589: Chapter 589 Waiting for the rabbit to run into the tree stump, eliminating it in advance!

Trial? Inheritance?

Opportunity! A great opportunity!

Good thing I didn't leave. Who would have thought the opportunity would only appear now!

Is it the inheritance of this remnant soul? Or perhaps the inheritance inside this bronze hall?!

My intuition tells me this inheritance is most likely, at the very least, at the Venerable level!

...

Shouts of excitement and elation.

At this moment, these sounds slowly rose from the mouths of the Prodigies present.

In truth, they had all already begun to think of retreating just moments ago.

But they never expected that at this critical juncture, the situation would take a sudden turn, and the inheritance would emerge so vividly!

Since that's the case, they certainly won't be leaving.

Passing the trial grants the inheritance.

What reason is there to leave?

As members of the younger generation, trials are what they excel at most!

Judging from the aura revealed by this wisp of a remnant soul and the situation of the heavenly staircase.

This inheritance is undoubtedly of immense value!

Therefore, this heavenly staircase trial must be grasped firmly!

Inheritance trial?

And this wisp of a remnant soul... Senior Ming Yan, this...

Faced with the appearance of the remnant soul and the announcement of the trial, Li Fan's first reaction was surprise, followed immediately by looking towards Ming Yan.

Could this remnant soul be a former Hall Master or Hall Disciple of the Blood God Hall?

Could this inheritance be the secret technique required to activate this bronze hall?!

If so, should he also step forward to compete for it?

Ming Yan, at this moment, appeared extremely calm.

To think it's already seeking a Hall Disciple from the outside world... It seems the Blood God Hall has truly perished.

This remnant soul was a confidant of the Hall Master of that generation, now the final guardian of the Blood God Hall. This person harbors no ill intent, but followed the wrong master, ending up in this state. It's rather lamentable.

Ming Yan said slowly.

From his words, it was clear he recognized the identity of this wisp of a remnant soul; in life, Ming Yan had most likely even met them.

Hearing this, Li Fan felt shaken in his heart, yet couldn't help but want to Make complaints internally.

What do you mean 'his state is lamentable'?

Aren't you yourself also reduced to a remnant soul?

Of course, this was just Li Fan's inner, slightly dark Make complaints.

Towards Ming Yan, he still held great respect.

Returning to the topic, Ming Yan's words also contained an important piece of information.

That is, this heavenly staircase trial is screening for a Hall Disciple for the Blood God Hall.

And according to Ming Yan's previous statement, a Hall Disciple can obtain the Blood God Hall's inheritance secret technique and can activate this bronze hall.

Which means...

He has to participate in this heavenly staircase trial?!

Senior Ming Yan, regarding this heavenly staircase trial, should I...

No need to go. No need for such trouble.

Li Fan was just about to ask if he should proceed.

But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Ming Yan.

Li Fan was obviously somewhat puzzled by this.

If he doesn't take the trial, how can he obtain the inheritance?!

Ming Yan quickly provided an explanation.

The Blood God Hall has already perished. The aura of this heavenly staircase trial before us doesn't match the most orthodox version at all. It's entirely maintained by the energy within this wisp of a remnant soul, not by the bronze hall itself.

Therefore, I deduce that this fellow's remnant soul won't last much longer before dispersing. He wants to select a descendant with passable talent before his demise to pass on the inheritance.

In other words, regardless of whether the talent of those present here meets the requirements of past Blood God Hall Hall Disciples, the one who climbs highest on the heavenly staircase will become the new Hall Disciple.

You just need to wait quietly for that Hall Disciple to appear, then use your pupil technique to strike down that fellow's remnant soul, and seize the inheritance from that Hall Disciple.

You only need to wait by the tree for the rabbit!

Hearing Ming Yan's words.

Li Fan couldn't help but have his eyes light up.

If that's the case...

Then there really is no need for him to participate in the trial. Much more convenient!

And since that's the situation...

Li Fan immediately formulated a plan.

That is, he could assist a Prodigy from the Alien Universe and ensure they become the Hall Disciple!

There's no other way.

If a Prodigy from This Universe were to become the Hall Disciple and obtain the inheritance, as their compatriot, it would be somewhat inconvenient for him to seize it.

But if it's a Prodigy from the Alien Universe, that's different.

He could kill them without batting an eye!

...

Returning focus to the scene.

With the appearance of the remnant soul and the heavenly staircase.

Bold and decisive Prodigies immediately began stepping towards the heavenly staircase, embarking on the trial path.

Seeing that no mishaps occurred when these Prodigies stepped onto the heavenly staircase, the remaining Prodigies also began swarming towards it one after another.

Once everyone was on the heavenly staircase.

A terrifying pressure instantly swept over them.

And with each step, that pressure increased exponentially!

Some eager, unwilling-to-fall-behind Prodigies, being too aggressive and taking several steps in quick succession, directly coughed up mouthfuls of blood, their internal organs shattered, frightening them into hastily retreating.

With such a precedent, the other Prodigies dared not act recklessly, all proceeding step by step, cautiously advancing.

The result of this was a rapid differentiation of their respective strength levels.

In just over a dozen breaths, the crowd had divided into three echelons.

The leading first echelon had only a dozen or so people, almost all of them Prodigies from the Alien Universe, with only two being from This Universe!

This was hardly surprising.

The current ratio of Prodigies from the two universes on the scene showed a significant disparity; the majority were Prodigies from the Alien Universe.

And soon.

Those two Prodigies from This Universe in the first echelon finally couldn't withstand it and withdrew one after another.

The entire first echelon now consisted solely of Prodigies from the Alien Universe.

Watching this scene, Li Fan, hidden in the shadows, couldn't help but feel both amused and exasperated.

It seems he doesn't even need to manipulate the outcome.

The Hall Disciple position was destined to be selected from among the Prodigies from the Alien Universe.

However, considering that those Alien Universe Prodigies who failed the trial would leave first, Li Fan couldn't bear to miss such a good opportunity to eliminate them.

Therefore.

Li Fan directly began the preemptive slaughter!

The next moment.

Li Fan activated Annihilation Eye.

Whether they hadn't yet ascended the heavenly staircase or had retreated from it, Prodigies from the Alien Universe immediately began losing their vitality in swathes, falling from the sky.

The entire process could be described as soundless and traceless, eerie to the extreme.

In the blink of an eye.

Apart from the Prodigies from the Alien Universe on the heavenly staircase.

Ninety percent of the remaining Alien Universe Prodigies present had already perished.

Such a sudden and drastic change caused both the group of Alien Universe Prodigies on the heavenly staircase and the This Universe Prodigies present to stare wide-eyed.

What... is going on?!
