Chapter 193: Chapter 194: Emperor of Fertility (4th Update) (Please Favorite, Tip, and Recommend)

"Emperor of Fertility..."

At the moment when the elder appeared, everyone involuntarily swallowed.

His demeanor alone was almost enough to recognize his identity.

Emperor of Fertility.

Only the founding monarch of the Martial Triumph Kingdom could possess such an esteemed air.

Even if the current king of the Martial Triumph Kingdom were to come here, he couldn’t possibly compare to this elder.

In the entire history of the Martial Triumph Kingdom, only he, the founding monarch, would have such a demeanor.

"What’s going on?"

"Could it be that the Emperor of Fertility is not dead?"

"What exactly is this tomb and inheritance about then?"

Among the crowd, voices of astonishment kept arising.

The Emperor of Fertility had fallen a thousand years ago, a fact known to everyone in the Martial Triumph Kingdom, and they had come to this tomb for that very reason.

They were here to obtain the legacy of the Emperor of Fertility.

But now, the Emperor of Fertility had appeared, so what exactly was going on?

Among those present, only Chu Fengmian remained extremely calm.

Because he had already realized that the Emperor of Fertility before him was not actually a living person, but rather a spirit or a phantom left behind, similar to Qing Luan!

Ordinary saints were indeed capable of leaving behind a phantom indistinguishable from a real person, but such phantoms could last only a few minutes.

However, the phantom of the Emperor of Fertility before them had existed for a whole thousand years, a testament to terrifying power.

The power of the Emperor of Fertility was far more fearsome than anyone had imagined.

"The king has long perished; what stands before you now is merely a phantom I left behind,"

said the Emperor of Fertility standing at the head of the bridge, hearing the people’s discussions, and spoke calmly.

"A phantom!"

"What! The Emperor of Fertility before us is merely a phantom?" exclaimed Yan Nan and Fang Poxuan, both shocked.

"A phantom’s power that rivals that of saints, is this truly achievable by a martial artist?"

Everyone could feel a power emanating from the phantom of the Emperor of Fertility, a strength that towered above all present.

All those present were near the pinnacle of Riding the Wind Realm and naturally understood what this level of power represented.

Divine Power Realm, saints.

The strength of this phantom alone was comparable to that of the saints; how terrifying must have been the power of the Emperor of Fertility when he was alive!

To think that such a terrifying entity left behind an inheritance made everyone’s eyes blaze with intense desire.

Whoever could obtain the legacy of the Emperor of Fertility would be able to reign supreme over the entire Martial Triumph Kingdom.

"The examination I’ve left behind is simple,"

said the Emperor of Fertility, pointing to the stone bridge beneath his feet.

"This stone bridge before you is the first test."

"Whoever can cross this bridge will have passed my test and may choose any one item from my treasure."

Crossing the bridge.

The stone bridge under the feet of the Emperor of Fertility seemed at most a hundred paces long, a distance they, as martial artists, could cross in an instant.

But everyone present knew that the test would not be so straightforward.

There must be a mystery to this bridge.

The tests left by the Emperor of Fertility were never easy to complete; even though this was only the first one, everyone was extremely cautious.

"Once you step onto the bridge, it could mean life or death; consider carefully."

"I will wait for you at the next test and hope you do not disappoint me."

The Emperor of Fertility spoke his final words and then his figure disappeared on the stone bridge, leaving only the stone bridge behind.

"Dangerous? How could such a trial not be dangerous?"

The Saint Heir gazed at the stone bridge and snorted coldly.

"I’ll go ahead!"

With a sudden leap, he stepped onto the stone bridge. The moment the Saint Heir set foot on the bridge, his figure also disappeared.

Everyone present could no longer sense the Saint Heir’s presence, as if he had vanished without a trace.

"This stone bridge indeed has some mysteries."

Seeing this scene, everyone felt unsurprised.

"If you fear danger, why practice Martial Arts at all? I’m going too!"

Yan Nan snorted coldly and with a move, he also leaped onto the stone bridge.

Chu Ning and Cheng Tiangong followed closely behind, stepping onto the bridge as well.

All the martial artists who were able to reach this place were the super geniuses of the martial nation, the best among the younger generation. None of them would ever fear such dangers.

Soon, everyone jumped onto the stone bridge, leaving only Chu Fengmian and Han Yueli behind.

"You should go too."

Han Yueli looked at Chu Fengmian, speaking softly.

She had now lost her Spiritual Power and naturally could not participate in the trial. Being able to reach the site of the trial, it was also Chu Fengmian who had brought Han Yueli along.

Among the crowd, she was the only one unable to participate.

Now, leaving Han Yueli alone here who had lost her Spiritual Power, she was likely to encounter danger.

That was precisely why Chu Fengmian hesitated for a moment, still not stepping onto the stone bridge. He wasn’t worried about the danger of the trial; he was only concerned about Han Yueli’s safety now.

"Elder."

Chu Fengmian looked towards the edge of the stone bridge and suddenly spoke.

"This junior has a request; I hope the elder can accommodate."

"Can you see this king’s figure?"

After a long time, a voice suddenly came from the edge of the stone bridge.

The Emperor of Fertility appeared, looking at Chu Fengmian with interest.

He had just said he was leaving but had concealed his figure and was observing from the side.

His hidden figure, even if some saints were to come, they would not be able to see through it. Yet, now it was noticed by Chu Fengmian.

This made the Emperor of Fertility somewhat curious about Chu Fengmian, the one who had obtained his Fertility Monument.

"What is your request?"

The Emperor of Fertility spoke calmly.

"Even though you possess the Fertility Monument, if you think you can directly receive the inheritance, that’s impossible."

"The inheritance of this king must be obtained through a trial, just the same for you."

Chu Fengmian respectfully said.

"I hope the elder can protect her safety during this period."

"You..."

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Han Yueli’s eyes widened, somewhat incredulous.

She couldn’t believe that Chu Fengmian was requesting the Emperor of Fertility for her sake.

Knowing that if the Emperor of Fertility were just slightly displeased, Chu Fengmian might never receive the Emperor’s inheritance, and might even be directly killed by the Emperor.

The stronger the individual, the more capricious they are; such accidents are not impossible.

"Oh? Your reluctance to ascend the stone bridge is also because of her, isn’t it?"

The Emperor of Fertility glanced at Chu Fengmian and suddenly laughed.

"I didn’t expect you to ask this of me. Well, seeing that you have seen through this king’s figure, this time I shall agree to your request."
