Chapter 220: Palace of Inheritances (2/2)
This place is controlled by the powerful beings of unknown origins.
We don't know anything about them, but they are far more powerful any existence we have seen before.
This island appeared approximately three years ago.
And there is a powerful being guarding this cave entrance.
He summoned the Head of the temple here and asked us for the help in gathering you all.
This place is not under the jurisdiction of the thunder god temple. We are just helping that person to do their job, so after entering the place, it is all on you.
That person will take it from there and explain what to do.
Now, you guys can enter the cave.
But the entry will be done one by one in a particular order with a gap of five minutes interval.
Now, the people with the four golden stars step forward.”
Sam stepped and two other people from the thunder god temple also stepped forward. They are Arman and Arthur.
The other elders were surprised and so were the two candidates.
Moriya was the only nonchalant person.
”You will be the first batch to enter.”
He gestured them to enter the cave.
Sam and the remaining two entered the cave and they could only see a dark path, but after walking for two minutes, they suddenly found themselves in a hall, where there is platform on which an old man is standing.
He has a long beard and wore loose white robes. His long hair and beard are white in colour giving him an ethereal look.
”Welcome to the Palace of Inheritance, you must be the first batch.
You can call me Avatar Sanchez and I am the guardian and the guide of the Palace of Inheritance.
Before you ask me any questions, let me explain why you are here.
The Palace of Inheritance is a boon bestowed upon you by heavens. This place is here for your generation to train and improve by inheriting the legacies of your ancestors, deities and many more powerful figures who you might not even know.
You have one month inside the Palace of Inheritances and in this Palace, there are many places for you to visit.
Each room of this palace will connect you to a different space where you would be tested, evaluated and if performed well, bestowed with the skills, cultivation techniques, battle techniques, weapons, pills, potions, herbs, artifacts and many more.
Some of the rooms contain wills of some experts in their own right who will be giving you pointers.
In this one month, you can visit as many rooms as you can and obtain as many places as you can.
Some, rooms are tests which will train and temper your will, resolve, energy usage and many others and those rooms will have rankings displayed outside of the room on a board.
And you might meet other candidates from different location of this planet as there are other candidates who will also enter this palace through different entrance.
The tests might kill you, but the more danger it has the precious the reward will be.
As you guys are the first batch of the candidates, you have access to all six floors of the palace. The higher the floor the higher the reward. Do take care and in one month you will be summoned back to the hall no matter which room you are in and I will send you out personally.
So, any questions?”
The old man spoke in a single breath explaining everything, he almost explained everything, that there are almost no questions and Sam also have something else to focus about and that is there has been a burning pain on back.
If not for his tempering with the laser and fire element, he wouldn't be able to endure it. He looked at Arthur and Arman to see if they are feeling any pain.
He didn't see any difference in Arthur's expression, but Arman is sweating profusely which aroused his doubt.
”If you have no questions, then proceed towards the steps. Each floor has five rooms and each of them will test you on different things.
By the way, the rooms which gives objects and skills as rewards they will only be awarded by the end of the month and the rewards will be based on the ranking you obtain among all the candidates from the planet.”
Sam exchanged a look with the two candidates and proceeded towards the steps while simultaneously observing his back.
The sight stunned him. The back of his skin now has a big tattoo covering the whole back.
It was a huge circle in which there are symbols of various mythical beasts circling around a spherical object.
The first thing he did after observing it was activating a concealment formation which was inscribed on the feather coat to make sure that the other candidates wouldn't see it and proceeded to enter the first floor.
