"What a terrible restraint!" Another great saint named Leng Wuchen also had a very solemn expression on his face. A cold light flashed in his icy eyes as he tried to discern the mystery of this space.

A wisp of extremely cold icy air quietly escaped from his fingertips and touched the surrounding void, but it was like a snow lion approaching fire, melting instantly without even a ripple.

"The laws here are strange. Not only do they suppress divine power and isolate divine consciousness, they also seem to be... depriving us of our perception." His voice was low, with a barely perceptible hint of vigilance.

A moment later, Su Rong and Wu Yueling also came in.

"Brother Di, this place is so weird!" Wu Yueling frowned slightly, and her phoenix eyes that could see through the origin of all things were now covered with a layer of mist.

She could clearly feel that the air here was as thick as mercury, and every breath was accompanied by a heavy sense of oppression, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on her heart.

What made her even more uneasy was that she felt that the "borders" around her were shrinking inward at a slow but unmistakable speed.

"Brother Di." Su Rong leaned close to Emperor Shitian, her voice trembling slightly. This was not because of fear, but from an instinctive awe of the unknown power.

"This place... is devoid of any breath of life, but is filled with a majesty that is even more ancient and dead than the Primordial Battlefield. It's as if... a giant beast from the ancient past is sleeping there, and may wake up at any time."

She looked up at Indra, hoping to see a ripple on his face, but Indra remained as calm as the abyss.

Indra's eyes were dark and deep, and the chaotic source of power in his eyes flowed like galaxies. His body formed a domain of its own, isolating himself from all the invisible forces of oppression and deprivation.

He clearly felt that the space here was shrinking slowly and steadily like a living thing, as if a giant hand was closing in, ready to completely crush the intruders.

And at the core of that contraction, a majestic, vast, yet extremely cold and lonely force was slowly condensing, like the eye of a storm, brewing the power to destroy everything.

"No need to panic."

Emperor Shitian finally spoke. His voice was not loud, but it was like a stabilizing force, clearly transmitted into everyone's consciousness and instantly calmed the restlessness and uneasiness in their hearts.

"The tests of the Ares Tower are everywhere. These are just the most basic tests, mainly targeting the foundation of the trial-taker."

He raised his eyes, and his gaze seemed to penetrate the layers of darkness and condensed energy, looking towards the end of the continuously shrinking space.

A Chaos Eye opened between his eyebrows, which was now slightly hot, as if it was faintly resonating with some power deep in this space.

"Is it the power of the Tower of the God of War itself, or... the will of another God of War?" Emperor Shitian said to himself.

Under such enormous and omnipresent pressure, every trial-taker is like a mortal. The so-called power of the holy way is nothing but a joke here.

Even if Indra had achieved Chaos, he could not completely withstand the pressure here, he was just slightly better than others.

As the space continued to compress, the surrounding scenery began to change subtly.

In that pure darkness, a strange blue-black color with a cold metallic luster began to permeate.

The vague feeling of floating under my feet was no longer there, but a gradually solid touch, as if I was stepping on a huge stone slab that was polished to an extremely smooth state and was freezing cold.

King Blazing Flame couldn't hold back his irritation and punched out fiercely!

The wind from his fists carried with him the divine flames that he forced to beat the drum, trying to break the suffocating silence.

However, his punch, which was powerful enough to collapse mountains and split rocks, hit the increasingly solid blue-black spatial barrier, but it was like a drop in the ocean, causing only a tiny ripple before disappearing into thin air.

A powerful recoil force rolled back along his arm, causing his blood to churn and his arm to go numb.

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing!" King Chiyan was shocked and angry. As a saint of the Great Dao, he had never felt such suffocating oppression.

Leng Wuchen and Di Shitian looked at each other and saw solemnity in each other's eyes.

This kind of suppression at the pure level of power is far more intuitive and shocking than any illusion or test of will.

At this moment, the space that was converging inward suddenly paused, as if it had reached a critical point that could not be crossed.

Then, the blue-black metallic light around them suddenly became brighter, and the strong light made it almost impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

An unimaginably powerful suction force suddenly came from the depths of the "ground" beneath their feet, which had become extremely solid. It brought with it an irresistible majesty and antiquity, as if it would suck their souls into the unknown abyss.

This power is so pure and overbearing, as if it is a rule that has existed since the beginning of the world and no living being is allowed to violate it.

Emperor Shitian's eyes narrowed, but the corners of his mouth curled up in a playful arc: "Is your true appearance finally revealed?"

He paused lightly, and the source of chaos stabilized his body like a rock. No matter how raged the terrifying suction force was, he remained unmoved.

He could feel that this force was not simply destructive, but more like a kind of... traction, a calling, leading to the true core of this first layer.

However, surprisingly, a passage appeared in front of everyone, and it was unknown how long it was.

"Enter the trial passage, persist for more than an hour, and find the mechanism for the next level, then you can enter the second level..."

An electronic voice prompted.

It turns out that the test on the first level is not complicated. You just need to persist in the trial channel and find the mechanism for the next level.

But after entering the trial passage, everyone realized that they were wrong.

There are many branches in the passage, and the pressure and suction are more than ten times that outside. If you are not careful, you will be sucked into the branches.

For an ordinary saint, it would be difficult to persist for even a moment, let alone an hour.

Fortunately, all of the four people including Emperor Shitian are extremely powerful. Even Su Rong’s foundation is far beyond that of ordinary people and is not inferior to that of the great saints.

Fortunately, what is tested here is the foundation. If it is a complete test of strength, I am afraid that the Saint of Heaven would have no chance at all.

After entering the passage, the five people were not in the same position.

In other words, you have to rely on yourself to overcome the test here; outsiders cannot help.

Emperor Shitian glanced around, then withdrew his spiritual sense and concentrated on finding the mechanism on the next level.

The pressure here was as intense as a prison and the suction was terrifying, but it was nothing to him.

Not to mention the black and white divine patterns, even the pressure resistance of the Hongmeng body far exceeds that of all the great saints, allowing him to face all pressure.

After stabilizing his body, he used his Chaos Eye to its full potential, and with the help of the system's insight function, he found the mechanism in exactly one hour.

It was a whirlpool of nine colors, dozens of them in total, but only one was correct and it was difficult to tell.
