The Ancient Honored One smiled gently, nodded, and said, "Ye Qingchen, you've proven your strength by reaching this point, but do you remember what I said before?"
Ye Qingchen was stunned, a light of sudden realization flashed in his eyes, yet he remained somewhat puzzled: "Can't I obtain the Buddha's Relic now?"
The Ancient Honored One smiled and explained, "Every checkpoint in the Ancient Temple is a test of your mind and will. The trial of the storm has made you more resilient, the baptism of thunder has strengthened your power, and the Trial of the Heart has revealed your inner steadfastness and beliefs. Everything you've gone through was meant to uplift you. These are all benefits indeed."
The Ancient Honored One said so much yet did not mention anything about the Buddha's Relic.
Ye Qingchen couldn't help but feel anxious.
Seeing this, the Ancient Honored One smiled and motioned for Ye Qingchen to follow him.
