Chu Fengmian also used his spiritual consciousness to check it out.
Chu Fengmian had lived two lifetimes, so his spiritual consciousness was much stronger than any of the Immortal Generals present.
However, how could he check it out?
The only thing that could be seen from within was pitch-black darkness. Other than that, nothing could be seen at all.
"This round of assessment is very simple. You just need to enter the passageway in order. As long as you can reach the end, you'll have completed the assessment."
Jian Ni said after seeing that everyone had probed for a while.
"Sir Jian Ni, what's in the passageway?"
The Flying Sword Emperor looked at Jian Ni and asked respectfully.
"I can't say. You just need to know that once you enter, do your best and reach the end."
Jian Ni shook his head and said.
"You're all Sword Principle experts, so there's no need to be so timid. Sword Principle is a path to advance courageously. If you're timid, how can you talk about the sword?"
"Who's willing to be the first to enter?"
Jian Ni glanced at everyone present. Everyone was hesitant as they couldn't find out what was in the passageway.
Judging from Jian Ni's tone, there would be a lot of danger in the assessment and no one was willing to be the first to enter.
"If no one is willing, then you go in first!"
Jian Ni glanced at everyone and his gaze suddenly fell on Blood Shadow Swordmaster. He raised his hand and pointed at the passageway on the right.
"Yes."
Blood Shadow Swordmaster saw that Jian Ni pointed at him first, so he could only brace himself and walk towards the right passageway. Blood Shadow Swordmaster took a step into the passageway and his figure immediately disappeared into the darkness.
After seeing Blood Shadow Swordmaster enter, everyone else came to the side of the passageway and wanted to check out what was going on inside.
The passageway seemed to have the effect of shielding energy fluctuations. When Blood Shadow Swordmaster entered, no one could sense any movement from the outside.
Time ticked by.
Half an hour passed, but there was still no sign of movement from the tunnel.
The middle-aged man, Jian Ni, stood in the middle of the palace and looked at the direction of the passageway calmly.
During this period of time, Kun Xu, the Sky Piercer, Xuan Cangtian and the others tried to talk to Jian Ni to ask about the Upper Sword Sect's Inheritance Examination.
However, Jian Ni's face was ice-cold, causing everyone to hit a wall.
Chu Fengmian heaved a sigh of relief.
Chu Fengmian couldn't even begin to imagine how powerful a person who had lived for tens of millions of years would be. An immortal emperor, or even a ruler who surpassed immortal emperors?
However, Chu Fengmian still couldn't touch such a powerful existence.
However, Chu Fengmian was extremely curious about exactly who this middle aged man before him was. Since this person had walked out from the depths of the palace, then he was definitely related to the Sword Sect.
"Who are you?"
Before Chu Fengmian could speak, the Blood Shadow Swordmaster couldn't help but ask.
"Me? You can call me Jian Ni. As for all of you, I'm the examiner for the Upper Sword Sect's test this time. I'll be the one to decide who will pass the test and obtain the inheritance of the Upper Sword Sect. "
The middle-aged man, Jian Ni, looked at the crowd and said slowly.
"Jian Ni?"
Hearing this name, everyone present furrowed their brows. They were searching for this name in their minds, but they had never heard of such a name.
Most of the sword cultivators present came from the Extraterritorial Starry Sky, so they didn't know much about the Upper Sword Sect. After all, the Upper Sword Sect was one of the Nine Regions Sects.
Although Chu Fengmian, Xuan Cangtian, and Gu Qianjun came from the Nine Regions Sects, they didn't have a deep understanding of the Upper Sword Sect.
The Upper Sword Sect had been destroyed tens of millions of years ago and was completely annihilated in the long river of history.
Chu Fengmian's understanding of the Upper Sword Sect was limited to a few words in some ancient books. However, many of the contents recorded in these ancient books were heard from other places, so it wasn't certain if they were true or false.
Even though the Upper Sword Sect did once have an invincible expert named Jian Ni, Chu Fengmian couldn't recognize him now.
However, Chu Fengmian believed Jian Ni's words. After all, this person came out from the depths of the palace. Moreover, Chu Fengmian could see that this person had controlled the restriction when he came out from the depths of the palace.
Just based on this point alone, it was enough to prove that this person was indeed from the Upper Sword Sect.
"This time, the inheritance of the Upper Sword Sect has appeared once again. A total of twelve Upper Sword Executor Tokens have been issued. All twelve of you have the opportunity to obtain the inheritance of the Upper Sword Sect. However, only one person can truly obtain the inheritance."
"As for the others, although they might not necessarily obtain the inheritance, they will also be rewarded if they perform well in the assessment."
"However, there will be great danger in this inheritance. If anyone is afraid of death, you can leave now."
Jian Ni swept his gaze across the crowd and suddenly waved his hand. An array suddenly appeared in front of everyone. There were no restrictions placed on the array, so everyone knew that the array led to the Nine Regions.
"This is the only chance to withdraw. Those who stay will have their lives decided by fate!"
Everyone looked at the array, but no one stepped forward to leave.
After all, everyone had come to the Upper Sword Sect Remnant for the inheritance of the Upper Sword Sect. Just to obtain the Upper Sword Executor Token, it had set off a bloody storm. Who knew how many experts had fallen in the Nine Regions?
None of the people present were afraid of death. After coming here, no one was willing to leave.
"Very well. Since no one is leaving, then the Upper Sword Sect's inheritance assessment can be considered to have officially begun."
Jian Ni waved his hand and the teleportation array suddenly disappeared.
Once the teleportation array dissipated, it would mean that everyone had lost their way out. Unless they passed the tests one by one, they would die in the tests. This was the only way out.
As the teleportation array left, Jian Ni's palm moved again and a surge of spiritual energy burst out. Two paths appeared in the depths of the palace and the stone doors that sealed the two paths opened.
The two paths were pitch-black and deep, and one couldn't see the end of it. Many of the people present used their common sense and spiritual awareness to investigate, but it was to no avail.
