Master Flamespark's voice was calm as he slowly said, "It is this stone!"
The old man named Xiang's expression was gloomy as he said, "Rumor has it that this stone was left behind by the Ancient Celestial Realm. Anyone who can leave their name on it can penetrate the void and enter the Ancient Celestial Realm!
I didn't expect the Celestial Bestowment Stone to be here at the Thunder Celestial Temple! "The old man named Xiang's expression was slightly cold as he spoke.
The middle-aged man named Gongsun calmly said, "Although the Ancient Celestial Realm has disappeared, there is a rumor that countless years from now, the Ancient Celestial Realm will open once more. This time, only those who left their names on the Celestial Bestowment Stone will be brought inside!
Although this is only a rumor, it is the only clue left behind by the Ancient Celestial Realm! "The middle-aged man with the surname Gongsun said calmly.
The surroundings were silent. Aside from a few people, almost no one knew what the Celestial Bestowment Stone was. However, from what the old man named Xiang and company said, they immediately understood how important it was.
However, there were still many cultivators who didn't understand what the Celestial Bestowment Stone was. They all looked at the ancestors of their families.
Master Flamespark calmly said, "The Celestial Bestowment Stone shattered into countless pieces when the Thunder Celestial Realm collapsed. My Thunder Celestial Temple didn't obtain it, so there is no need to dwell on this matter. It was that senior who found the Old Man after collecting the Moon Beast and gave him a palm-sized Celestial Bestowment Stone!"
After he spoke, all the old monsters on the praying mats became silent and no longer asked about this matter.
"There are three trials to enter the heavens and earth. The first trial is the trial to enter!
If you can last for 10 breaths of time, you will pass! "
"Russell, enter the thunder lake!"
As Master Flamespark's voice echoed, a ray of green light came from the distance. The green light turned into a figure before Master Flamespark and company. It was a middle-aged man wearing a green robe.
This person clasped his hands at everyone and said, "This is the order of the Temple Master!"
As he spoke, he took a step and landed on the square. He stood on the square with his hands behind his back. His expression was calm, but there was a hint of pride in it.
His appearance immediately caught the attention of the surrounding cultivators. Some of them naturally knew Russell's identity, and they began to talk.
"Thunder Celestial Temple's Russell!"
"Rumor has it that he reached the mid stage of Nirvana Scryer 300 years ago and has been in closed door cultivation for the past 300 years. I didn't expect him to be the guardian of this trial!"
"This Luo So is not simple, especially the transformations of his consciousness. It is said that even some famous old monsters have praised him!"
Discussions filled the air. Luo Su raised his head and looked at the younger cultivators in the hundreds of teleportation arrays in the sky. His expression was calm as he said, "In my eyes, none of you are qualified to become one of the 108 Immortals. That's because killing you is as easy as crushing ants!
Now, follow my instructions. Whoever I point at, get down here! "
After Luo Su spoke, most of the cultivators in the teleportation formation stared at Luo Su with gloomy expressions. Xu Ting's eyes flashed red, but he didn't speak.
Luo Su didn't waste time. His right hand casually pointed at a cultivator from the northern Luo Tian Domain.
When the cultivator was pointed out, he hesitated for a moment. However, it was in that moment that Russell let out a cold snort and made a grasping motion with his right hand. Immediately, a huge hand appeared, bringing with it a howling gust of wind. As it swept through the area, the surrounding cultivators could feel the gust of wind blowing against their faces.
The giant hand was as fast as lightning. In an instant, it grabbed the cultivator and mercilessly threw him to the side.
The cultivator's face immediately turned pale. He was only at the Illusory Yin stage, so when the giant hand grabbed him, his body immediately turned cold. It was as if all his origin energy had been frozen.
After he landed, he didn't hesitate to sit down.
Luo Su's eyes were filled with impatience. He didn't care about this celestial title at all. If it wasn't for the fact that the Temple Master had asked him to take charge of the first trial, he wouldn't have been able to refuse. He would have gone back to closed door cultivation to reach the late stage of Nirvana Scryer.
In addition, there was another reason that made him agree to be the guard of the first trial.
After capturing the cultivator, the impatience in his eyes became even stronger. He directly spread out his divine sense, and the world around him immediately changed. Luo So's divine sense was extremely mysterious; it could actually transform inside his body. When it spread out, it immediately turned into a golden-armored giant. As it stepped in the air, loud rumbles echoed.
After the giant appeared, he didn't stop. Thunderous rumbles echoed as he walked toward the cultivator sitting on the ground. He was extremely fast, and it only took him three steps to close in. The golden-armored giant even raised his right fist and threw a punch!
This punch was still on the way when the cultivator's face turned pale and his eyes were filled with terror. His clothes were blown back like a gust of wind and his hair fluttered in the wind.
Wang Lin's eyes were like a torch as he stared at all of this. The moment the golden-armored giant's fist landed, the cultivator's body trembled and he coughed out a mouthful of blood. His body flickered and his origin soul was forced out of his body. His origin soul was thrown out of his body and he quickly retreated with terror.
With a cold snort, the giant man withdrew his fist and retreated a few steps. He stood motionlessly beside Luo Su.
"Trash, with your cultivation level and willpower, you are not qualified to compete in the celestial title battle. You are not qualified!" The impatience in Luo Su's eyes became even stronger. He felt that testing this person was a waste of his time.
The cultivator's origin soul returned to his body and looked at Luo Su with a pale expression. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He got up, bowed, and left. The transfer array lit up and disappeared along with the cultivator.
One of the 325 cultivators was missing.
Luo Su frowned as he looked at the cultivators in the sky and casually pointed at one of them. The cultivator he pointed at clenched his teeth and landed on the square. He clasped his hands at Luo Su and respectfully said, "Senior, please enlighten me!"
Russell's expression relaxed slightly, but he didn't say anything. However, the golden-armored giant beside him stepped forward and unleashed the same spell as before, throwing a punch.
The cultivator clenched his teeth and formed a seal with his hands. White light shined from his body in an attempt to stop the giant man in golden armor. However, the white light collapsed under the punch.
The cultivator immediately took a few steps back and bit the tip of his tongue to spit out a mouthful of blood to stop the giant man.
When the golden-armored giant's fist landed on the blood mist, a loud rumble immediately rang out. The blood mist immediately collapsed, and the cultivator's face turned pale. His body swayed, and most of his nascent soul left his body. The cultivator let out a painful roar, and popping sounds came from his body. His nascent soul was forcibly pulled back.
However, doing so had clearly exceeded the cultivator's endurance. Although his origin soul had entered his body, his body immediately withered.
"If you can last for 10 breaths, you pass. However, trash like you will be eliminated in the next trial even if you pass!"
Luo Su waved his sleeve and tossed the cultivator away. His face was deathly pale as he bowed toward Luo Su before returning to the teleportation formation and sitting down cross-legged to meditate.
Subsequently, more and more people were selected by Russell. If they moved quickly, it would be fine. However, if they were too slow, then they would be forcefully dragged down by Russell. Just like the first person who went up, he was injured before he could even take the test.
As more and more cultivators landed in the square, they were constantly called trash. Even the qualified ones couldn't escape being called trash. Gradually, Russell grew more and more impatient. Every time he pointed at a cultivator, the golden-armored giant would punch him.
Time quickly passed. After two incense sticks of time, more than half of the cultivators had passed the test, and 40% of them had passed.
The six-fingered cultivator, the big-headed boy, Nangong Han, and a few others with high cultivation levels passed. Only during the test did Luo Su's expression relax a bit and he didn't call them trash.
"You, come down!"
Luo Su pointed at a person in the transfer array. This person was planet Dong Lin's Xu Ting. His eyes lit up and he revealed a grim smile.
Luo Su's eyes were cold and his right hand reached out. The giant hand immediately appeared and reached toward Xu Ting. The moment it closed in, Xu Ting's right hand formed a seal and black gas surrounded it. It turned into something that looked like an evil spirit. It let out a roar and charged at the giant hand. Xu Ting sneered and charged down. He wasn't going to land on the square to wait for the test. Instead, as he charged down, his hands touched the ground before him and pulled. Thick, black gas formed a spear before him.
There was a flash of coldness in Luo Su's eyes and the golden-armored cultivator immediately charged at Xu Ting. Xu Ting laughed like crazy and turned around. He actually gave up on charging at Luo Su and arrived next to the golden-armored cultivator. The spear in his hand stabbed forward!
The giant golden-armored man swung his right fist, but just as his fist was about to collide with the spear, the spear twisted strangely. The tip of the spear disappeared, and in an instant, the spear turned into a strange black snake. The snake's body was long and thin, but when it opened its mouth, it was several hundred feet long. This scene was far too uncoordinated, and the surrounding cultivators all looked at it with grave expressions.
The snake opened its mouth and immediately swallowed the golden-armored cultivator.
When Wang Lin saw this, his pupils shrank.
"Xu family's celestial spell, snake devouring!" The Xiang family elder nodded with admiration in his eyes.
"That's right. This Xu Ting is probably the strongest contender for the title this time!" An old man beside him nodded and said with a smile.
Not only them, but the surrounding cultivators also learned about this Celestial Art under the guidance of their respective Patriarchs.
"One of the four great spells of the Xu family, snake devouring. This spell is very mysterious, and you should all experience it!"
"If this spell is used against a cultivator with a lower cultivation level, it can devour their cultivation level and turn it into the caster's own power!"
Celestial Master Shimizu's expression was calm as he coldly looked at Xu Ting and didn't say anything.
The coldness in Luo Su's eyes became even stronger, but thinking about how the other party was from the Xu family, he suppressed his anger and coldly snorted. "Qualified!"
After devouring the golden-armored giant, Xu Ting laughed like crazy. He took the black gas that had turned back into a lance and returned to the transfer array. He looked at Wang Lin with a hint of provocation in his eyes.
Luo Su's expression was gloomy as he pointed at the remaining people in the transfer array. This time, his finger landed on Wang Lin.
"You, come down!"
Luo Su's eyes lit up imperceptibly. He already knew what Wang Lin looked like. The other reason he had come here to preside over the first trial was because of Wang Lin!
Wang Lin's expression was calm as he calmly walked toward the square. Perhaps Luo Su felt like Wang Lin was too slow, so he let out a cold snort and his right hand reached out. The giant palm appeared once more and reached toward Wang Lin.
Wang Lin frowned slightly. As the giant palm closed in, it created a powerful gust of wind that swept toward Wang Lin. If he didn't dodge or resist, once he was caught, even if he passed this trial, he would be injured.
Wang Lin wasn't the kind of person who would let others bully him. There was a flash of coldness in his eyes and his third eye opened. As he turned around, the red light spread out in a fan shape and surrounded the giant hand.
He didn't stop and continued to move forward. As the red light surrounded him, a series of popping sounds echoed. The giant palm began to collapse and dissipate. Wang Lin walked out and landed on the square. He clasped his hands at Luo Su and calmly said, "Please enlighten me!"
When Master Flamespark saw this, his eyes lit up. He stared at the red light as if he had comprehended something. There was a hint of appreciation in his gaze toward Wang Lin.
"This child actually has this kind of spell. Although it's not powerful enough, it contains grand dao!"
Shimizu's expression was calm as he looked at Wang Lin and withdrew his gaze.
Aside from the two of them, the eyes of all the old monsters on the praying mats lit up. Only Blood God's expression was gloomy and he sneered in his heart.
Aside from them, only a small portion of the spectators could see how extraordinary the red light from the third eye was. Xi Zifeng's ancestor let out a sigh and muttered, "This person is so young and already has this kind of cultivation. He is not simple!"
Luo Su's expression became even more gloomy. The other party's spell had shocked him. He stared at Wang Lin and his divine sense spread out. The golden-armored giant immediately appeared. This giant gave off a dazzling, golden glow. He charged forward with a force that could shake the origin soul and charged at Wang Lin.
After three steps, the golden-armored giant threw a punch. This punch contained a force that targeted the origin soul. Wang Lin had already observed this. His eyes lit up and his hands formed a seal. Restrictions began to condense before him.
These restrictions were densely packed and stacked on top of each other. However, in an instant, they transformed into a large expanse of restriction symbols that densely covered the surroundings.
The moment the golden-armored giant closed in, these restrictions were released by Wang Lin's finger. Wang Lin's eyes were calm as he said, "Seal!"
Countless restrictions surrounded the golden-armored giant and immediately stuck close to him. The moment the golden-armored giant got close to Wang Lin, he was completely sealed by the restrictions.
From beginning to end, Wang Lin didn't move a single step after landing on the square. He looked coldly at Luo Su and ignored the golden-armored giant that was three inches away from him. He turned around and walked away.
His black hair fluttered as he moved and his white robe made him look extremely elegant. Although his appearance was ordinary, he gave off an indescribable temperament.
Passing the first trial so cleanly caught the attention of all the surrounding cultivators. Xu Ting's eyes lit up as he stared at Wang Lin. There was a flash of red light in his eyes.
Xi Zifeng looked at Wang Lin. Her heart pounded and her face turned red. It was as if the scene of Wang Lin in the Thunder Celestial Realm appeared before her eyes.
"This restriction is very strong!" The six-fingered cultivator frowned as he looked at the sealed golden-armored giant.
There was also the big-headed boy. Although he still had a silly smile on his face, there was a hint of coldness in his smile.
Luo Su's expression was as gloomy as water as he stared at Wang Lin. Two days ago, when he came out of closed door cultivation, he heard something infuriating. His brother had been killed by someone named Xu Mu outside the transfer array in the Thunder Celestial Realm!
This Xu Mu was currently in the Thunder Celestial Temple and was one of the contenders for a title!
There was a flash of coldness in Luo Su's eyes. He didn't want to kill this person here, but he wanted to make sure this person couldn't pass the first trial. This way, this Xu Mu would be teleported out of the Thunder Celestial Temple. That would be his chance to kill!
Luo Su let out a cold snort and his divine sense spread out. The sealed golden-armored giant released a burst of golden light as if endless power had been injected into him. Popping sounds came from his body and the restrictions collapsed one by one.
The golden-armored giant took a step forward and a large, golden sword appeared in his hand. He held the large sword and chopped down at Wang Lin!
At the same time, with Luo Su's divine sense spreading out, not only did the golden-armored giant's body expand several times until it was 1,000 feet tall, but two more golden-armored giants appeared and charged at Wang Lin!
The three golden-armored giants were too fast. They created a storm as they charged at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin suddenly turned around and there was a flash of coldness in his eyes. He quickly retreated and his hand formed a seal. Restrictions appeared before him to block one of the golden-armored giants. At the same time, he raised his right hand and mercilessly chopped down!
Dozens of Heavenly Chops appeared and fused with the restrictions. They pierced through the second golden-armored giant. As for the third golden-armored giant, Wang Lin stepped forward and raised his right hand. The Wither Dao Pair Beast Bones moved and suddenly appeared. The moment they appeared, the world was shrouded in killing intent.
The third golden-armored giant's golden light dimmed and was replaced by a flash of grey light. Wang Lin didn't hesitate to point at the golden-armored giant's body.
With a bang, the golden-armored giant's body collapsed. At the same time, the restriction and Heavenly Chop descended. Thunderous rumbles echoed as the other two golden-armored giant's bodies also collapsed.
However, just as the three golden-armored giants collapsed, Russell made his move!
This was the first time he had taken the initiative to attack aside from his divine sense. He moved as fast as lightning and moved at an unimaginable speed. He closed in on Wang Lin and pressed down with his finger!
The moment his finger pressed down, he erupted with 100% of his cultivation. His peak mid stage Nirvana Scryer cultivation arrived. There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes. It was too late for him to retreat, so he opened his mouth and spat out the Celestial Sealing Stamp to block before him.
Russell's finger pressed down on the Celestial Sealing Stamp, causing it to tremble. Wang Lin immediately felt a powerful force enter his body. This force didn't harm his body, but when it entered his body, it forced his origin soul out of his body. Although it only left his body for three inches before it was pulled back into Wang Lin's body, Russell revealed a gloomy smile. He withdrew his finger and retreated!
"Not qualified!" Russell waved his sleeves as he pointed at the other person in the formation and said, "You, come down!"
Russell's action was a bit risky. After all, this was the celestial competition, and there were many spectators. However, his status in the Thunder Celestial Temple was special, and he didn't think he had done anything too out of line, so he didn't take it too seriously.
The cultivators in the sky that were being pointed at were startled, but they didn't say a word and continued to descend. However, just at this moment, Wang Lin, who had been knocked dozens of feet away by Russell, revealed killing intent in his eyes.
"Not qualified?"
Wang Lin had participated in the celestial competition with the determination to win and rank among the top. Russell's words had touched his bottom line!
If he really wasn't qualified, it wouldn't matter, but Russell had obviously done this on purpose. There was a flash of coldness in Wang Lin's eyes as he closed in and waved his right hand. He didn't even look at the cultivator that was descending from the sky. The cultivator only felt a powerful gust of wind and his expression changed greatly. He immediately retreated and complained in his heart.
"You said I'm not qualified!?"
As Wang Lin charged over, monstrous killing intent erupted from his body. The mid stage of Nirvana Scryer wasn't unattainable. Wang Lin had spent his entire life cultivating and had reached the early stage of Nirvana Scryer. Although he wasn't confident he could battle a mid stage Nirvana Scryer, he wouldn't be willing to just leave like this!
Moreover, with Shimizu here, Wang Lin had no fear!
As he charged over, Wang Lin raised his right hand and Call the Wind filled the world. The black wind roared and covered the sky. Two black dragons appeared and let out heaven-shaking roars as they charged at Russell.
Russell's eyes lit up and he sneered. "You dare to go against the will of the Thunder Celestial Temple!?" He took a step forward and his divine sense spread out. In an instant, nine golden-armored giants appeared.
These nine giants were all 1,000 feet tall. They held large swords and let out roars as they charged at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin laughed like crazy, and this laughter was filled with endless coldness. He pointed at the sky and the Soul Lasher appeared. As the two black dragons roared, the Soul Lasher lashed out and a thunderous rumble echoed.
The Soul Lasher moved like crazy, and as it lashed out, three golden-armored giants collapsed!
Filled with killing intent, Wang Lin charged at Russell!
Russell stared at the Soul Lasher and his expression changed slightly!
There was a flash of coldness in Shimizu's eyes and he muttered, "Now this is more like a disciple of my teacher, Bai Fan!"
Third place on the overall ranking. Thank you everyone. The three updates during the battle will affect the quality.
