Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

"We can go to the inheritance site now," Princess Xidie said softly at that moment.

The inheritance site was also a kind of fortune that could be ranked alongside the Dragon Transformation Pool in front of everyone, within the ancient grounds of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty.

For the founding ancestor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty had obtained his cultivation technique, the Emperor's Extreme World-Shaking Secret, from the inheritance site.

Every time the ancient grounds were opened, many monstrous geniuses would obtain a powerful cultivation technique from the inheritance site, which was extremely compatible with them.

Moreover, the ancient ancestor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty had left opportunities there, and every time the ancient grounds were opened, the royal descendants of the dynasty could gain significant benefits.

However, only two individuals could gain such opportunities each time it was opened.

"Inheritance site!" At this moment, upon hearing these three words, Gu Chen also couldn't help but become somewhat excited.

He knew that the chance for the transformation of the Emperor Extreme World-Shaking Secret was within the inheritance site!

The eldest prince and the second prince were also extremely solemn at this moment; after exchanging a glance, they were ready to join forces.

After the situation here had settled down, the battle for the second batch to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool ensued.

But it had nothing to do with Gu Chen and others anymore; they headed directly for the inheritance site.

It was a massive palace radiating a heavy majesty, with strands of chaotic energy spreading out, archaic and profound, as if an entire world stood there. Upon gazing deeply, it almost rendered one breathless.

Even Gu Chen felt this way, having such an impression!

He even dared not use his heavenly sight to probe, for he knew that it was not something he could inspect at his level, else he would suffer backlash.

"Inheritance site!"

At this moment, the eyes of both the eldest prince and the second prince heated up as they looked at this ancient hall where, in the past, the ancient ancestor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty had risen from!

Not only that, but even later, this ancestor had left opportunities there specifically to allow the royal family of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty to remain strong through the generations and carry on their legacy!

"There's roughly an hour left before the inheritance site opens," Princess Xidie said softly to Gu Chen.

Although there were no visible prohibitions around the ancient hall, none of those present dared to forcibly enter.

Not to mention the other hazards, just the strands of chaotic energy alone were enough to instantly kill everyone present, including Gu Chen.

Soon, after an hour had passed, the situation at the Dragon Transformation Pool began to calm down too, and followers of the eldest prince, the second prince, and other cultivators gradually arrived here.

Boom!

Suddenly, the ground shook, and the archaic and profound hall stirred as its doors abruptly opened. Whoever entered first could gain the fortune within.

"Go!"

Upon seeing this, the eldest prince and the second prince's expressions tensed, and they contemplated rushing inside together.

Although the fortune to be gained was not related to the order of entry, only two individuals could obtain what the ancient ancestor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty had left behind with each opening of the ancient ground!

Therefore, only the earliest arrivals from the royal family could gain that opportunity, and naturally, neither the eldest nor the second prince was willing to yield.

At the same time, as soon as the two of them made a move, a group of their followers also carefully watched everyone else, fearing any sudden moves.

Whoosh!

At that moment, the ninth prince's figure dashed forward, eager to claim one of the two quotas of the ancient ancestor's legacy for himself!

"Little brother, this time, you should just obediently watch from outside," called out the eldest prince.

The crown prince and the second prince, seeing the ninth prince charging towards them, gave a faint smile, extremely confident. Together, they struck out with a palm, and a golden dragon roared as it barreled toward him.

The moment the ninth prince saw this, his eyes suddenly intensified, he bit his teeth slightly. Although he was naturally more talented than the crown prince and the second prince, his age was a factor, and he was also against two adversaries combining their strength, so he found himself outmatched and began to retreat.

"Xidie, I'm coming to help you."

At this moment, Gu Chen, who was standing by Princess Xidie, spoke up, intending to help her be the first to enter the inheritance site and obtain the royal inheritance within!

"Hmm?"

Princess Xidie turned to look at Gu Chen in surprise upon hearing this, clearly very unexpected.

After all, the opportunity left by the ancient ancestor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty was mainly reserved for royal descendants who aspired to become the emperor, and Princess Xidie had never entertained such ambitions, naturally not thinking about taking part in it.

But Gu Chen wasn't concerned with all that, his only thought was to help Princess Xidie attain this opportunity. Whether to become the emperor was a decision he left for Princess Xidie to make.

Whoosh!

The next moment, Gu Chen's figure flashed, and he had already arrived at the entrance of the ancient hall, blocking the crown prince and the second prince who were about to enter.

"Gu Bai, what do you think you're doing?!" Seeing this, their expressions changed instantly.

The crown prince exclaimed, "Why are you blocking the two of us? If you want to enter, then hurry up and seek your own fortune, there's no need to be at odds with us."

Although the inheritance of the ancient hall was not dependent on the order of entry, the inheritance given out each time was limited; it wasn't possible for everyone to receive it.

The second prince's eyebrows furrowed, and a bad premonition began to form in his heart.

"Xidie, could it be that you also wish to compete for the throne?" At this moment, the second prince fiercely turned to Princess Xidie, his face stern, and he asked her sharply.

With this statement, the expressions of both the crown prince and the ninth prince were also filled with surprise, as they turned their gaze toward Princess Xidie.

A female emperor had never before appeared in the history of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty.

But, if Princess Xidie was willing, considering how much the emperor of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty favored her, it wasn't impossible!

At that moment, the sense of crisis in the hearts of the crown prince and the second prince soared!

Princess Xidie said nothing, because she knew that Gu Chen was doing this to help her.

"Considering that you two are Xidie's elder brothers, I don't wish to take action against you, so you should withdraw on your own," Gu Chen said calmly, his expression indifferent.

"You're dreaming!"

The expressions of the crown prince and the second prince changed, voluntarily withdraw? Impossible!

If they did so, wouldn't that indirectly tell others that they were also giving up on the struggle for the throne? What Gu Chen was doing was practically akin to demanding their lives!

"Since you seek death, then we shall fulfill your wish!" The crown prince and the second prince looked utterly cold, their eyes filled with intense murderous intent.

Boom!

The next moment, heaven and earth trembled violently, the void nearly bursting into flames as if a sun had fallen from the distant sky, a terrifying surge of power like a tsunami burst forth, engulfing the heavens and the earth.

"Gu Bai!"

Suddenly, Princess Xidie's pretty face changed, her bright eyes full of worry. She couldn't help but cry out in alarm, and instinctively, she ran towards Gu Chen's location.

All of this occurred because the crown prince and the second prince each had brought out a forbidden artifact, with power comparable to that of a primordial spiritual treasure!

At this moment, the two powerful forbidden artifacts shone brightly, ready to completely engulf Gu Chen and utterly annihilate him!
