174: The inheritance of the demon saint!
Deep beneath the abyss, within the Blood-colored Palace, inside the Secret Realm.
Young Master Tang was still idly lying on the rocking chair, lost in thought.
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul outside had no idea what to say about this.
In its heart, it was secretly sneering.
Young Master Tang was wasting time like this; how was he going to pass this test?
Hmph!
It wanted to see how Young Master Tang would comprehend more than ten Laws within a month.
With his attitude, he would only find a dead end.
When that time came, it would not show any mercy.
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul sneered in its heart.
Compared to Young Master Tang, Murong Xianer was the other extreme.
Isn't that right?
In just a few days, she had already comprehended several Laws.
Furthermore, she was still systematically comprehending new Laws.
She showed no trace of Young Master Tang's laziness.
"Young man, are you really doing well like this?"
At some point, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul appeared in the Secret Realm, in front of Young Master Tang.
Looking at Young Master Tang, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul asked with a fake smile.
"Is there a problem?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Young Master Tang retorted.
"..."
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul opened its mouth, not knowing what to say.
Immediately, it was so angry it laughed.
"I hope you can still be so unyielding when the month ends."
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul said faintly, giving Young Master Tang a cold look.
"You don't need to worry about that, Your Excellency."
"I will take responsibility for myself."
Taking a sip of wine, Young Master Tang said leisurely.
Young Master Tang's words truly infuriated the Blood-colored Remnant Soul.
For a moment, it didn't know what to say.
In its heart, Young Master Tang was clearly an arrogant madman.
This kid couldn't possibly think that comprehending the Laws of the Immortal Realm was easy, could he?
Ridiculous!
Young Master Tang calmly glanced at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, not saying much.
Moreover, he was very clear in his heart.
Even if he said it, the other party probably wouldn't believe it.
After all, he had only recently Ascended and had already comprehended all the Laws of the Immortal Realm.
Who would believe that if it were spoken aloud?
It was just that his strength was still very weak, and he couldn't easily use various Laws.
If not, even if he wasn't invincible, he would be close, right?
Afterward, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul quietly looked at Murong Xianer.
As for Young Master Tang?
It adopted an 'out of sight, out of mind' attitude.
In its heart, Young Master Tang was no different from a dead person.
As long as this fellow couldn't demonstrate more than ten Laws of the Immortal Realm when the month ended.
When that time came, it would absolutely not be merciful!
Actually, it was just that it hadn't heard the conversation between the two when they first entered the Secret Realm.
Otherwise, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul's expression would probably be very interesting, right?
This test was no different from a warm gesture for Young Master Tang and Nie Keke.
While zoning out, Young Master Tang occasionally checked on the situation in his internal space.
When he looked at the Little Mouse, his heart was filled with anticipation.
He hoped the Little Mouse's transformation wouldn't disappoint him, right?
Also, Yiyi and Wanrou were about to Breakthrough.
His own Breakthrough speed, however, was a bit behind.
But then, Young Master Tang became incredibly calm again.
His situation was a bit special!
Moreover, he was already on the verge of a Breakthrough.
What was there to be conflicted about?
Yiyi had said that the further he went, the faster his Breakthrough speed would become!
Now, it was just the beginning.
Days passed, and in a blink of an eye, the time came to the last day of the test.
Early in the morning, Murong Xianer slowly opened her eyes.
Looking at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, she cleanly displayed more than ten Laws.
Then, Murong Xianer and the Blood-colored Remnant Soul both looked at Young Master Tang, who was dozing off in the rocking chair.
"Young man, is there any regret now?"
Looking at Young Master Tang, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul sneered.
"Regret?"
"Why should I regret?"
Pursing his lips, Young Master Tang said with an air of composure.
Then, he waved his right hand.
In an instant, more than ten Laws burst forth together.
Seeing this scene, both Murong Xianer and the Blood-colored Remnant Soul were momentarily breathless.
This was possible too?
Are you kidding me?
Especially the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, it now didn't know what to say.
Young Master Tang's Prodigy was truly beyond its imagination.
Terrifying!
Absolutely terrifying!
Logically speaking, one shouldn't even be able to glimpse the power of Laws before reaching the Golden Immortal Realm.
But these two individuals in front of it, one was more Prodigy than the other!
Wasn't this little girl only at the Late Stage True Immortal Realm?
She could actually comprehend so many Laws so easily?
This boy, whose strength was unclear, was even more outrageous.
Looking at the two of them, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul didn't know what to say.
It gave them a deep look, then waved its hand.
Immediately, the Secret Realm disappeared.
The three of them returned to the edge of the altar.
"Choose your Treasure Trove!"
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul said meaningfully, looking at the two of them.
Exchanging glances, Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer swiftly flew to different altars.
Soon, each carried away the Treasure Trove they had chosen.
Returning to each other's side, the two tacitly opened the Treasure Trove in their hands.
The Treasure Trove in Young Master Tang's hand contained a blood-colored crystal, the size of a head, radiating Devilish Qi.
Murong Xianer's Treasure Trove contained a secret Movement Technique.
Without any hesitation, Young Master Tang gave the blood-colored crystal to Luo Yiyi.
Anyway, he didn't need it right now.
Why not let Luo Yiyi use it to improve her strength?
Murong Xianer, at Young Master Tang's implied suggestion, also put away the red jade slip in her hand.
Then, the two looked at the remaining five altars, and at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul.
"The next test is a test of luck."
Looking at Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul said with a chuckle.
"Luck?"
Hearing the Blood-colored Remnant Soul's words, Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer were both a bit confused.
"That's right!"
"Luck!"
"Among the remaining five Treasure Troves, three contain countermeasures powerful enough to eliminate a quasi-Saint."
"If your luck is bad, you will all be eliminated together."
"If your luck is good enough, you will get the last two Treasure Troves, and the remaining three Treasure Troves will be destroyed by the rules here."
"Begin!"
Looking at Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul said unhurriedly.
Hearing the Blood-colored Remnant Soul's words, Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer both didn't know what to say.
This... "Do we each have to choose a Treasure Trove?"
After regaining his composure, Young Master Tang asked tentatively.
"No!"
"You can also have one person responsible for choosing two Treasure Troves."
Shaking its head, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul replied.
"Since that's the case, let me choose?"
Subconsciously, Young Master Tang looked at Murong Xianer and asked.
"No problem."
Nodding lightly, Murong Xianer readily agreed.
She also felt that Young Master Tang's luck should be Heaven-Defying.
His various performances all along were enough to explain many things.
Under the gaze of Murong Xianer and the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, Young Master Tang casually pointed at two Treasure Troves.
Just after he finished choosing the Treasure Troves, the remaining three Treasure Troves directly vanished.
What this meant was self-evident.
Clearly!
Young Master Tang had made the correct choice.
Looking at Young Master Tang, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul was a bit stunned.
This kid, wasn't his luck a little too good?
How did he do it?
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul was truly at a loss as to how to explain this.
Beside them, Murong Xianer secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Just now, she had already prepared to use her strongest trump card to escape with Young Master Tang.
Now it seemed, it was completely unnecessary.
Then, Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer each took one Treasure Trove.
This time, the Treasure Young Master Tang obtained was a blood-colored demonic sword radiating Devilish Qi.
The Treasure Murong Xianer obtained was a Movement Technique.
Young Master Tang also gave this demonic sword to Luo Yiyi.
Anyway, he possessed the even more formidable Peerless Evil Sword.
He truly had no use for this demonic sword.
"There's one last test, are you two interested?"
Just as Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer were about to leave, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul suddenly spoke out of nowhere.
"What test?"
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul's words caught the two off guard.
Young Master Tang's face also showed an interested expression.
There's still a test?
It seemed there were good things waiting for him?
"A Demon Saint's Legacy."
Smiling faintly, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul slowly said.
Hearing the Blood-colored Remnant Soul's words, Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer were both stunned.
A Demon Saint's Legacy?
It seemed this palace was indeed not simple!
At the same time, their hearts were filled with fervor.
Saints were already top-tier existences in the Immortal Realm, okay?
As for even stronger existences comparable to the Heavenly Dao, or Great Dao Realm existences, those were as rare as Phoenix feathers and Qilin horns, okay?
"So, if we pass the test, we can get this Demon Saint's Legacy?"
Recovering, Young Master Tang asked.
"That's right."
"Of course, if you fail, you will pay the price with your lives."
Nodding, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul slowly said.
As it finished speaking, it stared intently at Young Master Tang and Murong Xianer.
Clearly, it was waiting for their reply.
"Xian'er, what do you think?"
Turning his head to look at Murong Xianer, Young Master Tang asked.
"How about we continue to accept the test?"
Looking at Young Master Tang, Murong Xianer asked in return.
"Okay."
Without any hesitation, Young Master Tang readily agreed.
A Demon Saint's Legacy?
Speaking of which, he had devoured half of the demonic origin immortal lotus.
He wondered if this could bring him any help?
Young Master Tang mumbled to himself.
Then, the two nodded at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul.
Their meaning was self-evident.
"Since that's the case, let's begin!"
After saying that, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul waved its hand again.
In an instant, a blood pool several tens of feet in diameter appeared in front of the two.
The blood in the pool emitted extremely violent energy and Devilish Qi fluctuations.
Even the surrounding space showed dense spatial cracks.
It was evident how terrifying the blood pool in front of them was.
"Don't tell us that the so-called test is this blood pool in front of us, right?"
Glancing at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, Young Master Tang couldn't help but ask.
"That's right."
“This test is for you to jump into the blood pool and absorb the demonic blood energy.”
“As long as you can completely devour the demonic blood energy in the blood pool and survive, you will have passed the test.”
“Otherwise, you will be exploded to death and your Dao will vanish.”
“You still have a chance to back out now.”
“Later, it will be too late.”
Nodding, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul slowly said.
“…”
Hearing the Blood-colored Remnant Soul’s words, Tang Tian didn’t know what to say.
Similarly, Murong Xian’er also felt a sense of disarray in the wind.
This… However, after exchanging glances, both of them instantly made their choice.
That was to jump into the blood pool.
Instantly, two screams rang out.
Whether it was Tang Tian or Murong Xian’er, both were instantly enveloped by the violent blood in the blood pool.
Both of them began to passively devour the energy of the blood pool.
“These two little fellows are quite interesting.”
Looking at the two, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul muttered to itself.
Its tone was full of surprise.
And it was true!
Their performance truly caught it off guard.
Originally, it thought that the two would instantly be exploded by the blood pool’s energy.
After all, even a Demon Race Prodigy would meet the same end here.
But it hadn't expected that the two would actually endure.
Moreover, it seemed that their Physical Bodies were not ordinarily strong.
Especially Tang Tian’s performance, which left it dumbfounded.
This kid’s devouring speed was actually becoming more and more astonishing?
The most outrageous thing was!
He was also frantically tempering his Physical Body?
Even top-tier Laws like the Devouring Law had appeared?
Looking at Tang Tian, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul was filled with shock.
This kid, was he really just a Human Race member?
Why could a Human Race member be so Prodigious?
How did he do it?
Similarly, Murong Xian’er’s performance was only slightly inferior.
She was also frantically devouring the energy of the blood pool!
“Could it be that these two little fellows are the fated ones?”
“A Human Race Prodigy actually obtaining a Demon Saint’s Legacy? How strange!”
Looking at Tang Tian, then at Murong Xian’er, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul muttered to itself.
However, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul didn’t dwell on it too much.
Anyway, this was a good thing for it.
Once the two obtained the Legacy, it would regain its freedom.
What else could be a good thing?
At the same time, within Tang Tian’s internal space.
Looking at the demonic sword in her hand, and then looking up at the sky.
Luo Yiyi’s pretty face showed a surprised expression.
“I really didn’t expect that the Treasure Trove my husband found would actually be a Demon Saint’s Legacy.”
Shaking her head and chuckling, Luo Yiyi muttered to herself.
However, she didn’t pay too much attention and continued her seclusion.
Currently, she was about to Breakthrough.
Also in seclusion was Jiang Wanrou.
Like Luo Yiyi, she was also on the verge of a Breakthrough.
Having awakened the Human Emperor Bloodline and Nine-tailed Fox Bloodline, her Cultivation talent was not ordinarily strong.
In addition, Tang Tian had not given her any less Cultivation resources during this time.
Naturally, it would be difficult for her strength not to advance by leaps and bounds!
Southern Immortal Realm, central region.
At the Assassin Alliance’s lair, on this day, an uninvited guest arrived.
A white-haired Old Daoist.
Immediately, an old figure wearing a blood-colored mask met with the Old Daoist.
“What?”
“Didn’t we agree to cooperate with you?”
“Now you come running to us, what exactly do you intend to do?”
Looking at the Old Daoist in front of him, the old figure with the blood-colored mask asked with great dissatisfaction.
“Your Excellency, please calm down.”
“This humble Taoist is only here to tell you one thing.”
Waving his hand, the Old Daoist said expressionlessly.
“What is it?”
With a cold snort, the old figure with the blood-colored mask asked.
“Our people have discovered the whereabouts of Tang Tian and his group.”
“Currently, they are in a forbidden zone.”
“Furthermore, some of our experts from Wuji Taoist Temple have been killed.”
“You tell me, shouldn’t we send out all our forces and jointly eliminate them?”
After a moment of silence, the Old Daoist said with Killing Intent.
“In that case, let’s do as you say!”
“Otherwise, if this kid continues to grow, we will be the only ones to suffer.”
Nodding, the old figure with the blood-colored mask slowly said.
Soon, the two began to discuss.
When they talked about Murong Xian’er, both of them felt a great headache.
They truly couldn’t afford to provoke this Young Miss!
Not to mention them, even the forces behind them couldn’t afford to provoke her.
Looking at the entire Immortal Realm, which force dared to say it could steadily suppress the Alchemist Guild?
The Alchemist Guild’s power, financial resources, and foundation were simply too astonishing!
Eventually, the two reached a consensus.
If Murong Xian’er were to interfere, they would just have to Seal her.
Afterward, they would go to the Alchemist Guild to apologize.
As for Tang Tian?
They absolutely had to eliminate him!
Tang Tian’s various performances had already made the two feel an unprecedented threat.
At the edge of the abyss where Tang Tian was, at this moment, corpses were strewn everywhere.
Whether it was the Golden Jiao Dragon, or Jiang Junlin, or the Blood-colored Demon Wolves.
All of them had numerous dense wounds on their bodies.
“This isn’t going to work like this!”
“How about we leave here first?”
Looking at Jiang Junlin, the Golden Jiao Dragon said in a muffled voice.
“No.”
“We must wait for Young Master here.”
“If we leave and are captured alive, wouldn’t we become a bargaining chip for others to threaten Young Master?”
Shaking his head, Jiang Junlin decisively rejected the Golden Jiao Dragon’s suggestion.
“This…”
Jiang Junlin’s words left the Golden Jiao Dragon speechless for a moment.
Upon careful thought, it also felt that Jiang Junlin’s worries were not unfounded.
If it were someone else, perhaps they wouldn’t care about anyone’s life or death.
But could the master be the same?
The master was a very protective existence!
At the same time, he was also a vengeful person!
Just then, an old, blurred voice sounded in mid-air.
“You don’t have to worry.”
“Before Young Master Tang returns, if anyone dares to lay a hand on you, this old woman will not be polite.”
Hearing this voice, Jiang Junlin and the Golden Jiao Dragon couldn’t help but look at each other.
However, they quickly reacted.
Presumably, this was Young Miss Murong’s Dao Protector?
It’s just that they didn’t know what strength the other party possessed?
Given Young Miss Murong’s status, this person’s strength surely wouldn’t be weak, right?
“Thank you, Senior!”
After reacting, Jiang Junlin and the others looked up at the sky and said in unison.
Tang Tian didn’t know what was happening in the outside world.
Currently, he only felt himself becoming unprecedentedly powerful.
And he was still rapidly getting stronger.
However, the pain of devouring the blood pool’s energy almost made him faint.
Now, he was only relying on his willpower to barely hold on.
Murong Xian’er, beside him, was even worse off.
She had already collapsed weakly beside Tang Tian, having fainted.
But thankfully, as time passed, the blood pool’s energy had been almost completely devoured by the two.
Now, the blood pool was almost clear to the bottom.
“How is it?”
“Did we pass the test?”
Opening his eyes and looking at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, Tang Tian asked.
“Almost!”
Nodding, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul replied.
The Blood-colored Remnant Soul’s words almost made Tang Tian faint.
Almost?
What did that mean?
Soon, he understood what the Blood-colored Remnant Soul’s words meant.
Just as he was about to completely devour the blood pool’s energy!
Another pool of blood, identical to the previous one, appeared out of thin air in the blood pool!
“You two are taking the test.”
“Therefore, you must devour two pools of blood.”
Looking at Tang Tian, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul said leisurely.
“You didn’t say that just now.”
Staring at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, Tang Tian said almost through gritted teeth.
“Times change!”
However, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul’s words almost made Tang Tian faint from anger.
Damn it!
Was that a human thing to say?
“I hope you keep your promise this time.”
“Otherwise…”
Looking deeply at the Blood-colored Remnant Soul, Tang Tian said with a forced smile.
A crazy glint also flashed in his eyes.
If necessary, Tang Tian wouldn’t mind eliminating the other party.
Hearing Tang Tian’s words and meeting his gaze, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul was stunned.
However, it still nodded and said nothing more.
Madman!
At the same time, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul cursed inwardly.
How could it not understand the meaning in Tang Tian’s eyes just now?
Without any further nonsense, Tang Tian once again entered a frantic devouring mode.
However, this time, it wasn’t him who was devouring, but the Mysterious Purple Pearl in his internal space.
There was nothing he could do; his Physical Body had already reached its limit.
If he continued to devour frantically, he was worried he would injure himself.
Immediately, purple little whirlpools appeared around Tang Tian and Murong Xian’er.
Seeing this scene, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul was a bit slow to react.
It also felt a sense of unease and suspicion in its heart.
What exactly were these little whirlpools?
Why did it feel an extreme danger?
As if they could devour it.
Thinking of these, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul felt an incredible sensation in its heart.
It understood Tang Tian less and less.
How deeply was this kid hiding his true strength?
Why did a young Human Race member give off such a profound and unfathomable feeling?
“It seems that the Legacy here will truly fall into the hands of these two little fellows.”
Sighing, the Blood-colored Remnant Soul muttered to itself with a complex tone.
If it could, it would want to claim the Legacy for itself.
But now, it seemed this was impossible.
Just thinking about it made it feel incredibly frustrated.
