Chapter 576 Inheritance (39)

The elders were too taken aback to stop them and by the time that they reacted, it was already too late.

Lin Fan less than three meters away from the pillar.

They didn't know what the activation conditions for this pillar was, so they didn't dare act rashly around it. If they rushed in and made things worse for Lin Fan, then they would just be harming him instead of helping him.

So they could only watch and wait to see what would happen.

But even when he was this close, it didn't seem like anything was about to happen.

Lin Fan stopped for a second as he carefully watched the pillar. He wanted to see if there would be any changes, but it didn't seem like there would be.

Only then did he start moving towards it again with slow steps.

When he was right up against it, Lin Fan slowly reached his hand out towards the pillar in front of him.

As he reached his hand out, he was fully on guard. He was prepared to jump back the moment that it seemed like the pillar activated.

But even when his hand reached the pillar, nothing happened to it still.

It was as if this pillar was completely inactive and wouldn't do anything no matter what he did with it.

So all Lin Fan could do was stand there with a confused look on his face as he tried to figure out what the conditions for this pillar were.

But at the same time, he couldn't help trying to use his spiritual sense to check this pillar.

This was his first time being this close to a pillar without it activating.

The other times that he had approached a pillar like this, he had been thrown into a trial that Feng Yu had prepared. He had never been able to just approach a pillar like this and analyze it properly.

So he wanted to seize this chance and see what he could find.

But even though Lin Fan was right up against this pillar, he wasn't able to find a single thing about it.

It was as if there was some kind of special barrier that blocked all perception techniques, so he wasn't able to find anything.

He had also wanted to try using the Appraisal Eyes on the pillar while he had his back turned to everyone else, but he felt a sharp pain in his eyes as he tried to force it out.

He found that if he wanted to use more of the Appraisal Eyes' power, he needed to focus more of his attention on using the Appraisal Eyes. The more that he focused, the stronger his eyes felt.

But he also felt pain when he tried to use more power through the Appraisal Eyes.

It seemed that the system was right.

If Lin Fan was too weak, then there was nothing he could do since he couldn't draw out the full power of the max leveled Appraisal Eyes. If he tried to force it out, all he would be doing is hurting himself since his body couldn't take the full power of the Appraisal Eyes.

This was evident by the pain in his eyes and the drop of blood that came out of the corner of his eye.

If he really tried to force it..he might have even destroyed his eyes.

It was a good thing that Lin Fan recognized his limits and stopped himself before it went too far.

But there was still the problem of him not knowing what to do with this pillar.

Even though he was standing there right in front of it and even reaching his hand out to touch it, there didn't seem to be any reaction from this pillar.

Was it because this pillar was broken or was it because there was some other condition required to activate this pillar?

Seeing that the pillar wasn't reacting at all, the Control Toad that had stayed back out of fear suddenly put on a brave look. It had been staying back since it was afraid of the pillar because of the strange aura that it felt from it, but when it saw that it didn't react at all to Lin Fan approaching it, it was suddenly filled with confidence.

The Control Toad put on an arrogant look and jumped forward, flipping twice in the air before landing on Lin Fan's shoulder.

Then it stood up on its hind legs and used its hands to pat its chest, as if it was telling Lin Fan to leave it all up to it.

The Control Toad then turned to look at the pillar with a focused look on its face as if it was about to do something.

But before this Control Toad could do anything, the snitch suddenly flew over.

It felt annoyed seeing the arrogant look on the Control Toad's face and didn't like how it was acting, so it flew over as if it was about to teach the Control Toad a lesson.

However, the moment that it did fly over..there was a change that happened with the pillar.

The moment that the snitch came within a meter of the pillar, before it could come to Lin Fan's side, the pillar suddenly lit up.

Lin Fan immediately pulled his hand back from the pillar and moved away.

A fearful look appeared on the face of the Control Toad and it immediately curled its body up as it used one hand to slap Lin Fan's shoulder, as if telling him to run as fast as he could.

Even the snitch couldn't help acting surprised before it quickly flew away from the pillar.

The light of the pillar acted just like the rest of the pillars and gathered at the tip of the pillar.

Lin Fan stopped moving back when he saw this, but he still made sure to maintain five meters between him and the pillar.

The Control Toad was still slapping his shoulder with its hand as if telling him to get as far away as possible.

It was surprising how loyal the Control Toad was in this situation.

After all, it could have just jumped off Lin Fan's shoulder and ran away on its own. However, it remained on his shoulder and kept slapping him to urge him to run.

However, Lin Fan just ignored it as he waited to see what would happen.

It was the same thing as the rest of the pillars where the light was suddenly projected in front of it and took the form of a figure of light.

That figure of light then transformed into the familiar figure of Feng Yu that we had all seen before.

Now it was all about what Feng Yu would say.

However, after this version of Feng Yu appeared, it didn't seem like he was going to say anything.

He just stood there looking around the room until his eyes fell onto Lin Fan.

When they did, they immediately went to the Control Toad still slapping him on the shoulder and the snitch that was floating beside him.

When the Control Toad felt this gaze fall onto it, it was even more terrified.

It immediately stopped slapping Lin Fan on the shoulder and laid down, not moving a single inch. It was as if it was playing dead with the way that it just laid there on his shoulder.

But for a toad to play dead like this..it really was a strange scene. historical

When Feng Yu saw this, he couldn't help revealing a faint smile.

However, Lin Fan couldn't help feeling that there was something strange about this.

After all, Feng Yu should have been a recording and he shouldn't have been able to react like this.

So the only other explanation was that he had recorded this ahead of time, but if he did..would he have looked perfectly at the Control Toad like that?

It didn't seem very likely that he would have been able to position his recording perfectly like this.

So just what was going on?

Feng Yu once again didn't say anything as he looked around the room.

When he looked around the room, he couldn't help knitting his brows when he saw all of the spirit beast corpses scattered around. At the same time, he focused on the black liquid that came from these corpses.

After looking around for a bit, he turned back to the Control Toad and gave a sigh.

The Control Toad trembled before trying even harder to pretend to be dead.

Feng Yu just ignored it as he looked at me and said, "It seems like it hasn't been taught properly, so I hope that you will take care of my dear friend's descendant."

This time, Lin Fan was completely shocked when he heard this.

The guess that he had was correct..what Feng Yu had said had just proved it.

After all, it was impossible for him to say something like this unless he had consciousness. So this projection most likely wasn't some kind of recording, it was an action projection that had intelligence.

Feng Yu gave a sigh before clearing his throat and saying, "Congratulations on making it to the fourth trial and passing it."

"Fourth trial?" Lin Fan couldn't help saying.

The other Feng Yu projections had all stated that it was the first trial since they were recordings, but this one clearly said that this was the fourth trial.

There was no mistaking it now, this Feng Yu wasn't just a projection, but an actual part of Feng Yu who had owned this Minor World.

Then did that mean that Feng Yu was still alive?
