The Trial Tower's Tenth Floor, the Final Gatekeeper

In no time, the Sword Qi that Chen Changqing of this dynasty had attacked was shattered in a flash of Sword Light.

Before the Spirit Transformation Gatekeeper could react, the Sword Light had already flashed and arrived.

When they looked again, his figure had been cleaved into nothingness by Chen Changqing's sword.

At this juncture, outside the Trial Tower.

Xue Kai and the others all stared intently.

Suddenly, the light on the ninth floor of the Trial Tower dimmed.

Upon seeing this, the black-robed elder from the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect couldn't help but beam with joy.

"It went out so quickly."

"It seems this kid also failed to pass the ninth level of the Trial Tower!"

The old man in black robes sighed inwardly, his heart filled with joy.

Keep in mind, he was eliminated on the ninth floor.

Since Chen Changqing has also failed to pass the ninth level, there is still a possibility that he can obtain the inheritance.

Everyone else who saw this shook their heads and sighed.

"Well!"

"The strength of the Gatekeeper on each level of this Trial Tower cannot be measured by their cultivation level alone."

"So, they also fell on the ninth floor?"

"Gatekeeper of the Spirit Transformation Realm must be incredibly close to Tribulation Transcendence being in strength, right?"

"It seems the best I can achieve in this challenge is the ninth level."

"..."

Just as everyone was sighing in dismay, a sudden change occurred.

However, after the light on the ninth floor of the Trial Tower dimmed, Chen Changqing was not teleported out of the tower.

Immediately afterwards, the light on the tenth floor suddenly shone brightly.

This also means that Chen Changqing has successfully passed the ninth level and entered the final level.

"Ah?"

Everyone was stunned by what they saw, their faces filled with disbelief.

"This?"

How is that possible?

"He actually... passed the ninth level of the Trial Tower so easily?"

"That's Gatekeeper of the Spirit Transformation Realm!"

How could he do that?

"How could it have passed through the ninth floor so quickly?"

"..."

Everyone was stunned, unable to believe what they were seeing.

When they saw the light on the ninth floor dissipate, they all thought Chen Changqing had failed to conquer the tower.

To everyone's surprise, Chen Changqing actually passed the ninth level.

No... it's impossible.

"The strength of the Gatekeeper of the ninth level is comparable to that of someone Tribulation Transcendence."

"He's only at the Spirit Transformation stage, how could he possibly get through so quickly?"

The black-robed elder from the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect shook his head and muttered to himself, his expression filled with unparalleled shock.

Indeed, Chen Changqing's ability to pass the ninth level of the Trial Tower in such a short time had an unprecedented impact on his mind.

After all, he was waiting for Chen Changqing to be defeated, and then he himself might be able to obtain the inheritance.

But right now, Chen Changqing has passed the ninth level of the Trial Tower.

This also definitively declares that he has lost the right to compete for the inheritance!

Just as everyone was in shock, a glint of light flashed in the Humanoid Puppet's eyes.

Unexpectedly, Chen Changqing's expression inside the Trial Tower was quite remarkable.

Even the Spirit Transformation Gatekeeper stationed on the ninth level was defeated so easily.

The Humanoid Puppet quickly returned to normal, then glanced around at the black-robed elder and the others, and spoke in a cold voice:

"You may leave now."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Naturally, he knew what the Humanoid Puppet meant.

They all lost the opportunity to inherit the legacy.

"No!"

The black-robed elder from the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect cried out in shock, unwilling to accept this outcome.

"Hateful!"

"They actually let that kid stay until the end."

Xue Kai felt a surge of resentment, but there was nothing he could do.

Just then, an invisible and powerful force suddenly appeared and enveloped everyone.

Before anyone could react, they were transported out of the Secret Realm by that power.

When they appeared, everyone had already arrived in the outside world.

Not far away, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu and Chen Ye were waiting.

They were eliminated in the Second Trial of weapon forging.

"They're out!"

Upon seeing everyone appear, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu exclaimed excitedly, and then she and Chen Ye quickly looked over.

However, after this search, they did not find Chen Changqing.

"Hmm? Where is Brother Changqing?"

Chen Ye exclaimed in surprise.

Upon seeing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu was startled and couldn't help but mutter to herself:

"Could it be that Changqing obtained the final inheritance?"

Upon hearing Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's words, Chen Ye's heart raced, and his breathing became much more rapid.

"Possibly."

After a slight pause, Chen Ye said with great excitement, his admiration for Chen Changqing growing even stronger.

Meanwhile, everyone who had been teleported out of the Secret Realm was dejected and filled with resentment.

Instead of leaving immediately, they staked out the area, keeping a close watch on the exit of the Secret Realm.

Of those who made it to the Third Trial, only ten of them made it this far.

Now, out of the ten, nine have been eliminated, leaving only Chen Changqing inside the Trial Tower.

If Chen Changqing successfully passes the Trial Tower, he might be able to obtain the inheritance, and he will surely emerge from the Secret Realm with great treasures.

At that time, they will be able to seize the opportunity to act.

At this moment, within the Secret Realm, lies the location of that Trial Tower.

The Humanoid Puppet looked up at the tenth floor of the Trial Tower, which was shimmering with brilliant light, and murmured softly:

Can he get past the tenth floor?

"That Gatekeeper is a Tribulation Transcendence Realm expert."

At this moment, Chen Changqing's figure appeared on the tenth floor of the Trial Tower.

"Oh?"

Once inside, he looked around.

However, this tenth level of space was a chaotic space, and in the void, a huge golden platform floated.

At that moment, a person stood on that platform.

The man was a hunched old man, dressed in an inconspicuous gray cloth robe, with messy white hair and deep wrinkles on his face.

In the old man's hand, however, was a large hammer.

The hammer had a square head and no decorations.

"Boom..."

Just as Chen Changqing was observing, an immense aura suddenly erupted from the old man.

This energy is as heavy as an ancient divine mountain.

"Um?"

With a slight sense of pressure, Chen Changqing's expression suddenly darkened as he felt an immense pressure.

"Gatekeeper of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm?"

He muttered something under his breath, composed himself, and dared not be careless or negligent in the slightest.

After all, the Gatekeeper within this Trial Tower are far stronger than their original level.

The next moment, the old man suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes opened wide, flashing with a sharp light, as if they contained a Daoist essence that forged all things and hammered the Dao Resonance of Heavenly Dao.

"Kid."

"By getting this far, you've already reached the threshold of your master's art of weapon crafting."

"But forging weapons is like cultivating the Tao; it requires Tempering a Thousand Times and tribulations, and even more so, the courage and resilience to face immense forces like Heavenly Tribulations."

After a moment of silence, the old man spoke in a cold, indifferent voice.

"Um?"

Hearing what the old man said, Chen Changqing frowned.

It was immediately apparent that this old man was quite different from the Gatekeeper of the previous nine levels; he seemed to possess his own consciousness and was not as cold as before.
