Chapter 558: Chapter 320: Annihilation! The Tenth Layer Trial of the Heavenly Serpent Divine (Additional Chapters 34, 35)_3
“`
“They sure are good at calculating,” Bai Shan Demigod shook his head and said, “Seeing no hope, they want to switch to better terms.”
“I think we should agree to their terms for now, to ease the tension,”
“These Flying Heaven Beast Kings want ti, and we need ti as well,” Bai Shan Demigod said, “Now that Yu Jinghe and Li Yuan are not around, we should avoid a large-scale conflict with these Flying Heaven Beast Kings.”
“Hmm,” Fang Hai nodded.
He seed to be pondering other matters.
“Do you think all this is Li Yuan’s doing?” Bai Shan Demigod suddenly asked.
“It’s highly likely,”
“Rolbis and his group, they might not have been killed by Li Yuan,” Fang Hai said, “But Thousand Eyes Beast Emperor… They’ve delved deep into that Divine Land many tis, apart from Li Yuan, I can’t think of anyone else who could have killed them.”
“If this speculation is true,” Bai Shan Demigod sighed, “even the Beast Emperor died at Li Yuan’s hands, the strength he previously revealed… It’s probably not all he’s got.”
“Hmm,” Fang Hai’s eyes shimred with anticipation, “Perhaps, he can bring us more surprises.”
“That is, if he can return safely,” Bai Shan Demigod uttered with a light sigh, “now, I’m sowhat worried about his safety.”
…
In Mingxu Star Realm, inside the Mothership, Alien God Zone.
Three days after killing Rolbis and his group, on October 12th.
Phew!
Li Yuan stood up from ditating and glanced at the three remaining stone walls: “Although there has been progress, continuing to practice here, I won’t make any significant breakthroughs anyti soon.”
It’s ti to go in.
Phew!
With a move of his figure, Li Yuan had already flown into the dark passage behind the nine stone walls.
No sooner had he stepped into the range of the passage, Li Yuan felt a wave of invisible fluctuations sweeping over him, but he did not resist… This test area was left behind by the collaboration of the Six Great Alien Gods and the Heavenly Serpent Divine.
All around was darkness.
Li Yuan felt an invisible force enveloping him, drifting with the current, and soon he saw a beam of light… and plumted down to the ground.
This was a much more expansive hall.
“A passage?” Li Yuan looked around to see a gateway emitting a green glow behind him.
Beyond this green-lit gateway, there were five more entrances in the vicinity.
“Just as Liang Qi said, the six Alien God test passageways actually lead to the sa test area,” Li Yuan thought to himself, “It’s just that the Mark is different on everyone.”
On the surface of Li Yuan’s body, an invisible force was at work, emitting a hazy layer of green light.
This signified that he was here to inherit the ‘Wind System Alien God’ legacy.
Hum~
A large amount of light converged in the void, coalescing into a solitary figure with a bulky stature and a single horn; his gaze fell on Li Yuan, carrying a hint of a smile: “Spirit Gun, we et again.”
“Elder Qiu,” Li Yuan said respectfully.
“Since you’ve co to receive the inheritance, then let’s do everything by the rules,” Qiu Bingzun said, “You are here to take the Wind System Alien God test, the first task is to imprint the mysterious fluctuations you’ve perceived from the previous nine stone walls… It doesn’t have to be exact, as long as you achieve the sa level of mystery in your fluctuations.”
Phew!
With a wave of Qiu Bingzun’s hand, nine enormous stones flew over from not too far away, made of the sa material as the outer walls.
“Understood,” Li Yuan nodded, knowing this was a test of his technical skills.
In fact, Qiu Bingzun should be aware of his own strength… But he seems to be a ‘Boundary Spirit’ similar to that of a World within Worlds, and all his actions must follow the commands of the Alien Gods.
Phew!
The mont Li Yuan’s thoughts moved, he had already drawn upon the power of heaven and earth, swiftly leaving Marks on the stone walls.
The first six stone walls he imprinted were complete.
The seventh stone wall was sowhat incomplete.
“Elder, is this sufficient?” Li Yuan looked to the bulky, one-horned figure.
“It is sufficient,” Qiu Bingzun said, “You are a Second Rank Life, by the Six Great Alien Gods’ instructions, understanding three stone walls gives you the opportunity to beco a nad disciple.”
“You’ve perceived six stone walls… There is hope for you to beco a Direct Disciple.”
“However, you should be very clear that while the growth of a powerful being depends on the insight into skills, that is only one aspect. What truly represents everything is real strength,” Qiu Bingzun continued, “Star ridians, Star Techniques, combat awareness, weapons, and many other aspects together constitute a strong being.”
Li Yuan couldn’t help but nod, listening intently.
“Therefore,”
“Back then, the Heavenly Serpent Divine and the Six Great Alien Gods jointly designed ten layers of tests, aid to assess the true strength of each inheritor,”
“`
“Depending on the Life Level and age, the difficulty of trials will vary,” said Elder Qiu. “If you can pass the Third Layer of tests, you can beco a registered disciple.”
“If you can pass the Sixth Layer, you can beco an Inner Sect Disciple, a Direct Disciple, and qualify to enter the Inner Layer.”
“What if one breaks through the Ninth or Tenth Layer?” Li Yuan asked curiously.
Having laid out ten layers of tests, passing the Sixth Layer offered hope to enter the Inner Layer.
What were the last few layers for?
“If you only pass the Sixth Layer, even if you receive the Alien God Heritage, you must still overco several tough challenges in the Inner Layer before you have a chance to enter the core of the Inner Layer and co into contact with what the Heaven Snake Divine left behind,” Elder Qiu looked at Li Yuan, his eyes showing so expectation: “However, if you can break through the Tenth Layer directly… then you will have imdiate access to the core of the Inner Layer.”
“Yet so far, no one has managed to do so.”
Li Yuan’s eyes lit up.
Direct entry to the core of the Inner Layer?
According to Elder Qiu, Xue Yan and Myriad Scales Beast Emperor, although already in the Inner Layer, probably had not reached the core area yet.
“Good!”
“I’ll say no more. As soon as you enter the center of the hall, the trial will begin,” Elder Qiu pointed to the colossal circular arena over ten kiloters in diater in the distance: “Rember, during this inheritance trial, you are not allowed to use your own weapons… You must use the standard-issue weapons.”
Rustle~
With another wave of his hand, Elder Qiu caused the ground next to Li Yuan to suddenly split open, revealing a giant cavern from which hundreds of weapons flew out.
Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, shields, hamrs, and other weapons were all available, along with battle garnts.
“You may freely choose any weapon; they’re all Third Rank weapons,” Elder Qiu said: “You can even take several weapons with you and store them in your Storage Magical Treasure, up to a hundred pieces at most.”
“Yes!” Li Yuan nodded.
Whoosh! With a flick of his hand, Li Yuan quickly collected a massive number of weapons from the void, a full hundred pieces.
“Really taking that many?” Elder Qiu paused.
“For backup,” Li Yuan said with a smile, having his own calculations. If he didn’t reclaim these weapons… then just the hundred Third Rank weapons alone would be worth tens of thousands of Seven Stars Points.
Not a small amount.
“Elder Qiu, can this trial only be taken once?” Li Yuan inquired.
“No!”
“Everyone has three chances in their lifeti,” Elder Qiu shook his head: “However, as you grow older, when you co again, the difficulty of the trials will also increase… So whether you attempt it once or three tis, the difference won’t be too significant.”
“This trial is essentially a test of potential.”
“Understood,” Li Yuan nodded and thought to himself: “Age? I’m only just over 20 years old and only at Second Rank Life… The level of difficulty shouldn’t be too high.”
“I hope to break through the Tenth Layer of the trial in one battle,” Li Yuan had made up his mind to attempt it.
The longer the night, the more dreams occur; best to strive for a one-ti entry into the core of the Inner Layer.
Of course, Li Yuan also knew very well that his Star Technique was among the strongest of the many Pri Warriors and even Gu You had said it was the ‘ultimate Pri Warrior’… but his strength was not yet at the limit of a Pri Warrior.
For there was still room for improvent in his understanding of the Way.
“However, the Heaven Snake Divine probably isn’t one of the top-tier divine beings in the vast universe,” Li Yuan thought to himself: “The Ten Layers of tests he created probably aren’t aid at the ultimate strength of a Pri Warrior either.”
Having everything figured out.
Whoosh!
Li Yuan had taken possession of a long spear and battle garnt, donned them, and leaped onto the central arena of the hall.
As soon as he entered.
“The trial officially begins,” Elder Qiu’s voice rang in Li Yuan’s mind again: “Rember, the mont you fly out of the arena, the trial is deed over.”
“If you can’t bear it, then shout your surrender, and the trial will also end.”
“Rember, each Layer of the trial has a ti limit. Kill your opponents quickly; otherwise, as the number of warriors increases, the pressure will grow.”
Before he could finish.
Hum~ Hum~ Hum~ The ground on all four sides of the arena had silver liquid rising, quickly forming the figures of Silver Armored Warriors.
These Silver Armored Warriors, filled with a murderous gaze, looked towards the center where Li Yuan stood, wielding various weapons such as long spears and large hamrs, emanating strong auras.
In the blink of an eye, the area around the edge of the arena had already ford over a hundred Silver Armored Warriors.
“Liquid robots?”
“Puppets?” In an instant, Li Yuan was reminded of the Hundred Battles Arena in the Ancient Divine Palace… The opponents he selected were ford of similar golden liquid.
Clearly, those powerful divine beings favored such thods to train their junior disciples.
When the number of Silver Armored figures reached three hundred.
“Boom!”
“Boom!” The weapon-wielding Silver Armored Warriors quickly transford into streaks of light, roaring as they swooped down on Li Yuan.
