Chapter 1679 – Lin Ming’s Choice
…
…
…
Without a doubt, Sheng Mei was the most powerful person in this final trial. Everyone was curious as to what difficulty she would choose.
Sheng Mei’s expression was indifferent. Her steps slowly moved forwards and her slim body fluttered like a blue flower petal in the wind.
The direction she chose was the second gate from the right, the heaven-step space-time gate!
“It’s the heaven-step! Soul Empress Sheng Mei has chosen the heaven-step difficulty!” Many spiritas martial artists exclaimed, startled.
“Hey! To the Soul Empress, just what is the heaven-step gate? The last time the Soul Empress was in the final trial she also chose the heaven-step difficulty. If the Soul Empress chooses the heaven-step difficulty then it’s likely she can already perfectly complete it.”
To perfectly complete the heaven-step difficulty. To those listening, this was already a legend!
And at this time, nearly everyone had made their choice. The only ones missing were Lin Ming and Xiao Moxian.
Lin Ming speechlessly rubbed his temples, a bit exasperated.
His original plan was to have everyone enter their space-time gates and then he would choose. Like this, it wouldn’t arouse anyone’s interest no matter what he chose.
But, the space-time gates just happened to activate all at once, sucking everyone in. If so, then Lin Ming had no other options but to make his choice under the eyes of everyone.
Lin Ming looked at Xiao Moxian. Xiao Moxian said, “Big Brother Lin, I’ve chosen.”
“Mm…”
Lin Ming nodded. The truth was that at this time, not many people were paying attention to Lin Ming; they were only looking at Soul Empress Sheng Mei, wanting to see what choice she would make. As for Lin Ming, not many people cared for him.
Of course, there were always at least some individuals keeping a sharp eye on Lin Ming. For instance, Duke Fullmoon.
Duke Fullmoon stood behind the Third Crown Prince, glaring at Lin Ming. With so many people here it was impossible for him to launch a sudden attack. He would have to wait until he reached the third level and then look for a chance to have some fun with Lin Ming.
However, Duke Fullmoon hadn’t thought that even now, Lin Ming still wouldn’t have made his choice. Instead, he stood before the four space-time gates, deep in thought.
He began to slowly understand the reason why Lin Ming still hadn’t made his choice.
It must be because although Lin Ming had a high comprehensive combat efficiency, the reason for this was also because of his divine runic symbols. But in the Gate of Laws, these external objects were useless!
Thinking of this, Duke Fullmoon mockingly jeered.
“You little beast, are you scared? The Gate of Laws tests a martial artist’s talent and external items cannot play any role! Don’t think you can rely on your divine runic symbols; no matter how powerful they are they will still be nothing more than scraps of paper! I hope that you can emerge from the Gate of Laws alive, then I can personally kill you and take all of your treasures, hahaha!”
Duke Fullmoon recklessly laughed.
Lin Ming coldly looked at Duke Fullmoon, ignoring his provocation. However, Duke Fullmoon had managed to warn Lin Ming about something. That was that in the Gate of Laws, all external items were useless.
Thinking about it, this was also well within reason. If external items could be used then this wouldn’t be a true test of a martial artist’s talent.
Seeing the Gate of Laws slightly tremble, as if the space vortex was brewing, Lin Ming shook his head. “Forget it, it doesn’t matter if others think I’m an idiot…”
Lin Ming already expected that his choice would cause the many people here to think he was nothing but a brain-dead lunatic. And in truth, this was an inevitable matter…
Xiao Moxian stepped out before Lin Ming. Her step was light and sprightly, like a beautiful butterfly floating forwards. Although her step didn’t seem quick, she arrived in front of the space-time gate she chose in the blink of an eye.
Her choice was the heaven-step difficulty. She stood beside Soul Empress Sheng Mei.
For a time, even Sheng Mei looked at Xiao Moxian with surprise.
For such a young and delicate young girl to stand next to Sheng Mei, this sight was simply too dazzling.
The originally noisy crowd calmed down for some time. Everyone discovered that there was something strange about the atmosphere, and as they discovered the reason, they all looked towards Xiao Moxian.
As they looked at Xiao Moxian they were all dumbfounded. Everyone already had high expectations of the heaven-step difficulty; they looked at her with their eyes wide open.
Just what background did this young girl have that she would choose the heaven-step difficulty?
Suya also covered her mouth. For better or worse, she had known Xiao Moxian for a long time and now considered her similar to a little sister. Although she could feel that Xiao Moxian’s talent wasn’t ordinary, she hadn’t thought that she would have the confidence and courage to choose the heaven-step difficulty!
And before everyone had time to respond, something even more ridiculous occurred!
They saw a black-clothed young man stroll past the heaven-step difficulty gate, towards the rightmost gate. That was the Asura difficulty space-time gate!
As for Duke Fullmoon, who had been watching Lin Ming from the start, his original mocking smile had completely frozen. He watched with utter disbelief as Lin Ming neared the Asura difficulty space-time gate, his mouth having dropped open, dumbfounded.
“What… what is he doing?” Duke Fullmoon muttered to himself, his eyes wide open. This couldn’t even be called crazy!
Could it be that Lin Ming recognized he couldn’t pass so he had sunken into despair and completely thrown everything to the wind?
