Three days after Shen Wang entered, outside the Alchemy Hall, the Sixth Prince looked at the cracked Life Plate, his face slightly somber.
"One is dead, but was it during the trial or after leaving?"
The Sixth Prince frowned: "This damned place has no exit once inside; there is no choice at all."
He glanced at the remaining few people and said, "No need to wait, this should be the only passage out."
After saying that, he chose to enter, Molan did not leave either, seeing him finally leave, she was somewhat mocking: "Pretty scared of dying."
She and the others entered too, and when the last creature disappeared, the seven black holes twisted and rapidly shrank before vanishing.
Not only did the seven entrances disappear, but the original Array Barrier also quickly faded.
Bam!
Suddenly, the Alchemy Hall opened its doors, it looked empty, with no creature appearing.
But after a moment, a faint voice echoed: "So many creatures, enough to find suitable candidates, among which one is exceptionally outstanding, even the Medicine Venerable back in this age and cultivation did not have such skills."
The voice echoed in the hall, seemingly someone murmuring, but no figure was seen.
The light changed, and one scene after another emerged within the hall, including demon beasts and the human race, numerous and densely packed, intertwined.
One scene suddenly enlarged, inside depicting a young man breaking an array.
A day later, in a certain space.
"Damn, I actually broke it!"
Shen Wang clenched his fists, extremely excited.
Just now, the ever-changing Low-Level Spirit Array due to his array breaking was successfully broken by him.
Their pulling lasted for a long time; initially, he couldn't keep up with the spirit array's changes, but with gritted perseverance, he became increasingly familiar with arrays and finally succeeded in making his cracking speed exceed the array's change and repair speed, eventually breaking it bit by bit.
The moment it broke, the ultimate sense of achievement brought forth was something few other matters could provide, making one feel particularly satisfied.
"You've completed all the trials; please proceed to the fifth trial."
What surprised Shen Wang was not being given a chance to leave this time, nor was anything of value shown, instead directly starting the next round of trials.
The light changed; he appeared before a cluster of flames, followed by a Pill Furnace appearing, next to it a scroll and various herbs.
"Please refine the Elixir."
Shen Wang looked with a strange expression: "Is this really picking a successor? Why does it feel like I've been chosen? Or simply, I'm too excellent."
He chuckled to himself; although his alchemy skills couldn't compare to his array and mana level, they were quite good, definitely above the average level.
Picking up the scroll, he glanced at the elixir; it was just the most ordinary elixir, a quick look and it was clear how to refine it.
Utilizing the existing flame, Shen Wang started the furnace to refine.
The essence of various herbs, under the stimulus of the flames, was extracted, then fused according to a specific procedure, a sequence generally speaking must not err, or else the efficacy weakens, or the alchemy fails.
This process was quite time-consuming, far slower than breaking an array of the same level; Shen Wang continued steadily step by step.
Ordinary Treasure Pills posed no difficulty for Shen Wang; starting with Lower Grade Dharma Pills, complexity arose, awaiting the appearance of the Middle Grade Dharma Pill Formula, Shen Wang needed to exert himself fully.
Barely able to refine a Middle Grade Dharma Pill, facing the new Top-grade Dharma Pill, Shen Wang directly shook his head: "I can't refine an elixir of this level, giving up."
"You've passed the fifth trial, rated first class; activating the sixth trial."
After Shen Wang spoke, the trial halted; both the pill furnace and pill formula disappeared, yet the elixir Shen Wang refined remained.
This was the first time Shen Wang obtained something.
His gaze fluctuated, observing the disappearing text: "Is the array from back then responding to me, or is it a wise being controlling all?"
A fleeting thought crossed his mind, Shen Wang believed it was akin to a computer program from his previous life responding; otherwise, managing thousands upon thousands of people and demons during trials, how to split focus to control so many programs?
At least, he couldn't do it; even splitting focus multiple ways was challenging, splitting focus tens of thousands of ways, even Divinity Transformation Cultivators couldn't manage; definitely had to be something akin to a computer program's existence from the past life.
That being said, the spirit of the spirit array perhaps is such a new program, or intelligence, possessing calculations akin to a computer; changes in the Defense Array similar to a firewall.
In an instant, Shen Wang felt enlightenment dawned, noticing some things indeed followed different paths leading to the same destination; a computer from a past life and the spirit array this life are likely similar, but the latter obviously more advanced, a notably impressive aspect of this Cultivation World.
As his thoughts quickly shifted, after the pill furnace disappeared, a massive white arena emerged.
On the other side of the arena, a demon beast with blood on its body, carrying evil qi, scrutinized the arena; upon seeing him, its fierce light revealed.
Shen Wang frowned; it was a genuine beast, having both avian and beast features.
Because its head resembled a lion, its mouth an eagle's, with mane on its head, possessing wings though feathered, front claws eagle claws, scaled, looking exceptionally sharp, and the back legs beast legs, height about one Zhang, overall like a combination of eagle and lion, absorbing the most vicious traits of both.
The opponent's aura was strong; it was a Demon King, a truly ferocious Demon King.
"The sixth trial begins, please kill your opponent."
