I walk sideways in the game world

Chapter 226: The danger of inheritance test, the inner demon quietly grows

"Since that's the case, then I have nothing to fear!" Ren Xiaoyao let out a long roar, and all the fear in his heart was swept away, replaced by a firm belief that would move forward.

The sword energy continued to roar towards him, but this time, Ren Xiaoyao did not dodge, but rushed towards it. The long sword in his hand turned into a series of afterimages, dispelling the incoming sword energy one by one.

As time went on, Ren Xiaoyao's movements became smoother and his mind became more peaceful. He seemed to merge with the surrounding space. The once deadly sword energy now seemed like a gentle breeze to him, completely threatening.

"Good boy, you've grasped the true meaning of the inheritance test so quickly!" True Lord Jiuyang's voice rang in Ren Xiaoyao's ears, his tone full of praise. "It seems that you really didn't let me down!"

However, Ren Xiaoyao did not dare to let his guard down. He knew that the test of inheritance was far from over and the real challenge was still to come.

At this time, outside the inheritance test space, Xia Lin was waiting anxiously. She had been waiting here for three whole days and three nights, but still had not received any news about Ren Xiaoyao.

"Brother Xiaoyao, you must be safe!" Xia Lin clasped her hands together and prayed silently in her heart. She knew that this inheritance test was extraordinary and that the slightest mistake would lead to eternal damnation.

"Fairy Kongling, Brother Xiaoyao...Is he...okay? Is he okay?" Xia Lin raised her head and looked at the woman in snow-white clothes beside her, her tone full of worry.

Fairy Kong Ling shook her head slightly and sighed softly, saying, "The inheritance test is extremely dangerous, and I cannot predict the outcome. However, I believe that with Master Ren's talent and perseverance, he will be able to overcome this danger."

At this moment, a sudden surge of energy was heard from the inheritance test space. Fairy Kong Ling's expression changed, and she said in a deep voice, "Oh no! Someone has broken into the inheritance test space!"

"What?!" Charlene was shocked. "Who is it? How could this happen?"

The ethereal fairy did not answer, but disappeared in an instant, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air: "You stay here, don't go anywhere!"

……

At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao was unaware of what was happening in the outside world. He was concentrating on dealing with the challenge before him.

As the test of inheritance deepened, the pressure on Ren Xiaoyao grew. Various illusions appeared before his eyes, some of which were his deepest desires, and some were his most dreaded nightmares, all of which challenged the limits of his will.

"Hahaha, Ren Xiaoyao, you can't escape!" A cold voice suddenly sounded in Ren Xiaoyao's ears, "Your fear, your desire, will all become a part of me!"

Ren Xiaoyao suddenly turned around and saw a figure in a black robe with a ferocious face appear behind him.

"Who are you?" Ren Xiaoyao was shocked and asked in a deep voice.

"Who am I?" The black-robed man smiled sinisterly. "Soon, you'll find out. Because you will become my puppet!"

As soon as the black-robed man finished speaking, he suddenly pounced towards Ren Xiaoyao...

In the inheritance test space, sword energy crisscrossed, killing intent was awe-inspiring. Ren Xiaoyao's figure shuttled through it, like a small boat struggling in the turbulent waves.

"Hahaha, Ren Xiaoyao, you can't escape! The fear deep in your heart, everything you desire, will eventually become my power!" The Black Demon King laughed wildly, and the black energy in his hands turned into sharp blades, attacking Ren Xiaoyao madly.

Ren Xiaoyao brandished his sword, desperately resisting the Black Demon King's attacks. However, the Black Demon King's strength far exceeded his imagination, and every clash left him feeling his blood boiling and his strength draining. Even more terrifying, the Black Demon King's words, like a venomous snake, constantly eroded his heart.

The failures of the past, the unbearable memories, flooded back to him like a tide. He saw himself abandoned by his family, mocked by the world; he saw the woman he loved leave him, leaving him alone to struggle in pain...

"Shut up!" Ren Xiaoyao roared, the sword in his hand blazing even more fiercely. However, his heart grew increasingly uneasy. The Black Demon King's attacks grew more and more fierce, while his own movements grew slower and slower.

"Hahaha, Ren Xiaoyao, you have begun to waver! Your heart has been broken by me, and you are destined to become my puppet!" The Black Demon King laughed wildly, his eyes full of greed and pride.

Outside the inheritance test space, Xia Lin waited anxiously. Suddenly, she felt a strong evil aura coming from within the space, and her face turned pale.

"Oh no! It's the Black Demon King!" The ethereal fairy's face darkened, and she flashed and was about to rush into the inheritance test space.

"Stop!" A cold voice suddenly sounded, and a figure in a black robe with a ferocious face stood in front of the ethereal fairy.

"It's you! The Netherworld Ghost Envoy!" The Fairy of Emptiness's expression changed, and she said in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?"

"Hahaha, Fairy Kongling, long time no see." The Netherworld Ghost Envoy smiled sinisterly, "I'm here on my master's orders to lend a hand to the Black Demon King. Just stay here and don't interfere in our affairs."

Fairy Kong Ling was extremely anxious, but she also knew that she was no match for the Netherworld Ghost Envoy. She gritted her teeth and could only watch the Netherworld Ghost Envoy enter the inheritance test space, silently praying in her heart that Ren Xiaoyao would be safe.

Inside the inheritance test space, Ren Xiaoyao's breathing became increasingly rapid, his forehead covered in sweat. Various visions constantly surfaced before his eyes, and the voice of the Black Demon King kept echoing in his ears. He felt increasingly confused and terrified.

"Give up, Ren Xiaoyao, you've already lost!" The voice of the Black Demon King was like a curse, constantly echoing in his ears.

Ren Xiaoyao stumbled, and the sword in his hand dimmed a little. He raised his head and looked at the Black Demon King in front of him, his eyes full of struggle and pain.

"Am I... am I really going to lose?"

Seeing Ren Xiaoyao's expression, the Black Demon King knew his plan was already halfway successful. He sneered, and the black energy in his hand condensed again, transforming into a black lightning, stabbing fiercely at Ren Xiaoyao's heart... The Black Demon King's black lightning pierced Ren Xiaoyao's heart like a venomous snake. At the critical moment, Ren Xiaoyao seemed to be frozen in time, watching the fatal attack come at him.

"Brother Xiaoyao!" Xia Lin exclaimed outside the inheritance test space, almost rushing in. Fairy Kong Ling was quick to grab her and shook her head solemnly.

"During the test, life and death are decided by fate. We cannot interfere without permission." The ethereal fairy spoke in a heavy tone, but her eyes were fixed on Ren Xiaoyao, and her heart was also filled with anxiety. She could clearly feel the changing atmosphere in the test space. The evil force was constantly eroding Ren Xiaoyao, and his resistance was growing weaker and weaker.

Inside the space, black lightning pierced Ren Xiaoyao's left shoulder, causing blood to gush out. The excruciating pain jolted him awake. He looked down at the black lightning that was almost touching his chest, a flash of fear in his eyes, and instinctively leaned back, barely avoiding the fatal blow.

"Hahaha, Ren Xiaoyao, you're scared after all!" The Black Demon King laughed arrogantly, his voice filled with mockery and ridicule. "What? Is this the power you crave? Is this the victory you seek? In the end, aren't you still trapped by your own inner demons?"

Ren Xiaoyao clutched his wound, his face pale from the intense pain. But he knew better than to mention that what truly made him powerless was the fear and despair growing deep within his heart. The Black Demon King's words were like sharp blades, constantly piercing his wounds and making it nearly impossible for him to breathe.

He saw Xia Lin's disappointed eyes, the helpless shaking of the ethereal fairy's head, and the faces of those who had laughed at him and betrayed him... All the negative emotions flooded him like a tide, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"No, this isn't me..." Ren Xiaoyao wanted to refute, to prove himself, but the words were on the tip of his tongue, and he couldn't say them. He found that he couldn't control his thoughts. Those negative emotions were like maggots on his tarsal bones, tightly wrapped around him, making him unable to break free.

"Give up, Ren Xiaoyao, surrender to me, and you will get everything you want!" The voice of the Black Demon King was like the whisper of a devil, with the power to bewitch people, constantly eroding Ren Xiaoyao's will.

Ren Xiaoyao's eyes began to blur, and the sword in his hand became extremely heavy. He felt extremely tired, as if all the strength in his body had been drained. Just when he was about to give up resistance, a gentle voice sounded in his ears:

"Brother Xiaoyao, don't give up, I believe in you!"

It's Charlene!

Ren Xiaoyao suddenly raised his head. Through the layers of mist, he seemed to see Xia Lin's worried eyes and hear her encouraging voice. At that moment, the nearly extinguished flame in his heart seemed to be rekindled, and a powerful force surged from the depths of his heart...

Charlene's voice was like a stream of clear water, pouring into Ren Xiaoyao's dry heart. He bit his tongue hard, and the sharp pain sobered him up a bit. Yes, he couldn't give up. He still had Charlene, and many unfulfilled promises!

He endured the physical and mental pain, trying to concentrate and break free from the control of his inner demons. He recalled the hardships and glory along the way, recalled Charlene's smile and encouragement, and recalled the people who supported and helped him...

As memories flooded back, a warm current gradually flowed through his body, dispelling the haze in his heart. He gripped the sword tightly in his hand, and the blade emitted a crisp humming sound, as if responding to his determination.

"Black Demon King, you will never succeed!" Ren Xiaoyao roared, his voice filled with unyielding determination. He swung his sword with all his might, and the golden sword energy was like a flash of lightning, splitting through the layers of darkness and heading straight for the Black Demon King.

"You are overestimating yourself!" The Black Demon King snorted coldly, and the black demonic energy rolled, easily blocking Ren Xiaoyao's attack.

"Do you think you can defeat me like this?" The voice of the Black Demon King was like a call from hell, full of ridicule and disdain. "The demon in your heart has been planted. You are destined to become my puppet!"

The Black Demon King's words were like a curse, shattering Ren Xiaoyao's newly ignited hope. He was horrified to discover that the negative emotions deep within him, far from disappearing, had become even stronger, like a savage monster ready to devour him completely.

Fear, despair, anger, hatred...all kinds of negative emotions surged like a tide, assaulting his sanity. The scene before him began to distort, and all kinds of terrifying sounds echoed in his ears, as if he were in an endless abyss.

"Brother Xiaoyao, hold on! Don't be controlled by your inner demons!" Outside the inheritance test space, Xia Lin shouted anxiously, with a hint of tears in her voice.

Fairy Kong Ling frowned, her eyes filled with worry. She could sense the growing evil power within Ren Xiaoyao, and understood the danger he was facing.

"Inner demons are a big taboo for practitioners. Once controlled by them, the consequences will be disastrous..." The ethereal fairy murmured to herself, her tone full of worry and helplessness.

Ren Xiaoyao wanted to respond to Xia Lin's cry, to prove he could defeat his inner demons, but he found he could no longer control his body. All sorts of terrifying scenes appeared before his eyes, as if he were in endless darkness. A cold hand was slowly reaching towards his face...
