Chapter 59 - The Mysterious Old Man
After entering the light curtain, Feng Yun and Zi Ling appeared in an ancient vicissitudes' room full of ancient symbols, the entire room was white-colored and looked as new. There was not even a crack on the walls or the floor but has ancient patterns printed on the walls the same as the stone door.
There was a squeaking sound, and a figure appeared in the center of the room, floating in the air. That was an old man in a white-clothed, has silver-colored hair and beard, even his eyebrows also had silver-colored. The old man excluding an ancient aura, Feng Yun looked at the silver-haired old man, standing in front of the silver-haired old man, Feng Yun felt like, he was a tiny and which was standing in front of a giant elephant.
"It has been 10,000 years, and finally someone has come here."
Silver lights bursts out of the eyes of the old man, looking at Feng Yun and Zi Ling and said, his voice was ancient chants, hypnotizing Feng Yun and Zi Ling.
'I didn't expect that the legacy of Ancient Fire Demon Clan is still alive." the old man thought to himself. When he looked at Feng Yun, a slight fluctuation appeared in his eyes. Just one glance he recognized the bloodline of Feng Yun.
"You are..." Feng Yun watched cautiously at the silver-haired old man, and sweat beads appeared on his forehead. At this moment, Feng Yun felt that his all secret revealed to the old man.
Although the old man was a few meters away from him, he senses a thick sense of danger from the silver-haired old man, he does not doubt have taken that this old man wants to kill himself, I am afraid that he has no chance of a fightback.
"I am a remnant soul, the owner of this stone temple, as well as keeper of this Secret Realm." The old man said as he stared at Feng Yun: "Junior, do you want to take my test."
"What test?" Feng Yun asked with a surprised tone.
"A test that will prove your worth, but if you fail the test, you may lose your life." The old man said slowly. ���However, if you can pass the test, you will inherit the most valuable thing of this Secret Realm. "
"Senior, Can you tell me how difficult this test?" Feng Yun said.
"This secret realm has existed for a hundred thousand years, there were many great chances in this Secret Realm but there is only one inheritance trial room. Many extraordinary juniors have taken the test but unfortunately, so far, no one has passed the test, and they all lost their lives." The old man said with a natural voice.
"No one passed the test and all lost their lives."
Learning about the difficulty of the test, Feng Yun and Zi Ling took a breath and hesitated.
"Juniors, if you are afraid to take the test, I can send you out, but there is only one chance, how to choose that is your own decision." the silver-haired old man looked at the hesitant face of Feng Yun whispered.
"Senior, why is only me? What about her." Feng Yun asked as he felt that the silver-haired old man was only asking him to take the test, not both of them. Zi Ling has also had a great talent not less than Feng Yun but the old man's attention was only at him the entire time.
"You had an Ancient Fire Demon bloodline but her bloodline is not pure enough to get my family's inheritance." the old man said with an expressionless tone.
"How did you know?" Feng Yun was shocked after listening to the old man. This was only a remnant of soul, and he recognized the bloodlines of Feng Yun with one glance than how amazing could be this old man when he was alive. A shiver run down through the spine of Feng Yun, as he thought about this.
"You don't have too afraid of me, there are many extraordinary things in this world, you will slowly discover them." the old man said after seeing the socked expression of Feng Yun.
Zi Ling was also stunned after hearing the talks of two of them, although she did not know that how amazing the ancient fire demon bloodline of Feng Yun, but she could guess that it was definitely a high grade because anything related to the Ancient Era was an extraordinary thing.
"What will happen to her after I entered into the test." Feng Yun looked at Zi Ling with a concerned look and held her hand in his hand. After a slight resistance, she let him hold her hand.
"Don't worry even if she did not take the test, I will give her a reward whether you fail or pass the test." the old man said with a slight smile.
The path of cultivation's journey is based on the fate of heaven. It is a dilemma between life and death. If you can't sharpen yourself in life and death situations, you will be eliminated sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Feng Yun took a deep breath and said with a firm tone. "Senior, I am willing to accept the test."
"Feng Yun did you not hear him, nobody left alive after taking the test. Why do you want to take such a dangerous test?" Zi Ling was stunned for a moment after hearing Feng Yun. She held the hand of Feng Yun with her both hands, staring at his face, and pursued Feng Yun to not take the test.
"I have to try once, even it is dangerous. But I promised you that I will come back alive." Feng Yun hugged Zi Ling, this time she did not deny Feng Yun, but she slowly hugged Feng Yun.
"Wait for me." After releasing her from his arms, Feng Yun kissed Zi Ling on her forehead and said.
"Take care of yourself, I will wait for your return." Zi Ling whispered as her heart wavered when Feng Yun kissed on her forehead.
"Senior, I am ready to take the test." Feng Yun said as he bowed to the old man.
"Okay, First take this healing pill and heal your injuries." the old man waved his hand, a mysterious pill bottle appeared in the air moved toward Feng Yun. Feng Yun stretched his hand and took the bottle. There was two white colored pills inside the small jade bottle.
