In the hall on the far left, here it is clearly the place of seclusion for the True Monarch of Five Elements.

A statue, a zafu, and an Eight Immortals table, giving a sense of simplicity.

Quite contrasting with the grandeur and luxury of the outer hall.

He approached the zafu, bowing deeply, and like before, he took out some sandalwood.

Of course, at this moment, he was extremely vigilant; he still remembered how in the Desolate Spirit Medicine Garden, there was a residual soul in the Treasure Diagram waiting to possess someone.

Now there were only three diagrams, allowing only three people through. In Ye Jingcheng's view, it was highly possible they were also intended for possession.

Being cautious in everything is never wrong.

He had the Celestial Soul Technique, and at this moment, the Six Soul-Annihilating Needles had fully condensed. Plus, the Soul Guardian Secret Treasure given by his family meant he wasn't particularly frightened.

The most crucial point was he was always ready to release the Four-Colored Cloud Deer.

The possession he imagined did not occur, and he slowly burned the sandalwood inside the Pill Furnace.

Nor did the imagined inheritance of smoke and fire appear.

"It seems I was overthinking it!" Ye Jingcheng sighed inwardly as he stood up.

Prepared to take the three Jade Talismans.

He suddenly felt the statue move slightly.

He immediately stepped back several feet.

"Who?" Ye Jingcheng asked.

"Who are those people outside?" At this moment, the statue finally spoke.

Its voice was hoarse and awkward, as if it hadn't spoken in hundreds of years.

The tone carried a dull slowness, as if it had been asleep for too long.

"Outside are my friends," Ye Jingcheng replied.

"Are you the senior True Monarch of Five Elements?" After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively asked.

"You could say so," the True Monarch of Five Elements thought for a moment.

"But not exactly."

Ye Jingcheng was somewhat bewildered by this response.

However, upon sensing, the Divine Sense before him was not very strong, in his perception, perhaps only a little stronger than the third tier.

It would still be a bit difficult to possess him.

Moreover, he noticed that the other party appeared particularly weak.

"To be precise, this old man is merely a Soul Split Projection!" the statue sighed.

"You triggered it, and now, I am about to dissipate."

"But before dissipating, it's nice to see that I have disciples!" The statue's words flowed more smoothly, filled with thought and memory.

"Are you sure everyone outside is your friend?" But the next moment, the statue frowned again.

"You are not a loose cultivator... Ah, forget it, whether you're a loose cultivator or not is not up to an already deceased Soul Split Projection like me!"

"The senior only passes on to loose cultivators?" Ye Jingcheng was very puzzled.

He actually guessed what was happening outside; the Ye family members couldn't possibly go out now, so it was that Master Qing Hu who had come in.

And as long as Master Qing Hu had come in, he wouldn't be able to leave; the Ye family wouldn't allow him to send messages.

The Cyan Spirit Trading Association wasn't something the Ye family could provoke at the moment.

Fortunately, with the Earth Dragon Demon King present, Ye Jingcheng was not too worried.

"It's considered a legacy for loose cultivators, but since you can pass the first four trials, then naturally I have no reason to stop you."

"Four trials?" Ye Jingcheng was puzzled.

The True Monarch of Five Elements' projection indeed seemed to have not chatted for a long time, and at this moment, there was no holding back. Instead, he became enthusiastic and narrated.

"These four trials I set are naturally to ensure loose cultivators can inherit my legacy."

"The first trial is about fate; I don't want my heir to be completely without fate, so they must collect three Spirit Diagrams!"

"The second is respect; those without reverence for their predecessors are not suitable heirs."

"When I acquired the Five Spirits Inheritance, I performed the three bows and nine prostrations, and conducted the Void Master's Salute with Spirit Tea and Sandalwood Smoke to inherit these cultivation techniques and divine skills. If they are not respectful at the arena, they are not considered by me!"

"The third is talent; those who can't wield Five Elements Magic, or are not Five Elements Spirit Root, are not considered by me!"

"The fourth trial is the Three Gates for Loose Cultivators. Only those who enter this gate can receive my legacy. Entering the other two gates will not only yield no treasures, but also result in immediate teleportation out!"

"Doesn't the senior worry about any mistakes?" Ye Jingcheng cautiously asked.

"Mistakes?"

"What does a mistake have to do with me? I am an already deceased Soul Split Projection, why care about so much!" the True Monarch of Five Elements' projection snorted coldly again.

"However, if you tarnish the reputation of my cultivation techniques, even if I am dead, should there be a day for reincarnation, I will not spare you!"

"Naturally!" Ye Jingcheng said repeatedly, the words of the True Monarch of Five Elements also completely set his mind at ease. According to this, the possibility of the True Monarch of Five Elements making a move against him was not great.

Of course, he was focused on the True Monarch of Five Elements at this moment and noticed the latter's Divine Soul Fluctuation was indeed slowly weakening.

As if realizing something, the person coldly snorted:

"What are you standing there dazing for? Are you expecting to get my legacy for free?"

"Master in the heavens, please accept a bow from your disciple, Ye Jingcheng!" At this, Ye Jingcheng immediately understood and directly knelt on the zafu.

He then retrieved a lot of Spirit Fragrance from the Storage Bag, as well as the finest Tier Two Yunfu Tea.

He began to offer tea and incense.

Performed the three bows and nine prostrations.

Of course, he had the Three Elements Blood Escape Technique ready at any moment, prepared to retreat if anything went wrong.

"Not bad, showing complete etiquette, I finally have a successor, ensuring the Five Spirits Sect's legacy won't be severed!" the True Monarch of Five Elements exclaimed with emotion, but the next moment, his words suddenly became much more serious.

"However, becoming my successor is not an easy task!"

"Learn my three thousand techniques, and restore my supreme name!"

"This is the requirement for you, and also my expectation for you!"
