This is my first time playing the female lead, what's wrong with the tea and snacks?

"Inheritance? Inheritance is mine!"

"Seize the bronze bell and stop them from inheriting the legacy! Kill!"

As they approached the summit, Cang Xiaolin and Zi Xing, along with other prodigies, began to rush towards it without regard for anything else.

They rushed toward the stone pavilion, defying that invisible pressure.

Su Yu was the fastest, followed closely by Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing.

Following them were Long Zhen, Zi Xing, Cang Xiaolin, and their group.

The higher you go, the greater the pressure you feel at the top of the mountain.

Even Su Yu felt a significant palpitation.

thump—

The bronze bell on the stone pavilion swayed on its own, creating an invisible ripple.

As the bell tolled, a strong sense of palpitation inexplicably rose in Su Yu's heart.

The hairs on the back of my hand suddenly stood up.

This is an emergency response that the Three-Colored Black Demon has developed over many years.

As long as those around it harbor powerful, far greater greed than it does, it will sound an alarm bell in its heart.

As Su Yuyue got closer to the stone pavilion, the feeling of excitement grew stronger and stronger.

"Something's wrong, something very wrong."

"There's something strange about this bronze bell!..."

Su Yu became wary and began to slow down his climbing speed rapidly.

They even eventually retreated downwards.

Until Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing, who were running side by side, caught up with him.

Seeing Su Yu's actions, Ye Xuan looked at him with considerable confusion.

"Brother Su, you were already the closest to the bronze bell, so why did you retreat?"

"The distance is only ten feet, and the path to godhood is within reach..."

They were all climbing the mountain under pressure, and had no energy left for internal strife.

Therefore, they can only rely on their hard power to win the inheritance, so Su Yu naturally has a greater chance.

Su Yu revealed a kind and approachable smile. "I suddenly feel that this inheritance might not be suitable for me..."

"You two should also consider this carefully."

"He might not be a good fit for either of you."

"I have other matters to attend to, so I'll leave now. We can talk another day."

After saying that, Su Yu turned and left without looking back. Her speed was so fast that she left a blur in the invisible barrier of pressure.

"this....."

Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing stopped in their tracks, looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Disciple (Ruqing), get out of here quickly, quickly!"

Inside Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing's bodies, Elder Wu and the Immortal-Slaying Sword seemed to sense something, revealing a rare hint of surprise in their emotions, as if they had encountered something incomprehensible, and immediately spoke up to remind them.

"Teacher, what happened? Could it be that bronze bell?"

"Slaying Immortals, what's going on? Has the bronze bell changed?" Ye Xuan and Ji Ruqing asked in confusion.

"Leave here quickly! This isn't some kind of divine inheritance, it's an path to immortality!"

"What? Become an immortal??"

"Not only that, this entire world is filled with demonic energy, it could even be said to be composed of demonic energy..."

next second.

The world suddenly underwent a tremendous change.

A suppressed bell tolled across the entire sky.

From within the bronze bell, countless streams of black mist spread out, enlarging the entire Lingxiao Mountain.

The once idyllic, paradise-like mountain, once filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, is now stained black and red, revealing its true nature.

This is demonic energy!

At this very moment, the entire Lingxiao Mountain has been transformed into a living hell!

"What's going on? What happened? Why did the world suddenly go dark? What about the legacy??"

"This...this is demonic energy? This Lingxiao Mountain actually possesses such a massive amount of demonic energy!?"

"Isn't this the place of inheritance? How can demonic energy appear here?"

"Something's wrong! Run! Get down the mountain quickly, it's dangerous here!"

Almost all the prodigies noticed something was wrong. They all looked up at the mountaintop in horror and rushed down the mountain in a frenzy.

Su Yu, Ye Xuan, Ji Ruqing and the others had already run away.

"Hahaha~"

"For tens of thousands of years, this path has long been lost."

"I cultivated diligently for fifty thousand years and finally became a true god. After six thousand years of preparation, with lofty ambitions, I transcended the tribulation and became an immortal."

"But Heaven does not grant our wishes; Heaven punishes us and Earth destroys our foundation."

"In a moment of sudden enlightenment, upon waking from my dream, I transformed myself into the Dao, becoming a demon for ten thousand years, thus refining the supreme demonic path!"

Boom!Boom!Boom!

Inside the stone pavilion, the bronze bell had also been stained with black and red energy, and countless demonic energies surged from it, as if it were the source of everything.

The bell tolled, carrying endless malevolence, echoing in everyone's ears.

"Transcending tribulation to become an immortal??"

"Supreme Demonic Path??"

During their escape, everyone was horrified by the aged voice. What he said was utterly incomprehensible.

thump—

The bell rang again.

The bronze bell vibrated more and more violently.

"The legendary Three-Colored Crow Demon!"

"I never imagined that after countless years of arduous enlightenment, I would finally encounter such a fortunate encounter as yours!"

"As long as I refine your demonic essence, I can directly become an immortal and ascend to the upper realm!"

"Come, become my power, and help me ascend to the celestial throne!"

The next second, the bronze bell flew directly to the heavens.

A terrifying pressure descended, causing the frantically fleeing crowd to prostrate themselves on the ground, unable to move.

Demonic energy spread from the bronze bell, transforming into a dark hand that forcibly grabbed Su Yu, who had fled far away, and dragged her back.

"asshole!"

Su Yu gritted her teeth and struggled frantically, but it was all in vain against such a disparity in strength.

He felt a surge of anger.

Becoming an immortal? Making contact with the existence of immortals?

He was actually targeted by something like this?!

After much effort, I finally managed to draw a few cards...

"Slaying Immortals?! What on earth is going on?!"

Seeing Su Yu being taken away, Ji Ruqing felt heavy-hearted and slowed down her flying speed.

He hurriedly asked the Immortal-Slaying Sword:

"Hey~ The Lingxiao Mountain you entered is not a divine mountain that was transformed after failing to transcend tribulation and become a god, but a small world that was separated from a half-immortal after failing to ascend."

"He failed to break through to immortality, his foundation was destroyed, and he developed inner demons, thus falling into the demonic path."

"Then the foundation was rebuilt with demonic energy, and the body, which had been dormant here for 100,000 years, was restored."

"So what level is he at now?"

"A demigod."

"No, he has now completely fallen into demonic possession, and his strength is probably even greater than that of a half-immortal."

"But if he devours that three-colored black demon, he might directly ascend to immortality!"

"Huh? He ascended to immortality? He's completely fallen into demonic possession, yet he can still ascend? And the heavenly lightning won't punish him?" Ji Ruqing asked, puzzled.

How dare someone who has fallen into demonic possession become an immortal? Demonic energy can trigger divine punishment; this is utterly delusional!

"The Three-Colored Black Demon has a very distinctive feature: it does not undergo a tribulation of lightning during its advancement."

"As long as he devours the demon essence of the Three-Colored Black Demon, even if he becomes a demon, he can escape the heavenly punishment and become an immortal. After that, he will be unimpeded on the demonic path. Therefore, this Three-Colored Black Demon is of great importance to him."

"Now what?"

"In this situation, we can only run, but if we let him devour the Three-Colored Black Demon's demon essence, he might become an immortal in ten years, and the entire continent will suffer."

"what should I do?"

"......"

The Immortal Slayer remained silent.

Ji Ruqing's chances of defeating the immortal who seized the essence of the Three-Colored Crow Demon within ten years are probably slim.

Sigh~ Should we go and talk to that old fox?

"Sigh, Immortal Slayer, please lend me your power."

Ji Ruqing's feelings were somewhat complicated. Given his personality, if possible, he did not want to let that demon become an immortal and then deal with him, as this would undoubtedly only increase the difficulty.

The Immortal-Slaying Sword sighed softly. "Even if I lent you my power, you wouldn't be a match for him..."

the other side.

Upon seeing Su Yu being taken away and the sky filled with surging demonic energy, Ye Xuan felt a strange sense of panic rising within him, as if he were about to lose something of utmost importance.

"Disciple, we must save him. We absolutely cannot let him get into trouble with that half-immortal."

"What should I do?"

"I will temporarily take over your body to stop him."

"However, you are now facing a demigod level being. Afterwards, you will suffer extremely severe backlash, and you may be bedridden for three to five years."

"It's good that she's not dead. Come on, teacher." Ye Xuan didn't hesitate. He hadn't gotten revenge on Su Yu yet, so he couldn't let her die like this.

"Alright, gather your thoughts, relax, and leave everything to your master."
