

Just at this moment, Li Tianxing suddenly sent a voice transmission.

"Many thanks, Senior Brother."

Xiao Ran replied.

He looked at Li Changsheng again.

In the Soul link, Li Changsheng's voice came: "Xiao Ran, see you at the Immortal Demon Hall."

"Certainly."
