Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

On the outskirts of Tianhuang City, a figure dressed in a black robe, with his entire body covered in the robe, came stealthily to the outside of Tianhuang City.

The figure glanced at several special places in Tianhuang City, and with a withered hand, he carefully took out a bottle of medicine that exuded an evil aura.

With the other hand, he removed the stopper of the medicine bottle, and then he pinched his fingers to perform a spell, and streams of deep purple mist were drawn out of the medicine bottle.

The deep purple mist dissipated silently in the air, and then slowly drifted in several directions outside the city.

In an abandoned house outside Tianhuang City, a disciple of the Dark Temple was staring carefully into the distance, not noticing the purple mist floating behind him.

This wisp of purple mist strangely penetrated into the nostrils of the Dark Temple disciple.

The cultivator who had reached the late Yuanwu stage was frozen in place the moment the purple mist rushed into his body.

Then, a trace of fear appeared on his face. He wanted to say something, but a hint of purple instantly appeared on his face!
The next moment, he lost all his life, and his body and clothes began to turn into purple smoke and disappeared into the house.

The same scene appeared in several other places.

These are the secret outposts deployed by the Dark Temple in Tianhuang City.

The Temple has been hunted by various forces in the Tianxuan Realm over the years. When holding such a grand event as the selection of the Son of God, it will naturally be on guard against the spying of various forces headed by Dayan Dao Sect.

These secret outposts deployed around Tianhuang City are one of the means.

But now, all the secret sentries were precisely poisoned to death by this mysterious man in black robe.

After dealing with all the secret sentries, the man in black robe took out a strange black bird from his robe.

Holding the strange bird in his hands, the man in black robe whispered in the strange bird's ear in a hoarse voice:
"Go, tell your master that I have agreed to his request, and I hope he will keep his promise."

The strange bird tilted its head and glanced at the man in black robe in a very intelligent manner, then instantly turned into an arrow and disappeared into the sky.

After doing all this, the man in black robe slowly walked into Tianhuang City.

In the center of Tianhuang City, the selection of the Son of God is still going on.

At this time, the second level has come to an end.

Everything happened just as most people had guessed. Fang Xu took advantage of the "loophole" and occupied four high-quality resource points. With the arrival of each settlement time point, his points would increase sharply.

Now, he ranks first with 270 points, and the gap between him and the second place has become a big gap.

Obviously, as of now, there is no suspense about the second level.

Even in the third level, as long as the other candidates do not have the strength to kill Fang Xu instantly and give him time to surrender, he can win the championship of this Son of God selection and successfully claim the position of Son of God by surrendering.

In the square of the central temple, the disciples of many temples have become numb at this time.

Some of them, while slandering Fang Xu, also did some simple thinking.

I feel that Fang Xu’s ability to achieve such results is definitely not as simple as taking advantage of a loophole in the trial.

Others have changed their initial views at this time and feel that Fang Xu is wise enough.

It might not be a bad thing to let such a person lead the temple in the future.

After all, they were all participating in the trial for the first time. There were dozens of candidates, so why was Fang Xu the only one who could discover the loophole in the first place?

In terms of background and strength, the other candidates seem to be much stronger than Fang Xu.

Moreover, the families and forces behind them must be very experienced in some matters related to the selection of the Son of God.

On the other hand, Fang Xu had only joined the temple for a few years.

Comprehensively speaking, the gap between the other candidates and Fang Xu is quite large.

After all, wisdom is also part of strength.

Without wisdom, no matter how strong you are, you are just a reckless man.

This kind of person is only suitable for doing things like fighting and killing, and is not suitable for leading the temple.

The master of the Dark Temple needs a leader who is both brave and resourceful.

The rest of the people boycotted Fang Xu mindlessly, thinking that this selection of the Son of God was unfair.

It would be a shame for the temple if an opportunist like Fang Xu were allowed to become the Son of God.

They have even decided that if the elders of the temple finally unanimously decide to let Fang Xu become the Son of God, they might leave the temple or even betray it.

There is actually a difference between separation and betrayal.

Before the Tianxuan Realm, almost all forces were members of the Dark Temple.

But with the rise of Dayan Dao Zong, some forces chose to betray the temple and help Dayan Dao Zong to deal with the temple.

Others, in the process of being hunted down over the years, gradually felt the crisis and chose to leave the Dark Temple and remain neutral.

This is also allowed by Dayan Dao Zong.

As long as you declare your separation from the Dark Temple, your safety will be guaranteed even if you don't help deal with the temple.

It is precisely because of this that many forces, after having enough of hiding from place to place, chose to leave.

Among the three immortals, Qi Minguo was originally one of the forces of the Dark Temple.

This Tianhuang City was once a city of the Qi Republic.

At that time, the Qi Minguo built the entire Tianhuang City as the headquarters of the Dark Temple, and used Tianhuang City to fight against the Dayan Dao Sect for many years.

Later, a traitor appeared in Tianhuang City, broke all the city defense formations of Tianhuang City, and joined forces with Dayan Dao Sect to sell out the entire Tianhuang City.

After that battle, the Dark Temple suffered heavy losses.

Three of the seven temple elders were killed in the battle, and the temple master was also seriously injured.

The entire Tianhuang City was reduced to ruins and became a forbidden place.

Time passed bit by bit.

The second level ended quickly.

The Three Gods Space also slowly disappeared, and for a moment, the consciousness of all the candidates returned to their bodies.

After these candidates regained consciousness, most of them looked at Shi Buyu.

Some of them looked at him unkindly, as if they were ready to settle the score with him the next moment.

Shi Buyu felt a little frightened by these people's stares, and didn't know what was going on for a moment.

At the end of the second level, he led the corpse puppets to attack the bases of many candidates.

But the candidates he chose were all powerful figures in the temple.

At least he did not touch forces like Yanhuang Palace and Tianshu Sect, which are currently the strongest forces in the temple.

But now, why are the people from Yanhuang Palace and Tianshu Gate also staring at me, as if they want to skin me alive?
The corpse was puzzled, but not overly worried.

This is the selection of the Son of God, and everything I do is according to the rules.

Moreover, he was very restrained when plundering those people. He only took the points and did not kill innocent people.

At least it doesn't offend them too much.

Now let’s look at the points.

At the end of the second level, he plundered more than a dozen candidates and gained a lot of points from them.

Including the high-quality resource points he had been occupying, he obtained a total of more than 70 points in the second level.

This amount of points is enough to crush others and become the top of the list!
Shi Buyu looked at the huge stone tablet in the square with full confidence. His eyes passed over everyone and looked towards the top of the stone tablet.

"Ok?"

When he saw Fang Xu's name on the top of the stone tablet, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

In the first level, Fang Xu was able to get first place, which was because he had some skills to use.

In ancient times, there were some secret techniques such as telepathy that could help him pass the first level faster.

But there are not many tricks to use in the second level.

I have already taken advantage of a loophole by relying on my methods of controlling and refining corpses. Is there anyone who has a better method than mine?
Fang Xu...

Shi Buyu thought of the time when Fang Xu had directly occupied a top-quality resource point when he had just entered the second level.

The best resource point can get one more point than yourself for one settlement time. But this is not right.

He remembered that when he was in the Three Gods Space, the top resource point occupied by Fang Xu was breached...

Moreover, even if it is not breached, the best resource points are only one point more than the high-quality resource points.

All the settlement time taken together is just over ten minutes.

How could I...

Out of curiosity, Shi Buyu looked at the points behind Fang Xu's name.

seventy-nine……

What a pity, he only has one point more than me!
wrong!

That's two hundred and seventy-nine points!

Shi Buyu was shocked to find that the score behind Fang Xu's name was actually 279 points!

How can this be! ?
The second level lasts a total of sixty hours, with fifteen settlement time points.

Even if he didn't miss any of them, it would only be 60 points, so what happened to these 279 points! ?
At this time, it was not only Shi Buyu who noticed this abnormality.

Other candidates also noticed the points behind Fang Xu's name and found it difficult to understand how he got so many points.

There are only about sixty candidates participating in the second round.

Fang Xu’s points alone are almost the sum of the points from the second to the last place!

Is there something wrong with the stone tablet?
The first thing all the candidates could think of was that there was something wrong with the stone tablet.

Otherwise, no one could possibly get so many points.

Their eyes were fixed on Qi Shaoyu on the high platform, wanting to hear from her whether the "stone tablet is wrong" statement was true.

But Qi Shaoyu said calmly: "The second level has ended, and everyone's results are on the stone tablet."

"I'll ask you the same question again. Is there anyone who wants to quit?"

As soon as she finished speaking, all the candidates became excited.

Qi Shaoyu did not say that the stone tablet was wrong, which means that the points on the stone tablet are accurate.

Most of the temple disciples around were silent, proving that they had witnessed with their own eyes how Fang Xu obtained these points.

In the end what happened?
Everyone looked at each other.

They were in the Three Gods Space and were not aware that Fang Xu occupied four high-quality resource points by himself.

What they didn't know was that the plunderer they thought was a silent corpse was actually Fang Xu.

Among the more than sixty candidates, only more than ten were plundered by Shi Buyu, and the rest were plundered by Fang Xu and Gu Yuxi.

Some candidates have been robbed more than once.

There were also some smart people among them. When they noticed that Shi Buyu had only 78 points, they instantly realized that the person who robbed them might not be Shi Buyu.

Could it be that Fang Xu?
But in the entire Tianxuan Realm, when it comes to the means of refining and controlling corpses, the Three Corpses Sect is the best.

In the Three Gods Space, they couldn't think of anyone else who could control hundreds of thousands of corpse puppets except the Three Corpses Sect.

At this moment, Shi Buyu also thought of the scene in which he was robbed in the Three Gods Space, and looked at Fang Xu with a puzzled look.

Feeling Shi Buyu's gaze, Fang Xu pretended to be calm and stared at the stone tablet. Looking at his score of 279, he felt a little distressed.

Am I being too high-profile?

The leader is taller than the second place, isn’t that bad?
But you can't blame him.

The culprits behind all this are Bone Prison Breath and the Snake King.

After looting several high-quality resource points, the two guys gradually got a little too excited.

After all, high-quality soul crystals may not be of much use to them, but their subordinates can use them.

Therefore, in order to improve the strength of their subordinates, under the leadership of Bone Prison and Snake King, they simply let themselves go in the second half of the second level.

Not only did it plunder the points of other candidates.

All the resource points they encountered along the way were swept away by them.

For this reason, the will of heaven and earth in the Three Gods Space wanted to punish them more than once.

However, perhaps because the will of heaven and earth in that world was severely damaged, the so-called punishment had little effect on them.

During the process, Bone Prison Breath and the Snake King each refined their own top-grade soul crystals, greatly increasing their strength.

Especially Bone Prison Breath. After refining two top-grade soul crystals, the whole person suddenly became weird and unpredictable.

When the second level was about to end, he even told Fang Xu that he would come outside to find him soon.

It seemed that the two top-grade soul crystals gave him the power to escape from the Three Gods Space.

"No one quit?"

"Then I declare that the third level begins."

On the high platform, Qi Shaoyu saw that no one was willing to quit, so he directly announced the start of the third level.

The third level is gladiatorial combat.

The so-called gladiatorial combat is, of course, pure fighting for relief.

In this stage, all candidates will be randomly selected and enter the arena in pairs.

In the duel arena, the candidate must fight with the opponent with his own guards.

The winning party will get two points, the losing party will lose one point, and surrendering before a quarter of an hour will lose five points.

Theoretically speaking, if you are very strong at this level, you can get up to more than 120 points.

But this time all the candidates were not so optimistic.

Because now Fang Xu's total score has reached 289 points, including the ten points he gained in the first level.

In the third level of the competition, as long as he surrenders no more than twenty times, his total points will be higher than all of them!

There are still sixty-five candidates left. Can these sixty-five teams make Fang Xu surrender twenty times?
Several candidates with the highest chances of winning the championship, such as Shi Buyu of the Sanshi Sect, the Yanhuang Sect, and the Tianshu Sect, were now looking at all the candidates present, wondering how their guards would compare to Fang Xu.

Qi Shaoyu didn't leave them much time.

After announcing the start of the third level, someone was immediately asked to operate the mechanism to activate the three god statues.

As the eyes of the three gods' statues shed divine light, the two candidates present were directly selected.

The two candidates and the guards behind them were immediately sucked into the God's Arena, ready to start fighting.

No one else can see this battle.

All I can do is wait quietly for the fight to end.

Time passed bit by bit.

The quarter of an hour passed quickly and no one on either side surrendered.

But one side is clearly at a disadvantage.

The guards behind the stone pillars fell one after another.

Obviously, their consciousness bodies were beheaded in the arena.

As more than half of the guards of one of the candidates were killed or injured, the divine light emanating from the statue of the three gods suddenly trembled, and the consciousness of the two candidates and their guards were instantly pulled back to reality.

The winning candidate had a look of joy on his face, while the other candidate had a look of dejection on his face.

Immediately afterwards, the divine light on the three gods statues activated again.

This time, Fang Xu and another candidate whose strength had reached the initial stage of the Dharma Realm were covered.

In an instant, Fang Xu and his opponent's consciousness were sucked into a huge duel arena. (End of this chapter)
