363 Chapter 363, Limit Challenge!
“Those with less than 10,000 reward points will be eliminated! The remaining 13,220 people will be eliminated.”Yang Tian’s auxiliary device sent out a notification as soon as the first stage was over.
The next stage was the second stage.
After being teleported out of the first stage’s cave maze, Yang Tian appeared under a high stone platform like everyone else.
The stone platform looked like a large pyramid made of gray-white rocks. From the bottom to the top, there were stone steps that extended all the way to the platform at the top.
The second stage had not started yet. Many people wanted to step on the stone platform and take a look at the platform at the top, but they were blocked by an invisible force.
Yang Tian also tried, but no matter how much force he used, he could not go up.
Thus, the cultivators who ca out from the first stage could only wait quietly.
About half an hour after Yang Tian ca out, the first stage of the reward activity ended.
After the auxiliary device announced the number of people who had passed the first stage, it imdiately announced the opening of the second stage.
“Rumble...”
As soon as the notification ended, the huge ‘pyramid’in front of Yang Tian and the rest actually began to change shape. Moreover, it was rising rapidly. The ground was shaking non-stop as it emitted an intense sound of friction.
A few minutes later, the originally pyramid-shaped stone platform in front of Yang Tian and the rest had already risen to a height where no one could see the top.
That was because the top had been covered by white clouds.
The area that the stone platform occupied had doubled in size. It was originally in the shape of a pyramid, but now it had beco a cylindrical building with square holes on the surface and a small head at the bottom.
“Sir, Next, you need to climb to the top with your bare hands. The virtual world will block the energy of all the experiencers...”
Wasn’t this the Limit Challenge?
Yang Tian’s eyes widened when he heard the notification. He recalled an activity on Earth, which was rock climbing with bare hands. This was an extre challenge.
It might be more difficult to climb up this pillar-shaped building.
Because the holes on it were ssy and had no rules. So places were dense, and so places were three to four ters apart. If one was unable to use powerful strength, it would be difficult to climb up with just the strength of one’s body.
Moreover, this column-shaped building would change every once in a while. Perhaps the hole in one’s hand would disappear in the next mont. During this process, if one was unlucky, no matter how powerful one’s combat strength was, one would only be eliminated.
Although this was a virtual world, it was extrely realistic, and the feeling was exactly the sa as in the real world. Therefore, in addition to testing a cultivator’s body coordination ability, this test also tested one’s psychological quality.
This strange cylindrical building was at least several thousand ters tall. If one fell from it, the mont they fell to the ground, it would be extrely painful. This was even more painful than being killed by a strange beast, because a cultivator’s physique was strong, this fall would not cause one to lose consciousness after falling to the ground like an ordinary human..
After the auxiliary device finished explaining the second stage, hundreds of people imdiately gave up.
The number of participants remained at 12,528.
After that, every ti a person failed, the auxiliary device would give a notification.
The reward points for this stage were awarded based on the ti it took to complete it. The earlier one climbed to the top, the more reward points one would receive.
The tir began!
When the auxiliary device announced the start, more than 10,000 people rushed towards the strange man-made building with small feet and a big head.
The pits at the bottom were denser and easier to climb. The higher one climbed, the harder it was to climb. At a certain height, if one looked down, they would find that their body was floating.
Yang Tian followed the flow of people. When he rushed towards the pillar-shaped building, he realized that he could not mobilize the energy in his body. He could not even use his ntal strength.
The only thing he could rely on next was the energy of his body.
If he was in reality, he would have an advantage in this aspect if he often participated in battles, or if he liked this extre survival activity.
The rule was to use bare hands. Of course, weapons could not be used, and the armor on their bodies would disappear.
Yang Tian followed the crowd and rushed to the pillar-shaped building. He grabbed the holes on it and quickly climbed up.
At the beginning, there were many people. It was almost as if the people were next to each other. It was extrely crowded.
During this process, many people misbehaved and stepped on the heads of others to climb up. The people below would definitely not be convinced. They dragged the legs of the people above and pulled them down. Then, the two of them fell down together.
They only climbed for more than ten ters. However, the mont the two of them touched the ground, they had just gotten up and were about to continue when they turned into a red light and disappeared in a flash.
At the sa ti, everyone’s auxiliary devices would send out a notification as to how many people were left.
Was this considered elimination?
Many people were shocked when they saw this situation. Initially, they thought that they would only be eliminated if they fell to their deaths!
When such a situation appeared, everyone beca obedient and even gave in to each other.
After all, everyone wanted to climb to the top. They usually had no grudges against each other, so why would they make it difficult for others and themselves at this ti?
When he was still in high school on Earth, Yang Tian had watched the extre challenge video in the school’s reference room and knew what to do at this ti.
At this ti, he tried his best not to think about how high he had climbed and how far he was from the top. He did not look down, but instead, placed his attention on climbing.
As he continued climbing, the air flow beca faster and faster, and Yang Tian’s surroundings beca quieter and quieter.
Soon, Yang Tian climbed to a height of 1,000 ters above the ground.
From ti to ti, he could hear a miserable cry coming from below.
This was the sound that the cultivator who had accidentally fallen could not control as he fell in the air. Following that, a ‘peng’sound ca from the ground.
The sound of falling to the ground could not help but cause one’s heart to palpitate. That was too painful!
Above Yang Tian’s head, there would also be people falling from ti to ti.
At this ti, about an hour had passed since the start of this stage.
“Rumble...”
Suddenly, the pillar-shaped building that Yang Tian was climbing began to move and let out a rumbling sound.
...
There were square-shaped rocks squeezing out from the square-shaped hole that Yang Tian was climbing. Soon, they ca into contact with the fingers of his hands and were squeezing his fingers out.
“AH... ah... ah...”
The movent of the column-shaped building caused the screams that had stopped for a while to ring out again. Many people fell down.
Yang Tian ignored the screams of others. During this critical mont, he tried his best to keep his mind calm and pay attention to the changes of the stones around him.
When his fingers were about to be squeezed out and his feet were about to lose their support, Yang Tian finally saw a square stone at the side slowly pulling back.
Yang Tian seized this opportunity and stretched out his right hand. He used three fingers to hold the edge of the pit and began to move his center of gravity to the right.
However, the scamr was that during this process, the rock that was about three centiters retracting suddenly squeezed out again.
“Phew”
At this critical mont, Yang Tian let out a long breath and still shifted his center of gravity to his right hand.
Because the hole that he had clung to before was about to flatten!
