Chapter 1230 - Chapter 1230 Chapter 1227 Bamboo Forest Assessment_1

Chapter 1230: Chapter 1227: Bamboo Forest Assessment_1 Chapter 1230: Chapter 1227: Bamboo Forest Assessment_1 Just now, during the Lava Pool challenge, Chen Zheng from the Mountain Suppression Sect managed to pass as well. However, his progress wasn’t comparable to that of the genius Shi Changhe.

To be precise, Chen Zheng’s victory was mainly due to his good background and support from his senior martial artists, which allowed him to successfully overcome the Lava Pool. If the circumstances had been slightly different, he would not have succeeded.

But Shi Changhe’s strength was different; it was genuine and powerful. When he passed through the Lava Pool, he used bubbles as a technique, which surprisingly sealed the Magma Demon Beasts in place.

This method shocked Yang Chen.

Shi Changhe simply passed through the Lava Pool without even being touched by the Magma Demon Beasts.

In this way, each of the Four Peaks’ most outstanding geniuses managed to overcome the Lava Pool challenge on their own, maintaining some face for their respective sects when facing other forces.

Emperor Hua Wu was the most proud since Yang Chen was under his command. Furthermore, since Yang Chen also managed to pass through the Lava Pool alone, he represented the most exceptional genius of the Northern Territory Sect. As a result, he would gain more advantages when allocating resources at the Trial Tower.

An hour passed.

The Golden Bell Emperor leisurely said, “Congratulations to everyone for successfully passing the Lava Pool. Next, the forces who passed should stay and enter the second stage. Those who didn’t pass can leave now. We from the Royal Family do not wish to hold you up any longer; hope you understand!”

Those forces that failed to pass sighed disheartenedly and ultimately gave up.

Meanwhile, the remaining forces looked at the Golden Bell Emperor, curious about what the second stage would entail.

The Golden Bell Emperor did not keep them in suspense. After everyone who failed to pass left, he simply clapped his hands twice. In an instant, the surrounding scene changed from the Fire Cave to a bamboo forest.

The swiftness of the change left everyone’s mouths agape in astonishment.

“What…?”

“How did this happen?”

Even Yang Chen was filled with amazement. He knew that the Fire Cave could be understood as a product of a prohibition, but the Magma Demon Beasts were real and could not be created by the prohibition, only controlled.

In other words, if it weren’t for the Magma Demon Beasts, Yang Chen could accept the Golden Bell Emperor’s change of scene with a clap of his hands. However, given that they were still in the scene, and that so many people were present, the power of the prohibition was extraordinary.

“Seems like there is always someone better. We must never underestimate the power of the Royal Family,” muttered Yang Chen.

Apart from a few Emperors who remained calm, the majority of martial artists present were astonished by the Royal Family’s capabilities.

This was precisely the effect the Golden Bell Emperor wanted to see.

At this moment, the Golden Bell Emperor chuckled and said, “This bamboo forest is the second stage.”

“Enough with the mystery, tell us the rules of the second stage,” Emperor Pingshan said impatiently.

He was in a bad mood since his disciple had failed the first stage.

The Golden Bell Emperor didn’t bother arguing with Emperor Pingshan and said directly, “There are a total of thirteen Bamboo Demons in this bamboo forest, all created through our Royal Family’s prohibition. Whoever can defeat these thirteen Bamboo Demons will be considered successful in this stage.”

“That simple?” asked Emperor Pingshan.

“Hehe, if you think it’s that simple, Brother Pingshan, let me remind you,” the Golden Bell Emperor responded lazily. “Firstly, only one person can enter the bamboo forest at a time. Secondly, these Bamboo Demons were copied from the prohibitions inside our Imperial Training Tower.”

“What?”

“Copied from the Imperial Training Tower?”

“So, the difficulty of this bamboo forest is equivalent to one of the floors in your Royal Family’s Training Tower?” Emperor Pingshan wasn’t stupid and asked directly.

The Golden Bell Emperor smiled faintly and said, “That’s right. As everyone knows, our Royal Family’s Training Tower is based on a real Creation Ancient Tree. Keeping in mind the supply afforded by the Creation Ancient Tree, the difficulty of the entire tower is much higher than that of ordinary training towers. These thirteen Bamboo Demons correspond to the thirteenth floor of our Royal Family’s Training Tower.”

“Royal Family’s Training Tower’s thirteenth floor…” Emperor Pingshan’s face suddenly paled.

Seeing Emperor Pingshan’s reaction, Yang Chen asked curiously, “Is the thirteenth floor very high?”

This question made many disciples from the Evergreen Peak twitch the corners of their mouths. Only Yang Chen could ask such a question, as, for ordinary disciples, the thirteenth floor was already a significant achievement.

Yang Chen considered more than just that; it wasn’t simple for something to make an Emperor-Level figure like Emperor Pingshan change his expression.

Wang Tong from the side felt a bit embarrassed and said, “Yang Chen, you might not know, but the thirteenth floor of the Royal Family’s Training Tower is equivalent to the fifteenth or even the sixteenth floor of an ordinary training tower. It’s not easy for Earthly Martial Realm practitioners to pass those levels.”

Seeing the reactions of these forces, the Golden Bell Emperor was very satisfied. Everything was going according to the Royal Family’s plan.

“Su Yao, Wei Zheng, Lin Hao, what were your achievements while training in the ordinary Trial Tower?” He Tan asked.

Lin Hao reluctantly said, “Fourteenth floor for me!”

“Fourteenth floor for me, too!” said Wei Zheng.

Su Yao hesitated for a moment before revealing, “I managed the sixteenth floor!”

Emperor Hua Wu then looked at Yang Chen and asked, “What about you, Yang Chen?”

Yang Chen recalled his previous experience in the Trial Tower and said honestly, “I reached the seventeenth floor!”

This result was achieved quite some time ago, and he hadn’t attempted the Trial Tower since. He didn’t know how many floors he could actually pass now.

Upon hearing “seventeenth floor,” He Tan and Emperor Hua Wu sighed with relief, but they both still wore serious expressions.

With his hands behind his back, the Golden Bell Emperor asked lazily, “So, who wants to be the first to attempt this stage?”

“I’ll go first.” Sima Long coldly said, as he headed straight for the bamboo forest without any further explanation.

Seeing Sima Long step forward, people began to whisper and discuss, wanting to learn from his experience in the challenge. However, once Sima Long entered the bamboo forest, they realized that they couldn’t see anything.

As a result, their attempts to learn from Sima Long’s experience were completely in vain.

Time gradually passed…

About the duration of a cup of tea later, Sima Long emerged from the bamboo forest. Judging by his appearance, he seemed calm and composed, indicating his success.

Although the Golden Bell Emperor looked a bit displeased, he still announced, “Sima Long has successfully passed!”

The high-ranking members of the Ling Nu Sect patted their chins approvingly and praised the achievement.
