Chapter 696 The Stone Tablet’s Tes (1/2)

The courtyard in the middle of the tower was filled with greenery. Lin Huang had caught a glimpse of the stone tablet when he was walking into the room with Bai Gu, but he had ignored it as he thought it was just a piece of decoration. When he returned to the courtyard again, Lin Huang stood in front of the stone tablet and observed it carefully. The stone tablet was a charcoal grey without any inscriptions on it. There were only odd golden lines that looked like a complicated maze.

As Lin Huang was looking at the stone tablet, he suddenly felt woozy and found himself in a maze with gray stone walls surrounding him. He was standing at a crossroads with no idea what was happening. Just when he was trying to figure things out, a female voice came from above.

”The rules of the challenge are as below:

”Each time you're sent into a random location, you'll have to look for any of the exits in the maze within three minutes, and you'll win the level. Flying, s.p.a.ce manipulation, and detection abilities are prohibited.

”Please get ready. We're counting down!”

A countdown timer appeared in the sky as the lady said that and the numbers were descending rapidly.

”10, 9, 8, … 2,1.”

When the timer counted to '1', gigantic words appeared in the sky: ”Go!”

Lin Huang stood where he was, frozen. He could sense clearly that his Territory ability was shutting down and he could no longer detect what was near him anymore. He looked at the four paths. It was fortunate that he did not have difficulty choosing, or else, he would not know which path to take. He was only given three minutes. Once he picked the wrong path, he would fail the test.

Suddenly, four telekinetic flying daggers came out of his body as he was thinking about it. He then controlled the four daggers to whiz down the four different paths. As long as any of them hit a wall, he would control the daggers to switch directions as well as summoning more and more flying daggers to go towards the crossroads that the other flying daggers had discovered.

In less than a minute, Lin Huang had summoned hundreds of flying daggers and eventually found where the exit was. As soon as he found the exit, he then recalled all of the other flying daggers as he charged towards the flying dagger that led him towards the exit. Finally, just as the timer flashed 2:08, he got out the exit.

As soon as he got out of the maze, a white glow flashed in front of him, and he was back at the Sorcerer G.o.ddess Tower, standing in front of the stone tablet.

”Xiao Hei, did I leave this place just now?” Lin Huang asked Xiao Hei immediately.

”No, your consciousness was taken away from the stone table for about two minutes. I think that's the stone tablet's test.”

Lin Huang looked at the stone tablet differently now as he found it terrifying that a G.o.d could remove and transfer his consciousness without him even realizing it.

”I didn't expect you to pa.s.s the test,” The gigantic face appeared and boomed in surprise.

”I just happen to be lucky.” Lin Huang grinned.
