Chapter 595 - 595 Nine Lamps Burning Together

595 Nine Lamps Burning Together

“Hmph, what kind of bullsh*t test is this? The requirements are so high.”

Xia Yu’s face was full of displeasure. Although no one said anything, he could still see the ridicule in their eyes.

He had taken the test in a high profile, but only three ancient bronze lamps were lit.

While mocking, the crowd also sighed with regret. If even Xia Yu was like this, then would it not require a genius on the Hidden Dragon Rank to light five of them?

“Young lady, you should go and try.”

The stone tablet’s test caused a huge commotion and attracted many people.

They only waited for half an hour before someone arrived. It was a young girl who had just broken through to Immortal Foundation.

There was an old woman beside her. She was very strong and was half a step to the Ruler realm.

It was obvious that the young lady’s identity was not simple. The fact that she had such a powerful guard by her side was enough to prove her identity.

“Alright,” the young lady said.

When the young girl saw that so many people were looking at her, she lowered her head shyly and took small steps forward. She placed her delicate palm on the stone tablet.

In an instant, the stone tablet was abnormal. A light even more intense than Xia Yu’s test appeared.

A series of Dao sounds came from space, and a green light soared thousands of meters. Strange phenomena occurred.

“Eh? Who’s this young lady? Her talent is even better than Xia Yu’s.”

Many people turned pale with fright. They had thought that there was no hope of entering, but they did not expect this young girl’s talent to be so terrifying.

“There’s a chance.”

Lin Mo was overjoyed as well. He was prepared to go up alone, but he did not expect there to be so many geniuses here.

“Swish!”

With four consecutive sounds, the flames moved rhythmically, and four ancient bronze lamps lit up almost instantly.

This also gave people hope, and they believed that the fifth lamp would be ignited.

Unfortunately, they were disappointed. Four of the ancient bronze lamps were slowly burning, but the fifth lamp did not even have a single flame.

This meant that although she was more talented than Xia Yu, she was still not qualified to open the Kun Peng Nest…

Her name and portrait appeared on the stone tablet. The two words ‘Qin Si’ appeared before everyone’s eyes.

“She… From the Qin clan from Qin State. She actually came to Cloud Mist Island.”

Some people were shocked. A genius who had surpassed Xia Yu was from another state. This made them feel a little embarrassed.

“I failed…”

The young girl was unhappy. She thought that she could open it, but it turned out like this.

“Young lady, don’t be discouraged. You’ve only just broken through to Immortal Foundation, so there’s still a lot of room for improvement. Once you use the clan’s Body-tempering Secret Technique, you should be able to light five lamps.”

The old woman consoled the young girl. It was pretty good that her young lady could achieve this.

At least, it proved that Xia Yu, the Holy Son of the Holy Palace, was not as talented as her lady.

“Ah, there’s no time…”

Lin Mo sighed and walked forward. He could not wait any longer. Someone had entered the Kun Peng Nest…

“Oh, do you want to see your talent?”

Someone asked kindly when he saw Lin Mo approach the stone tablet. No one had any thoughts of him opening the nest.

When Lin Mo stepped forward, not many people looked at him and thought that he was just going to test his talent.

“Hey, wait a minute.”

When Lin Mo walked past Xia Yu, Xia Yu suddenly called out to him.

“What’s the matter?” Lin Mo asked in a tone that was neither haughty nor humble.

“How dare you? It’s your honor to have the Holy Son speak to you. Watch your attitude.” Xia Yu did not say anything, but his follower behind him spoke first, berating Lin Mo.

“Bad people stick together and act the same indeed…”

Lin Mo’s face was full of disdain. Xia Yu was arrogant and despotic, and so were his subordinates. He did not know why Xia Yu was stopping him at this moment.

“Although I don’t know what method you used to change your appearance, figure, and aura, I can still sense at such a close distance the person who killed my people.”

“Brat, hand over your life.”

Xia Yu said coldly. The Holy Palace had a unique secret technique that could allow one to leave a special aura.

This was meant to be used for revenge after being killed, but Xia Yu did not expect to find the person so quickly…

“Bang!”

Lin Mo raised his hand and blocked Xia Yu’s attack. At the same time, he flew to the stone tablet.

Now was not the time to fight. Entering the Kun Peng Nest was the most important thing.

Nonetheless, Lin Mo could not test his talent at the moment because Xia Yu had asked people to surround him and trap him here.

“Buzz.”

Suddenly, a light screen appeared in front of Lin Mo, blocking all the incoming attacks.

Xia Yu’s expression changed, and he looked somewhere not far away with fear.

“You from the Qin clan, what do you mean by this?” The only person he was afraid of was the old woman.

A powerhouse who was half a step into the Ruler realm was enough to sweep away everyone present.

“Xia Yu the Holy Son, please calm down. The people from the Black Death Sect have entered the Kun Peng Nest. The most important thing now is to open this place.”

Her intention was clear. She wanted Lin Mo to test and open the Kun Peng Nest.

“Do you think he can light five ancient bronze lamps? He’s about the same as me. He can light three of them at most.”

Xia Yu said disdainfully. He had experienced Lin Mo’s strength before. Lin Mo could fight with him but could not gain the upper hand.

How could he light five ancient bronze lamps with such strength?

“He should be able to open it…”

Qin Si, who was far away, spoke. Her face was slightly red, and her voice was very soft. Even so, everyone present heard her.

Hearing Qin Si giving Lin Mo such a high evaluation, Xia Yu instantly felt that he had lost all his face. He wanted to flare up, but he was afraid of the old woman.

“Alright, let him try. I also want to know his true identity.”

Xia Yu ordered his men to back off and not attack Lin Mo, but he did not put away his weapon.

Once Lin Mo was done with his test, he would be able to act. At that time, the people of the Qin clan would not interfere.

“Little friend, my young lady said that you’re not simple. Please don’t let me down.”

The old lady looked at Lin Mo with curiosity. She did not understand why the young lady said that he could open the Kun Peng Nest.

“Many thanks for your help, senior.” Lin Mo cupped his fists and bowed.

Under everyone’s gaze, he slowly placed his palm on the stone tablet.

As soon as he touched it, he could hear a strange buzzing sound coming from the stone tablet. It was very clear.

In the next moment, a powerful force gushed into his body, instantly activating the God Devouring Body.

The Soul Devouring Art circulated on its own, and at the same time, the immature Kun Peng Claws appeared. A familiar aura came from the stone tablet.

With the help of this power, Lin Mo had a feeling of enlightenment. He had learned the Kun Peng Claws in an instant.

“How magical and terrifying.”

Lin Mo’s heart trembled. ‘Is this the true nature of the Kun Peng Claws? Kun Peng has the power of Yin and Yang, but this is pure Yang energy…’

Once the Kun Peng Claws were used, even the True Dragon Claws would only be on par with it.

Lin Mo had thought that he would have to spend a long time mastering the Kun Peng Claws. He did not expect that a test would allow him to master the art in an instant…

At the same time, the outside world had undergone a huge change.

It was as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking. The stone tablet exploded, and the dust turned into a light curtain that filled the sky. Strange phenomena appeared, and the void trembled.

Rolling thunder clouds appeared in the sky, and the stars fell to the earth.

The nine ancient bronze lamps were ignited almost instantly. The flames burned fiercely, and the momentum was great…
