When Ling Feng and his party walked into Tiantian Palace, things changed and stars moved before their eyes, and then they came to a valley.
Obviously, that heavenly palace is just the door to this trial space.
The entire valley is incredibly large. Looking as far as the eye can see, one can see that at the four poles, there is an extremely towering sky pillar, submerged in the sky.
Above the sky, there are dense clouds, and from time to time there are roaring sounds, accompanied by dazzling thunder, flashing past among the clouds.
Within the valley, there are countless black stones about the size of eggs scattered densely.
At a glance, there are countless.
Is this the so-called Black Stone Trial?
Ling Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. From "Ling Feng's" memory, he learned that what they had to do next was to select one of the countless black stones as his own source of life.
And all the subsequent trials will revolve around this small stone.
The key is that most of these stones look exactly the same, and there is no way to distinguish the so-called good from bad.
For thousands of years, no one has been able to summarize an effective identification method among the disciples who have participated in the trials.
Basically, I can only go with my feelings.
At this moment, all the geniuses have scattered around, trying to select a suitable source stone for themselves in the vast sea of "stones".
But seeing Ling Yuan casually find a corner, he sat down cross-legged and immediately stared at Qingmu. Yi Ting and the others only had to wait nearby.
It seems that he wants to rely on his own spiritual perception to find the black stone that resonates with him among the endless black stones.
"This is a good idea."
Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and smiled, and followed suit, flying directly to the other corner of the valley and sitting down cross-legged.
Since there is no rule in choosing a black stone, just find a stone that suits you best and use it as your natal source stone.
Unknowingly, half an hour passed.
The geniuses of various ministries were still shuttled through the stone sea, unable to make a choice for a long time.
After all, there is only one chance to screen out the Origin Stone.
Once he chooses the wrong one, it means that he will miss the subsequent trials, let alone enter the road to apocalypse.
This is the experience and lesson summed up by countless predecessors. When choosing the source of life, you must be careful.
Therefore, even though he was as arrogant as Ling Yang, he did not make the decision easily.
If you are defeated due to lack of strength, you will be convinced, but if you choose the wrong source of life and lose, you will be so angry that you will vomit blood.
"Haha, this black stone is darker and smoother than the ones next to it. It must be a top-grade source stone!"
At this moment, a genius from the Juntian tribe flew to one of the black stones with a single step, grabbed the black stone, and held it in the palm of his hand, as if he had found a treasure.
Many of the testers around them turned back to look at the man, only to see a bolt of thunder falling suddenly from the clouds.
Boom!
There was a loud noise, and the whole world trembled!
The black stone in the hand of the Juntian tribe's genius flashed a dark screen of light at the same time, directly blocking his head.
However, just for a moment, there was a crisp "click" sound, the light curtain shattered, and the thunderbolt directly penetrated into the body of the genius.
"Poof!"
The next moment, the man was seen spurting out blood, and his whole body was scorched black by lightning.
And the black stone in his hand was directly blown into powder.
Then, his body began to turn into bits of golden light, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the trial space, and at the same time, he appeared outside the Yunshang Heavenly Palace.
This also meant that he completely lost his qualifications for the trial.
"No! No! Open the door and let me in! Let me choose again, choose again!"
The genius of the Juntian tribe was so unwilling that he beat his feet and chest and beat the gate of the heavenly palace desperately.
Unfortunately, the same door will never be opened a second time for the same person.
Any of the eight geniuses will only have one chance to participate in the Black Stone Trial in their lifetime.
And this guy, because he looked away, was thrown out as soon as he entered the door.
I'm afraid this kind of unwillingness will accompany me throughout my life and will never go away.
On the high platform.
“I didn’t expect that someone would be eliminated so soon!”
"I'm afraid that I have chosen the inferior black stone, which can't even withstand the first destructive thunder, right?"
"In a sense, his luck is also top-notch. Among the ten thousand black stones, you can't find one with such poor quality, right? Haha!"
Clan Chief Zongtian's words made Clan Juntian's defense directly break.
But I saw the Juntian Clan Chief gritting his teeth and glaring coldly at the Zongtian Clan Chief, "Thanks to this weird yin and yang, your Ling Yang is narrow-minded and has a corrupt character. A person like him is not worthy of receiving the blessing of the Celestial Eye Sage! ”
"Isn't he worthy? Is he worthy of your Juntian Department? If he is, why was he eliminated first?"
"You!"
The two sides exposed each other, and both of them blushed for a while. The other tribe chiefs also watched the excitement and did not mind the matter. In the end, it was the Yuantian tribe chief who held them down.
"You two, please calm down. Is it possible that as a clan leader, you really want to fight during the God Praying Ceremony?"
"Hmph!"
Hearing the four words "Prayer to the Gods", the two patriarchs were excited and sobered up a lot.
If the Holy Sacrifice is alarmed, even though the Holy Sacrifice is just a mortal without cultivation, he has absolute power of life and death in the Holy City of Tianhu.
Disrupting the prayer ceremony, a single word from the holy sacrifice can make the clan leaders directly become prisoners of their subordinates.
The power of the Eight Tribes of the Northern Wilderness comes from the blessing of the Heavenly Eye Saint, and the Holy Sacrifice is the "incarnation" of the Heavenly Eye Saint. Anyone who dares to disrespect the Holy Sacrifice is the public enemy of all the tribesmen of the Eight Tribes. All tribesmen, It must be attacked in groups.
……
"Humph, idiot!"
Seeing the contestant from the Juntian Division being teleported out, the three followers in the same group were naturally expelled from this space as well.
This also made the remaining geniuses more cautious, fearing that they would follow in the footsteps of that unlucky man.
Ling Yang clenched his fists. Affected by the previous battle for the ladder, he could not calm down to find the source stone.
But I dare not make a decision easily.
In the end, he stared directly at Ling Yuan, with a hint of evil flashing in his eyes, and then whispered to the three subordinates behind him: "In a while, I will specially snatch the black stone that Ling Yuan selected. Isn't that boy very attractive? Well, I just want to take away his luck. I wonder how he can be so arrogant in front of me!”
"Um..."
One of the retinue's eyelids twitched slightly, "Young Master, is this not good?"
"Am I the young master or are you the young master?" Ling Yang said with a loud mouth, "You just have to obey my orders and you have no right to talk! I just want to steal his opportunity, dare to follow him If I am against you, this is what will happen!”
The three major retinues dared to be angry but dared not speak out, so they could only grit their teeth and comply.
Ling Yang stared at Ling Yuan with an extremely sinister look, and said coldly: "As soon as he locks his target, you all immediately stop him. It only takes a moment, which is enough for me to cut off my beard first!"
"Yes, young master!"
The three subordinates sighed softly. Although they were not Ling Yuan's opponents, they should be more than enough to stop him for a moment.
at the same time.
Yi Ting, Qing Mu and Hao Cang were all guarding Ling Yuan, and they felt a cold gaze coming from a distance, all showing solemn expressions.
"It must be that bitch from Ling Yang, he must be holding back some bad moves!"
Hao Cang cursed lowly. It had to be said that his intuition was still very accurate.
"It seems that Ling Yang must be eyeing the boss and wants to intercept the black stone selected by boss Hu!" Yi Ting narrowed his eyes and analyzed in a deep voice: "This person is not weak, so we must guard against him!"
"He dares!"
Aoki directly took off the long bow from his back, "I'll keep an eye on that bitch. If he dares to mess around, I'll shoot his head through with an arrow! As for his retinue, Sihuo, Hao Cang, can you stop him?" Right? ”
"Two against three, more than enough!"
Hao Cang chuckled, his eyes full of confidence, "Not to mention anything else, the strength of the Four Fires is probably better than most of the direct descendants of the Eight Divisions! Those few stinky fish and rotten shrimps still want to plot against the boss , let’s have their spring and autumn dreams!”
Yi Ting shook his head and said calmly: "We must not underestimate the enemy. This time is related to the boss's opportunity and future. We must not let down the boss's trust in us!"
"Hahaha!"
Qingmu raised his hand and patted Yi Ting on the shoulder, "Sihuo, among our brothers, you are the most loyal and attentive to the boss. If you were a woman, I guess the boss would marry you, right?" ”
"Aoki, then your sister still has to fight against Sihuo!"
"Ahem..."
Aoki shook his head, "Okay, okay, if I don't talk about this, the girl won't be able to think about it. Maybe after a few years, she won't be so stubborn."
……
Time passes again.
Another hour passed.
During this period, several geniuses have already selected their own source stones, and their black stones have also successfully passed the baptism of the "Devouring Thunder", which can be regarded as a successful first step.
The first contestant to pass successfully, after the black stone in his hand withstood the destructive thunder, flew out and shot directly towards the sky pillar in the west.
The genius quickly caught up with his black stone, and then his figure sank directly into the sky pillar.
Thinking about it, it should have entered the second round of testing.
The other geniuses, after passing the test of the Devouring Thunder, also entered different Tianzhu.
According to previous generations, these four pillars represent the four poles of power.
The power of the East Pole Sea.
The power of the West.
The power of Antarctica.
The power of the North Star.
Entering different Tianzhu means different tests.
No matter whether you are finally qualified to enter the Road to Apocalypse, as long as you can successfully pass the many tests, it is already a huge opportunity in itself.
At this moment, Ling Yuan's eyelids jumped suddenly. In the vast sea of stones, he finally sensed the black stone that resonated with him.
At the same time, Ling Feng also suddenly opened his eyes.
The next moment, the two gazes turned into brilliant lights and shot out, converging in the direction of the same black stone.
Ling Feng's eyelids twitched slightly.
What, he actually chose the same black stone as Ling Taixu, the ancestor of Heavenly Dao?
Ling Feng's heart skipped a beat. The situation he was most worried about had happened!
If he also competes for this black stone, wouldn't it mean that he is competing for the opportunity that belongs to the ancestor of heaven.
No, absolutely not!
Ling Feng took a deep breath, his eyes shot out, and then he forcefully took them back.
Stealing the same black stone with the old patriarch will inevitably disturb the order of the entire time and space.
After all, according to Taixu Zhoulong, some people's fate may be insignificant, but some people are already closely related to the entire world.
There is no doubt that Ling Taixu (Ling Yuan) is the latter.
However, even though Ling Feng withdrew his gaze, he had no intention of arguing with Ling Taixu.
But this does not mean that the other person will give up easily.
"Haha, have you finally locked the target? The aura is amazing, it is indeed a top-quality black stone!"
Ling Yang laughed loudly, and in an instant, he flew out to grab the black stone that resonated with Ling Yuan.
"Don't even think about succeeding!"
Aoki quickly raised his bow and fired an arrow, directly targeting Ling Yang's head.
Whoosh!
The arrow was like thunder, and it shot in front of Ling Yang in an instant.
Ling Yang grabbed it with his big hand and crushed the arrow shot by Qingmu into powder.
"Hmph, if you want to stop me, you haven't seen enough! Stop them!"
Ling Yang shouted loudly, and his figure flew out again like thunder and lightning.
The target is the Black Stone.
Ling Yuan also opened his eyes at this moment, and his expression changed slightly.
Unexpectedly, Ling Yang could be so shameless and take away the opportunity he had worked so hard for without any effort on his part.
Taking a deep breath, Ling Yuan immediately flew out, only to see Ling Yang's three subordinates immediately take action to block Ling Yuan.
Immediately afterwards, Yi Ting and Hao Cang arrived and shouted at Ling Yuan: "Boss, don't worry about them! Go and stop that bastard!"
Ling Yuan nodded, a red light flashed between his eyebrows, the sky patterns condensed, and his speed surged again.
other side.
Seeing this scene, Empress Qingluo frowned, "Damn it, that bastard actually wants to snatch Xu Zun's black stone?"
She frowned and was about to take action, but was held back by Ling Feng.
"Senior, do you think our ancestors can't compete with a mere Ling Yang?"
With one sentence, Qingluo immediately calmed down.
Before Ling Feng finished speaking, he saw a spear suddenly congealed in Ling Yuan's hand.
Whoosh!
The spear shot out, turned into a wave, and penetrated directly towards Ling Yang.
Ling Feng's eyelids twitched suddenly, "This...isn't this the simplified version of the Qiankun Throw that he used in Bingfeng Ridge?"
Unexpectedly, Ling Yuan just took a look and not only learned it, but also showed the true style of Qiankun Yidan to a certain extent!
If he hadn't obtained the true bloodline of heaven, opened the Eye of the Emperor, and awakened his own heavenly weapons, Ling Yang would have died with this blow!
But despite this, Ling Yang felt tremendous pressure coming on him and made his own decision in an instant.
If he insists on snatching the black stone, the shot will definitely penetrate his body. Even if he dies in this trial space, it does not mean real death, but he will definitely lose the qualification to compete.
Although he is arrogant, he is not stupid.
He will still settle this account.
"Damn it, remember it!"
Ling Yang gritted his teeth and turned over to avoid the spear shot by Ling Yuan. The next moment, Ling Yuan's figure flashed and he had obtained the black stone that resonated with him.
His eyes glanced at Ling Yang with disdain, and then looked at Ling Feng.
Sure enough, he still noticed that Ling Feng's consciousness actually locked onto the black stone at the same moment, but in the end he took it back.
Could it be that he actually wanted to give in?
Ling Yuan was doubtful, but now that he had obtained the black stone, he could no longer transfer it to anyone else.
He took a deep look at Ling Feng and nodded towards Ling Feng.
Then, dark clouds rolled in the sky, and a terrifying destructive thunder was about to fall! (End of chapter)
