A loud sound came from in front of him.
Chen Heng instinctively looked ahead and saw a massive tiger pouncing towards him.
The Giant Tiger's body was very tall. Just by looking at its body, one could tell that it was more than three meters tall. Its strength was also very strong, and its movements were especially agile.
Normally, this ferocious tiger would not be much of a threat.
After all, with his strength, even if he just stood there and let it bite him, it might not be able to break through his defenses.
It was just that right now, everything had returned to where it was, and his strength was only at the level of an ordinary person.
His body had never been so weak before, while the tiger in front of him was incredibly powerful.
A terrifying pressure came at him, and it was as if he could predict what was going to happen.
Chen Heng stood where he was and turned as he punched out.
A light bang sounded out as his body was knocked to the ground by the tiger, following which blood flowed out.
His body had been bitten to pieces and looked like a pile of minced meat, looking incredibly wretched.
Despite this, he still punched out.
His flesh and blood body quickly turned into white bones before being bitten off and devoured by the tiger. In the end, only a skeleton was left, and it was still trying to advance.
It was calm and steady, and the will to charge forward was not extinguished.
Looking at this scene, Tang Rou felt incredibly shocked, and she did not know how to describe her emotions.
"So there really are people like this in this world …"
Standing there, she watched Chen Heng's trial by fire, and for some reason, she thought to herself.
At this moment, she could not help but sigh in her heart. She also had an indescribable feeling.
If there was someone who could pass this trial, then this young man would most likely be able to.
As she thought to herself, she could not help but sigh.
The trial ahead of him was still ongoing.
When the last piece of skeleton was devoured, everything in the place disappeared.
Chen Heng returned to his original appearance and stood where he was.
His body still looked the same as before, as if nothing had changed. It was as if everything that had happened just now was an illusion. It was extremely unique.
Even his clothes were not damaged, looking quite mystical.
However, Chen Heng was not surprised at all, and he silently turned and looked in front of him.
In front of him, the ferocious tiger from before had already disappeared, and in its place was a completely new figure.
It was a brand-new ferocious beast. Just its body alone was five to six meters tall. Overall, the pressure it exuded was even stronger than that of the ferocious tiger.
Chen Heng's expression was calm as he silently advanced.
After that, he fought many powerful creatures one after another.
There were murderous maniacs covered in blood, ferocious beasts that were so strong that they could not be defeated, and even powerful creatures from myths and legends.
All sorts of terrifying creatures appeared before Chen Heng.
However, despite this, Chen Heng's expression did not change at all.
No matter what he faced, he would always choose to move forward. He would never retreat.
There was not even the slightest bit of hesitation in his heart.
This was a Dao Heart that had been tempered by experiencing many worlds.
From a certain perspective, after experiencing so many things, Chen Heng had changed greatly.
But on the other hand, there were some things that never changed.
The more accidents he experienced, the more resolute he became on certain things. He would never waver.
That was the case at this moment.
The scenery changed for the ninth time, and everything disappeared.
Ahead, a golden door appeared, representing the entrance to the next stage.
Chen Heng did not hesitate and walked forwards.
After walking out, he saw a massive stone palace.
Chen Heng was currently standing in front of the palace's gates.
Standing here, Chen Heng felt quite surprised and looked around.
It was different to what he had expected.
After going through the previous stage, the next stage did not seem to have arrived.
He did not know what was going on.
"Has it ended? Or … "
Standing there, various thoughts flashed through his mind.
In front of him, a clear sound rang out.
Before Chen Heng's eyes, the stone palace's doors opened, revealing the scene within.
From Chen Heng's perspective, he could clearly see the situation within the stone palace.
There were stone statues there, every single one of them vivid and lifelike. They stood there, as if they were the reenactments of real people from the past.
These statues seemed to be carvings of heroes.
"Heroes from the past?"
Chen Heng thought to himself as he strode in.
From Tang Rou's point of view, Chen Heng's figure had already disappeared.
The spectator mode seemed to have ended.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the scene in front of her disappearing, Tang Rou felt quite surprised, "Why did it end already? Aren't there still a few more stages? "
She could not help but think to herself.
At this moment, a voice sounded out in her ears.
"Passing the stages is not the goal but rather a test of one's performance to determine whether or not the trial-taker has the right to inherit the Hero's Armor."
The gentle voice continued to explain to Tang Rou, "Of course, under normal circumstances, the trial-taker would need to pass all the stages before he could finally reach the Hero's Armor and communicate with it."
"However, there is one exception.
"If the Hero's Armor recognizes the trial-taker's will, then there is no need for the trial."
She opened her mouth and explained in detail.
Generally speaking, the fundamental purpose of this trial was to choose a suitable owner for the past heroic armors.
Under normal circumstances, this sort of selection would require one to go through many stages before one could reach the Hero's Armor and try it out.
However, if the Hero's Armor recognized the trial-taker, then there was no need for this process.
There was no need for this.
"So it's like that."
Standing there, Tang Rou understood, "In other words, he has already been recognized by the Hero's Armor …"
As she thought to herself, she could not help but feel quite startled before thinking back to Chen Heng's performance.
He had calmly walked through mountains of blades and seas of flames, calmly faced mosquitoes, and charged forward without any hesitation no matter how powerful his enemies were.
This sort of person was most likely the most suitable candidate for the Hero's Armor.
This thought flashed through her mind, and she could not help but laugh bitterly. The remaining unwillingness in her heart quickly disappeared, and she was sincerely convinced.
At that moment, a strange sound once again sounded out.
Following this, another scene appeared in front of Tang Rou.
It was the scene from the very beginning of the trial.
However, at that moment, a girl's figure appeared.
The girl did not look very old, only around 15 or 16 years old. She wore a long robe and had exquisite looks.
Beside her was a little white dog.
"This is … the trial has started again?"
Standing there, looking at the scene in front of her, Tang Rou felt quite startled and only came back to her senses after a while.
Now that some time had passed, it was most likely that someone else had come to participate in this trial.
That was why she could see this scene.
She felt quite surprised, but she did not pay it too much mind. She did not think that this girl would be able to pass the trial like Chen Heng had.
After all, Tang Rou felt that ordinary people would not be able to pass this trial and would most likely be thrown out in the first round.
The girl in front of her did not look too old and seemed quite normal. Tang Rou did not believe that she would have a powerful will.
In actuality, this was indeed the case.
Under Tang Rou's attentive gaze, the girl began to attempt to walk the path paved with knives.
Compared to Tang Rou, the girl's performance was much better, and she managed to walk quite a distance.
It was just that in the end, she stopped and was unable to continue forwards.
"This is as far as I can go …"
Looking at this scene, Tang Rou sighed and did not pay too much attention to it.
"Is this as far as I can go?"
In the empty space, Lu Yao powerlessly fell to the ground, her face as pale as a sheet of paper.
Immense pain was coursing through her body, making it difficult for her to bear.
She had reached her limit and could not continue.
In actuality, if it wasn't for the fact that the Gold Mark on her body was continuously affecting her, it would have been impossible for her to reach this point.
"Your Majesty, your will is not strong enough."
Looking at Lu Yao's performance, Ye could not help but sigh and feel a bit disappointed.
However, even though she was disappointed, she knew that it would be too embarrassing to hope that Lu Yao could pass this trial.
If she had been a Gold King, passing this trial would not have been an issue, and it would have been easy.
As a King, which one of them would not have a firm will and would never waver?
Mere pain and danger would not be able to shake the will of such a person.
However, Lu Yao was different.
Even though she had the Gold Mark and was somewhat the reincarnation of a Gold King, she was not the Gold King.
Right now, she was just a little girl who had yet to reach adulthood.
It was unrealistic to expect her to have such a strong will to pass this trial.
Fortunately, she had long since prepared for this.
"It's alright, Your Majesty."
After failing the trial, Ye walked to Lu Yao's side, looked at the somewhat depressed Lu Yao, and said, "I've been making arrangements in this place for some time, and now I've made some progress."
"This trial was set up by the ancient civilization on this planet. Back then, it was very perfect, and even if a General came, they would not be able to destroy it.
"However, after such a long time, the setup here has already been damaged, and there are some loopholes."
She stood there and looked at Lu Yao as she said, "I can make some targeted arrangements to bypass these trials and find a path that leads directly to the Ancient Era's Battle Armor.
"If that's the case, we won't have to continue the trial, and can directly search for the Ancient Era's Battle Armor."
"This …"
Hearing Ye's words, Lu Yao was taken aback. She hesitated, "Isn't that cheating?"
Directly obtaining the Ancient Era's Battle Armor without passing the trial was equivalent to not going through the proper procedures and directly snatching away the prize. It was a clear act of cheating.
Lu Yao was more or less averse to such an act.
However, she knew very well exactly how important this mission was.
After Ye's guidance, she naturally understood how precious the Ancient Era's Battle Armor was.
Perhaps, a mere ordinary Ancient Era's Battle Armor was nothing to a Golden King in the past.
However, to the impoverished Lu Yao, if she missed this chance to obtain the Ancient Era's Battle Armor, it was likely that she would not have another chance.
In reality, that was indeed the case.
Under Tang Rou's attentive gaze, the girl began to attempt to walk the path paved with knives.
Compared to Tang Rou, the girl's performance was much better. She was able to walk quite a distance.
However, in the end, she still stopped. She was unable to continue forward.
"This is as far as I can go …"
Looking at the scene before her, Tang Rou sighed and did not pay any more attention to it.
"Is this as far as I can go?"
In the spacious space, Lu Yao powerlessly fell to the ground. Her face was as pale as paper, as if there was no blood at all.
Intense pain was currently assaulting her body. It was difficult for her to endure.
She had reached her limit and could not continue.
In reality, if it wasn't for the fact that the Golden Mark on her body continued to persist and the Gold King's power more or less affected her, it would have been impossible for her to reach this point.
"Your Majesty, your willpower is still not strong enough."
Looking at Lu Yao's performance, Ye could not help but sigh. She was slightly disappointed.
However, even though she was disappointed, she knew that it was too embarrassing to hope for Lu Yao to pass this trial.
If she was a former Gold King, passing this trial would not be a problem. In fact, it could even be said that it would be easy.
As a Gold King, which one of them did not have firm willpower and would not waver?
Mere pain and danger would not be able to sway such a person's willpower.
However, Lu Yao was different.
Even though she had the Golden Mark and was, to a certain degree, the reincarnation of the former Gold King, she was not the former Gold King.
Right now, she was merely a little girl who had yet to reach adulthood.
It was unrealistic to expect her to have such a strong will to pass this trial.
Fortunately, she had long since prepared for this.
