Chapter 3675 Ridiculous Statue
Using this technique, the Ice Phoenix Clan survived many onslaughts from other phoenixes due to their opposite nature, which bordered on yin flames while all the other phoenix flames were yang flames.
Shirley was confident in her concealment. She made her way around a bit and continued to head further outside, not looking to stay in one place. She felt she needed to find other spatial platforms if she needed some kind of breakthrough in the fight against this ridiculous statue.
But in the distance, there was a flash of light.
Shirley narrowed her eyes, wondering if another mini Eternal Pyre Phoenix Conflagration was launched, but her pupils dilated as she saw the statue disappear.
'Dodge!'
She inwardly screamed and sidestepped to the right using all her might.
*Bang!~*
That statue landed right on the place where she stood, almost crushing her to death.
'No freaking way...!'
As Shirley slid out of the way and the intense undulations attacked her, her concealment came off. Her figure was revealed, her crimson-blue hair flailing as she slipped and rolled on the spatial platform before she quickly picked herself up while rolling and retreated again with back steps, each step taking her away hundreds of meters.
She gazed at the stone statue and saw it charging for another mini Eternal Pyre Phoenix Conflagration, leaving her mortified as she pressed her lips against each other.
This statue could teleport directly above her and try to crush her into meat paste.
She didn't think she could escape something like that no matter where she ran, much less defeat it.
'It's no wonder Dewzai felt it was unbeatable...'
Just as she was feeling at her wit's end and a mini Eternal Pyre Phoenix Conflagration came her way like a divine arrow, her brows widened.
'Wait a minute... Darling always said that if we were to encounter the Celestial Transcendent, we must do everything in our power to flee...'
Shirley's gaze shook.
A divine white fire phoenix crashed straight into her.
*Boom!~*
She was engulfed in white-hot flames that disintegrated her into ashes.
But somewhere in the opposite distance, she stepped out of an icy mirage again, her face solemn as she narrowed her eyes.
'Could it be... this trial is not to defeat this statue strangely modeled after that person but to escape from it...?' Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates
Shirley thought.
This trial was too overpowered. She knew she was one of the most powerful Candidates out here in terms of prowess, but if she couldn't defeat it, then she could barely see others defeating it.
At the same time, the statue's prowess was off the charts for a single attack even though it was the same cultivation base as her, which proved one thing: that this trial wasn't meant to be completed through force.
"If that's the case..."
Shirley wondered.
She stood on the southwestern circular spatial platform first, causing its color to turn more blacker. Then, an attack landed, turning it white before another attack caused it to shatter. This meant she couldn't travel to that circular spatial platform or travel in that direction anymore.
It severed her path, but to where...?
'To the Lower Realms!'
Shirley instantly knew she had to descend further to the lower layer, but if she couldn't find the spatial node before the stone statue shattered all the circular spatial platforms, then she could guess it would be her defeat!
With the previous circular spatial platform having collapsed, the statue remained at the southeastern circular spatial platforms but she didn't let her guard down, knowing it would most likely appear in the current circular spatial platform she stood or somewhere else near.
She quickly ran towards the eastern direction, intending to jump to the northeastern circular spatial platform, but at the same time, her eyes desperately searched for a spatial node in the sixteen- no, fifteen circular spatial platforms left.
'Where is it...?'
Her gaze swept through the horizons. Each of these circular spatial platforms were a few kilometers wide but the spatial nodes were only like a dot in space, extremely difficult to find as the background was also dark.
Her senses couldn't extend as well, so she relied purely on her perception to find it.
*Booom!~*
A mini Eternal Pyre Phoenix Conflagration fell on the northwestern circular spatial platform, causing its color to turn white. However, before it could take more damage, she managed to jump and land on the northeastern circular spatial platform.
However, she felt things were bad as the next stop was to the stone statue itself.
She couldn't find the black dot, inwardly feeling despair as she didn't think she could survive this if all she did was run around and discard the circular spatial platforms that allowed her to remain in this trial.
"Fine, you're asking for it!"
Shirley clenched her teeth and straight towards the statue, heading south.
The statue was still in the southeastern circular spatial platform, so she quickly made her way before the statue could even launch an attack and glided towards it.
Then, finally, its attack was launched.
A mini Eternal Pyre Phoenix Conflagration soared into the air and dived at Shirley.
She had just landed when the divine flaming attack was almost near her, causing her to slide on landing and turn around to jump again. She made it out, but-
*Boooom!~*
"Aah!"
The white-hot flames surged as they exploded, sending Shirley flying with her back set ablaze in white flames. Her expression winced in pain, but she turned around and landed back on the northeastern spatial platform on her back, trying to erase the white-hot flames with the spatial platform's strange power.
With her own energy surging out, her actions somewhat helped to diffuse the eternal flames of the fire phoenix.
Standing up as she made a new robe for herself with martial energy, she saw that the southeastern circular spatial platform had collapsed and sank deeper into the darkness, but most importantly, the statue also fell.
She smirked, thinking she had won, but her expression sank again as she saw the statue disappear mid-air.
"You-!"
She raised her hand, wanting to beat up whoever created this ridiculous trial.
