Chapter 29: The Path of Trials—The Fate of the Trialers
Isaac looked up coldly, and the holy light in the sky gradually disappeared, as if it had never appeared. The majestic voice still echoed in his ears: "You, who have been recognized as the trial participant, will face trials from all the heavens. Whether you can climb to the highest position depends entirely on your own destiny."
This statement carried an air of mystery and threat, as if reminding him that the Alliance of the Heavens not only did not acknowledge him, but was instead awaiting an even more brutal challenge. Isaac's designation as a "Trialist" also seemed to imply a form of surveillance—if he made the slightest mistake in the Trials of the Heavens, he would face absolute suppression from the Alliance!
Isaac smiled coldly, ignoring the warning. He had never feared any obstacle, so what did the Alliance of the Heavens matter? His destiny was to traverse the heavens and make him the sole ruler of all realms!
Just as Isaac was savoring the thrilling battle, a system notification sounded in his mind:
[Congratulations on passing the first trial of the Alliance of Gods and obtaining the new storyline: "The Trialer". Reward: Increased Power of Destiny, opening the Gate of Fate.]
Isaac felt a surge of joy upon hearing the reward information. He knew that his ability to break through layers of suppression was due to the gradual awakening of the power of destiny within him, which unleashed his even greater potential. The "Gate of Destiny" mentioned by the system was the key to his ascent to the pinnacle of the heavens.
“System, open the gate of destiny.” Isaac accepted without hesitation. His goal had never changed—only by standing at the highest point could he break free from all the constraints of the rules!
In an instant, the space before him was distorted by a strange force, as if an invisible gate had appeared in front of him. This gate was covered with countless ancient runes, radiating a deep and mysterious light, as if connecting to endless time and space.
The Gate of Destiny has opened. This gate will guide you to more worlds to complete trials. Please note that each trial will become increasingly difficult, ultimately determining whether you can become the true King of the Heavens.
Isaac took a deep breath and stepped fearlessly into the Gate of Destiny. A flash of light, and his figure vanished from the spot.
When Isaac opened his eyes again, he found himself standing in an unfamiliar territory. This world was different from the heavens he had experienced; the air was filled with intense spiritual energy fluctuations, and the sky was a dark red, as if it had been shrouded in a strange power for a long time.
Before him stood a colossal altar, upon which were inscribed three ancient characters, radiating an unparalleled aura of power:
"The Pinnacle of All Realms!"
Isaac felt a slight jolt in his heart. At this moment, he realized that he had entered a completely new battlefield. Perhaps this was the pinnacle of the heavens, the true battlefield of kings!
Just as he was on guard, a cold voice rang out behind him: "You are the intruder who was given the mark of the Trialer?"
Isaac whirled around, a cold glint in his eyes. A man in a long black robe slowly approached, exuding an unfathomable aura, seemingly blending into the surrounding darkness, making it impossible to discern his true appearance.
"Who I am is none of your business," Isaac said coldly, his Blade of Destiny twitching slightly, ready to strike at any moment.
The man in black robes sneered, his eyes filled with undisguised contempt: "A mere trial participant dares to attempt to break into the pinnacle of the heavens? It seems you truly do not know the immensity of heaven and earth."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the man in black robes made a sudden move, his hand striking Isaac's chest with ghostly speed and lightning-fast movements, carrying a strange killing intent!
Undeterred, Isaac held the Blade of Destiny before his chest, meeting the attack head-on. Golden light erupted instantly in his hand, repelling the opponent's dark power.
A look of surprise flashed in the black-robed man's eyes; he had clearly not expected that Isaac would be able to withstand his attack.
"Interesting," the man in black robes murmured, then his figure flashed, instantly appearing behind Isaac with unpredictable speed. A black light surged from his palm, piercing towards Isaac's back like a sharp blade.
Isaac sensed something, and his power of destiny erupted once more, instantly shattering the surrounding darkness. At the same time, his figure transformed into a golden light, rushing straight towards the black-robed man, his blade of destiny slicing through the air as it fiercely struck his opponent!
The man in black robes snorted coldly, crossing his arms to block in front of his chest. He was directly cleaved back by Isaac's Blade of Destiny, staggering back several steps and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"It seems the rumors are true; your power of destiny is indeed formidable," the black-robed man sneered, a hint of apprehension creeping into his eyes. He steadied himself, took a deep breath, and his gaze sharpened further.
Isaac said dismissively, "If you have any tricks up your sleeve, then go ahead and use them. Otherwise, I will wipe you out completely, you ignorant puppet."
A flash of anger crossed the black-robed man's eyes. He gritted his teeth and sneered, "You think you can run rampant here all by yourself? The Trial at the Pinnacle of Heavens is not as simple as you think. If it were so easy to complete, how could it be called a trial?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange rune shot out from a gem in the black-robed man's hand. The rune shimmered with a dark light, creating a chilling atmosphere.
Isaac frowned slightly. He could sense that this rune seemed to contain some kind of special power of rules, which could even distort space and time.
"This...?" Isaac was secretly on guard, but without fear, the Blade of Destiny in his hand ignited with golden light, ready to meet this unknown power.
The man in black robes sneered, "This is the 'World-Destroying Symbol' bestowed upon me by the Alliance of All Heavens. Once activated, it will detonate the surrounding space, turning everything into nothingness. Even the power of destiny cannot escape it!"
Isaac snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit. He slightly raised the Blade of Destiny in his hand and said in a low voice, "If you're confident you can destroy everything, then try it!"
The man in black robes said nothing more. The runes in his hand suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, and the surrounding space seemed to be completely torn apart. Countless dark forces surged wildly toward the runes, forming a huge black vortex that completely enveloped the entire space.
Isaac's expression was solemn. The power of destiny within him had been fully activated. He could feel this destructive power constantly pressing down on his body, as if it were about to tear his soul apart as well!
"System, unlock all permissions!" Isaac roared inwardly. He knew that he could no longer hold back any strength and had to unleash the power of destiny to the fullest extent in order to resist this destructive force!
A system notification sounded in his ear: [Warning: Unlocking permissions will result in severe energy consumption, but Energy Burst Mode has been activated.]
Isaac sneered, gripped the Blade of Destiny tightly, and slashed forward with tremendous force. In an instant, golden light, like a blazing sun, surged towards the black vortex, tearing its edge apart!
Upon seeing this, the man in black robes was astonished, clearly not expecting that Isaac would be able to retaliate under the pressure of the World-Destroying Symbol.
