The misty forest was filled with danger. Screams would occasionally break the silence, rising and falling.
Pu pu pu pu pu …
Broken Star Wang Yuan Qing had just entered the mist when he was attacked by wave after wave of arrows. The mist of the God's Trial Field was no ordinary mist. It had the powerful ability to isolate Soul Strength. Here, one could only rely on the six senses to sense danger, such as sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and the sixth sense, intuition.
Everyone had six senses, but some were strong and some were weak.
After dodging the countless arrows, Yuan Qing didn't even have time to catch his breath. Suddenly, in front and behind him, two enormous steel walls covered in spikes came flying at him.
"Not good!"
Yuan Qing was shocked. The entire God's Trial Field was filled with a viscous, formless energy that caused his speed to greatly decrease. These two steel walls were incomparably fast, surpassing his speed. There was no way he could dodge them.
Since he couldn't dodge, he could only go all out.
Yuan Qing's weapons were two large hammers, one on the left and one on the right. Yuan Qing used all his strength to smash at the steel walls.
The sound of metal twisting rang out. The steel walls were pushed back by Yuan Qing.
Pu!
Abruptly …
A spear fell from the sky, piercing through Yuan Qing's head and nailing him to the ground.
"Damn!"
Outside the golden door, Yuan Qing's figure appeared. The trial talisman on his chest suddenly shattered.
… …
"Could it be that I, the Firebird Prince, can't even pass the first stage?"
A fiery red light flashed. The Firebird Prince jumped up and down, looking extremely wretched. Behind him were countless golden dots of light. These golden dots of light were hornets that seemed to be made of gold. They were as big as fists, and their wings flapped. They were like flying swords cutting through the air, incomparably sharp.
The Firebird Prince tried to attack the hornets, but found that even with his full strength, he could only kill a few. The remaining hornets were enough to sting him to death.
In the end, the Firebird Prince was stung by a hornet. His body went numb, and in the next instant, countless hornets pounced on him.
… …
Lan Xian 'er also encountered hundreds of golden wasps, but she was lucky. These wasps had a special structure, and if she used a pure killing move, she could only kill seven or eight at a time. But if she used Second Drive, she could kill more than twenty, and if she used Third Drive, she could kill a large group.
In other words, these Golden Hornets were used to test the extent of their control over their strength, and the most direct manifestation of their control over their strength was how many Bursts they had.
Generally speaking, if one had attained the Second Drive and was slightly stronger, they would be able to contend against the Golden Hornets without being defeated in a single clash.
Of course, defeating the Golden Hornets didn't mean they were out of danger. There were traps everywhere in the Dense Fog Forest, and the Golden Hornets were released from one of them.
Kachak!
The branch under her feet broke, and Lan Xian 'er was alarmed. She bent down subconsciously, and with a puchi sound, a snow-white light brushed past her back. That cold sharpness made her feel cold all over.
Before she could take a breath, Lan Xian 'er jumped up. Below her, the two steel walls were locked together without a single crack. However, the real danger had just arrived. From all directions, countless golden arrows shot over. The golden arrows had spiral patterns on their tips. Once hit, even her Protective Zhen Yuan wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Everything has its flaws. As long as you can find their blind spots, you will be able to get twice the result with half the effort."
Ye Chen's words were still fresh in her memory.
Taking a deep breath, the Zhen Yuan in Lan Xian 'er's body split. Most of it gathered in her arms, and the rest went to her eyes. In her vision, the arrows slowed down a bit. It looked like they were all shooting at her at the same time, but there were actually different directions. Only about half of them could threaten her, and that was if she didn't move.
"Break for me!"
With a flash of sword light, Lan Xian 'er slashed out five times.
Ding ding ding ding ding …
Suddenly, the sound of metal colliding filled the air. Lan Xian 'er's five swords changed the trajectory of the five golden arrows, causing them to hit the other golden arrows. Just like that, it was like dominoes, creating a chain reaction that caused the seemingly unsolvable rain of arrows to collapse on itself.
Xiu!
However, just as Lan Xian 'er let out a breath, a golden arrow passed through a large amount of arrow fragments and pierced through Lan Xian' er's Protective Zhen Yuan. In the end, Lan Xian 'er was nailed to the tree.
Fortunately, there were no more traps.
Pulling out the golden arrow, Lan Xian 'er still had lingering fear. She didn't think that the first trial of the God's Trial Field would be so abnormal. The traps were one after another, not giving people a chance to catch their breath. If there had been another wave of attacks, she wouldn't even have had the time to open the Anatta State.
Of course, this was also because she had been asleep for five years and hadn't fought anyone for five years. After all, no matter how high her strength increased, she still needed a large amount of battle experience.
"Now is not the time to open the Anatta State. If I can't even pass the first trial, it proves that I'm just so-so."
Lan Xian 'er gave up on entering the Anatta State and continued forward.
…
There were too many people who were stopped in the Misty Forest. Some were turned into beehives by the arrow rain, some were stung to death by the golden hornets like Prince Firebird, and some were crushed into a bloody pulp by the steel walls. There were as many ways to die as there were traps in the Misty Forest. Some of the ways to die were strange and unheard of.
There were about fifteen thousand geniuses from the Vermillion Bird Star Region who had come to the God's Trial Field. However, in this short period of time, at least half of them had died. Some geniuses who thought that they were very powerful had also died. They might be able to beat most of the geniuses in a one-on-one battle, but in the Misty Forest, survival was the test.
The dead people appeared outside the golden gate one after another, the trial talismans on their chests shattered.
"Damn, even I, the Loose Hand King, couldn't pass the first trial."
"It's too hard. I couldn't even react in time."
"I guess at least two-thirds of the people will be eliminated. No wonder people say that it's enough to see the God's Trial Field. Don't expect to pass the first trial."
Outside the golden gate, more and more people gathered. Everyone was discussing in low spirits.
…
For most of the people, the first challenge was indeed very difficult. Even if they tried their best, they would still be eliminated. The rest of the people might also be eliminated if they were not careful enough. However, for people at Ye Chen's level, the first challenge would only help them to warm up their muscles and bones. It was just an appetizer.
His figure was like a ghost. Wave after wave of arrows passed through the illusions left behind by Ye Chen, unable to harm him in the slightest. Before the two steel walls could even get close, a corner was cut off. The flying chains were sent flying, entangling a large metal ball that swung over like a pendulum. Due to the entanglement of the chains, the large metal ball changed its trajectory and smashed down the golden iron man that was released from the mechanism. The sound of metal clanging spread out like a wave, flattening everything around it.
In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Ye Chen had traversed the entire Misty Forest and arrived before a race track. This race track was a thousand meters wide and long, with no end in sight.
The moment Ye Chen came out, seven or eight people dashed out at the same time. They were the black-robed young man, the frivolous handsome young man, the saber wielder with a cross scar on his cheek, the two-meter-tall beauty with her hair tied up in braids, the bearded young man, the devilishly handsome young man, and the Graceful Prince.
In the next instant, another dozen people dashed out. Most of them were geniuses on the Heavenly King List, but of course, there were some who weren't.
"Hm?"
The black-robed young man and the handsome young man sized up Ye Chen. They didn't expect him to be so fast, passing through the Misty Forest in an instant, even though they didn't go all out.
In front of the race track, there was a wooden board. There were no rules written on it, only rewards. The first to reach the finish line would be rewarded with ten shenbi, the second would be rewarded with five, and the third would be rewarded with two.
"What's shenbi?"
The handsome young man was puzzled.
"Those who pass the God's Trial Field will be qualified to enter the Paradise of Gods. It's said that shenbi is the currency of the Paradise of Gods. In any case, it's good stuff." The black-robed young man was very confident in himself. He didn't think that the first place would fall to anyone else, so there was no harm in telling them.
"The currency of the Paradise of Gods? Looks like the more the better."
The two-meter-tall Du Sha licked her red lips.
The black-robed young man chuckled, "You better be mentally prepared. Anything that involves shenbi will be very difficult. It won't be easy to get shenbi."
"It's just a race track. How hard can it be?"
More and more people arrived. Some geniuses who were quite accomplished in speed didn't care.
Since there was a race track, it naturally had to be fair. They needed to wait for everyone to arrive before starting. About an hour later, everyone had arrived.
Of the fifteen thousand people who passed through the Misty Forest, only four thousand or so had passed. The elimination rate was more than seventy percent.
"Prince Ye."
Lan Xian 'er came to Ye Chen's side.
"This race track isn't that simple. It might not be a test of speed."
Speed wasn't the most important factor in judging a genius, even though being slow wasn't good either.
After everyone had arrived, the light screen in front of the race track opened.
Shoo!
Almost in an instant, dozens of figures rushed out.
"Damn, there's gravity."
"We can't use Zhen yuan. How is this possible?"
Of those who rushed out, more than half of them fell to the ground in an incomparably sorry state. The genius who rushed out the fastest was clearly the type who was fast in speed but weak in other aspects. His chin was stuck to the ground as he slid out several thousand meters. His body was badly mangled and he was in an extremely miserable state.
"A bunch of idiots."
The black-robed young man slowly walked on the track and closed his eyes.
"I can't use Zhen yuan or any other energy. The gravity is one-twentieth of the God's Star. It really isn't that simple." Opening his eyes, the black-robed young man started running.
"Close to two hundred thousand times the earth's gravity. For most people, this is probably an extreme test." Ye Chen looked at the endless race track and shook his head.
