Chapter 406: Chapter 212: Inheriting the Immortal Artifact, Stars as Chess

Inside the great hall.

Profound Turtle Senior looked at Ning Qi with eyes full of hope.

He had awakened a portion of the inheritance memory and knew how glorious the True Martial Realm once was. But precisely because of this, he felt even more distressed. If he hadn’t known, it would have been fine, but after knowing about the vastness of the world, he could only be trapped in the Martial Realm awaiting his demise, a feeling difficult to describe.

Again and again, he watched hopefully as people from the Martial Realm entered the test, but without exception, they all failed.

He had already despaired.

This time, opening the True Martial Hall was just a symbolic act. Yet he didn’t expect to meet someone like Ning Qi, a surprising source of joy.

Ning Qi nodded solemnly.

He already understood the cause and effect, knowing that the enemy he faced was as colossal as the Mountain and Sea Realm. Even though he had confidence in himself, he hoped to seek any possible help. If he could obtain the True Martial Immortal Sect’s inheritance before him, his hope of breaking the situation would naturally increase greatly.

He asked: ”Profound Turtle Senior, what is the specific content of this inheritance test?”

Old Profound Turtle slowly shook his head: ”I don’t know the specific content either.”

Ning Qi was stunned.

Wasn’t there many testers from the Martial Realm who entered it?

Old Profound Turtle explained: ”Anyone who enters the test and fails will have all related memories erased.”

Ning Qi’s heart shook.

Then he heard the old Profound Turtle continue: ”The specific content is unknown, but the inheritance test is nothing more than a few items: comprehension, combat power, and willpower. These are the evaluation criteria for many Spirit Realm Immortal Sects when selecting inheritors, and the True Martial Immortal Sect is no exception.”

Ning Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

If it’s truly like this, his confidence greatly increased. ”Ning, you must give it your all and strive to get the best evaluation in the test. This determines how much control you will have over the True Martial Hall in the end! The True Martial Hall is the inheritanced Immortal Artifact of the True Martial Sect!” This was the hope of the old Profound Turtle.

As the words fell.

Ning Qi’s pupils constricted sharply.

Immortal Artifact!

Anything connected to immortals is definitely not simple.

He never imagined that the True Martial Hall was actually an Immortal Artifact. Even though the old Profound Turtle had said before that the True Martial Hall is now broken, even a broken Immortal Artifact greatly exceeded Ning Qi’s imagination and undoubtedly possessed extraordinary power.

At the same time.

He also grasped another piece of information in the old Profound Turtle’s words.

The test evaluation is related to authority. ”So, if I can’t fully control the True Martial Hall, there will continue to be selection of inheritors in the future?” Ning Qi asked.

Old Profound Turtle nodded: ”Naturally. The True Martial Immortal Sect wants the most excellent inheritor. For instance, if you only obtain a grade B evaluation, you might only gain two or three parts of authority, and afterwards you will also shoulder the burden of selecting inheritors for the True Martial Immortal Sect until someone is fully recognized by the True Martial Hall.”

Ning Qi immediately understood.

This is the spark of the True Martial Immortal Sect.

The old Profound Turtle before him, as the inheritor of the spark, must also have very limited control over the True Martial Hall. Some Secret Techniques regarding Life Poison and world will from the ancient era of the Martial Realm probably leaked from here, otherwise relying solely on the old Profound Turtle who is considered ’native’ to the Martial Realm might not be able to produce such Secret Techniques.

Ning Qi was rarely moved.

A Spirit Realm’s overlord-level Immortal Sect inheritance along with an Immortal Artifact, even within the Spirit Realm, is enough to make countless cultivators envious and fervent. Even those powerful beings in the Integration Realm or Unity Realm would take action.

Fortunately, this is currently in the Martial Realm.

The Mountain and Sea Realm does not know that the inheritance of the True Martial Immortal Sect is hidden within.

Taking a deep breath, Ning Qi adjusted his mood.

Under the encouraging gaze of the old Profound Turtle, he took a step forward, already walking into the Light Door. ”You must succeed.”

Old Profound Turtle silently prayed, watching the golden portal intently, not daring to relax for a moment. ...

Ning Qi felt a powerful force surging around him, seemingly detecting something, and then the surroundings fell into darkness.

When he opened his eyes again.

He heard deafening sounds of battle cries, terrifying auras making Ning Qi’s soul tremble. He had no doubt that the owners of those auras could reincarnate him several hundred times with just a casual breath.

Ning Qi looked.

A series of Immortal Mountains thousands of times more majestic than True Martial Mountain stretched endlessly. Within them, celestial mist shrouded, spirit waterfalls hung like star rivers, spirit herbs and exotic flowers were everywhere to be seen, and countless spirit beasts and immortal animals soared among them. He could even vaguely see the figures of True Dragons and Celestial Phoenixes.

His breath tightened.

Yet, such a sacred land of immortals was now witnessing an incredibly fierce unprecedented battle. ”True Martial Ancestor, surrender without delay!” Two incomparably terrifying figures descended, and everything around distorted. Ning Qi couldn’t even look at their figures directly.

Among the myriad Immortal Mountains.

A similarly frightful figure stepped forth.

Ning Qi also couldn’t clearly see his figure, vaguely feeling it was an imposing old man. The old man said nothing, and in an instant, moved the heavens and earth, sweeping those two away, opening another secret realm to fight them alone, overwhelming in momentum.

With these three gone.

The remaining strong ones were equally terrifying.

Ning Qi saw a powerful being grabbing stars with a single hand and furiously smashing them within the Immortal Mountains, causing the heaven and earth to shake; cultivators manifested Supreme Divine Techniques, transforming into heaven-reaching three-headed six-armed giants, tearing apart True Dragons alive; there were also Absolute Strong Persons setting up shocking formations, summoning countless heavenly fires, burning Immortal Mountains to ashes...

His mind shuddered.

Everything before him was overwhelmingly terrifying.

This was an incredibly fierce cultivator battle, Spirit Realm warfare!

One after another, powerful beings made their moves, their methods heaven-reaching, far beyond what Ning Qi could aspire to now, and the sheer number of cultivators was mind-numbing, even the most inconspicuous little minion was stronger than Ning Qi.
