Chapter 190 The Three Temples Stand Together, The Immortal's Legacy

With the addition of the Wang family examinee named "Wang Qilin," the situation on the scene changed once again.

Xie Baiyu's composure vanished completely, replaced by a fierce look in his eyes, and he immediately focused all his energy.

Even though he considered himself the best among nearly ten thousand candidates and never took the other few Heavenly Temple candidates seriously, his chances of winning were still not high when two Heavenly Temple candidates joined forces.

During the battle, Xie Baiyu inadvertently glanced at the two beauties from the Snake Clan beside him.

If things don't go well in the battle, he'll have to trouble these two fellow Daoists to help delay and be on guard.

With this thought in mind, Xie Baiyu unceremoniously shouted at the two women:

"What are you two standing by for, fellow Daoists? Could it be that you're just using me as a tool for your revenge?!"

The shout reached the ears of the two women from the Snake Family, causing their expressions to change immediately.

They quickly replied, "No, no, we wouldn't dare."

"Brother Xie, please don't misunderstand, we're here to help you right away."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two women unleashed their true magical power. They released the three serpentine household gods within them, and with a clench of their teeth, they swayed and twisted as if they had transformed into snakes, dodging Yu Que and Wang Qilin's spells and rushing towards them to support Xie Baiyu.

The other one took out powder from his sleeve and quickly sprinkled it around, filling the air with fragrance.

He also transmitted his voice to Xie Baiyu: "This is a muscle-relaxing and bone-numbing powder, a secret medicine of my snake family. Brother Baiyu, you must hold your breath and not swallow it. It is best not to even touch it, otherwise the poison will seep into your skin through the pores."

Upon hearing this, Xie Baiyu did not react with anger. His eyes changed slightly, and he immediately took out a handkerchief, covered his mouth and nose, and retreated repeatedly.

On the other side, Yu Que and Wang Qilin saw the two women from the Snake family make their move, and their eyes flashed with disdain.

Yu Que didn't even glance at the snake family woman who was flashing and lunging at him. With just a slight thought, the aura of his ancestral temple flowed around him.

With a whoosh, when a woman from the Snake Clan entered the area of ​​his Heavenly Temple, the man was immediately shaken, and fear surged forth. Even the household deity on his body was teetering on the verge of collapse, half-detaching from his physical body.

Snake Green screamed in disbelief: "Is this... the power of the Heavenly Temple?"

"Haha, Brother Yu, you're so impressive."

Wang Qilin laughed loudly as he drove his three-horse chariot toward the poisonous mist spread by another woman from the Snake Clan, completely disregarding whether he would be poisoned or not.

With a whoosh, a strong wind blew up, directly sweeping the smoke and mist within a radius of a hundred feet toward Xie Baiyu.

Xie Baiyu had barely caught his breath when he saw that the two women from the Snake family were having no effect whatsoever, and he uttered another soft shout:
"Useless! Why don't you show some real skills and support me?"

However, when She Zi saw the golden carriage rushing towards her, she wavered and cried out in alarm. In the end, she chose to step aside and did not dare to block the way.

The other snake, after being nearly shaken out of her mortal realm by Yu Que, bit her tongue, groaned a few times, and fled the scene at top speed. Without looking back, she ran towards the edge of the battlefield.

When the two women from the Snake Clan were outmatched in a single exchange, they both chose to flee in different directions, having no intention of confronting Yu Que and his companion head-on.

This situation caught Xie Baiyu's eye, causing the boy's face to contort slightly, his eyes blazing with fury.

This was the first time in all his years that he had been so thoroughly mocked. Especially since the other party was just two people he considered his potential partners.

"Hmph!" Xie Baiyu thought coldly to himself, "Once this matter is over, I will definitely use my energy to replenish your lives in this secret realm and refine each of you into my life force."

But then, two bursts of laughter forced Xie Baiyu to come back to his senses:

"Fellow Daoist, you've met the wrong person."

"It seems that Brother Xie will be eliminated first this time. After eliminating you, we will go and eliminate your cousin as well."

Yu Que and Wang Qilin attacked Xie Baiyu from both sides.

One of them was surrounded by surging sword energy, charging forward fearlessly; the other was driving a ghost chariot, unstoppable in its momentum.

Xie Baiyu dared not hide anything any longer. He opened his mouth and let out a roar like thunder. He saw a blue-green ancestral temple fly out from above his head, quickly grow larger, and protect him.

With a whoosh, both Yu Que and Wang Qilin were blocked on the outside by the other's ancestral temple.

Xie Baiyu coldly watched the two of them, stretched out both hands, and made a half-hearted grasping motion towards each of them.

Two cyan-purple auras, which had been lingering in the ancestral temple, suddenly burst forth like thick, powerful dragons, swirling around Yu Que and his companion, eroding their protective spiritual light and attempting to grind them to death on the spot.

Xie Baiyu spoke:

"This is the Yin-Yang Temple of my Xie family. It is your good fortune to be able to see it today."

His eyes flashed with coldness: "Once my Heavenly Temple appears, it will inevitably lead to life or death. Who among you wants to die, and who wants to live a wretched life?"

Yu Que and Wang Qilin stared at each other's Heavenly Temple and indeed felt the meaning of Yin and Yang transformation within it. It was unfathomable, seemingly fraught with danger at times and as gentle as a spring breeze at others.

But they were not afraid; instead, they laughed and cheered in unison.
"It's as if everyone has a temple."

The moment Yu Que's thoughts settled, the myriad unrestrained forces surrounding him completely manifested.

An ancient and elegant temple emerged, exuding a profound aura that rivaled even Xie Baiyu's Heavenly Temple.

Wang Qilin suddenly roared, his voice like a fierce tiger, and a mountain temple filled with the aura of metal and stone suddenly rose up.

He drank:
"Wang's temple is a temple of unparalleled strength, capable of uprooting mountains and covering the world. Just wait and see if I can't run you over!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Heavenly Temple descended upon him, making him as solid as a mountain. He ignored the rising purple aura around him and charged towards Xie Baiyu even more violently.

The three ancestral temples, each with a different color and glow, shone brightly within the secret realm, forming a triangular formation.

Although Yu and Wang were working together, they had now even brought up the Heavenly Temple, indicating that the conflict was truly intense. They were both on guard against each other, fearing that they might be secretly harmed by the other.

Xie Baiyu, on the other hand, single-handedly supported the two of them. He controlled the purple and green energies and was not at a disadvantage at all.

Rumble!
The aura of the Heavenly Temple manifesting soared into the sky, stirring up the spiritual energy in the secret realm like a raging storm.

Even those candidates who were hundreds of miles away and could not see the battlefield felt a sudden pang of fear, as if a great calamity was about to befall them.

Besides Yu Que and the other two, there was indeed another Heavenly Temple in the secret realm, and the person there was Xie Qingjie.

Xie Qingjie walked alone in the Nine Dragon Waterfall Immortal Garden. Wherever she walked, lotus flowers bloomed and spring breezes blew. Some small evil places did not even need her to do anything. Just a wisp of spring breeze wrapped around her would eradicate the evil energy.

Therefore, even after two days, the aura emanating from this woman was no less than that of Yu Que and the others, and even slightly surpassed them.

As her mind trembled, she sensed the change in the spiritual energy of the secret realm and immediately understood:
"Have those people already started fighting?"

The woman's brows were furrowed, but they quickly relaxed.

Not only did she have no intention of getting involved, she immediately changed direction and ran away from Yu Que and the other two. Xie Qingjie hadn't given up on competing for the true inheritance; rather, she didn't want to use her magic to contend with them.

So far, she hasn't even eliminated a single candidate; the aura above her head is entirely from repairing the secret realm.

This woman's plan was to earn pure merit by subduing demonic energy and slaying ferocious beasts.

Xie Qingjie thought to herself, "You should have a good fight, preferably for a day or two. By then, there will be no more merit to be gained in the Immortal Garden, and you will have to kill each other."

………………

Buzz!
The three heavenly temples are crowded together in the secret realm, their momentum is strong.

Because all three were at the lower level of the eighth rank, the same level, and each had their own methods, and they also cooperated with each other, they fought from the very beginning all the way to a hundred miles away, and still could not let go.

Furthermore, as members of the Heavenly Temple, all three of them were extremely thirsty for spiritual energy.

Therefore, the route they took was in the direction where the spiritual energy was most abundant.

Whether it was due to the influence of the Heavenly Temple or not, the concentration of spiritual energy in the Nine Dragon Waterfall Immortal Garden had increased significantly, which made the three of them not only feel no fatigue, but also become more and more courageous in the fight.

After most of the day had passed, the three of them were no longer aware of where they had ended up fighting.

They looked around and found themselves surrounded by a desert, with yellow sand beneath their feet and dust rising everywhere, obscuring the view beyond.

What surprised the three even more was:

"The spiritual energy here is incredibly rich!"

For some unknown reason, the surging spiritual energy around them swirled into a vortex and poured into their temple.

Even Wang Qilin, who seemed the most reckless, noticed something amiss.

Whoosh!

Xie Baiyu's eyes flashed, and he shouted loudly, abruptly withdrawing the purple and green energies under his command, forcibly withdrawing from the three-person battle in the Heavenly Temple.

The man's face was turning bluish-purple, clearly because he had forcibly broken free and suffered all the injuries alone, leaving his internal energy unstable.

He exhaled a long breath, the air thick with the stench of blood, but his eyes remained fixed intently on Yu Que and Wang Qilin, and he said in a low voice, "Gentlemen, this is the Immortal Garden. Your opportunity has arrived. Why fight any longer?"

The moment this person stopped, Yu Que and Wang Qilin hesitated for a moment, suppressing their impulses and not rushing forward to attack, but instead restraining their magical power.

The three of them stood in a circle.

Wang Qilin looked around excitedly and said:
“Not bad, not bad. This place was left by immortals ten thousand years ago, and there are countless opportunities here. Now that the three of us from the Heavenly Temples are fighting here, we might just move something and bring out the hidden opportunities.”

Xie Baiyu nodded:
“Indeed. As members of the Heavenly Temple, we are the future of the Dao Palace. All the opportunities and benefits within the palace belong to us, so it is not surprising that we have obtained one in this secret realm today.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Qilin nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world, appearing completely calm and confident.

Yu Que was the only one present. While he looked on in surprise, he was also filled with vigilance.

Listening to the two of them, Yu Que felt even more strange: "The opportunities in the palace should have been shared by us... Is this the mentality of the aristocratic Tianmiao?"

Knowing that he was not from a prominent family and knew very little about the secrets of the Dao Palace, Yu Que remained silent and calmly looked around to avoid revealing his ignorance.

After exchanging a few words, Xie and Wang each turned to look at Yu Que and sent out a divine sense:
"Brother Yu, let's discuss the struggle for the true inheritance first, and then we'll talk about seizing the opportunity."

"I hope Brother Yu will continue to join forces with me."

They were both secretly trying to win over Yu Que, perhaps because they both thought Yu Que was the most easily swayed of the three and the easiest to win over.

Yu Que remained noncommittal. He nodded and followed behind the two, heading towards a sand dune deep in the desert.

The opening was shaped like a blooming chrysanthemum, about ten zhang in size, and kept getting bigger, as if a giant beast was lurking underneath.

The increasingly dense spiritual energy around it was emanating from its body.

Yu Que and his two companions were all highly skilled and daring, and they did not believe that such a large, still alive beast could exist in such a secret realm.

Furthermore, they were even more confident that even if there were dangers in the Nine Dragon Waterfall Secret Realm, the Dao Palace would not allow all three of their Heavenly Temples to perish there.

Swish!
The three of them disappeared into the yellow sand, their vision obscured, their senses distorted, and their consciousness blocked.

After a full quarter of an hour of traversing the sand, the group slowed down and finally found solid ground beneath their feet.

"here it is……"

The three steadied themselves, looked around, and found that they were each standing on a stone pillar about three feet thick.

After the three of them landed, the yellow sand above them stopped flowing and slowly closed in.

Beneath this sea of ​​sand lies a rocky foundation, with the rocks cut and polished into massive bricks, stacked around the perimeter to form a vast space that resembles both a palace and a tomb, crude and ancient.

After taking a look around, the eyes of Yu Que and the other two fell on the stone coffin standing upright in the center.

The stone coffin is of a magical shape; no matter which direction you look from, you can see its front. It is surrounded by stone pillars, like a king being guarded.

The surface of the stone coffin is also engraved with characters, each one twisted like a tadpole or a worm, and just one glance at them seems to burrow into the skulls of the three people.

With a cry of "Ah!", Wang Qilin was the first to succumb. He lowered his head, averted his gaze, and cursed under his breath.

"This damn inscription is really dizzying to read."

Perhaps because of the ancestral temple, Yu Que's spirit remained calm. He stared for a full ten breaths before finally being unable to bear it any longer, slowly closing his eyes to process what he had seen.

On the contrary, Xie Baiyu stared blankly at the upright coffin, then suddenly burst into laughter:

"Haha, Wang Qilin, you blockhead! This is an ancient secret text, containing immortal power!"

Xie Baiyu's eyes were filled with madness as he murmured:

"This place truly has a heritage, still retaining the legacy of immortals."

Upon hearing the words "secret text," both Wang Qilin and Yu Que were shocked.

They suddenly opened their eyes and stared once more at the inscription on the coffin.

Even though they felt dizzy and their eyes stung from looking at it, the two of them still tried to look at it a few more times.

After examining them closely, both of them showed surprise and exclaimed softly:
"It truly is a secret text from the immortals."

The opportunity here is actually related to an ancient immortal, and it seems to be a legacy of an immortal!
