233: inheritance test
“I don’t know what’s going on either!”
“Ever since we arrived at the mountainside, the token hasn’t stopped glowing.”
“But there’s still no trace of the Rain Fairy’s Legacy. Could it be that the token is faulty?”
After Ye Zirou finished speaking, she immediately shook her head.
This was a reward from the Tower of the Heavens; it couldn’t possibly have a problem.
“That’s strange, what exactly…”
Shen Xi muttered to himself.
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the System’s voice.
“Does the Host want to unlock the secret of the Rain Fairy’s Legacy?”
“You know?”
Shen Xi conversed with the System in his mind.
“Of course. To unlock it, you only need to spend ten thousand points of demon beast lifespan.”
The System was like a tempting little devil, coaxing Shen Xi to spend.
“Unlock!”
Fortunately, Shen Xi had gained a lot of demon beast lifespan in the Seal during this period.
Aside from the hundreds of thousands he initially spent to increase his combat power, he later earned a significant amount of demon beast lifespan, now having six hundred thousand points left.
Spending ten thousand points was something he could afford.
“Unlock successful! The Rain Fairy’s Legacy is actually within the token, but to obtain the Legacy, the holder must undergo a test.”
“What test?”
“Defeat one hundred enemies who covet the Rain Fairy’s Legacy. This was also the path the Rain Fairy took in her growth, gaining experience through battle, improving her strength, and ultimately becoming a Detachment Realm expert.”
So that’s how it is!
Shen Xi finally understood what was going on.
The Rain Fairy’s Legacy had a test.
And the content of the test was to engage in combat.
This was also the Rain Fairy’s path back then, the path of battle.
To become her successor, one naturally had to achieve this.
As for why the token could only be triggered at the mountainside, it was a result of the Rain Fairy’s careful consideration when she left her Legacy.
Those who stayed on the mountainside were at least in the Houtian Major Completion, with stronger ones even reaching the Xiantian Realm.
Her successor must be able to defeat one hundred experts at or above the Houtian Major Completion.
Furthermore, if Shen Xi wasn’t mistaken, this restriction was also adjusted according to Ye Zirou’s combat power.
Now that Ye Zirou’s combat power had reached the Early Stage of the Acquired Realm through the tempering of the Seal, her opponents naturally couldn’t be too weak.
“Zirou, the Legacy is within the token. You need to continuously defeat one hundred enemies to obtain the Legacy. This is…”
Shen Xi roughly repeated what the System had said.
Hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.
“So that’s what happened!”
“The Rain Fairy, who entered the Martial Dao through battle, is indeed a woman of extraordinary talent.”
“She truly deserves to be called a Fairy; her path of growth alone is something ordinary people cannot achieve.”
“Then what should we do? Do we really have to continuously defeat one hundred enemies?”
“Besides this, there is no other way.”
Liu Yiyi and the others couldn’t help but discuss.
It must be said that the Rain Fairy’s test was indeed not easy.
Defeating enemies of the same level was already very difficult, let alone continuously defeating one hundred enemies of the same level.
Just thinking about it made one’s scalp tingle.
Stamina consumption was a major problem.
Before reaching the Detachment Realm, one could not establish a preliminary connection with heaven and earth, nor did they have a continuous supply of True Qi.
In this situation, being able to defeat a few strong enemies was already a good achievement, let alone one hundred.
“If I don’t try, I’ll regret missing out on the Rain Fairy’s Legacy.”
Finally, Ye Zirou made her decision.
She stepped forward, raising the token in her hand.
“The Rain Fairy’s Legacy you are looking for is in my hands. To obtain the Legacy, you must defeat me.”
Hearing this, the Martial Artists were stirred up.
They stared intently at the token, their eyes filled with doubt, seemingly questioning the truth of Ye Zirou’s words.
“This token doesn’t look simple from its material; maybe it really is the Rain Fairy’s Legacy?”
“No matter what, let’s grab the token first.”
“That’s right, whether it’s true or false, let’s grab it first.”
“Everyone, attack together!”
All the Martial Artists became excited.
In their eyes, this token was as alluring as an unparalleled beauty.
“Who dares to be presumptuous!”
Shen Xi naturally couldn’t stand by and do nothing, unleashing his full aura.
A terrifying sense of oppression surged towards the Martial Artists.
“Shen Xi, you alone can’t stop us.”
“Here, we have dozens of Xiantian Realm experts alone. Even if you are strong, you can stop one, ten, but can you stop dozens of people?”
“What’s more, those of us in the Acquired Realm are not to be trifled with.”
“Two fists are no match for four hands. How many people can you deal with?”
For the Rain Fairy’s Legacy, these Martial Artists, despite fearing Shen Xi, spoke up with a stiff upper lip.
Their biggest advantage was their numbers.
As long as everyone united, Shen Xi would be helpless.
“I have no intention of stopping you from competing for the Rain Fairy’s Legacy, but it must be one by one. If you defeat Zirou in a one-on-one situation, what’s the harm in giving you the token!”
After a pause, Shen Xi said with sharp intent, “Of course, if you plan to attack in a group, then I don’t mind making a move. I truly can’t stop all of you, but with my strength, killing one-third of you should be no problem.”
The Qingying Sword appeared in Shen Xi’s hand.
His attitude was self-evident: if you want to fight, then try it. Do you dare to bet that you won’t be one of the unlucky one-third who get killed?
“This…”
The Martial Artists hesitated.
“Are you planning to defeat us one by one?”
At this moment, someone questioned.
“Don’t worry, I won’t take advantage of others, nor will I make a move. This is Zirou’s battle with you all; I am only responsible for holding the line.”
“Furthermore, even if Zirou defeats you, she won’t take your lives. The losers just need to withdraw voluntarily.”
“How about it? Is that fair enough!”
Shen Xi roughly explained the rules.
The Rain Fairy’s Legacy test required Ye Zirou to continuously defeat one hundred enemies, not to kill them.
So Ye Zirou had no need to kill.
Similarly, the test did not require her to fight one against a hundred, so defeating them one by one was naturally acceptable.
What Shen Xi had to do was ensure that Ye Zirou would not be ganged up on by multiple people.
In a one-on-one situation, with Ye Zirou’s current combat power, it should be no problem.
Moreover, Shen Xi had a trick up his sleeve.
He had already stated that he would not kill, and those who lost would be spared their lives.
This ensured Ye Zirou’s safety to the greatest extent.
“Are you serious about all this?”
Someone expressed doubt.
“A word once uttered cannot be overtaken even by a team of four horses.”
