Chapter 182: Finally, After 100,000 Years, You've Arrived (2)

Whoosh! Whoosh! Without hesitation, they transformed into streaks of light, hurtling with all their might toward the colossal temple.

Every one of them was filled with desire and vigor, and Wu Yuan was no exception. When caution was warranted, he acted accordingly. But when a great opportunity arose, he would naturally do his best to seize it.

At this moment, Wu Yuan, Bu Yu, Li Yan, and Song Guang finally comprehended why Jin Qing had sought to kill them from the outset. Perhaps he had foreseen the existence of this enormous immortal relic.

A tense atmosphere settled over the group. In particular, suspicion lingered between Wu Yuan and Song Guang, their eyes darting warily at each other, preparing for a sudden attack.

However, as Wu Yuan took the lead and Song Guang followed close behind, both showed no signs of hostility in their demeanor, allowing the other Grandmasters to heave a sigh of relief.

No matter how strong I am, I cannot guarantee a swift victory over Song Guang. If I attack him, the Grandmasters may scatter and flee, disrupting our unity. Wu Yuan had reasoned it out.

He wasn’t confident that he could eliminate all the Grandmasters. Furthermore, they had yet to encounter any of Great Jin’s experts after leaving the waiting area. Therefore, Wu Yuan was reluctant to instigate internal conflict that would only serve to benefit the enemy. For Wu Yuan and the Cloudstride Sect, Great Jin was their number one nemesis.

...

In a mysterious space within the walls of the grand bronze temple.

Boom! Boom! Boom! A giant, standing three meters tall, unleashed thunderous punches that ruptured the air. Each step it took shook the earth.

Whoosh! A figure shrouded in black armor, nearly two meters tall, desperately evaded the relentless onslaught of the giant, not daring to confront it head-on.

The force behind each of the eldritch warrior's punches exceeds two million catties. Why is this trial so difficult? Blood trickled down Jin Qing’s lips, his chest bursting with frustration.

At first, he had thought he would be able to engage in combat with this towering giant and eventually kill it. But a single punch had been enough to bring him to his knees.

The giant only executed ordinary combat techniques and seemed unable to employ Power Surge. Yet its combat strength derived solely from sheer power and speed was mind-boggling. Even with the protection of his spirit battle armor, Jin Qing was cautious not to endure another direct blow.

As for close-quarters combat? He tried it once. The giant's arms, abdomen, back, and thighs, had immediately transformed into lethal weapons, exerting astonishing strength. The giant operated flawlessly, akin to a perfect fighting machine.

Ten breaths. I just need to endure for another ten breaths longer, and I can complete this trial. I’ve come this far, surrender is not an option. Determination gleamed in Jin Qing's eyes.

However, just as this thought entered his mind, the giant suddenly spun and launched a swift kick. The attack was ten times faster than the speed of sound, striking Jin Qing and sending him flying.

Boom! As he collided forcefully with the wall, a fist as hefty as a sandbag soon followed suit, but Jin Qing managed to evade it with every ounce of his strength, feeling the walls and the ground both trembling as he rolled out of the way.

Venturing alone was far riskier, but no one was willing to share a treasure they had obtained.

"I, too, choose to go alone," stated Song Guang.

"Let us split up!”

“Considering the number of doors, the odds of encountering an expert from Great Jin are relatively slim.” Each individual made their choice.

An opportunity had presented itself, and everyone yearned to seize it.

"Shadow Blade, it would undoubtedly be safer if I follow you. But if I were to select a different door, our sect's chances of acquiring valuable treasures would rise substantially," Bu Yu spoke to Wu Yuan, cautious enough to refrain from using his true name. “Besides, if I do encounter danger, I won't weigh you down."

"Take care," Wu Yuan said softly.

"You too."

Finally, with a tacit understanding, the seven Grandmasters went through separate doors.

Song Guang boldly stepped in first, swiftly swallowed by the enveloping darkness. Bu Yu followed suit. Eventually, only Wu Yuan remained, standing before the massive temple.

He meticulously studied every door, his gaze lingering on each one in search of any clues, but there was nothing. As each Grandmaster entered, no sound could be heard from them as if the darkness had consumed them entirely.

Let's go in. Wu Yuan made up his mind. With closed eyes, he reached out and selected a door at random. Stepping through it with confident strides, he suddenly found himself submerged in an abyss of darkness, devoid of any guiding light. Doubt crept into his mind, causing him to hesitate.

Then, a low hum resonated through the air, an invisible ripple passing him by. Surprise flickered in Wu Yuan's eyes. But before he could even contemplate fleeing, space warped, and his body disappeared from its original location.

...

Hum~ Wu Yuan’s vision was blurry as dizziness washed over him. It reminded him of the sensation he experienced when he first entered the Chu-Jiang Immortal Realm. As the surrounding scene solidified, he felt the firm ground beneath his feet.

This? His pupils contracted in astonishment as he beheld a towering temple before him. It reached an impressive height of 100 zhangs and its length and width were several hundred zhangs.

Every surface of the temple, from its walls to its floor, was crafted in gleaming bronze. Gargantuan jade platforms replaced conventional seats, appearing more suitable for giants than ordinary humans.

Suddenly, an indifferent voice, ancient and indistinct, echoed throughout the vast temple. "Finally, after 100,000 years, you have arrived."
