[END] Will Eternal

Chapter 925: Let the Trial With Fire Begin!

Even when Bai Xiaochun started looking around for Du Lingfei, someone inside the large hall at the top of the mountain peak looked down, looking down, throwing a glance at the ground below him caused the sky to become gloomy and a huge wind kicked upwards.

The Heavenspan Sea was silent, as were the waterfalls and the surface of the lake. Because of that gaze, the entire island began to tremble.

Everyone in the square, including Bai Xiaochun, felt their minds stagger madly. All talk stopped, and all hearts began to race when an indescribable pressure suddenly weighed on all of them.

It was so powerful ... that none of them could move a muscle !!

Even Bai Xiaochun and the other gods could not move. The level of pressure weighing down on them was so intense that rumbling sounds filled their bodies.

"Heavenly!" This was not the first time Bai Xiaochun had sensed Heavenly power. Back in the Wildlands, he felt the same pressure.

But now, things were different from in the Wildlands. The Heavenly Aura seemed more explosive and violent, to the point where Bai Xiaochun felt his internal organs tremble.

It was an energy that surpassed the God Realm many times, and even the god level. This was the peak level of absolute power in this world!

"He's not hurt?!?!" Bai Xiaochun thought, shivering. The other gods trembled uncontrollably, so there was little need to mention the Nascent Soul experts, whose minds were almost empty.

It was at this point that a young woman came out of the palace at the foot of the huge statue. He wore clothes decorated with phoenixes, and exuded glory. He was none other than Du Lingfei!

As he floated in the air, with a huge statue behind him, he spoke with a powerful voice that resounded in all directions.

"The rot!"

In direct response, everyone in the square, including Bai Xiaochun, involuntarily clasped their hands and bowed deeply at the Heavenly Statue.

"Greetings, Heavenly!"

Their combined sounds created sound waves that caused the heaven and earth to tremble. Their voices trembled with vigor and fervor, a raw adoration for someone who mastered the highest level of strength!

As everyone bowed, Du Lingfei turned to the side respectfully. Then, when the crowd below had finished offering an official greeting, he turned around and looked at the crowd. His gaze was attached to Bai Xiaochun for only a moment, and did not reveal any signs of recognition.

"Daoist colleagues, you already know the rules of this trial," he said coldly. "The first person to appear will be the next Celestial disciple.

"In terms of time limits .. no!" With that, he waved his hand, whereupon the special guards in the square started handing out jade slips to all the cultivators present.

"These jade slips will record your activities in the trial with fire, and when you find a way out, they will act as an authentication device to bear witness to your success!" After finishing his explanation, he stretched out his hand to summon the purple stone. Waving his hand, he sent the stone flying down towards the lake below.

The stone became a ray of purple light which, just before it hit the surface of the lake, exploded. Water gushed out in all directions, and then .. a huge stone gate rose from the bottom of the lake!

Its height reached 300 meters, and it exuded an aura of deep admiration. It was carved with countless ferocious and furious faces, like humans living to the extreme, to the point where it was almost possible to hear them howl.

A black fog swirled from the surface of the gate, turning into ninety-nine black dragons whose howls shook heaven and earth. Each dragon was 3,000 meters long, and they all twisted and spun into the sky, as if they wanted to break through to the area outside of the sky.

Compared to the dragon, the stone gate was so small that it was insignificant.

Everyone on the ground was shaken by what they saw.

The roar of the dragon dragon turned into a desperate and defiant wail, and then they were smashed to pieces.

The whole process only lasts for a few moments. The dragons collapsed into a black fog that swirled around the stone gate and turned into a huge vortex.

As the vortex spun, an immense level of power gripped the stone gate, pulling it over. until cracks began to spread on its surface!

At the same time, a dark and sinister aura began to seep out from the cracks, making it as if all the ground was about to fall into a cold winter!

It was a cold qi that seemed to be capable of freezing souls. Even Bai Xiaochun shivered as he looked at the gap which, although it did not seem very large, was actually tens of meters tall.

Even by invoking the full strength of his deva cultivation base he could see the world that existed outside of that gap clearly.

Even so, both Bai Xiaochun and everyone present could tell. The twin Cloud Lightnings masters, Thousand-Ghost Masters and Immortal Spirit Masters all had very serious expressions on their faces, and it was the same as all the various Nascent Soul cultivators.

Song Que, Bai Lin, Zhao Tianjiao, Heretic, and everyone present were completely shaken.

The gate that led to the trial with fire was truly strange, and at the same time, directed almost everyone to the same question: why would the Celestial use these rules and this dangerous trial with fire to choose a new apprentice?

After all, the Nascent Soul cultivators participating in the trial were cunning foxes whose understanding of the crafty planning art surpassed lower level cultivators. It was almost impossible for them to avoid suspicion of this kind of situation.

Everyone in the crowd was so shocked that none of them noticed how Big Fatty Zhang's eyes were wider than others. And that was because ... he had seen this stone gate in his dream !!

"One last reminder …." Du Lingfei said softly. Instantly, the cultivators in the square stared at him.

“The trial by fire consists of a very large land which, though endless, is so great that it defies description…. It consists of four main areas: deep swamps, wild forests, vast plains, and barren deserts!

“Whatever magical stuff you bring to court with fire will not work …. Watch your spiritual power. In the land of temptation with fire, spiritual energy was scarce….

"To come out on top in the trial with fire, and in fact, to survive, you need to control your spiritual power carefully. However ... there are many magic items that are not bound in it. If you can obtain them, they will increase your battle prowess and make it easier for you to succeed!

“You won't be the only one in the trial. I will lead a special group of Heavenspan Island guards inside, and we will be tasked with overseeing, assessing, and adjudicating the disputes! ” Du Lingfei's words caused most of the people in the square to relax a little. Now that they knew that they would not be alone, but would have the special guards of Heavenspan Island in the trial with them, they felt much safer.

Furthermore, Du Lingfei, who was the envoy of Heavenspan, would also enter. Because of all that, everyone felt much less nervous. The twin Master Cloud Lightnings, the Thousand-Ghost Master and Immortal Spirit Master were also relieved.

Although they personally did not know all the details of Du Lingfei's identity, they had been gods for many years, and had a lot of speculation. The fact that Du Lingfei had personally entered the trial with fire led them to the conclusion that, although there would be danger, it was actually withheld to choose a disciple for the Celestial!

When Du Lingfei saw everyone breathing in relief, he reached out and pointed to the stone gate.

"Let the trial by fire .. start!"

A gravitational force emerged from the vortex, causing rumbling sounds to fill the air. At the same time, the cracks in the door widened, sending even colder qi.

Although that cold qi was extremely powerful, it could not match the burning passion in the hearts of decision makers. Without a doubt, they started flying into the air, and then passed through the stone gate!
