CHAPTER 525: CHAPTER 525: ENTANGLEMENT

Upon hearing this, Ling Chen immediately halted his steps.

Everyone turned to look at Lord Yan Huang.

"The trial shall end here!"

Lord Yan Huang said with a smile, "Now, you can enter the Earth Hall."

Following this voice, the gates of the Earth Hall finally burst open.

Before the Earth Hall had opened, everyone could only wait here.

"Good!"

The crowd hastily nodded and with fiery eyes, they proceeded toward the Earth Hall.

About thirty or forty cultivators passed through the Endless Sea of Fire trial.

Among them, Cultivators of the Night had the most.

Eleven in total.

The others were cultivators from the five great Royal Families.

The most from one family was six, and the fewest was four.

These cultivators were nearly all at the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm.

They are the strongest force beneath the Kings of the Palace Mansion Realm.

Aside from Xia Biluo and other five Crown Princes, Ling Chen, Ling Wu, and Liu Qingcang, the rest were all in the late phase of the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm.

"Please wait, the first six cultivators who crossed the Endless Sea of Fire."

Lord Yan Huang spoke once more.

"Yes."

Ling Chen and the others immediately responded.

The first six that Lord Yan Huang spoke of were none other than Ling Chen and the five Crown Princes.

They were the only ones who had crossed over on their own strength.

Although one of the cultivators brought by Liu Qingcang and Chu Xinghe even arrived earlier than Xia Biluo and the others, these two did not rely solely on their own strength to get there first, and thus did not count.

Lord Yan Huang flicked his fingers repeatedly.

Six streaks of light shot towards the six individuals.

In the end, the six streaks of light turned into six Green Lotus Marks, which branded on the foreheads of the six people and then disappeared without a trace.

"You may go now!"

After speaking, Lord Yan Huang’s figure transformed into specks of light and dissipated.

"What is this?"

The six people, including Ling Chen, wore faces of surprise.

Of course, they felt something unusual on their foreheads, as if something was embedded within, but they only felt a slight sensation when the Green Lotus Mark entered.

After the Green Lotus Mark disappeared, they no longer felt anything.

Lord Yan Huang departed very quickly, not even leaving them time to ask questions.

"Let’s go!"

Ling Chen glanced at Xia Biluo and then flew towards Liu Qingcang who was not far away.

Liu Qingcang did not enter the grand hall first like the others.

Instead, he stayed here waiting for Ling Chen.

Worried that Xia Biluo and others might deal with Ling Chen.

Xia Biluo and the others likewise flew towards the Earth Hall.

The Earth Hall.

This palace was much smaller than the previous Human Palace.

Inside the grand hall, there was nothing.

It was just an open space.

When the group of more than thirty people gathered once again, Lord Yan Huang’s figure reformed.

"You have passed the first trial of the Endless Sea of Fire; here is your reward."

Lord Yan Huang said with a smile.

"Reward?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was immensely excited.

Previously, upon entering the Emperor Yan Realm, the gifts given by Yan Huang to them were at least third-tier Elixirs, superior Spiritual Weapons, and superior Heavenly Spirit Techniques.

Even the most generous gifts were magical Elixirs.

They were at least fourth-tier Elixirs.

Now, having passed the first trial, the rewards ought to be even more generous, right?

At this thought, how could everyone not feel excited?

"The reward for this trial is King-grade Spiritual Weapons."

Lord Yan Huang said with a smile.

"What?!"

"King-grade Spiritual Weapons?"

"Is it actually King Spiritual Weapons?"

...

The hearts of the crowd were so excited they could nearly burst out of their chests.

It should be noted that previously, those who entered this place, such as the group led by Xia Jiuyou and others, received valuable treasures that were King Spiritual Weapons and King Spirit Techniques.

And now, they had only passed the first trial and they were already eligible to receive such generous rewards?

"Indeed!"

Emperor Yan seemed to sense the expressions of the crowd and said indifferently, "King Spiritual Weapons, unlike ordinary Spiritual Weapons, already possess the ability to choose their own masters. Whether you can gain the recognition of a King Spiritual Weapon depends on your abilities."

"Is it really that magical?"

The crowd was inwardly amazed.

Most people had never truly seen a King Spiritual Weapon, so naturally, they were unaware that King Spiritual Weapons had such extraordinary functions.

They could actually choose their own masters freely.

"King Spiritual Weapons are generally only controllable by those in the Palace Mansion Realm who are Kings. It is extremely difficult to subdue a King Spiritual Weapon in the Primordial Pill Realm. So, give it your best effort!"

Emperor Yan said with a smile.

After speaking, she gently swiped her right hand in front of her.

Suddenly, dozens of differently colored orbs of light emerged.

Within each orb of light, there was a weapon.

Spears, longswords, short swords, sabers, hammers, and various other weapons were all present.

Of course, there were mostly swords and sabers among the weapons.

"Alright, the order of weapon selection will be based on the sequence in which you passed through the Endless Sea of Fire. A reminder, although the reward for this challenge is a King Spiritual Weapon, there are naturally some weapons among these that are not King Spiritual Weapons. Although few, you must also choose carefully!"

Emperor Yan said with a smile.

"As expected!"

The crowd revealed a bitter smile.

They said that even if it was a reward, it probably wouldn’t be that simple.

These orbs of light looked almost identical.

It was impossible to sense the aura of the weapons they encased.

At this moment, Emperor Yan’s gaze turned towards Ling Chen, "You, go first."

Hearing that Ling Chen was first, Xia Biluo and others let out a sigh of relief.

They still had time to consider how to identify King Weapons.

Moreover, they could also learn from the methods of the first few people!

"Yes."

Ling Chen nodded indifferently.

"What weapon do you need?"

Emperor Yan asked.

"Longsword."

Ling Chen said loudly.

"Good!"

Emperor Yan nodded, flicked her jade hand, leaving only dozens of longswords while the other weapons disappeared from sight.

"You may choose now."

Emperor Yan spoke again.

"Good!"

Ling Chen nodded, and his gaze immediately turned towards the dozens of orbs floating in the air.

From the surface, it was impossible to sense the aura of the longswords within the orbs.

Naturally, it was impossible to determine whether they were King Spiritual Weapons.

"Divine Soul Telekinesis!"

Ling Chen instantly mobilized his Divine Soul Telekinesis, probing towards the orbs.

Indeed, the Divine Soul Telekinesis instantly penetrated the orbs and entered, facing the longswords within directly.

Although he had never truly seen a King Spiritual Weapon, this didn’t prevent him from distinguishing them.

Because he was familiar with high-grade Spiritual Weapons!

With Lord Yan Huang’s extraordinary capabilities, lower or medium-grade Spiritual Weapons would simply not be presented.

The lowest would at least be high-grade Spiritual Weapons.

As long as he could determine that the longsword was not a high-grade Spiritual Weapon, then it was undoubtedly a King Spiritual Weapon.

"This one should be a King Spiritual Weapon!"

Ling Chen probed the first orb.

This longsword was completely different from high-grade Spiritual Weapons; it had an astonishing aura.

Then, Ling Chen mobilized his Divine Soul Telekinesis, starting to identify them one by one.

"King Spiritual Weapon!"

"King Spiritual Weapon!"

...

Ling Chen probed more than twenty orbs in total, among which sixteen were King Spiritual Weapons, and only four were high-grade Spiritual Weapons.

He compared these sixteen King Spiritual Weapon Longswords.

He found their auras to be diverse.

Not being familiar with King Spiritual Weapons, he naturally did not know which had a slightly higher grade.

King Spiritual Weapons also have grades.

Divided into high-grade, mid-grade, and low-grade.

"Which one should I choose?"

Ling Chen was also caught in a dilemma.

Kiing Spiritual Weapons of different grades had different powers.

He certainly hoped to choose a better King Spiritual Weapon.

While he was in a dilemma, Ling Chen probed through the remaining orbs once again.
