Chapter 1479 Forced Retainment (1)
Elder Ming De frowned slightly as he looked at the imposing Lu Zhou. Upon seeing Lu Zhou’s expression, it was clear Lu Zhou had no objection. From the beginning until now, he had assumed Lu Zhou was going to try to obtain recognition from the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction. He did not consider the two young girls at all. Moreover, when he tested Lu Zhou at Ming De Hall and found that Lu Zhou’s willpower and state of mind met the requirements.
At this moment, Lu Zhou finally said, “The person who wants to be recognized by the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction is my disciple.”
Elder Ming De’s expression remained calm. Since he was sure that they were going to fail anyway, it did not matter who it was. They were only doing the White Emperor a favor, after all.
On the other hand, Hong Jian could not help but ask, “It’s not you?” Lu Zhou shook his head. “I don’t need it.”
Lu Zhou had the divine power, the Three Scrolls of the Heavenly Writing, and the blue avatar so his innate talent was fully unleashed; he was on a new cultivation path. His cultivation path was even more heaven-defying the Great Void Seed.
Hong Jian said with a smile, “You have to treasure such a rare opportunity. Not anyone can enter the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction.”
Lu Zhou had been slightly curious about the test of one’s willpower and state of mind earlier. However, when he thought about the other nine Pillars of Destruction, he recalled he did not sense the pillar looking for any specific qualities. Hence, he lost interest.
Lu Zhou said, “I’m not interested.”
Hong Jian was speechless. This was the first time he met someone who did not know how to appreciate favors. There were countless people clamoring to enter the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction, but they were all denied entry. The person in front of him, on the contrary, had no interest at all. He thought to himself, ‘If it weren’t for the White Emperor, none of you would be able to come here at all. Why are you acting so pretentious?”
“Can I start now?” Little Yuan’er asked again. She was anxious that she could not help but fidget.
Elder Ming De gestured to Little Yuan’er and said, “You can go ahead and try now.” Inwardly, he thought to himself, ‘Who cares? It’s just a formality, after all.’ “Oh.”
Little Yuan’er walked toward the square platform. Just as she was about to reach the edge, Elder Ming De said, “Little girl, I have to remind you again. If you feel a disturbance in your mind or you feel afraid, it’s better to stop trying.”
Elder Ming De would naturally prefer it if nothing untoward happened to the White Emperor’s people in this place.
Little Yuan’er turned around and asked in confusion, “Aren’t they just illusions? What’s there to be afraid of?”
Elder Ming De shrugged. “I guess so. It’s just a reminder anyway.” “Oh.” Little Yuan’er turned back and said, “So it’s like the Sky Hook Ropeway in the green lotus domain.”
Upon hearing this, Elder Ming De said, “It’s 100 times more dangerous than the Sky Hook Ropeway. The ropeway only magnifies the fears in your heart. However, this pillar will make consciousness sink into a bottomless abyss… If you’re not careful, it can even devour consciousness.”
Little Yuan’er was a timid person to begin with. Upon hearing these words, she grew a little fearful.
When Lu Zhou saw that Little Yuan’er’s movements had grown visibly slower, he said encouragingly, “Don’t worry. Go ahead.”
“Okay.” Little Yuan’er’s slowly climbed up the platform.
At this time, many Feather tribesmen appeared outside the hall. However, they could not come in to prevent disturbing the distinguished guests. Elder Ming De watched unblinkingly as Little Yuan’er walked up the steps onto the square platform.
The barrier was like a bubble, sparkling with radiance.
Little Yuan’er was extremely nervous. She inhaled deeply, clenched her hands, and cheered herself on. After repeatedly cheering herself on, she finally took a step toward the barrier.
At this time, Hong Jian said, “You’ll be bounced away by the barrier a few times so be careful and proceed slowly.”
Little Yuan’er continued walking toward the barrier.
Buzz!
A buzzing noise rang in the air, and electric currents appeared around the barrier as Little Yuan’er easily walked into the barrier.
Elder Ming De and Hong Jian watched with their mouths slightly agape and their eyes widened. They could not move their eyes away from Little Yuan’er who was standing in the barrier.
After Little Yuan’er entered the barrier, she turned around to look at everyone. Then, she touched her face and her body as though to confirm everything was normal before she looked at everyone again. After a moment, she said, slightly anxiously, “It’s over! It’s over! I’m caught in the illusions!”
Everyone: “???”
After a moment, Little Yuan’er looked at everyone again as she mumbled, “Hmm, it’s not as scary as he said…”

There was a long silence.
Finally, Hong Jian broke the silence first as he exclaimed, “How’s this possible?!”
Little Yuan’er jumped in fright. Then, she hurriedly patted her chest and said, “I thought all of you were illusions! Where are the illusions?”
“…” Hong Jian had no answer to this question. “This can’t be a fake Pillar of Destruction, right?” Elder Ming De suppressed the shock in his heart before he calmly said, “This is the real Pillar of Destruction at the Great Abyss Land. The Great Void seedling is just behind you. Everything can be fake, but the Great Void Seed can’t be fake.”
Little Yuan’er walked around in the barrier. Perhaps, after trying and failing nine times, she was rather curious. After a moment, she bent down and reached out toward the Great Void seedling to have a better look.
“Stop!” Hong Jian cried out.
Little Yuan’er pulled her hand back in shock.
Hong Jian said reproachfully, “if you destroy the Great Void seedling, can you bear the consequences?”
Little Yuan’er protested, “I was only going to touch it, not destroy it!”
“Even then, you can’t casually touch it,” Hong Jian said.
At this moment, Elder Ming De laughed and said, “Don’t worry. I believe you don’t have the intention of destroying it.”
Little Yuan’er looked at Elder Ming De and said, “You’re more sensible than him.”
