The Firmament Palace was an overlord of the Firmament and Continent in ancient times. Although it had long been annihilated in the long river of history, the mountain gate of the Palace would still appear in the Firmament Divine Realm once every three years.
Each time it appeared, geniuses from all over the Eastern Continent would come here, hoping to obtain the illusory ancient succession. However, over the years, the number of people who managed to obtain the succession could be counted on one's fingers.
However, even a tiny bit of the Legacy could benefit them for life. In the history of the East Continent, most of those who had obtained the Legacy eventually became one of the top experts of the continent.
No one knew why the Firmament Palace was behaving like this, nor did they know the purpose of the Firmament Palace.
There had been many powerful martial artists who had forcibly torn open space to enter the Firmament Divine Realm in an attempt to occupy the Firmament Palace or investigate its secrets. However, they all ended up dead.
It was even rumored that in the post-archean times, an Imperial Realm expert had fallen here.
Su Mo stopped cultivating and stood up. He was not in a hurry to enter the Firmament Palace.
Soon, Han Qianze, Wu Sheng, and the others returned to the Firmament Palace.
"The Firmament Palace has finally appeared!"
"Haha! Here's our chance! "
Wu Sheng and the other three were extremely excited, their faces full of excitement.
"How much do you know about the Firmament Palace?" Su Mo asked.
Han Qianze thought for a while and said, "According to the records of the Frosty North Sect, the Firmament Palace is divided into nine palaces: Brightgold Palace, Evergreen Palace, Watermoon Palace, Firescorching Palace, Earth Palace, Wind-cloud Palace, Thunderous Palace, Illuminious Palace, and Darknight Palace.
"The Nine Palaces correspond to the nine elements of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, light, and darkness. Each palace has its own inheritance. There are major inheritances and minor inheritances. It all depends on one's talent, strength, and luck to obtain it!"
"Of course, if you're lucky, you can also obtain some special treasures."
"…"
Han Qianze knew more about the Firmament Palace than the rest of them. He told them about the Firmament Palace.
"Talent? Strength? Luck? "
Su Mo nodded slightly. It seemed that obtaining the Legacy required a series of tests.
"Let's go up too!"
Su Mo said to Han Qianze and the other four as he saw many figures flying into the sky from afar.
"Alright! Let's go! "
Immediately, the five of them rose into the sky and flew toward the Firmament Palace.
However, what made Su Mo and the others depressed was that the Firmament Palace looked like it was thousands of meters high in the sky, but they had not reached it even after flying for 10 minutes.
"What's going on?" Zhu Shaojing asked in shock.
The others were extremely puzzled as well. Logically speaking, with their speed, they should be able to arrive in a few breaths of time. However, they had already flown for the time to brew a cup of tea, yet they still hadn't arrived.
Su Mo frowned and said, "Let's continue flying!"
Su Mo did not understand what was going on, but he had no choice but to continue flying.
They kept flying upward. After an hour, they finally got close to the Firmament Palace.
A large number of other geniuses appeared from all directions and flew toward the Firmament Palace excitedly.
As Su Mo approached the Firmament Palace, he suddenly found that the Firmament Palace was wrapped in a water curtain. The water curtain formed a huge sphere and enveloped the entire Firmament Palace.
Seeing that the others had rushed directly into the water curtain, Su Mo did not hesitate and followed Han Qianze and the others.
After entering the water curtain, Su Mo felt a little dizzy as if he was undergoing a spatial transformation.
After a while, the dizziness disappeared and the five of them arrived above a huge square. At this moment, Su Mo felt his body suddenly sink. He could not stay in the air and was falling rapidly.
Su Mo was shocked, but when he saw that the others were falling like him, he immediately understood that there must be some kind of Air-sealing Formation here that prevented people from flying.
Bang!
Then, they all landed on the square. Su Mo looked up and saw that this was a huge White Jade Square with a radius of five kilometers. At the end of the square was a huge ancient stone gate, and behind the stone gate was a flight of stairs leading to the Firmament Palace.
At this moment, many geniuses had already arrived at the White Jade Square. They gathered in groups of twos and threes and were discussing excitedly. The atmosphere was very lively.
Su Mo looked at the huge stone gate and the flight of stairs. From the discussions around him, he suddenly learned that this flight of stairs was called "Sky-climbing Ladder". There were 999 steps on the Sky-climbing Ladder, and only by passing through the stone gate could one step onto the Sky-climbing Ladder. This Sky-climbing Ladder was actually a huge test. Only by climbing all 999 steps could one pass the first test of the Firmament Palace.
Su Mo suddenly realized that to obtain the so-called Legacy, he still had to go through a series of tests.
However, Su Mo's gaze was fixed on the flight of stairs. What kind of test could there be?
Su Mo could not figure it out, so he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He would naturally understand once he stepped onto the Sky-climbing Ladder. However, the ancient stone gate was still closed, so he could not enter it yet.
Then, Su Mo and the others waited quietly for the ancient stone gate to open.
Time passed slowly. One by one, the geniuses from various domains arrived and landed on the White Jade Square. All the geniuses who had arrived stared at the flight of stairs with fiery eyes.
After an hour, there were no less than 6,000 people gathered on the White Jade Square. It was noisy, and many geniuses who had arrived stared at Su Mo with flames of anger in their eyes when they saw him.
These people were the ones who had been robbed by Su Mo. They had nothing on them, and even their weapons had been stolen by Su Mo. One could imagine the grievances they were feeling.
Su Mo ignored these angry stares and began to size up the crowd. There were many experts here, and there were already no less than 60 or 70 people at Lv 8 True Spirit Realm. They must be geniuses from the four super domains.
Su Mo also found many familiar faces from the Hong Domain in the crowd, such as Ao Wushuang, Duanmu Ying, Nie Chong, and Huo Ling, the Prince of Flaming Cloud.
At this moment, three more figures landed on the White Jade Square. Su Mo turned around and saw the ninth princess, her sister, and Chu Yunfeng.
Chu Yunfeng immediately saw Su Mo when they arrived. He stared at Su Mo, and a sharp light flashed across his eyes.
Su Mo ignored Chu Yunfeng's gaze and looked at the ninth princess. She was no longer wearing a veil, and her exquisite face and elegant temperament attracted the attention of many geniuses.
However, what caught Su Mo's attention was not her beauty, but her cultivation. Lv 6 True Spirit Realm!
Su Mo's heart skipped a beat. How did she cultivate?
During the Top-100-talent Competition, she was only at the Peak Lv 3 True Spirit Realm. When they were at the Distant Ancient City, she seemed to have reached the Lv 5 True Spirit Realm. It was incredible that her cultivation had advanced to the Lv 6 True Spirit Realm in such a short time!
