Step forward, draw the sword!

Pei Jinye took a step forward, and blade light erupted fiercely!

At this moment, half of the entrance was dazzled by the bright sword light.

“Boom!”

The man in beast skin clenched his fist, a punch with flames attached vibrated from his fist, forcibly withstanding Pei Jinye’s strike, but his feet sunk three inches deep into the ground due to the tremendous shock.

The man in beast skin narrowed his eyes, his scorn swept away and replaced with an expression of gravity.

At that moment, the ground beneath Pei Jinye’s feet burst open violently, and with a cold gleam, he shot towards his opponent like a cannonball.

In the blink of an eye, the man in beast skin realized Pei Jinye’s swordsmanship.

“Bang!”

At the entrance, it sounded like a muffled thunder explosion.

Almost instantly, the figure of the man in beast skin staggered back.

Just as Pei Jinye was about to unleash the third strike, the man in beast skin suddenly said, “You can go in, continue fighting, and neither of us will benefit.”

After speaking, he smiled while waiting for Pei Jinye’s response.

He was ninety-nine percent confident that the mysterious swordsman would cease and desist.

Unfortunately…

He was wrong.

In the brief exchange of two strikes, Pei Jinye had already identified his opponent’s weakness through modeling!

The man in beast skin’s complexion changed because Pei Jinye had already charged in front of him.

Three Dimensional Barrier activated!

The sword light slashed down.

One strike, two strikes, three strikes!

“Swipe!”

In the moment he sheathed the sword.

Pei Jinye placed his hand on the opponent’s face.

He charged through all the way.

In the midst of the explosive sound, an unfeeling voice came faintly.

“Into the dream!”

On the attribute panel, a line of text slowly emerged.

New Extraordinary-Human Genes: [Element: Flame]!

…

After entering the inner entrance, Pei Jinye found it full of winding paths, making it impossible to determine which road led to the true inheritance path.

Pei Jinye gestured, and dozens of birds flew in, marked with Psychic Imprints, and soon Pei Jinye obtained the information he wanted.

He followed the path, and the deeper he went, the more solemn Pei Jinye’s expression became.

For on this path, he had already seen more than one corpse… human corpses and the corpses of strange and bizarre beasts.

The manner of death was exceedingly brutal!

The Bluebird flew back and forth, leading Pei Jinye to a mountain wall.

There was no path ahead.

However, many characters appeared on the mountain wall.

It wasn’t modern script, but similar to the ancient text in Pei Jinye’s memory.

He read awkwardly through the entire text.

The main gist was about the life of a Martial Arts powerhouse, with a final call to the fated individual who received his legacy not to disappoint…

Disappoint what?

Pei Jinye stared at the last erased line of text, giving it some thought.

Then he stretched his hand onto the wall and release his strength abruptly.

The wall before him collapsed with a loud bang, revealing a palace within the gaping hole, fit for a Cave Heaven.

In the center of the palace was a Lotus Platform with a light orb suspended above it.

As he stepped through the hole into the palace, Pei Jinye felt an energy suddenly envelop him.

His expression changed slightly.

All his Transcendent attributes were in a state of being blocked on the attribute panel!

“This place is tricky!”

Pei Jinye decisively retreated, attempting to leave, but to his surprise, he found an invisible light shield sealing the area, making it impossible to exit.

Narrowing his eyes.

Pei Jinye looked at the light orb on the Lotus Platform ten meters away.

With no way to retreat, he had no choice but to push forward!

Pei Jinye sprinted towards it.

Suddenly, his figure darted aside.

A Hidden Weapon was thrown, hitting the Lotus Platform in the instant Pei Jinye sidestepped, letting out a “cling clang” as the sparks flew but leaving no damage to the Platform.

Pei Jinye did not even glance at the assailant, continuing his charge towards the Lotus Platform.

“Seeking death!” The person at the entrance shouted in shock and rage, hurling two sets of Poison Darts once more.

Although this damned place could limit Transcendents, martial Techniques were still usable.

Pei Jinye drew his sword with a backhand strike.

The oncoming Poison Darts were cut down.

And at that moment, he appeared before the Lotus Platform.

Without waiting to reach out.

Suddenly, a woman clad in silver Armor rushed ahead of him, stepping onto the Lotus Platform only to scream out in pain as a ghostly fire burst from under her feet and quickly spread over her entire body.

This scene caused both onlookers, including Pei Jinye, to freeze, simultaneously ceasing their actions.

Pei Jinye inwardly breathed a sigh of relief, lucky that the woman was a step faster than him, or else, he might have been the one to perish right then and there.

This cursed place restricted Transcendents, which meant that the ability of Death Replay naturally couldn’t be used.

“You don’t run away?”

At the entrance, a tall and thin man in loose ordinary clothes, his face donned a sly smile.

Pei Jinye returned the attack with a ruthless sword slash.

The man’s expression changed.

A volley of more than a dozen Poison Darts was thrown.

Yet, they were overwhelmed by the sword light, forcing him back step by step; he yelled fiercely but was kicked by Pei Jinye towards the Lotus Platform, narrowly avoiding it in mid-air, scrambling like a dog paddle to avoid landing on it, ultimately tumbling to the ground in a sorry state.

“You continue to bark, why don’t you.”

This time, it was Pei Jinye’s turn to mock.

The man’s expression turned hideously sour.

Had it not been for several unwelcome guests arriving at the entrance, he would never have been hit by that sword strike.

“How have the people of Nagano also come to Mist Mountain? Your dogs’ noses are indeed sensitive,” the tall, thin man turned his attention to the newcomers, quickly dismissing Pei Jinye to stand on guard against them.

A man and a woman stood at the entrance.

The young man was tall and muscular, while the woman beside him, clad in a black satin long gown, her noble and pretty face so cold that it was daunting, made an intimidating sight.
