Under normal circumstances, Lu Yao did not possess the ability to clear the trials and obtain the Ancient Mecha fair and square. If she did not obtain it through the trial, she must have cheated.
To cheat in this place was impossible for many people. After all, no matter how dilapidated the place was, it was still a secret realm set up by the ancient civilization. To bypass the trial was undoubtedly an arduous task.
However, for Lu Yao, this was not necessarily impossible. After all, she was the reincarnation of the Golden King, and she had strong followers like Ye Zi. It could be impossible for others, but it was entirely possible for her to bypass the trials in this ruin.
However, Chen Heng was not too optimistic about this. From the current situation, the Ancient Mecha was not a simple existence. If one did not have the corresponding will and conviction, it would be challenging to utilize it entirely, even if one obtained such a secret treasure.
With Lu Yao’s current ability, even if she had obtained the Ancient Mecha here through a cheating method, if she wanted to use it, it would probably require a very long period of growth before she could do so.
However, this had nothing to do with Chen Heng for the time being. Chen Heng turned around and walked forward. As he stepped forward, he truly walked into the stone palace in front of him.
The huge palace was displayed before his eyes. The statues carved on the stones were so realistic, and the images they displayed were all different and unique.
Chen Heng walked forward, and as he walked past this place, the things he saw were also different. If an ordinary person came here and looked at these statues, perhaps they would only be able to see the appearance of these statues.
But to Chen Heng, he was able to see many different things. There was an invisible force. The statues had a will and belief attached to them in front of him.
These wills were different. Chen Heng could sense that they had different beliefs but were equally pure and powerful. Even though countless years had passed, they had not completely disappeared and remained here.
These must have been things left behind by the past ancestors. These statues must have been the operators of the Ancient Mecha in the past, and they were built here for future generations to admire.
Who knew how many years had passed. Until now, the people of the past had long disappeared, and no one knew where they had gone. However, their spirits and wills were still left behind, reappearing in such a way for Chen Heng to observe.
Chen Heng’s heart moved as he stood on the road. He did not do much. He just silently sensed the will and faith remaining on the statues around him, fusing with them and clashing with them.
Even for him, this was a great baptism. Chen Heng had already used his actions to prove himself by walking all the way here. His will was tough and strong, not inferior to any heroes in the past.
But the remnant wills here were also equally tough and pure. Through the confrontation of these remnant wills, Chen Heng’s own will was also slowly rising, slowly sublimating inexplicably.
To Chen Heng, this was a great harvest. Even though Chen Heng was still anxious about the Ancient Mecha in this ruin before this, he changed his mind after arriving at this place. In the process of clashing with the wills around him, his mind seemed to become pure gradually, slowly becoming calm.
But even in this process, his footsteps were still steady and firm. Step by step, he walked through the path paved with stones. He was like a stone, calm and tenacious. Finally, he walked to the end of this path.
“You’re here, challenger…”
A voice came from the front.
Chen Heng subconsciously raised his head and looked forward. Under his gaze, he could clearly see a figure standing in front of him.
It was a white-haired old man. His face was full of wrinkles, and he looked extremely old. However, there was a smile on his face as he stood in the distance, looking at Chen Heng with a face full of smiles.
From what Chen Heng could sense, the old man in front of him appeared to be illusory. He clearly existed, but not entirely. The old man here was just an existence forcefully manifested by illusion.
In other words, the person in front of him was actually just a brand. He was an existence that had been manifested by the will that remained in this place and had resurfaced.
Chen Heng stared at the old man for a moment before lowering his head. A smile also appeared on his face. “Hello…
“As you think, I am the guardian of this place.”
Standing opposite him, the old man had a warm smile on his face. Looking at the expression on Chen Heng’s face, he could not help but smile. “There’s no need to say too much.
“Simply put, you have already passed my trial. This was why you could reach here.
“The Hero Armor chose you.
“And now, it’s time for you to take on the Final Test.”
He looked at Chen Heng in front of him and finally said.
“The Final Test?”
Chen Heng frowned and was somewhat puzzled as he listened to the old man’s words in front of him.. As if seeing through his doubts, the old man’s voice sounded from the other side.
