Luo Zheng was skeptical of the prophet's words.
To the current Luo Zheng, the Realm of the Gods was still a distant thought.
As for what the entire Realm of the Gods would face, it was probably even more distant to Luo Zheng.
Thus, regarding the prophet's information, Luo Zheng's heart did not waver at all. Even if the sky collapsed, the True Gods would hold it up. Above the True Gods were the Saints...
However, the prophet's last words still caused Luo Zheng's heart to skip a beat.
Did this fellow know how much energy source he had absorbed?
In the end, the energy source came from the Saints. For an ordinary martial artist to absorb tens of thousands of drops was already a considerable amount.
The energy source that any random martial artist could absorb this year was probably equivalent to the energy source that they could absorb in a year in the past...
As for Luo Zheng, he had absorbed even more energy source. He had absorbed a third of the lake's energy source.
If the prophet knew that he had absorbed so much energy, would he ask him to return it?
Although Luo Zheng was somewhat flustered, he still had a reason to be certain.
The energy source of such a large lake was placed there, and there was even an eight trigram ball that could reverse gravity and allow martial artists to leave. This should be the arrangement of the "Lord" that the prophet spoke of. Since the prophet had made such arrangements, it meant that the prophet did not care if someone entered to absorb the energy source.
The only problem was that Luo Zheng had absorbed too much energy.
If the energy source of this lake was the Saint's entire strength, then Luo Zheng taking a third of it was too much.
The prophet saw a trace of unease on Luo Zheng's face, so he said, "How much energy source you can take away is your own ability. My Lord will not mind."
Luo Zheng stared and asked, "You really won't mind?"
The prophet laughed, "My Lord divides the martial artists in the Forbidden Land of God into two types of people, whether they come from the Realm of the Gods or from the universe."
Luo Zheng asked, "Which two types?"
"Those with hope and those without hope," the prophet replied.
"..."
This classification was too general. Luo Zheng did not know how to respond. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Which type do I belong to? Is there hope? "
The Prophet shook her head. "No."
"Then there is no hope," Luo Zheng said with a wry smile, although he didn't know what the so-called hope was.
Unexpectedly, the Prophet still shook his head, "You don't belong to either of these two categories. Ever since my Master set up the Six Great Trial Sacred Grounds, he arranged six Prophets within them. The six of us are here to help my Master filter out the foreign martial artists who enter the Forbidden Land of God Refinement and distinguish between these two categories of martial artists. However … you belong to the third category."
"What's the third category?" Luo Zheng asked.
"A person who can turn hope into reality." The wrinkles on the Prophet's old face completely opened up, revealing a gratified smile. "Seven people have already been discovered from the Six Great Trial Holy Lands. These seven people can all reach the third type of standard. It's a pity that they have never appeared in my Mountain Crushing Clan. This day has finally come."
Luo Zheng finally understood the meaning of this restriction. The Forbidden Land of God Refinement was created by that Saint. That Saint had created many large and small cultivation places. He had created the Six Great Trial Holy Lands and even created different clans to guard these cultivation Holy Lands. Then, he created six transcendental Prophets to quietly observe all the foreign martial artists who entered these cultivation Holy Lands.
These Prophets were secretly evaluating each martial artist.
A martial artist who could obtain a Purple Trial Talisman in the Forbidden Land of God Refinement was already considered an outstanding person. At the same time, they would also be able to display their strength and talent. Under such a selection, they would be able to obtain someone they were satisfied with!
No wonder …
Luo Zheng was also curious. This Mountain Crushing Clan didn't seem to have any need for the Trial Talismans, so why did they have to collect them?
After all, those things couldn't be eaten and could only be used as currency to exchange for resources with other clans. However, the Mountain Crushing Clan was completely self-sufficient and didn't need any resources at all.
This Trial Talisman was actually a proof of qualification. It was to prevent cats and dogs from squeezing into the Six Great Trial Holy Lands and causing a certain degree of difficulty in the selection process.
"You are the only person in my Mountain Crushing Clan who fits the third category, so I can give this to you." After the Prophet finished speaking, a Black Trial Talisman appeared in his hand. "I believe you know the value of this Trial Talisman." After speaking, the Prophet's face revealed a trace of pride.
This Prophet didn't know how Luo Zheng had entered the Mountain Crushing Clan.
According to a normal example, after a martial artist appeared in a place of birth, they would begin to complete all kinds of missions and fight for all kinds of Trial Talismans.
These Trial Talismans were divided into black, purple, red, green, and white.
However, in the eyes of all the foreign martial artists, a Purple Trial Talisman was a top grade Trial Talisman!
The Black Trial Talisman was practically a legend in the Forbidden Land of God Refinement. They had only heard of it a few times, but no one had ever seen it before!
Later on, everyone simply believed that there was no Black Trial Talisman in the Forbidden Land of God Refinement. Thus, the Purple Trial Talisman became the highest grade Trial Talisman.
However, they didn't know that the Black Trial Talisman actually existed. It was just that the number of people who had obtained it was too few.
Only the third category of martial artists that the Prophet spoke of had the qualifications to obtain the Black Trial Talisman.
Then before Luo Zheng, there were only seven martial artists who had obtained the Black Trial Talisman …
Luo Zheng had only entered the Body Refining Holy Lands because of Liusu. He didn't have a clear understanding of the Black Trial Talisman's classification at all.
The Prophet had stayed here for so many years, and he had also imagined the scene of him handing out the Black Trial Talisman countless times. He originally thought that Luo Zheng would be incomparably shocked and excited when he saw this Black Trial Talisman.
However, Luo Zheng didn't have any expression on his face. He just casually took the Black Trial Talisman.
"This is a Black Trial Talisman." The Prophet emphasized again. Although he didn't use any tone, he still wanted to remind Luo Zheng of the preciousness of this item.
"Is it better than the Purple Trial Talisman?" Luo Zheng asked. He had seen He Zuowei take out the Purple Trial Talisman and give it to the Mountain Collapsing Clan. In Liusu's eyes, this Purple Trial Talisman was ordinary and could be casually taken out. If this Black Trial Talisman was better than the Purple Trial Talisman, then it was a whole level higher.
"Of, of course …" The Mountain Collapsing Clan's Prophet didn't know what to say. Since Luo Zheng asked this question, it meant that he didn't understand the classification of the Black Trial Talisman. Then, just how had this boy obtained the Purple Trial Talisman and entered the Mountain Collapsing Clan?
But this boy would eventually understand the benefits of this thing! The Prophet bitterly thought to himself, trying to make up for the imbalance in his heart.
"As for what Thunder Toad and the others are pursuing, you can help them. That is also a type of experience. But, the life forms of the Forbidden Land of Divine Refinement cannot escape. My master has not given us a path to surpass the Heavenly Dao." The Prophet bitterly smiled and shook his head.
The other Saints had set up the Heavenly Dao. In the end, they had only given a single wooden bridge that allowed the martial artists of the universe to cross and enter the Realm of the Gods.
But, the master of the Forbidden Land of Divine Refinement had never constructed the Heavenly Dao. There were no Empyreans here, and the life forms here would never be able to leave …
What Thunder Toad and the others were pursuing, the other five Holy Lands were also pursuing. But, the Prophets of these six Holy Lands were well aware that what they were pursuing was nothing more than a dream!
From this point of view, the many races of the Forbidden Land of Divine Refinement were inferior to even second-class life forms.
Hearing this, Luo Zheng could somewhat understand the mentality of Thunder Toad and the others.
In the struggle of martial arts, if one didn't have an opponent, then one would lose the meaning of 'struggle'. Then, one wouldn't be able to walk far on the martial dao.
No matter how strong Thunder Toad and the others were, they would only be able to occupy a small corner of the Realm of the Gods. They wouldn't be able to compete with the martial artists of the Realm of the Gods. They would lose the motivation to move forward!
Luo Zheng even speculated that the item that Thunder Toad had asked him to help them retrieve from the flames was a groundless existence. That item was just an impossible task set up by the Saints. It was a mysterious attraction to the races guarding the six Holy Lands, giving them a reason to strive. It was like a banana hanging in front of a donkey that could never be eaten.
Of course, this matter had nothing to do with Luo Zheng.
He had promised Thunder Toad. Naturally, he would help him retrieve the item from the flames.
Taking the black Trial Talisman, Luo Zheng left the Prophet's tent.
The test had already ended. Thunder Toad and Luo Zheng had decided on a date to depart. Thunder Toad didn't ask what the Prophet had said to Luo Zheng …
Even if he did ask, Luo Zheng wouldn't say. Moreover, the Prophet had warned him not to tell the Mountain Collapsing Clan about this matter, let alone Thunder Toad.
That night, Luo Zheng suddenly felt a strange feeling coming from his inner world. When he looked inside, he was slightly startled.
