Chapter 880. Wan Er (2/2)
In addition, the most important fact was that when the celestial pool appeared, none of the old monsters even looked at it. This made Wang Lin even more determined about his choice.
Out of the Thunder Celestial, Vice Thunder Celestial, and 36 Heaven Celestials, a total of 17 people chose to enter the celestial pool. In addition to Wang Lin, Nangong Han, Shengong Hu, and Zhan Konglie, along with a dozen or so other people, chose not to enter.
“This is your own choice. Don’t regret it in the future!” Master Flamespark’s eyes swept the crowd. He raised his right hand and pointed forward. There was a rumbling sound as the celestial pool floated into the sky and disappeared.
“Please, the Celestial Bestowment Stone!” Master Flamespark’s shout was extremely respectful. After he spoke, the clouds began to move. The clouds turned into cloud dragons and began circling the area.
Waves of shocking pressure descended from the sky and enveloped the area.
All of the cultivators in the Allheaven Star System stared intently at all of this.
A moment later, one of the cloud dragons flew down from the sky and spat out a stone. This stone was only five feet long, but when it fell, it made the entire Thunder Celestial Temple tremble unceasingly.
Powerful celestial spiritual energy swept the area and began to spread like crazy.
“Thunder Celestial, Vice Thunder Celestial, and 36 Heaven Celestials, I give you the chance to carve you name on the stone!”
Xu Ting’s eyes lit up and he stepped out. He arrived next to the stone, and when he looked at it, he was shocked.
Countless names were engraved on the Celestial Bestowment stone. Each of the names gave off a powerful aura, and there were even many names of illustrious people in the Allheaven Star System. This made his urge to engrave his name on it even stronger. He raised his right hand, searched for a spot, and engraved his name.
At this moment, there was a flash green light. A powerful force entered Xu Ting’s body and pushed him back. Xu Ting sneered and the celestial origin energy inside his body surged. The black mist appeared between his eyebrows and entered his finger. He mercilessly carved on the Celestial Bestowment Stone.
He was barely able to engrave his own name. After he finished, his body felt like it was going to collapse. He retreated few steps and his face was pale.
Wang Lin looked at Xu Ting. The reason why Xu Ting was tired was because a small portion of Xu Ting’s origin soul had split off and was absorbed by the stone. Wang Lin immediately became vigilant.
Master Flamespark nodded. Anyone who could carve their name on the stone had to have shocking cultivation. He was very satisfied with Xu Ting. This person would definitely shine in the battle against the Alliance Star System.
After Xu Ting, the 36 Heaven Celestials all came forward. However, aside from Nangong Han, the six-fingered cultivator, and the big-headed boy, no one else could carve their name on the stone.
Wang Lin was the last person. His eyes were calm as he slowly walked toward the Celestial Bestwoment Stone. He looked at the names on the stone and silently pondered. Wang Lin was naturally cautious. There were many reasons why he didn’t enter the Celestial Pool. Now this Celestial Bestowment Stone made him ponder even more.
His pondering made the surrounding cultivators’ gazes gather. Wang Lin had been very eye-catching in the celestial title competition. When he chose to not enter the Celestial Pool, it set off a wave of discussion. Now that he was pondering before the stone, it caused the surrounding cultivators to make their own guesses.
Not only them, but everyone in the Allheaven Star System who saw the stone became focused and watched carefully.
They wanted to know if this Xu Mu would give up. If he didn’t give up, would he be able to engrave his name on it? Though almost none of them knew the legend or origin of the Celestial Bestowment Stone.
As he pondered, Wang Lin’s eyes lit up. His right hand lifted and his index finger pressed down. A powerful force came from within the stone and bounced his right hand away.
After frowning a bit, origin energy cycled through his body and his finger pressed down once more. This time the rebound force was even stronger. However, origin energy surged into his finger to resist this force.
As a result, as Wang Lin moved his finger, the rebound force became even stronger. In the end, there were popping sounds, as if the stone was about to collapse.
Bursts of harsh light came from the stone. When Wang Lin finished the last stroke, he felt a portion of his origin soul split off and move toward his fight finger.
However, just as his origin soul was about to fuse with the stone, Wang Lin suddenly raised his head. Borrowing the force from the stone, he retreated a few steps and was able to stop the process.
Master Flamespark’s eyes narrowed and he meaningfully looked at Wang Lin. He naturally saw that Wang Lin’s origin soul hadn’t fused with the stone. Even the name engraved wasn’t Wang Lin or Xu Mu, but Master Demon!
“This Xu Mu is indeed worthy of being someone from the Alliance Star System. He isn’t greedy and remains cautious instead!” Master Flamespark withdrew his gaze.
“Now this is the last reward to the Thunder Celestial, Vice Thunder Celestial, and 36 Heaven Celestials. The 38 of you can each make a request. The Thunder Celestial Temple, the Xiang family, and the Gongsun family will do our best to help you! However, if anyone deliberately makes a difficult request, their reward will be cancelled!”
Wang Lin’s mind trembled greatly. He took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down his rapidly-beating heart. His eyes shined like never before. The reason he came here to participate in the celestial bestowment was for this last reward!
“Wan Er…”
