Chapter 324: Chapter 26: The Immortal Crossing Trial
This time, Lin Jing stayed on the seventy-ninth step for a full month before he fully adapted to the Divine Sense pressure there.
After a month of tempering, Lin Jing felt his Divine Sense had greatly strengthened.
This was the transformation that emerged under the ultimate pressure.
The Trial Grounds seemed more like a place specifically for tempering the body and Divine Sense.
If any Sect had possession of these Trial Grounds, their strength would likely increase significantly.
Unfortunately, the Trial Grounds were within Immortal Crossing Island and could not be moved by anyone.
Lin Jing himself had tried using the System Space, but the pressure here was not formed by the terrain.
Therefore,
even the environmental simulation feature of the System Space could not replicate these Trial Grounds.
……
Having fully adapted to the seventy-ninth step, Lin Jing then stood up, preparing himself, and planned to step onto the eightieth step.
This time, Lin Jing set a goal for himself.
At the very least, he must fully stand on the eightieth step without being pushed down by the repelling force as he was when he first attempted the seventy-ninth step.
Then, Lin Jing called out the system and spoke:
“System, activate the bonus possession function.”
As Lin Jing’s voice fell, a familiar sensation surged over him, and his Divine Sense suddenly soared.
Then came the sound of the system prompt.
“Ding.”
“System Alert: Bonus Possession Activated Successfully. Deducting 5 Harvest Points. After 5 minutes, 1 Harvest Point will be deducted every minute.”
After activating the bonus possession, Lin Jing faced the Divine Sense pressure of the seventy-ninth step with ease.
Having been refined, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense was already very strong, not to mention an additional 40% added to his Divine Sense strength, making him even more formidable.
Feeling his Divine Sense surge so suddenly, Lin Jing had the illusion that he could easily cope with the Divine Sense pressure of even the eightieth step.
However, even with this feeling, he would not attempt it recklessly.
After preparing himself, Lin Jing took a deep breath.
Then, with a determined gaze, he looked towards the eightieth step ahead.
Afterward, Lin Jing raised his foot and stepped directly onto it.
This time, as soon as Lin Jing stepped onto the eightieth step, the repelling force nearly pushed him off.
Lin Jing exerted force to stabilize his form.
In that position, he held on, waiting until he slowly adapted, before cautiously lifting his second foot.
Lin Jing knew that once both feet were on the eightieth step, he would face an even greater repelling force.
So, before he lifted his second foot, Lin Jing was already furiously circulating the Spiritual Power in his body, preparing to resist the sudden onrush of the repelling force.
As Lin Jing’s second foot slowly rose and settled on the eightieth step,
the immense repelling force suddenly struck. Lin Jing, with one foot forward and one back, braced himself against the ferocious repelling assault.
The repelling force was indeed formidable, and despite Lin Jing’s full resistance, he was still nearly pushed down the eightieth step.
At that moment, his leading foot had already lifted off the ground, just shy of falling off.
Fortunately, at that critical moment, the repelling force disappeared, and Lin Jing was not pushed off.
With the repelling force gone, Lin Jing braced for the next challenge.
The crushing pressure and the Divine Sense pressure were about to hit him.
However,
just then, an unexpected change occurred.
The oppressive force and the Divine Sense pressure that should have come did not arrive.
Instead, the eightieth step began to shake.
This was the first time Lin Jing had encountered such a situation, making him wary and ready to transport himself into the System Space at any moment.
Lin Jing stabilized his stance to avoid being shaken off while looking around, trying to understand what was happening.
But as Lin Jing looked down, he discovered…
The steps below were disappearing one by one.
As the steps below vanished, a small stele beside the eightieth step slowly rose.
The steps behind Lin Jing disappeared quickly, and within a short while, all the steps behind him were gone.
Now, behind Lin Jing, there was nothing but empty space.
Once the stairs behind him disappeared, a sandstorm blew in, covering everything tightly, leaving nothing visible to the eye.
Lin Jing couldn’t help but frown.
This sudden turn of events was uncertain whether it was good or bad.
Given Lin Jing’s current location, it probably wasn’t anything good.
Then, Lin Jing looked at the stele beside the eightieth step, and the words on it caused his face to change dramatically.
It read:
“The Immortal Crossing trial officially begins.”
“From this moment, exiting will result in death!”
However, the stele continued to rise.
Quickly, more words were revealed, and Lin Jing focused on the stele, eager to see what the next sentence was.
