Follow the path of Dao from infancy Chapter 1837 Chapter 485: Reincarnation Trial

"Look, it's the Star Immortal Emperor and the Immortal Emperor!"

"I never thought these two mighty Immortal Emperors would oversee this. Their legendary titles have echoed in my ears for ages!"

"The trailblazer of the All Heavens Star Vein and the creator of the Eternal Immortal Final Realm. Rumors say the Immortal Emperor stands as one of the toughest to topple among all Immortal Emperors, an eternal and unbreakable existence. Should the True Realm crumble, the Immortal Emperor would endure forever."

"True, we wield the power of the Final Realm, yet they command the Emperor Road, multiplying its impact a thousand times over!"

Endless chatter erupted, buzzing with thrill and astonishment.

Up front, close to the Heaven Tower, the peak Immortal King Realm experts from the Emperor Clan and various mighty clans wore solemn faces.

"Listen up, everyone."

Atop the Heaven Tower, the Star Empress, draped in a dazzling starry robe, uttered slowly, "This True King contest draws strength from the True Realm's Ten Thousand Races foundation. Within it, you'll claim top-tier cultivation aids and expert mentoring!"

"Right now, the Eastern Domain has become a fierce war zone; victory or defeat might summon back the disaster from a hundred thousand years past, shaking the Four Domains and perhaps the entire Primordial True Realm!"

"Your practice here serves not just you, but your kin, your people, and your lands!"

"Plus, it's for chasing that everlasting Supreme Emperor Realm!"

Her tone, icy and commanding, echoed across the vast chasm.

Myriad eyes sparked, and even those seekers indifferent to their clans or the True Realm felt a hidden surge of eagerness before the allure of the Supreme Emperor Realm.

"This Heaven Tower serves as my Emperor's Weapon. Through sheer fortune during a clash a hundred thousand years ago, I seized a shard of the Reincarnation Fragment!"

"By devouring this Reincarnation Fragment, the Heaven Tower gained the Power of Reincarnation, boosting the prowess of this Emperor's Weapon even further!"

"Inside the Heaven Tower, I've placed grueling tests where death looms and life hangs by a thread, but thanks to reincarnation's force, even if you drain your True God Blood, burn through your years, and perish utterly spent, you'll rebirth and revive beyond the tower, losing nothing but earning the recollection of an intense showdown!"

The Star Empress declared in a frosty voice.

Her statement froze countless listeners in awe.

Moments later, they exchanged glances, faces etched with disbelief.

Draining True God Blood, squandering all vitality to die, only to reincarnate and rise again?

Doesn't that allow pushing secret techniques and Immortal Techniques to their limits in battle?

In this hushed, stunned air, the Star Empress went on in a mild tone, "The Heaven Tower boasts three hundred levels. For your lot, conquering a hundred levels signals Immortal King peak and a shot at True King, plus battle strength rivaling the lowliest Quasi-Emperor Realm!"

"I urge these ten chosen True Kings to not merely scrape by a hundred levels, but to shatter beyond, pushing as far as possible!"

The assembled Immortal King Realm Perfections shone with fierce battle intent in their stares.

They'd long learned of the Heaven Tower's trials from their lineages, yet as pinnacle cultivation prodigies, how could such elite talents lack inner arrogance?

"Enough words; let these youths first taste the Heaven Tower's might and undergo a basic evaluation."

The Immortal Emperor next to her intoned steadily now, "In this starting test, pour out everything you've got. The initial hundred levels align ten per realm stage; the deeper your climb matches your own level, the superior your score, unlocking special rewards later—you could even turn into a prime focus for nurturing and get direct lessons from me and the Star."

Amid the quiet chasm, stirrings rippled; without the two Great Emperors watching, it would've exploded into chaos.

Plenty of geniuses, strangers to Immortal Emperors till now, brimmed with elation, their gazes blazing with resolve and self-assurance.

Cultivation's path hinges on talent and supplies alike, with great houses boasting more prodigies thanks to their vast reserves.

"I grasped Universal Force at age three, sustained my soul at six, and attuned to the Dao at nine!"

"Within my clan, I'm the rare genius of ten thousand years, battling from our Immortal City to claim the top spot across the whole Immortal Dynasty!"

"Facing off against the True Realm Ten Thousand Races' elites now—it's thrilling just to imagine..."

Countless eyes burned with warlike zeal; many there had savored no defeat.

"Brother Qingfeng, you'll nail it for sure; at Perfect Immortal King Realm, you'd vie for True King easily!"

In one spot, siblings chatted.

The youth carried a proud air, exuding a unique solitary vibe; he towered distinct amid the throng.

"Sadly, I'm stuck at Fifth Level Immortal King Realm; those big clan whizzes already hit Perfect Immortal King Realm, and bridging five levels in the fray feels tough to overcome."

The youth let out a quiet sigh.

"It's just bad luck with timing, but Brother Qingfeng's skills mean any True King would scramble to pick you as aide." The hairpin-adorned woman smiled softly.

"A once-in-ten-thousand-years genius, yet barely meeting my bar—I've crushed hordes on this path, sigh..."

Regret clouded the youth's features. Five realms' divide proved hard to leapfrog against Immortal King Realm Perfections honed over endless eras, snatching True King glory. Despite his towering ego, he grasped the steep odds.

"Princess, you'll shine without doubt; unleash our Spirit Fox Clan's dominance!"

Elsewhere, voices urged a woman with silver-thread hair.

The woman looked grave but dipped her head; the Spirit Fox Clan placed over five hundred among the True Realm Ten Thousand Races, its mightiest just an Immortal King Realm Perfection.

And she lingered at Seventh Level Immortal King Realm, yet... her cultivation spanned only three thousand years!

This marked a supreme prodigy unseen in the Spirit Fox Clan for a hundred thousand years!

Before other grand clans' elites, she held her own!

After ages of buildup, shouldering her house's honor, the spots nearest the Heaven Tower lay claimed by time-honored clan marvels!

Emperor Clan, Ancient God Clan, Ghost Tribe, War Clan, Chaos Clan...

"Time to match them side by side..."

The woman's eyes firmed, her fist balling tight.

"Hmph, that kid showed up after all, curse him!"

Far off, a shadow figure eyed Li Hao and Shi Miao from hiding.

Yet as his sight grazed Shi Miao, the venom in his glare softened a touch, for she was his junior sister from shared past-life training.

"Master, Junior Sister, you picked that kid... I nearly unlocked the Emperor Road then!"

"This lifetime, linking to the Emperor Road and opening it lets me reign as Great Emperor, Heavenly Dao Power be damned!"

Cold fire lit the Divine Venerable's eyes; he gripped his fists, then steadied himself.

"What catches your eye, Junior Sister?"

On the crowd's fringe, a soft youth's voice rang out.

Before him stood a green-robed woman, her face veiled in dimness, staring afar at two figures murmuring close, breaths nearly mingling in deep closeness.

Her fingers clenched faintly, spotting the woman who'd defended the youth against the Southern Domain Venerable's weight.

Her lips parted slightly; that memory burned clear, and back then, her power paled so much she could only observe from distance, helpless.

"Junior Sister?"

The youth called puzzled once more.

Lin Qingyue pulled her eyes away, shaking her head lightly, "Nothing."

Catching her flat, detached tone, the youth shrugged it off as usual and added, "In this trial, let's show our best; Master's secluded for ages—the world needs to see our supreme lineage's strength!"

Lin Qingyue nodded faintly, eyed the youth briefly, then looked away.

As talks swirled on, the grand Heaven Tower quivered faintly, an olden presence wafting from its core.

"Enter the challenge all at once, no cap on entrants; pick the level suiting your cultivation. A peak Immortal King might count it lucky to last half an hour on the first level."

The Star Empress announced, "Treasure this opening trial—it's your first gauge!"

At her words, faces turned serious, blending eagerness with sharp caution.

"For starters, best to launch from the first level, tuned to your realm."

Shi Miao advised Li Hao, "Eases you in step by step."

"Sure."

Li Hao agreed with a nod.

"Senior Brother, we're off first."

Nearby, two Immortal King Realm Perfections and over twenty others addressed Li Hao.

Apart from the three at inner Perfect Immortal King Realm, the rest hit Ninth Level Immortal King Realm, planning to test from the eighty-ninth level for adjustment, picks made with utmost care.

"Go well."

Li Hao saw them off, then moved to the base first level alongside the other three Perfect Immortal King Realm folks.

There, scant First Level Immortal King Realm challengers gathered, since selects split between Ninth Level Immortal King Realm batches and Ninth Level Immortal King Realm or at minimum Fifth Level Immortal King Realm, primed to reach Immortal King Realm Perfection and frontline combat roles.

"I'm off that way—stay safe."

Shi Miao told Li Hao.

Li Hao nodded; they split.

"Senior Brother, you tackling the first level too?"

The three Perfect Immortal Kings eyed curiously as Li Hao trailed them to the first level.

They knew Li Hao's feats, hailed as Primordial True Realm's top Immortal King, besting elite Chaos Clan at Original Immortal Emperor tier, now sealed as King at First Level Immortal King Realm—though entry-level, they figured him elite in his tier, fit for ninth or tenth levels, yet opting for the mildest first.

"Just easing in."

Li Hao replied.

They got it, stayed quiet, stepping into the first level with pounding hearts.

Li Hao trailed in after.

Crossing the tower gate's veil, Li Hao sensed them vanish, like stepping into a sealed realm.

Then, a solemn, profound voice sounded: "Ready to start the trial? Within, reincarnative revival awaits!"

"Begin."

Li Hao stated.
