Chapter 356: Chapter 356: The Ten Ultimate Formations

"Shi Hao!"

Those who recognized Shi Hao immediately cried out in alarm.

Who could have imagined that this overpowering genius was actually Shi Hao?

"He is neither a disciple of a Great Sect nor the heir of a powerful family, why is he so monstrously talented?"

"One can only say it’s genius!"

"Although the cultivation environment in the Eastern Fire Continent is not ideal, we have indeed produced many geniuses. Not to mention the distant past, just a thousand years ago, Gu Shiyun was renowned throughout the world, attracting the Myriad Sects to pay homage!"

"Shush, don’t talk about Gu Shiyun. He had offended many powers before he reached the strongest state, some of which still exist today. If they hear you, you’ll be in big trouble."

"Mm-hmm, let’s not talk about ancient figures, no more ancient figures."

The crowd looked up to see Shi Hao emanating a powerful aura within the beam of light, like a divinity, exerting his authority in all directions.

They all trembled, feeling an urge to kneel down and worship him.

Above the tower, Shi Hao felt a continuous flow of energy entering his body, incredibly comforting.

He had just stepped into the realm of the Four Islands and his cultivation began to rise wildly, quickly reaching the mid-phase, and then the late phase of the Four Islands.

However, the beam of light also dissipated at this time, and a mysterious force acted upon him. Whoosh, his figure immediately vanished.

"Sss, do you remember how long he was engulfed by the beam of light?"

"At least ten times as long as that person surnamed Yun!"

"I understand now. Only if you clear seven trials within a set time can you be blessed by the beam of light, and the duration of the beam likely equals the set time minus the time taken to clear the trials. Hence, the shorter the time to clear, the longer you can enjoy the beam."

"Though it might not be exactly so, it’s roughly the case."

"Hehe, I really look forward to Shi Hao battling Senior Brother Yun now."

"I’m afraid it’s not likely, the one surnamed Yun must be from the Nine Islands, while Shi Hao was only tested for Three Islands before, there’s no way he can match him."

"Ah, still a bit short."

...

Shi Hao, of course, could not hear the conversation of these people. He only saw a blur before his eyes and found himself again in front of a tower.

He looked up and saw a sign that read "Silver Trial Tower" on it.

Around here, quite a crowd had gathered.

Lin Yuyue and others were here, and behind the tower body, only seven rays of light were lit, looking sparse.

Zhang Santian was also there and immediately said, "This tower can accommodate only ten people to undergo the trial at the same time."

Oh, that’s how it is.

So either three people had been eliminated or they had not yet passed the first level.

"The one from the Eight Gods Hall has already cleared the trial," Lin Yuyue also said.

Shi Hao nodded; there was a sequence to entering the tower, so the first person to complete the Three Towers Trial might not necessarily be the first in this trial. It had been said before, the Three Towers Trial is not the end.

Soon, someone cleared the trial, surprisingly receiving a chest before immediately disappearing from sight.

Hmm?

There were treasures to be rewarded as well.

Shi Hao couldn’t help but rub his hands together, starting to look forward to it.

Before long, the remaining rays of light also extinguished one by one, either because they had cleared the trial or had been eliminated.

This place could only accommodate ten people undergoing the trial at the same time, but as there weren’t many people who had come from the Bronze Trial Tower, the wait time was not too long.

Soon, Lin Yuyue and others entered the tower, starting their trials.

Meng Hai and Xiao Hei were still outstanding; this competition was not about absolute strength, but about combat power at the same realm. Hence, although Xiao Hei was just of the Two Islands, he could fully leverage the advantage of the Sword Body, advancing forcefully.

However, he had not yet fully developed his constitution, while Little Sword King, being famous for many years, had almost completely explored his potential, so he was still the first to clear the trial.

Xiao Hei was the second.

The good news was that people like Lin Yuyue and Zhang Santian all cleared the trial, though they didn’t receive any rewards.

No matter, clearing it was good enough.

Shi Hao strolled in and arrived at the first level.

Oh?

He was surprised to find that the opponent was exactly the same as the first level of the Bronze Trial Tower—swoosh—the man struck with a palm, but its power was significantly stronger.

This is the Five Islands.

Shi Hao threw a punch, and—snap—the man lay down again.

Let alone the Five Islands, even if someone from the Nine Islands came, they probably couldn’t withstand a few punches from Shi Hao.

Naturally, he immediately reached the second level.

Snap!

It was still that burly man armed with a sword, who was blasted to the ground by Shi Hao before he could even swing.

The third level, the fourth level, the fifth level—nothing could stop Shi Hao’s momentum, and he quickly broke through seven barriers, arriving at the top of the tower.

A small silver chest descended from above, and Shi Hao reached out to catch it—it landed perfectly in his hand.

Below, many newcomers and some who had failed the challenge were watching clearly, showing their shocked faces.

"A silver chest!"

"Those before him got wooden or black iron ones, even the disciple from the Eight Gods Hall only had a bronze!"

"This guy completed the trials in such a short time, and that’s why he got a silver chest."

"Wonder what’s inside, but it’s definitely very precious!"

"Really want to know!"

"So curious!"

At the top of the tower, Shi Hao immediately opened the chest, revealing a silver paper inside, the material of which was unknown.

He picked it up and scanned it, immediately showing a surprised expression.

The paper contained text, recording a formation, but it was only a part of a larger formation, yet it could function independently—a truly miraculous thing.

"The Array of Ten Extremes, capable of slaughtering immortals!"

At the end, the paper left this phrase, and unlike the previous complex formation symbols, these seven characters were written flamboyantly and boldly, exuding the writer’s wildness and confidence.

Slaughtering immortals?

Shi Hao felt a tingling on his scalp; even Yuan Chengmie had only aspired to become an immortal.

But now?

Here was talk of slaughtering immortals.

Was this a boast?

Shi Hao grew even more puzzled; within the territory of the Tianyun Temple, to unearth such a formation suggesting the slaying of immortals.

—The Tianyun Temple was only a five-star power, after all.

"No wonder even Brother Gu rushed over here, it really is extraordinary."

He pocketed the Silver Paper. Now he had no time to delve into this formation, and moreover, Gu Tong had disappeared somewhere after entering this place, as if he had vanished altogether.

Before he had time to ponder further, the teleportation had already begun.

Swoosh, he appeared in front of the third Trial Tower.

The Golden Trial Tower.

There were still some people gathered outside the tower, but fewer in number, and on the tower, three beams of light were shining; the highest one had already reached the sixth level, but the second highest had only reached the third level.

Buzz—the highest beam suddenly extended by one notch, reaching the seventh level.

He had cleared it.

Suddenly, Senior Brother Yun from the Eight Gods Hall appeared; he stood at the top of the tower, but no column of light descended, nor did a treasure chest appear.

Which meant, although he had cleared it, he had taken too long, so he couldn’t receive any rewards.

Instantly, his face tightened, a mixture of disbelief and anger.
