Divine King of Honour Chapter 1871: Hell Fragmented Space

"Procure the Godhood of the God-level Nether Beast, the Crimson Blood Sky Blue Python."

Upon encountering this directive, Xu Nian questioned the veracity of his own sight.

To capture the Godhood of a God-level Divine Beast?

How could such a feat possibly be achieved?

It was common knowledge that not a single participant in this evaluation had yet attained the God level.

Furthermore, the power inherent in the God level was undeniably far superior to that of even the most accomplished Divine-level experts.

Consequently, for Xu Nian, this task presented a virtually insurmountable challenge.

However, a singular path to completing such an objective existed: cooperation!

From a distance, Li Tianxue directed her gaze toward Xu Nian.

It was evident that she, too, had grasped this crucial insight.

Yet, given her inherent pride, how could she possibly stoop to cooperating with Xu Nian?

In her estimation, Xu Nian was nothing more than an insignificant ant. What did it matter if he had comprehended the Great Dao True Meaning?

The Nether Emperor remained the Nether Emperor, regardless.

Moreover, Tan Long had specifically tasked her with eliminating this very individual.

"Everyone, you are all aware of your respective assignments. The next step is for me to open the spatial gateway for your assessment. Upon entry, you shall commence your tasks. After a period of one month, should you activate the mark upon your forehead, you may exit the assessment space," announced the Shadowless Sword God.

These pronouncements caused the faces of all the assembled experts to turn grave.

It was clear that their assessment tasks were far from simple.

A palpable sense of apprehension filled them regarding this uncharted assessment world.

It was undeniable that this world of assessment harbored extraordinary perils.

"Buzz!"

The Shadowless Sword God executed a complex divine seal, and in the following instant, a swirling portal materialized before the assembled group.

Gazing through the portal, everyone felt an oppressive, frigid aura emanate from within.

It suggested that the realm lying beyond this gateway was profoundly terrifying.

"Could this be the Hell Fragment Space?"

A voice from the crowd suddenly exclaimed, posing the question.

Upon hearing this, astonishment rippled through everyone present.

The Hell Fragment Space?

Could this truly be the ultimate assessment location designated by the Netherworld God Temple?

Was this not excessively perilous?

Even the seasoned Divine-level experts displayed looks of sheer disbelief upon the mention of the Hell Fragment Space.

They had evidently not anticipated that the final assessment venue would be this notorious location.

Xu Nian exhibited a flicker of uncertainty.

Was the Hell Fragment Space indeed such a treacherous place?

However, he had little time for contemplation, as the three individuals from Futu Mountain had already plunged into the portal.

A few Divine-level experts exchanged meaningful glances before following suit.

It was clear that, irrespective of the dangers that lay ahead,

they had persevered to reach this point, leaving no room for retreat.

Thus, one by one, they leaped through the portal.

Witnessing this, Xu Nian offered no hesitation and followed them into the vortex.

The moment the last person entered, the portal sealed itself shut.

"This young man has finally entered the ultimate assessment. I wonder if he will manage to survive," Tang Wu mused with a sigh, observing Xu Nian's disappearance into the portal.

He possessed an intimate understanding of the Hell Space; it was a realm steeped in dread and terror.

There existed nine distinct divisions within the Hell Fragment Space, each presenting a unique level of peril.

He himself had once ventured into the ninth division, the least dangerous among them.

Even so, he had narrowly escaped with his life.

"This young fellow should be alright. He possesses a resilient destiny and harbors numerous hidden strengths. He ought to be capable of turning adversity into fortune," stated the Lei Family Ancestor.

Having been in Xu Nian's company for an extended period, he sensed the profound secrets the young man carried within him.

And these secrets, he suspected, might far surpass the comprehension of even a Divine-level expert like himself.

Tang Wu offered a nod of agreement.

He, too, harbored a similar intuition.

Xu Nian, he felt certain, would not succumb so easily.

"Let us depart. We cannot foresee the outcome of the impending assessment. His fortune now rests solely upon himself," Tang Wu remarked.

With those words, he turned and proceeded back toward his own quarters.

The Lei Family Ancestor, naturally, chose to accompany him.

The gathering in the square likewise began to disperse, gradually fading from view.

Among the departing crowd was a young woman.

She was none other than Qin Xue, whom Xu Nian had previously escorted.

Her gaze fixed upon the spot where Xu Nian had vanished, Qin Xue silently offered a prayer: "Brother Xu Nian, you must return alive."

Undeniably, Xu Nian's recent display had also impressed upon her the widening chasm in their abilities.

At that moment, the Shadowless Sword God allowed a faint smile to grace his lips before transforming into a streak of light and disappearing.

His role in this particular event had reached its conclusion.

The subsequent ultimate assessment held no direct relevance to him.

Nevertheless, he intended to maintain his attention on the proceedings, driven by a curiosity to see if these two young prodigies could succeed.

Xu Nian, in particular, had ignited a profound intrigue within him.

...

Xu Nian materialized upon a desolate expanse.

The surroundings were carpeted with black soil beneath a sky of perpetual gray.

Cracks incessantly marred the ground, shattering it into countless fragments.

A single glance was sufficient to comprehend that this place had endured a catastrophe beyond imagining.

However, what truly caused Xu Nian to knit his brows was the elemental energy permeating this world.

The world's elemental Qi was incredibly concentrated at this moment, possessing a density at least ten times greater than the Netherworld.

Furthermore, certain restrictions seemed absent in this realm.

Xu Nian discerned that the governing rules here still adhered to those from the era of Hell.

However, the laws prevalent in this place felt incomplete.

Specifically concerning the Wind Attribute Law—Xu Nian could clearly perceive missing components, though some aspects remained intact.

This realization suggested that his powers might not function with consistent stability here; their efficacy would likely be location-dependent.

"What kind of cataclysm could reduce the former Hell to such a state?" Xu Nian couldn't help but ponder aloud.

One could easily imagine the immense power that Hell once wielded.

Yet, all that remained now were desolate ruins.

"Roar!"

An imposing beastly cry echoed from afar.

The intensity of the roar sent tremors through Xu Nian's heart.

He was certain that the entity responsible for this formidable sound possessed a might that dwartred the God level.

This indicated the beast was at the very least of Luo God Level, or potentially even God King Level.

A creature of such power would command respect and caution even from the Netherworld Lord himself.

"It appears this trial is fraught with extraordinary danger," Xu Nian mused with a sigh.

His perception of this ultimate assessment had fundamentally shifted.

"Kid, five kilometers to your northeast, there’s something valuable. Go investigate."

As Xu Nian contemplated his next move, Ye Tian's voice suddenly materialized in his mind.

Xu Nian blinked in surprise at the unexpected message.

Something valuable?

If Master Ye Tian deemed it valuable, it had to be truly exceptional.

Without a moment's hesitation, Xu Nian set off towards the northeast.

Upon reaching the coordinates Ye Tian had indicated, he was rendered speechless.

Could this be a Divine Medicine?

But its sheer size was absolutely astounding, wasn't it?

Gazing at the colossal, black mushroom-like Divine Medicine, which towered like an ancient tree before him, Xu Nian's eyes widened in utter astonishment.
