Chapter 225 (2/2)

Hearing what the old man said, everyone present also looked at the golden figure in shock. If this person who had suddenly appeared was truly the Melancholic Monarch, then would this Divine level expert not have lived for over two hundred years?

A hair standing feeling arose within everyone, but that golden figure did not appear to mind that. He merely looked at Fang Xingjian, who had been surrounded by six circles of light, and then smiled and nodded, satisfaction written all over his face.

He then looked at the other examinees, who were comprehending the Pantheon Monument, and broke into a smile.

His mouth moved very slightly, but no voice came out. It was as though he wanted to say something but could not do so.

In the next moment, the entire golden figure burst out and became rays of light, shooting out toward the people present.

Everyone wanted to dodge, but how could they be faster than light? The light beams shot into their bodies.

However, this was not an attack but a gift.

Hoult, Anderson, Manny and Rota were pierced by the light beams, and the moment they were hit, various images started to appear in their consciousness. Their talents, which were outstanding to begin with, were all unleashed completely.

This light beam seemed to have the ability to unleash the potential hidden deep in the human body. In that instant, a hint of inspiration appeared in their brains. It was an inspiration to attain Heaven’s Perception.

Rota clenched her fists in disbelief. Her brain was circulating, and she could feel that there seemed to be voices in the surroundings, trying to speak to her.

“This is… the inspiration for attaining Heaven’s Perception? I feel like I’m only a step away from attaining Heaven’s Perception.”

The same feeling rose from within Hoult, Anderson and Manny.

The old man, who guarded the monument, sighed, “Seems like this is the last message the Melancholic Monarch left behind in the Pantheon Monument. When someone uncovers all the mysteries behind the Pantheon Monument, this message will appear and help the few people among those present who have the greatest potential to attain Heaven’s Perception.”

He swept a glance at the remaining examinees, but the meaning behind his words was very clear.

It was obvious that other than Hoult, Anderson, Manny and Rota, as well as Wei Leng who had attained Heaven’s Perception, the other examinee’s potential were not regarded by the Melancholic Monarch. They could not even attain Heaven’s Perception.

Hearing these words, David was overcome by anger.

“Why?! Why did the Melancholic Monarch not choose me?! Putting aside Anderson and Hoult, since one of them is the Shadow Death God while the other is the grand disciple of the Astral Ancestor… What is the deal with the other two? How are they in the position to compete with me?!”

However, at the next moment, as he looked at Fang Xingjian who was surrounded by six circles of light, David felt as though someone had poured a bucket of cold water over his head, causing him to feel ice-cold all the way to his heart.

To think that Fang Xingjian had comprehended seven levels of mysteries hidden behind the Pantheon Monument and had completely resolved it… This made him feel a great sense of loss and despair.

The old man walked up to Fang Xingjian and saw that he was landing slowly from midair. All six of the circles of light behind him shattered.

The old man looked at Fang Xingjian earnestly and asked, “What did you comprehend? What kind of skill is it? Is it the Melancholic Monarch’s legacy?”

Everyone else turned over to look at Fang Xingjian too. They were clearly extremely curious to find out what Fang Xingjian had comprehended. The all-powerful Melancholic Monarch from two hundred years back, who had founded the Empire with seven other Divine level experts and had also founded the Regional Academy, and then created the Pantheon Monument… What kind of legacy had he left behind in the Pantheon Monument?

Who would not be curious? Who would not be agitated?

However, meeting their curious gazes, Fang Xingjian cast a glance at his Stats Window and asked, “Must I say it?”
