Chapter Nine The Final Attempt

  Along the way, many outer sect disciples did not suspect Fang Tian Nan's arrival. Even among the outer sect disciples themselves, they were not necessarily all very familiar with each other.

  Although Fang Tian Nan has just arrived, it's hard to say that he isn't a outer sect disciple of the sect. After all, with the passage of time, there are still a small number of outer sect disciples who have just rushed to the valley at this moment.

  Until Fang Tiannan walked out of the crowd and approached the gate in the void, many suspicious gazes were cast upon him.

  At this time, the gate in the void, the grayish white light it emitted, actually underwent a change. The originally still very substantial gate now faded a lot, as if it would disappear unintentionally at any moment.

  Among the crowd, a Yuanjing True Person from Qingyun Sect suddenly said, "Not good, the energy at the entrance has been almost depleted."

  "Fang Lao, isn't it better if the energy is almost depleted?" asked an inner sect disciple of the sect, "Once the seal energy on the gate is completely consumed, who knows, maybe we'll also have a chance to enter the Transmission Cave Heaven."

  After all, everyone stays here waiting to see the final result is one aspect, in their hearts, they may not have thought of personally entering the inheritance cave. It's just that the seal energy on the gate blocks practitioners without fire attributes from entering.

  That Fang Clan elder let out a sigh upon hearing this. The other several Nascent Soul cultivators from the local area also had unsightly expressions, furrowing their brows in deep thought.

  "We can't keep trying like this without any restraint." Finally, Fang Zhang said to the several local true immortals of Bi Hai Zong and Tai Hang Bang, "Everyone try to choose those with energy attributes biased towards fire attributes, and make a last attempt. As for those who have already tried once, hurry up and stand aside. I'm afraid that in about ten more people, this entrance will disappear. At that time, no one will be able to enter halfway."

  The local masters of the three major sects, including those of the smaller sects, once again took control of the entire scene. For a time, near the gate in the void, there were many fewer onlookers. Including several executives from the three major sects, they all retreated several steps.

  All the inner and outer disciples, as long as they possess fire attribute energy, have been tested in the previous time. Fang Tian Nan did not carefully count how many there were, but from the whispers of a few people on the side, it was understood that fourteen people had successfully entered the Void Gate.

  Among them, five belonged to the Qingyun Sect. Four belonged to the Bihai Sect. On the other hand, only two people from the Taihang Gang, one of the three major sects, were able to enter. The remaining three were young disciples from small sects.

  Fang Tian Nan glanced in the direction where the Tai Hang Gang members were, with a hint of surprise. However, thinking that the personnel composition of the Tai Hang Gang was complex, and most of the sect's members were adult cultivators, it was understandable to have such a result.

  When they approached the gate in the void, complete silence fell. Fang Tian Nan looked around and found that apart from a few Earthly Realm True Men, only about twenty young men were left.

  This includes Fang Tian Nan as well.

  。。。。。。

  The feeling of being stared at by many people is not pleasant, especially when these gazes are filled with suspicion and anger. Fang Tian Nan subconsciously touched his nose wing, then took out the identity badge representing the Outer Gate disciple from his pocket and pinned it to the left chest position.

  As a result, the gaze of other sect members towards Fang Tian Nan suddenly diminished. On the contrary, there was a Qingyun Sect outer gate attendant who walked up to Fang Tian Nan and inquired about his energy attribute.

  The final quota is roughly fixed at fifteen. On the surface, the three major sects seem to be harmonious and full of tacit understanding, but in private, they are absolutely competing with each other to the death, with a competitive relationship everywhere. Although Qingyun Sect was the first to discover this inheritance cave heaven, because five members had already entered before, at this moment, under the joint pressure of the other two sects, only three quotas can be allocated.

  Taihang Sect has the most, with six quotas; Bihai Sect is second, with four quotas; Qingyun Sect, as one of the three major sects, barely exceeds the two quotas allocated to several small sects, and is divided among three people.

  As for the candidates within their own sects, the elders and executives naturally have the most say. At this moment, Fang Tian Nan suddenly appeared as a variable, and Qing Yun Sect's executive naturally had to pay attention.

  At this time, Fang Tian Nan couldn't help but sigh in relief that he had exchanged for the Outer Sect Disciple's identity token today. Otherwise, the tone of the steward in front of him would probably not be so polite. Not being driven away immediately or beaten up was already a good treatment, let alone asking first.

  "I'd like to give it a try." Fang Tian Nan said sincerely. For Fang Tian Nan, this was probably his last chance to make a move. Looking at the face of the executor, who seemed to be turning serious, Fang Tian Nan thought for a moment and added, "My energy attribute is yang attribute, I should have some chance."

  "Yang attribute energy?" The steward's eyes were somewhat strange. Not that he doubted Fang Tian Nan was lying. At this moment, the steward had no doubt that Fang Tian Nan would absolutely not dare to have any deceitful behavior. It's just that yang attribute energy is indeed related to fire attribute, extremely rare, and even more special than wind or ice attributes.

  For a moment, the eyes of this steward changed and changed again, until finally they gradually softened, and he nodded slightly towards the sky, saying: "Wait."

  After that, the deacon went to one side and exchanged a few words with Fang Zhanglao, then beckoned to Fang Tiannan. When Fang Tiannan approached, Fang Zhanglao sized him up for a moment, had him demonstrate a move, confirmed it was yang-attributed energy, and made his decision: "You'll represent the sect and go first in the trial... Ah yes, what's your name?"

  "Fang Tian Nan." Fang Tian Nan replied calmly.

  "Fang Tian Nan? ... Hehe, ... work hard then." Perhaps it was because of the same surname, but Elder Fang couldn't help but smile when looking at Fang Tian Nan.

  As for the other three disciples who were selected, how they would be arranged in the trial was no longer something that Fang Tian Nan needed to worry about. With Elder Fang's words, at least Fang Tian Nan didn't have to fear someone taking his spot. In the eyes of someone like Elder Fang, any outer sect disciple was the same for the sect. Whoever had a better chance, the sect would be willing to give him more opportunities to grasp it.

  。。。。。。

  It was roughly a moment later that all fifteen of the last exploratory candidates had been finalized.

  Due to the limited number of 15 quotas, it is roughly predicted by the local players on the scene based on the energy distribution of the gates in the void. It can't be said to be accurate, and can only be said to be a rough estimate. No one knows if this gate will suddenly close due to some unexpected circumstances.

  So, the earlier one tries, the safer it is. The leaders of the four forces present also had a dispute. In short, in this situation, one still needs to rely on their own strength to speak. Fang Tian Nan couldn't help but think that even outside the gate, the situation was already like this, so what kind of intense competition would those who entered the Transmission Cave Heaven have?

  The first to make a probing move was a young junior of the Taihang Gang. The result was disappointing. Even he himself, Fang Tian Nan could clearly see the gloom on his face. Next was a young member of the Bi Hai Zong, and as expected, also ended in failure.

  Actually, for the last 15 people who are trying out now, apart from those participating, I'm afraid nobody has much hope in their hearts. In short, it's just a mindset of trying once more if possible, and entering one more place if possible.

  When it was the third turn, Fang Changlao of Qingyun Sect gave a hint to Fang Tiannan with his eyes. Immediately, Fang Tiannan quietly adjusted his state and walked to the front of the gate in the void. It is worth noting that during this waiting period, Mo Zhixi, who had previously asked Fang Tiannan questions, also reminded him of some precautions. For example, when walking to the front of the gate, he needed to quickly mobilize the energy inside his body, and if rejected, how to defend himself to ensure his own safety, etc.

  This made Fang Tian Nan feel that the Qing Yun Sect, although it had extremely strict promotion rules, still had a certain collective sense of honor within the scope of its personnel, and even externally, it was quite cohesive. Otherwise, as the inner door executive of the sect, Mo Zhui would not have been so attentive to Fang Tian Nan, this newly promoted outer disciple.

  Even if there is a stubborn expectation that Fang Tiannan can successfully enter the Inheritance Cave Heaven and make the sect proud, it is enough to make Fang Tiannan have more identification and belonging to Qingyun Sect.

  Just as Fang Tiannan came into contact with the gate in the void, the grayish-white energy that was transmitted out wanted to operate his own inner energy according to Mo Zhishi's instructions. Suddenly, two powerful energies rushed over from all sides, as if they were going to penetrate Fang Tiannan's body.

  In an instant, Fang Tiannan felt his body being entwined, pulled and collided by the two energies. Then, these energies suddenly all poured into his body, beginning to wreak havoc on his meridians, blood, and even his bone marrow.

  Fang Tian Nan wanted to scream, but couldn't make a sound. He wanted to resist, but found that he had lost control of his own body. His entire being was like standing in mid-air, and also like a rootless water lily, instinctively enduring the impact of these energies as they rampaged about, slowly losing consciousness.
