Heaven’s Test…
What is a test?
Su Ping was wreathed in golden light as he floated in the sky, completely devoted to his own world. He scrutinized the aura of the mysterious test and tried to find its source.
He could harness the test’s power and use it to attack if he could grasp the mysteries behind it!
As he continues analyzing, Su Ping gradually found that the source of the test was not based on laws, or at least not the laws he understood.
The test went deeper than laws. It contained the power of laws and superseded them, like some sort of order…
There was no telling how long it had been. Su Ping tried his best to get to the bottom of all those mysteries within the best of his abilities. However, he felt that he had just touched the test’s surface…
The more he studied, the more he understood its magnificence, and the power of the heavens behind it!
I can’t explore any further…
Su Ping’s consciousness quickly returned. He felt that he would infuriate the heavens and end up being vaporized if he kept on exploring; the level was too high for him to explore just yet.
That being said, the exploration was not entirely futile. He had grasped a feeling of the test and could fused it in his sword technique, attacks or body movement techniques.
Su Ping opened his eyes and looked at the lightning bolts that were still roaring crazily above his head.
His eyes were completely filled up by purple colored, dazzling lightning bolts. He felt less and less pain, as his body was strengthened by them, and the Golden Crow blood was better integrated with his body!
My resistance to lightning seems to have improved…
Su Ping detected the drastic changes that happened to his body during the test.
Most of the lightning power had been blocked by his body. What had damaged him mostly was the test’s power imbued in it.
The astral power in his cells had also been stimulated by the lightning. His status was even better than before the test; the lightning strikes were like tonics to him.
This should be over now… Su Ping looked at the rolling clouds in the sky, which weren’t as dense as before. The energy contained in them seemed to have been mostly consumed.
As he thought of that, the consecutive lightning strikes stopped. The next moment, all the clouds in the sky were gathered and compressed.
An intimidating vibe was spread out as the clouds were being packed up together.
Even Su Ping’s expression changed a bit; he narrowed his eyes as he looked up.
Ji Yuanfeng and the other humans—as well as the Fate State beasts—were all slightly frightened. All of them sensed that the energy inside the clouds was enough to shatter the continent, if not the planet!
The Lord of the Deep Caves, which was absorbing astral power in the distance, was also moved by this development.
Even though it didn’t sense any power of laws, the strike was already at the Star State level in terms of raw energy!
It didn’t expect Su Ping to face such a horrifying test while still breaking through to the legendary rank. The Thousand-eyed Demon Beast had indeed played a part, but the strike wouldn’t have been too weakened even without it.
“Bring it on!”
Su Ping opened his hands with divine light gathering in his eyes and the dark sword in his hand.
The Golden Crow’s divine tattoo on his back became even brighter. Fumes of black demonic air were also spouted from the bottom of his wolf feet!
He invoked the Solar Bulwark and unleashed a tremendous amount of demonic aura.
A gigantic vortex that was a hundred kilometers in diameter appeared in the clouds above Su Ping’s head; lightning and storms were raging inside it.
Boom!
A pillar of lightning that was three thousand meters in diameter descended like a dragon!
Instead of moving back, Su Ping stepped forward with his silver hair flying, going straight for the lightning and slashing with his sword, with his brilliant golden body floating over the dark demonic air.
A sword aura that was more than a thousand meters wide clashed with the pillar of lightning and caused a deafening shockwave!
The enormous pillar of lightning was cut apart and then swept close all the same, descending over Su Ping’s body.
After a resounding boom, the ground under Su Ping’s feet was struck hard, producing a massive crater similar to a volcanic eruption. The buildings nearby were shattered into pieces.
Ji Yuanfeng and the other humans were already hiding at a distance and watching nervously.
The Inferno Dragon—which had been defending Su Ping—disappeared from its former position in the sky when the pillar of lightning fell; Su Ping recalled it by force.
Even if the Inferno Dragon was willing to, Su Ping was still able to forcefully recall it in his current status.
The thunder gradually died down.
The clouds above everybody’s heads seemed to have finally run out of power. They gradually dispersed and revealed the blue sky.
There was light in the world again.
Everybody looked at the place where Su Ping was hovering when the clouds dispersed. They instantly saw that he was still there, sword in hand.
The divine light had faded from his body, and his blood was gushing out, dripping from his fingers and running through the blade, then all the way to the ground.
“Mr. Su!”
Xue Yunzhen and all the others were shocked by Su Ping’s heavy wounds!
Once it saw the outcome, the Lord of the Deep Caves grinned and declared, “You’re dead!”
It instantly stopped absorbing the astral power and unleashed a demonic aura. It could finally kill Su Ping, since the Heaven’s Test was no longer in the way.
It had half recovered its strength by absorbing the thick astral power that had been locked for a thousand years; it was a perfect moment to attack.
“He’s dead!”
“I didn’t expect the last lightning strike to be so horrifying. I think I would’ve been killed if I had touched it!”
“The attack was probably at the Star State level. He endured a Star State attack right after breaking through to the legendary rank and lived through it. It’s already something to be proud of!”
The Fate State beasts wore relieved smiles.
They would only act fearlessly if Su Ping were dead.
Ji Yuanfeng and the other humans, however, looked awful. They didn’t expect such an ending after all their fighting. They were unwilling to give in!
Boom! Boom!
The Lord of the Deep Caves strode toward Su Ping; the earth rumbled under its feet.
However, it suddenly stopped and then gazed at Su Ping after only taking a few steps.
Everybody saw that bits of brilliant golden light were again bursting out of Su Ping’s body. The light emanated from his blood-covered body emerged like mushrooms after the rain.
Su Ping was immediately wreathed in golden light again.
An intimidating vibe, which felt like that of a god, was spread out from him.
Su Ping raised his head and gave an indifferent and expressionless look at the Lord of the Deep Caves. His eyes, filled with divine light, were fixed on the enemy.
The Lord of the Deep Caves seemed shocked.
Su Ping seemed to be much stronger than before he survived the test’s attacks!
Damn it!
It was the result of the Heaven’s Test, which could help with consolidating your cultivation!
The Lord of the Deep Caves came to that frustrating conclusion. However, there was no looking back anymore. In fact, the very thought of flinching had infuriated the ominous creature.
A Star State beast like itself had been frightened by a new Legend and thought of retreating?
“Go to hell!”
The Lord of the Deep Caves punched aggressively. The ancient runes on its wings appeared and darted out, raising an ocean of blood in midair.
The ocean of blood was expanded and covered tens of thousands of meters in the sky. Its stench made a lot of wild beasts have difficulty breathing.
The Lord of the Deep Caves growled as it stood over the bloody ocean, then it stepped out like a devil. A demon-filled domain appeared again and darkened the world.
Su Ping was becoming brighter and brighter above the blood ocean.
Su Ping became colder and increasingly brutal as it faced that hellish ocean of blood; strange light flashed in his eyes.
He stepped out. An explosive boom was heard; the air grew turbulent and the bloody ocean raged!
Lightning bolts grew out from under his feet like a vigorous flower!
He walked on lightning lotuses!
The Lord of the Deep Caves was shocked to see the lightning underneath Su Ping’s feet.
“The law of lightning? This is impossible! It’s a perfected law of lightning!”
It felt like it was going crazy, unable to believe what it was seeing.
Su Ping had just entered the legendary level, yet he had perceived the law of lightning!
The law was even more comprehensive than what Su Ping had shown with his sword technique. It was almost a complete law!
“You spent a thousand years in the Deep Caves… You should have stayed there!”
Divine light and lightning shone from Su Ping. He grasped the intermediate path of lightning as he was going through the test. Thanks to hints made by the system, it was then upgraded to the advanced path of lightning.
The advanced path of lightning was closely related to the laws.
Su Ping had indeed perceived the laws and trajectories of lightning from the test, and he had grasped a much deeper understanding.
After all, he had participated in too many tests from other people and understood a lot of things from those life-and-death experiences. It wasn’t surprising that his understanding of the path of lightning had been upgraded to the advanced level.
“Let me try my newly-created sword technique with your body!”
Su Ping raised his hand. The astral power in his cells surged out like a tide.
Lightning hopped around his wrist, and many more lightning bolts were also slithering in the void. He seemed to be clenching all of them!
“Lightning Prison: Catastrophic Void Sword!”
The dazzling lightning bolts were compressed on the sword in Su Ping’s hand.
The sword was also covered in a thick demonic aura. Once the divine light was gathered, the sword became so brilliant that it launched a purple and black lightning aura that tore apart the world!
“I won’t lose! Die!” The Lord of the Deep Caves roared in shock and fury. Demonic air was spread out of all its acupoints and covered up half the sky, making it look like a blood-curling demon overlord.
“Slash!!”
Su Ping stepped out with glittering eyes and slashed using the gathered sword aura in his hand. Thousands of thunders rumbled at the same time; that was all that anyone could hear.
Then, the sword aura was extended to almost three thousand meters long and cut the Lord of the Deep Caves right at the end!
When the sword aura fell, the bloody ocean under the Lord of the Deep Caves’ feet surged and then split up. The ocean had been split up beyond control when the sword aura approached it, as if it couldn’t handle the pressure!
All the creatures present were too shocked to say anything after witnessing such an attack!
Boom!!!
A deafening explosion burst out. The demons that roared around the Lord of the Deep Caves were torn by the lightning bolts gathered in the sword aura. Their Lord’s highly-raised fist was frozen. The next moment, its body exploded and fell into halves!
Space had collapsed in the place where the massive body was bisected, and the violent lightning of destruction shredded its body, turning it into a storm of blood!
Its blood and skin fell off, leaving the bones to collapse like skyscrapers. They caused a noise as loud as that of a landslide, burying a lot of buildings and wild beasts.
One attack, and only the bones remained!
The Fate State demon kings were so shocked to see that scene that they didn’t know what to say.
The Lord of the Deep Caves had been defeated!
It had been slain by Su Ping with one attack. Even its blood and flesh had also been destroyed!
It had to be noted that Su Ping was just a new legendary warrior!
A new Legend had killed a Star State foe, which was beyond anyone’s imagination!
Ji Yuanfeng and the other humans looked at the scene in disbelief, feeling like they were dreaming. They had already been overwhelmed by despair moments earlier, but then Su Ping gave them new hope, and nothing could destroy this hope ever again!
Once the Lord of the Deep Caves died, the beast tides would soon collapse, as nobody could resist Su Ping’s power!
“Dead, it’s dead…”
“Were we saved…?”
Xue Yunzhen and the other legendary warriors stood in a daze. Some were already shedding hot tears, as it really hadn’t been an easy won victory!
Too many men had been sacrificed in that war!
There were dead bodies all over. All the battle pet warriors who had fought until the end were heroes! Even though many of their names were unknown.
Up in the air.
Su Ping breathed heavily. He had just passed the test and his cultivation hadn’t been thoroughly consolidated yet. The previous attack had almost taken ninety percent of all the power in his body!
However, the result was quite obvious.
Combining the laws of lightning and annihilation, together with the feeling of the Heaven’s Test he had comprehended, the attack was ten times more powerful than his Void Sword!
It died!
The Lord of the Deep Caves was definitely dead!
Su Ping could tell that its body had been ripped apart and its vitality was completely destroyed by the law of lightning. Even the remaining energy had been annihilated. It couldn’t have been more dead!
Humanity had won the battle!
Su Ping couldn’t help but roar to express his delight.
His roar echoed in the sky and on the vast battlefield.
The Fate State beast snapped out of their shock. They trembled and paled as they considered the outcome: the Lord of the Deep Caves had died and the monster Su Ping was still alive.
Even the Lord of the Deep Caves had been killed by him. Who could possibly defeat him?
This human… is already invincible in the world!
