Chapter 491: Spirit of the Divine Throne

"What makes you think you can win?"

The Light Orb spoke, asking in return.

He knew that the living being he was testing must contain some kind of power, extremely mysterious and extremely powerful; otherwise, he would not have failed both rounds of the assessment.

But what they were facing now was a true Calamity, not the fakes from before, and this Calamity was also a so-called unsolvable Unknown disaster—how could an ordinary living being resolve it?

Let alone an ordinary living being.

Even a true Sacred being could not!

"Then just watch."

Li Heng smiled calmly and did not waste any more words with this suddenly appearing Light Orb. Facing the incoming Unknown Calamity, he raised his palm slightly, with Source Power imbued upon it.

Subsequently, a ripple of power surged forth, attacking the Unknown Calamity.

What is the Unknown?

Indescribable, formless, impossible to understand?

These are likely all wrong.

If the Unknown could be described by these words, then it would not be truly Unknown, because these words would have already defined the Unknown, making it Known.

Naturally, the Unknown is not necessarily impossible to understand.

The Unknown can be completely transformed into the Known.

It is just like discovering unknown knowledge or finding an unknown treasure. Before they are explored, they are unknown; after they are explored, they are known.

But what Li Heng was facing now.

Was not some thing or matter existing within the Unknown.

But a collection of certain Unknown concepts! It is very difficult, or even impossible, to transform such a collection into the Known. If one insists on forcing such a definition, it could be described this way.

Therefore, it was very difficult for Li Heng to describe, impossible to describe; what this Unknown Calamity actually was—the so-called black mist, Inauspiciousness, and being indescribable might merely be its external manifestations.

Hence, it was very difficult to deal with.

Or rather, there was no way to deal with it!

After all, the Unknown means you do not even know what the thing you are dealing with is, leaving you with no way to start.

Killing a person is because you know that if a person is killed, they will die.

But killing the Unknown? Can the Unknown be killed?

Li Heng was not sure.

But he did not care, and the Source Power did not care.

With his current realm, he had absolutely no idea how to deal with a truly Unknown thing, so he handed these matters over entirely to the Source Power to handle.

He did not know, but the Source Power should know, right?

He could not, but the Source Power should be able to, right?

In any case, the Source Power was born from his Visualization Divine Ability, condensed and transformed, so it could be considered his own power; it was just that this power was too heaven-defying, and he usually did not count it as part of his own.

It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat; a cat that catches a Mouse is a good cat.

In the end, rounding it up, he was still the one who resolved the Unknown Calamity.

So, under this ripple of power imbued with Source Power, the Calamity, which should have been Unknown and impossible to understand, underwent a miraculous change, seemingly transforming—transforming into the Known.

This transformation did not diminish the power of the Calamity.

But it pulled it from an Unknown state into a Known state.

Since it was now Known, there were means to deal with it!

The Light Orb being beside Li Heng was stunned.

What was that just now?

Why did he feel that this suddenly descended Unknown Calamity was not so unknown anymore? In his own mind, he could now use multiple words to describe this Calamity: indescribable, Terror, Inauspiciousness, and so on.

But these were not the characteristics of an Unknown Calamity at all.

What on earth did this living being do?

He looked at Li Heng beside him in shock.

With such a strange situation occurring, he was not a fool, and he quickly locked the suspicion onto Li Heng; after all, only he and Li Heng were present, and he certainly could not have done it.

"How did you do it!"

At this moment, he even slightly forgot that he was supposed to guide Li Heng to escape, or rather, there was no need to escape anymore, and he finally could not suppress his curiosity and asked in confusion.

"How did I do it?"

"Before answering this question, shouldn't you first confess everything about yourself? Who exactly are you? Where exactly is this? What do you want to do? Was this Unknown Calamity brought here by you?"

Li Heng asked calmly, feeling a bit of heartache inside.

Transforming this portion of the Unknown Calamity into a Known state had caused his Source Power reserves to drop directly to the warning line, almost consuming them entirely.

It seems this Unknown Calamity is truly a Terror.

And this was merely a fragment...

He pondered in his heart.

"Are you asking me? I am the Spirit of the Divine Throne, the artifact spirit of the imperial seat you were sitting under just now, and this place is a space evolved from an assessment."

"As for the content of the assessment..."

"It is to test whether you are qualified to succeed to the position of the Heavenly Emperor!"

The Spirit of the Divine Throne pondered for a moment and said slowly.

He felt that there was no need for concealment at this point, nor was there any need to continue the assessment. After all, this living being was truly mysterious, and his power was truly a Terror.

"Assessment? Succeed to the position of the Heavenly Emperor?"

Li Heng raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He had anticipated the previous trial.

But as for the latter, succeeding to the position of Heavenly Emperor, he had not expected it quite as much; at the very least, he believed the possibility was very slim.

After all, judging by the words of the many Immortal Gods, they all felt that the Heavenly Emperor was definitely still alive; since the Heavenly Emperor was still alive, then why choose a living being to succeed to the position of Heavenly Emperor? Was this not a bit...

"That is correct, this is the trial left behind by the Heavenly Emperor."

The Spirit of the Throne said.

"I know you have many questions in your heart, but the crisis has not been completely resolved yet. If you can resolve this true Calamity, your trial will have been officially passed."

He did not intend to make a move, wanting to let Li Heng make a move instead.

Thereby testing the upper limit of Li Heng's strength.

"This can no longer be considered a crisis, but an opportunity."

Li Heng said with a smile.

He was actually afraid that it wouldn't be a true Calamity!

Right now, the state of the Unknown Calamity had already been converted into the known by Source Power, and the scale of this Calamity fragment was not very large, much smaller than the one entrenched in Xianshi Tiandi.

It was exactly within the range he could deal with.

An opportunity?

The Spirit of the Throne was surprised, feeling that Li Heng had a very arrogant tone.

One must know that back then, many Heavenly Court Sacred beings could not do anything about this Unknown Calamity, and some of the weaker ones were even suppressed by the Unknown Calamity to the point of fleeing in panic, completely losing their Sacred majesty.

Are you, a strange living being who has not attained the Sacred Dao and at most only possesses Divine Power, really qualified to say such things?

If I am not mistaken.

That strange power of yours is just about used up, right?

He secretly guessed in his heart, and he did not believe he had guessed wrong.

This was actually a very simple matter; if that strange power had not been used up, this living being should have long ago been erased by the known Calamity.

Even if it was not used up, there could not be much left!

Li Heng simply raised a hand, mobilized the Eternal Power he possessed, even borrowed the Infinite power of the Infinite Mechanism, and finally, his Heaven and Earth Dharma Form and the Thirty-Six Heavens emerged, unleashing a supreme strike!
