At that moment, in the heart of the ancient greenish-bronze sword, in the Worship Palace Pavilion, Wang Baole was immersed in his research on the scabbard. After some thought, he asked Little Missy about the changes to the scabbard.
"Don't ask me. No one in the entire universe understands your scabbard. Just treat it as a complete mutation and figure it out yourself," Little Missy quickly refuted.
Wang Baole smiled bitterly and shook his head. He studied it again but to no avail. He could only give up. However, Wang Baole knew very well that he had made a huge profit this time. Therefore, he was in high spirits.
"It's probably because my cultivation isn't high enough. When I'm Yuanying, I might be able to take out the scabbard again. When that time comes, I'll be able to shock the heavens and earth!" After Wang Baole imagined his future martial prowess, he stood up in high spirits and looked at the sixth palace in front of him.
He had the intention to attempt it, but the terror of the fifth palace made him feel that the sixth palace would be even more dangerous. Moreover, there was an 80% to 90% chance that he wouldn't be able to pass it. Even if he persisted for the stipulated time, it would probably be very difficult.
If he hadn't experienced the fourth and fifth palaces, Wang Baole might have given up on attempting the sixth palace on his first try. After all, the chances of success were very slim. It might even be non-existent. However … he had obtained too many benefits from the fourth palace mission. In the fifth palace, other than the scabbard, he had also plundered a lot of precious materials along the way.
Even though most of it had been spent on the refinement of the scabbard, the rewards were substantial. That made Wang Baole feel conflicted. He wanted to continue his mission in the sixth palace and continue to scavenge for more items, but he was worried that it wouldn't be worth it.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Wang Baole coughed. He first fawned over Little Missy affectionately. After flattering Little Missy and making her feel comfortable, Wang Baole took the opportunity to ask.
"Little Missy, is there a way for me to teleport back at any time without completing the mission in the sixth palace?"
"Brat, you're planning to scavenge for treasures, aren't you …" Little Missy said indifferently, as if she had seen through his intentions.
"Fine. Seeing that you've worked hard before, this consort will help you out. However, this consort will only do this once. There won't be a next time," said Little Missy proudly.
Wang Baole blinked. Based on his understanding of Little Missy, he could hear the hidden meaning in her words. He guessed that she only had the ability to teleport once more, which was why she said that.
"Once is enough!" Wang Baole was very excited. He habitually flattered the little sister and made her feel better. Only then did Wang Baole take a deep breath and walk toward the sixth palace.
Just as he was about to enter the sixth palace, Wang Baole suddenly stopped and looked back. He saw Kongdao's figure being teleported out in front of the third palace!
To be teleported there meant that Kongdao had passed the second palace's outer disciple trial. Now, what was in front of him was the third palace's inner disciple trial!
Once he passed, he would be the same as Zhao Yameng's disciple. At this moment, Kongdao also looked up and saw Wang Baole in front of the sixth palace. He smiled, raised his hand to greet him, and then sat down cross-legged to heal his wounds.
Looking at Kongdao and then at Zhao Yameng, who was cultivating in front of the fourth palace, Wang Baole turned his head and looked at the sixth palace in front of him. His eyes shone with a strange light, but soon, he sighed.
"It's impossible to pass. In the history of the Vast Expanse Dao Palace, no one with Core Formation realm cultivation has ever passed the sixth palace. After all, according to the increase in difficulty, Yuanying in the fourth palace, and although the fifth palace is special, it's probably at the Soul Conduit realm. Judging from this, the sixth palace has to be at least at the Spirit Immortal realm, or even at the Planet realm." Wang Baole felt that it was a pity. Although he was now considered a personal disciple, he could be listed on the Dao Plate as long as he passed the trial.
However, he was still very interested in the higher levels of adopted disciples and the Vast Expanse Dao Child.
"Forget it. I'll take it one step at a time. If there's a chance, it's not like I can't give it a try!" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. After pondering for a moment, he stepped into the great hall of the sixth palace.
The moment he stepped in, his surroundings were pitch-black, as if he had entered the void. However, Wang Baole was already used to this. After all, it had been like this in the fourth and fifth palaces. Therefore, he stood in the pitch-black void calmly, waiting for the cold, emotionless voice to announce the mission.
Not long after, the voice came as expected, echoing in the void of the sixth palace.
"The trial for adopted disciples in the sixth palace will begin in a hundred breaths."
"Trial taker, please be prepared. You will be sent to the Never-Ending Clan Alliance civilization … the fifth planet of the Mofou Clan's ninth path. Here, destroy the Tower of Helios. Once the tower is destroyed, you will complete the mission! This trial is extremely difficult. Trial taker, please be careful! "
"Trial taker, if you don't reject the mission within a hundred breaths, you will accept it by default! Take note, this … "The cold, emotionless voice didn't even have the slightest fluctuation in its tone. However, this time, before it finished speaking, it suddenly paused!
Vaguely, Wang Baole seemed to have heard a cough. He didn't seem to have heard it at all. It was as if he was imagining things. The entire sixth palace, and even the entire Worship Palace Pavilion, shuddered without Wang Baole noticing.
It was as if there was a power that came from the depths of the universe that intimidated the entire Worship Palace Pavilion, causing it to tremble. The cold and emotionless voice in the sixth palace paused for a moment, and the words it said immediately changed.
"The trial for adopted disciples in the sixth palace will begin in a hundred breaths."
"Trial taker, please be prepared. You will be sent to the Dao Accumulating Planet. Here, you will gain enlightenment on the Dao Marks. Once you have gained enlightenment on one mark, you will be sent back! The difficulty of this trial is unknown. It is a reward mission. Trial taker, please … "
Wang Baole was a little dumbfounded when he heard the voice of the sixth palace. The difference between the two missions was too great. Wang Baole found it hard to believe. However, just like last time, before the cold voice finished speaking, the seemingly illusory cough echoed again!
This time, Wang Baole's eyes widened. He was sure that he hadn't heard wrong. He immediately looked around and spoke with a serious expression.
"Who is it?"
Wang Baole didn't get an answer to his question. Instead, the figure announcing the mission from the sixth palace appeared again after a dozen breaths of time. This time, the cold feeling was much weaker. Vaguely, there seemed to be a hint of grievance …
"Trial taker, please be prepared. You will be sent to the Insect Mother Planet to marry …"
"Cough!"
"Trial taker, please be prepared. You will be sent to the Celestial Planet to receive the transformation of the Celestial Battle Form …"
"Cough!"
…
As the coughing continued, Wang Baole stood there in fear. He had already made up his mind to give up, as the scene before him was too bizarre. However, the increasingly aggrieved voice and the mission it spoke of made Wang Baole's heart beat faster and faster. He was extremely tempted.
However, no matter how tempted he was, Wang Baole forced himself to suppress his greed. After the voice of the mission announcement was interrupted by the coughing, he hurriedly shouted.
"I give up the mission. I took the wrong path. I give up!"
According to the rules, Wang Baole would be sent out of the sixth palace if he gave up, but now … the grievous voice of the sixth palace directly ignored him. Or more accurately, it didn't dare to ignore him.
Thus, Wang Baole was shocked and at a loss. He didn't even get to call out for Little Missy. After the grievous voice announced more than ten missions, there was finally a mission that the coughing sound didn't reach! "Trial taker, be prepared.
"Honorable trial-taker, please be prepared. You will be transported to the Mi Luo Forest to kill a young Star Fang Beast and obtain its beast core. Please be careful and be cautious. Do not put your precious body at risk, as Star Fang Beasts are born with combat power comparable to Soul Conduit cultivators. Adult Star Fang Beasts are comparable to perfected Planet Realm cultivators, and even Beast Kings can surpass the Planet Realm and reach the Star Realm."
"In view of your noble status, you will be considered to have completed the mission perfectly, regardless of whether you succeed in killing the Star Fang Beasts or not. After entering, you can return at any time!"
The grievance in the voice from the sixth palace could no longer be felt. However, the ingratiating tone in his voice didn't make Wang Baole feel at ease. Instead, it made his hair stand on end, and his heart trembled. He was about to reject the mission when his vision blurred. The teleportation was unstoppable.
With a loud boom, Wang Baole's figure disappeared from the sixth palace …
