Chapter 326 - Chapter 326: Chapter 28 Leaving Immortal Crossing Island (2/2)
Then, the light screen changed scenes, and the top of the stone platform appeared.
A person, whose appearance was indistinct, came to the top of the stone platform and jumped directly into the deep pool, entering the vortex within.
After jumping in, the light screen once again turned blank, and the ink-like writing reappeared.
“Survive for two breaths under the Heavenly Tribulation, and you may obtain an unparalleled Immortal Artifact.”
Afterward, the ink writing on the light screen vanished, and it was replaced by a person wielding an incredibly extraordinary-looking Flying Sword that radiated with iridescent, golden light.
Wherever the Flying Sword passed, countless top cultivators were slain with a single strike.
The one controlling the Flying Sword then stood amidst the high skies, laughing heartily under the admiring gazes of the crowd.
“Survive for three breaths under the Heavenly Tribulation, and you would be directly granted immortal qi to refine your body, becoming an immortal on the spot.”
When the ink characters faded this time, the light screen showed a splendidly magnificent Immortal Palace, with palaces made of gilt and jade tiles emanating dazzling golden glows.
Within the light screen, each person bore an aura of immortality, some riding cranes and others steering clouds, heading to the Immortal Palace to attend a banquet of celestial delicacies.
At that banquet,
numerous indescribable Spirit Fruits were neatly laid out, and just looking at them was almost enough to make one’s mouth water…
However, all of this
vanished completely with the disappearance of the light screen.
Like a fleeting dream or a bubble’s shadow.
After the disappearance of the light screen, the array suddenly altered, and an extremely terrifying aura enveloped Lin Jing in an instant.
Lin Jing felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.
He saw above his head, countless lightning arcs gathering,
seeming to form a thick Heavenly Thunder that would engulf Lin Jing.
After seeing the images on the light screen, Lin Jing knew that this Heavenly Thunder could very likely be the dreadful thunder from the screen.
Such Heavenly Thunder was something Lin Jing, with his current cultivation, could not withstand at all.
Let alone endure for one or two breaths…
That was even more impossible.
At this moment, the lightning arcs were still gathering.
And that sense of danger was growing stronger and stronger, to the point where even Lin Jing’s cultivation began to waver.
Under the influence of this Heavenly Thunder, his cultivation could hardly be suppressed.
As the Heavenly Thunder was about to finish gathering, the formation, at this moment, bound Lin Jing in place.
He found himself unable to even move his body.
Lin Jing then hastily summoned the System.
Before the descent of the Heavenly Thunder, he entered the System Space.
Only after entering the System Space did Lin Jing let out a sigh of relief.
He then immediately activated Observation Mode to observe the outside situation.
Although Lin Jing had disappeared from the eighty-first step,
the Heavenly Thunder still struck down accurately.
The thunder kept bombarding the ground of the eighty-first step.
In Observation Mode, seeing this Heavenly Thunder made Lin Jing’s heart quail.
This Heavenly Thunder was not as simple as the Golden Core Thunder Tribulation.
Lin Jing only knew that this Heavenly Thunder was very strong,
far beyond what he could endure at his current level.
Perhaps because Lin Jing had vanished, the Heavenly Thunder continued unabated.
This made Lin Jing dare not return to the eighty-first step.
Left with no choice, Lin Jing changed his observation angle.
However, while in Observation Mode,
Lin Jing actually saw the top of the stone platform, which had been concealed by the formation before.
At this moment, there was no formation protecting the top of the stone platform, only the vortex-like deep pool in the center.
Lin Jing was instantly overjoyed.
From the previous light screens, Lin Jing knew that this pool was the exit out.
The other things, the Immortal Artifact, and the infusing to become immortal, needless to say, Lin Jing did not believe in them.
They were definitely false.
But this pool could very likely be real.
After all, this was the only exit in the Trial Grounds.
To confirm his suspicion, Lin Jing used Observation Mode to probe inside the deep pool.
It was there, within the pool, that Lin Jing finally found a Teleportation Array.
It seemed correct,
that Teleportation Array was indeed the exit out.
Following that, Lin Jing summoned the System and then spoke:
“System, use Fixed Point Teleportation.”
Afterward,
Lin Jing chose to land next to the pool at the top of the stone platform.
Once the choice was made, the system’s voice came again.
“Fixed Point Teleportation initiated, 1 Harvest Point consumed, remaining Harvest Points: 8807 Harvest Points.”
Immediately after, Lin Jing appeared at the designated location.
Then, he looked back at the steps and discovered that the array was continuously supplying energy to the Heavenly Thunder,
which was why the thunder hadn’t stopped.
Lin Jing also understood at this point that this was not some sort of Trial Grounds at all,
but clearly a trap.
Perhaps it had been a Trial Grounds before, but it was modified to be this way.
However, now…
Lin Jing had already escaped, and naturally did not care about these things anymore.
Afterward,
Lin Jing turned back, took one last glance at the vast expanse of yellow sand,
and then leaped directly into the deep pool.
