C96 (1/2)

The one who ascended the platform was a young man who was at the Dao Seeking stage. He wore tight black robes and held a three foot long blade in his hand. His entire body was suffused with a green luster and a faint rune flow.

After obtaining a precise answer, with a face full of ecstasy, he jumped off the platform. Carrying the three-foot-long green mountain, he rushed into the white barrier.

The king of the Northern Tombs stared at this scene with a smile, indifferent and full of spirit.

Everyone was also looking in that direction with rapt attention, paying attention to the black-clothed youth's every move.

Lin Dong's eyes shone brightly as he closely observed the scene. A trace of surprise flashed under his eyes.

The formation was invisible, and apart from the Heavenly Cauldron treasure and the vast expanse of white, there was nothing else to be seen. After the black robed youth rushed in, he did not see anything around him that could attack him.

The long sword was turned around and the sword qi was surging. A divine art was suddenly unleashed. Suddenly, a huge green light fell from the sky.

Sparks flew all over the place as the muffled thunders exploded, but nothing could be seen attacking the black-clothed youth. He seemed to have gone crazy as he continued chopping at the ground. Soon after, he was drenched in sweat.

”According to the location of the treasures in the cauldron, this is only the first stage. He has already activated a divine art.”

Everyone was emotionally moved as they stared fixedly at the black-clothed youth.

Other than the people who entered, no one else was able to see what was inside the barrier, much less know what kind of frightening thing was inside.

However, looking at that black-clothed youth's strenuous appearance, it was likely that there was nothing good in the array formation.

Tap Tap...

Veins popped out on the black-clothed youth's forehead as he used a lot of effort to slash out with his sword. Then, he could no longer withstand it, as if a tremendous force had bounced him off the white barrier.

Although he was sweating profusely and his skin was flushed red due to the explosive force, he was not injured. He was just a bit tired and wiped the bean-sized sweat off his face. Then, he bowed towards the Northern Tomb King and walked back into the crowd with a gloomy expression.

A large group of people immediately surrounded him and started asking all at once, but his face remained sullen the entire time, not saying a single word. In the end, everyone tactfully shut up and bitterly left.

Lin Qi cast a sidelong glance at his black face, shaking his head in fear. To be able to cause such a great trauma to the soul of a cultivator of the Dao Reaching Realm, the items within must be terrifying.

”Who else is willing to give it a try? Anyone who can clear the entire trial can take away all the treasures.” The Northern Tomb King said with a slightly enticing tone. His face was filled with anticipation.

His words caused a commotion among the crowd. The next moment, another person jumped up onto the stage and went straight for the stage.

He was also a Demigod, and his power seemed to be on par with that of the black-robed youth from earlier.

The outcome was without a doubt. Even though he lost, he took one more step forward than the black-clothed youth. He was one step closer to reaching the first treasure.

Then, five to six geniuses from different sects appeared one after another, all returning in defeat. They gloomily walked back to their original spots, like the black-clothed youth, and didn't make a sound.

In the end, an expert at the peak of the realm appeared on the stage. His cultivation base was higher than everyone before him, and he had expended a tremendous amount of effort just to obtain the first treasure.

After obtaining the first treasure, he looked forward with a face full of trepidation. He turned around and walked out without looking back. He did not have the courage or stamina to try and break through again.
