Hell Star can be said to be one of the most dangerous trial grounds on this Emperor Road.
Only one out of ten Prodigies who can come out alive from it survive.
But even so, countless Prodigies still rush forward one after another.
Because on Hell Star, there is an Opportunity to find Immortal Marrow to condense Immortal Qi.
Even if one is luckier and finds an Immortal Marrow ore vein, that would be a Heaven-Defying Opportunity, and they would be completely rich.
Of course, Immortal Marrow ore veins are very rare and are generally located deep within Hell Star; if a Prodigy who is not a minor Giant rashly goes deep, it is basically equivalent to courting death.
"Next, I will tell you some rules about Hell Star. Listen carefully, and don't blame me if you lose your life then," the commander said.
"Hell Star has eighteen layers from the surface to the depths. Of course, besides that, there is an additional layer, the 19th Layer, which I presume you have heard of," the commander said.
"Hell Star 19th Layer, could it be the legendary..." A Prodigy seemed to have thought of something, and his face turned pale, looking somewhat fearful.
"That's right, one of the seven wonders, Hell Star 19th Layer, is definitely not a place you can enter."
"However, in the past, Hell Star 19th Layer generally wouldn't open, but this time it might be different."
The commander's words made all the Prodigies in the training ground look more serious than ever before.
"One of the seven wonders, Hell Star 19th Layer..." Jun Xiaoyao murmured to himself.
At this moment, Jun Xiaoyao suddenly realized that the Hell 19th Layer among the seven wonders referred to Hell Star 19th Layer.
As everyone knows, Hell has eighteen layers.
That 19th Layer seems to have a profound meaning; no one knows what is inside.
Because no one who has entered has come out alive.
The commander continued, "We won't talk about the 19th Layer. As long as you don't court death, just don't go in."
"As for the other eighteen layers, each time you go down a layer, there will be a field that suppresses one-tenth of your abilities."
"For example, the first six layers are for the suppression of the Physical Body. Each time you go down a layer, your Physical Body will be given a restrictive shackle, suppressing one-tenth of your strength."
"Finally, when you reach the sixth layer, your Physical Body will only have four-tenths of its strength left."
"After going down another six layers, there will be restrictions on your magic power, just like the Physical Body. When you enter the twelfth layer, your magic power will also only have four-tenths left."
"The last six layers are for the suppression of the Primordial Spirit. If you can reach the eighteenth layer, your Primordial Spirit power will also only have four-tenths left."
"That is to say, if you go down to the bottom layer, all aspects of your abilities will only have four-tenths left."
The commander's words silenced all the Prodigies in the training ground, and they deeply swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"This... only four-tenths of our strength left in the end, how can we fight like this?"
"Exactly, Hell Star is already dangerous, and with only four-tenths of our strength left, isn't that just courting death?"
Many Prodigies felt that there was no difference between this and courting death.
"Who told you to go to the eighteenth layer? If you're not capable enough, just stay on the upper layers. If you're really timid, you can also withdraw," the commander said coldly.
These Prodigies secretly gritted their teeth, unwilling to give up.
If they were timid and retreated, it would have a great impact on their Dao Heart.
"Alas, I'm afraid only the minor Giants, and the Jun Family Divine Child and others, are qualified to go deep," some Prodigies vaguely looked at Jun Xiaoyao.
They were very curious whether Jun Xiaoyao actually had the ability to reach Hell Star 18th Layer.
"Alright, prepare yourselves. It should open in a few days."
After the commander finished speaking, his gaze turned to Jun Xiaoyao, Jade Buddha Son, Void Sword Child, and Sea God Third Prince. Then, with a wave of his hand, four streams of light fell towards them respectively.
"This is..." Jun Xiaoyao reached out and took it, finding that it was actually a jade talisman.
"This jade talisman can resist the field restraint of Hell Star for a quarter of an hour."
"That is to say, within a quarter of an hour, no matter which layer you are on, you can fully exert all your strength," the commander said.
"What, there's such a good thing?"
Other Prodigies, upon hearing this, their eyes burst forth with brilliant light.
This jade talisman was simply a life-saving talisman at a critical moment.
"May I ask, Lord Commander, where are our jade talismans?" A Prodigy cupped his hands and asked.
"You?" The commander glanced at him faintly: "None."
"How can this be, this is unfair!" Many Prodigies cried out.
"If you have their talent, strength, and family background, you can certainly ask me for it. If not, then don't blabber," the commander flicked his hand, no longer bothering with them.
All the Prodigies looked ugly.
This was the privileged class.
However, they couldn't say anything to refute.
Sea God Third Prince is the Prince of Sea King Ancient Star Territory, and Void Sword Child's backer, Venerable of the Void Sword, is a renowned Supreme Expert.
Jade Buddha Son is backed by the Immortal Ancient Sect Little Western Heaven.
As for Jun Xiaoyao...
Not to mention him, his background is the most prominent among the four, backed by two Ancient Desolate Families.
Which Prodigy present could have such a background?
Moreover, they didn't know that Jun Xiaoyao was the Jun Ditian Lord; if they knew, they would probably be even more shocked.
Jun Xiaoyao was simply the epitome of power, and only he dared to disregard the Emperor Road rules, and no one dared to accuse him.
"Damn privileged class..." Some Prodigies secretly gritted their teeth, but there was nothing they could do.
This was reality.
"Exerting full strength within a quarter of an hour, that's not bad."
Jun Xiaoyao was not polite and directly put it away.
Fairness and justice, those were things to fool children.
It would be a fool not to take advantage of it.
The next few days were calm; nothing happened.
Jade Buddha Son and the others were also very restrained and did not trouble Jun Xiaoyao again.
However, it was clear that after entering Hell Star, a fierce battle would erupt.
Finally, about seven or eight days passed.
The distant Hell Star trembled again, and various resentments, hatreds, and other negative emotions were boiling, as if turning into substantial blood mist.
Even though the training ground and Hell Star were some distance apart, the Prodigies could still feel that trembling sensation.
For a moment, some Prodigies' hearts began to pound, and they felt like retreating.
"Alright, the teleportation array will open. After you step in, you will be randomly teleported to various corners of Hell Star."
The commander appeared and activated the training ground's teleportation array.
Jun Xiaoyao, Mu Yuehan, Golden Winged Little Peng King, and others appeared.
Jade Buddha Son, Void Sword Child, and others also appeared.
Sea God Third Prince's gaze carried a gloomy look as he coldly glanced at Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao, however, remained calm and composed, completely ignoring any gazes.
"Let's go." Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward, being the first to enter the teleportation array.
One movement affected the whole body, and the other Prodigies also stepped into the teleportation array one after another.
Jin Gu Xuan, Qing Hong, Hong Ling, the black-robed cloaked person, and others also stepped in.
Of course, not all Prodigies had this courage, and some Prodigies stayed behind.
Also, Nine-Headed Lion and Kong Xuan were both left behind and did not enter Hell Star.
"Master, you must teach that long-haired bald donkey a lesson!" Nine-Headed Lion roared.
"Impossible, my Buddha Son is truly invincible!" Kong Xuan retorted.
