“Level sixty-five, survive assault from five hundred Perfection state Core Formation Realm puppets with peak foundations” the sound of a mechanical voice resounded as a young man cleaves a figure of a bear-like ferocious beast into two, the carcass falling into the ground as rounds of new opponents arrives, this one a hundred more than the previous wave.
Staring at the puppets in front of him, it is only now that Wu Xiaotian noticed that all of them are completely different from the previous puppets already, with their entire body being completely clean and intact, as if they’re still living if not for the fact that their eyes hold no light, displaying their nature as the puppet they are.
Plunging into the midst of the battle again, he brandishes his weapon, constantly transforming from one thing to another, accommodating the battle techniques he’s performing.
This time transforming into a spear, he stepped forward, the ground cracking a bit due to the force from his foot as he thrust the spear towards one humanoid puppet, piercing its skull completely, before swinging the spear once again shattering the figure’s head, along with some other opponents that was passed by the spear’s crescent arc.
Smiling as he felt some of the enemies stepping away from him, as if to make him follow them, the weapon in Wu Xiaotian’s hand transforms once again, morphing into a bloodied scythe before swinging it again, severing the unlucky figures that was caught in its way in two.
As he continues whittling the puppets down, he starts to feel some fatigue already, but the feeling of warmth across all his body as sweat trickled down his skin makes him all the more energetic in combat, as if a machine running at its peak after some warming up.
After finishing this level, he started incorporating more and more of his power as he battles against countless numbers of enemies that even if someone were to get the same strength as him, wouldn’t even imagine challenging, nor winning.
Fighting against six hundred puppets standing in the genius level with their peak foundation, not to mention all of them being at the Perfection state of Core Formation, it will certainly make one terrified, as even an Early state Nascent Source Realm cultivator might find it difficult to fight with such mob.
However, Wu Xiaotian, despite his body starting to tire out, handles them with relative ease, his movements unhindered as his weapon of choice slips through the flesh of the figures, claiming at least one life from every attack he does.
After finishing a few more levels, he eventually reached the seventieth, trying to rest as much as he can before fighting with thousands of enemies about the same level of strength as him. As the enemies emerge, he finally let the last restriction of his strength go, freeing his soul power to wreak havoc on the battlefield.
“That’s enough for the training, now to clear these things out” raising his hands, the soul power starts converging on multiple spots, his Transcendent Qi coming out as if to imbue the spots covered by his soul power with even more strength, the soul power then transforming into a more object-like shape.
Dozens of intangible swords, all coated with the Primordial Nihility Transcendent Qi, descends to the battle, mowing numbers of puppets down as they cut through them. Waving his hands, the swords then instantaneously transformed into spears, piercing though the massive numbers of humanoid figures approaching him.
Before the figures even arrive within ten meters of him, it is already thinned down by the hundreds, only a bit more than half remaining.
Preparing for another vicious melee, Wu Xiaotian decided to detonate the soul weapons, the combination of his soul power and the Primordial Nihility Transcendent Qi surrounding them causing a massive explosion that completely devours everything in its path, taking down another couple of hundreds along with them.
Wielding the Myriad Transformation Orb again, the weapon transforms into a thin curved blade, it’s sharp edge seemingly threatening to cut through space. Exhaling as if to calm his nerves, he moved the blade to his side, the space near the blade seemingly twisting and turning, this sight extending for up to a hundred meters from the tip of the blade.
Feeling something already completely prepared, Wu Xiaotian looks towards the approaching legion of puppets as he moves his arms as if his drawing the blade from a sheathe before uttering one word.
“Rend”
Slashing horizontally, the space was cut into two, the movement of his blade leaving behind an invisible tear in space that devours everything that comes in contact with it, separating the upper body of all the puppets approaching him from their lower body. freewebnvel.coɱ
“That does it…” as the final figure fell, Wu Xiaotian starts sheathing his blade again but was surprised as the mechanical voiced sounded again.
“Congratulations on clearing the first test, calculating completion rate…. Levels passed: 70/10… completion rating: 700%… Rewards: a bottle of mortal grade Greater Qi Absorption Pill, Void-born Flower, Sky-piercing Lance, a dozen of celestial origin seeds, and a World Tree Seed”
“It is confirmed that the participant managed to break past the intended limit of the first part of the test, earned the rights to enter in a special part for the first test”
Hearing all the rewards, Wu Xiaotian’s immediate thought is to celebrate as they sound like a very expensive ones, even for the system’s standard, however, before he even managed to search for the value of the objects now in his hands in the system, the additional announcement surprises him, even more so than when he found out that there’s supposed to be only ten levels in the first test.
“What’s the special part and what are the benefits of taking it?” Wu Xiaotian asked, clearly knowing that the mechanical voice has the capability to answer his question.
“Special level one, survive assault from one Early state Nascent Source Realm puppet with peak foundation, rewards, another dozen of celestial origin seeds every level finished, as well as a True Spirit Fruit for every two levels finished” hearing the reply of the mechanical voice, Wu Xiaotian couldn’t help but shake his head as he thought that the creator of this trials have no sense of variety at all as he decided in his mind that he will participate in the special part of the first test so long as the voice answered the next question to his favor.
“Can I take a rest before taking the special test?” looking around as if to find out where the source of the voice is.
“The participant can take up to one hour of rest before entering the special test, with each level proceeding thirty minutes after the participant finished the previous level” with the mechanical voice’s reply, Wu Xiaotian completely decided on participating with the special test, asking the mechanical voice to let him rest for as much as he can before he participates in the special test.
While resting and trying to recover as much as he can, he starts scrolling in the shop, instead of focusing on his recovery as his body already passively does in an extremely fast way, and focusing on controlling his body to recover might only slow down the process.
Staring at the objects displayed in multiple windows of the semi-transparent golden screen, Wu Xiaotian couldn’t help but get surprised as he looks at each of the object’s description.
“This is crazy…” he thought to himself before smiling like a madman, looking at the rewards he got from the first test while thinking that he got quite the jackpot for himself.
