With the name 'Xie Wudi', Xie Tian entered his nineteenth death.
With speculations about the Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds, Xie Tian welcomed his twentieth rebirth.
"Why is there an image of Xie Wudi in the Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds?"
"What is the Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds testing?"
"Why is the Stage of Death related to the life and death of the Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds?"
Every question was worth pondering. It was a pity that he only managed to count how many questions he had before dying fifty-three times.
But he was very calm.
Because he had the Dark Blade by his side.
Boom!
Fifty-four times!
Boom!
Fifty-five times!
The Dark Blade trembled slightly, and a layer of black light shield appeared. Just like when he met Onyx Soul, it firmly protected Xie Tian. The aura that could easily shatter Xie Tian did not even cause a ripple on the light shield.
"Huuu!"
Xie Tian let out a breath of turbid air that he had held for fifty-five seconds. He also spat out the bone-chilling fear of dying fifty-five times. His heart was completely at peace.
"Xie Wudi!" Xie Tian muttered as he sat down cross-legged and raised his head to look at the image that was hundreds of feet tall.
Long green hair, wearing red armor, holding a blood sword.
Even if the long hair was dancing, the red armor was ferocious, and the blood sword was mottled, Xie Tian felt that Xie Wudi was a very clean person.
Clean was not Xie Wudi's outer appearance, but his life.
In this life, he seemed to have done only one thing. He stepped on a mountain of corpses, shed a river of blood, and walked to the throne of invincibility.
This was Xie Tian's first impression of Xie Wudi. It was not good or bad, because this matter was too clean, so clean that Xie Tian could not understand it at all.
Next, Xie Tian then thought of the Evil Emperor's inheritance. This was the only connection between him and Xie Wudi.
Suddenly, a light flashed in Xie Tian's mind.
"Grandpa Feng sent me to the death camp, could it be because of this Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds?"
Xie Tian frowned and thought of something else. "But Grandpa Feng said that I've already passed the test of the Evil Emperor's inheritance, but this place wants me to die more than fifty-five times. Why is that?"
He had one more question. He sighed. Just as he was about to cut off these distracting thoughts that were disturbing his mind, the blood-red world suddenly changed.
Xie Wudi's silhouette stopped roaring and slowly turned to look at Xie Tian.
"I have a son who will be born three thousand years later. He will roam the Nine States unhindered, and no one in the world can match him!"
"After experiencing three thousand life and death situations, you, my true successor, have stepped on corpses and blood."
Xie Tian was startled, and then he understood that the so-called three thousand deaths meant that he had died three thousand times just now when he was lost in thought.
In the next moment, he understood that these three thousand times of life and death meant that he had killed three thousand people on the Deathtrap Platform. If not for the Dark Blade.
"I will only be qualified to meet you after killing three thousand people."
There was no joy or disgust, but Xie Tian's heart palpitated. This palpitation made it difficult for him to breathe because he had another question.
"Could it be that the successor of the Evil Emperor's inheritance is fated to kill three thousand people on the death camp's Deathtrap Platform? What if I haven't killed enough?"
Suddenly, Xie Tian's heart trembled. Perhaps the Deathtrap Platform's purpose was only for this matter!
"The Evil Emperor's inheritance is based on evil. This world can accommodate righteousness and evil, but it cannot tolerate evil!"
Hearing this, Xie Tian seemed to understand a little.
Along the way, he had killed the heart of a living Bodhisattva, given the banknotes of the West River Bandits, and ignored the good and evil in this world. He had his own good and evil view, and this view was evil.
"The root of evil is the word 'I'!"
Xie Tian understood and looked at the silhouette, waiting for it to continue.
But the silhouette didn't say anything else. With a puff, a bloody light pounced at him. At the same time, the black barrier around Xie Tian disappeared.
"I bestow you with cultivation. When the War God Valley opens, receive my inheritance!"
Feeling the intent in the bloody light, Xie Tian shuddered.
Inheritance!
Only now did Xie Tian recall Xie Wudi's first words, 'my true successor.'
"If I, an outsider, am the true successor, then what is the descendant of his Xie Clan?"
Xie Tian's heart shook as he stood up, his eyes filled with disbelief.
At this moment, the Dark Blade entered Xie Tian's body and devoured the remaining ninety-nine percent of the bloody light when Xie Tian's cultivation rose to the peak of the Ninth Level Magic Power Realm.
In the process of devouring, there was a faint sound of fear and anger, but Xie Tian didn't notice it at all.
After an entire hour, Xie Tian took a deep breath and woke up from the endless confusion, but he couldn't say a word. He didn't even know what he should think.
Buzz!
The Dark Blade trembled and found something for the confused Xie Tian to do.
"Sigh!"
Sighing heavily, Xie Tian didn't have the mood to feel the surge in his cultivation. He followed the Dark Blade's guidance in Silence and entered the depths of the Nine Trials Forbidden Ground.
The Tianqi Exchange Conference was in full swing. After the top hundred competition, the top thirty-two were decided.
Among them, there were seven from the Dao Palace, six from the death camp, twelve from the eight major sects, and seven from the ten major clans.
The Tianqi Imperial Palace was the most honorable place in the Jin Dynasty. In terms of size, it was equivalent to Heaven Expansion City, but it controlled the fate of three hundred and sixty cities similar to Heaven Expansion City in the Jin Dynasty.
However, the man who controlled the fate of this place was lying on the grass, smiling at the figure of a young girl who was catching butterflies not far away.
It was as if in the most honorable and dignified eyes of the Jin Dynasty, the young girl was the dancing butterfly.
The man was dressed in white. He was the Divine Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, Shen Shao.
The young girl who caught the Divine Emperor's attention was Shen Shao's favorite daughter, Shen Ji.
"Among the top thirty-two, there is one from the Dao Palace and two from the death camp. They are all from the ten major clans. In this conference, the ten major clans are the most in the limelight!"
A thousand feet away from the Divine Emperor, a middle-aged official was kneeling and reporting the conference in a soft voice.
He didn't dare to speak loudly because he didn't dare to disturb the peace here. He also didn't dare to go near the Divine Emperor because the place where butterflies were caught was the forbidden area of the Imperial Palace, the Garden of Life and Death.
The Life and Death Stone in the Garden of Life and Death was blood red and nine feet tall. The words "Life and Death" were carved on it. It looked very ordinary.
However, the people who were qualified to step into this seemingly ordinary garden could be counted on one hand.
"Let's talk about something interesting."
The official was shocked when he heard this. The conference that attracted almost half of the geniuses of the cultivation world of the Nine States was actually boring in the eyes of the Divine Emperor!
"Speaking of which, this conference is quite funny. There are three geniuses with damaged right eyes, and their performance is surprising."
"Oh?" Shenshao showed a hint of interest. "I know about this. Their injuries haven't healed yet."
"Indeed. In my humble opinion, these four were probably warned by their elders not to heal their injuries. After all, Lord Wu Shang is behind this."
Shenshao smiled lightly and didn't deny it. He then asked, "Is Wu Shang still here?"
"Yes." The middle-aged official's face turned solemn at the mention of Wu Shang. "Lord Wu Shang has been watching for two days. Because of this, Wu Tu and Du Long fought against two of the Great Path of the Holy Zhi Palace and made it to the top thirty-two."
"Heh, two one-eyed dragons. Interesting." Shenshao smiled and stood up. He called out softly, "Shen Ji, father wants to watch the battles. Are you coming?"
"Father, please go. I still have butterflies to catch!"
The cheerful voice got further and further away. Seeing his beloved daughter run behind the Life and Death Stone, Shenshao shook his head helplessly and turned to leave.
"Let's go. I also want to know, other than Tianxin, which other genius in the conference is worthy of his attention?"
Until the two of them were far away, Shen Ji peeked out her extremely delicate and cute face.
Because of her age, this little face was not fully developed, but the perfect combination of her facial features had already formed a beautiful face.
"Hehe, what's so interesting about fighting and killing?"
Shen Ji smiled innocently. All the flowers in the Life and Death Garden paled in comparison. Even the colorful butterfly fluttering on her fingertips dimmed a little.
The entire Life and Death Garden was also filled with vitality because of this smile.
"Butterflies, oh butterflies, Shen Ji will let you go. I hope you live a long life!"
The colorful butterfly spread its wings and soared into the sky. Shen Ji sat under the Life and Death Stone, her small hands supporting her cheeks. She looked at the butterflies dancing in the sky with a yearning expression.
The yearning expression was not only for beauties, but also for death gods.
In the ten days in the Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds, Xie Tian always had a yearning expression. That was because Dark Blade in front of him had almost dug the entire Nine Trials Space three hundred feet deep and eaten countless good things.
The reason why he judged that it was good was not because of Xie Tian's profound knowledge, but because in these ten days, Dark Blade had already recovered to his state before the battle with Onyx Soul, or even better.
"I didn't expect Dark Blade to be so heaven-defying even when it comes to treasure hunting."
Xie Tian laughed in his heart. He finally understood why Dark Blade wanted him to enter the Nine Trials Forbidden Grounds.
A black object flew by, and Xie Tian reached out to grab it with great joy.
"Mixed Spider Lotus Root!"
He was not unfamiliar with this item as he had seen it in the Military Pavilion. He did not know how many military merits were needed because his father said he was thinking too much.
"This item can help Boss Jia and the other two completely improve their meridians and greatly increase their aptitude."
Of course, this was not the first treasure that Dark Blade had shared with him. How heaven-defying was Dark Blade? Even if it was trash that he did not want and was given to Xie Tian, it would still be a treasure that he could only dream of but never obtain.
Rumble …
There was a huge tremor in front of him. Xie Tian looked up and was instantly stunned.
Because Dark Blade was gnawing on a mountain.
This mountain was like a door that sealed the heaven and earth.
