Chapter 1465 What kind of trial is this? This is clearly a trap!
They walked in silence, with only the soft sound of their footsteps echoing slowly.
As the group moved forward, the oppressive aura surrounding them grew stronger and stronger. Their hearts beat faster and faster, their bodies felt heavier and heavier, their footsteps became heavier and heavier, and they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Even the three city lords felt as heavy as a thousand pounds with each step they took, and their walking speed was getting slower and slower.
Jiang Han, though at the very front, faced the most intense pressure alone, yet he remained unfazed, stepping forward with firm and steady steps, seemingly unaffected in the slightest.
Such a mindset naturally made everyone sigh at the gap between the two sides again, but as they turned a corner, the world in front of them suddenly opened up, and a huge throne radiating seven-colored light instantly came into everyone's view.
It was a massive, seven-colored throne, as large as a mountain, its surface shimmering with colorful light, as dazzling as a sun, facing the crowd, placed in the center of the hall.
The crowd was momentarily blinded by the colorful light, and hurriedly took a few steps back, raising their hands to shield their eyes from the glare. It took them a long time to adjust.
Looking down from the throne, there was a seven-colored stone path over a thousand feet long and several tens of feet wide, leading down to the feet of the crowd.
On both sides of the stone path, every ten feet or so, there was a ball of light of various colors floating motionless, extending along the stone path all the way to the foot of the throne. At a rough glance, there were no fewer than a hundred of them.
Although those orbs of light were motionless, they seemed to be alive, emanating a powerful aura, each one stronger than the demon king outside.
The closer the sphere of light was to the throne, the more profound its aura became, and the greater its power.
At the very back of all the orbs of light, beneath the throne, floated a millstone-sized orb of light. It was entirely blue-black, yet faintly radiated a seven-colored glow, and its majestic aura surpassed that of all the other orbs of light in the area.
Above the ball of light, on the throne, was a huge, seven-colored sun disc, silently suspended.
More than a hundred pressures converged into one, forming an extremely powerful pressure that swept outwards, crashing down on everyone like a tidal wave, threatening to pulverize everything in front of them!
Qin Yu's body stiffened, and he let out suppressed gasps. Under that terrifying pressure, he felt as if he had become a tiny ant facing the blue sky, and that the heavenly might could crush him into dust with a single move.
The lake surged with huge waves, and the blue lotus swayed wildly in the water, as if it had been hit hard, letting out a groan of unbearable pain.
A drop of cold sweat silently slid down his forehead, fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, making a crisp dripping sound.
The sound was extremely faint, but in the vast hall, it resonated like the sound of bells and drums, shaking one's very soul.
"Snapped--"
The sound spread far from beneath everyone's feet, reaching towards the throne.
Wherever the sound waves passed, the light spheres were stimulated and began to vibrate, shining with increasingly dazzling colors.
Everyone was shocked and realized something was wrong.
The sheer, unconscious pressure they felt just moments ago was enough to shake their very souls, demonstrating the terrifying power of the monsters here. Now that another unexpected event has occurred, if they don't escape soon, something terrible might happen!
But just as everyone panicked and tried to call out to Jiang Han, they saw that he simply stood quietly in the waves, calmly watching the changes unfold, without the slightest sign of panic.
For some reason, upon seeing Jiang Han's composure, the panic in everyone's hearts gradually subsided, and their hearts inexplicably calmed down.
"Is it some kind of secret technique to soothe the mind?"
Su Qian thought to herself, feeling even more that Jiang Han was unfathomable.
Before she could relax, the orbs of light in the arena grew brighter and brighter, and finally exploded in front of everyone's solemn gaze.
Wow!
There was no earth-shattering roar; it was as if a water ball had splashed open, and countless rays of light quickly emerged and swirled within those light clusters, instantly coalescing into phantom images of demonic beasts.
With a series of popping sounds, one ball of light after another exploded, and powerful, unnamed monsters emerged from within, landing on the ground and letting out excited roars.
"Roar!"
A tremendous roar echoed wildly, filled with the excitement of seeing the light of day again, accompanied by bursts of demonic energy that shook the very ground beneath their feet.
Just then, as if disturbed by the roars, the blue-black sphere of light floating beneath the throne finally moved slightly.
Then, it bloomed in mid-air like a cluster of dark blue lotus flowers, its petals slowly unfurling, and from within it a somewhat displeased voice rang out:
"It's noisy."
The moment those three words were uttered, the hall fell silent.
The initial excitement and madness vanished completely at this moment. All the demon kings shut their mouths, forcibly swallowed their roars, and bowed their heads to the ball of light with trembling bodies.
In this eerie silence, within the blooming lotus, strands of blue-black silk threads spun and gathered in mid-air, gradually coalescing into a gigantic unicorn beast.
This beast is a hundred feet tall and resembles a tiger or leopard. It has a single seven-colored horn on its head, and beneath the horn, a layer of purplish-black scales covers its scalp and extends to its nine long tails.
Its face wore a bewildered expression, as if it had just woken up, but its vertical pupils were indifferent and ruthless, constantly radiating a cold chill.
The remaining lotus flowers all transformed into light and merged into its body. The enormous demonic body floated down from mid-air, swaying slowly on the ground. A pair of pale-colored eyes slowly rose, looking over the demon kings below and at Jiang Han and the others standing at the end of the stone path.
"Since you've managed to get this far, you must be the imperial princes who are preparing to receive the inheritance."
Its voice was deep and resonant, with a slight vibration spreading out as it spoke. Just hearing it made one's blood run cold, one's breath catch, and one's heart pound wildly.
Not to mention, as the ferocious beast spoke, the other hundred or so demon kings also turned to look.
In an instant, a terrifying pressure crashed down like a towering wave, and the hearts of the crowd, which had just calmed down, roared again. The green lotus shook violently, their Dao hearts trembled, their legs went weak, and they couldn't help but retreat backward with fear on their faces.
"Demon Kings! Demon Kings! So many Demon Kings! Is this really a trial for inheritance? Or is it some kind of trap?!"
Qin Yu's vision went black from the pressure, and his heart felt as if it had been struck by a huge rock, instantly creating a raging storm that shook the green lotus and almost tore it apart.
At this moment, he felt as if he were facing countless immortals from the upper realm. His legs went weak and kept bending downwards. If it weren't for his strong Dao heart and the fact that he held onto the wall with both hands, he would have knelt down on the spot.
