Chapter 4008: Black Heaven Stone
Everyone was curious. Which clansman of the Donglin Imperial Clan was so awesome?
It was either the Imperial Son or the Imperial Daughter. Furthermore, he or she must be from the present generation. Otherwise, the old Sect Master would have had a nostalgic expression on his face, and not this incredibly proud expression.
Who exactly was it?
Yet a thought flashed through Ling Han’s mind, and he thought of someone.
Chi Menghan.
Though he had only come into contact with her soul, Ling Han had a feeling that this woman was very strong.
“Hehe, young friends, come on.” The old Sect Master withdrew his smugness, and beckoned everyone over.
“I’ll go!” Immediately, a man walked out. He was in the middle stage of the Core Formation Tier, and couldn’t be considered the strongest among them. However, this Black Heaven Stone was only a test of potential, and cultivation level wasn’t the key.
“How about this? Each person has three chances to make a move,” the old Sect Master said. “Among the three chances, take the one with the best result. However, after the first time is over, don’t drag things out any longer.”
“Understood,” the man replied with a nod. He then composed himself before throwing another punch at the Black Heaven Stone.
This punch was really terrifying. He had even stimulated high-level energy. Multiple patterns lit up, and there were also multiple shattered seals, exuding an incredibly terrifying aura.
Boom!
When this punch landed, a fierce light suddenly exploded on the Black Heaven Stone, as if nothing could be seen clearly even if one’s eyes were open.
After a while, the brilliance dispersed completely, and the man still maintained the posture of having his right fist land on the Black Heaven Stone, while the Black Heaven Stone was completely unmoved.
This surprised everyone. That was because the Black Heaven Stone was only laid out on the ground, and had not been fixed with any kind of technique, but such a fierce punch actually did not move it in the slightest.
Something that the Saint had once used was really that amazing.
Everyone looked again, and saw that multiple stars had also lit up on the Black Heaven Stone. Upon counting, there were a total of three stars, and the third one was still flickering, as if it would dim at any moment.
However, in the end, this star still stabilized, and maintained its brightness.
Three Stars!
The man immediately looked disappointed. Though from the experience of the Donglin Imperial Clan, his future accomplishments would be at least Sect Master, he was one of the top hundred of the Galaxy Network, and Sect Master was definitely not his ultimate goal. “Hehe, young friend, you don’t have to be concerned. There are still two chances,” the old Sect Master said. “You’re allowed to use the Spirit Tool, but it can’t be activated.”
Allowing the use of a Spirit Tool was to ensure that those who were skilled in using weapons would not be at a disadvantage, and the fact that it could not be activated was also for the sake of fairness. That was because added with one’s own power and the power of a Spirit Tool, battle prowess would definitely soar greatly.
This wasn’t a competition of Spirit Tools.
The man nodded, and took out a sword. After standing quietly for a while, he had already accumulated enough power, and struck out with the sword again.
It was still three stars, but this time, the third star did not flicker continuously. Instead, it had long since stabilized.
The man refused to give up, and delivered another powerful strike. In the end, it was still only three stars, and he was not even able to make the fourth star flicker for a moment.
He was defiant, and was just about to deliver another strike, when someone pushed him aside.
“Trash, step aside.” The person who pushed him was a burly man. His right hand pushed the person away, while his left hand delivered a palm strike.
Barely four stars!
Previously, the man had wanted to flip out, but when he saw that the other had actually activated his fourth star, his aura instantly weakened. Added with the fact that the old Sect Master’s sharp gaze was already directed at him, his heart trembled, and he chose to swallow his anger.
In the end, the sturdy man’s result was still four stars after three strikes.
This was not an easy feat. If he worked harder in future, he may even be able to become a Venerate.
Everyone stepped forward to undergo the test, one after another. They could see that the majority of them were Three Stars, and only a rare few could reach Four Stars. This caused those who had achieved a result of Four Stars to look pleased.
The mother tree’s celestial fruits were in sight.
Slowly, the majority had completed the test, and only a few people were left.
These people were either keeping a low profile or wanting to show off.
Ling Han was also among them, but he naturally didn’t think that he was showing off. Really, he was just keeping a low profile.
“Let me take the lead.” Zhu Yixiu walked out. He was ranked fourth in Core Formation Tier on the Galaxy Network, and was also the top Core Formation Tier of the East Heavenly Realm.
Thus, when they saw him walk out, those who had achieved a result of four stars all showed expressions of interest.
This person was a great rival.
After Zhu Yixiu focused slightly, he immediately sent out a palm strike. Boom, the Black Heaven Stone exploded with light, soaring into the skies, making everyone dumbfounded and feeling an indescribable fear.
If this attack landed on him, would he be able to survive?
However, Zhu Yixiu was indeed so strong, firstly, because of his natural talent, and secondly, because he had reached the consummate level of the Core Formation Tier. Probably, he could take that step at any time, and become an elite of the True Self Tier.
However, it wasn’t long before five stars lit up on the Black Heaven Stone!
Hiss, five stars… this only meant that his natural talent was indeed superior to others, and his potential was astonishing.
As long as this guy did not die, he would definitely become a Venerate in future. Everyone looked envious. Now, there were only about ten people left that had yet to be tested. Then, if he achieved a result of five stars, it meant that he would definitely be able to win a ticket into the Donglin Imperial Clan.
Yet Zhu Yixiu was very dissatisfied with this result. He was actually only a five-star genius?
It should be known that someone from the Donglin Imperial Clan had achieved a result of seven stars. Compared to them, was the gap that wide?
He did not believe it.
Zhu Yixiu drew out a purple-gold staff. This was a Three Star Spirit Tool, but he did not activate it. Instead, he directly channelled out the Saint Technique, and then smashed the
staff onto the Black Heaven Stone.
Five Stars… and it was still only five Stars.
After using the Saint Technique, his battle prowess had directly increased by twofold, and it
was still only five stars?
“Hehe, this is only a test of potential. Thus, using the Saint Technique, or even an Imperial Technique Technique would not add much points,” the old Sect Master said with a smile.
When these words fell, everyone immediately dismissed the idea that the prodigy from the Donglin Imperial Clan had relied on Imperial Techniques to add points.
Zhu Yixiu launched a third attack, but there was no change to the result. It was still five stars,
so he could only step aside.
This was the best result so far, but Zhu Yixiu didn’t look very happy – if no one’s best result was seven stars before, then he would definitely be proud now, because he had suppressed all
the other prodigies.
“Let me give it a try.” Yi Yuanrong walked out. She was stronger, ranked third in Core
Formation Tier on the Galaxy Network, adn was the top Core Formation Tier of the West Heavenly Realm. Her battle prowess was also twenty plus Heavens, at least.
She used a kick. Peng, her kick landed on the Black Heaven Stone, and instantly, a brilliance
exploded.
Five Stars.
Yi Yuanrong frowned slightly. Initially, she had the confidence to surpass Zhu Yixiu. At the very least, she would be able to make the sixth star flicker. She had not thought that it would only be the same result as Zhu Yixiu’s.
She drew out her Spirit Tool, and used the most powerful technique to fire two more times. The result was that both were five stars.
This time, everyone was stunned. As it turned out, even Galaxy Network’s top prodigies could
only shoot out five stars. Then, the person from the Donglin Imperial Clan was too terrifying,
wasn’t he?
As expected of the Imperial Clan.
