Time passed quickly, with many managing to advance one or two steps, while very few lucky ones advanced more than three steps before reaching their limits at each attempt.

In the center, just a few meters away from reaching towards the old and ancient building, stood two small figures. A little more than 5 meters behind the two of them was Xuan Li, and 10 meters behind her were all the cultivators in the Chi Gathering stage, followed by the Foundation Establishment stage.

The Golden Core stage powerhouses managed to advance several meters as they forced their cultivations and tried to break through the suppression they had, catching up to several of the Foundation Establishment cultivators. But that was as far as they got only.

"This is harder than I thought."

The 16-year-old muttered wearily as he steadied his breathing after taking another step. After several hours, he had advanced just over a dozen meters, approaching what appeared to be the boundary of the formation and stepping out.

The information that they were trapped inside a formation spread all over the place, proving that it was some kind of special test to temper and test everyone.

Then, the 16-year-old boy turned to his side, looking with a dignified and worried expression at the little girl following in his footsteps, not lagging behind and keeping up the pace. A sense of worry kept growing inside him.

"Her martial sister isn't behind either..." He glanced back and looked at Xuan Li who was approaching quickly but steadily.historical

It was clear that both girls had also realized the secret of this formation.

"If I don't hurry, they will advance faster than me and they can obtain this sect's inheritance first." He took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality, withdrew his gaze and focused entirely on making his energy continue to flow in his body.

The Chi formed a slight barrier around his body, allowing him to move forward about two more steps.

"Ahm?" Lang Qingzu was surprised to see this martial fellow advance another two more steps. At this moment she was somewhat tired, with her body being suppressed and she could no longer take another step.

"Zu'er! If you can no longer advance, calm down. It doesn't matter if we don't win, remember what the ancestor said!"

Xuan Li took a deep breath and when she saw Lang Qingzu want to take another step, she shouted softly for fear of interrupting the others.

"Mhmm... okay!" Lang Qingzu hesitated for a moment before nodding and taking a step back, weakening the suppression in her body and sitting back down to concentrate.

Xuan Li let out a sigh as she looked at Lang Qingzu. She had clearly seen that Lang Qingzu seemed to have a competitiveness with this boy of the same age as her, so she might get excited and get a little out of control, not wanting to be left behind.

"Who are those three kids? What family or clan do they belong to?"

"I don't know! They probably belong to a powerful sect!"

"But I've never seen or heard of them before! With those superior cultivation talents they clearly should be famous super geniuses!"n(0)vel(b)(j)(n) was the first platform to present this chapter.

"I remember! That boy I think belongs to one of the ancient families of Qing Wei City! If I remember correctly, he's from an ancient family that has been in decline, the Yang family!"

"And those two girls? I've never seen or heard of the two of them before..."

"Shh! Shut up! Those two girls are with that young grandmaster! That young man probably belongs to a super family or powerful sect, maybe he's a real young master!"

"If we disturb them, we might incur his wrath!"

Several gazes were directed towards Ling Tian, who was currently leaning against a huge rock as he continued to watch both girls without paying attention to others.

Some guys who had some thoughts related to the two girls completely stopped to listen to the whispers of the others, especially those who came later and didn't know about this young man's terrifying power.

* Boom! *

* Rumble!*

Then, a terrifying force covered the place as those who had not entered the formation felt difficulty breathing. They quickly fell to their knees as the pressure increased, with some of them slamming their faces on the ground as they couldn't take it anymore.

"Who?"

"What senior has arrived?"

"Please withdraw your majestic aura, senior! We don't want any trouble!"

Quickly the cultivators began to plead as they unsuccessfully tried to get up.

But no one noticed that Ling Tian was still calm as if nothing, leaning on the huge rock as he continued to watch Lang Qingzu and Xuan Li, with no one entering his eyes. Even the terrifying aura didn't affect him.

"Hoho? It's an interesting ruin left behind by an ancient powerful expert."

An old but powerful voice full of vigor spread throughout the place, reaching everyone's ears clearly.

A figure finally appeared in the sky, a majestic white robe waving in the wind. An aura radiated terrifyingly from this figure as he watched everyone in the place.

This person was clearly an old man, about 60 years old, with an arrogant but serious expression. His gaze did not fall on any of the people, it simply focused on the center of the place, towards the old ruined building. A powerful spirit sense swept out, heading towards the center, the building that looked like an old pavilion.

"Hmm?"

Frowning, the old man couldn't help but extend his spirit sense several times when he couldn't break through the building in the center. The terrifying aura that emanated without discretion clearly surpassed those cultivators at the Golden Core stage.

"Elder Wen, is something wrong?"

Suddenly, another figure appeared beside this old man. A man in his 50s approached, with a dignified and proud expression, flying in the sky without a flying sword.

"Wen Ding." Wen Woo, the 60-year-old old man gave Wen Ding a sidelong glance before saying, "This place seems to be the legendary sect of ancient times that had been lost for a long time. But now it has surfaced, while all these guys are trying to fight for the inheritance while trying to overcome the trials left behind."

"It's the lost sect of antiquity that is said to contain many treasures and cultivation resources?"

A young voice was heard as the next moment a young man of about 16-18 years old appeared, displaying a proud and arrogant bearing. His luxurious robe evidenced the quality of the cloth, with many arrangements and even some jewels on his body. A spear rested on one of his shoulders, as if he had just emerged from a recent battle as his aura replenished, but there were no wounds on his body or clothes.

"Yes, young master." Wen Woo nodded and added, "These people below are competing to pass the tests and have a chance to get the inheritance or resources of this place. There is a powerful formation that is testing them... but what gets my attention is the formation in that ancient building..."

Wen Woo frowned more as he saw that he could not break through the defenses of the ancient building in the center. He could slightly make out the kind of hidden formation that covered those people on the ground, with the functionality of testing them, but he could not decipher the formation in the center.

"Hehm! Weak guys who can't easily take it on their own. With our power, even I alone can snatch this inheritance in front of them!" Wen Ding sneered as the next moment he released a terrifying aura as well, covering the entire place as he flew towards the center of the place.

lightsΝοvεl ?οm "Wait!" Wen Woo tried to stop Wen Ding as he saw him wanting to enter the place.

But it was too late. Wen Ding had flown straight towards the center. His cultivation essence quickly flowed out as what looked like a giant golden claw appeared in the sky, falling in the direction of the ancient building in the middle.

"This strength is clearly superior to the Golden Core stage!"

"Even though I have a Golden Core Late Stage cultivation base I feel like I won't stand a chance if this aura engulfs me!"

"A cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage? What is such a powerhouse doing in this place?"

The terrifying aura of this golden claw spread in the place, severely injuring most of the cultivators near the place. Most of them vomiting blood while a few were instantly crippled, with their meridians being destroyed. Unfortunately, less than five weak cultivators died instantly.

Many cultivators did not hesitate and quickly pulled out their life-saving treasures as they were affected by the mere aura radiating from the golden claw in the sky even though it was not directed at them. Powerful defensive artifacts and treasures were brought out without any delay, cultivation essences flowed out quickly, protecting their owners.

"A little ant dares to attack my candidates I receive for the first time in thousands of years?"

But as terror and shock at the sight of a Nascent Soul state cultivator for the first time swept through the place, the next moment an old but terrifying voice spread throughout the place from the center of the place, the ancient old building, even crossing the thousands of miles to the horizon as an aura exploded, undoing the giant golden claw.

* Boom! *

"What?" Wen Ding paled when he saw that his attack had been suppressed and the next moment he felt a pair of eyes staring directly at him and a more terrifying aura shot towards him.

Then, a halberd-like figure materialized in the sky, with a terrifying Chi coming out of the ancient building in the center and pointing towards Wen Ding. The previous old voice that had echoed through the place had also come from this ancient building!
