Chapter 483: Full Outburst, Legendary (1)
“How difficult. I wonder what kind of freaks actually managed to get through the third stage.” The Golden Core Bloodforge Kings that already challenged the Overlord Hall began interacting with each other telepathically.
Naturally, none of them were foolish, keeping the discussion to the difficulty of the Overlord Hall itself without venturing into other topics that might reveal their identities.
Moreover, in their view, no one made it past the third stage. How amazing could their opportunities be? Even if they were really exposed, it wouldn\'t be a big problem.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Ten geniuses numbered 841 to 850 each entered a vortex.
Wu Yuan was among them.
The woman in white robes simply glanced at them and didn\'t say anything more.
...
This was a mysterious spacetime. An immense void stretched in all directions, faintly veiled in mist, rendering it impossible to discern the end of the emptiness.
In the middle of the void was a passageway around a thousand li wide. The ground of the passage was constructed with a unique, black metal.
Hum~ Wu Yuan appeared in the middle of the passageway. The moment his foot touched the passage, he felt its solid construction.
I wonder what sort of material this black metal is. Wu Yuan mumbled inwardly.
Following that, he swept his gaze around. So this is the Overlord Hall? It\'s quite special.
The void around him was vast and endless.
Similarly, the vast passage ahead stretched into immeasurable depths. From what he could see, it seemed to span tens of thousands of li.
Any further? It was unclear. A faint invisible force prevented him from seeing what lay at the end of the passage.
What exactly is the Overlord Hall’s test? Wu Yuan wondered. It had been quite a while since he entered.
Will I be able to pass the third stage? He felt somewhat nervous.
Wu Yuan didn\'t dare hope that he could clear the fourth stage, as over eight hundred Bloodforge Kings before him had already demonstrated the difficulty of challenging the Overlord Hall.
The fourth stage? Only the strongest among over a thousand Bloodforge Kings would stand a chance!
Although Wu Yuan was confident in the combined power of the two Daos, there was still a slight gap between his current level and the first-level Dao Field stage (Lesser Law).
Hence, the goal Wu Yuan set for himself was quite realistic – to pass the third stage and strive to get as far as he could in the fourth.
But when Zhuo Haiyue participated in the Golden Core Bloodforge Battle years ago, she was just over sixty and only managed to secure the title of Bloodforge Marquis. How did she come across a Legendary opportunity?
A hint of confusion flashed through Wu Yuan\'s mind.Buzz~ Suddenly, countless points of light converged, and a giant light screen with several lines of text materialized beside Wu Yuan:
The difficulty of the Overlord Hall’s test is adjusted for the challenger\'s age and mana cultivation. The older and higher the challenger’s cultivation level, the greater the difficulty.
After analysis, the challenger is over fifty years old, but not yet sixty, at the ninth-stage Spiritual Body phase. Comprehensive difficulty coefficient: fourteen.
The test is divided into six major stages, and each stage is subdivided into two parts: practical combat, and Dao Heart willpower!
You may choose any number of spirit equipment and artifacts of the third-grade and below from the weapons rack.
If you pass the fifth stage, you will obtain a Legendary opportunity at minimum... If you pass the sixth stage, you can gain an Overlord opportunity. With that, you will stand a great chance of becoming an Astral Monarch or an Immortal Sovereign in the future.
Go! Kill all opponents who stand in your way.
Showcase your talents to the fullest. The greater your talent, the more precious the opportunity you will receive.
With Wu Yuan’s Soul Force, he understood everything in an instant.
The trial\'s difficulty is determined by age and cultivation level? Wu Yuan\'s first reaction was astonishment, which quickly turned into excitement.
Excellent! Perfect!
If it was about absolute power, Wu Yuan could only match those peerless geniuses who had been cultivating for one or two hundred years. The length of time he had spent cultivating was too disadvantageous.
But a test divided by age? It was similar to the one-star tower.
Wu Yuan was confident. His power far exceeded the majority of Golden Core Bloodforge Kings his age.
Put simply, this Overlord Hall mainly evaluated talent; power wasn\'t the main focus.
Before my body evolved into a Celestial Divine Body, I was considered a top-tier genius in the immortal world. Now, having cultivated in the Bloodforge Spacetime for several months... Excitement flickered in Wu Yuan\'s eyes
Throughout the entire immortal world, can any of my peers still compete with me in talent?
I must give it my all. Wu Yuan’s hopes of seizing the Legendary and Overlord opportunities were reignited.
At the same time, Wu Yuan finally understood how Zhuo Haiyue managed to seize the Legendary opportunity a hundred years ago.
At around sixty years old, she was able to seize the title of Golden Core Bloodforge Marquis. Even if it was a close call, she couldn\'t have been weak. She must have reached the fifth or sixth-level True Intent stage (Lesser Law) at least.
Within the entire Silvermist Immortal Nation, such talent would be considered first-rate.
As long as her providence was favorable enough, obtaining a Legendary opportunity wasn’t out of the question.
The ultimate opportunity obtained by Bloodforge Kings was determined by their performance in the Overlord Hall.
As for Bloodforge Marquises? He didn\'t know how their opportunities were determined.
Providence is crucial.
In terms of power, Gao Yun is probably stronger than most Golden Core Bloodforge Kings here. But he only broke through after cultivating in the Bloodforge Spacetime, plus he ran into me. Wu Yuan sighed inwardly.
That was providence!
Providence was elusive and indescribable, yet undoubtedly real.
Some rode on the winds of favorable providence, sailing smoothly through life. Others with unfavorable providence, faced setbacks at every turn.
Of course, providence is just supplementary. Real strength matters more. If Gao Yun truly had absolute strength, he would have reached the Dao Field stage long ago, and swept his way through the entire battlefield.
Soon, Wu Yuan’s eyes fell upon a huge weapons rack at the side of the passage. It was truly enormous, nearly a hundred li long and wide.
It was densely packed with countless weapons, all radiating strong auras – sabers, flying swords, shields, spirit battle armor, spears, cauldrons, and so on.
From sixth-grade to third-grade spirit equipment, it had everything one could imagine!
A third-grade spirit saber, Earth attribute. Wu Yuan quickly selected four sabers as well as a set of third-grade spirit battle armor.
Aside from these, he chose no other weapons.
"Reminder, you must start the test within ten breaths. Those who fail to do so will be disqualified immediately," a cold voice suddenly rang out.
Five breaths, that was thirty seconds.
Let\'s go, I shouldn’t delay any longer. After a moment of deliberation, Wu Yuan picked up a storage wrist guard, and added several more shields and sabers to it.
Free items should not be wasted. What if the battles ahead were too intense, damaging his sabers and armor? Replacements were important.
Whoosh! Wu Yuan moved, diving into the passage like a fish into water.
"Stage One, Test One: Combat Test. Kill a hundred guardians! Complete the test in one hour. You may not leave the test passage.” A cold voice echoed in Wu Yuan\'s mind.
A moment later, shadowy figures clad in black armor appeared in the corridor, each radiating an intense aura.
There were a full one hundred figures.
Wu Yuan was slightly taken aback.
Each of these figures had a mechanical demeanor, just like puppets.
Among them, ninety figures possessed an extremely powerful vital aura, their bodies muscular and holding close combat weapons – sabers, large shields, battle axes, staffs, etc. They were obviously body refiners.
The remaining ten had much smaller frames, surrounded by sharp flying swords.
Ninety body refiners? Ten qi refiners? Wu Yuan assessed.
He couldn’t gauge their strength from outer appearances alone. He could only make a vague judgment that they were at the ninth-stage Golden Core or Spiritual Body phases with sixth-degree immortal roots.
"Kill!" The black-armored man standing at the front roared, swinging his saber and ferociously pouncing towards Wu Yuan.
At the same time, his figure ballooned to a height of thirty zhangs. Just by taking a single step on the metal floor, the land seemed to tremble. His aura was astonishing.
"Kill!" "Kill!" The body refiners, each exhibiting ether arts, roared and charged mercilessly towards Wu Yuan.
At the same time, the ten qi refiners each summoned eighty-one flying swords. Countless swords swarmed toward Wu Yuan like a hailstorm.
One hundred powerful cultivators joined hands, unleashing a powerful assault even without any array.
Block! With a mental command from Wu Yuan, a hazy earthy-yellow light instantly enveloped everything in a thousand li, covering most of the guardians.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Streaks of earthy yellow light descended, imbued with terrifying power, drastically slowing the momentum of the body refiners.
Clearly the suppression effects of a ninth-level Domain had a potent effect on ordinary cultivators at the Spiritual Body phase.
"Little Black, Beast Fusion, attack!"
Wu Yuan immediately took action, transforming into a hundred-zhang giant. With a slight flutter of his wings, he turned into a streak of light and charged into the fray.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Blade rays whistled. Those body refiners, each armed with various weapons, were felled like timber, either cleaved in half or exploding.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! A torrent of flying swords came sweeping over.
"How slow." Wu Yuan moved slightly, easily dodging the flying swords. Following that, he unleashed another blade ray.
In a few short breaths, Wu Yuan swept away ninety towering body refiners. And the ten qi refiners? They were quickly cut down one after another.
The fallen guardians quickly melted into the ground, their weapons dissolving.
Soon, the passage fell silent.
I passed the practical test of the first stage so easily? Wu Yuan found it hard to believe. These guardians only had a sixth-degree immortal root, and their Dao comprehension was probably just at the third or fourth-level Domain stage (Lesser Law).
In terms of immortal root, Wu Yuan surpassed them by four degrees.
When it came to ether arts and Dao comprehension, there was no comparison. The gap between the two sides was so vast that crushing them was inevitable.
"The practical test is cleared, please advance nine thousand li to proceed to the Dao Heart test location. Advance one thousand li through the test area to clear the stage." The cold voice said.
Without any hesitation, Wu Yuan quickly followed the directions, plunging right into the test of Dao Heart willpower.
On the outside, there was no difference between this place and the previous passage.
An invisible wave of soul power descended. It was not sharp, not aiming to obliterate Wu Yuan\'s soul. But like a giant hammer, it came smashing down hard.
Yet, Wu Yuan\'s soul remained unfazed.
Too weak. It was like a rubber hammer trying to shatter a ton of steel, was it possible?
Wu Yuan sped through the required distance of a thousand li, crossing it in less than a breath.
Stage one, cleared!
