Chapter 849: Chapter 849
Gu Tong, Ling Jian, Jian Wushuang, Feng Yu, Huangfu Ru, and others, descended into the great hall.
The atmosphere in the entire hall halted.
Everything quieted down!
Especially since Gu Tong, Ling Jian, and Jian Wushuang each held a multitude of points, numbering in the millions!
Among them, one person had accumulated a terrifying ten million points. Ten million points, just how many treasures could be exchanged for that? Get full chapters from noᴠelfire.net
Using a hundred thousand points per treasure as an example, holding ten million points means one could completely take away a hundred treasures.
The other two could also take away dozens of items.
But the treasures within the great hall numbered in the tens of thousands, silently suspended in the air, dazzling and overwhelming.
Upon reading the words on the stele, the expressions of Gu Tong, Ling Jian, Jian Wushuang, Feng Yu, Huangfu Ru, and others changed!
"Didn't it say that obtaining ten million points would allow you to inherit the Kunwu Heavenly Venerate's legacy? Why is it just these things in the end?" Gu Tong frowned, somewhat displeased.
"It's a bit strange. If the reward is just these, there's absolutely no need to come to Kunwu Mountain." Ling Jian nodded slightly, frowning.
Jian Wushuang, Feng Yu, Huangfu Ru, and others remained silent.
The palace underwent a massive tremor, and right before everyone's eyes, it suddenly collapsed!
"What happened again?"
"This Kunwu Mountain isn't very stable, why does it keep having earthquakes?"
The other cultivators present couldn't help but complain.
The dome of this great hall vanished, disappearing without a trace, and above everyone's heads appeared a vast starry sky.
An even more shocking scene appeared!
In the starry sky, there were ninety-nine platforms, each one higher than the last, simply suspended in the void.
Each platform held a palace, extremely luxurious, constructed as if they were heavenly palaces floating in the void!
And the treasures that were initially inside the great hall floated quietly around those palaces.
Using the starry sky as a backdrop and the void as steps to establish palaces!
An incredible undertaking!
People below were all stunned.
Xing Yun, Nie Shuang, Yuan Zi, Gao Qing, Matthew, Gongsun Yuan and others, all widened their eyes, ready to pop out.
Gu Tong, Ling Jian, Jian Wushuang, Feng Yu, Huangfu Ru, and others, though experienced, were similarly shocked.
"Isn't the Kunwu Heavenly Venerate amazing? Below us, there are ninety-nine layers of Kunwu Mountain, which are actually like ninety-nine small worlds. Although each small world isn't large, only about ten thousand miles in circumference, having ninety-nine of them together is already incredibly impressive!"
"Now, above the ninety-nine small worlds, there are even ninety-nine palaces! Damn, this kind of grandeur could never be achieved by the people of the Divine Wind Continent!"
The crowd present discussed fervently, their eyes blazing.
In that moment, a figure appeared in the endless starry sky, an extremely ethereal and blurry figure, almost indistinct.
"I am Kunwu Heavenly Venerate! Practicing the Dao for one billion nine hundred seventy-eight million five hundred thousand years, I've pursued the celestial path all my life but sadly failed to achieve my wish!" the phantom spoke.
"What? Kunwu Heavenly Venerate!"
"Gasp! One billion nine hundred million years... Damn, that's nearly eleven hundred million years of life!" The audience was shocked.
A lifespan of a billion years, what kind of concept is that?
It's simply defying the heavens!
"Silence, keep listening!" Gu Tong softly commanded, casting a cold glance at those discussing.
These few quickly shut their mouths.
Kunwu Heavenly Venerate continued: "Before my passing, I established the Kunwu Mountain Secret Realm, solely to find an heir! Before you lie a total of ninety-nine heavenly palaces, each containing a part of my legacy. The first layer of the heavenly palace can receive one percent of my legacy! The second layer, two percent! The third layer…three percent, and so on!"
"If you can reach the ninety-ninth layer of the heavenly palace, you can obtain my entire legacy!"
"Among you, someone has obtained ten million points and can directly start climbing from the tenth layer. Likewise, you can choose to stay on the tenth layer and obtain ten percent of my legacy!"
"Others, with a thousand points, can climb once, up to three chances. If you fail, it means no fate with me! Those who forcibly climb will be reduced to ashes!"
After Kunwu Heavenly Venerate's introduction.
The entire phantom disappeared.
The celestial palaces in the starry sky trembled violently.
At the connecting point to the ground, a string of steps appeared. Someone counted, a total of a hundred steps leading to the First Layer of the heavenly palace, meaning, as long as one climbed all fifty steps, they could enter the First Layer and receive one percent of Kunwu Heavenly Venerate's legacy.
One percent sounds like little!
This was from a terrifying powerful being who lived for a billion years!
Even receiving just one percent of his legacy was enough to benefit for life!
If one climbed all ninety-nine celestial palaces, with a hundred steps between each, one would need to climb ninety-nine hundred and fifty steps to finally obtain Kunwu Heavenly Venerate's legacy!
"Damn it, everyone has three challenge opportunities, I just sold thirty thousand points, lost big time! Damn it!"
A man cursed angrily, looking depressed.
But those with points in hand looked thrilled.
Nie Shuang couldn't wait any longer, he happened to have one thousand points and could give it a try.
Gu Tong, Ling Jian, Jian Wushuang, Feng Yu, Huangfu Ru, and others frowned, choosing not to act. They also wanted to see what exactly would happen!
It certainly couldn't be that Nie Shuang would just directly ascend to the ninety-ninth layer of the heavenly palaces?
Under everyone's watchful gaze, Nie Shuang began climbing.
Nie Shuang shouted, stepping onto the first step, and the Soul Hunting Token in his hand decreased by a thousand points.
In a flash, Nie Shuang felt a sudden shudder throughout his body.
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from Nie Shuang's mouth, and his face instantly turned as pale as snow.
At that moment, Nie Shuang felt as though two mountains had suddenly appeared on his shoulders, almost crushing him!
Yet he could still hold on.
The faces of the people below the steps changed slightly.
Nie Shuang continued onward, taking one step onto the second step.
Nie Shuang's face became extremely unsightly. With every step he ascended, the pressure he endured became more terrifying!
"Damn it... How could this be, it's only the second step? I can't go further?" Nie Shuang growled, veins bulging on his forehead, releasing a burst of terrifying potential from within.
"For the sake of the ancestors, up!"
He ascended ten steps in one breath.
At the moment Nie Shuang stepped onto the tenth step!
"Crack crack crack..."
Everyone heard a thunderous sound within Nie Shuang's body, as if his bones were ground to dust...
