Lin Fan was surprised to see this key, but he didn't know what it was for at all, so he showed it to Angela and Momonga.

Both of them shook their heads since they didn't know what this key was for either, but Momonga said, "Since this key came with the Soul Avatar, it should mean that it is a special reward for clearing this trial. As for what it's for, that is something I don't know."

​​

No one said a thing as they all fell into thought over what this key could be for.

Finally, it was Lin Fan who thought of something.

Lin Fan said, "Wasn't there a key hole that was on the sign in the middle?"

That was right, the sign that contained the rules, there had been a strange keyhole underneath all the text.

At the time, they had no idea what this keyhole had been for, but now it all seemed to fit into place. However, before they did do this, there was something else they had to make sure of first.

The portal had spawned right by them after Momonga had taken the two Soul Avatars, so it had been waiting the entire time, but there was something else strange about this test. When they received notification that they had cleared this test, for some reason they hadn't received any points at all.

Still, that was the last thing on their mind right now since they had already earned enough points to reach the next trial.

After heading back through the portal, the first thing they did was look for the two cloaked figures.

While they had agreed to cooperate for this inheritance trial, it was clear that neither side trusted each other. To be honest, the only reason the cloaked figures were working with them was because of their strength, but the only reason why Lin Fan's group took them along was because of the potential information they had.

So that meant that even though they were cooperating, it didn't mean they would be sharing everything.

After making sure that the two cloaked figures weren't there, Lin Fan's group came over to the sign that was right in front of them. They walked around to the front of the sign and what appeared was the keyhole that they had remembered.

Lin Fan raised the key to Momonga, but Momonga shook his head and pushed it back to him.

Lin Fan nodded when he saw this and brought the key over to the keyhole on the sign. The front part of the key perfectly fit the shape of the keyhole on the sign, but since it was only a picture drawn on the sign, no one expected it to enter the keyhole.

However, what they didn't expect was that with a flash of light, the keyhole turned into an actual keyhole that was made of light and took the key in.

Lin Fan was taken aback and didn't know what to do, but after a few seconds, he turned the key in the glowing keyhole.

The key sunk into the keyhole and moved out of Lin Fan's hand, but Lin Fan didn't have time to mind that since there was a change with the portal that had been behind the sign.

This was the portal that had led to the impossible mission, but now it had changed from the normal blue colour, which was the same colour as all the other portals into a golden colour.

Lin Fan looked at Momonga and Angela before walking forward towards the portal with both of them behind him.

There was a flash of light as they went through the portal and when the flash of light disappeared, they had reappeared inside a throne room, but the throne room was the same dark blue colour as the starting room with the arch. At the center of the throne room was a giant throne that was of the same colour as the rest of the room and sitting on that throne was a person that they could be considered familiar with.

Sitting on that throne was the Ruler of this realm, Leo.

Leo opened his eyes when they came in and after looking over them for a bit, he said, "Welcome to the secret reward room. What you receive here will be your reward for clearing the impossible test." Then he paused for a second before continuing, "As you have already guessed, the impossible test is a recollection of what happened to this realm before its demise. While I won't ask you to take revenge for us, I hope that you…"

But before he could finish, he suddenly stopped talking as he narrowed his eyes to look at Momonga.

After looking at Momonga for a bit, Leo's serious expression was suddenly replaced with a look of shock as he shouted, "Lord Momonga, is that you?"

Momonga had been looking at Leo with a calm expression, but in his eyes, one could see a complicated mix of emotions if one looked carefully.

Momonga after a second of pause gave a nod and said, "It truly has been a long time."

Leo had a tear that came out of the corner of his eyes before he stood up to come forward and kneel down in front of Momonga, "Lord Momonga, it is an honour to see you again."

Then he looked up with a bitter smile on his face as he said, "Although this can't really be considered seeing you again."

Momonga said, "Where's your main body?"

Leo gave a sigh and shook his head, "I don't have a main body anymore, there is only this wisp of my soul here and the wisp of my soup that is running this inheritance. Since you are here, you should already know what happened to me and this realm…"

Momonga finally gave a sigh as he said, "Time truly passes quickly, soon I'll be the only one left."

Leo revealed a bitter smile and didn't say anything in response to this. Instead he said, "Lord Momonga, if I may be bold, may I ask you for a favour?"

Momonga just waved his hand to have him continue.

"Thank you my lord. I ask that you finish this inheritance and receive my Zodiac Knight token. Then I have to ask you to gather the rest of the tokens and open the Zodiac Realm." Leo said.

"Token? Do you mean this?" Momonga said before having Lin Fan hand over the token they had found before.

Leo took the token to look over and his eyes immediately opened wide, "This...This is the token of Aries, where did you get this?"

"We found this on a lower realm which didn't know what it was, so they treated it like trash." Momonga said.

Leo nodded in understanding since this was an item that one had to know how to use for it to demonstrate its value.

Leo then said, "My time is short, so I can't tell you much, but I can give you some information about this inheritance trial."

Momonga interrupted by asking, "Why is your time short? This is a wisp of your soul, why wouldn't you be able to stay?"

Leo explained, "The main power of my soul is left with the core of this inheritance, this wisp of my soul is only here to pass on the reward of the impossible test, so there isn't much information that I have. I'll give you what I can."

Leo waved his hand and a ticket appeared out of thin air, "This is the reward for passing the impossible mission, it's a ticket that can allow you exchange for anything in the point shop after the first trial. As you have already guessed, the points that you earn in the first trial, other than being used to pass the first trial will also allow you to exchange them for items after the trial. This ticket should allow you to obtain the secret item in that shop."

Lin Fan cut in by asking, "Do you know what the contents of the next trials are?"

Leo shook his head and said, "I don't know much about the rest since there was no need for this wisp of my soul to know that, but what I do know is that each of the trials focuses on a theme. Just like how this first trial is focused on intelligence, the next trial will be focusing on strength. As for what comes after, that I cannot tell you. However, I am confident that you will be able to complete it since you've come with Lord Momonga."

Lin Fan asked, "Is there anything else you can tell us?"

Leo shook his head, "There's not many memories with this wisp of my soul since there was no need. All the information that I have is related to the point shop after this trial and the Zodiac Realm."

Leo then continued, "I hope that you will be able to find the rest of the tokens and open up the Zodiac Realm. We sacrificed ourselves to stop Hades back then, but we were unable to destroy him and were only able to seal him. Please open up the Zodiac Realm and revive the Saintess, she'll be able to bring forth another new generation of Zodiac Knights and stop Hades."

Lin Fan and Angela both turned to Momonga at this moment.

Lin Fan of course wanted to open the Zodiac Realm since it was a top cultivation realm, but now it seemed like he was being dragged into someone else's battle. But still, it was a mission from his system, so he had no other choice.

Momonga paused for a bit before saying, "I'll do what I can, I can't promise you anything."

Leo nodded before his figure suddenly began disappearing. As he faded away, he still said, "Thank you Lord Momonga."
