Chapter 217: Chapter 215: Trial Settlement Rewards
“Heavenly Tribulation, it’s actually this Heavenly Tribulation.” Shen Hao was also somewhat surprised.
When he first saw the words ‘Heavenly Tribulation System,’ he had wondered what it could be.
But it must be said, the Heavenly Tribulation System’s role is not minor.
Now, some ordinary cultivators who had access to ample resources already possessed level seven or eight abilities, and many with outstanding talents had even reached the tenth.
Otherwise, they couldn’t have formed such a vast army, let alone withstand the assaults of the undead.
However, those who had reached the second stage were few and far between.
Excluding the Chosen Ones, only less than five thousand ordinary cultivators had reached the Extraordinary Second Stage!
After all, this kind of breakthrough is not so simple, as there exists a clear threshold.
But now, with this Heavenly Tribulation System, the number of people breaking through will inevitably greatly increase.
As for the risks… they could possibly be mitigated from elsewhere as well.
For instance, special equipment, special ammo.
Even if certain sacrifices are necessary, they are worthwhile. In the face of the Civilization Trial, exchanging sacrifices for power is always more worthwhile than sacrifices during the trial itself.

“Among the three rewards, two are for development,” Shen Hao whispered to himself, “It’s quite good.”
He was quite satisfied with the outcome of the rewards.
From the perspective of the Civilization Trial, civilization rewards are actually much more important than personal rewards.
However, Shen Hao also had expectations for the personal rewards.
He switched to the personal reward interface.
[In the third ranking settlement of this trial, you have earned the first place on the Chosen Ones’ leaderboard.]
[You can choose any three of the following rewards:]
[1. Golden Legendary Ability Ball Experience Pack x100]
[2, Ability bar x1]
[3, Golden Legendary Profession Exclusive Building x1]
“Profession Exclusive Building?” Shen Hao immediately noticed the newly introduced reward category.
The experience pack seems to be an inevitable appearance, the ability bar is also good, but the Profession Exclusive Building was somewhat unexpected.
From the previous two ranking rewards, anything tagged “Profession Exclusive” had powerful effects.
This might be related to Shen Hao’s profession being a Mythical specific one.
If it was a choice of one from three, without a doubt, the Profession Exclusive must be chosen!
Although it was not a choice of one from three right now, Shen Hao still chose the third reward first.
Just like when he first chose the Profession Exclusive Equipment, the selection box popped up again.
[Please choose: Attack Type, Defense Type, Utility Type]
“Attack and defense… I should not need them,” Shen Hao had a certain understanding of his own strength and foundation—if the enemy he now faced couldn’t be dealt with by him, then having one more Golden Legendary building might not be decisive.
Therefore, he directly chose the Utility Type.
[Checking profession]
[Generating]
[Generation complete, please collect]
Along with the final prompt appearing, a ‘Great Hall’ beyond description appeared on the interface!
Yes, a Great Hall!
Shen Hao slightly widened his eyes, even though the image on the interface was just a miniature, he could clearly sense the luxury and grandeur of this Great Hall.
It didn’t even have a top!
Dominantly golden, with a dazzling Holy Light halo, at first glance, a long golden staircase stretched upward, layer by layer, leading up to a massive golden hall. Even though there was nothing on the hall in the picture, Shen Hao seemed to see gods and Buddhas residing there, overlooking all beneath them.
Yes, this hall was clearly not meant for mere mortal emperors, but rather it was meant for the gods of heaven and earth!
Shen Hao didn’t ponder further and immediately checked the system information.
[Name: Emperor Palace, Lingxiao Hall]
[Quality: Golden Legend]
[Level: 22 (40)]
[Main hall of the Emperor Palace, can enhance the Emperor’s Power, hidden within the Lingxiao Void, and the only path to it is the Heavenly Ascension Ladder. It can appear in any void, houses thirty-six Immortal Official Positions, and those appointed can be promoted in status.]
[Note: Part of the Mythical-level building, Emperor Palace!]
“This building…” As Shen Hao read the simple introduction, a sense of awe also surged within him.
The text was brief, but the information conveyed was not little.
Enhancing the Emperor’s Power seemed to possess a function similar to the [Emperor’s Throne], and the ‘Heavenly Ascension Ladder’ appeared to have a certain teleportation function, and as for the Immortal Official Positions, there was no need to mention, this was about status!
Today, apart from Shen Hao, no other Chosen Ones in human civilization have any advantage in status, which is why Shen Hao valued the Consciousness of the Life Mother Tree so much.
Status represents potential and also power beyond levels!
Even if the statuses offered by this Golden Legendary building were not on the level of the Life Mother Tree, without a doubt, the chosen thirty-six ‘Immortal Officials’ would possess higher potential and stronger power!
Even the phrase ‘hidden within the void’ seemed to suggest certain concealed and defensive capabilities.
The most important aspect was the note.
Mythical-level building!
This [Emperor Palace, Lingxiao Hall] was actually part of a Mythical-level building!
This means that if other parts are collected in the future, could he attain a Mythical-level building exclusive to his profession?
Anything related to the Mythical level is never simple!
So far, Shen Hao’s strongest foundation, aside from his cheat, was his Mythical Talent and Mythical Level Profession!
“It seems, I can’t easily overlook the ranking rewards in the coming trials.” Shen Hao didn’t know how long it would take to gather them, but he wouldn’t miss any opportunity that came his way.
He claimed all the individual rewards immediately.
And after retrieving the “Emperor’s Palace, Lingxiao Palace,” Shen Hao was even more amazed.
He could clearly feel that a hall, grander and more magnificent than he expected, was situated within some special space.
It wasn’t a space similar to a Pocket World Blessed Land; if anything, it resembled the “Undead World” more.
It was a relatively independent dimension!
At that moment, with just a thought, Shen Hao’s figure appeared above the main seat of the great hall.
And the instant he appeared, his body trembled slightly and a massive phantom emerged directly behind him. It was an extension of power, a manifestation of authority, as if he had truly become the Heavenly Emperor, overlooking the entire world with a gaze that could easily reach other planets.
If Shen Hao wished, he could materialize the “Heavenly Ascension Ladder” to any place in any world!
“Truly deserving of something exclusive to an Emperor,” Shen Hao could only sigh with feeling in the end.
He naturally felt that this hall was far more than what the introduction detailed.
At this moment, he could even feel the “Dominator Domain” spreading and solidifying.
Yes, the “Dominator Domain,” which like “Dominator pressure”, usually required certain consumption to be exhibited, was now fixed around this area.
This point alone would make this hall a sacred place for cultivation!
And there was more.
Looking at the thirty-six clearly visible positions above the hall, Shen Hao sensed it wasn’t just about bestowing Immortal Officials; it seemed he could also section off part of his abilities and mastered laws!
When sitting here, he even felt that the hall was beyond Golden Legendary Level!
It can only be said, truly befitting a part of a Red Mythical construction!
“Heavenly Emperor, indeed Emperor!” Shen Hao was very satisfied.
However, his expression turned slightly serious.
Presently, the ranking rewards were, frankly, just minor rewards.
Whether civilization ranking or individual ranking, it was the same.
The truly important aspect was the Civilization Trial’s settlement rewards!
Both for individuals and for civilization, this was what really mattered.
After all, the biggest use of the cheat was to shear the Civilization Trial’s wool, but the quality and quantity of that wool had to be sufficient!
With a mix of solemnity and anticipation, Shen Hao opened the trial settlement.
[Settling…]
The text that appeared briefly underwent rapid change.
[Civilization Surviving Individuals Number: 99.2%, Evaluation: SS]
[Civilization Ecological Preservation Degree: 95.2%, Evaluation: SS]
[Civilization Level Growth Evaluation: SS+]
[Overall Evaluation: SS+]
[Civilization Rewards as follows:]
[1. The concentration of Extraordinary Elements within the planet increased to Level 30]
[2. The planet’s diameter increased to three times its size]
[3. The number of Chosen One slots increased to three times, to be distributed in succession]
[4. Open “Civilization System” page, obtain x3 Subordinate Civilization slots]
[Detected your points are the highest in this trial among all civilizations, please check Chosen One rewards]
“Civilization System page?” Seeing the fourth reward, Shen Hao was thrilled.
Although he did not know exactly what this “Civilization System” entailed, the significance of the words “subordinate civilization” couldn’t be clearer!
Clearly, this was what Erin Ellie had seen previously regarding civilization relations!
Three slots, enough to comfortably include both the Sky Spirit Civilization and the Great Yan Civilization.
Even though Shen Hao had anticipated this, it still turned out to be the biggest surprise among the settlement rewards!
Moreover, the other rewards also slightly exceeded expectations.
Shen Hao had thought it would only rise to Level 20, but it turned out to be Level 30!
What does an increase in Extraordinary Elements concentration to Level 30 imply?
It was an upgrade directly from Level 10 of the first stage to the pinnacle of the third stage!
This wasn’t just a threefold increase, calling it three hundredfold wouldn’t be an exaggeration!
After all, Extraordinary Elements are not only about concentration but also about quality!
Level 30 implies, even without marketplace resources, that even Non-Chosen Ones could rely on the planet’s Extraordinary Elements to achieve Level 30 strength!
This was a massive boost to the civilization’s strength!
Everyone’s cultivation speed would skyrocket!
Moreover, the increase in the planet’s diameter to three times its original size.
This reward also came somewhat unexpectedly.
The Human Mother Planet is indeed not large, whether the Sky Spirit Mother Planet or Great Yan Mother Planet, they are roughly three or four times the size of the Human Mother Planet.
But, an increase to three times the diameter! This was no minor enhancement!
