Chapter 415: Chapter 254: Immortal Fate_2

But this silhouette seemed to have no consciousness, just floating in the air, motionless.

The others, seeing that the avatar of Tian Lan Immortal Venerable did not respond, were also full of doubt. What was going on?

After the Spirit Box was opened, the avatar left by Tian Lan Immortal Venerable would activate, initiating the test of Immortal Fate. Only those who passed the test could gain Immortal Fate.

At most, one person.

If no one passed the test, then no one could obtain Immortal Fate.

After a while, those thirteen people all felt deeply uneasy.

"Could it be that the opening method was incorrect, and the Immortal Venerable’s test cannot proceed?"

"The lack of response from the Immortal Venerable’s avatar certainly indicates there’s a problem somewhere."

"How could this happen? If we miss this opportunity, we will completely miss out on Immortal Fate."

.....

They began to look at Li Qian with unfriendly eyes.

If it weren’t for Li Qian forcefully opening the Spirit Box, how could this situation have happened?

"Fellow Daoist, you should have let us open the Spirit Box just now."

The young man in the purple robe spoke with a deep coldness in his tone.

"Yes, now that the Immortal Venerable’s test cannot be initiated, Fellow Daoist, what do you suggest we do?"

The young man in the black robe with horns on his head spoke with irritation.

"Gentlemen, you must be mistaken. It was I who first acquired this Spirit Box... How I opened it, and whatever error occurred after opening it, what does that have to do with you?"

Li Qian shook his head and said.

He couldn’t be bothered to deal with these people, his Spiritual Sense falling upon the floating silhouette.

Pure energy, seemingly without sentience.

Suddenly... he recalled that, in the Human World, even a first-level Demon Saint of the Demon Race could project a Demon Thought across space. How much more so for an existence ascended to the Upper Realm?

The avatar left in this Tianlan Immortal Mansion was likely intended to bear the consciousness of Tian Lan Immortal Venerable descending from the Upper Realm.

The lack of response from this avatar was probably because the consciousness of Tian Lan Immortal Venerable could not descend.

The reason...

Li Qian suspected it was related to Chenzhong Cave Heaven.

Otherwise, there would be no way to explain this situation.

After all, this Immortal Venerable avatar resided within the Grotto Heaven.

"It seems, Fellow Daoist, you are very arrogant, intending to stand against the entire Longevity Realm."

The young man in the purple robe sneered.

The thirteen of them, each represented a powerful faction, and even the weakest among them... had a Returning Void extreme expert.

Returning Void extreme represented the peak Longevity Realm at 99 steps of the Return to Void.

Reaching 100 steps would mean Returning Void Perfection.

But Returning Void Perfection experts were very scarce throughout the Longevity Realm.

"Fellow Daoist, you overestimate me. I am a nobody, how dare I oppose the entire Longevity Realm."

Li Qian chuckled lightly, "The Immortal Fate in this Tianlan Immortal Mansion is purely a matter of chance. You all don’t actually think you’re certain to obtain Immortal Fate, do you? This failure simply means you are not destined for this Immortal Fate."

"Hmph, how can we pardon you for spoiling our Immortal Fate."

Suddenly, the young man in the black robe with horns waved his sleeve, sending forth a rush of black energy that turned into a roaring black dragon, surging towards Li Qian with great speed.

The power contained in this strike was something a Longevity Realm expert under fifty steps of the Return to Void could absolutely not withstand.

But just as the black dragon arrived before Li Qian, it instantly collapsed.

The young man in the black robe shuddered, terror reflecting in his pupils.

The opponent hadn’t even moved and yet had dissolved his attack.

Though he hadn’t exerted all his might, the power was nonetheless significant.

Li Qian, seeing the opponent actually attacking, his face grew cold, pondering whether to leave all these people here.

As long as he led them into the Grotto Heaven, their lives and deaths would no longer be theirs to decide.

But then he thought again, these people’s backgrounds were extraordinary, each representing a powerful faction.

If all these people were to perish within Tianlan Immortal Mansion, it would surely cause great trouble.

Moreover, these people might not dare to enter his Grotto Heaven.

Even if they were unaware of the Grotto Heaven’s existence, the Life Secret Realm possessed intense forewarnings.

If he couldn’t ensure to eliminate them all, he shouldn’t act recklessly.

Seeing this scene, the others were all astonished beyond measure.

They all knew the strength of the young man in the black robe.

This person was a Daoist of the Demon Dragon race of the Golden Demon Court, his Cultivation Realm at least over sixty steps in the Return to Void.

Having comprehended Dao Rhythm, crafted a Spiritual Artifact... even a casual strike, without a Cultivation above fifty steps of the Return to Void, was impossible to withstand.

At this moment, the silhouette floating in the air suddenly moved, then looked towards Li Qian.

"Only one person for this test?"

The silhouette seemed to be talking to itself.

Seeing this scene, everyone present was overjoyed.

The avatar of Tian Lan Immortal Venerable finally responded.

But the self-talking words of the silhouette left them all bewildered. What was happening?

How could the Immortal Venerable avatar say there was only one person?

Did it consider them nonexistent?

"Immortal Venerable, we are ready to participate in the test."

The young man in the purple robe hurriedly spoke up.

The others also began to speak, trying to catch the attention of the Immortal Venerable avatar.

But the avatar seemed to become very sluggish, still looking at Li Qian, "Have you prepared for the test?"

It seemed to have a sense of stutter.

Li Qian was surprised. Could this be due to Chenzhong Cave Heaven, causing the avatar of Tian Lan Immortal Venerable to be unable to perceive the existence of others?

"Immortal Venerable, I am ready for the test."

Li Qian nodded immediately.

Upon hearing what Li Qian said, those present immediately became furious.

"Immortal Venerable, we are also here..."

The young man in the purple robe and others could no longer hold back and hurriedly rushed forward.
