Chapter 758: Chapter 764: Basic Knowledge is Fundamental (Third Update)
Yang Zhen truly didn’t know what the Yaochi Holy Land wanted them to do.
Ever since he entered the Eagle Fall Cliff, he had intentionally been sensing his surrounding environment and even observing other people’s actions.
However, after observing for quite some time, Yang Zhen was somewhat baffled.
The Common Qi in the Heaven and Earth Qi was indeed a very tricky thing, but the Yaochi Holy Land had already provided a solution for this. Wasn’t it too childish to use this as a test for the Heaven’s Chosen Ones?
This was initially Yang Zhen’s thought, but he later found it was not the case. To Yang Zhen, what seemed like an obvious giveaway question had become a life-threating test for Wan Jian and others.
Wan Jian was slightly luckier. After all, Yang Zhen more or less approved of his character and helped him out of kindness. But for people like Le Ying, it was literally a deadly test.
By slightly manipulating the Common Qi, these people were trapped in a dire state. Were these people really Heaven’s Chosen Ones?
Since when did Heaven’s Chosen Ones become so foolish?
Yang Zhen found it hard to believe that the prestigious Yaochi Holy Land would need to test the Chosen Ones in this manner.
So, Yang Zhen was a bit puzzled now, what exactly did the Yaochi Holy Land want to do?
Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone beneath the Sky Observing Mirror fell silent.
What did the Yaochi Holy Land want these Chosen Ones to do? Yang Zhen was not the first one to ask this question, but throughout history, no one could answer it.
Even the present master of the Yaochi Holy Land, the Palace Master, knew only that the Chosen Ones could only enter that place by passing through the Eagle Fall Cliff. As for what the Chosen Ones should do in the Eagle Fall Cliff, there wasn’t a single answer. Over the ages, too many Chosen Ones had entered the Eagle Fall Cliff and those who successfully passed the test and entered that place had all done different things.
Some people walked in as if in a daze, some rushed in singing and slaughtering wildly, and some even stumbled in by mistake, and so on. It was a total mix!
Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s question, the faces of the Yao Saint Palace Master and Elder Jian changed, and they almost instantly turned their gazes to Wan Jian in the Sky Observing Mirror.
Elder Jian gave a bitter smile and said, “This is a bit tricky. Yang Zhen looks decisive but he’s lost at this moment. If Wan Jian gives misleading advice, wouldn’t Yang Zhen be in danger?”
The Yao Saint Palace Master spoke solemnly, “It’s not that serious. As long as Yang Zhen is still within the Array, no one can touch him. But there’s no standard for the Chosen Ones who can enter that place, even the Palace Master once said that luck plays a big part in the test of the Eagle Fall Cliff. Let’s wait and see, maybe Yang Zhen will give us a big surprise.”
The Third Saintess was looking at Yang Zhen with a startled and doubtful expression, her face flickering with complex emotions, unsure of what she was thinking.
At this moment, Wan Jian spoke up, shook his head solemnly, and said, “The Yaochi Holy Land has not explained how to win this test, but I heard a rumor that the more tokens you have, the more likely you’re to enter another place. Only when you enter that place will the real test begin.”
“Enter another place?” Yang Zhen was taken aback, and his tea-pouring action paused, causing everyone to tense up.
All eyes were on Yang Zhen, waiting for his reaction.
Even the Third Saintess, the Yao Saint Palace Master, and Elder Jian were all holding their breath, their eyes fixed on Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen gave Wan Jian a weird look, then smirked after a long while and said, “This Yaochi Holy Land really gives me a headache. They could have just mentioned there’s a secondary level in the Eagle Fall Cliff, instead of making it so complicated. Isn’t that a waste of Sao Saint’s time?”
“Secondary level?” Wan Jian was stunned. “What’s a secondary level?”
Yeah, what’s a secondary level ?
Beneath the Sky Observing Mirror, everyone was confused. They had never heard of this term before.
Only the cat’s eyes lit up with excitement, “Here it comes! This guy is going to show off again. It’s a pity there’s no background music when he shows off without its master. What a waste, gosh! If I had known earlier, I would have tried to get in.”
“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you!” Yang Zhen took a deep breath, gave Wan Jian a peculiar look, and said, “It seems that Yue Yazi and the others are in trouble. Do you want to wait here or go look for them?”
Wan Jian pondered for a while, then looked at Yang Zhen and asked, “What are you going to do?”
Everyone under the Sky Observing Mirror was dumbfounded.
What was Yang Zhen up to?
He had finally set up a Heaven and Earth Array here, which could ensure his safety. Was he planning to leave?
“This damn brat, he doesn’t value his life. At this crucial moment, is he planning to leave and find Mount Sumeru?”
Elder Jian unexpectedly stood up, his eyes wide, an expression of bewilderment on his face.
The Master of the Yao Saint Palace let out a bitter smile and said, “He is indeed an incomprehensible lad. His safety is largely owing to this Heaven and Earth Array. Once he leaves, almost everyone he encounters will be his enemy. Does he not realize the precarious situation he’s in?”
The Third Saintess wore an increasingly complicated expression as she murmured, “What on earth is he trying to do?”
What was he trying to do?
Naturally, he was looking for that duplicate!
Yang Zhen took a deep breath, looking at the surrounding mist-covered landscape he murmured, “No wonder the evaluation of Yaochi Holy Land is so simple, there’s actually a hidden mission!”
Hearing Yang Zhen’s murmur, everyone was dumbfounded.
Wan Jian responded with a bitter smile, “You’re truly a rare talent. Without you, I probably wouldn’t have known until now that the mood altering aura in Eagle Fall Cliff can be suppressed by the Nameless Heart Method. That sort of test concerning perception and understanding is usually difficult, but in your words, it’s become so simple?”
Yang Zhen paused, then shook his head, “That’s the flaw of you high and mighty ones!”
Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone was taken aback. Although they didn’t understand what Yang Zhen meant by “high and mighty”, they mostly understood that Yang Zhen was suggesting that there were flaws in Wan Jian, a disciple of ancient heritage?
Everyone exchanged glances. Disciples of the ancient inheritance had extensive knowledge and the cultivation methods and martial skills they practiced were the most mystical and profound in the world. Their understanding of the Way of Heaven and Earth was beyond reach for ordinary people like Yang Zhen.
Did Yang Zhen just say that there were flaws in disciples of the ancient inheritance?
Wan Jian looked at Yang Zhen with uncertainty and asked, “Do we… have any flaws?”
Yang Zhen glanced at Wan Jian and said, “Your ambitions are too lofty, your basic foundation is unstable, and your ability to extrapolate is poor!”
The crowd: “…”
Wan Jian: “…”
In Yang Zhen’s eyes, were disciples of the ancient lineage really that worthless?
“This bastard, does he really understand what the ancient inheritance is?”
“Throughout the ages, hasn’t everyone envied and been jealous of disciples of the ancient inheritance? Yang Zhen is looking down on them, he’s really asking for trouble!”
“This vile man, he dares to look down on us, disciples of the ancient heritage?”
“Master, do we really have such flaws?”
“Don’t listen to that scoundrel Yang Zhen. All over the world, countless practitioners desire to enter ancient heritage sects and sanctuaries. The cultivation methods and martial skills of the ancient heritage are the most powerful, improved upon by countless great forces over thousands of years and epochs. How could a rogue practitioner understand that?”
“What the elder said is right, but…”
As the crowd was hurling insults, Yang Zhen looked at Wan Jian and suddenly said, “You don’t believe me?”@@novelbin@@
Wan Jian replied with a bitter smile, “To be honest, I find it hard to believe.”
Yang Zhen burst into laughter and exclaimed, “Then let this Sao Saint prove you wrong and show you what constitutes basic knowledge!”
What do you think?
