This stage was simply too difficult. If Qin Xuan did not use the power of the mixed essence spirit bead, it would have been difficult for him to defeat the golden-armored figure. After all, he was an Emperor, so he was much stronger than High Rank of Monarch Stage.
"I wonder how many people have passed this test." Chu Feng said in a low voice.
"Not much." Qin Xuan replied. If he did not have the presence of an Emperor, passing this trial would be extremely difficult, even if he was at the peak of the High Rank of Monarch Stage, there was still a possibility.
For example, Cang Tian Fang, Ning Wuxia and the rest, their talents should be similar but they couldn't do it without reaching the High Rank of Monarch Stage.
This old man is unable to repay you for your help. In the future, if you need this old one, I will do my best and will not refuse. Wan Heng cupped his fist and said to the two. His face was full of gratitude as this opportunity was enough to change his fate.
"Alright, if you have any requests in the future, you will definitely speak to Elder Wan." In reality, they might not be able to meet again, but the reason why he said that was because he felt a bit better in his heart. Otherwise, if he got such a huge favor for no reason, he would be very nervous.
"The two of you should be going to the seventy-second floor, right?" Wan Heng asked.
"Yes." Qin Xuan nodded. They spent a lot of time and effort to get here so naturally, they had to go to the highest levels.
"I'm afraid there are already some freakishly talented individuals up there. You need to be more careful." Wan Heng's face turned solemn as he reminded them, then he added, "My talent is not strong enough, so I plan to cultivate on the fifty-fifth floor. I might have to separate from the two of you."
"Understood, take care, Elder Wan." Qin Xuan clasped his fists. After knowing each other for a while, they were destined to meet again.
After that, the three of them stepped into the formation at the same time. The next moment, the area around the formation lit up with a brilliant light as a powerful energy swept through the space.
When they reached the 55th floor, Wan Heng walked down the formation, but Qin Xuan and Chu Feng continued up until the 72nd floor, when the light of the formation completely dissipated and they walked out of the formation.
This space was exceptionally quiet, so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. When the two of them walked out of the formation, they saw seven stone monuments in front of them. At this moment, there were people sitting in front of five stone monuments with their backs facing them.
Another person stood to the side and watched the five cultivators cultivate.
Seeing this, Qin Xuan's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. There were only six people that came here.
Much less than he had expected.
What made Qin Xuan even more confused was that all six of them were at the peak of High Rank of Monarch Stage, without a single Great Emperor.
How had they managed to defeat the golden-armored figure?
At this moment, the figure that was standing turned his gaze towards Qin Xuan and Chu Feng. His handsome face revealed a friendly smile. However, when he realized that there were only two people, his face seemed to be slightly puzzled.
"Only two?" The handsome youth asked Qin Xuan via voice transmission.
"Yes." Qin Xuan nodded slightly and asked casually, "May I know who you are?"
"I am Song Yue, son of Pavilion Master of the Vault of Heavens." Song Yue smiled as he introduced himself. His gaze was smiling while his tone was calm, giving others a comfortable feeling.
"Son of Pavilion Master of the Vault of Heavens!" Qin Xuan and Chu Feng couldn't help but feel a ripple in their hearts. This young man in front of them, is he the son of Pavilion Master of the Hidden Heaven Pavilion?
It was no wonder that he didn't seek enlightenment of the stone stele, but instead stood off to the side, watching. Considering his status, he could cultivate cultivation at any time.
As long as he wanted to learn, he would have all sorts of supernatural martial arts.
"You two passed the three tests by yourselves?" Song Yue asked curiously.
"No, there is another friend. However, he did not come to this level." Qin Xuan answered.
"So that's how it is." Song Yue's eyes immediately revealed a trace of enlightenment. The first two stages were nothing, but the third stage was not so simple. The two Middle Rank of Monarch Stage characters simply could not pass it, there were bound to be two experts accompanying them.
If his guess was not wrong, that expert was a character belonging to the Emperor of Chu, and as such, had yet to reach this level.
The other five experts were also escorted here by experts, allowing them to gain some insights. Those experts left earlier as well. This was the rule of the Vault of Heavens.
Only those with monstrous talent would have the right to gain enlightenment and cultivate here.
"I have not asked for your name. Where did you come from?" Even though he was the 'Hidden Heaven Pavilion' Young Master and his cultivation was higher than Qin Xuan and Chu Feng, but he did not have much airs of arrogance. He had a refined aura around him, which allowed people to see that he was well-versed in poetry and had deep knowledge.
"Qingxuan Continent, Changyang realm, Nine Heavenly Immortal countries." Qin Xuan responded, "My name is Qin Xuan."
"Chu Feng." Chu Feng also responded and communicated via voice transmission, so as to not disturb others' comprehension.
"So it's a friend from the Nine Heavens Immortal Country!" Song Yue's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. This made Qin Xuan curious and he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Song knows of the Nine Heaven Immortal Country?"
Logically speaking, the Vault of Heavens was a force of the Xuan Jun Continent, and this place was very far away from the Nine Heavens Immortal Country. The two should not have come into contact, so how did Song Yue know about the Nine Heaven Immortal Country?
"I'm an untalented individual. I've read about some ancient books about the powers within the Qing Xuan Realm. The Thirteen Realms of Qing Xuan. There are two hegemony powers within the Changyang Realm. The first is the Nine Heavenly Immortals Country, the second is the Glazed Light Holy Land." Song Yue spoke frankly with confidence. He looked at Qin Xuan with a smile and said, "I wonder if there was anything wrong with what I said?"
Hearing Song Yue's words, Qin Xuan looked at him deeply and said, "What Brother Song said is the truth, there is no mistake."
At this moment, Qin Xuan was extremely shocked. Song Yue knew the situation of the Changyang clan like the back of his hand. Then what about the other twelve realms of Qing Xuan?
Was he also clear about the other continents?
If that was the case, it would be too terrifying.
"I heard that in addition to the eight land masses, there is another land mass. Brother Song, I wonder if you've heard of any other land masses?" Qin Xuan looked at Song Yue and asked calmly. He didn't show any surprise on his face, as if he was just casually asking.
"Is the continent Brother Qin talked about the Profound Sky Continent?" Song Yue asked, looking at Qin Xuan with a meaningful look in his eyes.
It seemed like his guess was not wrong. Song Yue was indeed familiar with the situation in the other continents, even though the Profound Sky Continent had been isolated from this world for countless years, he still knew about the Profound Sky Continent.
As such, he was very clear about the other continents.
"Why did Brother Qin suddenly ask about this?" Song Yue asked Qin Xuan. His expression was still as indifferent as before, but it seemed as though he was probing something.
"Nothing much, I just heard someone mention it on the way. I don't know if it's true or not, but since Brother Song is knowledgeable, I've asked for confirmation." Qin Xuan smiled casually. His answer was watertight, no one could see any flaws in it.
