87: Chapter 87 My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven.

When Yun Chenfei placed his hand on the fourth stone gate, his heart instantly went cold.

Because he discovered that he couldn't push this fourth stone gate at all.

Unwilling to give up, Yun Chenfei increased his strength and tried again, but the final stone gate remained motionless.

Just as the persistent Yun Chenfei was about to use his magic power to push the door again, a hollow voice sounded in his ears once more.

"Defying the Heavens to change fate is of no avail."

"My Legacy cannot save you either; you should leave."

Hearing this, Yun Chenfei was completely dumbfounded and stood there blankly, unable to move.

"What the hell!"

"I went through all kinds of hardships, risking exploding my body to death, just to get here in the end, and you won't even let me enter the door? What kind of nonsense is this!"

"Five fingers strike together, Samsara Palm!"

Enraged, Yun Chenfei used all his strength to strike the stone gate with a palm attack.

"Boom!"

A deafening sound rang out.

The stone gate was undamaged, but Yun Chenfei's body was sent flying by the impact.

In mid-air, blood constantly spilled from his mouth.

At such a close distance, to dare to unleash the full power of the Samsara Palm—it seemed Yun Chenfei was truly infuriated.

The recoil force directly caused him internal injuries, and that wasn't all; a pressure even more terrifying than before instantly descended upon Yun Chenfei.

His bones, which had just healed, shattered again, and the wounds on his body tore open once more.

"Only this once; do not let it happen again."

As the hollow voice faded, the terrifying pressure on Yun Chenfei's body also vanished.

After his angry strike, Yun Chenfei calmed down.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on? The first and second stone gates rejected me, fine."

"The third stone gate didn't think much of me either, and I endured that too."

"But this fourth stone gate won't even let me enter; isn't that going too far? Am I really that bad?"

Dejected, Yun Chenfei stared blankly at the ground and thought to himself.

"Wait!"

If you string together the words from the four stone gates...

"Aptitude mediocre, Physique impure."

"Fate is rugged, future is bleak."

"Signs of an early death, all due to a nemesis."

"Defying the Heavens to change fate is of no avail."

Are you fortune-telling for me? Forget about you lot, even this Heavenly Dao cannot dictate the fate of me, Yun Chenfei!

"If people want me dead, I will make the world lie with a million corpses!"

"If the gods want to destroy me, I will slaughter all the Heavenly Immortals and gods!"

"If the Buddhas want to save me, I will butcher all the Buddhas in the world!"

"If Heaven wants to bury me, I will bury the Heavenly Dao of this world!"

"My fate is mine, not Heaven's!"

Recalling the words that had come from those four stone gates, Yun Chenfei shouted crazily.

"Boom, rumble!"

Just as Yun Chenfei's words fell, muffled thunder suddenly sounded outside the Yuan Kong Ancient Realm.

"This... is this a reaction from the Heavenly Dao?"

"Could it be that someone nearby made a vow to the Heavenly Dao, or did someone do something that triggered the Heavenly Dao?"

Vice Sect Master looked at the cloudless sky and muttered.

At this moment, many Disciples had already emerged from the Yuan Kong Ancient Realm.

Everyone was beaming with joy, happily heading towards their own Immortal Cave, clearly having obtained good Opportunities in the Yuan Kong Ancient Realm.

If Yun Chenfei saw this scene, who knows if he would snatch all their Opportunities.

Meanwhile, inside the Yuan Kong Ancient Realm.

"Even if I became the first person in these past thousands of years, so what? Don't I still have to obediently go back and look for Opportunities?"

After his crazy shouting, Yun Chenfei glanced at the slightly smaller stone gates that Yi Kuhan had entered.

Just as he was about to walk towards those stone gates, a white light suddenly enveloped him.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Wasn't it said that we would only be teleported out after obtaining an Opportunity?"

"Damn it, not only am I full of anger, but I also came away empty-handed; how am I being teleported out already?"

Seeing himself enveloped in white light, Yun Chenfei panicked.

"Could it be that this is to send me to a better place for a Legacy?"

With a final glimmer of hope, Yun Chenfei's figure gradually disappeared from the spot.

"Damn it! I really was teleported out."

"I am the only man who persisted until the end; wasn't it supposed to send me to a better place for a Legacy?"

Gazing at the familiar scenery of the Sect's back mountain, Yun Chenfei, with a look of disbelief, stood there stunned.

Seeing Yun Chenfei teleported out, Vice Sect Master was just about to go up and ask which stone gate he had entered, but saw him standing there motionless with dull, lifeless eyes.

Vice Sect Master assumed he was comprehending the Legacy he had just obtained, so he immediately dismissed the thought of asking.

After Yun Chenfei was teleported out, Jing Sheng's figure also appeared not far from his side.

The difference was that Yun Chenfei looked utterly lifeless with dull eyes, while Jing Sheng was beaming, his eyes shining with brilliance.

Following that, the figures of Mu Chenfeng, Lei Aotian, and Ge Shangming were teleported out one after another.

At this point, the only person left who had entered the Yuan Kong Ancient Realm was Yi Kuhan, who was still inside receiving a Legacy.

When Jing Sheng, Mu Chenfeng, and the others saw Yun Chenfei, like the Vice Sect Master, they all assumed he was comprehending the Legacy he had obtained.

The four of them tacitly did not speak, but the joy on their faces could not be hidden.

"Flowers don't bloom for a hundred days, and people don't have good fortune forever!"

"Even a person can stumble, and a horse can lose its footing!"

"I'll admit defeat this time!"

"Besides, I didn't come away with nothing; at least I awakened my Bloodline Power and comprehended the incomparably Heaven-Defying Nine Steps to Heaven!"

Standing blankly on the spot, Yun Chenfei kept comforting himself.

Calming his frustrated mood, Yun Chenfei slowly turned around.

"Saint, you're fast; I thought you would stay inside for a long time before coming out."

Seeing Yun Chenfei turn around, Jing Sheng smiled and spoke.

"Don't say I'm fast, and don't say I'm not capable; I'm the man who persisted until the end."

Hearing this, Yun Chenfei said with a dark face, gritting his teeth.

"I guess you also entered the deepest stone gate; I mean you were fast to receive the Legacy, fast to comprehend it, and fast to come out."

Completely unaware, Jing Sheng said "fast" three more times in a row.

"Damn it, can we still have a proper conversation? Can we not mention 'fast'?"

"I didn't even receive a Legacy; it's like it ended before it even began—how could it not be fast!"

Yun Chenfei's heart felt as if it had been ruthlessly trampled by ten thousand mud horses, aching piercingly.

Suddenly, Yi Kuhan's figure also appeared before everyone.

Glancing at the beaming Yi Kuhan, the group immediately understood that she must have obtained a very good Heaven-Defying Legacy.

"Yo, this little face is as black as pot-bottom ash; did you not get anything inside?"

Seeing Yun Chenfei standing there with a dark face, Yi Kuhan asked, hitting the nail on the head.

"With my prosperous-looking appearance, do you think it's possible for me to come away empty-handed?"

As the last bit of a man's stubbornness, Yun Chenfei said stubbornly.
