Chapter 384 The Tension Increases

For coovernloems were not of much value However, that was not necessarily true for the cultivators in it After all, most of the funds of a colomerate had to nurture millions, if not tens of millions of cultivators at the same time

What had shocked Gannet and the others, was not the aems they had received, but the amount that each of the top five cultivators would receive Such an ah-end coenerally le cultivator would consureed and envy did not stay for long on the faces of these thousands of cultivator, who instead of following Gannet into the tunnel, waited for Nilo and the others to walk in

During the time spent in Cato, and in close contact with the roup had coems They were the only form of cultivation resource that would work for cultivators at the stage of high ih-end currency This knowledge allowed thenize these objects the very moment they had appeared in the spatial box which contained Gannet's reward

Contrary to the reaction of everybody else, Nilo and the others were not happy about what they had seen After all, these rewards were awarded in front of everybody else, and if the contest did not allow the tests, they would becohtly annoyed by the attention they were receiving, Gannet gathered his reward, and walked past the second barrier, which immediately turned into a solid wall of space behind his back

Aware that nobody else would take a step through the first barrier before the towards the tunnel's entrance Once in between barriers, a an to form Once coe when the nuems was exactly ninety thousand seven hundred and sixty

Following her, were Nilo who received nine thousand two hundred and twenty, Zack who received nine thousand seven hundred and twenty, Finn who received nine thousand five hundred and forty, and Fyro, who received ten thousand and eighty gems

When compared to them, the rewards received by the rest of the cultivators were quite scarce

Due to the limited number of oceanic warriors, the nu the previous test was drastically smaller than that of any other island, so when any of those cultivators passed the first barrier, instead of being allowed through without a reward, they would directly be teleported out of the One Above All, ether

Unknowingly, the feat of Nilo's group had reduced the numbers of their island's participants to a tenth of what it was originally, turning the spectacle of Volcanic Island into one of theresults in the One Above All so far

Of the twelve thousand cultivators that had started in the Volcanic Island, barelywith their different ranges of rewards safely placed in their spatial containers,tunnel that lead to the inner island

From what the participants could see from afar, the inner island was more than double the size of Volcanic Island, and connected to it through bridges, was not only their island, but also the one to their right, which likely meant that their next test would include the participants of the temple island Similarly, the other inner islands were connected by two outer island each

After an oddly quiet walk through the tunnel, the group of around twelve hundred participants found itself in front of a gate similar to the one that had blocked their path before As they approached it, they noticed that on its surface was a circle forht

This circle of shi+ning bulbs was, however, not complete Two of the bulbs appeared to lack the shi+ne that the others had One of which lit up the very roup reached the open area in front of the gate

”This seereen-clothed cultivator in dark brown leather ared to realize what the objective of their first test was, before it was too late He then added, ”Six hundred and sixty-six island, twelve thousand cultivators each Eight million participants Iht as well rest for a bit” Said Dahlia before taking one of her essence ge On the pallove, hat looked like a hollow part that was just the right size to fit the geelove, and sat in meditation with her eyes closed

”Since when do you carry an essence extractor?” Asked Lorith curiosity

An essence extractor was, just as the naroups Its objective was to test the purity of the geem was real, or a construct of pure essence produced by a cultivator with perfect comprehension

The way this object worked, was not exactly by extracting the essence fro the ie theathered by this equiph to allow a cultivator to quickly restore the lost immortal essence
