“Young Master, are you okay?” Two people entered from the fifth layer, namely Li Kun and the Evil Sect's Young Master. However, their appearance was quite miserable; the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master was so weak that he could barely walk. If it weren't for Li Kun supporting him, he probably wouldn't have made it up to the fifth layer.
“I’m not dead yet!” The Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master struggled to take a few healing pills, which improved his condition slightly. Then they noticed Ren Pingsheng and Madelong attacking the Stone House and the Light Barrier.
“Li Kun, go check if there’s anything in that Stone House. From Madelong's expression, it seems like there’s some treasure.” Even though he was injured, his instincts were still sharp.
“Okay.” Li Kun had noticed this as well and was eager to take a look. He chose one of the Stone Houses.
“Young Master, hurry over! There are so many treasures!” After breaking the Light Barrier, he shouted excitedly.
“All these are treasures? Aren't those two getting more?” Seeing that half of the Stone House was already empty, the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master looked extremely displeased, his eyes filled with greed and jealousy.
“Young Master, let’s attack the Stone House first. Once our injuries recover, we can seek their spoils.” Li Kun, being experienced, knew that both of them were injured. Attacking the Stone House might not be a problem for them, but they definitely wouldn’t be able to match Ren Pingsheng and Madelong.
“Forget it, let’s quickly gather what we can. We can’t fall behind them.” The two hurriedly collected treasures and moved on to the next Stone House.
The four of them worked in harmony, not disturbing each other. They each chose a Stone House and focused on making their fortunes. As they watched, the number of Stone Houses on the fifth layer dwindled. Another person entered from the fifth layer; it was someone who had come with Madelong. However, where there had been two before, now only one remained.
After resting for a moment, he noticed something unusual among everyone and hurried over to choose a Stone House. To his shock, he found that there were only six Stone Houses left.
“Damn it, is this happening again?” With an angry shout, Madelong battled a Demon Beast. He managed to obtain treasures from the Stone House. Not only him; even Ren Pingsheng encountered several such situations. Li Kun and his companion faced two encounters as well and sustained significant injuries.
The newly arrived disciple of the Evil Sect, when rushing toward the second Stone House, found that all the Stone Houses had been divided up. Unfortunately for him, as soon as he opened a Stone House, he was attacked by a Demon Beast. Caught off guard, he suffered serious injuries but eventually managed to defeat it.
After sweeping clean the treasures from the last remaining Stone House, Ren Pingsheng did not hesitate at all; he immediately dashed toward the entrance of the Sixth Layer. It seemed that the trial was nearly over; what awaited next were treasures and heritage.
“Where do you think you’re running off to?” As Madelong exited the Stone House, he saw that Ren Pingsheng had already entered the entrance to the Sixth Layer. With an angry roar, he chased after him.
“Young Master, we should pursue this as well; there are likely many treasures up there,” Li Kun exclaimed, his eyes reddening at the thought of their recent gains. They had just acquired eight Stone Houses, which had already left them in shock. The thought of more treasures above was unbearable.
The Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master also felt envious of Ren Pingsheng and Madelong's gains and rushed towards the Sixth Layer without hesitation. As for the disciple of the Evil Sect who had survived two Stone Houses, he charged toward the Sixth Layer like a madman.
“Could this be…” Ren Pingsheng, the first to enter the Sixth Layer, was momentarily stunned by what he saw. The Hall of the Sixth Layer was empty, except for a statue standing in the center, towering ten zhang high. It depicted a dashing young man, particularly with eyes that sparkled like stars, seemingly able to see straight into one's heart.
“This must be the master of this Inheritance Tower!” Ren Pingsheng observed the statue closely; the craftsmanship was impeccable, almost lifelike. A regal aura emanated from it, lingering even after a hundred thousand years.
Ren Pingsheng's gaze was fixed on what the statue held in its hands—two items wrapped in a Light Barrier, obscured from view. However, there was an eighty percent chance they were related to Heritage.
Without hesitation, he moved to seize them; this was his purpose for entering the King-Level Inheritance. He flashed above the statue, but just as he reached out, a Sword Qi interrupted him.
“Hey, kid, do you think you can lay your hands on this?” A figure attacked from behind—it was Madelong. His speed was not slow either, only a few breaths behind Ren Pingsheng.
Ren Pingsheng remained silent as he looked at him; he knew that obtaining the Heritage would not be easy. If he didn’t deal with this person, it would only lead to more trouble.
“If you’re smart, hand over your treasures and leave; I might let you go,” he said with a smile, exuding confidence.
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Kun, the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master, and another disciple of the Evil Sect entered the Sixth Layer almost simultaneously. Their eyes scanned the room and quickly focused on what was in the statue's hands.
They all had the same thought: the Heritage, that was the King-Level Inheritance. Their gazes turned hostile towards one another; everyone wanted to obtain the Heritage, making each other rivals.
“I say, Young Master, four out of five people here are from our Evil Sect. Shouldn’t we eliminate this outsider first?” Madelong said with a playful smile.
“Agreed, but we’ll split whatever he has equally among us,” replied the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master. He harbored some resentment towards Ren Pingsheng, considering him a competitor; getting rid of one rival would be beneficial. The four of them slowly surrounded Ren Pingsheng as if they had planned it together.
“Kid, this time you have nowhere to escape! We’ll settle our scores from last time,” said the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master menacingly.
"Hey, is that so? Just in time, I have some matters to settle as well. You all better be prepared," Ren Pingsheng said with a light laugh, glancing at Li Kun.
"You stubborn duck, do you think you still have a chance? Attack!" he roared, and the four of them moved simultaneously. The lowest cultivation level among them was a high-level Martial Master, and two of them were Perfected Realm Martial Artists. However, Ren Pingsheng showed no fear; these people were ultimately not the top-tier experts.
His eyes narrowed, and his figure became blurry as dozens of phantoms moved in different directions—some fleeing, others attacking. The four were momentarily stunned, and Ren Pingsheng's sword moved like Azure Wind, already slicing towards Li Kun. His target was to eliminate Li Kun first.
Li Kun instinctively sensed a flash before him, and then a Sword Qi appeared right in front of him, startling him. He raised his longsword to deflect it, shattering the Sword Qi while retreating. At that moment, a figure appeared strangely behind him, the longsword silent as it lunged toward him.
Just as Li Kun was breathing a sigh of relief, he noticed something unusual behind him. Reacting quickly, he slashed back with his longsword and rolled to the side, not caring about his image. Although he avoided the attack, he felt a dull ache in his chest from the impact. Just as he was about to get up from the shock, a flash of light zipped past him like lightning. Instinctively raising his hand to block it, he felt his arm pierced through; then pain shot through his heart as he was sent flying.
In just two breaths' time, the other three finally reacted. Seeing Li Kun's uncertain fate, the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master immediately became furious and charged at Ren Pingsheng along with another disciple of the Evil Sect.
As for Madelong, he swung his sword to unleash a terrifying Sword Qi that locked onto Ren Pingsheng from afar. Then he retreated swiftly and reached the statue, reaching out to grab the two Light Barriers held by the statue.
"Ah, damn it! Despicable!" The two attacking Ren Pingsheng turned upon hearing movement behind them and saw this scene; they bared their teeth in anger. That was the King-Level Inheritance they had been desperately pursuing. Forgetting about Ren Pingsheng, they turned to attack Madelong on the statue.
"Haha, the Heritage is mine!" he laughed arrogantly, firmly grasping the two Light Barriers and pulling them directly from the statue's hands.
Ren Pingsheng looked at the already dead Li Kun and collected the Spatial Bracelet from him before turning towards the statue. He could not let others obtain the Heritage; he had to get it for himself.
"You overestimate yourself; get lost!" Madelong didn't have time to look at what he held; with a sweep of his longsword, he blocked the attacks from the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master and his companion. Since he could become Elder Brother of the Evil Sect, his strength was naturally formidable; with just one sword strike, he pushed both back. Turning to leave now that he had obtained the Heritage left him with no lingering attachments.
"Where do you think you're going? Leave it behind!" Ren Pingsheng moved swiftly to block his path. With a gentle point of his Azure Wind Sword, dozens of sword shadows shot out simultaneously.
"Bang... Damn it!" Madelong refused to back down and blocked fiercely but was forced back nonetheless. Just now, Ren Pingsheng had shown no mercy; being intercepted made him even more wary of Ren Pingsheng.
"You won't escape; the Heritage is mine." The Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master charged forward again from behind with a fierce expression, attacking recklessly.
"Damn it, you all go die!" He shouted angrily as True Qi surged over the Longsword, flames billowing throughout most of the Sixth Layer. Waves of Sword Qi, powerful as dragons, slashed toward the three.
The Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master and the Disciples of the Evil Sect were directly sent flying, blood spraying everywhere. Ren Pingsheng, however, remained undaunted, his figure flickering as he shattered the incoming Sword Qi. Then, with a sweep of the Azure Wind Sword, countless gusts of wind howled, sweeping away all the fiery Sword Qi before he turned and charged at Madelong.
"Damn it, how is this guy so strong!" He still held two objects in his left hand while continuously swinging the Longsword with his right, trying to block the onslaught of wind.
Ren Pingsheng seized the opportunity, darting to his side and slashing out with his sword. It struck Madelong's left hand, causing the two objects wrapped in Light Barriers to fly out.
"Ah... my Heritage, that's mine." At the last moment, he surprisingly steadied himself and halted his retreating body, snatching one of the light orbs.
Ren Pingsheng used the Azure Wind Sword to catch the other light orb in his hand, completely disregarding the predatory gazes of the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master and the other disciple, not to mention Madelong's ravenous eyes. True Qi surged continuously as the Light Barrier shattered after several collisions with a loud bang.
The three stared intently, eager to see if it was indeed the so-called Heritage, their auras surging as they prepared to strike at any moment.
"Damn it, it's not Heritage!" After the Light Barrier broke, Ren Pingsheng's expression darkened. What appeared was a blue token, slightly larger than the Sword King Order; this was definitely not Heritage.
"Haha, this Heritage is still mine!" From a distance, Madelong laughed triumphantly upon seeing this. Since Ren Pingsheng did not obtain Heritage, then what he held must surely be it.
At this point, he had already approached the exit. After laughing, he turned and fled from the Sixth Layer.
"Where do you think you're going? Leave the Heritage behind!" The Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master and another disciple pursued him fiercely without even glancing at Ren Pingsheng. In their eyes, there was only Heritage.
