The ancient merman told Beatrice, “After accepting the last test, you will be able to obtain the inheritance of the

ancient merman. Kunlun and I were husband and wife. Kunlun was a Divine Master. If you obtain my inheritance,

you can also obtain many secrets that only Divine Masters know.”

“Don’t you want to become stronger? Don’t you want to become a Divine Master? Don’t you want to kill your way

into Lion King City to avenge your deceased parents and hundreds of clansmen?! Have you forgotten how Jessica

died? Have you forgotten how your parents died and how you were forced to become a woman?”

When she heard the ancient merman’s words, a conflicted look flashed across Beatrice’s eyes.

She stared at the other side of the fork in the road and her heart raced.

However, when she heard the pained howls of Yu Huang and the others, she couldn’t help but hesitate again.

“Beatrice, you are about to obtain the secret to becoming a Divine Master. Are you really willing to give up at this

time?” With that, the ancient merman looked at Beatrice quietly and waited for her reply.

Beatrice’s gaze passed the ancient merman and landed on the battlefield behind her.

On the battlefield, in order to protect Feng Yuncheng, Xiao Shu, and Yin Rong’s corpses and prevent themselves

from being accidentally injured or becoming food for other sea beasts, Sheng Xiao created a protective shield.

Then, the four of them worked together while fighting a bloody battle to defeat the male Winged Fish.

The male Winged Fish could cause a deep sea tsunami with a single flap of its wings.

Powerful waves rushed over from afar and separated Yu Huang and the others in the blink of an eye. Seeing that

Estelle was about to be swept into the magma pool by the waves, Beatrice suddenly reached out and pushed away

the ancient merman blocking the middle of the road before running towards the shore.

With every step she took, the bridge behind her would be destroyed.

When Beatrice ran to the shore, the bridge over the magma pool had already collapsed.

Beatrice didn’t even look behind her. She flew up to catch Estelle and swam towards Yu Huang with him. Soon, the

five of them held hands and grabbed each other tightly.

Seeing that Beatrice had given up the chance to inherit the legacy and came back to fight with them, Sheng Xiao

scolded her with a dark expression, “Are you stupid?! You’ve already passed a few tests. You would have gotten the

legacy if you held on a little longer!”

Yu Huang also frowned and said, “Beatrice, you shouldn’t have given up.”

However, Beatrice said, “I would rather give up the inheritance and be an ordinary woman than watch my friend

die in front of me.” Beatrice grabbed Estelle’s hand tightly and said to him, “Friends are more important than the

inheritance.”

Hearing this, Yu Huang and the others couldn’t bear to condemn Beatrice anymore.

“I dragged you down.” Estelle felt very guilty.

Beatrice shook her head. “I might not get the inheritance, but I can cultivate on my own. However, if I lose my

friends, I will never be able to see you guys again. If it were you, you would probably do the same.”

Estelle smiled brightly at Beatrice. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

The five of them floated side by side in the water. This time, they took the initiative to attack the male Winged Fish.

“Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda, first move!”

“Nine-Layered Divine Pagoda, second move!”

Just as Beatrice circulated all her spiritual power and attacked the male Winged Fish, the huge figure of the male

Winged Fish disappeared from in front of her. Beatrice was shocked to realize that her comrades had also

disappeared.

She turned around in surprise and realized that the seawater was also gone.

As for her, she was still standing on the magma pool. Under her feet, there was the Bridge to Life. Behind her,

there was no bridge back to the shore. There was only a magma pool emitting black smoke. On the shore, Yu

Huang and the others were all sitting cross-legged. There were no male Winged Fish attacking.

After Beatrice looked up at the sky and saw that the barrier was still intact and emitting a lustrous luster, only then

did she realize that everything she had seen and heard was an illusion created by the ancient merman.

If she had returned to the shore without hesitation the moment she discovered a return bridge behind her, she

would have failed the test, and the bridge under her feet would have disappeared. She definitely would have fallen

into the magma pool and turned to ashes.

If she had really fallen for the ancient merman’s trap and ignored her friends’ lives, then her test would be

considered a failure. The bridge under her feet would have collapsed, then she would have fallen into the magma

pool and be reduced to ashes!

At the thought of this, Beatrice couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.

It seemed that the tests set by the ancient merman were indeed interconnected and even a single mistake was

fatal.

If she had made even a single mistake, she would have lost everything.

“Roar!”

The fire dragon roared and silently retreated even further from Beatrice.

Yu Huang and the others revealed gratified expressions when they saw that Beatrice had passed another test.

Beatrice turned around and looked at them. Seeing that they were safe and sound, she smiled charmingly and took

a step forward without hesitation.

When Beatrice stepped on the narrow bridge on the left, she realized that there was no way forward.

There was also no path behind her either.

There was only a stone slab under her feet.

At this moment, the black smoke that enveloped the magma pool slowly dissipated. Beatrice saw that she was only

three to four meters away from the other side. However, in the situation where her spiritual power was completely

suppressed, Beatrice was unable to jump to the other side.

Then, how should she reach the other side?

Beatrice was distressed.

At this moment, the fiery red dragon floating in the sky suddenly said to Beatrice, “The Bridge to Life only carries

fated people. If you can’t see the bridge, then you’re not that fated person.”

With a frown, Beatrice looked up at the fire dragon and said angrily, “There’s no way forward or any way to retreat.

Are you asking me to wait for death here?”

The fire dragon swayed its body and said mysteriously, “Whether there’s a path or not, you have to see with your

heart.” With that said, the fire dragon turned into a pool of blood-red water and fused with the magma pool.

See with her heart?

Beatrice really didn’t know how to.

Her eyes told her that there was no way out. How could her heart see the way?

Seeing that Beatrice had suddenly stopped and the fire dragon had disappeared, Yu Huang couldn’t help but shout,

“Beatrice, what’s wrong?”

The stone slab under Beatrice’s feet was very narrow, so she couldn’t turn around. With her back facing Yu Huang

and the others, she said loudly, “There’s no way forward!”

“No way forward?” Everyone was surprised.

Logically speaking, Beatrice was fated, so she should be able to see the way.

If she couldn’t see, there would really be no way out.

“That shouldn’t be the case,” Yu Huang said. “You were able to see the bridge and pass the various tests set by the

ancient merman, so there’s no reason for you to walk into a dead end.”

Sheng Xiao asked Beatrice, “What message did the fire dragon give you just now?”

Beatrice said, “It said that I have to find the way with my heart.”

Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao, and Donor said in unison, “It means you have to find the way through comprehension!”
