Chapter 1316: Chapter 1316: Need to Work Hard
The Sky Scar Labyrinth is a major event in the Submarine World. When Qin Sisi and Ye You first arrived here, countless various creatures had gathered, evidently showing its large scale.
With so many creatures, it’s impossible for every one to persist until the end and obtain the legendary magic heritage; those who fail mid-way end up similarly to her.
If failing a challenge ant paying with one’s life, the Sky Scar Labyrinth likely wouldn’t attract so many creatures in pursuit.
As Qin Sisi had guessed, after being swallowed into the belly of the Deep Sea Shark, she did not die. In the Sky Scar Labyrinth, each checkpoint BOSS is a magic power transformation and won’t truly kill soone.
But that feeling of helplessness and terror when being swallowed is real, and recalling it makes one’s heart feel cold.
When Qin Sisi opened her eyes, she found herself back at the entrance of the Sky Scar Labyrinth. Unlike the initial multitude of people, now the surroundings were empty, with only a few scattered creatures looking around blankly like her, presumably having just co out of the Sky Scar Labyrinth as well.
Qin Sisi didn’t know whether she had cleared too few or too many checkpoints; she glanced around and did not find Ye You’s figure. With Ye You’s strength, he would surely clear more checkpoints than her, so he should still be inside the Sky Scar Labyrinth, not yet teleported out.
Therefore, she decided to stay and wait for Ye You.
After a while, a voice ca from behind: "Mrs. Qin, you ca out."
Qin Sisi turned her head, seeing a man with a human upper body and fish tail, handso in appearance, with a faint sadness in his brows—it was Zhuo Chen.
She nodded in response: "Yes, did you just co out?"
Zhuo Chen smiled and nodded, saying with so helplessness: "The Deep Sea Shark at the fifth checkpoint was too powerful; I held out for a long ti but couldn’t win."
Qin Sisi deliberately used a lighter tone: "I was also eliminated at the fifth checkpoint, swallowed into the Deep Sea Shark’s belly."
Both laughed then, Zhuo Chen asked: "Are you waiting for General Ye You?"
Qin Sisi nodded, not hiding her concern for Ye You.
Zhuo Chen sat down not far from Qin Sisi, looking through the azure seawater into the distance, sighing: "You are truly happy; I envy you."
Qin Sisi looked deeply at Zhuo Chen. Her relationship with Ye You was indeed good, but speaking of happiness, it wasn’t necessarily so.
Her body was extrely weak, though transforming into a cat slowed the deterioration, but according to Master Yipiao, without the Life Divine Water, she would ultimately et her death.
However, the power of Hai Cangming she and Ye You had already witnessed, and it was almost impossible to snatch the Life Divine Water from him.
The helpless worry in her heart, and the pressure Ye You bore, couldn’t be described with the word "happiness."
After pausing, Qin Sisi softly said: "Everyone has their burdens to bear, but in any situation, one should not give up trying."
Zhuo Chen smiled bitterly, sighing: "I’m not afraid of hardship; I’m just afraid, afraid that after a lifeti of effort, I will still gain nothing."
He was just an ordinary rmaid, becoming a general of the rmaid Tribe through continuous effort and winning the love of Princess Xuemo.
Yet, Princess Xuemo was taken by Hai Cangming, whose magic power was incredibly strong. He wanted to save his beloved but was no match for Hai Cangming, which was the most painful and helpless feeling in the world.
Even if he tried harder, he was still just an ordinary rmaid and could never defeat Hai Cangming, the Deity, aning he might never see his beloved girl again in this lifeti.
Qin Sisi fell silent; Hai Cangming’s magic power was indeed strong, even Ye You couldn’t defeat him, and Zhuo Chen had even less hope.
After a while, she gently comforted: "However, if you don’t try, you will likely regret when looking back, won’t you?"
Trying doesn’t guarantee success, but not trying definitely won’t succeed, and perhaps many years later, one would despise oneself for not even trying.
Zhuo Chen thought for a mont and then laughed, saying aloud: "You’re right, I don’t want to regret, whether or not I can rescue Xuemo, I will strive to beco stronger."
Seeing Zhuo Chen’s bright smile, Qin Sisi felt sowhat relieved as well, asking Zhuo Chen: "How many checkpoints are in the Sky Scar Labyrinth."
Feeling embarrassed, Zhuo Chen replied: "I’m not sure; probably none of the creatures here know. I participated once ten years ago and was eliminated at the second checkpoint. After ten years of effort, I finally reached the fifth checkpoint this year. I heard from the Sea King that his best result was clearing ten checkpoints consecutively and then obtaining so magic heritage, but he didn’t get teleported out afterward and instead entered the eleventh checkpoint, which significantly increased in difficulty, and he couldn’t get through it. It’s unknown how many checkpoints are beyond that or if another magic heritage will appear."
This answer surprised Qin Sisi, realizing that the Sky Scar Labyrinth was not a fixed challenge but one that increases in difficulty according to the challenger’s power, offering magic heritage rewards at certain checkpoints.
The difficulty keeps increasing, with no strongest, only stronger.
The Sea King had once crossed the tenth checkpoint, and she wondered how many checkpoints Ye You could clear?
"Are the checkpoints the sa this year as they were ten years ago?" After thinking, Qin Sisi asked another question.
If the checkpoints were the sa each ti, then the rewards ought to be the sa, which would be sowhat monotonous.
Zhuo Chen replied: "No, I heard from the elders that each ti is different, so the rewards are also different."
Qin Sisi nodded; that’s precisely the strength a high-level secret realm should possess.
Through the conversation with Zhuo Chen, Qin Sisi found that although she only cleared four checkpoints, her level was comparatively higher than most other creatures participating in the trial, as the first two checkpoints could eliminate most of them.
They waited at the original place for a long ti, with no other people around, only the silent flow of seawater, and unknown small fish swimming back and forth through the gaps in the seaweed.
Qin Sisi couldn’t help but feel anxious; why hadn’t Ye You co out? Had sothing happened?
But then reconsidering, she realized it might be a good thing. Since Ye You hadn’t erged, it ant he was still challenging checkpoints, and the more checkpoints he cleared, the more rewards he would obtain.
If he could get the magic heritage, Ye You’s strength might even progress further.
They waited until the next day when a wave of magic surged through the seawater.
Qin Sisi suddenly raised her head, promptly stood up, and nervously looked around. At last, Ye You’s silhouette appeared in the water.
