Divine King of Honour

Xu Tong spat out another mouthful of fresh blood.

He then struggled to get up from the ground.

The rebound attack from the Donghuang Bell had directly injured his organs, were it not for his timely use of Spiritual Energy to protect his body.

The attack would not only have returned all his offensive power but also magnified it on its original basis.

Thus, the move just now was equivalent to Xu Tong taking a full-strength hit from a stronger expert.

Such an onslaught was truly hard to guard against.

The surrounding crowd was also surprised.

They hadn't expected the enormous bell before them to rebound attacks.

The more power they used,

the stronger the bell's rebound attack, wouldn't it be?

People furrowed their eyebrows at that moment.

"Ha ha, although this bell isn't the real Donghuang Bell, it is, after all, an Immortal Artifact. Whether you can ring this bell depends on your own fate," laughed the illusory figure of Emperor Bai.

Having said that, his form disappeared from everyone's view.

Seeing this, the people around started discussing fervently.

Clearly, they were deliberating over how to make their move.

Xu Nian was also somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected the final assessment method to be like this.

And to ring this bell was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

"I'll give it a try!"

At that moment.

Fang Hong from the Fang Family stood up.

Everyone's gaze was cast onto him.

Fang Hong was at the Peak of Four Star Battle King Level,

a realm higher than Xu Tong.

Thus, people weren't sure whether Fang Hong could ring the giant bell.

Fang Hong stepped out of the crowd, with his Peak of Four Star Battle King Level cultivation fully unleashed.

However, he wasn't empty-handed but instead brought out a Battle Saber.

Clearly, he wasn't planning on attacking at close range but intended to launch a long-range attack.

After figuring out Fang Hong's intention, everyone secretly sighed at his cunning.

In this way, even if the gigantic bell rebounded the attack,

he would have ample time to deal with the rebound.

However, Xu Nian just sneered.

Could this imitation of the Donghuang Bell really be that simple?

"Thunderclap Slash!"

Fang Hong made his move.

With a loud shout, a huge Sword Light slashed out of his battle saber.

The Sword Light crashed down instantly towards the heavy bell.

Everyone's eyes turned to the giant bell,

eager to see what effects Fang Hong's strike would have.

"Buzz!"

However, his attack landed on the bell and was directly absorbed, causing no sound at all.

"As expected, it didn't ring! But such a method of attack could indeed prevent rebound damage,"

the crowd thought to themselves.

Just then, a terrifying fluctuation burst from the bell.

A Sword Light, stronger than Fang Hong's initial slash, fiercely swept towards him.

Its speed was incredibly fast!

Fang Hong gasped in shock and hurriedly swung his saber to block.

"Clang!"

Yet, the Sword Light hit the battle saber and sent Fang Hong flying along with it.

His body smashed into a wall, and he violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

The crowd saw this scene and expressions of astonishment appeared on their faces.

The speed of the Sword Light just now was too fast, easily more than twice the speed of the Sword Light Fang Hong had unleashed.

So even though Fang Hong was standing far away, he still couldn't withstand this terrifying attack.

Two people had now been injured by the rebound attack of the giant bell.

This made everyone feel a sense of gravity.

Xu Nian silently stood aside, watching all of this unfold.

He was pondering a question.

Since this giant bell could absorb the attack power of others and rebound it back,

wouldn't all attacks be ineffective?

Unless someone's attack level could reach the energy absorption limit of this bell.

But could the limit of an Immortal Artifact be easily reached?

It was likely even a Saint couldn't manage that.

Indeed, members of the Ye Family also tried.

The results were exactly the same.

Their attacks not only failed to make the giant bell tremble,

on the contrary, they were injured by their own attacks.

This caused everyone to be even more cautious about trying.

Later, Leng Cangfeng also made an attempt.

However, with his Nine-star Battle King Peak Level cultivation, he still could not budge the bell.

This plunged everyone into sudden despair.

If even a Nine-star Peak Expert couldn't budge it, then who could?

"I will!"

As everyone sighed, Xia Zhenglei stepped forward.

All eyes turned to this Prince of the Tianhen Empire.

They all knew that although the Seventh Prince was only at the Peak of Eight-star War King Level,

he must have incredibly powerful methods.

Sure enough, after stepping forward, Xia Zhenglei actually produced a sword.

As soon as the sword appeared, a strong Purple Emperor's aura emanated from it.

"Um, could this possibly be an Immortal Sword?"

The surrounding crowd immediately showed surprised expressions.

Xia Zhenglei actually produced an Immortal Sword.

Using one Immortal Artifact against another, how could the bell possibly remain silent?

Everyone shook their heads in resignation.

It seemed the dragon vein would ultimately belong to the Imperial Family.

Xu Nian was also somewhat amazed.

He didn't expect that the Seventh Prince would actually possess an Immortal Artifact.

Xia Zhenglei's face also revealed a triumphant expression.

In his view, with the Immortal Sword in hand, he could easily ring this counterfeit Donghuang Bell.

"This sword is named Purple Dragon, it is a peerless treasure of the Xia Family. Today, I will use this sword to ring this giant bell and enter the dragon nest to seize the dragon vein," Xia Zhenglei shouted loudly.

He then waved the Immortal Sword in his hand towards the bell.

As the Immortal Sword was thrust, it emitted a terrifying roar of a dragon.

It seemed as if a purple giant dragon soared into existence, fiercely slamming into the bell.

Everyone's eyes widened as they watched the giant bell.

However, the anticipated sound did not occur; instead, the Purple Dragon Sword Qi that burst from the sword upon impact with the bell directly vanished.

"What?"

Xia Zhenglei was immediately shocked, unable to believe that even using Purple Dragon didn't ring the bell.

The surrounding crowd was also taken aback.

Xia Zhenglei's move had already surpassed the full force strike of an ordinary Half-Saint Expert.

Yet such an attack still failed to ring the bell, then who could?

Just then, a powerful purple fluctuation began to emerge from the bell.

"Not good, Your Highness, get out of the way!"

From a distance, an old man with cloudy eyes suddenly shot a sharp light from his eyes and instantly shot forward.

"Buzz!"

A terrifying purple sword light burst out from the body of the bell and fiercely slashed towards Xia Zhenglei.

Xia Zhenglei was greatly alarmed; however, the might of the Immortal Sword wasn't so easily resisted.

"Boom!"

The old man appeared in front of the Seventh Prince, fiercely striking out with a palm.

The might of the Half-Saint fully emerged, directly clashing with that purple sword light.

"Pu!"

The Half-Saint old man sprayed out blood, the purple sword qi directly severed one of his arms.

His entire body was instantly sent flying.

Witnessing this scene, everyone was astonishingly surprised.

A Half-Saint Expert was severely injured, how then could the bell be rung?
