Martial Ascent to Divinity-Chapter 549 - 532: Demon Butcher

In this space, there is nothing, only an invisible Giant running, only swiftly flashing Otherworld scenery, and only an unimaginable Power flowing through the Giant’s body.

This Power is so powerful that Zhou Leng has an illusion.

Inside this Giant’s body, countless suns flow.

This Giant seems to be filled with love for running, always galloping and jumping.

Filled with wild and primal Power, also pure.

Zhou Leng quietly watches the rapidly changing scenery, quietly feeling the indescribable grand Divine Power in the Giant’s body.

For such a level of divine and grand Power, any research and contemplation are futile and even counterproductive.

Instinctive perception is the best choice.

Zhou Leng seems to be sitting in a high-speed train, immersed in the strange torrent of Power, running together with the Giant, running.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Leng slowly opens his eyes.

The Celestial Bone blood mark completes.

A strange Power enters the body, turning his head to look at the left shoulder, the shoulder gently heating, a pattern composed of complex bones appears and then hides beneath the skin.

Rising up, with a faint smile on his face.

The Power within the bones of the body, intense as the sea, is slowly settling.

Once the settling completes, it will slowly release, enhancing the whole body.

As for the unknown world seen before, it’s unclear what it means.

But, the feeling of running together with the Giant felt good.

Being able to gallop on the plains with the Giant Divine Spirit, feeling that purest joy, even without obtaining any miraculous Power, is an indescribable experience.

Zhou Leng looked around, happily walked outside.

The harvest of this trial finally no longer felt like the pain of skinning and breaking bones but instead felt a natural calm.

Totally different from the legend of madness.

Perhaps, before the madness, the original form of the Celestial Bone was a pure, giant Divine Spirit who just loved to run.

Therefore, after his fall, one of his legs still stands tall on the earth.

Walking out of the Celestial Bone, Zhou Leng becomes increasingly calm.

He Pengfei looked at Zhou Leng, puzzled because everyone who walks out of the Celestial Bone has red shining eyes, extremely crazy, even falling into a long period of frenzied killing.

"How... did you absorb it?"

"Very well," Zhou Leng replied.

"What does it feel like?"

"The bones are heating up, cooling down now."

"And then?"

"No other feelings, just... my vision seems to have improved, capturing more details."

Zhou Leng looked at He Pengfei, able to clearly see the minutest details in the pores of his skin.

"Strange, let’s go to your Third Layer Trial."

The two walked side by side.

He Pengfei said, "The adults say, the Power of the Third Celestial Layer is affecting here."

"Passing the First Layer and the Second Layer Trial is not difficult, but passing the Third Layer Trial is very hard."

"The first two layers are basically trials given by Celestial Bone City, the Third Layer is likely led by the Celestial Ladder, no longer the original Celestial Bone Trial."

Zhou Leng said, "Our Third Layer Trial seems to be completing some Intermediate Trial, joining the Mad God Army."

He Pengfei said emotionally, "Mad God Army... this translation is correct. Our trial at most allows us to join the Celestial Bone Army, but you directly move to join the Mad God Army."

"The adults you referred to, are they the high-ups of the Mad God Army?"

"Yes, maybe the middle level. The Third Layer Trial will likely be difficult, be mentally prepared. As far as I know, most who enter the Third Layer Trial die in it. You trial takers are also called ’Doomed Participants.’

"So exaggerated?" Zhou Leng grew alarmed.

He Pengfei said, "This time, hundreds of trial takers entered the Celestial Bone, fewer than twenty completed the First Layer Trial, fewer than five the Second Layer. As for the Third Layer, across dozens of Great Battlefield openings, among tens of thousands of total trial takers, not even once has it been completed."

Zhou Leng asked, "How many in the Ten Realms have completed the Triple Celestial Ladder Trial of the Great Battlefield?"

"The Triple Trial of Celestial Bone has always been completed by someone, but the Triple Celestial Ladder Trial is impossible to complete. Ever since the Great Battlefield’s inception, no one has completed it. Even those trial takers who later ascended to divinity couldn’t complete it." He Pengfei said.

"Is it that difficult?"

"Some trials simply aren’t meant to be completed."

Zhou Leng frowned slightly, the difficulty of this Celestial Tier Trial seems to exceed expectations.

"Don’t be discouraged, even many high geniuses from High-Level Civilizations can’t pass it, very normal."

"What exactly is the Celestial Tier Trial?"

He Pengfei shrugged, "People here don’t know either. But it’s certainly some high-level Power, probably created or influenced by some of the most powerful existences in the universe."

"However, don’t be discouraged, even if you can’t pass the Triple Celestial Ladder, as long as you perform well, you can still be remembered by the Celestial Ladder and obtain a unique Ascension to Divinity qualification."

"What exactly is this Ascension qualification you’ve mentioned before."

He Pengfei said helplessly, "The conversations among those adults are sometimes in Mang Overlord language, sometimes in Divine Text, I can understand Mang Overlord language but not Divine Text."

"The master of the Mad God Army, is it an Intermediate Civilization, or a High-Level Civilization?" Zhou Leng asked.

He Pengfei thought for a moment, "I’m not sure, but definitely stronger than an ordinary Intermediate Civilization, but also weaker than a truly High-Level Civilization, or perhaps just not that powerful an existence within a High-Level Civilization? Not sure. In the Celestial Bone Army, probing into Divine Spirit information is forbidden."

"What a pity..." Zhou Leng thought if he stayed here, he could certainly probe clearly with his Divine Text ability.

The two chatted as they walked, before long arriving before a new azure Teleportation Gate.

"This is the Teleportation Gate exclusively for you."

Zhou Leng walked in.

Inside was an empty hall, with clearly nothing there, yet he could sense immense auras drifting all around.

Previously, in the great deep court of the Demon Spirit World, he had encountered many demigods.

But these auras were more vast and majestic than those of the demigods.

However, these auras were faintly perceptible, not fully revealed.

Zhou Leng recalled the adults mentioned by He Pengfei.

Before long, a voice rang out.

"Congratulations, trial taker of the Celestial Bone Army, on completing the dual trials."

"Your third trial is to conquer the avatar of the Celestial Calamity God, the Celestial Calamity Envoy."

Zhou Leng stood frozen on the spot.

The various legends about the Celestial Calamity God, combined with He Pengfei’s words about no one completing the triple celestial tier trial of the Great Battlefield, along with other information, exploded in his mind.

"You want a Great Innate to subdue a Martial Saint?" Zhou Leng couldn’t help but ask.

"Any issues?" the voice replied.

Zhou Leng asked again, "Then what is the meaning of this trial?"

"When you become the master of the trial instead of the trial taker, you will know."

"Once you succeed in the conquest, you will become a ’God Slayer.’"

"Every God Slayer is an exceptional divine candidate of Tai Sheng Universe, receiving unimaginable honor and blessing."

"As long as you complete it before the Void God, you will earn this title."

"Additionally, in the third trial of the Great Battlefield, you can earn the title ’Wanamatu Slaughter.’"

"The process is simple, just slay ten thousand Great Innates."

"Hmm?" Zhou Leng couldn’t connect "simple," "ten thousand," and "just" together.

The voice continued, "Next, we will give you a second map, where you can choose various places to hunt."

"Out of these ten thousand Great Innates, you must include ten ’Innate Kings,’ those who are supreme in their realms."

Hearing this, Zhou Leng couldn’t help but frown.

The Innate Kings were undoubtedly stronger than the Undying Knights, possibly of the level of Deep Dark Fury, Gloomy Death Tide, Scarlet Tragedy.

Needless to say, Deep Dark Fury possessed the Starry Sky Bloodline.

The Gloomy Death Tide commanded the army of the dead, even the Undying Knights dared not confront it head-on.

The Scarlet Tragedy was the strongest Great Innate of the Giant Dragon Race, equivalent to Red Eyes or Blood of Tyranny at the Great Innate stage, with unfathomable power.

At that level, even if one could defeat them, it would be impossible to kill them.

"Also included, is a true Grandmaster, a newly promoted Grandmaster."

Zhou Leng maintained a blank expression, inwardly uttering a few polite curses.

"Restrain your anger; the consequences of disrespecting the Divine Spirits are beyond imagination."

Zhou Leng coughed lightly, his face deathly calm.

"In the Perfect Garden, there is a newly promoted Grandmaster not yet guided by the Divine Spirits. After slaying the other Great Innate demons, you can try there. However, he possesses powerful bewitching and illusion abilities, even a slight flaw in willpower can be controlled by him."

"As for the other newly promoted Grandmasters, you can find them yourself. If unable to complete within the designated time, the third trial will be a failure."

"Regardless of success or failure, you must return to the Remnant Sky Bone."

"Celestial Bone City and Mad God Army are your best refuges."

"The adults are watching you, hoping you choose the right path, and do not anger the Divine Spirits."

"Oh," Zhou Leng responded indifferently.

"Go, Celestial Bone Warrior, make the worms of the Great Battlefield look up to the corpse mountain of the Celestial Bone Army."

After finishing, a point of light flew into Zhou Leng’s brow.

"As you command," Zhou Leng walked out without expression.

Exiting the Teleportation Gate, Zhou Leng’s face was ashen.

"How is it?"

"Wanamatu Slaughter," Zhou Leng replied.

"Ah? It’s over..." He Pengfei stopped halfway and quickly closed his mouth, but after thinking, he spoke, "Be mentally prepared, failure is normal. You’re going to walk the Grandmaster Battle Path anyway, treat the Wanamatu Slaughter process as part of it, return to Blue Star and directly elevate, a two-for-one."

"And for the second part, subdue the Celestial Calamity Envoy."

"Damn," He Pengfei cursed on the spot.

Zhou Leng suddenly found He Pengfei somewhat agreeable.

"What do you plan to do?" He Pengfei asked.

"Kill slowly."

He Pengfei put his hand on Zhou Leng’s shoulder, saying regretfully, "Don’t think too much, rest for a few days, absorb the power of the Celestial Bone Bloodstain and Dragon God Seal Land, adjust your strength and mindset, then unleash your grievances on the demons and battlefield creatures."

Zhou Leng said, "Where in the Great Battlefield are the most creatures, yet not dangerous? The Peel Forest counts as one."

"Hmm... since you define ’not dangerous’ like that, you deserve to complete Wanamatu Slaughter."

"The Rocky Mountains aren’t dangerous for you, though they’re all Stone-men, they are cumbersome."

"How’s your body’s resistance to poison?"

"Under normal circumstances, it should be fine."

"Then the Poison Swamp suits you too, communal, numerous, and besides poison, they’re nothing."

"There’s more..."
