The inheritance site of the main hall of the Icebound Temple?

The Heaven-reaching Bridge?

Ye Chen's eyes turned to the Hall Spirit beside him, filled with an inquisitive expression.

He knew nothing of this Heaven-reaching Bridge.

"Your Highness, you have passed the trial of the successor in the auxiliary hall of the Icebound Temple, and you have become the sole heir of my old master, the Icebound God King," the Hall Spirit said to Ye Chen.

"In this main hall, my old master has prepared many inheritances for you. However, to obtain these things, you still need to walk on this Heaven-reaching Bridge and meet the requirements set by the old master."

"The Heaven-reaching Bridge is divided into countless sections, each tens of thousands of feet long. Your Highness must walk ten sections of this tens-of-thousands-feet-long bridge to obtain the first portion of the old master's inheritance, the Heavenly Saint Level inheritance."

"Only by walking over fifty sections of this tens-of-thousands-feet-long bridge can you obtain the old master's second portion of inheritance, the True God level inheritance."

"Only by walking over one hundred sections of this tens-of-thousands-feet-long bridge can you obtain the old master's final and complete inheritance, the God King Level inheritance!"

"If Your Highness cannot obtain all of the inheritance at once, I will keep these inheritances safe until Your Highness is powerful enough and has fulfilled the old master's requirements, only then will I bestow them upon you."

Hearing the Hall Spirit's words, Ye Chen nodded his head.

He understood that the Icebound God King had divided the inheritance into three parts, to be given according to the successor's strength.

Ye Chen also agreed with the Icebound God King's approach.

How precious is the inheritance of a God King.

If one does not have the sufficient strength and yet obtains such an inheritance, it might not be a blessing but a curse instead.

If it were to provoke the greed and plundering of countless people, one might get killed and have the inheritance snatched away before it even gets warm in their hands.

Only with great strength can one protect the inheritance and truly grow as a successor.

Thinking this, Ye Chen asked the Hall Spirit, "Senior Hall Spirit, I wonder how one should walk on this Heaven-reaching Bridge to reach the end. Surely there must be countless difficulties involved, and it can't be that just anyone can make it to the end."

The Hall Spirit shook its head. "I am not clear about how the master designed this Heaven-reaching Bridge. However, as there are three levels of inheritances, I'm afraid the further one goes, the more difficult it becomes. No matter how difficult, the walking of this Heaven-reaching Bridge is probably related to the three vital signs of Essence, Qi, and Spirit of a martial artist."

Ye Chen nodded again.

The Icebound God King designed the Heaven-reaching Bridge to observe the strength of the inheritors and bestow the corresponding inheritance.

The strength of the inheritors is, after all, reflected in their Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

The prerequisites of the Heaven-reaching Bridge are likely related to these three aspects as well.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen gained confidence.

His vital signs of Essence, Qi, and Spirit had already been tested in the cultivation site of Minor Pole Sky. Even compared to the youths from the Divine Kingdom, or descendants of powerful beings like the Little Provincial Princess, he was not inferior.

With his strength at that time, he was likely able to travel a great distance on this Heaven-reaching Bridge. Continue reading stories on My Virtual Library Empire

Moreover, now he had undergone the true cultivation and transformation of Minor Pole Sky. His current vital signs of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, even Fang Luo, the Little Provincial Princess and daughter of the East Territory King from the Star Divine Mountain, would not dare to claim strength superior to his.

Of course, Ye Chen's chances of succeeding on this Heaven-reaching Bridge were even greater!

"I wonder, to gain the assistance of the three mighty beings, Bing Yi, Bing Wu, and Bing Qi, how far must one travel on the Heaven-reaching Bridge."

What Ye Chen was most concerned about were the three True God level powerhouses in the main hall of the Icebound Temple.

Especially Bing Yi, who was a Nine-Tribulation True God!

She was Ye Chen's biggest trump card against the likely coming threat of the countless True Gods from the Flying Spirit Clan of the Minor Spirit Realm descending to the Lower Realm.

If he can't take Bing Yi out of the main hall of the Icebound Temple, that would truly be a problem!

With these thoughts, Ye Chen quickly inquired the Hall Spirit about the three True God level Icebound guardians.

He specifically asked about how to take Bing Yi with him.

Hearing Ye Chen's inquiry, the Hall Spirit said, "Your Highness, currently, Bing Yi, Bing Wu, and Bing Qi are watching Your Highness's attempt on the Heaven-reaching Bridge from within a special space in the Icebound Temple."

"As long as Your Highness can walk the second type required by the old master, fifty sections of tens-of-thousands-feet long bridge, and obtain the True God level inheritance, you can take Bing Wu and Bing Qi as your two assistants."

"As for the most powerful Bing Yi, she is a Nine-Tribulation True God and the number one warrior under the old master. She holds the old master's most precious God King Level inheritance. To take Bing Yi with you, Your Highness must walk one hundred sections of tens-of-thousands-feet long bridge and meet the old master's highest requirements, thus earning the qualifications for the God King Level inheritance!"

Ye Chen's heart clenched upon hearing the Hall Spirit's words.

He must complete the ultimate trial, walk the highest category of one hundred sections of tens-of-thousands-feet long bridge, and obtain the qualifications for the God King Level inheritance to take Bing Yi with him?

This left Ye Chen with no way back.

Ye Chen remembered that the nine Heavenly Saint Level Icebound guardians had said that Bing Qi was a Six-Tribulation True God, and Bing Wu a Seven-Tribulation True God.

The Flying Spirit Clan had Nine-Tribulation True Gods among them, along with countless other True Gods. Relying only on Bing Qi and Bing Wu might not be enough to fend off the possible descent of a great calamity from the True Gods of the Lower Realm.

Only with the Nine-Tribulation True God Bing Yi could there be hope to help Jiangya Zhenfeng and Mula Zhen Shen resist the crisis, to help himself and the entire Barbarian Continent withstand the calamity!

"It seems, I must meet the supreme demands of a God King."

Ye Chen clenched his fists and looked towards the endless expanse of the Heaven-reaching Bridge.

Subsequently, Ye Chen remembered the words the Hall Spirit had mentioned before, that Bing Yi, Bing Wu, and Bing Qi were watching him from a special space.

"Bing Yi, Bing Wu, Bing Qi, are all watching me challenge the Heaven-reaching Bridge from within the special space of the Icebound Temple's main hall?"

Ye Chen's gaze swept around, attempting to spot where Bing Yi, Bing Wu, and Bing Qi might be.

He also wanted to see these three True God level guardians for himself.

However, all was silent around him; aside from the Heaven-reaching Bridge under his feet and the endless starry sky, Ye Chen couldn't see any trace of them.

"Your Highness, you cannot see Bing Yi, Bing Wu, and Bing Qi from here," the Hall Spirit said with a gentle smile, noticing Ye Chen's actions. "Once you have crossed the Heaven-reaching Bridge, you will inevitably meet them."

Ye Chen nodded his head.

As Ye Chen nodded, in a hidden realm within the endless starry sky of the Icebound Temple, three individuals were watching Ye Chen.

These three, transformed from three True Spirit Sacred Beasts of True God level, were none other than Ye Chen's sought-after Bing Qi, Bing Wu, and Bing Yi!

Bing Qi, a Six-Tribulation True God, originally a True Spirit Sacred Beast "Three-Eyed Fire Qilin," had taken the form of a young man in fiery clothes.

Bing Wu, a Seven-Tribulation True God, initially the "Nine-headed Serpent Emperor," had transformed into a woman clad in blue robes, exuding a chilly aura.

And Bing Yi, a juvenile bird found by the Icebound God King on Star Divine Mountain, belonging to the "Ice Nether Divine Sparrow" clan, had now reached the Nine-Tribulations True God rank and had taken the shape of a girl in a pure white dress.

Even though Bing Yi was the youngest of the three True God-level guardians both in actual age and appearance, Bing Wu and Bing Qi showed the utmost respect in her presence!

After all, Bing Yi was a Nine-Tribulation True God, and the Icebound God King, who looked upon her as a daughter, highly valued her, nurturing and teaching her.

Had it not been for the fact that Bing Yi was unsuited to practice the techniques of the Icebound God King, he would have passed on his entire legacy to her.

Bing Yi's experiences naturally earned her immense respect from the other True God guardians!

At that moment, Bing Qi, Bing Wu, and Bing Yi, all in human form, were watching Ye Chen.

In their gaze lay expectation and curiosity towards Ye Chen.

They were curious how formidable this youth, who had qualified for their old master's legacy, really was.

They were even more eager to see whether this youth could perform prodigiously, eventually leading them to venture into more distant lands as their old master, the God King of the Icebound Temple, had done, traversing many star continents!

Meanwhile, Bing Yi, now in the guise of a girl in a snow-white dress, was also watching Ye Chen, "What does this new master want with me that he would have me leave the Icebound Temple with him?"

Though she was in this hidden space, she could still hear the conversation between Ye Chen and the Hall Spirit.

"New master, if you want to take me away and have me assist you, you'd better put on a good show!" Bing Yi watched Ye Chen, a smile flickering in her eyes as she murmured softly to herself.

At the base of the Heaven-reaching Bridge.

Of course, Ye Chen was unaware of Bing Yi's whisper or the anticipatory, curious gazes of the three True God-level guardians. He was now preparing to officially tackle the Heaven-reaching Bridge.

"The Heaven-reaching Bridge has countless sections, each tens of thousands of feet long."

"To walk, no matter what, I must traverse a hundred sections!"

Ye Chen took a deep breath and strode forward, climbing up the Heaven-reaching Bridge.

...

As Ye Chen entered the Icebound Temple and began to acquire the legacy of the Icebound God King.

Minor Spirit Realm, Flying Spirit Clan.

The Chixiao True God, who was heading towards the higher echelons of the Flying Spirit Clan, had now arrived outside one of the clan's Divine Mountains.

This Divine Mountain was only accessible for cultivation by members of the Flying Spirit Clan who were Six-Tribulation True Gods or above.

Even before his true form had been slain, as a Five-Tribulation True God, the Chixiao True God could not enter it.

This was the true stronghold of the Flying Spirit Clan!

The gathering place of the Flying Spirit Clan's upper echelon!

When the Chixiao True God arrived at the entrance of this Divine Mountain, he was immediately stopped by two guardians who were Five-Tribulation True Gods stationed at the entrance.

These two True Gods recognized Chixiao True God.

Seeing his hurried and annoyed expression, they asked, "Chixiao, what brings you here in such a state? Right, didn't your true form descend to the Lower Realm? How did it go, when are you coming back?"

When asked about the situation of his true form, the Chixiao True God, remembering that his Five-Tribulation True God form had been slain by Ye Chen and his companions, was consumed with rage. He addressed the two True Gods guarding the entrance to the Divine Mountain, "My true form has been destroyed in the Lower Realm!"

"I've also uncovered a huge secret in the Lower Realm. Xuanxu, Xuane, you two need to help me quickly, go and ask to see the old clan chief. I have very important matters to report to him!"
