Awakening from the Devouring Starry Sky

Chapter 758: Testing and Selecting Generals
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed, and all the immortals had learned the introductory volume of the Xingtian Formation one after another, and there were more than three hundred who had fully mastered it.

Then, in the palace square, under the auspices of Emperor Xia, the more than 300 immortals who had the best grasp of the Xingtian Formation began to try to command the Xingtian Formation to launch attacks one by one.

The way to test their strength was also very simple. They were asked to lead the Heavenly Gods to attack one by one, and the number of Chaos Stones that were shattered would be used to judge the strength of the attack. In the end, the nine Heavenly Gods who shattered the most Chaos Stones would naturally be the candidates for the generals.

Chaos Gold Stone is a very precious gold-based refining material, mined from the chaos by the True Gods and Taoist Ancestors. It is extremely hard and can be used to refine Chaos Gold. Generally speaking, a pure yang-grade magic weapon mixed with a little Chaos Gold will be indestructible.

Therefore, Chaos Gold is more often used to refine offensive innate spiritual treasures. For example, Nezha's Qiankun Circle was refined with Chaos Gold. Once refined, it was a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, and now it has grown to the level of a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

Starting with the Celestial Immortal Beichen, one celestial being after another led the God Xingtian to try, continuously bombarding the pieces of chaotic gold and stone. Slowly, more and more broken stones appeared on the square. In a blink of an eye, nearly two hundred celestial beings had tried it, and the celestial beings watching nearby were also discussing it excitedly in groups of three or five.

“There is actually no one who can break more than six Chaos Stones,” the Black Flame Celestial Being shook his head slightly, seeming a little disappointed, because the one who had broken the most Chaos Stones before was the female celestial being Feiyu of the Tiannong clan. It really surprised everyone that an alchemy master leading the God of Heaven could exert such an attack power.

Dicko on the side glanced at the Black Flame Celestial Immortal, and then looked towards the square again, because another celestial being was about to take action, and this time the celestial being was someone Dicko knew. It was the Nine Deaths Immortal who had reincarnated nine times and practiced the Great Way of Life and Death at the Immortal Fate Conference.

After going through the trials of the Immortal Fate Conference and later having some chances, he became an apprentice to the famous teacher, Nine Deaths True Man, and in this life he finally managed to survive the heavenly tribulation and became a celestial immortal.

But she was not as evil as Di Ke and Ji Ning. Even though she became a celestial being, she was not as sharp as Di Ke and Ji Ning. Her strength improved slowly and she only managed to break five pieces of Chaos Gold Stone. But among those celestial beings who tried, her strength was already very good, surpassing many veteran celestial beings.

"After reincarnation nine times, his potential is still weaker after all! Even with my secret guidance and help, it's just like this. He only shattered five pieces of Chaos Gold Stone, and has no chance to lead the God of Heaven. Life and death are unpredictable in the catastrophe. Even if he survives this catastrophe, it will not be easy to become a god or immortal in the future." Dicko shook his head secretly, and glanced at the Black Flame Immortal without leaving a trace: "But this guy has disappeared for a while, and now even I can't see through him. If I had known, I wouldn't help him."

Next, it was the turn of the Black Flame Celestial Immortal. As soon as the Black Flame Celestial Immortal, who led the Heavenly God Xing, attacked, the violent power that exploded instantly moved everyone. Even Emperor Xia was a little surprised, because the Black Flame Celestial Immortal actually shattered eight pieces of Chaos Gold Stone with one strike. This Black Flame Celestial Immortal had not been a Celestial Immortal for long, and it was unexpected that he was so powerful without making any noise!
"It actually broke into eight pieces, it really is hidden deep enough," Di Ke saw this and his eyes narrowed slightly, feeling a little helpless. With such strength, it is certain that he can command the God of Heaven.

More and more immortals tried, and finally it was Ji Ning's turn. When he made a move, he surprised everyone again, because Ji Ning almost broke nine pieces of Chaos Gold Stone. You have to know that the attack power of these Chaos Gold Stone slabs is constantly weakened when they are stacked. The immortals lead the God of Heaven, and normally breaking six pieces of Chaos Gold Stone is the limit. If you want to break more, you need a deeper foundation, such as a high level of understanding of the Tao, or the understanding of special powers such as mind power, to have stronger explosive power.

After Ji Ning, the Fuchen Celestial Immortal barely managed to break seven pieces of Chaos Gold Stone, which also shocked many Celestial Immortals. These people are really amazing! However, Emperor Xia actually arranged some stronger Celestial Immortals to be the last... After that, several more people broke six pieces of Chaos Gold Stone, but none of them were as abnormal as Ji Ning, Black Flame Celestial Immortal and Fuchen Celestial Immortal.

Finally, it was the turn of Di Ke, who was at the end of the list. At the call of Emperor Xia, Di Ke flew forward and, with the help of thousands of celestial beings and hundreds of thousands of scattered immortals, formed a formation to form the God of Heaven. Feeling the surging power of the God of Heaven, Di Ke, who easily controlled the God of Heaven with a move of his mind, made the God of Heaven restrain his aura, just like the real Xing Tian, ​​and then he slapped him with a seemingly casual palm...
Boom... accompanied by a loud noise, debris flew everywhere. When everything returned to calm, the onlookers outside saw the situation in the forbidden formation in the center of the square and were suddenly shocked, because apart from a large number of rocks, there was not a single intact Chaos Gold Stone. The ten stacked Chaos Gold Stones were all smashed into pieces by Dicko's palm.

“This…” Now, even Emperor Xia, Ji Ning who had performed best before, and the Black Flame Celestial who was more familiar with Di Ke, all looked at Di Ke with surprised expressions, and the Black Flame Celestial even narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Haha, good!" Emperor Xia, who had reacted, shouted in delight. After the Xingtian Formation dissipated, Di Ke smiled and looked at the large number of Chaos Gold and Stone fragments scattered on the square and said, "Your Majesty, so many Chaos Gold and Stone are a bit wasted. How about giving them to me?"

"Uh, it's just some Chaos Gold Stone. If you need it, Dicko, I'll give it to you," Emperor Xia was slightly stunned, then waved his hand and said generously.

Emperor Xia casually gave these Chaos Gold Stones to Xingtian God, the leader of the Heavenly Gods, to test their attack power. However, since it was difficult for Xingtian God, whose explosive power was even more violent than that of the Heavenly Gods and True Immortals, to shatter these Chaos Gold Stones, one can imagine the preciousness of such spiritual materials. They could be easily used to refine immortal tools or even pure yang magic weapons.

However, with a capable general like Di Ke coming to help, Emperor Xia couldn't be stingy, no matter it was because of Di Ke or the Dao Sect behind him. This was related to Emperor Xia's ruling position over the entire Great Xia world, so what were some Chaos Gold and Stone?
"Haha, then I won't be polite. Don't worry, I'll take your Chaos Gold Stone and repay you later," said Dicko with a smile, and waved his hand to collect the black Chaos Gold Stone with gold spots scattered all over the square where the ban had been lifted by Emperor Xia.

After the test, the final result was ranked according to the number of Chaos Stones shattered: Di Ke, Ji Ning, Black Flame Celestial Immortal, Fu Chen Celestial Immortal, Feng Shui Celestial Immortal, Fei Yu Fairy, Myriad Beasts Celestial Immortal, Zhang Hong Celestial Immortal and Crazy Celestial Immortal. Except for Di Ke, Ji Ning, Black Flame and Fu Chen, the other five Celestial Immortals were all Celestial Immortal Extreme Masters who commanded the Heavenly God Xing to shatter six Chaos Stones. Each of them was as powerful as the Tonghe Celestial Immortal before breaking through to True Immortal.

From then on, the names of the nine celestial immortal legions were officially determined. They were named after the Taoist names of nine generals including Di Ke, namely Fire Cloud Army, North Sea Army, Black Flame Army, Floating Dust Army, Bird Water Army, Flying Rain Army, Ten Thousand Beasts Army, Zhanghong Army and Crazy Army.

After confirming the candidates for the nine generals, Emperor Xia led them and the five gods and immortals under his command to the elegant and quiet hall in the Tianmang Palace again, and then gave each of Di Ke and the other nine people a palm-sized dark red token with a ferocious pattern on it. It recorded the most important method of the Xingtian Formation. Moreover, after this battle, if they can survive, they can use this token to see the True God Xingtian, and choose a method from the True God Xingtian's library, or choose a pure yang magic weapon or innate spiritual treasure from the warehouse.
