Eternal Holy Emperor

Swoosh swoosh swoosh——

The supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families descended before the nine Trial Emperor Pillars.

The nine Trial Emperor Pillars, excluding the innermost Trial Emperor Pillar, each exterior pillar has a level number ranging from one to eight.

Each of them is ranked within the top hundred of the Earthly List’s supreme talents, proud at heart, naturally choosing not to challenge the lower-level Trial Emperor Pillars but heading directly towards the central Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar.

"Look, the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families are heading to challenge the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar."

"Jiantian cultivates the Taiyin and Taiyang Technique, his swordsmanship has reached an extraordinary level, he might succeed."

"The blade light of the Ancient Luo King flows like a river, stepping into the Great Power Realm at a young age, his potential is limitless."

"The trial beasts are matched by tier. The supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families are within the top hundred of the Earthly List, rumored to only lack the demigod realm, not having reached the Tenth Layer Heaven Perfection of the high-level Young Supreme, unmatched within their tier, perhaps they really have a chance to succeed in the challenge."

"The royal clan’s supreme talents are proud-hearted. Although their cultivation level is not yet comparable to that of the Emperor’s son and daughter, Immortal Dao Heir, they believe that they are not weaker in tiered battles against anyone. Hence, they also believe they should challenge the strongest Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar to prove their invincible stance within their tier, not weaker than the Supreme Heir."

...

When seeing the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families rushing towards the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar, everyone’s attention was drawn to them, including the Five Great Nine Tribulation God Kings, whose eyes were bright and ardent.

Though the trial beast under the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar is the strongest, the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families are high-level young supremes within their tier, only slightly inferior to the Strongest Young Supreme, having a complete chance of succeeding in the tiered challenge.

Ye Chen’s gaze was calm, as his three supreme talents under him slightly shook their heads. Only they truly understood the gap between high-level young supremes and the strongest young supreme; although both are young supremes, the differences are vast.

The greatest example was their difference with the lord.

Boom——

When the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families rushed over, Bai Ze under the central Trial Emperor Pillar slowly lifted its gaze, simultaneously unleashing a terrifying pressure covering the entire area and spreading towards the supreme talents.

Rumble——

The extreme pressure came rushing forth, majestic and overwhelming, the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families changed their expressions immediately, feeling waves of immense pressure like mountains and peaks continuously approaching.

This is the daunting aspect of the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar.

"Ah——"

The supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families roared, their bodies bloomed with dazzling Divine Radiance, divine power surged, and their entire Qi Mechanism climbed to the utmost level to confront the six-layered Great Power’s pressure, the Dao Principles blazed intensely, attempting to charge in.

Bang bang bang——

Bai Ze, with a simple gaze that was infinitely expansive, the terrifying pressure was of the strongest young supreme level, affecting the supreme talents simultaneously, making them feel an endless pressure dropping down, preventing them from taking even one step closer.

Bang bang bang bang——

Ultimately, the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families were struck as if by lightning, each spitting blood and flying back tens of miles before stopping in mid-air.

"So strong!"

Everyone’s expression changed, Bai Ze merely glanced at them and managed to blast the supreme talents of the Six Great Royal Families away, suggesting it might be even stronger than the strongest young supreme.

However, both Ye Chen and the Five Great Nine Tribulation God Kings knew Bai Ze was not this overpowering; rather, each supreme talent faced Bai Ze as if alone, the talents encountered Bai Ze as if facing six Bai Ze, yet when combined, appeared as one.

Moreover, Bai Ze was the strongest young supreme level.

"Weak strength, better challenge other Trial Emperor Pillars," Bai Ze commented, assessing the supreme talents before closing its eyes again under the central Trial Emperor Pillar.

Hearing this, the supreme talents’ expressions worsened, as did the members of the Six Great Royal Families, never expecting their clan’s future hope supreme talents to receive such an evaluation.

Nonetheless, Jiantian and other royal clan supreme talents knowing they had no hope of succeeding in the challenge turned to the Fifth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar.

The first through fourth Trial Emperor Pillars can be chosen freely, but to challenge the higher-level fifth, sixth, and beyond, they must start from the Fifth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar, challenging onwards grade by grade.

Only towards the central Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar can one proceed directly but must withstand the formidable pressure.

The Fifth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar’s trial beast is a Hooked Snake, a creature from mythical legends, whose scarlet eyes bore spiritual intelligence and asked, "Are you planning to come up together, or one at a time?"

Jiantian stepped forward first, saying, "Together? I alone can suppress you, come on."

Naturally, the Trial Emperor Pillar emitted light, transmuting into an illusory Trial World with a grand Martial Arts Battle Platform.

Jiantian and the trial beast were engaged in an intense battle on the Martial Arts Battle Platform.

Boom——

A fierce struggle was erupting.

Jiantian, a super talented individual from the Bone Heavenly Demon Clan, had cultivated all the Great Realms of the Divinity Transformation Realm to the Ten-layered Heaven Level, placing him among the high-level young supremes, making him extremely powerful.

In his hands appeared a pair of Yin Yang Swords, which he reforged after Ye Chen took them from him previously. They were still far more powerful than ordinary Immortal Weapons, unleashing countless terrifying Taiyin and Taiyang Sword Radiance, spanning the heavens and shattering the void.

However, the Hooked Snake was also extraordinarily formidable, its entire body covered in sturdy, immortal-like armor, with deadly spikes, and a tail that had a sharp, lethal reverse hook, imbued with terrifying Daoist Law, glimmering with a razor-sharp cold light, easily penetrating the defenses of ordinary Great Powers.

Moreover, it was a Chaos Holy Spirit from the Mythical Era, although it was only an evolution from the Emperor’s Rule, it was still extremely frightening.

The two were swiftly clashing, with Jiantian’s Yin Yang Swords, even when accompanied by the blazing Yin Yang Law, struggling to break the outer defense of the Hooked Snake, which was the proud capital of a Chaos Holy Spirit, making its defense extraordinarily formidable.

During their intense combat, the entire Martial Arts Battle Platform trembled violently, on the brink of collapsing and shattering completely.

However, Jiantian, being a super talent from the Earthly List, and since the Hooked Snake was only a trial beast of the Fifth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar, could not be too strong. After dozens of rounds, on the Martial Arts Battle Platform, the Hooked Snake was overwhelmed by Jiantian’s Taiyin and Taiyang Yin Yang Sword Qi and was directly obliterated.

Jiantian cleared the challenge.

With a buzzing sound, the Fifth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar shone brightly again, and the Hooked Snake’s figure reappeared, nodding towards Jiantian: "You have cleared the challenge and can enter the Fifth-level Secret Palace, or continue to challenge the higher-grade Trial Emperor Pillars."

"I want to challenge a higher-grade Trial Emperor Pillar." Jiantian, without hesitation, proceeded to the Sixth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar.

Upon seeing this scene, the strong individuals from the Bone Heavenly Demon Clan showed expressions of joy, as they had pinned high hopes on Jiantian, the number one talented individual of the royal family, hoping he could ascend the higher-grade Trial Emperor Pillars.

Although the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar seemed unlikely, the Eighth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar still held potential.

Meanwhile, Tuoba Mo, Ouyang Guhua, the Ancient Luo King, and others also started challenging the Hooked Snake. The super talents of the Five Royal Families all acted, and the Hooked Snake on the Martial Arts Battle Platform simultaneously transformed into five figures, battling each one.

Similarly, after dozens of rounds, the super talents of the Five Royal Families almost cleared the challenge simultaneously, heading straight for the Sixth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar.

At this moment, Ye Chen spoke, "You should also go challenge the Trial Emperor Pillars. You can even attempt the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar, though don’t hold too much hope."

"Yes!"

Aben and others also began attempting the Trial Emperor Pillar challenges.

Almost simultaneously, other talented individuals rushed forward. Among them were Silver Moon God King, a white-robed woman, and several other mysterious and peerless talents, stepping forward, not challenging the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar but starting from the Fifth Grade instead.

"Let’s go too."

Green Phoenix God King sighed softly, then moved first, choosing not the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar, but heading toward the Fifth Grade for the challenge.

Seeing this, the other Nine Tribulations God Kings also sighed and began to move as well.

Regarding the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar, they held no hope whatsoever. They had tried, and all ended in failure.

𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Only those qualified were the Emperor’s son and daughter, the Immortal Dao Heirs. Behind these strongest young supremes, they were mostly backed by emperor clans that dominated the world. Even these Nine Tribulations God Kings had to treat such enormous forces with caution.

Almost in an instant, everyone began a massive surge, all rushing toward the Trial Emperor Pillars, regardless of age, hoping to succeed in the challenge and seize some opportunity.

Even if it wasn’t the ultimate Emperor Dao Inheritance, the hope was to contend for other inheritances, as there were nine Secret Palaces, each storing numerous inheritances and secret manuals of the Ancient Great Emperor’s followers from the past, all of significant value.

"I should set off too."

Ye Chen, shrouded in a black robe, directly headed towards the location of the Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar.

Bai Ze under the Trial Emperor Pillar saw Ye Chen’s arrival, nodded at him, and unleashed the pressure of a strongest young supreme level.

Boom——

The previously calm Ninth Grade Trial Emperor Pillar erupted again with terrifying pressure. Even though other Trial Emperor Pillars were engaged in battles, it drew the attention of many, with everyone looking over.

Including the Five Great Nine Tribulation God Kings as well.

But they all shook their heads, giving a faint glance, initially thinking it would soon end. After all, facing Bai Ze’s supreme young supreme level pressure at the same level, except for the Emperor’s son and daughter and Immortal Dao Heirs, others could not withstand it.

Yet, the next moment, almost everyone was stunned.
