Han Qian hesitated for a moment and said, “It’s indeed a good opportunity, but I’m just not comfortable with this kid. He dared to rush towards an eighth-level Moon Demon, and now that there are demons entering again, I’m still a bit worried.”

Ling Xiao said with some surprise, “It seems that what you said is true, these two children are really the future successors of your two great temples! But it’s no wonder, Hao Chen is not even twenty years old, and he has already broken through the sixth level. And he is deeply imbued with the spirit of chivalry. He is indeed a rare talent.”

Han Qian said solemnly, “Old Ling, only your Priest Temple knows the most about the Illusionary Paradise. Give me some guidance. How dangerous is it exactly?”

Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said, “Then you have to tell me the truth as well, why can these two children become the only candidates? Talent is one thing, but it is too risky for your two great temples to retain only one candidate. There must be other reasons. Even if they grow up at the fastest speed, it will take at least ten years. Aren’t the various tasks of the Demon Hunt Squads dangerous?”

Han Qian and Ying Suifeng exchanged glances, and Ying Suifeng said, “Alright, we are all old brothers who have been through life and death together, and you are the殿主 of the Priest Temple, so it’s okay to tell you. Old Ling probably already sees some clues.”

Han Qian waved his hand, and a golden light enveloped all five of them. He signaled to Long Haochen and said, “Tell him how old you are this year.”

Long Haochen said, “This junior is fifteen years old this year, and Cai’er is almost fifteen years old.”

Even though Ling Xiao was a generation of saints, he couldn’t help but open his mouth wide at this time, “Fifteen years old? You broke through the sixth level at only fifteen years old? Heavens! If you didn’t use any secret techniques, then what is your innate inner spiritual power?” The six great temples all have some secret techniques to force growth, but it is difficult to improve after using secret techniques to improve cultivation.

Han Qian said, “You asked the key question. Haochen’s innate inner spiritual power is ninety-seven, and Cai’er’s is one hundred. Have you heard of the Son of Light and the Saintess of Samsara?”

“Pa.” Ling Xiao slapped his forehead, then waved his hands towards Han Qian and Ying Suifeng, “Wait a moment, let me think, I feel a little dizzy. Son of Light, innate inner spiritual power ninety-seven? Saintess of Samsara, could it be that she inherited the legacy of the Child of Samsara?”

Han Qian and Ying Suifeng nodded at the same time.

Ling Xiao quickly came back to his senses, looking at Long Haochen, then at Cai’er, his eyes were almost like a big bad wolf looking at little lambs, especially when he looked at Long Haochen, he even clearly showed greed.

“Old Han,…”

Ling Xiao had only said two words when Han Qian interrupted him directly, “Don’t say any more, lest it hurts our friendship. You know it’s impossible.”

Ling Xiao said angrily, “I haven’t even said it yet, and you already know?”

Han Qian snorted, “Don’t say it’s you, even if Old Ling speaks, I can’t agree, and no one in the Knight Temple can agree. I’ve told you what you want to know, so hurry up and talk about the Illusionary Paradise. You should know what the Son of Light and the Saintess of Samsara mean to the alliance. When they grow up, it may be the day we truly counterattack the demons.”

Ling Xiao stroked his chest, took a deep breath, and gradually hid the greed in his eyes for Long Haochen. When he looked at Long Haochen again, the solemnity on his face had disappeared, and he said with a smile, “Haochen! I heard you are a guardian knight, what do you think of healing?”

Han Qian was furious, “Ling Xiao, you old thing, if you continue like this, I will go and complain to Old Ling.”

Ling Xiao glared at him and said, “Go ahead! See if the old man will pay attention to you. I’ll just say it straight, Haochen, as long as you are willing to give up the position of knight and come to our Priest Temple, I will decide now that the position of vice殿主 of the Priest Temple is yours. And I guarantee that you will break through to the ninth level within ten years and directly inherit my position as 殿主. A ninth-level Saint’s group healing can save tens of thousands of people! What’s so good about being a knight?”

He didn’t give up because of Han Qian’s words, Son of Light! This is the Son of Light! The most powerful talent that has never appeared in the entire alliance.

Han Qian suddenly stopped talking and just watched him perform.

Long Haochen said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Old Ling, I can’t agree to you. I will only be a knight.”

Ling Xiao’s forehead veins were exposed, and he said loudly, “Fifteen years, let you reach the ninth level within fifteen years. I will let the old man use the Enlightenment Initiation Technique to help you accelerate the increase of spiritual power. And I will find you at least three top-level priestal spiritual furnaces. After fifteen years, you will only be thirty years old, and the Priest Temple will fully help you win the position of the Temple Alliance Leader. How about that?”

Ying Suifeng said unhappily, “Alright, Old Ling. It’s useless. Ask who his father is before you speak. It seems that we really shouldn’t have told you.”

Ling Xiao was stunned and asked Long Haochen eagerly, “Who is your father?”

Long Haochen said, “My father is Long Xingyu.”

Ling Xiao’s body swayed, his face was obviously a little pale, and he habitually patted his forehead again, “It seems that I really should go back to the alliance for a trip, and everything that should be put down should be put down. If I were with her, maybe our children could also have powerful talent.”

Han Qian snorted coldly, “If you go to see her with this attitude, I guarantee you will die a very ugly death.”

Ling Xiao quickly put away the expression on his face and changed back to his previous solemn appearance, “I didn’t say anything, and I won’t admit it. Alright, let’s talk about business.”

“I suggest that these two children enter the Illusionary Paradise once. The demons can launch millions of troops to attack for the Illusionary Paradise, willing to enter it at all costs, which shows its importance.”

Please continue to read the following chapters, there are more exciting chapters!

“The Illusionary Paradise is a magical place, located in a forest one hundred and twenty miles north of Zhennan Pass. It is called the Illusionary Temple. It is said that the Illusionary Temple is the palace of the Goddess of Nature left in the world, and it absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own. The Illusionary Temple opens once every hundred years, and those who can enter will receive great opportunities, but they will also encounter dangers equal to the opportunities.”

Speaking of this, Ling Xiao paused slightly, looking at Long Haochen and Cai’er, and said, “This opportunity is especially important for you young people. Because the treasure produced in the Illusionary Paradise is the spiritual furnace.”

Long Haochen had been holding Cai’er’s hand, writing his words in Cai’er’s palm. As soon as the words spiritual furnace came out, Long Haochen and Cai’er were slightly shocked.

It can be said that the role of the spiritual furnace is crucial for them to possess strength beyond their peers. A place that can produce spiritual furnaces is worthy of being called a holy place.

Seeing Ling Xiao stop, Long Haochen couldn’t help but ask, “Grandpa Ling, how many spiritual furnaces can appear in the Illusionary Paradise each time?”

Ling Xiao said, “It’s different every time, but the types generally don’t exceed twenty, and only one of each type appears. The more powerful the spiritual furnace, the more difficult the test. The most important thing to enter the Illusionary Paradise is not to be greedy. Otherwise, even if you pass the test, you will die.”

Han Qian asked in confusion, “What do you mean by that? How can you die after passing the test?”

Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said, “Why is the old man willing to let the demons go? He must be confident. We have enough experience to make the demons return in defeat. Old Han, I ask you, if you see dozens of spiritual furnaces in front of you, what will you do?”

Han Qian said without hesitation, “Naturally, I will collect them with all my might.”

Ling Xiao said, “That’s right, that’s how it is. The spiritual furnaces in the Illusionary Temple can be collected at will, and you can collect as many as you want. But the test is behind. That is to say, when you are complacent and collect a large number of spiritual furnaces, your test will follow. The intensity of the test will be determined according to the number of spiritual furnaces obtained, and it will be geometrically strengthened. And it’s not just the test, there is also a more terrifying level, and those who are greedy will eventually die without a burial place.”

“The two beads that the old man gave you are Dream Gems produced in the Illusionary Paradise. With this thing, if you encounter an irresistible crisis inside, you can use the Dream Gems to escape immediately. Our people will definitely be guarding outside the temple. So, I still suggest that you go in and try it. Although you may already have spiritual furnaces, the spiritual furnaces produced in the Illusionary Temple can be said to be top-quality. Moreover, there may even be spiritual furnaces that we don’t know about. More importantly, the most terrifying level I just mentioned, that matter is also the biggest opportunity in the Illusionary Paradise.”

Speaking of this, a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes, “As for the demons, even if one or two out of ten can come out alive, they are lucky.”

The connection between Zhennan Pass and the demons was very fast. After a series of negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreement. As for what benefits humans got from the demons during the negotiation process, only the high-level officials knew. What can be imagined is that due to the victory in the defense of Zhennan Pass, this time the blackmail would never be light.

For Long Haochen, he didn’t care at all about how the Temple Alliance and the demons negotiated, nor did he need to know how the Temple Alliance allocated the places to enter the Illusionary Temple. All he knew was that he and Cai’er would each have a place, which was enough.

In the past three days, Long Haochen was very busy. Visits from partners and acquaintances from various Demon Hunt Squads, as well as visits from representatives of the military at Zhennan Pass, kept him busy. His actions were fully affirmed by the military, and the reward of 50,000 merits naturally came with it.

However, for Long Haochen, there was something more important in his heart. After learning the specific situation in the Illusionary Temple from Ling Xiao, he had already made a bold decision. The treasures in the Illusionary Temple are spiritual furnaces! Who doesn’t want to have one? For the plan in his heart, Long Haochen expressed to Han Qian that he wanted to retreat with his partners until the Illusionary Temple opened.
