CHAPTER 527: CHAPTER 526: CHONGXUAN SWORD

"Help you?"

Ling Chen was astonished.

He didn’t expect that Chu Xinghe would actually ask him for help.

"Helping you is not out of the question, but you can’t expect me to act for nothing, right?"

Ling Chen transmitted his voice with a smile.

He had no affiliation with Chu Xinghe, how could he help the latter just because of a single sentence, a single request?

"Young Master Ling, whatever your conditions are, feel free to state them!"

Chu Xinghe said.

No choice, the contenders from the other grand dynasties all had Divine Thought Masters.

Choosing a King Spiritual Weapon should not be too difficult.

But he did not have a Divine Thought Master to use!

Now, these most potent competitors had not truly engaged in battle.

If he lacked a King Spiritual Weapon, then in the competition to come, he would likely fall behind.

"Is that so?"

A thought crossed Ling Chen’s mind.

Originally, he did not wish to help Chu Xinghe.

What did the rivalry between these Crown Princes have to do with him?

He would have been fine just watching from the sidelines.

However, he thought of Ling Wu.

Ling Chen glanced at Ling Wu and then looked towards Chu Xinghe, blandly smiling: "Give me the Ascension Pill, and I will help you choose a King Spiritual Weapon."

"You!"

Chu Xinghe was furious inside.

The price he had paid for that Ascension Pill was substantial, making it impossible to contend for other miraculous elixirs.

And now, to hand it over, wouldn’t all his prior effort be wasted?

He suppressed the rage in his heart and said, "Young Master Ling, can we change the condition?"

"No changing."

Ling Chen shook his head in refusal.

It was the other party who needed him.

If Chu Xinghe did not agree, he had nothing to lose.

"Fine!"

Chu Xinghe finally agreed with clenched teeth.

He had no choice, if without Ling Chen’s guidance, he might end up selecting a superior Spiritual Weapon.

Such level of weapons were of little use to him.

If that were to happen, he would be in an absolutely passive position in the subsequent competitions.

He truly dared not take that risk!

He could only agree to Ling Chen’s demands.

"However, I need your Divine Soul Telekinesis to help me block the King Spiritual Weapon."

Chu Xinghe added another condition.

"No problem!"

Ling Chen nodded.

Using a bit of Divine Soul Telekinesis was nothing compared to acquiring the Ascension Pill, a miraculous existence that enhanced special physiques.

Following that, Ling Chen looked towards the thirty-something spheres of light in the sky.

He needed to pick a King Spiritual Weapon that had an aura similar to his black sword.

He couldn’t let Chu Xinghe benefit for nothing.

"The fifth sphere of light to your left hand side."

Ling Chen said with a smile.

Hearing Ling Chen speak, the crowd cast sidelong glances.

Xia Biluo and the others quickly understood.

Clearly, these two had reached some private agreement.

"Okay!"

Chu Xinghe nodded his head.

Then he spoke to Lord Yan Huang.

"Alright!"

Emperor Yan moved that sphere of light in front of Chu Xinghe: "Are you ready?"

"My lord, please give me a moment!"

Chu Xinghe said.

He immediately burst forth with Spiritual Power.

In his hand, a silver long sword materialized.

Then, he approached towards the entrance of Earth Hall.

With the experience from Ling Chen subduing the King Spiritual Weapon, he also knew

"It’s ready!"

Chu Xinghe’s eyes fiercely fixated on the sphere of light.

Lord Yan Huang promptly withdrew the sphere of light.

"Whoosh!"

A black long sword rushed towards the top of the grand hall.

Feeling the black glow bursting from the black long sword, Chu Xinghe knew that it was undoubtedly a King Spiritual Weapon!

"Young Master Ling, assist me!"

Chu Xinghe shouted loudly and immediately unleashed a swath of Sword Energy, slashing towards the black long sword.

"Alright."

Ling Chen immediately mobilized his Divine Soul Telekinesis, guarding behind Chu Xinghe.

Of course, he didn’t need to help Chu Xinghe subdue the King Spiritual Weapon.

It was enough just to guard the entrance of the great hall.

A quarter of an hour later, Chu Xinghe finally subdued the King Spiritual Weapon.

"Chu Xinghe, congratulations, this is also a lower-grade King Spiritual Weapon."

Emperor Yan said indifferently.

"Thank you, my Lord!"

Chu Xinghe was overjoyed and quickly expressed his gratitude.

However, Emperor Yan didn’t say anything else.

Ling Chen’s eyebrows furrowed.

Lord Yan Huang’s attitude was truly unpredictable!

When he received the King Spiritual Weapon, she had a beaming smile.

But when it was Chu Xinghe’s turn, she was indifferent.

She didn’t even mention the name of the King Spiritual Weapon.

Chu Xinghe returned with full joy.

"Young Master Chu?"

Ling Chen extended his right hand, a fiery eagerness in his eyes.

"Take it!"

Chu Xinghe directly took out a storage ring and threw it to Ling Chen.

"Thanks!"

Ling Chen nodded.

This Elixir was not for his own use, but for Ling Wu.

With his Night Moon Saint Body, that even the owners of Divine Bodies envied, he naturally did not need any Elixir to improve his constitution.

So far, the only function he had unlocked from the Night Moon Saint Body was the horrifying Cultivation Speed.

He didn’t even have the secret techniques inherent to the Sacred Body.

He couldn’t understand what was so special about just being faster in cultivation.

Those Divine Body owners probably had even faster Cultivation Speeds.

He really couldn’t understand how the Night Moon Saint Body had the qualifications to be listed alongside the Divine Body.

"Next up, Xia Biluo!"

Emperor Yan spoke.

Following that, Xia Biluo and others successively chose their weapons.

Among the remaining four cultivators from the Royal Family, all had high-ranking Divine Thought Masters, so choosing weapons was not difficult for them.

As for subduing the King Weapon.

It wasn’t too difficult for them either.

After all, they all possessed Sacred Bodies.

In terms of Spiritual Power, they were even on a par with the average practitioners in the Palace Mansion Realm!

Qin Wudi, Zhou Heng, and Qi Luan all received lower-grade King Spiritual Weapons.

As for Xia Biluo, she was rather fortunate and got a mid-grade King Spiritual Weapon.

Even Ling Chen was a bit envious.

Xia Biluo’s luck was just too good.

Next were the other cultivators.

Most cultivators received King Spiritual Weapons.

Among the three cultivators from the Great Chu Dynasty, only one got a King Spiritual Weapon, while the other two obtained high-grade Spiritual Weapons.

Without a Divine Thought Master, they could only rely on luck.

Ling Chen discovered that among the choices given to the people who followed after the six of them alone, there were actually two-thirds that were high-grade Spiritual Weapons.

As for those from the Night faction, they also had a rich harvest.

Out of eleven people.

Seven cultivators received King Weapons while the other four failed in subduing the King Spiritual Weapons.

Thankfully, Ling Chen took action; otherwise, there might have been more failures.

Liu Qingcang received a set of King Spiritual Weapon bow and arrows.

Originally, Ling Chen thought that Ling Wu might not be able to subdue the King Spiritual Weapon, but to everyone’s surprise, that Spiritual Weapon Short Sword actually acknowledged a master on its own.

Ling Wu turned out to be the most at ease among them.

All in all, slightly more than half of the cultivators got King Spiritual Weapons.

Of course, Lord Yan Huang compensated those who had failed.

He awarded each one a quasi-King Spiritual Weapon.

"Alright, everyone has received their rewards, and you can all take a good rest. In one day, the second trial will start, and that will be the moment for you to show your true strength!"

Lord Yan Huang said with a smile.

The Endless Sea of Fire was only the first trial; obtaining her Emperor’s Inheritance couldn’t possibly be that simple.

About three hours later.

Some more people arrived at the Earth Hall.

Ling Chen looked over and discovered they were cultivators at the eighth and ninth levels of the Primordial Pill Realm!

"What’s going on?"

Everyone was puzzled.

Could it be that the Endless Sea of Fire outside had been removed?

Someone went out to check and found that the Endless Sea of Fire was still there.

Only the power of the flames had decreased significantly.

Of course, Lord Yan Huang didn’t even show up for the second group of people who came in.

Naturally, there were no rewards.
