395: The Holy Lord appears, Holy Light Body Refining Stage!

Xuan Tianhong was the first to exclaim in excitement; as a descendant of the Saint Lord, he naturally knew what the Saint Lord looked like!

Without the slightest hesitation, Xuan Tianhong knelt down directly, kowtowing towards the old man's phantom and saying,

"A descendant of the Saint Lord, Xuan Tianhong, greets the Saint Lord!"

The others from the Six Veins, seeing the Celestial Pivot Vein Master's posture, immediately followed suit, kneeling on the ground and saying in unison,

"Greetings, Saint Lord!!!"

Everyone else was also incredibly excited at this scene.

They could actually witness the Saint Lord's demeanor with their own eyes? This was a peerless powerhouse who shook the Eastern Domain a hundred thousand years ago!

So, people began to kneel and bow one after another.

However, those from the Four Great Factions, some Legacy factions, and even some Loose Cultivators with high aspirations did not perform the so-called kneeling ritual, but rather bowed with cupped hands.

They had their own Legacy and beliefs, and they were not obligated to kneel just because they saw the Saint Lord.

"Hehe, everyone, please rise."

As the words fell, a faint ripple emanated, straightening the forms of all who had knelt and bowed.

"I am a wisp of the Saint Lord's will, guarding the Saint Lord Inheritance for a hundred thousand years. Now that the time has come, the Saint Lord Inheritance shall finally appear!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd erupted in an uproar!

Everyone's emotions were incredibly high, and they stared eagerly at the Saint Lord's phantom.

Suddenly, someone asked,

"Saint Lord, how can one obtain your Legacy?!"

"Well asked, this is precisely what I am about to say."

"Before his death, the Saint Lord established five Legacy trials, comprehensively assessing Cultivators' Physical Body, Origin Qi, Divine Soul, will, and Comprehension Ability. Within these Legacy trials, there are also Opportunities hidden. You only need to pass the five major checkpoints to have a chance to contend for the final Saint Lord Inheritance!"

"However, within the Legacy, life and death are not guaranteed. If you wish to contend for the Saint Lord Inheritance, you must be prepared to face anything. I will not guarantee your safety!"

"Additionally, besides the Saint Lord Inheritance, there are also 39 other Legacies left here, collected by the Saint Lord during his lifetime. Each of these Legacies is extremely precious in today's Eastern Domain. Now that the Saint Lord Inheritance has appeared, these 39 Legacies will also be given to Cultivators who perform exceptionally well in this trial!"

"Of course, for a Legacy, strength is indeed very important, but Opportunity is still the top priority. As long as the Opportunity arrives, even if you are in the Qi Refinement Stage, you will have a chance to obtain a Legacy."

"So... everyone, do not give up easily..."

"Finally, to add one more point, within the Saint Lord's space, the flow of time will become slower, with a ratio of one to fifty compared to the outside world. This means that for every day that passes outside, fifty days pass within the Legacy. So, you have approximately forty years to pass the trials. Everyone, anything is possible!"

The Saint Lord's phantom continuously spoke, and the Cultivators below began to grow increasingly frenzied!

"What?! There are actually thirty-nine other Legacies!"

"A Legacy collected by someone of the Saint Lord's caliber must be incredibly powerful. I must strive to obtain one of them!"

"If that's the case, even if I don't get the Saint Lord Inheritance, just getting any other Legacy would be a massive gain!!!"

"Useless trash, you want to contend for a Legacy? Let alone thirty-nine, even if there were three hundred ninety, it wouldn't be your turn!"

"Damn it, you want to die? I'll grant your wish!"

Unbeknownst to them, bloodshot eyes had appeared in everyone's gazes. The words the Saint Lord's phantom had just spoken held too much appeal for them!

Lu Hao sat in the distance on the Stubborn Ox, calmly observing everyone's expressions and shaking his head.

From their current expressions, he already knew that even if Demonic Thought didn't employ any other methods, he should still be able to complete the blood sacrifice of half the people.

Perhaps even far more!

If someone were to obtain a Legacy, it's possible that only one-tenth of the people here would remain after fighting!

He had still underestimated the madness of Cultivators when facing a Legacy and their path of cultivation!

After a commotion, the phantom's expression slowly grew solemn, and he said in a deep voice,

"Now, the Legacy trial officially begins! Everyone, I wish you good luck!"

A flash of immeasurable Holy Light swept through, and instantly all the Cultivators vanished from their original spots, all pulled into the first Legacy trial!

After everyone disappeared, the Saint Lord's phantom slowly vanished, and in its original place, a light golden light cluster appeared, with two thin hands and feet, looking very comical.

"Phew, I'm exhausted. The Legacy trial has finally begun. Next, it's just a matter of continuously absorbing the essence blood and Bloodline of the deceased Cultivators!"

"Oh, no, I also need to pay attention to Su Lin Yun. At critical moments, I must provide some assistance. But looking at her talent, plus that purity of the Saint Lord Bloodline, she can probably pass a few levels."

"However, to prevent her from conflicting with others, forget it, I'll set a restriction that no one can interfere with another's Legacy. Her cultivation is still relatively too weak."

So, in everyone's minds, the Saint Lord's voice appeared once again:

"Everyone, to maintain fairness during the Legacy period, no one is allowed to harm others during the Legacy trial. Those who violate this will have their Divine Soul annihilated!"

"What?! Dammit, dammit!!!"

The Celestial Pivot Vein Master gritted his teeth upon hearing this. He had originally decided to eliminate Su Lin Yun during the Legacy trial, but since the Saint Lord had spoken, he was helpless.

That Eternal Life remnant would have to live a little longer!

"Hmph! You're lucky. Once I obtain the Legacy, you'll be the first one I kill!"

...

The boundless sea of Holy Light began to boil, and within the sea of Holy Light, an object suddenly appeared, emitting a milky white glow.

At first, only a flat surface appeared, and then it revealed a staircase-like appearance.

Finally, as time passed, its full form appeared before all the Cultivators' eyes!

Every single Cultivator who entered the Legacy stared dumbfounded at the colossal object before them!

What appeared before everyone's eyes was a Heaven Rank staircase that seemed to be cast from solidified milky white Holy Light!

The staircase was over a hundred zhang wide, each step crystal clear, emitting a soft yet incredibly heavy light. On the surface of the steps, profound runes subtly flowed.

As for its height, looking up from the lowest step, it was boundless. No matter what methods everyone used, they could not see the end.

The runes were incredibly strange; just by looking at them, one felt their gaze constantly sinking, sinking. This pulling sensation was extremely painful!
