On weekdays, casual cultivators or cultivators from small sects and small clans are often forced, suppressed, and even bullied by various powerful forces.

Now even if they can't get the inheritance, it would be a blessing to see people of the same origin get this thing. At least it would be more satisfying than watching those strong people stay strong.

"Have you absorbed the essence of fire?"

On the altar, Immortal Ruyi looked at Qin Cheng and frowned.

Qin Cheng nodded and said, "I can take this thing out."

"No problem." Immortal Ruyi waved his hand, pointed to the five futons in front of him and said, "The five of you, sit cross-legged here and put the essence in the spiritual light in front of you. As for you, just put your palms on it.

That's it."

Several people stepped forward. In front of the small altar, there was a flat platform with five rays of light shining on it. They put the essence filaments into it one after another.

When Qin Cheng stepped forward, he looked back at Liu Meng. The latter nodded slightly.

"You guys, put your hands on this light to activate the spiritual energy and circulate the essence." Ruyi Immortal Lord said again.

At this moment, when the five people couldn't see it, a look of desire flashed through the depths of the Immortal Lord's eyes.

"Senior, junior, I have something that I don't understand." Just when the four of them were about to do as they were told, Qin Cheng suddenly spoke.

The other four were stunned and stopped temporarily.

"What do you want to ask?" Immortal Ruyi frowned and said with some displeasure.

"Senior chose to inherit the disciples, why do you want us to find the essence of the Five Elements, and why do you want us to use spiritual energy to activate it?" Qin Cheng said calmly.

"Do you think there is something wrong with what I asked you to do?" Ruyi Xianzun said with a half-smile.

"I really don't understand. I hope senior can clear up my confusion," Qin Cheng said.

"It's ridiculous. Senior, I still need to explain to you what I do?" After hearing this, Mr. Chen raised his eyebrows and sneered.

"You're right. Senior is a powerful person from ancient times. No matter what he asks us to do, we just do it. Do you think you are as good as senior?" The woman in red also scolded.

"Senior, if this person has such objections, why not simply disqualify him? There is no need to choose him as the successor for such a disrespectful person." The old man also said.

Although the other woman did not speak, her expression showed disdain and ridicule towards Qin Cheng.

In their opinion, among the five people present, only one would become the successor of Ruyi Immortal Lord, and the rest were their competitors. Qin Cheng's offensive words gave them a good opportunity to attack, and of course they would not let it go.

"I think what you said makes sense. How about I withdraw?" Qin Cheng said suddenly, about to retreat, as if he really planned not to participate.

Immortal Ruyi, who was originally smiling, suddenly frowned.

"Junior, I understand your doubts, but I have my own considerations when choosing a successor. The essence of the five elements contains the origin of the five elements, allowing you to communicate with spiritual energy. The purpose is to test which of you is more talented in understanding the origin.

This is also one of my criteria for selecting disciples."

"Since you have worked so hard and got this opportunity, do you really want to give up? I don't want any problems with the successor. You participated in my inheritance selection and now you insist on giving up, don't blame me for taking action." Ruyi Xian

Zun contains the meaning of threat.

"Junior is just a little confused and has no intention of quitting. They forced me to say these words. I was impulsive. Senior, don't blame me."

Qin Cheng smiled and walked back.

"you!"

The other four people were a little disappointed and a little angry. Qin Cheng had sued them.

However, this Ruyi Immortal Lord had a really strange temper. Qin Cheng obviously questioned him, but did not disqualify him, and instead explained it gently.

Then the five people pressed their palms on the light.

A suction force appeared, pulling the spiritual energy of the five people into the altar.

At the same time, the essence of the Five Elements also began to surge toward the altar.

As the altar opened, a jet-black aura gradually filled the air, like a big black hand. It floated and quickly enveloped the entire hall, blocking the consciousness and sight of everyone paying attention outside the hall.

As the black mist rose, a cold and strange atmosphere suddenly surged between heaven and earth, giving the temple a mysterious color.

This made many people outside the hall feel cold and suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness.

In front of the altar, Mr. Chen and the four others were desperately activating their spiritual energy in an attempt to perform at a better level.

The vortex under their palms is like a black hole that can never be filled. No matter how much spiritual energy is stimulated into it, it will disappear immediately.

But the only exciting thing was that the essence of the Five Elements suspended in front of them became brighter and brighter under the infusion of their spiritual energy.

Qin Cheng sat cross-legged on the side with a quiet expression. He had been pouring in spiritual energy, but he was only releasing it normally without any fatigue.

While the four people were running their spiritual energy, they were also observing others.

Seeing the light of the flame essence in front of Qin Cheng being the weakest, the four of them sneered in their hearts.

Although I don’t know who among the others is in the lead, Qin Cheng must have been eliminated.

But as time passed, the four of them no longer had the intention to pay attention to anyone else.

Sweat gradually broke out on the foreheads of the four of them, and their breathing became heavier.

More than half of the spiritual energy in the body has surged out crazily, but the vortex remains unchanged. The essence filaments in front of the body have also reached an extreme point and no longer change at all.

"Senior, how long will this assessment take?"

Among the four, the old man's breath was the weakest. He breathed heavily and looked at the Ruyi Immortal above.

"How long? Of course, the longer the better."

Immortal Ruyi's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he said with a smile: "This is also a test. Only those with the highest talent and the strongest resilience are qualified to receive my inheritance."

As soon as these words came out, the four of them felt as if they had been given blood. They continued to grit their teeth and persisted, while releasing their spiritual energy even more crazily.

"Are you just giving up?" Immortal Ruyi suddenly looked at Qin Cheng and asked with interest.

The other four people's essence has already been activated to the limit. Only Qin Cheng's side has half of this level.

"Senior and junior, on the contrary, I feel that a steady flow of water is the right path."

Qin Cheng looked on with cold eyes and responded calmly.

Even if the four of them persist, they will eventually run out of strength.

"Senior, I quit."

The old man's face turned pale and he could no longer hold on. The vortex under his palm started unknown when, and the suction force increased greatly. This caused the spiritual energy in his body to be almost exhausted, and he could no longer hold on.

Although he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to give up.

The other three people all smiled when they saw this. Although they had a hard time, at least one of their opponents was eliminated.

But after the old man said he would admit defeat, the suction force of the vortex under his palm did not stop, but suddenly increased sharply.
