Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2101 - 2083: Either Life or Death!
"Is this the Underground Palace you mentioned?" Fang Yan asked the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard, frowning as he looked around.
"No, no..." The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard became tense immediately upon hearing Fang Yan’s words and quickly responded, rushing to one side of the hall and striking the wall.
To Fang Yan’s surprise, just as the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard’s claws were about to hit the wall, a special force appeared, stopping its claws. Due to the emergence of this special force, a pale blue light membrane appeared, and strangely, the membrane was not transparent, preventing any view of what was inside.
"This... this is the real entrance to the Underground Palace!" The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard said to Fang Yan, "I was fooled when I first came here too, but later accidentally discovered this true entrance. Yet even after hundreds of years, I’ve never entered, only lingering at the outer sect, absorbing the Spiritual Energy leaking from inside for cultivation."
"A place like this!" Fang Yan also became intrigued by the membrane, who could have thought a place like this was hidden beneath the swamp.
Ignoring the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard, Fang Yan approached the light membrane and tapped it with his hand, instantly understanding what it was. This was a restriction set by a master to seal everything inside. He wasn’t unfamiliar with this due to previous experiences from his original form, Lin Feng.
Closing his eyes, he stood like a statue, while the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard nearby didn’t understand and dared not move.
About an hour later, Fang Yan opened his eyes, his fingertip suddenly igniting with a faint red Gang Qi, pointing at the pale blue light membrane...
"Boom!"
With a dull roar, the pale blue light membrane was pierced by Fang Yan, revealing a similarly dark entrance. However, this time the entrance was peculiar, with numerous reliefs appearing on the entire wall, and the entrance was a dragon head with a mouth wide open, its two red gemstone eyes emitting a faint red glow, looking somewhat eerie!
It’s opened!
The Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard was astonished at the scene, his eyes almost bulging out. He couldn’t believe this was real; he hadn’t opened it after hundreds of years, yet Fang Yan broke it with a single point. It was unbelievable! Could Fang Yan’s power have reached such a terrifying level? Reflecting on recent events, his heart raced at the thought that if Fang Yan pointed at him like this, he might not even know how he died!
Little did he know, Fang Yan’s seemingly simple action contained much complexity. Without Lin Feng’s previous experiences, even Fang Yan would have taken much longer to open it. It wasn’t as simple as he imagined.
Staring at the dragon head with its mouth wide open, Fang Yan frowned slightly, feeling a sense of discomfort. But since he had come this far, he couldn’t abandon it. Without hesitating further, he walked in.
Meanwhile, the Thousand Poisons Three-Eyed Lizard dared not follow inside, fearing a misunderstanding with Fang Yan. Despite wanting to enter, he didn’t dare and eventually sighed, guarding the outside entrance.
After entering the dragon’s mouth, Fang Yan proceeded down the steps, encountering no danger along the way, puzzling him. Previously, any such site would have special defenses, but there were none here, which was unusual.
With such doubts, Fang Yan walked for over two hours before the steps finally ended, revealing a stone gate blocking his path.
Extending his hand toward the gate, as soon as his hand approached, an unusual situation occurred. Fang Yan felt as though the stone gate threatened to devour his flesh, quickly withdrawing his hand. Seeing the ominous stone gate, Fang Yan realized it wasn’t without defenses—the black gate before him was one!
Considering this, Fang Yan began pondering how to open the gate, grabbing a weapon from the Space Ring and knocking on it, feeling its thickness through the echo. Reflecting for a moment, Fang Yan decided to try using Gang Qi.
Suddenly, Fang Yan unleashed a Fist Aura toward the stone gate, the power immense, like a giant dragon striking the gate. But eerily, as soon as the Fist Aura hit, the gate flashed a black light, instantly causing his Gang Qi to vanish without a trace, as if it had never appeared!
Neither close combat nor ranged Gang Qi attacks worked; the stone gate’s defenses were extraordinary!
Staring at the stone gate, even Fang Yan harbored the thought that any other cultivator would be helpless before it, as all attack methods were ineffective!
Wait...
Suddenly, Fang Yan recalled something—that he was different from others. Apart from these two attack methods, he had a third, because he possessed both the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art and the Nine Ice Divine Control Technique, two entirely opposite spells, along with the Extreme Cold Ice Fire, a Heaven and Earth Strange Fire combining ice and flame!
Thinking of this, Fang Yan sat down on the ground and immediately circulated the Nine Ice Divine Control Technique. Instantly, the temperature around began to drop indefinitely, and in the blink of an eye, the entire passage seemed to have entered an icy world, gradually causing all surroundings to frost over! However, this did not stop. As time passed, the temperature began to plummet to the extent that if anyone else saw this scene, they’d surely think they were mistaken; no individual could accomplish such a terrifying feat.
After a few hours, the temperature had dropped to an incredibly frightening level. It’s no exaggeration to say that even Earth Immortal Realm powerhouses couldn’t withstand such cold. The surrounding stone walls and the stone gate had already turned into ice walls and ice doors!
But just then, Fang Yan suddenly opened his eyes, and the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art suddenly circulated. A Sunburst propelled by Extreme Cold Ice Fire shot towards the stone gate. The reason for using Extreme Cold Ice Fire is because the gate devours Gang Qi, and hitting that gate was crucial in causing an internal burst of heat.
"Boom! Crack..."
The muffled sound rang out, and the Sunburst dissipated into smoke. Immediately following, the spot where the Sunburst struck displayed countless cracks due to being unable to withstand the sudden alternation of heat and cold. Then, with a crisp sound accompanying a groan, the stone gate suddenly shattered.
In an instant, a pit with a diameter of more than a meter appeared on the stone gate, revealing black stones inside. It was evident that the stone gate was indeed very thick, yet its exact thickness was unclear.
However, at this moment, a smile appeared on Fang Yan’s face. Although the stone gate wasn’t opened at once, it was visibly effective now. As long as this idea continued, the stone gate would surely be opened. With this thought, Fang Yan repeatedly used the previous method with a smile.
"Boom! Crack!"
"Boom! Crack!"
...
It’s unknown how many times it was repeated, but finally, with the last explosion, the stone gate was completely breached. By now, the stone gate no longer resembled its original form, having become a circular passage over two meters in diameter.
A thick surge of Spiritual Energy swept over, instantly causing Fang Yan to be startled, for the concentration of this Spiritual Energy defied description. He didn’t know what was inside this stone gate that could seal such rich Spiritual Energy—what was it meant for?
With curiosity in his heart, Fang Yan walked in. As soon as he entered, he was stunned on the spot because the scene before him was truly breathtaking!
Before him was an expansive area, approximately a thousand meters in all directions, with countless Spiritual Medicines growing like wild plants inside. He had already lost track of the years the Spiritual Medicines had grown. Under the nourishment of this overwhelmingly dense Spiritual Energy, these herbs emitted a unique aura, making those outside pale in comparison!
Floating in the void above the space was a gem, emitting not only sun-like radiance but also Spiritual Energy. Without a doubt, this gem was a rare treasure, an indescribable treasure whose origins Fang Yan couldn’t identify!
While Fang Yan was speechless from the shock of the scene before him, suddenly a ray of light appeared beside him, and then this light transformed into the image of an elder with a malevolent expression.
"Senior..." Fang Yan looked at the elder, immediately knowing that this elder was the remnant Primordial Soul left by a powerful figure, and spoke respectfully, "Junior Fang Yan, happened upon this place and opened the treasury left by the senior, hoping for your understanding."
"Since you’ve passed the stone gate challenge, next you must accept the heritage trial from me. Remember, the heritage trial offers only one chance: life or death! If you survive, you will become the heir to my Evil Sky Medicine Venerable; if not, you will leave as a corpse!" the elder said wickedly, looking at Fang Yan.
Upon hearing the elder’s words, Fang Yan’s face immediately showed displeasure. He hadn’t expected to come across such a place that forced people to accept the heritage, thinking it’s no wonder it’s called Evil Sky Medicine Venerable—the methods truly defy expectations.
"Senior, what if I refuse to take the heritage trial?" Fang Yan’s face showed a hint of arrogance, having never heard of being coerced this way. He wanted to see what could be done if he refused the heritage, thinking it was just a sliver of Primordial Soul.
"Huh... boy, in front of me, you don’t even count as an ant!" the elder said wickedly upon hearing Fang Yan, and immediately, the elder emitted a special aura.
"Thud!" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Instantly, Fang Yan was pressured to kneel on the ground by this special aura, no matter how he resisted, he could not stand up again.
Watching the elder’s malevolent smile, Fang Yan’s heart was turbulent, never imagining that even a sliver of Primordial Soul would be terrifying. To what extent would the real Evil Sky Medicine Venerable be terrifying was truly unimaginable!
