"Wonderful, wonderful! Young man, congratulations on passing the preliminary trial. You are now qualified to enter the Ares Palace! Now, allow me to formally welcome you as an official Trial Taker of the Ares Inheritance! "
The last Headless Horseman died under Chu Rui's Xuan-Yuan Sword, and the mysterious voice appeared again. This time, other than the surprise of completing the previous trial, there was also a hint of shock. It seemed that this guy was also shocked.
A door appeared in front of Rui, not far from where he was!
It was an ancient, simple, and ordinary door! It would not attract any attention no matter where it appeared. However, it appeared in this strange place, which was very strange. Furthermore, there was nothing in the surroundings. There was not even a single strand of hair in the entire place. There was only this door.
Chu Rui frowned slightly. He put away the Xuan-Yuan Sword and the Blade of Prohibition and descended from the sky. He did not waste any time and walked forward.
When he opened the door, what was behind the door was not the scene of this world. Instead, it was pitch-black, like the silent universe.
Step, step forward!
Chu Rui stepped into this strange door. Immediately after, a slight sense of weightlessness came over him, just like when he was teleporting. In the blink of an eye, the scene changed. When Chu Rui's vision returned to normal from the darkness and blur, what entered his eyes was an indescribably shocking scene.
The majestic palace was golden and dazzling. Not only did it have the aura of a king, but there was also a murderous aura lingering inside that made him secretly shocked.
This palace was very big. Chu Rui could not describe its size because he was too close to it. His vision could not fully accommodate it. However, he could still make a comparison. The door of this palace was a hundred meters tall. Chu Rui wondered if he had arrived in a country of giants.
"Welcome to the Ares Palace, young man. If you want to obtain the inheritance of the Ares Inheritance, you still have two more stages to pass!"
The deep voice sounded again. However, this time, it was not just the voice. The person appeared as well.
An old man with a white beard appeared in front of Chu Rui. He was dressed in plain clothes. His body was slightly stooped, and his eyes were cloudy. He looked completely like an ordinary old man. However, even if that was the case, Rui would not treat him lightly. Not to mention that he could feel the terrifying power contained in his body, which looked like it could be blown away by a gust of wind. The unconcealable sharpness in his cloudy eyes proved that he was definitely an ordinary person.
"Speak!"
Even though this old man could not be underestimated, he might be the guardian of this palace. Or rather, he did not have any ill intentions. Chu Rui did not care. Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir. What was there to fear?
"The third Stage, Aura, capacity, and Potential!"
The old man narrowed his eyes and coughed twice, like a person who was about to die. However, his words were not as dispirited as his expression. Every word was sonorous and firm.
"How?"
Chu Rui squinted his eyes and could not help but ask.
"You don't have to do anything. Come over here and let me feel your meridians. Then, stand on that altar. It will give you an answer very quickly. "
The old man smiled as he stroked his snow-white beard. Then, he pointed at the circle that looked like a prison drawn on the ground not far away.
Chu Rui remained silent for a while, but he still chose to do as he was told.
"Hmm?"
He placed his hand on Chu Rui's right wrist. A powerful energy instantly pierced through and entered his body. Chu Rui did not resist. He allowed the energy to rampage through his body. The Old man's expression was very calm at first. However, when his energy reached Chu Rui's internal organs and was blocked by the protective energy in Chu Rui's body, his expression suddenly changed.
"Bang …"
A wave of oppressive energy erupted, and Rui and the old man, who looked like a pair of grandfather and grandson, suddenly separated as if they had been electrocuted. To be precise, the Old man was suddenly bounced back. He took a few steps back before he could stabilize his body.
A look of surprise flashed across his face, and the old man looked at Rui meaningfully. Then, he smiled mysteriously, and his eyes returned to their usual cloudy state.
"Please, young man!"
The Old man waved his hand shakily and instructed Chu Rui to go to the altar.
Chu Rui shrugged and walked forward expressionlessly. He knew very well that he had definitely passed the so-called Potential and Capacity test. The moment he was born, it was a test of his aura. Perhaps there was something special about that altar. He was in a strange place and knew nothing about it. Chu Rui would not be completely at ease. Even though the only living creature that appeared, the Old Man, looked so harmless. However, there were too many hypocrites in this world. There was no shortage of assassins who pretended to be old men and children in order to gain sympathy and wait for the opportunity to assassinate.
However, Chu Rui was also skilled and daring. This was also considered a gamble. If he won, he would obtain the inheritance of the War God. If he was cheated, it was no big deal. He believed that the so-called War God's strength was definitely not as strong as the Heavenly Demon's Doppelganger. As long as he had the Six Realms Wheel, the power of time and the power of space, it was enough to make him invincible. Even if there were any traps, he could easily escape. As for fighting head-on, he was not afraid of anyone. Even if it was the Heavenly Demon, didn't it still fight him head-on?
"Whoosh …"
As soon as he stepped into the forum, a rich golden brilliance instantly rose and enveloped his entire body. Chu Rui's expression did not show the slightest hint of panic. Because he felt that this brilliance did not have the slightest lethality to him, and that familiar slight weightlessness came again, allowing him to understand that this was a teleportation altar.
"Young man, this is the second test, a battlefield exercise! Your mission is to conquer the city in front of you within ten hours and kill the City Lord! Here, you only need to use strategy, and your strength will automatically be suppressed to a certain extent. If you forcefully break free and use more strength than the limit, then it's your loss. Also, the 'aura test' of the previous test will also be displayed in this test. Good luck, young man! "
The Old Man's voice sounded in his ears, and the scene changed. When Chu Rui opened his eyes, he was already in another illusory world.
"General, give the order!"
Behind him, a sonorous voice sounded, causing Chu Rui to be stunned. Turning around, he saw a continuous line of soldiers, each of them with their heads held high and their chests puffed out, their auras like rainbows. The drums beat and the flags fluttered in the wind. The hot blood that belonged to the hearts of men suddenly started to boil.
