However, when one looked up at the Starry Heavens, there were countless stars. Even the most resplendent Solar Star would die of old age one day.
In the past, Cui Hao had been very spirited as well. However, in less than ten years, he became unknown. His glorious name faded with the wind.
What did he, Xiao Chen, count for? Even if time passed and he reached the peak of the Great Dao, someone would eventually surpass him after tens of thousands of years.
The river surged, and the waves were merciless. No one could stand at the peak forever. The peak was meant to be surpassed in the first place.
With a panoramic view of the Starry Heavens, the expression in Xiao Chen's eyes became increasingly clear and bright.
I don't care what others think of me ten thousand years from now. In this life, I will do my best to reach the peak and fight for the first rank. Even if I die, I will have no regrets.
The next day, the Vice Palace Master returned from the black forest, reeking of blood.
The cultivators who were either resting with their eyes closed or chatting idly all had grave expressions. Everyone knew that this trial was about to truly begin.
The Heavenly Battle Palace's experiential training had always been cruel. People like the Vice Palace Master would not help you. You had to deal with all the difficulties and dangers yourself.
Unless there was an Astral Beast that could instantly kill a cultivator appeared.
Only in such a cruel fight could one truly bring out one's potential. Only then could one truly achieve the experiential training's purpose.
Otherwise, everyone knew that no matter what, they would not face the threat of death. They would feel that they had a path of retreat and would never be able to bring out their full potential.
"I have already slaughtered all the Rank 3 Astral Beasts. I have also killed some of the peak Rank 2 ferocious Astral Beasts that can instantly kill you.
The rest will depend on yourselves, "the Vice Palace Master said sullenly as he swept his gaze over the group of fifty-odd people.
This was not the first time the previous true inheritors had participated in such an experiential training, so they were mentally prepared. All of them soared into the air and revealed a murderous intent in their eyes. Then, they silently headed for the black forest.
Xiao Chen followed the crowd and carefully entered the black forest, starting his first small-scale experiential training in the Starry Heavens.
The high-grade Astral Beasts in the forest had already been killed. To Xiao Chen, this was not really dangerous. In fact, it was rather ordinary.
However, hunting Astral Beasts also gave Xiao Chen an opportunity to practice the Lightning Tribulation Saber Technique. The brand-new Lightning Tribulation Saber Technique required intense battles to accumulate familiarity.
Three days later, some of the injured disciples were forced to withdraw helplessly. They dragged their bloodstained bodies to the Vice Hall Master to treat their injuries.
With each passing day, a large number of disciples would emerge from the forest.
Most of the people had gained something. A few of them even discovered ores in the forest that were no less valuable than the Flame Crystal Stones, causing them to smile happily.
There were also some people who were barely alive when they walked out, chased by the Astral Beasts into a sorry state.
Six days later, only Xiao Chen and Cui Hao were left in the team of fifty people.
On the other side of the Black Water River, one could see the occasional flickering of lightning in the forest. There was also the drifting yellow moonlight. Clearly, Xiao Chen and Cui Hao still had energy to spare.
However, around dusk, Cui Hao came out with a joyful expression.
When the others asked around, they found out that Cui Hao had obtained two Astral Cores in this experiential training. This was a great harvest, so they all felt envious.
Eight days later, a hundred bolts of berserk electric pythons suddenly shot out from the black forest and soared into the sky. They were a hundred purple electric pythons.
Under the observation of the previous true inheritors, they all transformed at the same time, turning from pythons into flood dragons. They roared ferociously at the boundless starry heavens, giving off a bright light that tore through the sky.
Cui Hao's expression changed. He muttered, "It looks like his Lightning Tribulation Saber Technique improved again."
The instant the electric light vanished, a white figure appeared in the sky above the forest, quickly descending towards the place where everyone was gathered. Soon, Xiao Chen gently floated down, holding the Lunar Shadow Saber as he slowly landed.
When the Vice Palace Master saw the withdrawn killing Qi and calm expression in Xiao Chen's eyes, he vaguely felt that Xiao Chen was somewhat unfathomable.
After the experiential training ended, the two teams met up. The other team had been waiting for a long time already. After everyone was gathered, the King Grade warship started its return journey.
The journey back to Planet Haotian was very smooth. They did not run into any Ghost Race or Corpse Race cultivators. One day later, they arrived safely at Planet Haotian.
Xiao Chen collected the Deep Sea Coumarin Grass and the Spiritual Milk to recover Quintessence. Then, he returned to the Heaven Series training room.
There was less than half a month left in the Heaven Series training room. Xiao Chen did not want to waste any more time.
After resting for a while, Xiao Chen entered deep thought. Then, he started to count his gains on this trip.
With a flip of his hand, two Flame Crystal Rocks appeared in his palm. One had a dim luster, and the other had a moving glow. The Flame Crystal Rocks were of great help to cultivators of the state of fire. However, they were not very useful to Xiao Chen.
However, absorbing these two Flame Crystal Rocks had a high chance of directly comprehending the state of fire, saving him a lot of effort.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chen finally decided not to sell this Flame Crystal Rock. Perhaps he might be able to use it in the future.
This was a treasure that could only be found and not sought. Once he sold it, he would have to spend several times the price to buy it again.
After that, Xiao Chen took out two white Astral Cores. After obtaining an Inferior Grade Astral Core from the Black Rock Crocodile, he continued his experiential training in the black forest.
After killing more than two hundred Rank 2 Astral Beasts, he finally obtained another Astral Core.
The Astral Core contained horrifying energy. Xiao Chen could clearly feel it. If this energy exploded, even his physical body would not be able to endure it.
In the Starry Heavens, Astral Cores had many uses. Not only could they be embedded in all sorts of Spirit Weapons, but they could also be used as the energy source of all sorts of warships.
In fact, if one were to use it directly and cause it to explode, they could even injure their enemies. However, no one would be so wasteful as to use such a precious treasure.
Xiao Chen looked at the Lunar Shadow Saber in his hand. This saber was a Heaven Ranked Spirit Weapon. Most Sovereign Noble Clan scions or powerful demonic geniuses would have weapons of the same grade as Sub-Divine Weapons.
An Junxi's True Dragon Lightning Whip, First Senior Sister's Purple Bow, Yan Shisan's Heavenly Ice Sword, and the inherited Holy Weapons of the Three Holy Masters were all of the same grade.
A good weapon could greatly increase a cultivator's strength. Previously, An Junxi did not have a suitable weapon, which was why he could not defeat the Divine Martial Gate's Feng Wuji.
It was time for the Lunar Shadow Saber to be upgraded. The Demonic Cores embedded in it could no longer keep up. They had to be replaced with high-ranked Astral Cores. The other materials needed to be replaced.
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and said softly, "I have to advance to Martial Sage as soon as possible. No, time is too tight."
The resources and materials needed to upgrade the Lunar Shadow Saber to a Sub-Divine Weapon would definitely be vast. If he did not advance to Martial Sage, he would not be able to find so many resources.
The opportunity to advance to Martial Sage lay in the Breaking Sage Pill. It looked like after obtaining the Heavenly Dew Divine Spring, he had to make a trip to the Ying Clan.
Xiao Chen collected his thoughts and finally took out the Death Throne. This was an absolute treasure that everyone loved and hated at the same time.
A light flashed on Xiao Chen's forehead as he stared at the throne floating in the air. After a while, he finally made up his mind.
Xiao Chen focused his vast Spiritual Sense on the purple Lightning Talisman. With a flash of electric light, he entered a world of death filled with black Qi.
Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense turned into a body. He held the purple Lightning Talisman in his right hand as he looked calmly at the vast, boundless black Death Qi below.
It looked like the world within the Massacre Throne. However, the scarlet sea was now black.
"Hahaha! To think that you actually dared to come in. This is my world. No one can escape."
The black sea churned, and a strand of black Qi came out of it. Then, it formed Wang Can's appearance. He looked at Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense with a sinister gaze.
Wang Can's eyes were filled with boundless arrogance and insufferably arrogance, preparing to swallow up Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense. However, when he saw the purple talisman in Xiao Chen's hand …
This strand of Wang Can's Spiritual Mark was greatly startled. Horror appeared in his eyes as he thought of something. Then, he quickly dove into the sea below.
Lightning was the most berserk and tyrannical energy in the world. Of all the energies, it dealt the greatest damage to evil mental bodies.
Without this copy of the Divine Lightning and the immortal Lightning Talisman, Xiao Chen would not have been so careless to send his Spiritual Sense into the Death Throne.
Xiao Chen remained expressionless as he pointed at Wang Can's Spiritual Mark. The purple talisman flew out and struck it before it dove into the black sea.
Immediately, miserable shrieks rang out in this strange world. All sorts of hateful curses surged towards Xiao Chen like the tide.
Xiao Chen did not care about them. He let the purple Lightning Talisman strike the other party until his body and soul were destroyed, completely disappearing from this world.
After searching for a while and confirming that he could not find Wang Can's Spiritual Mark, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and retrieved the purple Lightning Talisman.
However, Xiao Chen's expression did not relax at all. Wang Can's Spiritual Mark was just an insignificant existence in the Death Throne. The truly powerful one was in the depths of this boundless sea.
That was an existence that made Xiao Chen feel fear. In the past, when he was on the Massacre Throne, he had suffered a lot from that existence's torture and torment.
In a King Grade Corpse Dragon warship on the ancient starry heavens path, Wang Can paled and vomited a large mouthful of black blood. He said somewhat weakly, "Father, that person destroyed my Spiritual Mark in the Death Throne."
The person Wang Can addressed as father was the expert with the golden corpse embroidered on his chest, who had blocked Elder Bai with a wave of his hand.
This person smiled faintly and said unconcernedly, "This is for the best. You have not been able to subdue the Evil King's Mark in the Death Throne. If you hold onto it for a long time, it will be a hidden danger."
Wang Can's expression changed. He asked, "Father, what do you mean?"
Wang Can's father said sullenly, "His immortal will of thunder has a natural counter to this kind of Spiritual Mark. It might be able to completely destroy the Death Mark that the Evil King left.
"At that time, you will obtain the complete Death Throne and become a powerful Corpse King. If you can subdue the Massacre Throne as well, you will definitely be world-shaking."
After Wang Can heard that, he could not help but reveal an excited expression.
