Starting with SSS-rank talent, I contracted the Forbidden Ferocity.

And he was finally able to rest for thirty days.

As it turns out, this statement was only half true.

Shen Ye no longer needs to rush to the battlefield.

No need to close the door anymore.

No longer need to be chased and beaten by the royal descendants of the three races, the seventh-order soul body, and the Tianyuan projection.

But the entire Zhenmo Pass, the capital, the military, and the Beast Taming Guild never truly gave him a moment's rest.

first day.

Zhou Xuan brought in the medical staff and examined Shen Ye for a full three hours.

The result was three pages long.

The summary is just one sentence.

"It's a miracle that the person didn't die."

Qin Wuji sat beside him, nodding as he ate a spirit fruit.

"True point."

Shen Ye glanced at him.

"Are you very free?"

Qin Wuji raised his left arm, which was wrapped in bandages.

"I'm wounded too."

Zhou Xuan said coldly:

"The wounded should eat two fewer Emperor Fruits."

Qin Wuji silently put the third one back into the plate.

the next day.

Lu Chenzhou came over.

His new body is still adjusting, and he walks much slower than before.

But he seems to be in good spirits.

He sat down beside Shen Ye's bed and put down the information about the Throne Trial.

"Watch it in advance."

Shen Ye opened it.

The first page of the document had four characters written on it.

【Throne Mountain. 】

Lu Chenzhou said:

"The Throne Trial is neither an arena nor a secret realm."

"It is a trial ground formed by the fate of the Eastern Xia Kingdom, the cause and effect of the ancient battle monument, and the will of the kings of past dynasties."

"Everyone who truly wants to embark on the path to becoming a king must go to Mount King."

Shen Ye asked:

"Try what?"

Lu Chenzhou said:

"Three passes."

"The first challenge: the battle."

"The second test is to examine your own heart."

"The third challenge: Ask the King."

Shen Ye said:

"Be specific."

Lu Chenzhou shook his head.

"Everyone is different."

"Wangzuoshan will give you the things you should face based on your experiences."

Qin Wuji, listening from the side, felt a chill run down his spine.

"If Shen Ye goes in, won't it be surrounded by doors?"

Lu Chenzhou glanced at him.

"Very likely."

Shen Ye closed the documents.

"Good."

Qin Wuji stared wide-eyed.

"Where is it good?"

Shen Ye said:

"Cooked".

Qin Wuji remained silent for two seconds.

"You win."

Day three.

Xue Li came to see Shen Ye.

She is currently housed within the Demon Suppression Pass, but her identity is quite delicate.

Traitor.

witness.

Blood Gate intelligence provider.

He was also on the Vampire Royal Court's kill list.

She handed Shen Ye a blood-red chip.

"This is a list of internal retainers of the Vampire Royal Court that I have compiled."

"Everything that can be confirmed is in there."

Shen Ye accepted it.

"Aren't you afraid that the vampires will never accept you again?"

Xue Li said calmly:

"I can't go back anymore."

She glanced at Guixu, who was still asleep by Shen Ye's bedside.

"And now I'm even more interested in seeing how the vampire royal court will fall into misfortune."

Shen Ye nodded.

"Great progress."

Xue Li frowned.

"Is that a compliment?"

Shen Ye said:

"Calculate."

Xue Li turned and left.

She paused when she reached the door.

"In the Throne Trial, if you encounter the Blood Gate illusion, do not believe it."

Shen Ye said:

"Did I believe it?"

Xue Li thought about it.

It really doesn't.

Day 4 to Day 10.

Shen Ye resumed training.

It's not high intensity.

It simply allows the five beast tamers to readjust to the Five Pacts Resonance.

Night Feather recovered the fastest.

The wisp of soul-suppressing light within the Black Sun Netherfire has stabilized, exerting a stronger suppression on the contamination of the Soul System and the Sect System.

After Zhu Jiu swallowed the blood of the Nine Nether Kings, the sixth layer of the Nine Netherworld gradually took shape.

The soul is cleansed in the Nine Netherworlds, becoming even more adept.

Longyuan's Fighting King Armor can withstand another strong impact.

After Jie Chen woke up, the Heavenly Punishment Gate Lock recovered much faster.

Guixu slept for seven days.

The first thing I said when I woke up was:

"Hungry."

Shen Ye asked:

"What do you want to eat?"

Guixu thought for a moment.

"Door."

Qin Wuji happened to walk in, and upon hearing this, he turned and left.

"No way."

Jie Chen peeked out from the head of the bed and looked at Gui Xu.

Then it spat out a very small fragment of a door pattern.

Guixu ate it.

"Thanks."

Jie Chen nodded.

The two little animals have officially entered the stage of feeding each other.

Zhou Xuan's eyelids twitched as he watched.

"You'd better not keep these two together."

Shen Ye asked:

Why?

Zhou Xuandao:

"One locks the door, the other eats the door."

"I'm afraid that one day they'll even figure out how to defend the Demon Suppression Pass."

Shen Ye looked at Jie Chen and Gui Xu.

Both small animals simultaneously looked away.

Zhou Xuan's expression changed.

"Have they already studied this?"

Shen Ye remained silent.

Zhou Xuan immediately rushed out to check the gate of the Demon-Suppressing Pass.

Day 11.

People from the capital have arrived.

The white-haired vice president personally delivered a King's Throne Token.

The token is entirely black and gold, with a mountain silhouette engraved on the back.

"The Trial of the Throne will begin in thirty days."

"But the King's Throne Mountain Token will be given to you in advance."

"You can use it to nurture the Night King Seal for these thirty days."

Shen Ye accepted it.

The Night King's Seal appeared automatically and gently collided with the Throne Mountain Token.

hum.

The black gold king's aura circulates.

The Ancestral Blood Seal and the Heavenly Abyss Mark both quieted down a bit.

The white-haired vice president looked at the black door pattern on Shen Ye's chest with a solemn expression.

"The Trial of the Throne may give you the answer."

"But it may also make the Tianyuan Mark more active."

Shen Ye said:

"They're all the same."

The white-haired vice president asked:

"How are they the same?"

Shen Ye said:

"We have to go in eventually."

The white-haired vice president smiled.

"Your personality is indeed suited to Mount Wangzuo."

Day 12 to Day 20.

Dongxia began its post-war reconstruction.

The defense line of Zhenmo Pass was pushed forward thirty miles.

In the center of the Burial King Plain, a "Gate Closure Stele" was erected.

The monument is inscribed with the list of those who died in the total war of all races, as well as records of the three destroyed Blood Gate altars.

Shen Ye did not attend the monument erection ceremony.

It's not that we don't value it.

He was still in the medical hall being held down by Zhou Xuan to recover from his injuries.

Qin Wuji left.

After returning, he said to Shen Ye:

"The monument is quite tall."

"Your name is at the very top."

Shen Ye said:

"List of the dead?"

Qin Wuji almost spat out his water.

"Battle Merit Ranking!"

"Can't you hope for something better for yourself?"

Shen Ye said:

"oh."

Day 21.

Lu Chenzhou can officially leave the Soul Suppressing Array activity for half a day.

The first thing he did was go to the city wall of Zhenmo Pass.

Lu Qingshan stayed with him.

The father and son stood there for a long time.

No one said much.

That evening, Lu Chenzhou came to find Shen Ye.

"After your throne trial, I may have to leave for a while."

Shen Ye asked:

"Where to?"

Lu Chenzhou said:

"Find a way to restore your cultivation level."

"We can't stay at level 5 forever."

Shen Ye nodded.

"Too."

Lu Chenzhou smiled and said:

"Aren't you going to try and persuade them to stay?"

Shen Ye thought for a moment.

Come back soon.

Lu Chenzhou paused for a moment, then his smile deepened.

"it is good."

Day 25.

News came from the myriad races.

Internal strife erupts in the vampire royal court.

The Bone Clan royal court held Bone Wusheng accountable.

The Thunder Demon King's lineage has gone into seclusion again, and it is said that Thunder Prison Eyes has been damaged in its origin.

The three races are unable to launch another large-scale attack in the short term.

At the same time, believers of Tianyuan began to appear in various places among the myriad races.

More than three races.

Some smaller tribes also show signs of contamination.

This shows that Tianyuan did not fall silent because the three altars were destroyed.

It is spreading.

Day 28.

Guixu was finally fully restored.

It was the first time that the complete Boundary Gate Escape was demonstrated.

It can open short-distance boundary gates within a ten-mile radius.

It can also teleport Shen Ye once.

But the cost is not small.

It cannot be used continuously for a short period of time.

Its ability to swallow gates has also been enhanced.

It can gnaw through even a small crack in a door by itself.

Shen Ye set rules for it:

"Don't open the door without my permission."

Guixu nodded.

"What if we close the door?"

Shen Ye said:

"Can."

Guixu was satisfied.

Jie Chen was also satisfied.

Zhou Xuan was not satisfied.

He went to check the gate of the Demon-Suppressing Pass again that day.

The thirtieth day.

The eve of the Throne Trial.

The Demon Suppression Pass was very quiet.

Shen Ye stood on the city wall.

Night Feather landed on her left shoulder.

Jie Chen lay on his right shoulder.

Guixu lay beside Jiechen, half asleep.

Zhu Jiu is in the shadows.

Long Yuan stood behind him.

Qin Wuji, Li Xuance, Chu Jinglan, and Meng Qianqiu were also present.

Qin Wuji asked:

"Are you sure you don't need us to accompany you tomorrow?"

Shen Ye said:

"Only one person can enter the Throne Trial."

Li Xuance said:

"We'll wait outside the mountain."

Chu Jinglan nodded.

"Waiting for you to come out."

Meng Qianqiu smiled and said:

"If you go straight to level six after you come out, we'll be under a lot more pressure."

Shen Ye said:

"Then hurry up."

Qin Wuji rolled his eyes.

"You actually answered."

In the distance, the battle at Zhenmo Pass had ended.

A rare moment of night fell upon the city walls.

Shen Ye looked at the battlefield of the myriad races.

He closed his shop here thirty days ago.

Tomorrow, he is going to Mount Wangzuo.

The system notification slowly appeared.

[The rest period is over.]

The Throne Trial is about to begin.

[Trial Location: Mount Wangzuo in Eastern Xia.]

[Note: This trial will reflect the host's entire battle record, contracts, karma, and any roll call from Tianyuan.]

【Please prepare, host.】

After reading the prompt, Shen Ye looked away.

"Let's go."

Qin Wuji was taken aback.

"Where to?"

Shen Ye said:

"sleep."

Qin Wuji: "..."

Li Xuance chuckled softly.

Day two.

It was just dawn.

The King's Throne Mountain Order lights up.

A beam of black and gold light descended from the direction of the capital, guiding Shen Ye.

Everyone at Zhenmo Pass looked up.

Shen Ye stepped into the pillar of light and glanced back.

Lu Qingshan, Wei Cang, Zhou Xuan, Lu Chenzhou, Xue Li, Qin Wuji and others were all present.

Nobody said much.

Shen Ye simply nodded.

next moment.

The beam of light receded.

He appeared before a towering, dark gold mountain.

At the foot of the mountain stands a stone tablet.

【Throne Mountain. 】

Beneath the stone tablet, a figure stood with his back to him.

The man was dressed in a black and gold royal robe and held a short sword in his hand that was exactly the same as Shen Ye's.

He slowly turned around.

His face was exactly the same as Shen Ye's.

There was no Tianyuan mark on his chest.

There is also no ancestral blood imprint.

The man looked at Shen Ye and calmly spoke:

"The first challenge: the battle."

"I'm here to ask you."

"If there is no system."

"Without the Covenant of Ten Thousand Beasts."

"If there are no five beasts."

"What makes you think you can call yourself king?"
