The old man from Tianmen sobbed, and tears streamed down his face: “At that time I was in seclusion, and when I came out, the entire Tianmen had become a river of blood and was covered with corpses.”
My most valued disciple, my most trusted relative, betrayed me and destroyed the culmination of my life’s hard work.
The old man from Tianmen took a deep breath and continued, “I hid the core area of Tianmen, which formed this ruin.”
Then I destroyed my physical body and followed my disciples, leaving only a piece of my soul here. I have waited here for over ten thousand years, hoping to find someone truly qualified to inherit the Heavenly Gates inheritance and for them to fulfill one of my wishes.
After hearing this, David and Liu Xue finally understood why the previous exams had always been about not acting like saints.
It turns out that the Heavenly Gates Sect Leader’s kindness in saving the demons actually caused the sect’s destruction.
Now they knew why Tianmen had disappeared overnight—it had been destroyed by the Soul Eater.
“Senior, that Soul Eater has committed countless crimes on Ninth Heaven and has been subdued on Sixth Heaven for ten thousand years,” David said.
“He’s been bullied? Looks like he’s received his due punishment.” The old man from Tianmen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
“However, that Soul Eater has escaped again and has now returned to Ninth Heaven,” David said.
The old man from Tianmen was taken aback, then said, “Young man, can you stop talking so dramatically?”
“Senior, what is your wish?” Liu Xue asked respectfully.
A flash of determination flashed in the Tianmen old man’s eyes: “My wish is that someone can finish off the Soul Eater for me and avenge the Tianmen disciples.”
At the same time, I also hope that Tianmen’s legacy can continue, allowing Tianmen to once again stand firm in the Nine Heavens.
The old man from Tianmen looked at David and said solemnly, “Young man, I see firm determination and great strength in you.”
You successfully passed all the tests I gave you, proving that you are not a soft-hearted saint, but a strong person who is able to survive in this cruel world.
“I have decided to pass on the entire inheritance of Tianmen to you. This inheritance includes the cultivation resources that have been accumulated by Tianmen for generations, the unique skills and techniques of Tianmen, as well as the treasures that protect Tianmen.”
I hope you can use these resources to quickly increase your strength, then finish off the Soul Eater and avenge the Heavenly Gates.
After saying that, the old man from Tianmen waved his hand, and a golden light shot out of his hand, instantly blending into David’s body.
