Chapter 1913 - 1941: The Trial Begins
At this moment, they were completely certain that Tianxing was indeed the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao, and that mark was indeed the Heavenly Dao’s mark.
The Heavenly Dao Mark, even if one surpasses the Saint Realm, is absolutely impossible to imitate.
In no time, all the Martial Artists present had already been marked with the Heavenly Dao’s imprint, and then Tianxing yielded the entrance to the Grand Maze, saying to everyone: "Alright, everyone, the trial has begun, you can go in now. But before you go in, I remind you that the Heavenly Dao is supreme; it does not like rude people..."
"Let’s go!" Soon after, those Martial Artists, their eyes showing excitement, immediately elevated their aura to the extreme, swiftly flying into the Heavenly Dao Maze. Upon witnessing this scene, Long Yu and Jiuyi also became excited, wanting to rush into the Heavenly Dao Maze, but were stopped by Ye Feng.
"Ye Feng, why are you holding us back? If we move slowly, the Primordial Spirit might be snatched!"
Long Yu said anxiously, and Jiuyi also looked anxious, staring at Ye Feng, not understanding why Ye Feng was stopping them.
Ye Feng said calmly: "Don’t worry, the Primordial Spirit is not something obtained by who’s first. Let’s walk in."
After hearing Ye Feng’s words, Long Yu and Jiuyi were very upset, though they didn’t understand what Ye Feng meant. But since Ye Feng said so, there must be a reason behind it, so they chose to follow Ye Feng inside.
Soon, a stick of incense’s duration passed, and almost everyone had already arrived in the huge palace.
As they entered the palace, they saw a gigantic room with nine thousand three hundred seventy-eight seats. The number of seats exactly matched the number of people who entered the palace.
At this time, Tianxing looked at the people who entered the palace and said: "Find your seats and sit down, patiently wait. I will prepare the next stage of the trial. During this time, please wait patiently..."
Everyone nodded, and then they all found their seats and sat down. They discovered that after the Heavenly Dao mark entered their bodies, it formed a number, which was the trial’s identifier.
Some people sat according to their numbers, while others sat randomly.
Because some people felt their positions were too far at the back, they preferred to sit upfront, so they randomly took seats.
Conversely, Ye Feng, Long Yu, and Jiuyi were the last ones to enter the palace and the last to receive the Heavenly Dao mark, so their numbers were nine thousand three hundred seventy-six, nine thousand three hundred seventy-seven, nine thousand three hundred seventy-eight respectively.
Their positions were at the rear, and no one fought for their seats, so Ye Feng and the group sat at the seats corresponding to their Heavenly Dao mark numbers. Long Yu was somewhat anxious: "Ye Feng, why don’t we go and occupy a better seat?"
Jiuyi, beside him, also nodded, knowing that in their view, Ye Feng and the combined strength of the two of them, apart from Emperor Yun Dao Venerable and his group, none of the Martial Artists present could match them.
They could completely occupy a better position, but Ye Feng shook his head and said: "There’s no need... I said, the trials don’t follow a sequence. Since Tianxing told us to wait patiently, just wait patiently."
After hearing Ye Feng’s words, Long Yu and Jiuyi calmed down and waited patiently.
At this moment, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable looked at Ye Feng, a killing intent flashing in his eyes, coldly saying: "Kid, I didn’t expect in just two days, your cultivation reached Proof of Dao’s pinnacle. That truly surprises me."
Ye Feng directly chose to ignore Emperor Yun Dao Venerable and instead sat at his seat, closing his eyes to rest.
Seeing that Ye Feng dared to ignore him, Emperor Yun Dao Venerable showed displeasure in his eyes.
"Trash, didn’t you hear what Lord Dao Venerable said? Daring to ignore him, are you courting death?" At this moment, a Disciple of Cangxuan Alliance at Great Perfection loudly rebuked, but Ye Feng showed a relaxed expression: "You can’t kill me..."
"Shut your mouth! Killing you is easy!" With that statement, the Great Perfection cultivator immediately raised his aura to the utmost, a large machete appearing in his hands, he violently approached Ye Feng.
"Boom~~" But at this moment, in the Void, a purple Lei Ting suddenly descended, carrying a domineering destructive aura, instantly crossing the Void, directly hitting the Great Perfection cultivator.
"Ah~~" Accompanied by a miserable cry, the Great Perfection cultivator hadn’t even touched Ye Feng before being shattered into powder by the purple Lei Ting, completely dead, without any trace of life.
"What!" Everyone was stunned by this scene, not expecting such a thing to happen.
And Ye Feng seemed to have anticipated this happening all along, hence his expression did not change at all.
At this time, Tianxing’s voice echoed in the hall: "Earlier, the Heavenly Dao is supreme; it dislikes rude people. One warning to you all, if something discourteous occurs, you should understand the consequences."
Everyone was taken aback, and Emperor Yun Dao Venerable’s subordinates became much more disciplined, not daring to cause chaos here.
Time passed swiftly, soon a day had gone by, Tianxing hadn’t appeared, while Ye Feng still patiently waited at his seat. At this time, many people became impatient with waiting.
The eyes of Long Yu and Jiuyi also showed anxiety, but Ye Feng calmly said: "Patience."
For some reason, after hearing Ye Feng’s words, Long Yu and Jiuyi became significantly calmer.
At this moment, the temperature in the hall gradually started to rise, and everyone found themselves unable to use True Essence for insulation, as the temperature rapidly increased, quickly reaching nearly a thousand degrees.
Even though everyone was a strong cultivator above the Proof of Dao level, facing this temperature, they still felt extremely uneasy, their hearts gradually filled with restlessness...
