Chapter Ten: Dan Tian
The scene produced by Fang Tian Nan's probing has aroused everyone's curiosity.
At first, the people of Qingyun Sect were extremely excited. At least, after Fang Tian Nan's attempt, the gate in the void had a strong reaction and did not immediately repel Fang Tian Nan. Instead, some grayish-white energy burst out from the gate, wrapping Fang Tian Nan up. This was the same treatment as those who successfully entered the Transmission Heaven before.
If Fang Tiannan can also successfully enter the Inheritance Cave Heaven, then the entire Qingyun Sect will have six members gathered inside. Although it's said that having an advantage in numbers doesn't necessarily translate to gaining an advantage in inheritance, it's still some kind of advantage, isn't it?
Didn't see that as the changes occurred on Fang Tian Nan's body, the rest of the forces' people, when looking at the Qing Yun Zong crowd, all had expressions full of jealousy on their faces?
However, as time slowly passed by, the grayish-white light on Fang Tian Nan's body grew stronger and stronger. In the end, his entire person was distorted and struggling, which made the surrounding crowd suddenly feel a sense of foreboding.
Fortunately, in everyone's eyes, Fang Tiannan's painful expression came quickly and went away quickly.
Just as everyone had just given birth to a few points of worry, the gray-white energy group wrapped around Fang Tiannan, "hissed" and retreated back to the gate in the void. Fang Tiannan also disappeared on the spot along with it. This scene was naturally exactly the same as when Gu Yanrou and others entered the inheritance cave heaven for the first time.
The slight differences that appeared in the middle were not taken seriously by everyone. It can't be said that it was because of Fang Tiannan's own fire attribute energy, which was not prominent enough. The leaders of Qingyun Sect, such as Fang Zhanglao and Mo Zhishi, attributed the reason to Fang Tiannan's possession of yang attribute energy.
Mo Zhui was still pondering, wondering if he should remind them to have the sect members search for any other yang-attributed energy cultivators. However, thinking about how rare yang-attributed energy was, if such a disciple existed, Mo Zhui would probably already know about it, unless they were like Fang Tian Nan, a newly promoted outer sect disciple.
It was just this probability that made Mo Ze shake his head slightly.
At this moment, the people of Qingyun Sect were still rejoicing, and the young members of other sects were eager to try. Several Earthly Realm True People eagerly pushed out the fourth person who tried when the large gate in the void suddenly flashed and then completely disappeared into the void, as if such a large gate had never appeared in this valley.
The brightness in the entire valley suddenly weakened a lot.
If it weren't for the torches in many people's hands illuminating the surroundings, it would have already turned into an inky blackness all around.
At that moment, the faces of all the people in the valley showed a look of astonishment. Especially the young man from Taixing Gang who was about to try to enter the inheritance cave, at this time he stared wide-eyed, not knowing what to do. For Fang Tian Nan, it was necessary to strive for the last chance, and for him, why not?
。。。。。。
Fang Tiannan was unaware of the changes in the gate in the void. When he regained his consciousness and retook control of his body, he found himself in a relatively spacious room. What surprised Fang Tiannan was that the fourteen cultivators who had originally entered the Transmission Cave Heaven were also here.
The furnishings in the room give people a very classical and simple feeling.
There was a rush cushion, and Fang Tian Nan was sitting on a yellowish-brown rush cushion at this time. The other fourteen people were also the same. There was a wooden table facing Fang Tian Nan against the wall, temporarily unknown what material it was made of, but just by looking at its appearance, it could be seen that it was not an ordinary object. On the four legs of the table, there were some carvings of demonic beasts, lifelike and vivid. The tabletop showed a dark purple color. Next to the table, there was a cabinet with three rows of small bottles on it. The top row had only one bottle; the middle row had five bottles; and the bottom row had nine bottles.
Each bottle, in terms of appearance, is roughly the same, with only slight differences in color depth. The higher the bottle, the deeper the color.
Just as Fang Tian Nan sat down, someone beside him spoke up: "Alright, now that everyone is here, it's time to see each of your talents and efforts."
Suddenly, Fang Tiannan turned his puzzled gaze towards the other party. However, judging from the clothes and the emblem on their body, it was a disciple of the Bi Hai Sect's inner sect. As for Fang Tiannan's puzzlement, they naturally wouldn't explain much. On the other hand, a Qing Yun Sect outer sect disciple who saw Fang Tiannan explained briefly due to their shared sect ties.
Behind Fang Tian Nan, there was a large gate which had already been closed.
Every person who comes in is pulled into this big gate by the grayish-white energy. The original door was always open, now it's closed, and there are exactly fifteen meditation cushions placed inside the room, naturally indicating that no one else will enter.
The person who arrived at this room before Fang Tian Nan didn't have much of an advantage over him, and they didn't know much about the inheritance of the cave either. Each person sitting on the futon wasn't unwilling to search around the room, but since the door hadn't closed yet, no matter how hard everyone tried, they couldn't leave their futons. So, everyone could only sit cross-legged and rest, waiting for the moment when they would regain their freedom of movement.
Fang Tian Nan heard this and wanted to try standing up. Indeed, he felt a huge power binding him. Although simply stretching his legs, moving his hands, or turning his head, speaking, etc., would not cause any major problems, wanting to circulate the energy inside his body or stand up and walk was impossible.
Faintly, Fang Tian Nan felt that the atmosphere in the entire room was filled with a hint of strangeness.
Apart from Fang Tiannan, the others naturally wouldn't continue to size up the room at this time. They had already seen everything they needed to see, and apart from a few simple decorations in sight, there was nothing else in the room. Besides, since it was a transmission of the heavenly cave, it wouldn't always restrict the freedom of action of those who broke in. There would be a time when the restrictions were lifted, and at that time, everyone would rely on their own abilities to compete for the opportunity to receive the transmission. It's just that Fang Tiannan always felt that something was missing in the entire room.
When Fang Tian Nan's gaze swept across the remaining fourteen people and then thought of his own seat, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Fifteen people were not sitting in a row or several rows, but instead surrounded the center of the room and sat in a circle. Of course, on the side facing Fang Tian Nan, there was a relatively large "gap", where the table and cupboard were located.
Fang Tian Nan was not clear whether the people on the couches were seated according to the order of their arrival, from near to far from the wall cabinet. However, judging from normal circumstances, it should be so. Moreover, in the center of the crowd's seating, there would be something else present.
Then Fang Tian Nan checked his own safety and found that there would be no problem for the time being, so he concentrated his attention on the center point where everyone was sitting.
Suddenly, Fang Tiannan's calm face changed, and his entire being fell into a state of turmoil.
。。。。。。
When he first entered the Transmission Heaven, Fang Tian Nan deeply felt that two unfamiliar powerful energies were surging wildly into his body. They ravaged Fang Tian Nan's body, making him suffer unbearably. However, after sitting down on the strange room's cushion, because he couldn't circulate the energy within his body and suddenly arrived at a new place, it made Fang Tian Nan neglect the existence of these two energies.
At this moment, he once again felt the fluctuation of energy within his body, which really startled Fang Tian Nan.
At this time, in Fang Tiannan's dantian, the metal plaque that had merged with his body and occupied the center of his dantian still existed. The internal energy that Fang Tiannan had cultivated himself was surrounding the metal plaque, faintly, and had become more intense. Fang Tiannan pondered that this might be related to the previous time when his body had been ravaged by two strange energies. Some of the remaining energy had stayed in the meridians within his body and were then absorbed by Fang Tiannan.
Moreover, that inexplicable turmoil was coming from the metal plate in his dantian. It seemed as if this metal plate contained two ferocious beasts, which at this moment were trying to break free and burst out of Fang Tian's body.
This made Fang Tian Nan dare not believe his guess that the two huge energies from before wouldn't have entered this metal plate after entering his body, right?
If Fang Tiannan knew, as soon as he entered the Transmission Heaven, the Void Gate that was originally predicted by many Earthly Realm True Persons to be able to continue testing more than a dozen people immediately closed and disappeared. Needless to say, Fang Tiannan would be even more certain of this guess.
Even so, when Fang Tiannan's gaze was directed at the center of the room, he could still feel that two energies were intertwined together, as if a grayish-white light suddenly burst out from Fang Tiannan's body, instantly striking the point Fang Tiannan was focusing on, and then quickly returned.
Fang Tiannan's body did not suffer greatly from the emergence of these two energies. Moreover, that instant of radiance, if one didn't look closely, would have seemed to come from the large door behind Fang Tiannan. After all, this grayish-white radiance was all too familiar to the people present.
Just like when everyone was led into the Transmission Cave Heaven, the big gate emitted a light that enveloped the whole body.
At the same time, in the center of the room, a "creaking" sound came, and the flat ground slowly cracked open. From underground, a wisp of cyan smoke slowly rose. Under the cyan smoke, there was a brown dan furnace the size of a human head.
