Chapter 123 The Cruelty of the Trial
Chapter 123 The Cruelty of the Trial
"As is customary..."
The founder of the giant axe continued speaking.
Among these cosmic lords, the happiest was the Lord of Purgatory, whose smile never stopped.
"Next is the Trial Tower," said the founder of the Giant Axe. "Who could have imagined that after billions of years of silence, it would suddenly cause a sensation in the cosmic sea today?"
"Lu Xing, how is your trial going?"
"I need to solve at least 4000 games within 30,000 years. Now that half the time has passed, I have solved 2800 games. I believe it will not be difficult to pass this trial in the end," Lu Xing said.
But his goal wasn't just to reach Grade B; he wanted to solve 6000 trials to advance to Grade A, though his hopes were slim.
"We have plenty of time," said the founder of the Giant Axe.
"chaos."
His gaze turned to the Chaos City Lord beside him, since he was currently outside the Trial Tower.
"Although we have tried before, under the watchful eyes of the major powers, our human race cannot afford not to go," said the founder of the giant axe. "The trials are not interconnected; they will need to pass at least the elementary trial before they can see the virtual consciousness of that ancient civilization."
"Hahahaha," the Chaos City Lord laughed, "There's nothing to do lately, so staying inside for thousands of epochs won't be a problem."
"Um."
Black-veined stone pillars...
"The 'Fundamentals of Body Control' is a prerequisite technique for the 'Nine Refinements of Blood Sand,' how could it be easy?" Lu Xing smiled slightly as he stood up. They simply couldn't master it; no amount of time would change that. "Your willpower has improved considerably; you can delve even deeper!"
With a "whoosh," the figure landed on a nearby rock.
"6000 times the flow rate," Lu Xing muttered to himself, then sat down cross-legged again.
"This Lord of Wasteland is progressing so quickly!"
A cosmic master not far away exclaimed in amazement that there were very few of these positions left, and each one was a top-tier existence.
They witnessed firsthand how, in just 5000 years, the Earth's flow rate had increased from 2500 times to 6000 times—the progress was terrifying.
"I never expected this guy's willpower to be so high. The human race is truly a lucky race. Although there is only one true god, Giant Axe, they possess three supreme treasures!" the Universe Lord beside him replied.
Three items!
"That's right," he continued. "When this era of reincarnation ends, the human race will surely become a dominant force in the cosmic sea."
"Um."
Humans are a species that emerges in every cycle of reincarnation, but whether they are powerful is another matter.
Like these three cycles of reincarnation.
Only the first and third cycles of humanity belonged to the pinnacle of the races; the second cycle of humanity had only one strongest being in the universe.
But this already speaks volumes. Every cycle of life gives birth to hundreds of millions of beings of various kinds, yet the human race has never been weak.
Meanwhile, undercurrents surged in the cosmic sea as a large number of cosmic lords rushed to the Trial Tower.
"Difference!"
"It's terrible!"
In the testing and training plaza, Blood Origin Sand Saint looked at the group of universe lords who couldn't even comprehend the "Basic Body Control Techniques".
Unless he wants to, the true god cannot see him.
As time goes by, with a large enough pool of participants, some geniuses will inevitably emerge.
Another 5000 years later.
"I've got it!"
A figure suddenly soared into the air; it was none other than the Lord of Jueyun, who had entered first. "Ten thousand years! I never imagined that a mere amplification technique would take me ten thousand years!"
He couldn't do anything about the emergence of the Trial Tower, but it still gained the upper hand in the end.
"Trial participant - Jueyun, would you like to begin the final test?" A mechanical voice rang out, and every universe lord cast envious and jealous glances at them.
"Hahahaha, of course," the Lord of Jueyun laughed.
His figure disappeared, and he headed to another deserted square.
"The lowest grade." The Lord of Chaos City laughed. "The Lord of Jueyun is a fifth-order expert. Even a lowest-grade test is not easy. You might perish if you are careless."
The Lord of Jueyun has no clones; once he dies, he is utterly destroyed.
Meanwhile, Lu Xing...
The consciousness injected the miniature 3D image into the crystal pillar, and a beam of light shone forth.
"There are still 10,000 years left. If I want to advance to the first-class trial, I still need to solve 2400 more cases, unless my will can break through to the level of a true god!" Lu Xing said silently.
The human form of the Black-Veined Stone Pillar has reached a position with a time flow rate of 9999 times.
Ten thousand times is a threshold, representing the will of the true god. Only a handful of universe lords have reached this level, as seen in the No. 2 black-patterned stone pillar.
"What kind of inheritance will I receive if I only complete the second-level trial?" Lu Xing looked at Blood Origin Sand Saint in mid-air.
"Level B means you are qualified to be 'sainted'."
"Grade A means you can become one of the top figures in the Sand Kingdom, and there aren't many like that even in my hometown."
"Shadow... since the establishment of our Sand Kingdom, there has only been one, and that is the great Sand King," Blood Plains Sand Saint said slowly.
"At the third level of the God King realm, Sand King was probably a bit stronger than Sitting Mountain Guest. I never expected him to perish completely," Lu Xing thought to himself.
"No, they might not necessarily perish!"
There aren't many God-Kings in the Jin Kingdom, and the Mountain-Sitting Guest was able to reincarnate despite being surrounded and killed by three God-Kings, so the probability of the Sand King completely perishing is really not high.
"The qualifications for being conferred a 'saint' are quite good in my hometown; I would be valued in any nation I join," explained Blood Primordial Sand Saint.
"certainly."
"If you want to receive the complete inheritance, you need to be promoted to at least Grade A. This is a condition set by His Majesty the Sand King, and I have no right to change it."
"Are there more trials ahead?" Lu Xing asked.
"Yes." Blood Primordial Sand Saint nodded. "The Rhinoceros Emperor Bureau is just a small thing. Apart from the 'Nine Refinements of Blood Sand,' you haven't truly received the inheritance yet."
"What is it?" Lu Xing blurted out.
Blood Primordial Sand Saint simply smiled and did not answer, clearly not intending to reveal anything.
"Keep solving the puzzle; you still have a chance to advance to the first-class trial."
Lu Xing nodded and began solving game number 3601.
……
"Bang!"
A puppet suddenly slammed into the Lord of Jueyun.
"Damn it, why are there so many restrictions!" The divine body of the Lord of Jueyun weakened once again.
"Bang!" "Bang!"... The Iron Sand Puppet attacked again and again, still using the Lord of Absolute Cloud's own secret technique.
Both are imitations, but the Iron Sand Golem is not as fast as the Copper Sand Golem, but the limitations are the same: except for weapons and treasures, using anything else will result in death.
"I'm quitting!"
Lord Jueyun roared, "If this continues, I will perish!"
"Once the trial begins, it cannot be interrupted. Success... or death!" the voice announced.
He's just the master of the universe, not even cannon fodder!
"No!" Lord Jueyun gritted his teeth, "The White Jade Palace!"
"boom!"
Iron sand golems bombarded the white jade palace.
"Trial participants, please do not use palace treasures." The voice carried a strong warning.
"Using it means death, not using it means death!" A deep despair appeared on the face of the Lord of Jueyun, but Baiyu Palace did not withdraw it. His plan was to use it!
"Warning ineffective!"
"Buzz~"
A soul attack swept across, and the Lord of Jueyun instantly perished; even the most precious soul treasure could not withstand it for a moment.
