Reborn as a Mountain: I Defy the Heavens with a Smile-Chapter 145: Rewards

However, this was just temporary since the heart realm entrapment was like a dream, which they can't recall too much. Nevertheless, this at least boosted their mental state for a while.

…

Swoosh!

Soon an hour passed like this and the fourth one to clear the trial was none other than Su Ying.

Lin Xian'er once again pulled Ye Chen to welcome him, and of course she did not forget to drag Li Mei.

There was no drama like last time because Su Ying has a quite personality so after smiling and saying a few words, she just stood silently with them. She did talk when the little girl inquired about something but except for that, she did not open her mouth and did not explain how her trial went.

Just like this, another hour passed, and the fifth one to clear the trial appeared. It was none other than Lan Ming who dramatically hugged Ye Chen and cried with fake tears, saying how she had waited thousands of decades.

Ye Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes at her actions with an amused look; however, he hugged her back and didn't let go until the old man started coughing.

After this episode another hour passed and finally Wang Yiyi managed to clear the trial. However, she was not happy because Crown Prince Ji Feng and Liu Jiarong did not try to compete with her.

Which meant her sixth place was something given by someone just because they wanted to make friends with Ye Chen. Li Mei and others did try to appease her; however, she was still unwilling to have sixth place like this.

But nothing could be changed so she remained in sixth place, while Crown Prince Ji Feng placed seventh and Liu Jiarong eighth.

After them were Xue Feng at ninth and Fatty Li Zhenyuan at tenth.

Just like this, the top ten were decided and the dark night transitioned into day.

There were still two hours remaining before the trial came to an end so the remaining disciples tried all they could. However, only fifteen of them managed to clear the trial, while the remaining one failed because of not having enough time and failing a few of the trials, which wasted their time.

Swoosh!

As soon as the trial came to an end, the eliminated disciples were pushed back and the stairs started to disappear.

"Damn it, I was not fast enough!"

"There are more than a thousand disciples who entered the mystic realm yet barely even thirty have managed to clear the trial."

"Don't forget if not for the help from Ye Chen, the numbers would be even less!"

"Yeah, does that mean only Lin Xian'er and Ye Chen have the ability to clear the trial?"

The disciples sighed with disappointment and frustration as they saw an opportunity slipping away.

It was at this moment the old man's voice echoed.

"Anyone who had been disqualified can still search for the treasures and various opportunities in the mystic realm. I know that many don't want to go back with just some herbs so I have left a Dao Heart Prism somewhere in the radius of a thousand miles!"

"Remember that this treasure cannot be taken; the only thing you can do is stay there and cultivate, which will increase your soul strength! If there are any soul injuries, then that can also be healed by cultivating beside the Dao Heart Prism!"

"However, the chances of some fierce beast, even a Qi condensation stage beast, taking over the prism are high so be careful. That's all I have to say. Now scram if you want!" the old man stated.

Hearing his words, the disciples below couldn't help but become excited, while Ye Chen's expression turned strange.

"Old man, are you talking about the white lump that looked like metal had surfaced on wood, rang like glass, and was indestructible?" he inquired.

The old man Yang Wuji couldn't help but be stunned after hearing him; nevertheless, he didn't think too much and nodded.

"It seems you have encountered that prism," he said and continued.

"That thing is actually a result of a cauldron explosion and by some coincidence it took the form that you are talking about. However, since it was useless to me and there were better methods to heal the soul, I just left it there for disciples," the old man explained.

"No wonder I wasn't able to recognize that thing." Ye Chen nodded with realization.

The old man still didn't know that Ye Chen had dug out that prism along with the part of mountain so he ignored his words and glanced at the twenty-five disciples who stood on the platform.

"As I have said, the top ten will be rewarded so let's not waste any time," the old man said and then flicked his sleeve.

Swoosh!

In that instant ten items appeared in the air surrounded by various auras.

"Let's start from the bottom. The tenth-place Li Zhenyuan receives the 'Sunfire Essence Jade.' This is a tier-6 item that can help with cleansing the spiritual Qi around you when you cultivate. It can even save you from hidden poison if used carefully."

"The ninth place Xue Feng receives a 'Moonlit Dewdrop.' This is also a tier-6 item, and once you consume it, your spiritual perception, mental state, and even your soul strength might increase permanently."

"The eighth place Liu Jiarong receives a 'Spirit Converging Pendant.' This is a tier-7 item that has a similar function to 'Sunfire Essence Jade,' but it is better. It can also help with gathering spiritual Qi, which means it also functions as an array."

"The seventh-place Ji Feng receives an 'Ironheart Fruit.' This is a tier-7 spirit fruit, which can raise your physical strength to new heights. It will even cleanse your body, which means removing all of the impurities."

"Next one is Wang Yiyi, who, placing in sixth place, receives a 'Cloud Spirit Tree.' Although this is just a seed, it can bear tier-7 spirit fruits and even tier-8 if you are lucky. Furthermore, the growth of this tree doesn't take too long, just a few years and every spirit fruit you get from it helps with cultivation immensely, even if you are at Nascent Soul or above."

"Now in fifth place is Lan Ming. You receive a 'Tear of Flaming Bird,' which is a tier-8 item and can help you immensely with anything fire-related. This treasure will also grant you a life-saving ability upon consumption but be careful since it has limited uses."

"The next one is Su Ying, placing in fourth place. You receive a 'Meridian Expansion Pill.' This is a tier-8 pill and is really rare. You should already know what it can do but let me explain a little. Once you consume this pill, your meridians will expand by ten centimeters. If you are lucky, then even more, which meant increasing your fighting ability to a terrifying level."

"Now comes the third place, Li Mei. You receive an 'Egg of Rainbow Peacock,' which is a tier-9 beast and has many special abilities, such as finding a hidden treasure. This beast is also great at fighting and flying."

"Finally comes the second-place winner, Lin Xian'er. You receive a tier-9 sword named 'Moonpetal Blade.' It is one of the rarest things I have made because this sword had a faint spirit and a tier-9 sword technique inside it. All you have to do is drop your blood and you will understand it." The old man said with a gentle smile as if she was his granddaughter.
