Chapter 111: Evicted (1/2)
”You are crazier than me,” Elder Jing sighed softly and gave up in convincing Yang Wei.
She has finally realized that Yang Wei could be even more stubborn than her in terms of attitude and behavior.
”You know we're going to fall into the void and down there could possibly be death waiting for us.” Elder Jing added.
Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders as he sat down next to Elder Jing. ”If that's the case then I believe it's inevitable since the Pagoda loves to troll people.”
The Pagoda has constantly revealed itself in tempting many cultivators to test their luck in trying to obtain its inheritance and itself, only to result in multiple deaths.
However, the funny part is that, even after many cultivators died, there are constantly new cultivators joining the trial.
Elder Jing nodded her head and wondered if she was being fooled by the mysterious shadow on bringing another person with her.
”Sigh, the cultivation world is ruthless and no one really cares about a mere thousand people's death since the population never decreases,” Elder Jing sighed softly.
Afterward, she leaned her head at Yang Wei's shoulder as she became more exhausted from the gravitational pressure.
Yang Wei wrapped his arm around her shoulder and they embraced each other as they witnessed the final staircase disappearing into the void.
Although they could still struggle themselves to ascend upward, it would simply be a waste of time considering the seemingly endless staircase and the weight that increases exponentially on them.
”Heh, it seems like the Pagoda doesn't want to waste any more time on us,” Yang Wei jokes.
”I bet the Pagoda is cursing at your foolish behavior now,” Elder Jing chuckled softly as they watched the staircase they're in slowly disappearing.
Within a few seconds, the staircase vanished and they started free-falling in the unknown void.
Yang Wei and Elder Jing embraced each other tightly as they smiled at each other on what their fate will become.
Whoosh!
Their bodies tread past the void and a sudden wave of spiritual qi knocked the two of them unconscious as they slowly drifted afloat.
Meanwhile, within the void, a shadow slowly manifested into a miniature Pagoda-looking as it stared at Yang Wei solemnly.
Afterward, it started blinking brightly and the void started combusting, bringing Yang Wei along with Elder Jing into a new place.
A place that seemed to be a mini-house but one that has been neglected as cobwebs could be seen forming in the door and there are no other people living inside.
The miniature Pagoda then flicked Yang Wei and Elder Jing into the ground as he retrieved something from Yang Wei's body.
”Since that senile Old Ling injected his own true qi mixed with his blood essence then I shall spare your life for failing the trial. However, don't expect to have another chance since you no longer have the opportunity to take the trial anymore.”
