1089: Chapter 283_2 1089: Chapter 283_2 “Dong…”
With the second toll of the bell, Xiang Ziyu also released the Record of Deities and Demons.
Black and white shadows enveloped him, spinning continuously, causing the surroundings to gently quake.
Soon, the third bell rang.
The trial began!
In an instant, numerous figures shot out, but at the next moment, various Divine Skills burst forth from the Void, bombarding those who had just taken flight.
Although the Cloud Reaching Sect had said they didn’t want to see anyone die, with everyone unleashing Divine Skills amid such chaos, who could tell who killed whom if someone died?
But for those who thought they could rush straight through, they were certainly mistaken.
All who flew at the forefront became targets, bombarded by relentless Divine Skills.
Xiang Ziyu, after the initial round of Divine Skills passed, saw more figures take to the air, and he too abruptly shot forth.
He had barely taken flight when from the Void, a blue bolt of thunder plummeted down.
The thunder was vast, filled with unprecedented might, seemingly intent on destroying the entire valley.
Xiang Ziyu had witnessed numerous Thunderbolt Proficiencies before, and although the one before him did not match the Five-thunder Righteous Method taught by his master, it felt stronger than many others he had encountered.
He watched the Divine Skill falling, abruptly dodging to one side.
Almost the moment he dodged, the deep blue thunder smashed into where he had just been.
The ground split open under the strike, and countless chunks of earth were blasted into the sky from the terrifying force.
No sooner had Xiang Ziyu dodged the thunder than sharp Wind Blades, seeming capable of slicing off a mountain peak, appeared before his eyes.
In the nick of time, he shifted again, the Wind Blades narrowly missing him, their light grazing past the luminescence of the Record of Deities and Demons.
Had it been before, he might have been able to dodge the first bolt of thunder, but the second Wind Blade would have inevitably struck him.
Yet, the mysterious Eight Nine Mysterious Art his master had imparted was truly miraculous.
With the improvement in bodily strength from cultivating the Eight-Nine Technique, not only was his body more resilient, his strength was greater, and his speed much more swift.
Yet as he evaded the second attack, the third assault descended, leaving him with nowhere to hide.
The attacks nearly filled the entire space, and he found no room to escape.
A bone-chilling cold instantaneously ensued, but as soon as it touched the luminescence around him from the Record of Deities and Demons, it whirled away and dissipated in an instant.
Taking advantage of this, Xiang Ziyu burst forth.
“That kid, what incredible speed!”
“Stop him!”
“Hurry and block him!”
Voices trailed from behind, as more Divine Skills were hurled at Xiang Ziyu.
Yet he did not hesitate, simply using the Record of Deities and Demons to fend off the onslaught while he pushed forward with all his might.
Although there was a distance to Gao Shan from the valley, his full-speed sprint took him to the mountain in an instant, yet in that short time, the Record of Deities and Demons behind him had completely shattered, and even his clothes were torn.
“It really is special treatment for the protagonist.
Among so many people, I appeared to be a Nine Abnormal Phenomena Golden Pill user, yet I faced so many attacks.
But still, I was the first to push through.”
Xiang Ziyu paid no attention to what was behind him but instead focused on what lay ahead.
In front of him were ten paths, shrouded in mist, their destinations unclear.
As he observed his surroundings, another had already reached the mountain behind him, a Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection being.
Without pause, the figure plunged into one of the ten paths.
Soon after, a third person arrived, another Ten Different Phenomena Great Perfection, who likewise hesitated not at all before choosing another path.
Xiang Ziyu realized immediately, so only the first ten were chosen because there were only ten paths to take.
Once one person entered a path, it was no longer available to others!
Without hesitation, he chose one of the paths.
In an instant, he was enshrouded in mist.
Though surrounded by clouds, he realized he was not on solid ground but rather a narrow wooden bridge.
As he traversed the bridge, the mist ahead of him grew dimmer.
Gradually, the surrounding mist dissipated entirely, and as he descended from the bridge, it felt as if he had entered another world.
The world before him was lush and verdant, and slowly, a figure emerged—it was a shadow that looked almost exactly like him.
Xiang Ziyu was completely stunned.
What was this situation?
He had never been to the Eastern Province before, so how could there be someone who looked just like him?
Moreover, the person’s aura seemed incredibly similar to his own.
Although it wasn’t a perfect fusion, it was about ninety percent similar.
Even more astonishing was that behind the figure was a huge, perfect Pill Fusion of a Ten Miracles Golden Pill.
And the aura radiating from the other was that of the apex of Golden Core.
