Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 780 - 779 Legacy Test

"I didn’t expect that by helping this girl detoxify, my Cultivation would actually have a breakthrough, reaching the Tenth Rank of the Third Layer Realm of Immortal Elemental," Xu Ping’an said with a smile to himself.

Running his Chaotic Divine Fire like mad all night had taken a huge toll on his Immortal Elemental.

Now that he had recovered, it was only natural for his Cultivation to make a breakthrough as a matter of course.

This made Xu Ping’an feel a mix of laughter and tears within his heart. Was this the joy of being kind and doing good deeds?

"What a pity that if I could have slept with this girl, my Immortal Elemental would surely have surged, given that she has a Chaos Xuan Yin constitution. Once we engage in Dual Cultivation, the effect would be incomparable to any Superior Grade Immortal Pill," Xu Ping’an thought to himself.

But he wasn’t in a rush, since Gongsun Yao had already agreed to follow him, sooner or later she would be his.

Xu Ping’an was not one of those righteous and moral gentlemen; he wouldn’t pass up such an opportunity for nothing.

Of course, in reality, Xu Ping’an could see that Gongsun Yao had also lived quite a painful life over the years, so lending her a hand wasn’t out of the question.

As for whether Gongsun Yao would truly be willing to be with him in the future, Xu Ping’an wasn’t too concerned.

Soon, Xu Ping’an arrived at the Refining Alliance’s main hall.

Alliance Hierarch Shen Sanqian and the five Great Supreme Elders were also within the hall.

"You’ve come. I thought you wouldn’t make it today," Shen Sanqian said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

Xu Ping’an immediately understood the underlying meaning in Shen Sanqian’s words and replied with a chuckle, "I didn’t expect Alliance Hierarch Shen to be such a gossip."

"Haha, did I say anything wrong? Didn’t you spend your time detoxifying a lady? Do you still have the energy to take on the inheritance trial today? Or shall we reschedule?" Shen Sanqian said with a laugh.

"Hierarch, don’t worry, it won’t affect the inheritance trial. Let’s do it today," Xu Ping’an responded.

"If that’s the case, then follow me," Shen Sanqian said.

After speaking, he led Xu Ping’an towards the mountains behind the Refining Alliance and flew away.

Atop the mountain behind the Refining Alliance was a huge hall.

This hall appeared very ancient and was shrouded in a mysterious aura.

Most importantly, the entire hall seemed to have been forged from extremely tough Divine Iron, resembling a Divine Artifact.

"Is this hall also a Divine Artifact?" Xu Ping’an asked curiously.

"It used to be, but the Artifact Spirit inside has perished, so this hall can only be considered a Semi-Divine Artifact," Shen Sanqian explained.

"The Artifact Spirit perished?" Xu Ping’an was somewhat surprised. Causing the Artifact Spirit of a Divine Artifact to perish was not an easy task and would at least require a Divine Level powerhouse to intervene.

"Hierarch, can you tell me what the situation is in the Divine Realm now?" Xu Ping’an asked curiously.

"I can’t answer that for you, I do not know much myself. If you want to find out, then win the inheritance. Within the inheritance, there should be some information about the Divine Realm," Shen Sanqian told him.

Xu Ping’an nodded his head.

Shen Sanqian continued, "The inheritance trial is in this hall. Go ahead, but it’s very difficult to pass the inheritance trial, so don’t hold your hopes too high."

Xu Ping’an smiled. It seemed that Shen Sanqian didn’t believe he could obtain the Artifact Divine Sect’s inheritance.

Of course, the inheritance had been there for a hundred thousand years, and to this day, no one had been able to obtain it.

No wonder Shen Sanqian was not optimistic about his chances.

Xu Ping’an said no more and walked towards the Inheritance Hall.

As Xu Ping’an stepped into the Inheritance Hall, the hall’s doors automatically opened for him, and once he was inside, they closed again.

Shen Sanqian watched Xu Ping’an enter the hall and gently smiled. He, too, had been that confident once, but ultimately, he had failed to pass the trial.

The expression on Xu Ping’an’s face just now was exactly the same as his own all those years ago.

So he did not believe that Xu Ping’an could obtain the inheritance.

"If you really can obtain the inheritance of the Artifact Divine Sect, then the entire Refining Alliance will also recognize you as its master, but of course, this is an impossible feat, regardless of how heaven-defying your talent is," Shen Sanqian said with a smile.

Having said that, he disappeared on the spot.

...

Upon entering the hall, the surroundings somewhat surprised Xu Ping’an.

At this moment, there sat an old man with white hair and garb within the hall.

The old man had an ethereal demeanor, appearing very extraordinary.

The old man was silently observing Xu Ping’an with a trace of scrutiny in his eyes.

Next to the elder, there were nine steles, which had nothing on them.

However, these nine steles gave him an extremely intense oppressive feeling, and each one was more powerful than the last, especially the final one, which he couldn’t even look at directly.

"Dao Principle Steles, actually with nine of them, and they are each carrying nine different Dao Laws, each one of a higher grade than the last?" Xu Ping’an muttered in amazement to himself.

It seems that the inheritance assessment should be related to the steles before him.

However, as to what it specifically entails, he had no idea.

And who was this elder?

Wasn’t it said that there were no more Artifact Spirits in this hall?

Could it be the Remnant Soul of some powerful entity?

But it didn’t seem quite like it?

Seemingly sensing Xu Ping’an’s thoughts, the elder chuckled and said, "Are you wondering what I am?"

"Junior Xu Ping’an pays respects to the senior," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

"There is no need for formalities. You are here to participate in the inheritance assessment, right? Being able to come here, you must be quite the refining genius. However, wanting to pass the inheritance is not an easy matter, and taking on the inheritance test could cost you your life. Have you thought this through?" the elder said with a smile.

"Lose my life? May I ask senior, what exactly is this inheritance test?" Xu Ping’an asked curiously.

Caressing his beard, the elder smiled and said, "It is the nine steles before you. Atop each stele, there’s a Teleportation Formation that will transport you to a designated place in the Four Great Spirit Realms. You must complete the tasks designated by the steles within the set time to pass the test. Once you’ve passed, the teleportation formation will automatically send you back."

"Transported to designated places in the Four Great Spirit Realms? Senior means that I am to complete the test tasks in the Spirit Realm itself?" Xu Ping’an asked in surprise.

"Correct. The tasks you need to complete are indeed in the Spirit Realm of reality. Some might be tasks you are unwilling to do, while others could be extremely dangerous. Moreover, the tasks on these nine steles increase in difficulty one after the other, so you had better think carefully about whether or not to accept them," the elder said with a smile.

Xu Ping’an showed a thoughtful expression.

Clearly, he had not expected that the test of the Artifact Divine Sect would take this form.

It was just that he did not know what these tasks were.

"I am willing to accept the assessment. How do I undertake the tasks, senior?" Xu Ping’an asked curiously.

"Pour your Soul Power into this stele, and the tasks will naturally appear," the elder replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Xu Ping’an immediately walked towards the first stele.

He then poured his Soul Power into it.

As his Soul Power flowed in, the stele lit up as well.

Xu Ping’an was curious in his heart, what exactly would this first task be?
