Chapter 3537: RegionEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The main doors of the central temple of the God Court slowly opened.
Elder Ulysses of the Faith God Court walked out from the temple gates, surrounded by more than a dozen members of the God Clan. He swept his gaze across the open ground outside the great hall and lightly nodded, saying, "Begin."
"Yes."
Two God Clan members holding scepters stepped out from behind Elder Ulysses, walked to the center of the square, and raised their scepters at the same time.
"Buzz..."
At the point where the scepters crossed, holy light radiated, and a spatial teleportation passage appeared.
Outstanding members of the younger generation of the God Clan emerged one after another from the teleportation passage.
More than three hundred people were teleported before the light of the passage gradually dimmed.
Elder Ulysses swept his gaze across the young members of the God Clan in the square, his slightly hoarse voice echoing throughout the God Court.
"Children, welcome to the Faith God Court to participate in this trial. For the next three days, the God Court will be open. All kinds of sacred canons and secret collections within the God Court will be open for your reading, and the power of faith may be condensed by you at will."
"The supreme god’s blood flows within your bodies. This bloodline grants you glory and entrusts you with the responsibility of protection and the duty of inheritance. May the sacred flame burn eternally in your hearts, and may the radiance shine forever!"
"Sacred radiance forever!"
On the square, the God Clan members bowed in unison.
Fang Heng hid on the third floor of a side hall. Hearing the elder’s words, his heart stirred.
Good grief, what a coincidence. It sounded like he had run into a trial for the younger generation of the God Clan.
No wonder the God Clan members in the square all looked rather youthful.
After speaking, Elder Ulysses nodded to the two guards beside him and turned his back as he returned to the temple.
Soon, the younger generation of the God Clan in the square began to gradually disperse throughout the temple.
This was bad!
From afar, Fang Heng saw several God Clan members heading toward the side hall, and his heart jumped.
He was about to be discovered.
With so many God Clan members gathered here, once discovered, it would be very troublesome.
Should he retreat first?
The Martial Apex Tournament token appeared in Fang Heng’s hand as he fell into thought.
...
God Clan trials came in many forms. This time, the Faith God Court trial was an internal recruitment of new blood.
Among the younger generation, many were willing to join the Faith God Court, but very few could truly pass the final assessment.
Even if one failed the final assessment, entering the Faith God Court was still beneficial.
Several young God Clan members entered the side hall where Fang Heng was hiding and began consulting various ancient texts.
The God Clan bloodline was terrifying. From birth, they possessed physiques far surpassing ordinary races, additional dimensional attribute bonuses, and an extremely frightening perception of domain power.
Almost all of them were natural-born warriors.
However, this also caused promotion within the God Clan to be extremely difficult.
Relying solely on bloodline talent was far from enough to stand out among peers of the same race.
Thus, many God Clan members chose to venture out into the lower realms to undergo trials, seek new forms of power, and then combine them with the terrifying bloodline power of the God Clan to rise above ordinary clansmen.
Among the texts in the side hall were many records of special ability acquisition methods.
Uther wandered around the first floor of the side hall for a while. Finding no power that interested him, he headed toward the upper floors.
Hm?
Suddenly, Uther felt something stir in his heart. He raised his head and looked at a young clansman walking down from upstairs, quickly brushing past him.
Strange.
When had he gone up?
He didn’t seem familiar.
When Uther turned back again, that person had already blended into the crowd of God Clan members.
Maybe he just hadn’t noticed?
Uther did not think further and continued heading upstairs.
At this time, Fang Heng had already used a holy-weapon ring to change his appearance, transforming into the likeness of a God Clan youth. He calmly left through the main entrance of the side hall, easily deceiving the God Clan guards.
A blessing in disguise.
If he hadn’t encountered this batch of trial participants, his appearance here alone would definitely have aroused suspicion.
Now, he could instead openly investigate the God Court.
Fang Heng maintained composure as he walked forward.
Next, he needed to find a way to obtain the method for advancing to the Twelve Sages.
Fang Heng looked around and set his sights on the central main hall.
That was where the holy power fluctuations were the most intense.
He saw several God Clan youths directly enter the temple, and the guards outside did not stop them.
It seemed the temple was also among the areas open to the public.
Fang Heng nodded inwardly.
Originally, with several God Clan guards watching the outside of the main hall, he had been thinking about how to sneak in. He hadn’t expected the opportunity to come so quickly.
Fang Heng turned and walked toward the main hall.
Thanks to the aura disguise of the God’s Eye and the mimicry effect of the holy weapon, the guards outside the main hall did not detect any abnormality in Fang Heng at all. They continued to maintain their vigilant stance, gazes fixed ahead.
Fang Heng stepped into the main hall.
Sacred radiance illuminated every corner of the temple.
Fang Heng’s pupils shrank.
Good grief.
This was truly extravagant!
The sacred radiance was filled with terrifyingly dense power of faith!
Looking around, many young God Clan members had already entered the temple ahead of him. They stood scattered in the center of the hall, bathing in holy power and converting the power of faith into holy power.
Fang Heng walked into the crowd and sensed the power of faith falling upon his body.
Since the God Clan was being so generous, he wouldn’t stand on ceremony.
He might as well farm a wave.
The power of faith was absorbed through his pores, circulated through his body, and then absorbed into his sea of consciousness.
Fang Heng couldn’t help but marvel.
The power of faith provided by the God Clan was extremely purified. Absorbing and converting it required no effort at all.
Unfortunately, his Great Sage bloodline was already close to being maxed out.
Fang Heng did not want to draw too much attention, so he maintained a relatively slow absorption rate.
Even so, in just half an hour, his Saint bloodline had already been filled.
Fang Heng opened his eyes and observed the surroundings.
Hm?
Fang Heng sharply noticed several gazes covertly observing him.
They were all young trial participants.
They had probably sensed that his absorption rate of the power of faith was slightly faster.
It wasn’t a big problem.
Fang Heng pretended not to notice and continued observing his surroundings.
Now that even his Great Sage bloodline was maxed out, how exactly was he supposed to complete the advancement to the Twelve Sages?
Suddenly, Fang Heng’s heart jolted. His eyes instantly focused on the stone tablet standing at the center of the temple hall, as tall as a person.
The stone tablet!
That’s right!
There had been a similar stone tablet in the Netherworld temple!
Several thoughts instantly flashed through Fang Heng’s mind.
Perhaps, just as the Netherworld, this temple was not purely man-made but was constructed by holy-attribute power!
The God Clan was likely not the creator of the divine realm, but its occupier.
Following this line of reasoning, the stone tablet at the center of the temple might also be capable of being bound.
"So that’s how it is..."
Fang Heng felt a sudden realization and murmured.
He remembered that Hell Studies had been triggered after he bound a high-tier hell altar in hell.
His demon bloodline had then been converted into Hell Studies.
Therefore, binding the stone tablet was very likely the method for advancing to the Twelve Sages, or perhaps something even more radical—after binding the stone tablet, it might directly convert the Great Sage bloodline into the corresponding level of sacred study.
So how was he supposed to make contact with the stone tablet and bind it?
Fang Heng’s gaze swept once more toward the several God Clan guards standing beside the stone tablet.
