Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

Yang Lujia was secretly pleased in his heart.

He had achieved something again!

Something that was related to a father—who he was aiming to surpass!

Now, with these tests coming into being and him passing them was not a miracle, it spoke of the talent that he truly possessed. To say he was a monstrous fellow would become an understatement. This kind of cultivation and person, at such a young age, actually cultivated to such a height that everyone in this realm could only look up to.

"Seniors, I wonder what my father had left for me?" Yang Lujia asked, his eyes darting at Red Qilin and Black Tortoise. Among the existences of the five divine beasts, these two beasts are the most powerful and the most mysterious.

The Red Qilin's offensive attacks were extremely monstrous. On the other hand, the Black Tortoise's defensive measures were more than what he could imagine.

He would naturally give them the respect they deserved. If these figures' real bodies were here, he would have already trembled—his will slightly wavering or would even crumble under their pressure. However, since they were just projections of their souls from their bodies, a fragment of their real souls, they could not unleash the power that their soul's real prowess had at all—especially a power that had surpassed what Da Shikong could currently accommodate.

There was a limit to how high the sky could be. Even the universe had an end somewhere else.

Yang Lujia naturally understood these matters.

Sighing, the Red Qilin looked at Yang Lujia. He, the esteemed Red Qilin, never believed that there was no more than one man, other than Yang Jinhai, who would surpass their strength as beasts who had been standing long ago in the apex. Of course, he knew that Yang Jinhai would have a son sooner or later and even thought that his son's talent would only be a notch higher than Yang Jinhai's.

He didn't think it would actually be this monstrous. Even Yang Jinhai in the past might not be able to pass those rigorous tests that challenged Yang Lujia's aspects.

"Your father really left something, but it's not something that we, just mere remnant souls of our true body could see through. The seal that your father placed in that box that he left before he set off was very strong. Due to curiosity, Little White tried to urge himself and tried to open the box with his strength but to no avail. Even the soul of Little White that time almost faded and had barely recovered after several years."

It was only then they realized that the seal also contained a tiny bit of His Highness Yang Jinhai's cautiousness.

Hearing this from the Red Qilin's mouth, the White Tiger bared his fangs and harrumphed to the side as though that incident was not something special. He then went back to sleeping on top of the Red Qilin's back.

Yang Lujia did not seem too shocked. From the rained praises coming from these divine beasts before, about his father's talent and prowess. It was to his understanding that his father was akin to a godlike existence in the eyes of these divine beasts.

How could one make these proud divine beasts devote themselves and wholeheartedly submit to his father? They were existences that towered above all other beasts that exist under the heavens.

He was only staring at the seemingly small box in the Red Qilin's palm. However, because the Red Qilin was very large, they knew that this box was even greater than Yang Lujia. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

"Is that the thing that father left for me, senior?" Yang Lujia respectfully asked, but his eyes revealed a glint. "Can this junior take a look at it now?"

"Of course, of course," the Red Qilin happily complied and threw the box in front of Yang Lujia. "This black had been with me for several years that I already forgot how to count. The matter inside the black box, we, the five divine beasts would not interfere. Hence, we will now go to our original posts. As for whether you want to extract the formation by bringing us four with you, we will naturally have no objections anymore. Starting today, you have already become our new master!"

With that, the five of them, even without the exception of the Black Tortoise, knelt on the ground with a loud thud, the space around the core of the formation trembling under their posture. Even Yang Lujia was quite amazed by the strength of these five remnant souls. However, he was not concerned about them. He was more concerned about the thing that his father left for him.

Could it be some treasure?

Could it be something that would be useful to him in order to not die when he would brave dangerous places or situations in the future?

His thirst to know things made him want to open the box with his blood.

As soon as the divine beasts saw that Yang Lujia already had the intention to drop of blood on the large box, they immediately understood and tactfully left the place.

"Master, Your Highness, if you want to go inside the formation, you can just enter disregarding everything. With Your Highness' strength in terms of the path of formations, Little Red is very confident. I suppose Your Highness has already learned the ins and outs of the formation, so there is no need to say anything to Your Highness anymore. Farewell! If you want to summon us, you can just do so by stimulating the formation!"

When Yang Lujia was about to drop his blood on the black box, he was stunned when he heard the words of the Red Qilin.

'What the hell are you saying? What's the purpose of saying all those things you just said then if they do not even count as something important to me?'

Yang Lujia's thoughts went that way. However, he still chose to concentrate on what his father had left in store for him—letting these five divine beasts wait for his existence to come—for a very long time already.

When his drop of blood finally touched the surface of the black box, rules of space and time rippled—the box—like an old well that had not been opened to the public for the past several years. The rules of space and time were like tunes of music singing in the air, amazing to the eyes of someone who had watched the process from the beginning.

Space and time intertwined like they were twins or close friends. On the other hand, a projection slowly appeared. This projection showed a man who seemed to be as young as him in terms of appearance. Moreover, Yang Lujia felt that this man was very unfathomable—that he could not measure his depths at all.

If the divine beasts would be compared to him, this man was actually more powerful and undiscernible to him. What shocked him the most, though, were these man's features—extremely familiar features.

His face could topple every woman's skirt and voluntarily offer themselves to him.

"Could this be father?" Yang Lujia's shock was not any better when it was the first he saw the five divine beasts. "He looks like a young man like me. I thought he would be older."

But he was not an idiot. To have those five beasts acknowledge his father's talent, it was already enough for him to believe that his father truly had the capital to achieve something remarkable at his young age.

Yang Lujia still remembered that flower that bore the strongest poison in this realm. Its poison was extremely powerful that it made him feel dread. Being able to survive that ordeal, even without the knowledge that this poison was very strong, he knew that it would not be an easy feat. Fortunately for him, he had received guidance and was told that it was the strongest poison, so he had long kept up his guard.

"If you're now seeing me, I suppose that you have passed all the tests that I prepared for you," a majestic voice echoed that it even made Yang Lujia's heart tremble.

"This voice… why did it sound so familiar?"

Yang Lujia tried to recall where he had heard of such a voice in the past, but he could not remember anything. Moreover, it felt like in the depths of his heart, there was actually some fear left that was about to sprout. Just hearing this voice made him feel jittery.

"Wait…" Yang Lujia's eyes turned wide as he looked at the man's face again. "No… why was there such a difference in the facial feature… but could it be… him?"
