Chapter 433: Chapter 416: The Real Reward"That’s natural. Is there something special about this key?" Seeing the middle-aged man’s expression, Mu Can knew that this key was definitely not ordinary and might involve some special secret. "Rubbish, you are the first Cultivator to get this key. It has to be said, both your strength and luck are outrageously good," the middle-aged man also sighed with emotion. In his view, obtaining this key was almost an impossible task. He had once attempted to challenge the Nine Heavenly Pillars but was stopped at the eighth pillar by the Big Willow Tree. The strength of that willow was simply too abnormal; thousands of willow branches hanging down, leaving no gaps in its defense, and when those branches swayed, they were like Divine Weapons, even able to shatter the Spiritual Power Shield on his body. "The first?" Although Mu Can knew challenging the Nine Heavenly Pillars was not easy, he never imagined that he would be the first person to overcome the Nine Heavenly Pillars. "There’s only one of this key, what do you think?" The middle-aged man looked at Mu Can with a complex expression. "Can you let me down now?" He was still suspended in mid-air, which felt somewhat awkward. "Sure." Mu Can casually let him down. After all, in his own small world, every single move was under his control. "Can you tell me how did you get past the Big Willow Tree in the eighth Heavenly Pillar?" The middle-aged man couldn’t forget the scene when he went to challenge the Heavenly Pillar with great enthusiasm, only to be taught a lesson by the Big Willow Tree. "That Big Willow Tree? I sealed it and then directly absorbed it," said Mu Can nonchalantly. "Woof! Maybe you will meet it again in the future," Wang Cai spoke from the side. At this moment, that Big Willow Tree was in this space; anyway, the middle-aged man certainly couldn’t leave, so there would definitely be a chance to meet again. "Meet it? How can I meet it—my goodness, why did you bring them all here?" The middle-aged man mumbled confusedly, then suddenly noticed several colossal creatures running towards him—that was the Guardian Beast from within the Heavenly Pillars. The middle-aged man felt like his brain suddenly wasn’t working quite right. He was clearly brought into a New World by Mu Can, so how could he encounter the Guardian Beast from within the Heavenly Pillars here? "I must be crazy," the middle-aged man rubbed his eyes, this time genuinely in disbelief. "Hahaha, look at him, he doesn’t look like someone from the Void Level at all." Wang Cai laughed heartily looking at the middle-aged man’s actions. Void Level, though not very remarkable in the Supreme Interface, was absolutely a top-level master in the Three Realms. Standing at the pinnacle of the Cultivation circle, such a person began to doubt his own eyes, you can imagine how big a shock the scene just now was to him. "My god, what in the world is going on?" The middle-aged man muttered to himself. What he saw was a Big Willow Tree, running towards this place with striding legs. Beside the Big Willow Tree, a smaller tree was also running, but due to its short legs, it had to take four or five steps to catch up for every step the Big Willow Tree took. Moreover, the middle-aged man noticed that the running tree in front of him seemed incredibly familiar. It seemed, it seemed to resemble the tree that had beaten him up before. I must be seeing things; that tree should still be in the Heavenly Pillar Space, how could it appear here. On the side, Wang Cai was already laughing so hard it sounded like the squeals of a pig, and even Mu Can was smiling. They could tell that this middle-aged man had recognized the creatures converging here; they were all Guardian Beasts from within the Heavenly Pillars. "You’re not seeing wrong, these creatures you recognize are indeed the Guardian Beasts from within the Heavenly Pillars. As for why they appear here, you’ll have to ask him," Wang Cai looked at the middle-aged man and said. "You can’t mean you’ve taken down the entire Heavenly Pillar Space during the trial?" The middle-aged man’s complexion turned pale, then he said. Thinking about it carefully, there was indeed a possibility, even he was able to be transferred to this place, let alone those Guardian Beasts that seemed slightly weaker. "Well, seems like that really is the case." The middle-aged man then saw this although young, outrageously strong Cultivator scratching his head with an embarrassed look. "You guys..." The middle-aged man found he was almost at a loss for words; the impact Mu Can and Wang Cai gave him was just too great. Those several Heavenly Pillars, who knows how much effort the Creator of Tongshen Mountain put into them, it didn’t stop him from knowing the preciousness of those Heavenly Pillars. Even the Guardian Beasts placed inside, were definitely not ordinary creatures. Mu Can certainly knew this point. Not only did he know this, but he also understood that the arrival of creatures from these Heavenly Pillars had taken the new world a step further in evolution, perfecting its laws and stabilizing its space. According to this development, someday, this small world that belonged to him would evolve into a true interface, and by then, Mu Can would be the master of this interface, the Overlord of the Interface. "Now, let’s talk about the reward," Mu Can said, looking at the middle-aged man with unspoken words. The middle-aged man would probably live a long time in this world and would be restricted in his cultivation while here. Otherwise, Mu Can couldn’t guarantee the safety of the simpletons like Wang Cai and the little ones. At the Void Level in this world, he was essentially an existence that could be termed as a BOSS. "The reward, the reward is very simple, haven’t you got it already?" the middle-aged man slowly came back to his senses and spoke. "Got it already? Are you talking about the creatures sealed within these Heavenly Pillars?" Mu Can was confused by what the middle-aged man said. What exactly was the so-called reward? If it truly were these sealed creatures, what did that have to do with breaking through to the Void Level? However, Mu Can was also a cultivator with rich experience and quickly realized what the middle-aged man meant. "Are you saying? The so-called ultimate reward is Tongshen Mountain?" Mu Can found his own voice trembling as he spoke. "You are right," the middle-aged man said, looking at Mu Can with a complex expression. If it weren’t for being able to confirm Mu Can’s identity, he would have imprisoned him in a secluded space where he would never see the light of day, rather than give Mu Can the ultimate reward. But according to the rules set previously, anyone who could break through the Nine Heavenly Pillars, in the end, could obtain ownership of the entire Tongshen Mountain without facing the challenge. That’s why he reacted so strongly when he saw the key Mu Can was holding. "Why?" Mu Can felt his brain wasn’t functioning well enough. Why would there be such a rule? If the final reward he received was some kind of opportunity that would allow him to break through, he could understand, but to give him the entire Tongshen Mountain, what was this about? Even Mu Can, who owned the most precious treasure, the Reincarnation Pearl, in this world, found it somewhat incomprehensible. "It’s simple. This space is a land of inheritance, and the purpose is to select a cultivator who can break through and pierce the Nine Heavenly Pillars to accept the inheritance," the middle-aged man said, looking at Mu Can with a complex expression. If Mu Can indeed took possession of Tongshen Mountain, then everything inside, including him, would become Mu Can’s subordinates. "The one who established Tongshen Mountain is truly extraordinary," Wang Cai felt a newfound respect for that person. Such a large inheritance land, even in the Supreme Interface, was rare. To just give it away like that... "And after selecting the cultivator who can break through the Nine Heavenly Pillars?" Mu Can asked. Opportunities usually come with responsibilities, and Mu Can didn’t believe someone would give him such a great Tongshen Mountain for nothing. But he did have to admit, Mu Can was indeed tempted. If he could move the entire Tongshen Mountain to this new world, that feeling would be simply incredible. "Responsibility, indeed there are responsibilities. Have you heard of the outer realm demons?" the middle-aged man looked at Mu Can surprisingly, seeing that he could remain so calm upon learning he could get such a place of inheritance and even asked what duties he would need to fulfill. The young man was indeed extraordinary, no wonder he could pass the test of the Nine Heavenly Pillars. "Demons from the outer realm? That’s the first I’ve heard of it from you." Mu Can looked helpless, as he could not forget the moment when he first met the middle-aged man, how fierce he had been, and wasn’t it exactly this ’demons from the outer realm’ that he was screaming about? "The demons from the outer realm truly exist, and when they come swarming back one day, the entire Three Realms will fall into destruction," the middle-aged man continued without looking at Mu Can’s strange expression. These demons from the outer realm were creatures that invaded from other interfaces, they fed on the spiritual power within the interfaces, and cultivators who gathered endless spiritual power in their bodies were their favorite food. Much like a house guy likes chips, cultivators with higher cultivation levels were more appealing to them. "To think of cultivators as snacks to eat..." Mu Can shivered, why did it sound to him that these demons from the outer realm felt like the real Demon Clan? "Demon Clan? The Demon Clan within the Three Realms actually has no fundamental difference from the Immortal and Mortal Worlds, essentially they are the same. But the demons from the outer realm are different, they are true destroyers," the middle-aged man clarified upon hearing Mu Can’s confusion. "So you’re saying, the task of defeating the demons from the outer realm falls on me?" Mu Can wasn’t foolish. If that wasn’t the case, why would the middle-aged man tell him about the demons from the outer realm? "No, if the demons from the outer realm invade again, I hope you will be able to take as many people away as possible, to leave enough seeds for survival for the Three Realms," the middle-aged man replied. It turned out, what he wanted Mu Can to do wasn’t to defeat any demons from the outer realm or defend the Three Realms, but on the day of the invasion, to save as many people as possible. The truth of the matter turned out to be like this.
