The Medallion novel Chapter 1845

Although everyone knew that this trip to the Ghostly Demon Land would determine the successor of the king, none of them knew exactly what kind of trial was waiting for them. Hence, the members of the royal family and even the people from the nine fiefs were all wondering how the successor would be chosen in the end.

But of course, no matter what task it would be, they were sure that it would require tremendous strength and skill. Therefore, at this time, everyone was busy making full preparations before they entered the Ghostly Demon Land.

At the same time, Rocky was also carefully planning his schemes that would take advantage of the internal strife in the royal family. This way, he could weaken the Shura Race as much as possible.

After a few days of polishing his plans, Rocky sent a letter to Eunice, who was currently at the border of the Shura Race's territory. The letter contained Rocky's detailed plan, and Eunice was tasked to deliver it to the Di Clan so that Colton could study it. After all, Rocky trusted them to help him with his overall goals.

Moreover, Rocky also assigned some tasks to the independent army. Once he entered the Ghostly Demon Land, his army was to make some feints on the Shura Race's defenses to throw their guards off.

Then, eventually, the day to enter the Ghostly Demon Land came.

There was actually a teleportation site in the living area of the Shura Race's royal family that directly connected to the Ghostly Demon Land. It was already there since the time of their ancestors, and anyone could directly enter the Ghostly Demon Land through it.

At this time, dozens of powerful warriors from the Shura Race were gathered around the teleportation circle. They stood in three groups, which obviously represented the three main candidates.

Among these three, Zain's camp boasted the strongest members. He had two masters at the premium stage of the Shura Realm, three at the medium stage, and eight at the primary stage. In addition to these Shura Realm masters, there were also a dozen Emperor Realm masters at the peak stage.

Enoch's camp was almost on par with Zain's. He only lacked a master at the premium stage of the Shura Realm, but the rest were already the same.

Meanwhile, Layla's camp was undoubtedly the weakest. The masters at each stage of the Shura Realm were fewer compared to both Zain and Enoch, making her camp at a distinct disadvantage.

However, since the king was yet to announce the task that they needed to complete in the Ghostly Demon Land, Layla's camp was still confident that the overall strength of the team would not decide the outcome of the trial. Although anyone could aspire to complete the challenge and be the next ruler, it was obvious that the rest only came to assist the three main candidates.

"I believe that you are already well prepared to go to the Ghostly Demon Land. But of course, before you go, I am going to announce the content of the trial. The task is very straightforward and simple, but don't think that it's going to be easy. You are to enter the Demon Sealing Palace, collect a bottle of Phillip's spiritual power, and bring it back to me!" the king declared loud and clear.

"Pardon me, Your Majesty. But what if multiple people were able to accomplish it? How would the winner be decided then?" Zain immediately stepped forward to clarify his point.

"The one who finishes the task first wins! I know you already know this, but each one of you, who are present here, may have the chance to become my successor! However, I must warn you. The Ghostly Demon Land is a very dangerous place. Even with your strength, it would not be easy to make it back alive, let alone complete the task. So, before you step on the teleportation circle, make sure that you have already made up your mind. After all, you might not be able to come back anymore. But of course, if you overcome the Ghostly Demon Land, I am certain that you can gain a lot from it. Now, make your choice!" The king was very clear when he explained everything. The Ghostly Demon Land was like a double-edged sword, so he had no choice but to issue a firm warning to everyone who wanted to enter it. The task needed to determine the best candidate to become the king's successor was indeed very difficult. After all, the power of the royal family's bloodline was beyond what ordinary people could imagine. It could not just fall in anyone's hands.

"Your Majesty, allow us to go now!" After saying this, Zain led his team and immediately stepped on the teleportation circle.
