With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 578 Inheritance (41)



Feng Yu didn't seem like he would elaborate further on this as he suddenly changed the topic.

He went back over to the pillar and patted it before saying, "Since you have passed this trial, it is time that you've received the proof of passing this trial."

After patting it, the pillar suddenly gathered the light at its tip before releasing a beam of light that came right at Lin Fan. This beam of light went right to Lin Fan's hand, the same hand that he had received the other proof on.

Once that beam of light entered Lin Fan's hand, he saw that there was another dot that appeared.

This dot formed a formation with the other three dots and now it had formed a strange looking quadrilateral.

The lines of this strange quadrilateral were all of different length and all of the angles were different, but it still formed this strange four sided shape.

After that beam of light entered his hand, Feng Yu turned around to look at Lin Fan with a strange emotional look on his face. He just kept looking at Lin Fan without saying a thing, as if he was thinking something.

Finally, Feng Yu said, "I hope that you will be able to pass the final trial. It has been a long time since I've made this place and yet no one has been able to pass this trial. I really hope that you will be the one."

With that, Feng Yu didn't explain a thing as he suddenly disappeared.

Instead of fading away, it was as if he scattered into flower petals as he disappeared bit by bit until he was completely gone.

It was as if he was completely disappearing from this world.

But that was kind of what it was since this was his soul fragment scattering away.

Once it ran out of energy, it would no longer exist in this world.

In a sense, this was true death for Feng Yu since he no longer had any soul fragments left in this world. Or at least that was as far as Lin Fan was concerned since he didn't know if there were any more soul fragments of Feng Yu in this world.

After Feng Yu disappeared, the pillar crumbled away just like the other pillars.

The only difference this time was that the pieces didn't disappear into dust. Instead, the pillar seemed to scatter away into seeds that were planted into the ground.

As soon as these seeds entered the ground, there were green plants that appeared.

Lin Fan didn't understand what was happening, but he quickly moved back when he saw these plants growing towards him. It had only been around the area of the pillar at first, but then it quickly started to spread from the area where the pillar had been.

With the rate that it was growing, it was as if it would fill up the entire cave soon.

Lin Fan didn't know what would happen if he touched these plants, but he didn't want to stick around to find out.

It was a good thing that the plants were spreading at a pace that he could match, so he was able to get out of the way in time.

The elders all quickly went to the entrance of the cave when they saw this since they too didn't know what would happen if they touched the plants. So at the very least, they didn't plan on finding out.

In the end, the plants didn't leave this cave.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the cave, the plants suddenly stopped growing as if there was something at the entrance of this cave that cut them off. It was like there was some kind of border that stopped them from growing any further.

Lin Fan and the elders just stood there, looking into the cave that was now filled with green.

These plants had completely swallowed the corpses of the spirit beasts that were on the ground. Then it seemed like these corpses were broken down as nutrition by these plants as they were covered in green.

The only other thing in this cave was the spirit beast puppets that the Control Toad had left behind.

Since Lin Fan and the elders blocked the entrance, the puppets weren't able to leave with them.

They had been caught by the plants and were still standing there in the room.

However, it didn't seem like there was anything that the plants were doing to them. They were able to stand perfectly fine on the plants without the plants covering them like the spirit beast corpses.

The plants seemed to recognize the difference between living creatures and corpses, so it didn't seem to attack living creatures.

Lin Fan slowly moved towards the entrance of that cave.

The elders seemed like they wanted to stop him, but they weren't able to do it in time as Lin Fan had already stepped through the threshold and into the cave.

When he stepped onto the plants, there was no reaction from them.

There was no sensation that came from these plants as well as he stood on them.

It seemed that these plants weren't going to do anything to him.

As he stood there, Lin Fan couldn't help looking down at the plants as if he was trying to figure out what they were. But in the end, he wasn't able to find a single thing.

As for his Appraisal Eyes, he wasn't able to use them right now since they were still hurting from when he tried to force it with the pillar.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to do all of this.

As he stood there, the other elders also came forward to look at the plants.

While they didn't know why Lin Fan was so obsessed with these plants, they figured that it wouldn't be for a bad reason. He must have his reason for doing all of this, even if it was risky for him to put his body on the line like this.

Though after a while, they couldn't keep waiting for him to find anything.

Senior Brother Ying came forward and said, "Sect master, should we return to camp?"

Lin Fan was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard this and turned back to look at Senior Brother Ying.

But he didn't say anything in the end since he didn't know what to do for once.

However, he did know what would give him the answer to the questions that he had.

So instead of answering, he looked at the dots that were on his hand.

These dots were supposed to lead them to the final trial, so he wanted to see what the dots would tell him.

As he looked down at the dots, he couldn't help revealing a confused look since he didn't understand what they meant. They were in this strange four sided shape, but they didn't seem to mean anything at all…

That was until he found that there was something strangely familiar about these dots.

Then when he thought about it further, he realized that there was something about the order that these dots had been added to his hand.

They corresponded with the direction that they had found the pillars in.

He wasn't certain about it, but the distance between the dots seemed similar to the distance between the pillars that they had found.

Could it be that when all four dots appeared, it was a map of this Minor World?

If that was the case, there had to be a reason why it would form a map like this.

At the very center of this map…should be the entrance to this Minor World and where they had set up camp…

So was the final trial there?

It would make sense since there was no reason for that barrier to be there unless there was something for that barrier to hold in or keep out.

They had thought that it was the spirit beasts, but now it seemed like it was something much different.

Seeing that Lin Fan wasn't saying a thing, Senior Brother Ying waited patiently at first. But eventually he ran out of patience and he asked, "Sect master?"

Lin Fan was pulled out of his thoughts and brought his hand up for Senior Brother Ying to see before saying, "Does this look familiar?"

Senior Brother Ying looked down at the dots on his hand before slowly shaking his head.

Lin Fan gave a nod before explaining his theory to them.

At first, the elders revealed a confused look, but then they had shocked looks at the end.

There were some that also had worried looks.

If Lin Fan's theory was correct, then those at the camp would be in danger.

The ones at the camp were their disciples, so of course they would be worried.

But before they could run off, Lin Fan stopped them and said, "Wait, we're not going back yet."

They were all shocked when they heard this, but they waited for Lin Fan to explain.

Lin Fan just calmly said, "If we go back now, all we'd be doing is causing trouble. After all, whatever is at the camp shouldn't have been activated yet or we would have already had to deal with it."

He looked down at his hand before saying, "It's most likely activated once I bring the proof of finishing all of the trials back, so we would be causing harm than helping them."

The elders looked down at Lin Fan's hand before slowly giving nods of agreement.

Lin Fan took a deep breath and said, "We'll rest up here since it's a safe place. Then we'll head back after that."

The elders had slightly worried looks, but they still agreed in the end.
