Chapter 72 Chapter: 005 Preliminary Test Part III

Outside the ruins on the Shattered Region, a youth was suddenly ejected.

When he first came out, he was still unsure about what happened. But soon, he regained clarity of mind as he realized he had returned to the ruins's entrance.

The youth was covered in sweat and a look of indignation and disappointment appeared on his face.

He had been eliminated.

And looking at his surroundings, there was no one else. He was the first to be eliminated.

Thinking back to his experience inside there, it was completely realistic and scary the power of the illusions. He had relived the most horrible event in his childhood and It was his worst nightmare. And just as he finally forgot that event, all the memories that he strugled to forget had been perfectly restored. He even believed that he had returned to his childhood and he was suffering that horrible event once again.

There was no other way. It was too difficult for him to conquer his worst nightmares.

At that moment, he saw that another figure was ejected.

The youth quickly focused and realized that the bald youth who had been eliminated right after him was the one of the first realm cultivators from before.

Sensing another person's gaze, the bald youth turned his head around and gave the other youth a silly smile.

The youth suddenly felt vexed as this bald youth in front of him did not feel any embarrassment or indignation from being eliminated early.

After that, more and more people were expelled from the ruins. Most people were still frantically wielding their weapons when they were ejected. It was only after a while before they regained clarity of mind. With a pale face, they revealed regret or fear on their faces.

At that moment, Polan was ejected out. His body was covered in sweat and his legs were weak. But after he came out, he immediately observed his surroundings.

Seeing that nearly half of the three hundred elites had been ejected, Polan felt relieved. He had been desperately struggling to achieve better results at this test and it appeared that his efforts were not in vain.

But at that moment, Polan suddenly discovered that Elijah, Aina and Keith was not amongst the people who had been ejected and Polan, who was just feeling relaxed, suddenly felt terrible.

Then he found an empty spot to sit down and wait with a gloomy face.

...

At that moment, in the world of illusions.

There was a lush green forest bellow a huge floating palace . Aina was walking in the forest with her hair flying in the wind.

Unlike many others, Aina did not encounter any enemies or nightmares when she entered the illusion. She seemed to be having a long dream.

In the dream, she returned to her childhood days. When she had suffered acident were a she falled from a cliff and lost her tallent to cultivate and because of this she had to withstood the exclusion and mockery of her cousins and the indifference from her uncles and aunts.

Even so, she end up as a spy for her faction.

She cultivated nonstop as she continuously matured but it was without effect, she did not want to lose hope and continued to try but she allways failed.

After 15 years, it was when everything truly changed for her. Opening her eyes, she was surprised to discover a man standing in front of her with a smile.

That man was handsome and he had profound grey eyes that stare at her. He gave off the feeling that was neither good nor evil, but just looking at him made her heart race. This man was her target, she was sent to a small village where she had to investigate but when she realized the he was just like her. This man was her target, she was sent to a small village where she had to investigate but when she realized the he could not cultivate just just like her, she could not help but fall in love with him. in the end they married and had two kids, they had a happy life full of love until the day he received a letter.

Her organization had began a major attack in the entire continent and she had been given the order to kill the man and return to the main base, but she could not force herself to hurt him and refused but as everyone in the village was part of the organization, there was only one thing she could do. In the end she send her two kids away, as she were exchanged them by magic puppets and on the day they were leaving the village, she stabed him in a place she knew that would not kill him and then she would let he kill her and escape, but something she would never expect happened.

His divine lineage awaked and he stabed her chest with a lightning sword and just as she was about to die, she looked straight at his eyes and seeinghe has lost all reason, she mumbled her last words: "El... I... Lov... You..."

Just as she was experiencing death, for some unknown reason, she suddenly woke up and realized that whatever that had just happened was a dream.

Everything was the same as the first dream, the only change was that on the day she was supposed to fall the cliff. She was saved by her master, who was part a ancient abyss lineage. with the help of her master, she was deemed as one of the best talent of her organization she even reached the peak of the fourth realm before twenty and everything was good for her. But this time she didn't go to the village nor met the man from her dreams at least until her grandfather who didn't care about her before had given several gifts and even gave her the position as the head of the Galdirth Branch.

On the most impossible place, she managed to find him. Fighting with another cultivator of the fourth realm, using power she has neven seen before exuding an air of magnamity and mystery that made him even more atractive. Then everthing flowed to the time when the entered the ruins and when the mist on the primary hall made them sleep.
