When Tang Li Xue was undergoing the second trial in the grand Crystal Palace Tomb and fighting against the crystal puppets, the core disciples of Five Virtuous Sects finally managed to reach the top of Cang Yang Mountain.

One of the young girls from White Crane Sect gnashed her teeth in anger and complained: "This is all because of that d.a.m.ned thief! If not for her, we would already enter Inheritance Ground Tablet since a few days ago!"

"That is right! She even dares to steal all of our Ancient Jade Emblems! Next time we meet that d.a.m.ned thief, we must definitely kill her at all cost!" One of the core disciples from the Oracle Mountain Sect also added with an angry tone.

"All right, that is enough! Our time is quite limited, so we should quickly pick the people that will enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet." Meng Ying coldly said with a warning tone.

There were only fifty Ancient Jade Emblems in total, but Tang Li Xue herself brought more than fifteen Ancient Jade Emblems with her when she entered the Inheritance Ground Tablet.

So, there were only more than thirty Ancient Jade Emblems left that could be used as the key to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.

After working so hard in these few days by s.n.a.t.c.hing the Ancient Jade Emblems from other cultivators that climbed the staircase to reach the top of Cang Yang Mountain, the core disciples from both the White Crane Sect and Oracle Mountain Sect finally managed to collect some Ancient Jade Emblems to make up their loss.

Of course, the number of Ancient Jade Emblems was still not enough for all of them to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet, so they could only pick a few of them to enter there.

Among the groups of core disciples from the three Virtuous Sects here, only the Immortal Sword Sect's group was not affected since Tang Li Xue did not take their Ancient Jade Emblems, so all of them could enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.

The White Crane Sect has five Ancient Jade Emblems, so Meng Ying picked another four of her comrades to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet with her.

The Oracle Mountain Sect has seven Ancient Jade Emblems since they were the master of Formation, they could easily trap many cultivators at once with the formation and s.n.a.t.c.hed their Ancient Jade Emblems.

The Oracle Mountain Sect has more Ancient Jade Emblems than White Crane Sect since they were proficient in the formation. They could easily trap many cultivators at once with the formation and s.n.a.t.c.hed their Ancient Jade Emblems.

The Oracle Mountain Sect has seven Ancient Jade Emblems.

Beiming Chu, the leader of core disciples from the Oracle Mountain Sect, picked six of his comrades to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet with him.

Meanwhile, there were sixteen core disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, including Ye Zhen, so all of them would enter Inheritance Ground Tablet since they managed to collect sixteen Ancient Jade Emblems.

There were still a few Ancient Jade Emblems left out there, but they did not have any more patience to search for them since the Inheritance Ground Tablet would only open for one month while they were already wasting several days of those precious time.

After choosing the people who will enter the Inheritance Ground Tablet, the respective leader of the three core disciples from three Virtuous Sects took out the map from their spatial ring.

If Tang Li Xue saw this map, she would immediately realize that this map was actually the map of Inheritance Ground Tablet.

The core disciples from Five Virtuous Sects already entered this Inheritance Ground Tablet many times before, so of course, they have the map of it.

But the map was only roughly sketched, and there were still many places that remain unexplored until now.

The reason these three leaders took out their respective maps was to divide the area they wanted to explore.

After debating for an hour or so, they finally finished a.s.signing the area they wanted to explore, then they started to prepare themselves to enter Inheritance Ground Tablet.

Since they would be teleported randomly after they entered Inheritance Ground Tablet, they must set some kind of way to detect and communicate with the people from their respective groups.

"If you find that d.a.m.ned thief, do not kill her immediately. Just catch her first. I want to torture her so badly until she begs for me to kill her!" Meng Ying told Ye Zhen and Beiming Chu with a tone filled with murderous intent.

Beiming Chu nodded his head without any hesitation, but Ye Zhen pretended to be in deep thought and ignored Meng Ying's words.

Then all of them took their respective Ancient Jade Emblems and held them up toward the gigantic ancient stone tablet.

WEEEEEEENGGG~!!!

The gigantic ancient stone tablet on the top of Cang Yang Mountain shone brightly, and it suddenly pulled all the people who were holding Ancient Jade Emblem.

After defeating the third crystal puppet, Tang Li Xue immediately took out several talismans from her s.p.a.ce Pouch.

She predicted that the next crystal puppet should be even more powerful than the previous three crystal puppets, so she decided to improve her strength a bit by using several buff Talismans on herself such as [Talisman of Lightning Speed +3], [Talisman of Wind Step +3], [Talisman of Giant Strength +3], [Talisman of Greater Force +3], and so on.

She also used [Talisman of Regeneration +3] to recover her current rather serious injuries.

Since her [High-Speed Regeneration] skill was sealed along with all of her skills and divine abilities in this Inheritance Ground Tablet, she could only rely on this

[Talisman of Regeneration +3] to cure her injuries.

After a few moments, the fourth crystal puppet jumped out from the last set of mysterious ancient murals engraved on the crystal wall.

Tang Li Xue took a deep breath as she raised her vigilance to the maximum while muttered: "This crystal puppet should be the last one I must defeat to pa.s.s this second trial. I hope this crystal puppet is not too troublesome to deal with..."

But all of a sudden, the fourth crystal puppet vanished from Tang Li Xue's view…

Tang Li Xue's heart grew cold in that instant, and a terrible premonition flooded her mind.

Without having any time to think, Tang Li Xue's reflex kicked in a flash, and her slender body moved very swiftly by itself.

She nimbly somersaulted backward, and right at that time when her body was still hanging horizontally on the mid-air, something cold flashed a few millimeters above her nose and cut several strands of her silky silver front hairs.

SWIIIIFFFTT~!!!

When the cold wind blew her face, Tang Li Xue's heart was palpitating in intense fear.

If she moved too late for even 0.01 second, her head would probably fly off from her neck by now!

After Tang Li Xue landed back gracefully on the ground, she quickly looked around to find that the fourth crystal puppet already stood leisurely behind her with its crystal sword still inside the sheath.

CRACK… KLACK…

Tang Li Xue's fox mask and her black hood were cut in two, then fell onto the ground, revealing her peerless stunning beautiful face and a pair of silver fox ears on the top of her head.

Tang Li Xue gulped her saliva to calm down her nervousness and fright, but her forehead and back were still drenched with her cold sweat.

Forget about defeating this fourth crystal puppet, she could not even see its movement at all!

Tang Li Xue really wanted to curse the owner of this Crystal Palace Tomb with all of the profanities words she knew right now.

'd.a.m.n it! Is he really looking for a successor for his inheritance?! I bet he just wants to kill everyone that tries to take his inheritance, right?! What a bast*rd?!' Tang Li Xue groaned in anger.

Tang Li Xue quickly dashed toward the mysterious ancient murals where this fourth crystal puppet came out from.

Without even a slight chance of winning, she could only hope this cheat sheet… err... I mean these ancient murals could give her a clue in defeating the fourth crystal puppet.

But the fourth crystal puppet would not let Tang Li Xue do whatever she liked so easily, it calmly touched the hilt of its crystal sword, and its figure vanished once again.

Tang Li Xue did not even have any time to take a glance at the mysterious ancient murals before she saw the fourth crystal puppet vanished from where it stood again.

Tang Li Xue could only avoid the fourth crystal puppet's first attack because of her luck, so she did not dare to gamble with her life and try to dodge it for the second time.

She rather chose to block this second attack, so she decided to raise both of her hands and put them in front of her in a blocking stance.

BBBAAAAAAAAAANNGGG~!!!

Tang Li Xue felt something heavily strike her hands until they went so painful and numb. Even her body was thrown off several meters backward, but she quickly stabilized herself before her body smashed onto the crystal wall behind her.

Fortunately, Tang Li Xue was wearing her glove weapon, [Critical Strikers]. If not, her hands and even her body would probably already cut into pieces by the fourth crystal puppet's sword attack.

But the durability of [Critical Strikers] fell by 53 points in only one strike from this fourth crystal puppet.

[Durability: 447/500]

The durability of [Critical Strikers] will gradually recover over time, but if she kept using her [Critical Strikers] to block nine more attacks from this fourth crystal puppet, her [Critical Strikers] would certainly break apart sooner or later.
