Chapter 3838: The Gate of Inheritance

As the gates of Xuanji Hall opened, the Legacy of an Immortal Emperor-level expert lay before them.

Everyone gathered around could not control their excitement, scrambling to rush inside.

At this moment, within the Yuangu Secret Realm, almost everyone, except for those who had obtained Opportunities elsewhere or had already perished, had gathered here.

Led by Dongfang Daoyuan of Tiandao Sect, and Xifeng Lie and Tan Ge of Guiyuan Sect, the Disciples of these two great Sects were the first to rush through the gates, followed by a swarm of other Disciples from the remaining Three Sects, Five Factions, and Seven Great Families.

In the blink of an eye, only a dozen or so people remained at the entrance; Ye Bufan's group had not moved, nor had Bixia Sect, led by Aoyue Fairy, and others also stood still.

The Qin Family, with Qin Muyue as their leader, although they had not rushed in, their faces were filled with anxiety, a look of impatience.

"Divine Doctor Ye, are we going in?"

Aoyue Fairy turned her head and looked over. She was also a little curious as to why everyone else was scrambling while Ye Bufan remained still.

Ye Bufan frowned slightly, a puzzled expression on his face. He didn't know why, but although the Xuanji Hall before him was clearly full of Spiritual Qi and shining with golden light, he somehow sensed a hint of dark aura.

That's right, it was a dark aura, and specifically, Demonic Qi.

He Cultivated the Chaotic Immortal Art, and his intuition was much keener than others, plus he had dealt with people from the Demonic Path quite a bit.

Normally, one should be excited when facing the Legacy of an Immortal Emperor, but a sense of unease lingered in his heart.

Ye Bufan turned to Aoyue Fairy: "Was Xuanji Emperor a person of the Demonic Path?"

Aoyue Fairy was startled for a moment, then shook her head: "How could that be? Xuanji Emperor was a widely respected righteous Immortal, an Immortal Emperor admired by thousands. How could he be a person of the Demonic Path?"

Qin Muyue added: "That's right, not only was he not, but he personally slew countless powerful Demonic Path experts."

Aoyue Fairy asked doubtfully: "Divine Doctor Ye, why do you ask?"

Although he received a negative answer, Ye Bufan looked at the Xuanji Hall before him, and the unease in his heart did not diminish in the slightest.

"I have a feeling that it will be extremely dangerous inside."

"This…"

Qin Muyue was stunned for a moment, but she had enough trust in Ye Bufan.

"Divine Doctor Ye, do you mean we're not going in?"

Ye Bufan pondered for a moment: "Going in is fine, the fewer people the better. You and Aoyue Fairy can come with me; the others should not enter.

This way, if there's danger, you can handle it, and if there's an Opportunity, your Sects won't miss out."

Originally, he didn't want these two families to enter. Although his intuition had no basis, it was very clear.

However, not letting anyone in would probably be unacceptable to them. Compared to that, the current plan was more easily accepted.

"Alright, I'll listen to Divine Doctor Ye."

Qin Muyue was the first to agree, turning to look at the four Qin Family Disciples behind her.

"I'm enough here; you all should go find other Opportunities elsewhere and don't go in."

"Uh…"

Although the few of them were unwilling in their hearts, they dared not have any false thoughts regarding Qin Muyue's words, so they reluctantly left the place.

On the other side, Aoyue Fairy was the same. Under her command, the four people from Bixia Sect also went to other places to seek Opportunities.

Ye Bufan looked at Wu Qimei beside him, "It might be very dangerous inside. Do you still want to come with me?"

"I do. Otherwise, staying outside is more dangerous. It's safer to follow you."

Wu Qimei made her choice decisively, without any hesitation.

"Alright then, let's go in together."

Ye Bufan's strength was formidable now, and taking care of one person was nothing. So, everyone walked into the hall together.

The five from Lingyun Sword Sect, plus Aoyue Fairy, Qin Muyue, and Wu Qimei, made a total of eight people. Ye Bufan led the way, with the rest following behind.

As they entered, the large door behind them slowly closed.

Everyone was startled for a moment, but their attention was now on the inside of the hall. They all wanted to find treasures and Opportunities, so no one paid attention to whether the door closed or not.

Ye Bufan looked up. Upon entering, they were in a spacious main hall.

It was a hundred meters high, with an area of about three to four hundred square meters. Compared to the castle-like size of the entire palace, this place was not very large, clearly not the entirety.

Several glowing crystals were embedded in the ceiling. Although not particularly bright, they were enough to see the objects inside.

The vast space was completely enclosed; there were no windows, not even pinhole-sized openings.

The entire hall was built from an unknown material, appearing extremely sturdy.

Everyone searched for a long time, but the surroundings were empty. There were no treasures, not even a grain of sand, let alone any Legacy of Xuanji Emperor.

"Welcome to my Xuanji Hall, to receive this old man's Legacy."

Just as everyone was feeling confused, an old voice echoed from above, followed by a faint golden light projection appearing in mid-air.

The figure was very blurry, making it impossible to discern its appearance, but judging from its form, it was consistent with the one outside the hall earlier. It should be a Divine Sense image left by Xuanji Emperor.

The light projection looked down at the crowd below. Although his eyes couldn't be seen, everyone felt as if they were being looked down upon.

"However, there are too many of you. This old man's Legacy is limited; it's impossible to pass it on to so many of you."

When the golden light projection finished speaking, everyone's hearts tightened. They didn't know if they would be chosen by him, or if they would be fortunate enough to receive the Legacy of Xuanji Emperor.

There were sixty to seventy people present, and each one was incredibly tempted.

At this moment, they didn't care about their current strength. Once they could obtain the Legacy of Xuanji Emperor, their Cultivation would surely advance by leaps and bounds.

Figures like Dongfang Daoyuan and Xifeng Lie would not be given a second thought.

It was no exaggeration to say that this was a golden Opportunity to ascend to greatness. Once they obtained the Legacy, they would surely trample others underfoot.

This included Dongfang Daoyuan and Xifeng Lie as well. Although they were both Disciples of the Three Sects, the entire Middle Heaven Region was nothing compared to Xuanji Emperor.

Their Sects' strongest were only at the Immortal Reverent Peak, which was incomparable to an ancient Immortal Emperor Peak.

Under everyone's gaze, the golden light projection continued: "When this old man perished, I had already made plans to select Disciples. To obtain the Legacy, follow my instructions."

After speaking, he waved his hand, and three massive portals appeared on the previously bare wall behind him. The dark openings revealed nothing inside, and even Divine Sense could not penetrate them.

"These are the Legacy Gates I prepared for those who come after. Each gate can accommodate eight people, and then it will close.

I don't care how many of you there are now; only twenty-four will ultimately be able to enter. You yourselves must resolve the remaining issues."

With that, the light projection dissipated, vanishing from mid-air, and the hall returned to its calm state.

Although the surroundings were silent, everyone's hearts became restless.

The Legacy Gates had opened, and they had to enter; they absolutely could not waste such a great Opportunity. However, everyone was eyeing each other like tigers, and no one dared to act rashly.
