Dragon Yuan plus system, I, Emperor Shi Tian, ​​sweep across the heavens

In these nine major checkpoints, he met many geniuses from other big cities, made some friends, and also offended many people.

However, most of these geniuses stopped below the 10th day, and there were only three people, including him, who could reach the 13th day.

……

An older, more majestic, yet mechanical and cold voice suddenly rang out throughout the space, as if it was echoing directly in the depths of their souls:

"Three people passed, namely Wu Yueling from Wuting, Hong Tianyi from Tianwu Shengcheng, and Emperor Shitian from Qianwucheng."

"Congratulations, you have reached the 13th level. From this level on, you will be tested for the strongest genius of the witch clan..."

"The 13th test is the soul test. This test will test the deepest part of your soul. Only those with pure souls and strong wills can pass it."

As the voice fell, the space in front of the crowd twisted, and thick gray fog rolled and spread to both sides. A narrow passage emitting a faint blue light slowly appeared in front of the three people.

At the end of the passage, there was an even deeper darkness that seemed to be able to swallow up all light and hope. A breath that made one's soul tremble came faintly from the depths of the passage.

The trial of the witch clan’s strongest genius?

Soul Trial?

The three of them looked at each other, and their hearts were startled.

Those who can reach the 13th level are undoubtedly the most gifted geniuses in the entire witch clan, but they have little experience in soul trials.

The soul is the basis of everything. The divine soul, the primordial spirit, the true spirit... are all sublimated from the soul. Without the soul, everything is false.

To those in the holy realm, physical death is not scary. As long as the soul is still there, it will be able to be resurrected. But once the soul is extinguished, it is all over.

The saying that as long as the Tao exists, the saints will not perish actually has a prerequisite - that is, the soul is still there. Even if the soul is incomplete, there must be soul fragments.

This is because, no matter whether they are saints of the Heavenly Dao or saints of the Great Dao, their primordial spirits are placed in the void and integrated into the Dao. This is the truth behind their immortality.

The soul is integrated with the Tao and exists depending on the Tao. If the soul is extinguished, even if the Tao still exists, how can you awaken and return?

"Emperor Shitian, you must work hard, I believe in you!"

A woman who was incredibly beautiful, as if she had walked out of a myth, reminded Emperor Shitian with a teasing look.

She is Wu Yueling of Wu Court, a true prodigy of the Wu clan. Less than a hundred years old, she has already achieved perfection in the Heavenly Dao and is about to break through to the Great Dao.

Her trial was conducted in the main tower of the Witch Tower. She had always been paying attention to Emperor Shitian and was very curious about his talent.

You know, she is the number one genius in the Wu Court, with unparalleled talent in witchcraft. She has been fully trained by the Wu Court since she was a child, enjoying all the honors and countless blessings.

The person in front of her came from an ordinary big city, was younger than her, and was able to make it to the 13th level with her.

This is incredible.

"Brother Emperor, see you at the 14th level!" Hong Tianyi from the Tianwu Holy City clasped his fist towards Emperor Shitian.

This boy came from the number one holy city in the Tianwu Holy Land. Although his background was not as good as Wu Yueling's, it was not far behind.

His talent was so high that it shocked the entire Holy Land and left countless legends in the Holy Land. However, he was arrogant and ordinary geniuses were not even worth his attention.

But he had some admiration for Emperor Shitian. In his opinion, Emperor Shitian was also a genius with unlimited potential.

However, he is still very confident, saying that we will see each other on the 14th day, which is both a recognition and a challenge.

Emperor Shitian looked at the two of them and smiled: "See you guys in the 14th day!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the deep darkness at the end of the dark blue passage in front of him seemed to come alive and began to surge violently.

Wisps of gray-black mist emanated from it, bringing with it a biting chill and an indescribable sense of oppression, and quickly spread around.

An extremely eerie atmosphere permeated the air, as if countless resentful souls were whispering, making people shudder.

There was deathly silence all around; even the sound of the wind had disappeared. Only the faint throbbing of souls coming from deep within the passage struck everyone's heart.

"Master, the soul power here is extremely strong and dangerous. It is different from anything we have encountered before. You must be careful!"

Xiao Qi's voice rang out urgently in Emperor Shitian's sea of ​​consciousness, with unprecedented solemnity.

Its anthropomorphic image frowned, obviously sensing an unprecedented threat.

Indra's expression was calm, without any ripples in his deep eyes, and he just nodded slightly.

He had long been aware of the weirdness of this place. That power was not simply strong, but also had a corrosive nature that went straight to the origin of the soul.

At this moment, a creepy and sinister laugh came out from the surging darkness ahead without any warning.

"Hehehe... Welcome to my territory, humble intruders."

The laughter was sharp and hoarse, like the friction of metal, and every syllable was like a poisoned steel needle, trying to pierce deep into everyone's soul.

As the laughter sounded, a tall and twisted figure slowly emerged from the darkness.

He was wearing a wide black robe that seemed to be woven from shadows. The robe and hood covered most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes that flashed with scarlet light, full of violence and death.

In his hand, he held a pitch-black sword that was engraved with mysterious runes. Strands of black energy were wrapped around it like poisonous snakes, emitting heart-pounding soul fluctuations.

This person is none other than the ruler of the 13th Heavenly Gate Trial—the Soul Lord, an invincible being who has broken through the half-step chaos!

The difficulty of the last three levels, the trials of the strongest genius, was indeed increased to an unimaginable level.

In the entire Hongmeng, Chaos is the strongest. Ordinary people who have any contact with Chaos will have incredible abilities.

That is an extremely transcendent existence!

"I am the Lord of Souls. This place is the destination of your souls." His scarlet eyes swept over Indra and his companions with a kind of mockery and cruelty as if he were looking at prey.

Before he finished speaking, a golden light flashed in Emperor Shitian's eyes, and the chaotic divine power in his body had been stimulated to the extreme, and a majestic momentum burst out.

"Chaos Law, Immortal Realm!"

With a light shout, the rhythm of Taoism circulated around Emperor Shitian, and countless mysterious symbols of laws appeared, intertwined, and reorganized out of thin air.

A field of laws that was far more stable and powerful than the previous one against the Phantom Lord suddenly opened up with him as the center.

The golden divine light spread out in all directions like a tide, trying to cover the Soul Lord who had just appeared and this strange space.

This realm of laws contains Indra's understanding of all things. It is sacred and majestic, as if it wanted to exclude all alien forces.

"Oh? Interesting." A hint of surprise flashed across the Soul Lord's scarlet eyes, and then turned into deeper cruelty.

He raised the black sword in his hand, the tip of the sword pointed directly at Emperor Shitian: "You want to play with the rules in front of me? Naive!"
