Chapter 157: Advancing


    From that we can see how rare full-elemental fairies were. In fact only one had ever been sighted in thest 100,000 years. The magician who subdued it was Longzi, the human who became a god and ascended to the higher realm.


    But Ming Xi faced that elusive fairy just now. It was surreal. The legendary fairy, not just a single-elemental fairy, but a full one, had been in front of him. And it was just eaten by a sword


    Can someone please exin how a sword could even eat a fairy?! If Ming Xi was living in modern-day Earth he would have said it made no sense.


    However facts tell us even illogical things can happen, so just be calm.


    Feng Wus mood was much more stablepared to Ming Xi. She was only a little worried about the shy fruit. Xiao Chun hadnt really eaten it had he?


    She rxed after shemunicated with Xiao Chun and was reassured the fruit was alive and well.


    The small tree and spring existed for the fairy, so once the fairy was gone both dried and withered away. A long staircase appeared in the pond bed. It looked like the path to the next level.


    Those who entered a nightmare corridor had toplete the journey on their own. No one could lead them out. Feng Wu and Ming Xi didnt know how long their friends would take.


    The only way for people in the corridor to safely exit, if they couldnt do so on their own, was if someone imed the gods inheritance. Once imed, the tomb would forcefully teleport out anyone still inside. Only the inheritor had the right to remain.


    So it didnt make sense to wait. If Drew and Pei Qing could get out, they would. If they couldnt, then their only hope was for someone to im the inheritance as soon as possible. The best option was to keep moving and try to im the inheritance. Waiting around wouldnt do anyone any good.


    They stepped onto the dark staircase one after the other. Both their abilities were restored when they did. Ming Xi was a rare magic arts sword user so he easily created a ball of light.


    Ming Xi held onto Feng Wus hand and kept her behind him while he took the lead. The stairs kept going with no end in sight.


    The steps were littered with the remains of humans, gods, and beasts caught in the long-ago war.


    He understood corpses frightened girls. Elena was the only girl he knew who wasnt scared of such things. He was worried Feng Wu would be afraid as well, so he was relieved to see her usual expression when he looked back. Honestly he had been worried for nothing.


    The staircase was surprisingly long. They walked for twenty minutes before finally reaching a door. It was metal andpletely ck with no decorations. A sinister aura came from it.


    Feng Wu instinctively disliked whatever was behind the door.


    Ming Xi frowned. A faint glow quickly shed in his eyes. He tentatively pushed on the door. What looked heavy opened easily under his touch.


    Feng Wus eyes were bright with admiration. Senior Ming Xi is so amazing! she said in an exuberant voice.


    That was an exaggeration. Ming Xi was embarrassed as he looked back at her. I''m really not that great. The door just looks heavy, but its not.


    He wasnt being humble; the doors appearance was truly misleading.


    His expression turned worse. Behind the door was another hall. He grabbed Feng Wus hand and pulled her behind him as they walked through.


    There were five people already inside the hall: Jier, Zi Cheng, Ai Lin, Yiduo ns Seventh Elder Fy, and Raging Infernos Cohen. Fy ignored them and looked away. Cohen looked away too but he greeted them with a nod before doing so.


    Jier ran over to Feng Wu when he saw her. He rubbed her head and asked, Xiao Wu, are you uninjured? She didnt look injured so she was probably fine.


    Im OK. How about you? It felt like she hadnt seen him in ages. Her eyes curved in a smile.


    What could happen to me? Im so strong. How could I get hurt? His voice was loud and arrogant, not caring who was around.


    Senior Ming Xi, Senior Tian Ya said he wasnt interested in the inheritance. Senior Luis wont being either. Ai Lin delivered the message after walking up to them.


    Zi Cheng and Ai Lin understood why Tian Ya wasnt interested. It was impossible for him to inherit a magical inheritance since he was a sword user, so it was useless for him to go farther.


    Luis though, they didnt understand. He was a magician so this was a huge opportunity. Why wasn''t he fighting for it?! Dont be mistaken, they were happy he dropped out. The fewer opponents there were, the better their odds of getting the inheritance.


    Ming Xi knew why Luis dropped out. That guy, already had a god inheritance from his family n, so he didnt need this one. As the eldest, he had already gone to his ancestral home to im it, so he had no interest in this one aside from some general curiosity.
