Chapter 254: Test of luck

At the top of the tower, the area of this floor was much smaller than all the other floors.

This was a floor that had a room that was only ten meters in length. At the center of the room was a giant brown crystal floating there.

It was clear that the pressure on the lower floors was coming from this crystal and based on the aura around it, it seemed like the pressure was coming purely from the law contained within the crystal. However, Lin Fan already knew that since he had already absorbed the law.

Lin Fan now had a total of five laws that were all at the Fragmented Soul Realm when it came to comprehension. Some would naturally be stronger since they came from stronger realms, but that was the limit of Lin Fan's comprehension right now. Even if he wanted to use stronger laws, his cultivation didn't allow him to support it.

But that was more than enough for him.

Back then, he had been able to fight someone who was a full realm above him with just the combination of five laws. If he were to add up all the various laws that he had now, he could perform a combination with seven different laws.

It was hard to imagine just what kind of power would be contained in such an attack.

Of course, the one thing that Lin Fan had also wanted to do was take a bit of Momonga and Angela's laws, but naturally they wouldn't allow that since they had their pride as experts. The only thing that Lin Fan didn't know about was that Angela probably would have been willing to do it if only he had asked, but it was too bad that he had never asked.

Momonga moved towards the crystal in the center of the room, but once he came within a meter of it, there seemed to be a glass pane that had stopped him from moving forward.

Naturally this barrier was not on a level that could really stop Momonga if he were to use his full force, but there was no need for him to do so. After all, this crystal only contained the laws of a Ruler, but this wasn't considered that rare for him. Once the laws in the crystal were used up, it would just be a normal crystal.

Well, of course it wouldn't just be a normal crystal since it is a crystal that could hold the laws of a Ruler, but that still didn't mean anything to him.

After five minutes, they suddenly felt a force appear around them which they chose not to resist since they knew it was part of the trial. The force took them up through a hole in the top of the tower and quickly moved them through a passage in the roof of the cave. They first went up for a bit before suddenly moving forward.

Eventually they finished moving through the passage to reach an opening which led them out of the mountain that they had been in.

As they looked around, they could tell that they were in a large glass tube that was connected to something. As well, along the outsides of the tube, there was a barrier that was covering the tube which was clearly camouflaging it.

Looking out of the tube, it really was a breathtaking sight to see the entire realm beneath them, but there was actually an even more breathtaking sight above them. In the clouds, there was actually a castle that was completely made of stone that was floating on a cloud.

The moment he saw it, Lin Fan immediately remembered a certain movie that he had seen back on earth. After he had seen that movie, even he had wanted to search the clouds to see if that castle in the sky had really existed.

But at this moment, it really did exist in front of him.

They continued through the tube, moving at incredible speeds until they reached the end of the tube which was connected to the piece of rock that the castle in the sky was floating on.

Once they entered the rock that castle was floating on, they continued through a passage until they finally came to the courtyard of the castle.

It was a castle that was completely normal, but it was also very strange since everything in the castle was completely made of rocks. Even the plants that decorated the courtyard were made of rocks. It was almost like someone had used a petrification beam to turn everything in this castle to rocks, but they knew that wasn't the case. This castle was most likely built like this since the previous inhabitants were also made completely of rocks.

There wasn't anything for them in the courtyard, but as they headed towards the main castle, they found that there was something that was in their way. From the outside, it was a labyrinth that was completely made of stone walls.

As they headed to the entrance, they eventually saw a wooden sign sticking out of the ground right in front of the entrance.

After coming over, they read the sign and found that it was the rules of their fourth trial.

The sign read, "Congratulations on passing the third test. Your fourth trial will be a trial of luck. Sometimes the most important thing is to have luck, pure and simple luck is the most powerful in the world. There is nothing special about this trial, just make your way through the labyrinth to reach the final trial."

Lin Fan's group all looked at each other with confused looks, but there was nothing they could do since there was nothing else here for them. The only thing they could do now was make their way through the labyrinth and see what would happen.

So without another word, their group entered the entrance of the labyrinth and continued right through the passage, walking for around five minutes before reaching their first split. It was worth noting that in the first passage, there hadn't been a single twist, they had been walking straight forward for five minutes.

If they had really good eyesight, they might have been able to see the wooden sign that was right behind them still.

When they came to this first split, it was a very simple split. There was one passage leading left and one passage leading right without any markers at all. There was absolutely nothing special about these passages.

Lin Fan knit his brows as he stood before the passages, not knowing what to do.

After a few minutes of thinking, Lin Fan asked Momonga, "What should we do now? Do we really just use our luck and choose one?"

Momonga had also been considering this situation, but he was much more relaxed than Lin Fan since he knew something that he didn't.

Momonga had been using his spiritual sense to search the labyrinth and he hadn't found a single thing from either of the passages, which meant that there really weren't any tricks here. But he couldn't help finding it funny since this really did seem like something his old friend would have done and it seemed like he had passed this on to his subordinate in Leo.

However, after thinking this, there was a slight moment of depression as he remembered the matters of the past. Still, he didn't let that keep him down since he now had found something interesting in the present.

Actually, he was quite happy with his current arrangement and while he knew that it wouldn't last forever, he didn't mind if it could continue a bit longer.

Momonga shook his head before saying, "It's not up to us to choose, it's up to the little girl."

Angela and Lin Fan looked at each other with confused gazes before looking back at Momonga with the same confused looks.

Lin Fan asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Momonga looked at Angela for a bit before saying, "Do you remember how you let her use her instincts to pick the prizes earlier?"

Lin Fan was still confused, but he said, "Yes, but what about that? That just means that she has good instincts for this kind of stuff, right?"

Momonga revealed a faint smile and shook his head, "It's not as simple as that. Spirits are actually known as symbols of luck in mortal realms, do you know why they are considered that?"

Lin Fan looked at Angela in surprise since this was his first time hearing this, but then he turned back and asked, "Why?"

Momonga had the same faint smile as he said, "Well it's naturally because they are blessed with luck. They are nature's children and receive the blessing of nature, one of those blessings is the blessing of luck. So spirits are naturally blessed with luck and they can pass that luck onto those around them."

Lin Fan looked at Angela in surprise to find that there was also a surprised look on her own face as if she didn't know anything about this.

Momonga wasn't finished there as he said, "This little girl is the Spirit Overlord, the ruler of all spirits, so naturally she has received the strongest blessings and has the strongest luck of all spirits."

But then Momonga turned to ask Angela, "Little girl, didn't the previous generation Overlord teach you this?"

Angela suddenly revealed a sad look as she paused for a few seconds before then saying, "She didn't have time to teach me."

Both Momonga and Lin Fan immediately knew that they had stepped on a landmine and quickly changed the topic.

But they didn't forget to make a mental note of this.

It was clear that this was something that had a deep impact on Angela.
