Chapter 57: Basic Role of a Toolman
Song Qingsong frowned. "Yue Jianli, what do you mean by this?"
"You don't understand?" Yue Jianli's thumb gently pushed the sheath, and her sword intent surged out. "Do you need me to explain it to you?"
Song Qingsong's hair stood on end. He couldn't help but take a step back.
This woman was not someone to be trifled with!
"What do you mean by that? As a disciple of the Righteous Path, do you want to protect this devil?" he asked.
"Righteous path?" Yue Jianli said disdainfully, "What you did inside this secret realm is worthy of these two words?"
Killing his companions, seizing others’ spirit herbs, sneak attack on the staircase…
Yue Jianli hated him to the extreme.
Song Qingsong's expression turned to embarra.s.sment. However, he forcefully continued, "Even if you look down on me, this inheritance can only be obtained by one person. Could it be that you wish to hand it over to him? If we don't kill Li Ran, we won't have a chance!"
Yue Jianli remained unmoved. She sneered, "Don't tell me you think that if Li Ran has been eliminated, you will have a chance?"
Song Qingsong fell silent.
He was indeed no match for Yue Jianli. But that was better than facing Li Ran. That fellow was simply too terrifying.
"The trial is getting harder and harder. Since he wanted to keep three of us, he naturally had his reasons. Before we know what the final trial is, Li Ran could not be eliminated." Yue Jianli had a premonition that the final trial would be extremely difficult.
If Li Ran wasn’t here, she wouldn't have any confidence in pa.s.sing.
"When the trial is over, I will kill him myself!" Yue Jianli said hatefully.
Song Qingsong scratched his head and felt that something was wrong.
It seemed as if these two were not enemies, but… a young couple arguing?
—
Li Ran changed his clothes and stood in front of the scarlet door that was more than ten meters tall. He raised his head and looked up at the huge signboard.
The two words on the signboard were filled with strength, and they contained the principles of the Grand Dao. With just a single glance, one's soul was sent into turmoil.
Heaven Palace Sect.
"The tone of the writing is not small…" Li Ran shook his head. "He really thinks of himself as the Jade Emperor*.”
[TLN: Jade Emperor is considered to be the ruler of heaven, so Li Ran was probably implying that the one who wrote the board thinks of himself as the best.]Yue Jianli walked to his side, her eyes flas.h.i.+ng with surprise.
At this moment, Li Ran's qi was surging and his vitality was as strong as a dragon. Clearly, he had recovered to his peak.
"Not even the time for an incense stick to burn has pa.s.sed? So fast?" Yue Jianli sighed in her heart. “What a monster…"
Little did she know that this secret realm with abundant qi was simply the best nourishment for his heavenly arts.
Not only did Li Ran's recovery speed become faster, but even his cultivation was also accelerated.
He looked at Song Qingsong and grinned. Song Qingsong's heart trembled. He hastily lowered his head and broke out in cold sweat.
"He didn't know what had just happened…"
【The end of the third trial…】
【Three people advanced…】
【The final trial begins now!】
As soon as the words in the air dissipated, the magnificent palace slowly opened. Looking over, the only thing present was deep darkness. It was impossible to see anything.
"Let's go." Li Ran directly walked inside.
The two hurriedly followed. Inside was a corridor, surrounded by darkness that could not be dispelled. Apart from the candlelight on both sides, there was no light.
The three walked along the corridor for a long time before finally reaching the end.
A magnificent palace was before them.
The atmosphere was solemn and the bright pillar was pristine.
On the scarlet pillar lies an engraved golden dragon that could enchant one’s soul.
On the ceiling was a large pearl that illuminated the entire s.p.a.ce.
However, this was not the main focus.
The three stared blankly at the huge coffin in front of them.
What was going on?
No throne, nor an Immortal Emperor, only a coffin?
"Could it be that this is not an Immortal Emperor's bedchamber, but an Imperial Mausoleum?" Song Qingsong was confused.
Li Ran and Yue Jianli looked at each other. They felt that something was wrong.
This coffin was of the Immortal Emperor? To bury himself in the bedchamber was simply too discrete.
Yue Jianli asked, "Why hasn't the trial content been released yet?"
After some thought, Li Ran said to Song Qingsong, "Go, open the coffin."
"Ah?" Song Qingsong was startled, and he shook his head like a rattle drum. "This place is filled with strangeness. I dare not go."
"If you don't open the coffin lid, I'll open your head. Choose for yourself," Li Ran coldly said.
He had repeatedly let this guy go, waiting for this moment. As a toolman, one should understand their own role.
Song Qingsong shuddered as he turned to Yue Jianli. However, the other party held her sword in silence. Clearly, she had tacitly agreed to this outcome.
"Fine, I'll go!"
Song Qingsong was helpless. He could only grit his teeth and walk to the black coffin. He grabbed the coffin board and pushed it hard.
Kacha!
A crack appeared in the coffin as the black mist came out. At the same time, words appeared in the air.
【The final trial initiated.】
"As expected, as long as you can open the coffin, the trial will start…"
However, just immediately after, the three were stunned.
The texts in the air:
【First Trial: Eliminate the Demons… Partic.i.p.ant: Li Ran, Yue Jianli.】
【Second Trial: Kill the Intruders… Partic.i.p.ant: Song Qingsong.】
The final trial by fire was actually two different missions!
