Feeling a sense of relief washing over him upon seeing the miniature celestial gate, Xuan Hao didn't waste any time as he used his strength to burst forth. Momentarily increasing his speed beyond the ferocious beasts chasing after him. Allowing him to smoothly cross the last bit of distance between himself and the massive floating stone platform that the miniature celestial gate was located on top of… And, soon enough, found himself standing directly in front of the miniature celestial gate that served as the core of the sea of lightning and the goal of the celestial trial.
Hm? This… The gate isn't open…?
However, as he found himself standing in front of the miniature celestial gate barely a few heads taller than himself, he was shocked to discover that the miniature celestial gate was closed shut.
Even when he tried pushing it open on his own, he found himself unable to move the gate.
