Tang Nian was not sure what Natasha's identity was here, but she was indeed an elusive presence.

At this moment, when everyone just stepped into this mysterious place, Tang Nian couldn't help but widen his eyes, and found in surprise that Natasha had appeared in front of them like a ghost without knowing when.

At the moment their eyes met, Natasha immediately bowed respectfully to Tang Nian and said softly, "Sir Heir, you are finally back."

Tang Nian had no expression on his face and responded calmly, "Well, I came back to take the first test. I hope you can help me."

Natasha bowed quickly and replied, "You are really embarrassing me. It is my duty to serve you. It is my honor."

After that, Natasha slowly swept her eyes over the people behind Tang Nian, and continued, "I guess these should be the friends who participated in the first test with you? However, they are only qualified to stay here after successfully passing the test of the Eight Sacred Pillars."

Hearing this, Tang Nian nodded solemnly to show his agreement.

At the same time, Dai Mubai and others standing behind her quickly exchanged glances, and everyone's eyes revealed different expressions.

However, at this moment, even though they had countless questions and confusions in their hearts, they knew that this was not a suitable place to ask questions, so they could only suppress their curiosity and did not ask Tang Nian in front of outsiders.

Outsider Natasha: “…”

Everyone followed Natasha, and just like when Tang Nian first came here, they walked through the Yellow Spring Road full of red spider lilies in a limited time and turned a corner in front of the Naihe Bridge.

At this moment, Tang Nian suddenly felt his vision blurry, and the road that was originally clearly visible suddenly became hazy.

And at this moment, she was not the only one who had the same feeling as Tang Nian.

Ning Rongrong's slightly worried voice came from behind him, "Oh! Why can't I see anything?"

After hearing this, Tang Nian suddenly came to his senses. It turned out that the situation had been like this since he set foot in this place. Natasha must have intentionally kept them from knowing the specific path leading to the mysterious castle.

Tang Nian quickly spoke to comfort her, "Don't worry, just hold my hand, we will reach our destination soon."

"Okay!" Ning Rongrong responded quickly, and reached out to firmly grasp the hand that Tang Nian extended to her.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Zhuqing also grabbed Ning Rongrong's other hand without hesitation, and Dai Mubai took Zhu Zhuqing's hand. Seeing this, Ma Hongjun also quickly held Dai Mubai's wrist.

But as Ma Hongjun's hands clenched, Dai Mubai felt a chill on the back of his neck and his whole body went cold. However, the current situation was special and he had no time to think about so much. Just like that, the few of them, like a tightly connected chain, groped forward step by step in the direction of the castle.

Not long after, Tang Nian felt that the originally blurry road in front of him gradually became clear.

She stopped and looked carefully, and was shocked to find that they had arrived outside the mysterious and ancient castle without her knowing when.

Tang Nian's expression suddenly became solemn and she lowered her voice and said, "We're here."

This sentence was like a thunderclap exploding in the air, and the slightly relaxed atmosphere just now disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Before he finished speaking, the expressions of the other four people suddenly changed, becoming serious and nervous as if they were facing a great enemy.

Because long before entering this place, Tang Nian had already made an agreement with them. Once she said "we're here", she was hinting to everyone that the situation they were about to face would be extremely dangerous.

Natasha took it all in silently, but she never said a word. She just raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing an elusive smile.

Then, she strode forward without hesitation and walked straight into the eerie castle.

Seeing this, Tang Nian and others hurriedly followed closely, not daring to delay for even a moment.

Although Tang Nian was not familiar with this castle, she had not been here very often.

However, she knew the importance of this place. Therefore, although the passages inside the castle were complicated and winding, she was still able to remember every path and knew very clearly that she was not far from the legendary Eight Holy Pillars.

Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong and Ma Hongjun were about to face the severe test of the Eight Sacred Pillars. When Tang Nian thought of this, her heart was involuntarily tightened, and her worry was beyond words. However, she knew that she couldn't let her inner uneasiness affect everyone at this moment, so she took a deep breath and tried to suppress the uneasiness.

Compared with his inner anxiety, Tang Nian actually prefers to believe in his teammates who are fighting alongside him from the bottom of his heart. They have experienced countless ups and downs along the way and have already established deep trust and tacit understanding with each other.

At this time, everyone had arrived in front of the Eight Holy Pillars. Haier stood there like a mountain, with his back to everyone. When he heard the footsteps behind him, he did not turn around to look, nor did he show the slightest curiosity, as if he had known someone would come. Instead, he said directly, "Inheritor, you are back."

The word "come back" is used quite subtly here, which makes everyone think about it.

But Tang Nian's expression did not change. He just nodded lightly and responded calmly, "I want to enter the first test as soon as possible."

Haier didn't seem surprised by Tang Nian's urgent request.

His face was still as calm as water, and he slowly said, "You all walk to the Eight Sacred Pillars one by one, and Yama God will convey his will to you. If there are people among you who do not meet the requirements, I will send them out of here safely, so you don't need to worry about it." After that, Haier slightly turned sideways, making way for the Eight Sacred Pillars, and motioned for everyone to come forward to accept the test.

Hearing this, Tang Nian's tense heartstrings finally relaxed a little, and her face, which had originally looked pale due to nervousness, gradually regained some color.

You know, this matter is of great importance and any mistake may lead to serious consequences.

However, just when everyone was hesitant, Dai Mubai, the undisputed big brother among the Shrek Eight Devils, stepped forward without hesitation.
