[The third update is delivered. Although very tired, Xiao Gou is very happy because of the enthusiastic support from brothers and sisters, sincerely thank you all!]

The combat power of the old man from the Ding Sect is undeniably strong, but even with such powerful strength, he couldn't break open the Light Screen Formation at the third passage entrance. Instead, he was bounced back and heavily fell to the ground, suffering serious injuries once again.

However, when the old man with the pipe made his move, he effortlessly broke open the powerful Light Screen Formation, startling everyone present, especially Ye Tianchen, who had already seen the fundamental method used by the old man with the pipe to break this strong formation.

It turned out that, as the old man with the pipe poured his ash into his palm, he had already gathered powerful Martial Arts True Qi, mixing it into the ash on his palm. As a result, when this ash was attached to the Light Screen Formation, it gradually separated the complex runes on the Light Screen Formation, preventing them from exerting their power, allowing the old man with the pipe to smoothly break open this Light Screen Formation.

Of course, this doesn't mean the combat power of the old man with the pipe is certainly higher than the old man from the Ding Sect. The deployment and dismantling of formations involves a method, an insight; finding the right way doesn't necessarily require supreme strength to break a powerful formation. Ordinary martial artists can also achieve this, which is where the strengths and weaknesses of formations lie.

"This formation is very strong, I can only maintain it for a quarter of an hour. If you don't want to enter, don't be forced!" At this time, the voice of the old man with the pipe came out, and everyone heard it.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

The old man from the Ding Sect, the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family, along with the Wudao Saint Child all entered first. Left behind were the veiled woman and Ye Tianchen, seemingly by coincidence. Ye Tianchen smiled calmly and said, "I'm not in a hurry to go in, because whether or not I can obtain the Taishi family inheritance doesn't matter to me. What about you?"

"Real inheritance is not so easy to obtain, you underestimate the Taishi family!" The veiled woman said with a disdainful smile.

"Oh? Do you understand the Taishi family well? What's the relation?" Ye Tianchen couldn't help but ask tentatively.

"You don't need to know too much. Some things, if you know, are destined to cost your life." The veiled woman responded coldly.

"Really? My biggest flaw is curiosity, I like adventure, I like to learn some secrets, and as for life and death, they are in my hands!" Ye Tianchen still smiled as he spoke.

The veiled woman glanced at Ye Tianchen without saying much more and suddenly disappeared into the Light Screen Formation. Ye Tianchen frowned slightly; he always felt this veiled woman was not ordinary, as if she knew much more about the Taishi family than any of them. Could the veiled woman have some relation with the Taishi family? Although he couldn't see her appearance, the aura emanating from her, suggested she was about the same age as him, just in her twenties, how could she know so much about the Taishi family's secrets?

After thinking briefly, Ye Tianchen also flashed into the Light Screen Formation. At the moment he entered, the ash on the Light Screen Formation disappeared, and various runes once again filled the entire Light Screen Formation. The strength of the pipe-smoking old man was undeniable, but even with his unfathomable method, he could only open a gap for a moment and could not truly dismantle this Light Screen Formation, proving the profound and strong foundation of the Taishi family.

Ye Tianchen entered the third passage, and as a white light flashed before his eyes, he furrowed his brows upon seeing things clearly. Before him appeared a desolate grassland, and on the grassland, besides the person-high weeds, were scattered piles of stones everywhere, looking extremely barren, unlike a place where strong inheritances would be left behind. Instead, it gave off a sense of desolation and bleakness.

"Is this the place the Taishi family left with strong inheritances?" Ye Tianchen couldn't help but ask skeptically to himself.

"I don't know; do you see that huge stele in the middle? It's surrounded by mist, no matter what method is used, it seems impossible to see what is engraved on the big stele. Perhaps, there exists some powerful force that can block the divine thought of martial artists and some secret techniques. To see clearly what is engraved on the huge stele, one must get close to it!" The Wudao Saint Child standing next to Ye Tianchen said.

"I'm afraid it's not that easily approachable, right?" Ye Tianchen glanced at the Wudao Saint Child and asked.

"Yes, there seems to be a very strange formation guarding the central stele, making it impossible for anyone to approach it." The Wudao Saint Child nodded and said.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen, the old man with the pipe, the veiled woman, the Wudao Saint Child, the old man from the Ding Sect, and the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family all entered the third passage, and the scene in the third passage was a desolate grassland. Besides waist-deep grass, there were only stone piles, and at the very center of the grassland was a giant stele, towering into the sky, its end unseen, and from beginning to end enveloped in a mist. To see what was recorded on it, one must approach this giant stele, but trying to get close to this giant stele is not that easy.

The old man with the pipe, the old man from the Ding Sect, and the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family all stood at the front, gazing at the chaotic stone pile. None acted rashly because everyone knew that the Taishi family once had the strongest inheritance on Penglai Immortal Island. Such an inheritance is not easy for outsiders to acquire, and even a fool could guess that the giant stele wouldn't be easy to approach. Furthermore, even approaching it could involve other major dangers.

"Everyone, are we acting alone or rushing together into the chaotic stone pile, striving to get closer to the giant stele?" the old man with the pipe asked.

"What, do you want to obtain the Taishi family's legacy and need our help?" The old codger from the Tripod sect said sarcastically.

"I want to obtain it, don't you?" The old man with the pipe replied disdainfully.

"I want to obtain it, but not in the way you do..." The middle-aged man from the Xinyang family said forcefully.

Pa!

Just as the Xinyang family man's words fell, a slap of palm wind struck towards him, and Ye Tianchen was taken aback. The one who struck was the veiled woman. Though she was cold-hearted, she hadn't moved before but now slapped towards the Xinyang family man with great force, as if intent to kill him with one blow.

Bang!

It must be said, the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family had a strong Mid-stage Martial Saint cultivation and reacted quickly, turning around to deliver a punch at the veiled woman.

Two powerful Slaughter Auras collided and surprisingly tied, evenly matched. This startled everyone else; though the veiled woman was younger and hadn't cultivated as long as the Xinyang family man, she was not disadvantaged, showcasing her extraordinary talent. Even the middle-aged man from the Xinyang family was stunned, condensed a strong Qi Force in his right hand, and slashed at the veiled woman, while she also was no weaker, a Slaughter Aura shot from her brow to meet his attack.

Bongdong!

With a muffled sound, the figures of the veiled woman and the Xinyang family middle-aged man separated, both looking coldly at each other, emitting strong killing intent, so powerful that no one dared approach. The Xinyang family man didn't expect the veiled woman would dare to strike him, and sneered fiercely, saying: "You dare to make a move on me, seems you're tired of living!"

"Spare me the attitude, you rely on the many Xinyang family experts outside and act arrogant, wanting to monopolize the Taishi family's legacy. You don't have the right to speak here, if you dare to clamor again, I don't mind killing you here, I don't believe I won't have a chance to escape!" The veiled woman said with domineering intent.

"You... hmph, little girl, I'll make you regret this." The middle-aged man of the Xinyang family, shaking with anger, yelled.

"Then shut up, dare to clamor again, and I'll kill you!" The veiled woman said fiercely.

"Fine, fine, I'll kill you here and show you the powerful capital of our Xinyang family!" The Xinyang family man, overwhelmed with Vicious Aura, seemed genuinely provoked, intent to kill.

The veiled woman didn't back down, Martial Arts True Qi surged in both palms, coldly saying: "Then let's fight, I'm not afraid of you."

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Both figures charged at each other with immense power, intending to fight to the death, everyone else retreated to the side, knowing a battle between two Mid-stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm experts could be catastrophic.

Swish!

Pa!

Bang!

Suddenly, as the veiled woman struck a palm and the Xinyang family man delivered a killing punch, a figure appeared between them - it was Ye Tianchen. Ye stood still without resorting to any Martial Arts True Qi for protection or exhibiting Martial Arts Divine Skill, just standing there, letting their Slaughter Aura strike him.

Bongdong!

A loud sound occurred, but the Slaughter Aura from both the veiled woman and the Xinyang family middle-aged man were completely blocked and bounced off by Ye Tianchen's physical body. Everyone was greatly shocked, witnessing such formidable Physical Body Power for the first time, especially the Wudao Saint Child, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes as he glanced at Ye Tianchen...
