"There are nine paths here. Among them, only one is a path of life. The other eight are paths of death. Once you step into them, you will die without a doubt. Choose one yourself!"
That voice sounded again.
Lu Ming's heart trembled.
Nine paths, eight paths of death, and one path of life. If he were to choose it himself, the chance of survival would only be one in nine.
Was this a test of luck?
"Senior, do you have any hints?" Lu Ming asked.
"There are no hints. Choose freely!" The voice sounded.
Lu Ming's brows furrowed even tighter.
"Is it really a test of luck? Impossible. Luck is an illusory thing. No one can say for sure. Since the person who set up these formations wanted to test me, it would not be a test of luck. Otherwise, what's the point of the first two stages? It's better to test my luck directly. "
Lu Ming's mind spun rapidly.
"You have five minutes to consider. If you don't choose, just back off!"
That voice sounded again.
"Why do I need five minutes? I can make my decision now!"
Lu Ming smiled faintly and strode toward the path in the middle.
Nine paths appeared in front of Xie Nianqing. It was exactly the same as Lu Ming's. Xie Nianqing pondered for a moment and strode toward the fourth path.
Kenfei Ryū looked at the nine paths in front of him and frowned. After pondering for a while, he sighed and turned to leave.
After a short while, his figure appeared at the foot of the mountain.
Faced with only one in nine paths of life, how many people could make a choice?
After Lu Ming stepped into the middle path, he found himself in a huge cave the next moment.
The cave was very spacious. In the middle of the cave, there was an altar.
At this moment, a light flashed in the cave and another figure appeared.
"Little Qing!"
Lu Ming's eyes lit up. It was Xie Nianqing.
"Lu Ming!"
Xie Nianqing looked at Lu Ming and walked over with a smile.
"Sure enough, the nine paths are a lie!"
Xie Nianqing said with a smile.
"It's not really a lie, but it requires a person's courage and wisdom!"
Lu Ming said.
Lu Ming speculated that the previous nine paths were not eight paths of death and one path of life, but all paths of life.
As for saying that there were eight dead ends, it was purely a bluff.
This depended on everyone's judgment. Of course, it also required a lot of courage.
For some people, even if they had guessed the answer, whether or not they dared to step in was another matter altogether.
What if there really was a dead end? Courage is needed here.
Without a doubt, Xie Nianqing and Lu Ming had successfully passed that trial.
After a while, no one else appeared except for Lu Ming and Xie Nianqing.
"Sigh, after so many years, someone has finally come here!"
At that instant, a sigh could be heard.
"Who?"
Lu Ming and Xie Nianqing's expressions flickered.
"Aren't you here to find me?"
The voice could be heard. Following this, Lu Ming saw a figure appear on the altar in the middle.
It was a middle-aged man around the age of forty, wearing a long robe with two different colors. He floated in mid-air while emitting a terrifying pressure from his body.
The middle-aged man did not unleash his aura, but the pressure was naturally emitted from his body. Lu Ming felt like he was facing the vast Heavens and Earth, a whole new world.
"Powerful, too powerful!"
Lu Ming was astounded.
However, it was obvious that the middle-aged man did not have a physical body, but an illusionary one, as if his body was transparent.
"Powerful, too powerful. This is a Martial Emperor, a Martial Emperor Realm expert."
Dandan screamed in fright. Her limbs and head shrank back into the turtle shell.
Lu Ming and Xie Nianqing were astounded.
Martial Emperor Realm expert, wasn't that a Martial Emperor?
The person before them was a Martial Emperor? Could it be that the Martial Emperor's treasure was real?
"Interesting little tortoise."
The middle-aged man glanced at Dandan, then his eyes fell on Lu Ming, then on Xie Nianqing, as if the sun, the moon, and the stars were changing in his eyes.
"Interesting little guys, you're hiding a lot of things."
The middle-aged man smiled and waved his hand.
In that instant, Lu Ming seemed to be unable to control himself. Five mental rings were suspended above his head.
"Five stages, and ten Spiritual Lamps were lit. Powerful, powerful. I was only like this back then. Haha, good!"
The middle-aged man laughed.
"Senior, may I know who you are? Did you set up the entrance to the Martial Emperor's treasure in the Chaotic Astral Ocean? "
Lu Ming asked.
The man before them should be the Ancient Ancestor that the people of the underground world talked about.
"Who am I? Sigh, it's been thousands of years. I've almost forgotten myself. "
The middle-aged man sighed faintly. After a moment of silence, he said, "My name is Liao Cang!"
"Liao Cang?"
Lu Ming was confused. He had never heard of this name before.
However, Xie Nianqing exclaimed, "Liao Cang, you're the Talisman Puppet Emperor, the Sect Leader of the Talisman Puppet Sect, Liao Cang!"
Xie Nianqing opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
"What? He is a Talisman Puppet Emperor? "Lu Ming also turned pale with fright, his heart trembling.
He had never heard of the name Liao Cang, but the Talisman Puppet Emperor was something that many people had heard of.
There were four overlord forces in the Eastern Wilderness.
Emperor Heaven Divine Palace, Heavenly Corpse Sect, Sky Monster Valley, and Talisman Puppet Sect.
The Talisman Puppet Sect focused on inscriptions. They mainly cultivated the Dao of Inscriptions, and martial arts were only supplementary.
The Talisman Puppet Emperor was the Sect Leader of the Talisman Puppet Sect. His Dao of Inscriptions had reached Level 9, which was equivalent to the Martial Emperor Realm.
He was as famous as Martial Emperor Di Yi. There were only a handful of Martial Emperors in the Eastern Wilderness. He could shake the entire Eastern Wilderness with a stomp of his feet.
He was even one of the top experts in the entire Divine Wilderness Continent.
It was said that the Talisman Puppet Emperor had fallen three thousand years ago. As for why he had fallen, it had always been a mystery.
But why would he appear underground?
Lu Ming and Xie Nianqing had countless questions in their hearts.
"Little girl, you know quite a lot. Your bloodline is very special. You must be from a family in the Middle Continent, right?"
Liao Cang smiled.
Xie Nianqing didn't say anything.
Lu Ming's heart trembled.
Middle Continent. Xie Nianqing was from the Middle Continent. Then why was she in the Eastern Wilderness?
"You must want to know what happened, right? Why am I here? "
Liao Cang said.
Lu Ming and Xie Nianqing nodded.
"Actually, I was ambushed. The person who ambushed me was the Palace Master of the Heavenly Divine Palace, Martial Emperor Di Yi!"
Liao Cang said word by word.
"What?"
Lu Ming's heart trembled again.
The Talisman Puppet Emperor, Liao Cang, was ambushed by Martial Emperor Di Yi? This was completely out of their expectations.
