Chapter 482 - Inheritance (3)

The transparent figure didn't care about how they reacted as it turned to the beast and asked, "So, what's the ranking here?"

The beast first turned to Wang Jian and said, "This one is the one who ranked third, so he will receive his reward first."

Wang Jian slightly knitted his brows when he heard this and he couldn't help asking, "Why am I third?"

While he didn't mind being ranked behind Lin Fan since he knew that he couldn't compare to him, he wasn't willing to accept being ranked behind Mo Ze Chen because he knew that in every way, he was better than Mo Ze Chen.

It was too bad that he didn't know what the rankings were based on, which was why he didn't know he was ranked third.

While it was true that in terms of every other factor, he was above Mo Ze Chen, but there was one factor that he was lacking in.

Mo Ze Chen had been following Lin Fan the entire time, so the benefits that he gained weren't small. While they had all been outside trying to find a way in, Mo Ze Chen had received special items from each trial that Lin Fan gave him.

This made him much stronger, or at least much stronger when it came to the concentration of golden glow that was in his forehead. When it came to that, it was the one place that Wang Jian couldn't compare in.

It was just too bad that neither of them had taken advantage of the game breaking mechanics of the labyrinth, which would have even allowed them to surpass Lin Fan.

It wasn't the transparent figure that explained the reason to Wang Jian, he was too lazy to even look at him. Rather it was the beast who looked at Wang Jian with a gaze like he was looking down on an ant as he said, "You have the lowest achievements, so you are ranked third. Do you not understand simple words?"

Wang Jian might have been able to accept it if he had been given a reason at least, but the words that the beast used were just too ugly and it hurt his pride.

Wang Jian revealed an unwillingness to submit as he said while pointing at Mo Ze Chen, "No matter how you look at it, I should be above him."

The beast looked at Mo Ze Chen and turned back to Wang Jian before saying, "No, his achievements are greater than yours."

Having it put so bluntly was another blow to Wang Jian and it stung his pride. He could almost feel his face stinging like he had just been slapped there.

This time, Wang Jian didn't waste any words and just asked, "Why?"

The beast revealed a smile when it heard this and it gestured behind itself at Lin Fan as it said, "Because he followed him the entire time."

When Wang Jian heard this, he turned to look at Lin Fan with a complicated look. After all, Lin Fan was the source of the heart demon inside his heart and even if he wanted to say something, it was still affecting him.

Wang Jian still had that unwilling look on his face, but he struggled to say anything.

As the beast was about to say something else, the transparent figure reached out and hit the beast on the back of the head before saying, "That's enough teasing for now."

The beast stuck out its tongue, but it didn't say anything else beyond this.

The transparent figure raised a hand and there was a golden glow that appeared at the end of his finger as he said, "Young man, there's no need to worry about this now. Even if you lose today, that doesn't mean you will lose tomorrow."

When Wang Jian heard this, there was a grateful look that appeared in his eyes. He had no way of refuting the beast since it involved Lin Fan and the mark that Lin Fan had left on him was just too profound for him to deny.

Now that this transparent figure had offered him a way out, naturally he was grateful so he said, "Thank you senior."

The transparent figure raised his finger and there was a ball of golden light that came out of his finger, floating in the air. After this ball of light came out, the transparent figure said, "Will you accept my inheritance?"

Wang Jian naturally had his own doubts about this, but he also took a look at Lin Fan with a complicated look when the transparent figure asked this. As he looked at Lin Fan, the emotions in his eyes changed a few times before he turned back to the transparent figure.

Looking right at the transparent figure, or rather ball of golden light that was floating in front of him, he hesitated once more before saying with a nod, "Senior, please give me your inheritance."

Naturally knew that there was danger in this since there was the chance that this senior he didn't know had bad intentions, but there were rewards that came with risks. If this was a proper inheritance though, it would certainly make him stronger based on how strong this person was.

Wang Jian could tell that this transparent figure was much stronger than the beast, it was even stronger than his own master. He even felt that this transparent figure was even stronger than the sect master of the Myriad Sword Hall.

Just who was this person and why had he never heard of him before?"

The transparent figure gave a nod and with a single flick of his finger, the ball of golden light flew through the air towards Wang Jian. It floated slowly through the air until it arrived right in front of Wang Jian.

When Wang Jian was thinking about how to integrate it into himself, it suddenly moved up to his forehead. As if incited by something, the golden diamond that was on his forehead suddenly appeared before it accepted the ball of golden light.

The moment that the ball of golden light entered Wang Jian's forehead, he immediately knitted his brows like something was wrong.

When Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen saw this, they immediately raised their weapons and looked warily at the transparent figure, but that transparent figure completely ignored them. Instead it was the beast that came forward, standing behind the transparent figure looking at Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen with a smile on its face, but it didn't seem like it was planning on attacking them.

However, it was clearly a different story if Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen were to make a move.

While they had been planning on taking care of this Nascent Soul Realm beast, the situation had now changed with the addition of the transparent figure. While Mo Ze Chen might have an artifact that could be used to deal with the Nascent Soul Realm beast, he didn't have one to deal with the transparent figure.

Lin Fan was someone who had also met experts that were at the peak of this realm and the aura that the transparent figure was giving off was even stronger than Qing Ao.

Could it be that this person was someone who was even stronger than Qing Ao?

But Qing Ao was already at the very peak of this realm, so for this person to be stronger than him, it would mean…

Still, before they did anything, they were planning on observing him since that was the best move for them. Before they knew what this transparent figure's real intentions were, they wouldn't make any rash moves.

So after looking at the transparent figure for a bit, they turned back to observe Wang Jian.

The expressions on Wang Jian's face began changing as different emotions came out. Not a single one of the expressions was the same as they continued to change for a minute before his face finally relaxed and returned to normal.

His eyes closed and it was like he was in a trance, almost as if he was sleeping while standing.

After another minute of this, there was no change at all.

When they turned to look at the transparent figure, they saw that he was doing the same thing as Wang Jian. He was just floating there with his eyes closed and a relaxed look on his face.

The beast standing behind it had clearly seen this as well, but it just stood there with a smile on its face as it watched Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen.

This stalemate continued for another three more minutes before there was finally a reaction that came from Wang Jian.

Starting from the golden diamond that had been on his forehead the entire time, there was a golden glow that spread from it all across his body. It started from his forehead and continued down his body until it completely covered him in that golden glow.

Then once he was covered, the golden glow around him became stronger and brighter until he suddenly released it all at once with a single roar.

With that roar, the golden glow scattered around him, but based on his aura, it was clear that he was much stronger compared to before.

Before this, Wang Jian had only just reached the peak Embryo Soul Realm, but in an instant, he was now at the very peak of the Embryo Soul Realm.. It was almost as if he was missing that one last thing to incite him into breaking into the Child Soul Realm.
