Chapter 262: Determination This is a 100,000 year-old plant-type soul beast. The beast is like a scarlet-devil mastiff, but it can speak and act like a human being. It's like a "flying soul tool" ready to fly at any time. Senior asks the beast to tell him where he can find the book, and the beast tells him that he's lucky that he ran into the beast, because if he were a grumpy person, he'd be killed immediately. He's glad that someone finally came, because he was bored to death. He tells Senior that he has a cultivation of ten times that of the beast. He says that if they ran into a "soul beast" with a bad temper, they'd have to fight, but if they needed to, they wouldn't give in. Senior apologizes for lying to him, and says that they came to find a book. He asks if the book is the father's or uncle's, and if not, if you're his descendant or fated person. The test is that if you die after consuming the herb, you are his or her descendant. If you die, then you aren't, so this test is the test. If he doesn't die, he isn't his descendant, so he can't have the book and the herb to cure him. He has a 50-50 chance of survival, but he knows that if he dies, the beast won't listen to him.
