Chapter 1955. A Single Brilliant Feat! (5) (1/2)

In the blurry sky of the Empyrean Trial, the 10th palace that hadn’t shined for tens of thousands of years erupted with bright, golden light. The golden light spread out and filled the eyes of all the cultivators below.

As the golden light spread out, a giant figure seemed to appear. This figure wasn’t Wang Lin, but a shadow filled with endless majesty.

This shadow was very large, like a giant standing in the world. It appeared from the golden light from the 10th palace and soon became more solid.

In a flash, this shadow became clear. He was very handsome, and aside from an ancient aura, he exuded a force that made all celestials worship him.

He wore a golden robe and there was even an emperor crown on his head. It looks like he was looking down upon the world.

The moment this figure appeared, the hearts of the 800 Empyrean Exalts and four Ascendent Empyreans all trembled.

“It is the shadow the Celestial Ancestor left here at the Empyrean Trial!! It is said this shadow separated from the Celestial Ancestor. Even if the Celestial Ancestor dies, it will still exist after being fused with the Empyrean Trial!”

“The 10th palace is the line between Empyrean Exalts and Ascendant Empyreans. Rumor has it that each Ascendant Empyrean is personally titled by the Celestial Ancestor. I didn’t expect it to be true!!”

“He has passed through the 10th palace and the Celestial Ancestor’s shadow has appeared. This Wang Lin had passed the dragon’s gate and from now on is no longer the same rank as us Empyrean Exalts!”

“I got to personally see someone become an Ascendant Empyrean and the Celestial Ancestor personally title them. This trip to the Empyrean Trial was not a waste of time!”

When the giant, golden figure appeared, all the cultivators below became very respectfully and all of them bowed. No one forced any of them to bow, but it was something all the cultivators did out of respect!

“We descendents of the Celestial Ancestor greet Ancestor!!” The voice of all the cultivators echoed in the Empyrean Trial.

Just as all the cultivators below bowed, a figure flew out from the shining, golden 10th palace. This figure was Wang Lin.

This scene seemed to become eternal in the eyes of all the cultivators below.

In the sky, a large and a small, golden figure less than 1,000 feet away from one another were looking at each other.

Wang Lin’s face was slightly pale. When he appeared, he immediately saw the giant, golden figure before him. When he saw the figure, his heart trembled. This was the Celestial Ancestor he had seen twice before!!

His pair of golden eyes were filled with endless majesty, and his gaze landed on Wang Lin. This gaze was filled with an indescribable power and seemed like it was going to completely see through Wang Lin’s every secret.

Wang Lin’s heart trembled. He felt naked under this gaze. He also felt like all his secrets were revealed before this gaze!

Wang Lin didn’t expect this at all. Not even his teacher, Xuan Luo, had expected Wang Lin to arrive at this point in the celestial clan!

As a result, Wang Lin had made no preparations, so all his secrets were going to be revealed. A giant hand appeared in Wang Lin’s mind and quickly flipped through his memories. There was no way to hide anything!

It began searching his memories from his birth!

The entire celestial clan only had 48 Ascendant Empyreans. For the celestial clan, Ascendant Empyreans were very important, second only to the Grand Empyreans.

Even the Celestial Ancestor would have paid attention to these cultivators. Back then, he had already considered that members of the Ancient clan or foreign cultivators would change their aura to come here and even obtain the title of Ascendant Empyrean.

How could the Celestial Ancestor allow this? Being an Empyrean Exalt was fine, but Ascendant Empyreans had to be Immortal Astral Continent cultivators! They had to have been born and raised on the Immortal Astral without any problem. This was also the reason behind the saying that one must pass the 10th palace in the Empyrean Trial to become an Ascendant Empyrean!

Every Empyrean Exalt that had turned into an Ascendant Empyrean had experienced this. All 48 of the current Ascendant Empyrean had gone through this.

This was a test, and if the shadow judged Wang Lin as a foreign or ancient cultivator, the news would immediately spread across the celestial clan. Forget Wang Lin, not even a Grand Empyrean could escape!

The Celestial Ancestor’s shadow wouldn’t attack, but once his secrets were found out, the Ascendant Empyreans or even Grand Empyreans would attack!

Under the gaze of the Celestial Ancestor’s shadow, Wang Lin’s memories from his childhood were being observed. The Heaven Defying Bead that had fused with this soul appeared once more and slowly rotated. A gentle light was released and surrounded Wang Lin, and the bead created false memories for the Celestial Ancestor’s shadow to watch.

No one knew what the Celestial Ancestor’s shadow had seen, but soon, the gaze on Wang Lin became gentle.

After a long time, as all the cultivators below watched, the shadow of the Celestial Ancestor waved his left hand. A scroll appeared out of nowhere and opened like a holy edict.

There were 48 names on that scroll. Eache name shined brightly, and there was pressure coming from the names.
