"Senior, are you going to let us out?"
Jiang Yun and Qin Hao were stunned, somewhat unable to believe it.
"Cowards, what use are you? Get out!" A majestic voice shouted angrily.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
"Bang bang!"
Two terrifying blue lightning bolts shot out, directly blasting Qin Hao and Jiang Yun away, even penetrating the barrier to fly outside the palace.
Feeling this dreadful power, Gu Chenfeng thought to himself, "As expected, it's the Half-Immortal Realm."
"So fast!" Nalan Ziye's pretty face changed dramatically.
"Junior Brother!" Yang Ke'Er was utterly shocked, her heart filled with panic.
Jiang Yun and Qin Hao had already been blasted out of the palace.
"Don't worry, they are not yet qualified to die by my hands." The ethereal voice sounded once more.
Hearing this, Yang Ke'Er finally felt relieved.
The voice fell silent.
A young man in white, with a phantom-like figure, appeared out of thin air on the square.
The man in white was a youth with white hair, handsome in appearance, and exuding an aura reminiscent of an immortal.
The appearance of the man in white left Yang Ke'Er and Nalan Ziye both dazed.
The man in white floated barefoot and asked Gu Chenfeng and the others, "Do you wish to accept the test?"
Gu Chenfeng scrutinized the man in white and said calmly, "Of course, I do. I'm not as foolish as those two. Such a good opportunity shouldn't be missed, and with a bit of luck, we might receive your inheritance."
"Brother Feng, have you gone mad?" Nalan Ziye whispered, "How could there be such a good thing in this world? He's just a primordial spirit now; he probably wants to devour us."
"Gu Chenfeng, don't be impulsive," Yang Ke'Er also whispered, "Let's think of another way first."
Gu Chenfeng spread his hands and smiled, "No need to worry, he's just a remnant power of a primordial spirit. Even if he wants to possess someone, he couldn't do it."
"Remnant power of a primordial spirit?" Yang Ke'Er and Nalan Ziye were filled with disbelief.
Can the remnant power of a primordial spirit be this terrifying?
"Indeed." Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly, "What can a remnant power of a primordial spirit do? If he kills us, his power will dissipate too, bringing him no benefit whatsoever."
"Therefore, rather than killing us, he might as well leave the inheritance. Once this remnant primordial spirit power vanishes, all his skills will disappear as well."
The man in white looked at Gu Chenfeng in surprise and smiled faintly, "You have quite the insight, being able to see that I am just a remnant power of a primordial spirit."
"However, don't think you can use this to threaten me. If you can't pass my test, you won't gain my inheritance either."
Gu Chenfeng smiled lightly, "I don't need to take the test, besides, I think you already have your answer."
"Oh? Let's hear it," the man in white asked in surprise.
"Do I even need to say it?" Gu Chenfeng shrugged and smiled, "You're of the Water Attribute, Senior Sister Yang is of the Wood Attribute, and I'm of the Ice Attribute. Here, only Sister Nalan has the Water Attribute."
"To put it bluntly, even if Sister Nalan doesn't pass your test, you would give the inheritance to her. Otherwise, you wouldn't have shown up, unless you're truly willing to disappear with all your skills from this world."
"Me?" Nalan Ziye widened her eyes.
"Kid, you're something else," the man in white marveled and smiled faintly, "However, besides the Water Attribute, I possess the attributes of Metal, Wood, Fire, and Earth, because I have the Innate Five Elements Body."
"Oh? Innate Five Elements Body?" Gu Chenfeng was extremely surprised.
Having been reborn nine times, Gu Chenfeng had heard of the Five Elements Body, but it was his first time encountering a cultivator with such a body.
"Innate Five Elements Body!" Yang Ke'Er couldn't help but exclaim, "This is the legendary physique, yet I never thought the Five Elements Body actually exists. Ancient records state that any cultivator with such a body is a genius among geniuses, with at least a Perfect Grade Spirit Root."
"Innate Five Elements Body?" Nalan Ziye asked in confusion and shock, "Can a person possess five attributes at the same time? Isn't dual attributes already one-in-ten-thousand?"
"The legends are true indeed, the little girl knows quite a bit," the man in white smiled faintly, "My Five Elements Body allows me to switch attributes at will."
"In other words, if you both pass my test, you can both receive my inheritance. Are you willing?"
Yang Ke'Er and Nalan Ziye exchanged glances and both nodded, "We are willing."
"Very well!" The man in white said joyfully, "Then the test shall begin now."
With a wave of the man in white's hand, the space changed instantly.
In the blink of an eye, Yang Ke'Er and Nalan Ziye were transferred to two identical spaces.
In these spaces, besides themselves, there was a pair of lovers and a severely injured and dying man.
Seeing the scene before them, both Yang Ke'Er and Nalan Ziye were stunned.
The voice of the man in white echoed, "They are merely illusions. I need you to make your own choices to complete the test."
"Betrayal by a loved one, if you were the injured person and happened to gain supreme power at this moment, what would you do? You have only the time of an incense stick to consider, then make your choice."
Yang Ke'Er slightly furrowed her eyebrows and thought to herself, "To pass the test, I must choose correctly, which means the result he wants to see. No matter what choice I make, I won't pass the test if it isn't the result he desires."
In the other identical space.
Nalan Ziye looked at the woman with a proud smile and frowned thinking, "Even though she is detestable, surely he can't bear to kill his beloved."
"Her heart has changed, even if I kill the person beside her, she would not return to him."
On the square.
The man in white and Gu Chenfeng watched Yang Ke'Er and Nalan Ziye through a beam of light.
Gu Chenfeng suddenly asked, "I guess you chose to leave."
The man in white asked in surprise, "Oh? How do you know?"
"Didn't I tell you? I guessed," Gu Chenfeng grinned, "You aren't regretful of your choice but rather unwilling to accept it. A genius with the Five Elements Body, how could you be willing to let your beloved be taken away?"
"You are correct," the man in white smiled faintly, "Indeed, I am unwilling, always asking myself where exactly I fell short to him."
"You didn't lose to him," Gu Chenfeng shook his head, "She simply didn't love you. She was well aware you couldn't give her what she wanted."
"Couldn't give her what she wanted?" The man in white frowned and asked, "What does that mean? How would a little kid like you know?"
Gu Chenfeng replied with a smile, "Because she didn't want to be under your shadow. She only wanted to take your place and become the most dazzling one."
"But she knew, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't surpass you. Since she couldn't surpass you, she could only destroy you. Once you're gone, she would be the most dazzling one."
