Chapter 224 (2/2)

If you accepted the challenge, you theoretically had a fifty percent of death . If you didn’t accept the challenge, you would immediately have to scram . That was also why most similar situations were to be mediated differently . With this method, the monastery would lose one disciple no matter what .

Everyone was silent . Their hearts sunk now that Wu Qi had accepted the challenge . This was an extremely unequal fight .

But it was initiated by Long Chen . Those disciples watching couldn’t help feeling dissatisfied with this, as they were all members of the new generation . Anyone in Long Chen’s position would be feeling endless humiliation .

If they were Long Chen, they would definitely have just endured it . They wouldn’t go issuing a life and death challenge against someone they clearly knew they couldn’t defeat .

This was complete folly . But this kind of foolishness was also not something that just anyone had the courage to do .

“Fine, follow me . ” Ling Yun-zi sighed and waved his hand . Their vision changed and they felt their bodies jolt, reappearing at an open s.p.a.ce in the rear mountains of the monastery .

This completely open s.p.a.ce was hundreds of miles wide . But within that wide open s.p.a.ce was an enormous iron cage with a huge monolith inside .

The monolith was completely square and hundreds of meters high . None of the disciples knew why it was locked within this iron cage .

“This is the death-deciding stage,” sighed Tu Fang . Now that the situation had developed to this point, there was no longer any retreat .

He took out a spirit stone and placed onto a stele in front of the death-deciding stage . The stele had a groove just for that spirit stone .

The stele lit up when the spirit stone was placed on it . The land began to shake intensely, giving everyone a fright .

They were awed to see that the huge monolith inside the cage was rising up . Who knew just how heavy it was for it to be able to shake this land like it was .

When it rose over thirty meters, it revealed a martial arena below it . People were startled to see a strange thing on top the martial arena . It seemed like a drawing .

“It’s two people!” exclaimed someone . The ‘drawing’ seemed to be of two people, but they had been crushed into a flat paste .

They were horrified to see these corpses . Then when they then looked at the huge monolith that was hundreds of meters thick, they immediately realized how they had died .

Suddenly, a breeze blew by, and that ‘drawing’ blew away . Due to how many years it had been, those corpses had long since turned to ashes . With just a burst of wind, the martial arena returned to its normal state .

People’s scalps turned numb . No wonder this was called the death-deciding stage .

“The death-deciding stage will only be open for two hours . If neither of you is able to kill the other in that time, the rebirth monolith will fall .

“You can all see how heavy the rebirth monolith is . If it were to fall, not even someone at the Elder level would be able to survive . Do your best to kill your opponent before the time is up, or you’ll end up like the last two,” solemnly warned Tu Fang .

An iron gate opened onto the arena . This small opening of the huge iron cage looked just like the mouth of a savage beast .

Long Chen nodded and gestured at Tang Wan-er and them to be at ease before just calmly walking onto the death-deciding stage .

“Little Wilde, this brother of yours isn’t bad . He’s got guts . This old man likes that style . ” The old man looked at Long Chen brightly with a bit of admiration . “But are you not worried for him?”

“What do I need to be worried about? My brother Long is super strong; no one can beat him!” Wilde shook his head . He was practically blindly confident in Long Chen .

Of everyone present, Wilde was the only one who wasn’t worried for Long Chen . In his eyes, Long Chen was an undefeatable G.o.d .

Even if Long Chen were to fight Ling Yun-zi, Wilde would still think Long Chen would win .

That old man couldn’t help shaking his head . With his eyesight, he naturally managed to see through Long Chen’s cultivation base . He was at the peak of Blood Condensation, his blood and qi were surging, and his fighting power was definitely strong .

But his physical body was still quite a bit weaker than Wilde’s, and that saber tooth bone blade he had wasn’t a true weapon, so its power was also not great .

And so Long Chen essentially had no chance of defeating Wu Qi . If Long Chen could even manage to keep surviving until the rebirth monolith fell, that would already be amazing to him .

“If he can survive, then I’ll personally go make him a weapon,” muttered the old man .

“Old man, you should go back now,” said Wilde .

“Why?”

“My brother Long will definitely win . If you start making the weapon now, you can save some more time . What are you wasting time here for?” Wilde said simple-mindedly as if Long Chen’s victory was already set in stone .

That old man actually laughed . He knew Wilde’s temperament, so he didn’t say anymore, turning back to look at the death-deciding stage . At this point, Wu Qi also walked in .

After Wu Qi entered, the gate immediately shut . A groove in the rebirth monolith lit up, and people saw that it was already starting to slowly descend .

This death-deciding battle had begun .
