Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

Just when everyone began to have some doubts, the man in gold suddenly raised his hands and pressed a seemingly ordinary but mysterious area of ​​the rock wall and rotated it with a little force. Then the entire ground slowly sank, revealing a long ladder leading deep underground!

"Great! This should be the legendary trial site!" Seeing this scene, everyone cheered excitedly and quickened their pace to follow the guide down to the world below to find out what was going on...

As the light gradually weakened until it disappeared without a trace, everyone had to light the torches they had prepared and continue on their way. The road ahead became increasingly darker and more crisscrossed, making it difficult to discern the direction. Fortunately, with strong intuition and keen observation, they soon arrived at a large and empty hall with a huge stone tablet in the middle. They stopped and carefully read the text on its surface:

"If you want to obtain this item, you must first pass my three tests. Only those with a strong mind and unparalleled bravery can succeed to the throne, otherwise you will be lost forever and cannot turn back."

After reading this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but take a deep breath and felt a little apprehensive. "So only the strongest talents have a chance to obtain that power?"

"Maybe." The man in gold patted his young friend on the shoulder and consoled him, "But I believe you can definitely do it."

Just as they were still hesitating, a loud roar was heard - it turned out that the stone door opened by itself to welcome the test of the upcoming challenger!

"Okay! Since it has come to this, there is no reason to give up!" Lin Feng was the first to stand up and said firmly.

The other three also agreed and stood side by side to welcome the upcoming fateful duel...

"Then go in." Zhao Yunlong gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, his eyes determined. "No matter what happens, we will not back down!"

The four of them stepped into the door, and the door behind them closed heavily. They knew that the real test was about to begin, but their mutual trust and courage would become their strongest shield.

The moment the four of them stepped through the door, an invisible pressure like a mountain pressed down on them. The surroundings quickly darkened, and the originally spacious space seemed to shrink in an instant, making people feel extremely depressed.

"What is this place?" Lin Feng asked in a low voice. His voice echoed in the empty lobby, sounding particularly loud.

The man in gold looked around and frowned slightly: "This seems to be some kind of barrier that can simulate a real battle scene."

Before he finished speaking, a deafening roar suddenly rang out in the air. The ground shook violently, and the entire space seemed to be shaking. The ground beneath their feet cracked open, and a huge creature with a black body and a strong smell of death slowly crawled out of it. Its red eyes stared at them closely, revealing a strong murderous intent.

Zhao Yunlong drew his sword and pointed it at the monster: "Demon from outside the domain!"

The mysterious woman immediately released a blue light, forming a barrier to protect everyone. However, the light only slightly blocked the steps of the demon, and did not repel it.

"Its defense is amazing. Ordinary means alone may not be effective." She said in a deep voice.

The man in gold nodded in agreement: "That's right. We must find its weakness in order to win."

At this moment, Xiao Ran suddenly remembered something. "The senior once mentioned that the test in the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance requires us to be strong-willed and brave. Perhaps this is also part of the test."

"Then let's try our real kung fu!" Lin Feng shouted and rushed forward, swinging the long stick in his hand and smashing it hard at the demon. The sound of metal collision rang out, sparks flew everywhere, but the demon was only slightly knocked back, and no substantial damage was caused.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran also joined the battle, using his speed advantage to constantly move around the opponent, trying to find a breakthrough point. At the same time, Zhao Yunlong held a long sword and continuously launched a variety of gorgeous moves to launch a fierce attack; while the mysterious woman fully supported everyone on the side, occasionally firing a few beams of strong light to try to interfere with the opponent's vision or directly attack his vital parts.

The battle lasted for a long time. Although everyone tried their best, they still could not inflict a fatal blow to it. "This won't work..." Xiao Ran said panting, "We have to change our method."

At this moment, the man in gold suddenly had a new idea: "Do you remember what was written on the stone tablet before you entered? Only those with a strong will can pass the test. Maybe this is the key to solving the problem."

After hearing this, the three of them brightened up, stopped what they were doing, closed their eyes and began to meditate. Sure enough, the surrounding environment changed soon after - the originally aggressive demons gradually became blurred, and then the whole scene changed, turning into a forest full of tranquility and peace.

After opening their eyes and seeing the familiar and beautiful scenery, everyone was delighted: "It seems we have found the right way!"

Just as they were about to go deeper, they suddenly heard a series of wailing sounds. Looking back, they saw countless demons of different shapes but equally ferocious and terrifying reappearing, and their number was even greater than before...

"What... is going on?" Xiao Ran asked in surprise.

"It seems that the test is not over, but has become more difficult." The man in gold said calmly, "But we already know how to deal with them. I believe there won't be any big problems next time."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and gently pressed it on his chest, emitting a gentle warmth. At the same time, the other three followed suit. Instantly, a dazzling light burst out from everyone's body, illuminating the entire dark world like the morning light...

"Don't give up no matter what... As long as you hold on, you will see the light!" Lin Feng encouraged loudly.

"Yes, let's work hard together!" Xiao Ran said firmly, his eyes meeting with his companions, and their mutual belief became stronger.

The four of them were bathed in the soft light, their hearts filled with firm belief. At this time, the surrounding demons seemed to sense some powerful force, and stopped attacking one after another, and an inexplicable sense of oppression filled the air.

"What's going on?" Zhao Yunlong asked vigilantly, the sword in his hand trembling slightly, ready to deal with possible changes at any time.

“It’s hard to say, but this feeling of oppression…” The mysterious woman frowned, with anxiety flashing in her eyes.

Suddenly, a golden light burst out from a corner of the hall, like the rising sun, illuminating the entire dark space. As the light gradually spread, a towering figure slowly emerged - it was a middle-aged man wearing golden armor and an imperial crown. His face was serious and solemn, as if the whole world was under his control.

Everyone was so shocked that they fell to their knees involuntarily.

"You are the brave ones who have passed the first test." The golden figure spoke slowly, his voice full of majesty, "I am the guardian of this area, and the legendary afterimage of the Emperor of Heaven."

Lin Feng was the first to react. He stood up and said with a firm look: "Excuse me, senior, what should we do next?" The Emperor of Heaven glanced at the four people and raised his mouth slightly: "Your performance is not bad. But if you want to gain real power, you still need to pass my test."

"What trial?" Zhao Yunlong asked, with a hint of caution in his tone.

The Emperor's gaze became sharper: "Fight with me."

The four of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel a little scared. The one in front of them was the legendary Emperor of Heaven!
"Fight with you..." Xiao Ran repeated in a low voice, feeling a huge pressure, "Senior, I'm afraid we are no match for you..."

"Don't be afraid," the Emperor smiled gently, but without any joking intention, "This battle is just a further test of your will and strength. If you lose, I will teach you the way of cultivation; if you win, the power inherited by the Emperor will truly belong to you."

Lin Feng clenched his fists, his eyes firm: "Then come on! Senior, please teach me!"

The man in gold patted Zhao Yunlong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, we have a chance of winning."

"Then let's go together!" the mysterious woman said firmly, with a burning fighting spirit in her eyes.

The four of them exchanged glances, then stepped forward at the same time, each preparing their own weapons and spells, and taking a stance to fight.

The Emperor slowly raised his right hand, and the golden light gathered into a dazzling ball of light in his palm, which then turned into a huge force rushing towards them. The four of them did not dare to neglect and immediately launched an offensive.

Zhao Yunlong wielded his sword, and the sword energy was like a rainbow, slashing towards the golden light; Lin Feng raised his long stick high and chopped it down with amazing force; the mysterious woman condensed blue light, forming a solid barrier to withstand the impact; Xiao Ran moved flexibly, looking for an opportunity to launch a fatal blow.

The battle was extremely fierce, and the four of them went all out in every move, but the Emperor seemed to be at ease, easily dissolving their attacks and continuously releasing powerful forces. Soon, the four of them gradually ran out of energy and their wounds gradually increased.

"It seems like this won't work..." Xiao Ran said gritting his teeth, his clothes already soaked with sweat.

Zhao Yunlong's face was solemn, and he panted and said, "We need new tactics."

"Let's try to attack the enemy together!" Lin Feng suggested in a deep voice.

"Join forces to attack the enemy?" The man in gold clothes had a flash of thought in his eyes. "Perhaps this is a good idea, but how should we cooperate?"

The mysterious woman nodded and said while panting: "We each use our strongest magic and aim at the Emperor of Heaven at the same time. As long as we can cause a little damage, there is a chance." There was determination in her eyes, as if she was ready to fight to the death.

The four of them quickly adjusted their positions. Lin Feng and Zhao Yunlong stood in the front, forming the first line of defense; Xiao Ran hid in the dark, ready to attack at any time; the mysterious woman gathered her strength in the back, ready to perform her most powerful magic.

"Get ready, let's attack together!" Lin Feng shouted loudly.

As soon as the words fell, the four of them moved at the same time. Zhao Yunlong swung his sword at the Emperor of Heaven, and the sword energy was like a rainbow, splitting the golden light in half. At the same time, Lin Feng raised his long stick and smashed it down with great force, and the huge force almost shook the air.

The mysterious woman formed seals with her hands in the back, blue light surrounded her body, and a strong chill surged from her body. She whispered a spell, and pushed her hands outward suddenly. A huge blue ball of light condensed in an instant and shot towards the Emperor of Heaven. Xiao Ran rushed out from the side of the Emperor of Heaven like a ghost, holding a short blade in his hand that flashed with a cold light and stabbed towards the heart of the Emperor of Heaven.

Facing the combined attack of the four, the Emperor's expression did not change at all. Instead, he smiled slightly and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot. The four people immediately felt something was wrong and were suddenly shocked.

At this moment, the figure of the Emperor of Heaven appeared again, this time behind them. He gently waved his right hand, and a golden light wave swept towards everyone.

"Be careful!" Zhao Yunlong shouted, turned around and stood in front of the three people, swinging his sword tightly, barely blocking part of the light wave. However, the remaining force still penetrated his defense and threw the four of them away.

When she landed, the mysterious woman's body hit a wall hard, and she groaned in pain. A trace of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth, and she seemed much weaker.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Ran quickly helped her up, his eyes full of concern.

The mysterious woman shook her head and tried to force out a smile: "It's okay... I just feel a little exhausted..."

Zhao Yunlong and Lin Feng also came over immediately to check her injuries. The man in gold looked gloomy, looking at the Emperor standing still in the distance, and whispered: "This is not a solution, we need to think of a countermeasure."

"We can't delay any longer. The longer it takes, the worse it will be for us." Lin Feng frowned, "We must resolve this battle as soon as possible!"

"Why don't I try again and distract him." Xiao Ran stood up, tightly gripped the short blade in his hand, with a determined look in his eyes.

Just as everyone was discussing, the space around them suddenly twisted, and a black shadow quietly emerged, accompanied by waves of gloomy aura, and several demon cultivators in black robes appeared in front of everyone.

The leading demon cultivator had a cold look in his eyes and sneered, "I didn't expect you to be able to hold on until here. In this case, let us lend a helping hand to the Emperor of Heaven and completely wipe out you ants!"

As he spoke, he flicked his finger lightly, and several black light bullets flew towards the crowd. At the same time, several other demon cultivators also began to cast spells, and the scene suddenly became more complicated.

"Oh no! It's a demon cultivator!" Lin Feng shouted, and immediately rushed forward, blocking most of the attacks with a long stick.

Zhao Yunlong also stepped forward and fought with another demon cultivator. The two men's swords and knife lights intertwined, and the battle was fierce and difficult to separate. Xiao Ran took advantage of the chaos and quickly shuttled between the enemies, trying to find a breakthrough.

The mysterious woman endured the pain and gathered blue light again, wanting to support her teammates. However, her body was almost at its limit, and every time she cast a spell, her condition worsened.

"Hurry, we have to protect her!" the man in gold clothes said anxiously, the worry in his eyes becoming more and more obvious. (End of this chapter)
