Chapter 162 Terrifying Trial

“Devil Demons!”

This unfamiliar term was something Long Chen had never heard of . But he could clearly sense the extremely ancient devilish aura coming from those caves .

The majority of the crowd had also never heard of that term . From their blank expressions, he could tell this was a kind of secret .

But when he looked at Tang Wan-er, he saw her expression hadn’t changed . It seemed she had long since known what a ‘Devil Demon’ was .

“The Devil Demons I speak of aren’t what you imagine . They are not the goblins and ghosts from your childhood myths and stories . They are Devil Demon Cultivators .

“And this trial will be to defeat those cultivators . Chop off their heads and you will pa.s.s,” explained Tu Fang .

Everyone let out startled cries as they all looked towards the stone wall .

“Yes . Each of those caves contains a Devil Demon Cultivator . We have called them Devil Cultivators .

“Their cultivation methods are completely different from ours . They are extremely sinister and ruthless . They are even more berserk than Magical Beasts . You can still choose to give up now, so think about it carefully,” said Tu Fang .

The entire crowd was silent . Currently there were only just over a thousand of them that had made it to this point . But what Elder Tu Fang was talking about was too shocking . Their hearts pounded nervously .

“What kind of joke is this? Let them come! We’re all geniuses; do you think we’ll be scared away by just words? Hmph, if the rest of you don’t dare, then let me, Li Changfeng, take the lead!”

One man ran out of the crowd arrogantly . Blood Qi surged from him as he held a longsword . He was an expert .

“Think about it properly . This isn’t an ordinary trial, but a life and death battle . The slightest carelessness will cause you to lose your life,” warned Tu Fang .

“Don’t worry Elder, disciple understands,” replied that person .

Tu Fang sighed somewhat helplessly . Why did every year always start with this kind of opening? Was that the will of the heavens?

“If you want to take the lead, then come . Choose a cave according to your power level . If you feel like you cannot win, you can immediately flee from the cave and save your life . ” Tu Fang gave one final warning to everyone .

Long Chen was slightly startled . Looking at the stone pillars in front of those Elders, the stone pillars were all emitting a faint light that completely lit up the entire stone wall . Did that light have some kind of use?

“Many thanks Elder for your concern . Disciple will go now . ”

That person confidently smiled and turned to glance back at everyone, sneering, “This junior is attached to Lei Qianshang . With how grand and powerful boss Lei, as boss Lei’s subordinate, I pledge my absolutely loyalty to what will be the most powerful faction!

“With honor right before me, junior won’t be courteous and take the first spot! But this glory isn’t mine, but my most respected boss Lei Qianshang’s!”

That person arrogantly laughed and ran over to the mountain cliff .

Long Chen was a bit dumbstruck . This kind of advertising was a bit much, wasn’t it? As for Lei Qianshang, he nodded appreciatively . With such an intelligent disciple beneath, what couldn’t he accomplish?

“I wonder what level he’ll choose . ”

“Looking at how boasting he was, he’ll probably choose the inner disciple level . ”

“Probably . Otherwise wouldn’t all his boasting have just been c.r.a.p? That really would be just giving himself a slap in the face . ”

Just as people were guessing he would choose an inner disciple level cave, he had already run over to the cliff . The large set of stairs was there .

When he arrived at those stairs, one of the Elders asked, “Which cave do you want to go to?”

“The one at the most right side on the lowest level . ” That person immediately replied without even thinking about it .

Displeasure rang out amongst the crowd . According to the cultivation world’s standards, the upper left side was most powerful while the lower right side was the weakest . By choosing the most right cave on the lowest level, he had chosen the absolute weakest cave .

He had acted so grandly like an expert at the beginning, but now he choose the simplest trial .

“That b.a.s.t.a.r.d is too shameless! He actually picked the most advantageous spot and didn’t even try to hide it!”

Anyone who wasn’t an idiot knew that this fellow was definitely relying on his smarts . He had made the first move in order to get an advantage .

“This fellow is so shameless; he really is just like you . Could it be that he is your long lost brother?” Tang Wan-er laughed .

Long Chen didn’t get angry, shaking his head, “I definitely don’t have such a fool brother . Looking at his face, I’m thinking he’ll soon want to repent and turn over a new leaf-”

“AHH!”

A miserable scream rang out from the cave . That person had only just entered before letting out that miserable scream, bringing with it a rain of blood that shot out of the cave .

Long Chen frowned slightly . He took a step forward, blocking Tang Wan-er’s line of sight to that cave .

The entire crowd let out startled exclamations . There were also some people who directly vomited . That person was now torn in two and completely mutilated . That scene was absolutely terrifying .

Previously he had been so lively and arrogant; now in the blink of an eye, he was a dead man . Furthermore, he had been killed with such a cruel and disgusting manner, horrifying everyone .

“Long Chen, get me see . I’ll have to face this kind of reality sooner or later, so it might as well be sooner . ” Tang Wan-er felt some warmth, knowing that Long Chen was looking after her by blocking her line of sight .
