Before long, Peter Parker had vanquished all one hundred of the dummies. The reward for the third stage of the Great Luo Trial was nearly what he had anticipated—astonishingly, it was a thousand immortal stones.
Once the third stage concluded, there would be an hour's wait before the fourth stage commenced. Time flew by, and two hours later, the crystal golem for the fourth stage of the Great Luo Trial materialized before Peter Parker.
This time, he was up against a hundred crystal golems, each with the strength of a First Grade Heavenly Immortal. These golems were more than twice as powerful as their half-step Heaven Immortal predecessors. If they were to attack in unison, even an average second-grade Heaven Immortal would be forced to retreat in trepidation.
Peter Parker's gaze hardened as he surveyed the crystal golems. Without a moment's hesitation, he unleashed the Immortal Killing Sword Art and charged at the First Grade Heavenly Immortal crystal golems.
"Immortal Killing Sword Art, Immortal Execution!"
"Immortal Killing Sword Art, Immortal Killing!"
"Immortal Killing Sword Technique, Immortal Slaughter!"
A single flurry of the Immortal Killing Sword Art was enough to annihilate half of the crystal puppets arrayed before him. In less time than it takes an incense stick to burn, the crystal puppets of the fourth stage of the Great Luo Trials had fallen to Peter Parker.
With his current level as an eighth-grade True Immortal, Peter Parker could, if he exerted his full power, even contend with a fourth-grade Heaven Immortal. A mere hundred first-grade Heavenly Immortal crystal golems merely required him to expend a bit more effort.
"Trial challenger, congratulations on passing the fourth stage of the Allheaven Trial and receiving your reward: the Great Luo Immortal Weapon, the Skyfrost Immortal Sword!"
After Peter Parker had dispatched the hundred First Grade Heavenly Immortal Crystal Puppets, the familiar, impassive voice echoed once again in his ears, reverberating across the silent, icy plains.
Shortly thereafter, an ice immortal sword bathed in a pale blue light emerged from the void, aiming straight for Peter Parker's face. His eyes lit up at the sight of the Skyfrost Immortal Sword, which radiated an extraordinary immortal aura. It was an unexpected delight for him to receive a Great Luo Immortal Sword as a reward for completing the fourth stage of the Great Luo Trial.
Peter Parker knew that his Human Emperor Sword, while a top-tier weapon in the lower realms, fell short of the standards of the Immortal World. With his eighth-grade True Immortal cultivation, the Human Emperor Sword was struggling to match his progress. Now, with the Skyfrost Immortal Sword in hand, a Zenith Heaven Immortal Weapon, he could significantly enhance his combat abilities.
Wielding the Skyfrost Immortal Sword, he felt confident in his ability to defeat a typical Fourth Grade Heaven Immortal. "The fourth stage of the Great Luo Trial has yielded a Great Luo Immortal Weapon. It seems the next stage will be the culmination of the trial," he mused, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
A Great Luo Immortal Weapon was a rarity, even for a Great Luo Immortal Venerable. Given that the fourth stage's reward was already so prestigious, the prize for the fifth stage promised to be even more valuable. Within the Great Luo Secret Realm, only the fabled Great Luo inheritance could surpass the worth of a Great Luo Immortal Weapon.
If the fifth stage was indeed the final challenge of the Great Luo Trials, he would likely face a hundred crystal puppets at the Second Stage Heavenly Immortal Realm. With his combat prowess now on par with a Rank Four Heavenly Immortal, and armed with the Skyfrost Immortal Sword, he felt more than equipped to handle the upcoming battle. With these thoughts, Peter Parker settled into meditation to wait.
Simultaneously, as Peter Parker awaited the start of the fifth stage of the Great Luo Trial, Wan Xinghan was already in the throes of the fourth stage within the ice field. He summoned his full strength, wielding the Mysterious Underworld Cold Bead to methodically freeze the crystal puppets. While using the Golden Immortal magic tool, the Mysterious Underworld Cold Bead, was not overly challenging for Wan Xinghan, it still drained a considerable amount of his energy.
After destroying half of the crystal puppets, Wan Xinghan, pale-faced, was forced to retreat from the grand array. He began using immortal stones to replenish his depleted energy.
An hour later, Wan Xinghan had restored most of his vitality. With no hesitation, he plunged back into the grand formation, determined to annihilate the remaining half of the first-grade Heavenly Immortal Realm crystal puppets.
The prize was clear: only the first to conquer the Allheaven Trials would claim the coveted Allheaven Legacy left by Immortal Juhan. Despite the slim odds for the prodigies from the Golden Immortal factions of Heavenly Water Immortal City and Long River Immortal City to succeed in the Zenith Heaven Trials, Peter Parker stood out as an exceptional contender.
His talent rivaled Wan Xinghan's, and without giving his all, the Great Luo inheritance was at risk of falling into his rival's hands. Driven by this threat, Wan Xinghan fervently manipulated the Mysterious Underworld Pearl, eager to clear the fourth stage of the Great Luo Trials with haste.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The sound of battle echoed as Wan Xinghan relentlessly dispatched the first-grade Heavenly Immortal Crystal Puppets before him. In short order, of the hundred crystal golems, fewer than ten stood.
However, just as Wan Xinghan was on the cusp of defeating the final puppets and advancing past the fourth stage, an unexpected spatial disturbance rippled across the icy expanse. Caught off guard, he found himself abruptly ejected from the trial.
In the next instant, Wan Xinghan stood, bewildered, outside the main hall of the Origin Immortal Palace. "What... what's happening? Why have I been expelled from the Origin Immortal Trials?" His frustration boiled over into fury.
At that moment, He Chenyi, Ning Gaoyang, and the rest who had embarked on the Allheaven Trials materialized one by one. Wan Xinghan's expression darkened. It was clear now—all participants of the Great Luo Trials had been simultaneously expelled. The Allheaven Trials had reached their unexpected conclusion.
Based on his understanding, the Allheaven Trials would remain open indefinitely unless someone managed to pass them. It was inconceivable for the opportunity to simply disappear.
Could it be that the man known as Peter Parker had already conquered the Allheaven Trials and claimed the legacy left by Immortal Juexin?
"No, this can't be!" Wan Xinghan exclaimed, his voice tinged with disbelief. "I am the rightful heir to the Great Luo legacy of Immortal Sovereign Juhan!"
Wan Xinghan appeared to be losing his grip on sanity, his face contorted with a look of sheer unwillingness.
The essence of his cultivated power was intrinsically linked to that of the Supreme Cold Immortal Venerable. It stood to reason that he would be the most likely candidate to succeed in the Great Luo Trials and inherit the Great Luo legacy!
Yet, to his astonishment, Peter Parker had surpassed him, completing the Great Luo Trials before Wan Xinghan could even master the fourth stage and claim its prize.
How could this be? How had the impossible become reality?
