”No wonder no one came in for so many years.” Seeing this, Ye Xingchen understood.

Those with Ninth Level of Body Refinement could come in, but not many people dared to. Warriors with Postnatal Stage or higher, however, had Inhibition s that could not come in.

The two altars here, the black one was the altar of death, and the black one was the altar of death. The white one was the altar of life, and stepping onto the altar of life, there was no danger of death, but he would be trapped here forever, unless he could break through to the Grandmaster Stage Realm.

Ye Xingchen was startled, so the two altars were for people to choose, then which altar should they choose?

However, if they entered the altar of life, they would be trapped inside, and unless they reached Grandmaster Stage, it would not be so easy to break through.

There were even Grandfather Ye Yuanshan, who had a few Congenital Stage s. He had not been able to break through to the Grandmaster Stage realm in all these years.

Ye Xingchen did not want to be trapped here. There were many things he had yet to do.

”Choose the death altar.” Ye Xingchen instantly made the decision to choose the death altar.

When Ye Xingchen stepped onto the altar of death, it released a black light, instantly enveloping Ye Xingchen's body.

When Ye Xingchen woke up, he found himself in an unfamiliar place. This place was different from the previous place.

Ye Xingchen was curious, didn't he choose the altar of death? Why wasn't there any danger? Didn't they say that there was a slim chance of survival?

Just as Ye Xingchen was pondering, a black clothed man appeared out of thin air.

Ye Xingchen used the Spiritual Strength to probe but he was actually unable to detect anything.

”Wait, why is there no aura?” Ye Xingchen suddenly sensed something, ”Could it be a puppet?”

”That's right, I'm just a puppet under Master's command. After so many years, I've finally seen someone enter.” The Black Puppet's deep voice started to affect.

Ye Xingchen was extremely shocked. He had heard of puppets before, but to refine puppets, one needed to have an extremely high realm and then have a lot of resources in order to refine puppets. One could imagine, the owner of this puppet must be an extremely powerful existence.

My master is an ancient Ranker, Sword Saint Jian Jingtian. However, my master has experienced an ancient calamity and has completely fallen. Before my master passed away, he specially refined me and poured a trace of my true spirit into me. The Black Puppet said, ”To be able to enter the Core Region, means that they have extraordinary potential. Otherwise, even if it's someone of the Ninth Level of Body Refinement, they wouldn't be able to break through my master's Inhibition.

Ye Xingchen was extremely shocked. To think that such a mysterious core of Ghost Valley would actually be a place where Great Expert s would choose their disciples.

”Actually, the trial of the goat trail is a test of patience. It is an honor for you to pass the first trial, then enter the second trial, which is the altar test, the altar test, and in reality, it is a test of courage. If a person doesn't even have the courage to seek fortune in danger, and only wants to live a peaceful life, then he doesn't deserve to be my master's successor.”

”Over the years, twenty-three people have entered the Core Region, and fifteen people have failed on the small path. Seven people have failed on the altar.”

”What about the other one?” Ye Xingchen suddenly asked.

”That's you.” The Black Puppet said, ”Those who choose the white altar all die after entering. Those who choose the white altar all die without a doubt, and that is the true altar of death. Those who choose the altar of death are all transported here.”

Ye Xingchen was a little afraid, at least he had chosen the altar of death, but then he thought, since he was teleported here, there should be other obstacles, right?

The third stage is the strength stage. After this stage is over, you can go to my master's corpse and come out. If you can get the approval of my master, then you can get all of my master's inheritance, and you can also get all of the treasures here. The Black Puppet said in a low voice, without the slightest bit of emotion.

”Strength? This Sword Saint is so strong, the test I set up will definitely not be simple. I am only using my Sixth Level of Body Refinement right now, so it shouldn't be easy to pass it right? ” Ye Xingchen pondered.

”With your current strength, there's no possibility of winning the third round. Now, you have two choices: go back and cultivate. When your strength reaches the peak of the Ninth Level of Body Refinement, come in. The second is to forcefully charge in.”

”I choose the first one, but should I enter through the altar next time?” Ye Xingchen asked softly.

”This is a message glyph. The next time you enter the Core Region, you can immediately break the message glyph and come here. Remember to not break through to the Postnatal Stage, or else you won't be able to enter at all.” After he finished speaking, the Black Puppet gave Ye Xingchen a pentagram talisman, and disappeared into thin air.

The instant Ye Xingchen received the message talisman, he disappeared from the Core Region and reappeared in the inner circle.

”After so many years, we have finally met a single person. Hahaha, master's wish can finally be fulfilled.” The Black Puppet's voice came from the Core Region, but Ye Xingchen could no longer hear it.

When Ye Xingchen appeared in the inner circle, he suddenly saw Xiao Shi who was waiting for him.

”Little lion …” Ye Xingchen called out and Xiao Shi pounced into Ye Xingchen's embrace.

”Come, Lion, let's go back.” Ye Xingchen brought Little Lion and walked toward the Heavenly River Town.
