Chapter 214 Princess Pingyang
Du Zizhan was too upright and rigid, and did not seem like a considerate person.
Qin Zhongshan is too wicked, with a demonic aura, and is definitely not a good match for him.
Blood Eight Desolations was a completely unruly and reckless man, and Princess Pingyang, born into royalty, naturally disliked his style.
As for the rest of the people, there were monks and Taoists, some of whom were not good-looking, and others who were not skilled enough. In short, Princess Pingyang saw them all as having their own shortcomings.
Only Lin Fei, who stepped forward at this moment, possessed not only a handsome appearance but also an extraordinary demeanor and refined manner. He was also a top-ranked expert on the Wind and Cloud Ranking. Not to mention, he also had the added advantage of being a prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
It should be noted that, compared to the Liu family of Northern Han, the royal family of Southern Tang, who wielded the Xuanyuan Sword, undoubtedly possessed a more aristocratic air in the eyes of the world.
It's no wonder that Princess Pingyang immediately had strange thoughts upon hearing Xue Bahuang's words.
"This guy is really good-looking. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he became my consort." The more Princess Pingyang looked at Lin Fei, the more pleasing he seemed to her, and she couldn't help but stare at him for a while.
……
However, Lin Fei was completely unaware of Princess Pingyang's gaze from afar. His mind was entirely focused on the Dragon Soul Stone Carving in front of him.
For Lin Fei, surpassing Xue Bahuang, or even Qin Zhongshan and Du Zizhan, was a slim chance. The reason he came up was precisely as Xiang Boyue had told him: he wanted to examine his obsessions and inner demons, paving the way for his future cultivation.
"Ready? Then I shall begin!" Emperor Liu Xun of Han reminded him. Lin Fei nodded, and Liu Xun then reached out and slapped the Dragon Soul Stone Carving.
Immediately, a red light emanated from the Dragon Soul Stone Carving, completely enveloping Lin Fei.
Lin Fei's expression suddenly became very strange, not because his consciousness had been sucked into the illusion space by the Dragon Soul Stone Carving, but because a system notification sounded in his mind.
"Warning! Warning! An unknown energy has invaded the host's mind. The system is suspected of being exposed and is consuming merit points to shield the host!"
"Warning! Warning! An unknown energy has invaded the host's mind. The system is suspected of being exposed and is consuming merit points to shield the host!"
"Warning! Warning! An unknown energy has invaded the host's mind. The system is suspected of being exposed and is consuming merit points to shield the host!"
……
The system notification kept ringing in Lin Fei's mind for a long time before finally stopping. Lin Fei's expression grew increasingly strange.
The power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving was actually automatically blocked by the system on Lin Fei's body?
Even Lin Fei himself had never imagined such a situation.
Because the system detected that the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving posed a certain threat to the system itself, the system automatically consumed energy to completely shield the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving.
Unlike Qin Zhongshan, who used powerful demonic energy to fight the Dragon Soul Stone Carving, and unlike Du Zizhan, whose mind was free of distractions and whose righteous energy prevented illusions from arising, Lin Fei was unaffected by the Dragon Soul Stone Carving entirely because of the system's cheat-like effect.
The Dragon Soul Stone Carving was completely useless to Lin Fei, just like it had been to Qin Zhongshan and Du Zizhan before.
"This..." Emperor Liu Xun of Han, standing beside the Dragon Soul Stone Carving, was completely stunned. Qin Zhongshan and Du Zizhan were both among the top ten on the Wind and Cloud Ranking; one was a demonic emperor of a chaotic era, exuding a menacing aura; the other was a successor of a benevolent sage, with an open and honest heart. It was understandable that they could contend with the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving. How could someone at the fifth level of the cultivation realm, ranked only in the twentieth tier on the Wind and Cloud Ranking, now be able to contend with the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving?
Emperor Liu Xun of Han even suspected that there might be something wrong with the Dragon Soul Stone Carving itself, which would explain why three people were able to contend with its power in a single day.
The red light emanating from the dragon soul stone carving enveloped Lin Fei for a moment before quickly retreating, seemingly terrified of him. Even the evil dragon image on the carving shrank considerably, as if afraid of Lin Fei's power and refusing to emerge from the carving.
Lin Fei knew that it was because of the system's power that the dragon soul within the stone tablet was frightened. However, others were unaware of this and thought that this kid really had some ability, that even the power of the dragon soul stone carving dared not approach.
"This..." Xue Bahuang stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief: "How did this kid do that? Now I can't even get the Six Ding Six Jia Cauldron!"
He thought that even with Du Zizhan and Qin Zhongshan ahead of him, as long as Xiang Boyue didn't go up, he could at least secure third place and take the Six Ding Six Jia Cauldron. He never expected that Lin Fei, such a monster, would suddenly appear. It seemed that he was on par with Du Zizhan, and even performed better than Qin Zhongshan.
"I never expected him to have such skills!" Xiang Boyue exclaimed repeatedly from below. He had only intended for Lin Fei to give it a try. He never expected Lin Fei to perform so well; it was truly beyond his expectations.
"Damn it, damn it!" Qin Zhongshan was so angry that he even had murderous thoughts. His chest heaved as he thought angrily, "Whether it's Du Zizhan or that brat Li Longyuan, one day I will personally take your heads!"
……
"Um, Your Majesty, did I pass the test?" Lin Fei asked, seeing that Emperor Liu Xun was still somewhat dazed.
"Passed! Passed!" Emperor Liu Xun of Han finally came to his senses and announced loudly, "Li Longyuan of Southern Tang has passed the test of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving!"
The reason why the Han Emperor was stunned was that he had no idea how Lin Fei was able to withstand the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving.
Previously, Qin Zhongshan suppressed the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving with demonic energy. Du Zizhan, on the other hand, prevented the Dragon Soul Stone Carving from creating an illusion because he was originally open-minded. However, Lin Fei did something that made the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving seem to fear him greatly.
It should be noted that the dragon soul sealed within this dragon soul stone carving is the demonic dragon soul that once fought against Emperor Gaozu of Northern Han. Even if Emperor Liu Xun of Han racked his brains, he couldn't fathom how Lin Fei had managed to make this demonic dragon soul feel fear.
The current situation is quite clear: among the three who passed the test, Qin Zhongshan, Du Zizhan, and Lin Fei are undoubtedly the most outstanding.
Because only the three of them were able to withstand the power of the Dragon Soul Stone Carving and were not pulled into the illusion created by the Dragon Soul Stone Carving.
The three rewards prepared this time will be awarded to these three people.
Just then, Princess Pingyang, who was watching from a distance, suddenly spoke up.
