Chapter 187: Chapter 128: Heaven-Ascending Ladder, Mechanical Being Array, Terrifying Heart Inquiry Platform_4

After chatting with Ning Qi.

The newly initiated children focus on perseverance and character.

The Gang Essence Realm recruits emphasize combat strength and character.

This Heart Inquiry Platform is precisely where character is tested. ”Heart Inquiry Platform?” Someone slowly repeated these words, their eyes flickering slightly.

Those with a clear conscience felt fine, but those with secrets felt uneasy.

The three words themselves carry an oppressive feeling.

With the previous Heaven-Ascending Ladder and Mechanical Being Array as precedents, no one thought this so-called Heart Inquiry Platform was just for show.

This Heart Inquiry Platform is naturally also a creation of Ning Qi.

He previously developed the miraculous Soul Capturing Eye Technique, optimized it, combined it with several special treasure materials and Qimen Array techniques, creating the Heart Inquiry Platform. Those in it, if they relaxed their minds, would naturally be guided to speak their most genuine thoughts.

True Martial Sect disciples must not be evildoers or have an improper mindset.

Of course, using this method, capturing spies is almost certain.

Luo Wentian smiled broadly, a hint of malice in his expression: ”Ladies and gentlemen, you are the seniors, why not demonstrate for these little ones first?”

Under the leadership of True Martial disciples, everyone arrived at the edge of a platform large enough to accommodate hundreds. Around the platform stood various green stone pillars of different heights, carved with divine beast engravings, possessing a certain mysterious charm that immediately conveyed an extraordinary feeling.

Luo Wentian reminded: ”Relax, everyone, it’s just a simple small assessment. Once on the platform, just relax your mind. The Heart Inquiry Platform will not pry into your privacy. If you refuse to relax your mind for a long time, it will be considered a failed assessment.”

This is a drawback of the Heart Inquiry Platform, as it’s merely a derivative of the Soul Capturing Eye Technique.

If it could force a heart inquiry, that would indeed be impressive.

Ning Qi thought perhaps it required even more miraculous forces to achieve that.

Still, it wasn’t a big issue; those unwilling to relax their minds were naturally problematic, and during disciple trials, participants would naturally be willing to relax their minds.

The remaining thirty-some Gang Essence Realm strongmen exchanged uncertain glances.

But at this critical moment, it was impossible to give up.

Even those harboring ill intentions could only try with a hopeful mindset.

The children too were watching intently.

They would also have to undergo the Heart Inquiry Platform’s test soon.

As the thirty-some individuals sat cross-legged.

Luo Wentian’s expression gradually turned somber, he exchanged glances with Xiong Shi and others, and nodded silently, then streams of Gang Qi shot out, activating the Qimen Array within the Heart Inquiry Platform. ”Relax your minds!” A stern voice resounded.

In an instant.

A wave of miraculous and mysterious energy swept over the people on the platform. ”If to obtain an unparalleled martial art, you need to kill an innocent family, would you do it?” The stern voice continued to echo. ”If one doesn’t act for oneself, heaven and earth will destroy them; naturally, I would!” ”I would not!” ”Such an act is monstrous, I refuse!” ...

The responses varied, some tightly closed their eyes, but malice appeared on their brows.

Even if they feigned benevolence, in front of the Heart Inquiry Platform, their true thoughts were completely exposed.

Disciples nearby immediately recorded all the responses.

The stern voice continued questioning.

Each question pierced the heart.

For example, during times when the True Martial Sect is in trouble, would you retreat or fight; when encountering injustice, intervene or not. These comprehensive questions needed to be considered together, as humans are complex, a single question couldn’t determine everything.

The True Martial Sect is not looking to recruit saints.

As long as it doesn’t harm the core interests of the True Martial Sect, those candidates would naturally be prioritized.

However, those with excessive malice cannot pass either, as those who easily resort to mass murder are not aligned with the True Martial Sect’s path.

The stern voice raised the final question: ”What forces do you belong to?”

In an instant.

The responses were diverse. ”I serve the Qingquan Li Family, and I come seeking higher-level inheritance!” ”I’m a loose martial artist!”

Such responses were very normal.

But a few responses were extremely jarring. ”Holy Sect!” ”Southern Border!” ”Inquiring Sword Pavilion!” ”Formless Sect!”

Luo Wentian squinted his eyes.

He already had his suspicions about the Demon Sect and the Southern Border.

This Inquiring Sword Pavilion was most likely targeting the True Martial Sword Monument.

And the Formless Sect was the one pushed out of the Ninth Sect by True Martial Sect.

These two sects probably saw the wide recruitment by the True Martial Sect as an opportunity to plant some spies, in case of future actions?

The spectators looked shocked, especially those dozen eliminated Gang Essence Realm martial artists, whose hearts raced. The miraculousness of the Heart Inquiry Platform had already stirred unease among a few of them, and upon realizing that some had blurted out intentions so blatantly, their hearts pounded.

Someone couldn’t remain seated any longer; they erupted their Gang Qi and shouted angrily: ”Wake up quickly!!”

This furious howl jolted everyone on the Heart Inquiry Platform awake.

The Gang Essence Realm strongmen on the platform all showed expressions of horror. It was only at this moment that they realized what they had said.

This Heart Inquiry Platform was truly terrifying!
