Chapter 164: Chapter 164 Trial and Stones
Pointing at the handsome boy in red dress with red lines in his hair, Huang Wei introduced him: "That guy is Huo Wang, the son of Fire Sparrow Lord; his father is a true immortal; he is a rich guy like me with a lot of means beside his personal strength; avoid this guy's edge after you encounter him."
"Another female from the human immortal tribe; her name is Mu Ling; she is also famous for her beauty, and rumors say she is the practitioner of special physical arts." Huang Wei pointed at the candidates one by one and introduced them, while Lin Lee observed them one by one.
'Finally someone from the human tribe; I thought everyone here would be from beast races,' Lin Lee thought, and then glanced at the beautiful female with a tight dress.
'It seems females here are more developed than lower worlds,' Lin Lee thought to himself, looking at her S-shaped figure, then he started observing other candidates according to his judgment.
…
"It seems the candidates gathered; there are a lot of them in this trial." Instantly a voice sounded, and a few figures appeared in the void, standing on a floating cloud.
Lin Lee and other candidates raised their heads looking at them. There are old, young male and female figures with majestic immortal mana fluctuation around their bodies.
'They are definitely the true immortals class, because the sects they represent are top sects in the first heaven.' Lin Lee thought to himself, feeling the heavy suppression around these figures spreading in the surrounding area.
"We shouldn't waste the precious time of the candidates and start the trial." A female among them spoke, looking at the candidates expressionlessly.
The candidates below were startled, and then some started whispering amongst themselves,
"Silence, listen to the trial rules." Instantly a sound impacted everyone's mind; all of them fell silent. A young figure flew forward and started announcing the rules of the trial.
"The great yellow forest in front of you is the trial ground; attacking and killing other candidates is allowed in this trial because of too many candidates; your main task is to find the precious stones hidden by us in the territory of Great Monsters." The young man announced the rules calmly and then added, "Keep in mind there are only twelve stones."
All candidates faces changed looking at each other alertly; slowly, hostility and a bloodthirsty aura spread around, and the atmosphere suddenly changed.
The figure standing far away in the void nodded. "Even the quality of candidates this year is high along with the quantity." One of them commented,
"With the increasing breeding rate of these useless races, our work is also increasing; that's why we have increased the quota from eight to twelve." Another figure commented with a dual voice, neither male nor female.
"Thousands of candidates and only twelve will pass the trial; also this year killing and attacking is also allowed; the trial is cruel as always; anyway, be careful, Lee; everyone will be sent to the random location." Huang Wei spoke with a smile, looking at the Lin Lee standing beside him.
Lin Lee nodded, glanced in the direction of the figures and candidates, then looked at the forest deeply.
'You should be careful, not me.' He thought to himself, instantly raising his brow, seeing a formation lit up under everyone's feet, and one by one circles appeared under every candidate's feet.
Colorful lights flashed, covering every candidate, and everyone disappeared one by one.
…
Somewhere inside the great yellow forest,
A blue color flashed, and a Lin Lee figure was revealed from inside.
"The space travel in the upper realms is really uncomfortable; a lot of weak candidates must have been seriously injured just because of this space transfer," Lin Lee muttered, looking at the small cuts on his whole body; they are healing and disappearing.
'Well, where did they send me?' He thought and then glanced at the tall trees around.
Pssch!
Instantly his face changed. Hearing a sound of spray, Lin Lee jumped and dodged. An unpleasant smell spread around with the ground he was standing upon melted and transformed into a purple liquid.
'Poison and corrosion,' Lin Lee thought, turning and glanced at the invisible long snake coiling around the tree, aiming at him again.
Pssch!!
Instantly, an invisible mana shot from its mouth. Lin Lee raised his brow. Instantly, nanobots squirmed into the shield in front of him.
Sizzling!!!
Instantly, Lin Lee's eyes widened in surprise. He jumped away, looking at his nanobot's sheild being corroded and transformed into purple corrosive liquid, and started falling below like drops. Slowly, the whole sheild melted away.
'It seems I can't be careless in upper realms; the phenomenon in lower worlds can be explained according to science, but here everything is opposite to my point of view,' Lin Lee thought, looking at the nanobot particles. Even atoms are transformed into poison and corrosive particles on the ground.
Pssch!!!
Bang!!!
Instantly, a nozzle appeared beside Lin Lee and shot the dark bullets, which expanded into a wide plate and stopped the poison shot of the invisible snake monster.
Swish!!!
Pssch! Pssch!! Pssch!!!
Lin Lee ran in a circle around the snake while avoiding the poison shots. After completing a circle, instantly long rods ejected out from the ground, and extremely thin wires pierced out from these rods toward the invisible snake monster.
In just a moment, hundreds of thin wires passed above the snake monster without touching him and were inserted into other rods.
Lin Lee glanced at the snake and backed away, dodging the poison shot.
"Well, cut this poison bastard into pieces."
Lin Lee muttered instantly as the wire tightened and a net produced above the snake body.
Cling!!!
The net then pierced through the snake body like a bullet and stopped a few inches above the ground surface.
Lin Lee glanced at the smoking net, and it was transforming into purple poison liquid.
Thud! Thud!! Thud!!!
"I knew your body would also be corrosive; I had to cut through your body before my nanobots melted away. The thinner the object, the sharper it is. Although you can melt my nanobots, it takes time. I have to use that time to my advantage." Lin Lee muttered, walked, and appeared near a white snake with a purple pattern. It's body is sectioned into hundreds of pieces.
He then ordered his nanobots to devour it and optimize themselves.
After a while, looking at the nanobots, upon touching the snake's blood transform into purple corrosive liquid, he raised his brow.
'It seems this is definitely one of the top poison species in the upper realms; I have to ask Huang Wei later.' Lin Lee thought and then let Nanobot stop devouring because it's useless; his nanobot's toughness is not enough; probably at True Immortal class they would be able to devour this kind of species.
"First time I have encountered the resistance, I have to do something about it," Lin Lee muttered and then glanced at the hidden entrance behind the snake body; he noticed it just now after coming near the monster.
"It seems it was a great monster; I am lucky." Lin Lee muttered with a smile and then walked toward the cave entrance.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the forest,
Bang! Bang!! Bang!!!
"Damn, how can they put a great golden rhinoceros monster in the trial?" Huang Wei cursed, looking at the huge, hilly monster with two golden shining horns.
"Hufffff." The rhinoceros emitted smoke from his nostrils and ran toward the Huang Wei; his body shone with golden light and speed up.
"Ahhh, damn this guy can speed up with such a huge body," Huang Wei shouted, turned around, and ran away with faster speed than rhinoceros.
…
Outside the forest, the six figures were sitting cross-legged on the white cloud; one of their brows shook, "One great monster is defeated."
"Indeed, this guy is good, but I can't find any background information about him, and his talent is hidden; I can't observe it." One of the young female figures spoke, her brow furrowed tightly.
"Don't worry, this little guy is interesting; he is from the human race." One of the old figures spoke with a smile.
Others fell silent and started observing other candidates one by one; some died after encountering poisonous and dangerous monsters; some were already seriously injured when teleporting, as Lin Lee guessed.
Some helpless candidates were attacked by a dangerous great monster and were eaten alive.
…
Inside the white snake cave, Lin Lee glanced at the huge pond filled with purple liquid and a purple stone floating in the middle of the pond, shining and emitting supple fluctuation.
"Leave this stone alone; I will spare your life; it belongs to me now." A soft female voice spread into the cave, with a hint of threat and dominance.
Lin Lee raised his brow, turned around, and glanced at the beautiful female with jade green hair and a light green short skirt, looking at him expressionlessly while walking inside through the entrance.
'I didn't expect I would encounter her, Ling Long, from the Jade Dragon Race.' Lin Lee thought; his expression became a little playful.
