There was no concept of north, south, east, and west here. Zhou Wen carefully observed for a long time, but he didn't discover any differences in the four directions. All he could do was randomly choose one.
Now, passing the trial was no longer a consideration for Zhou Wen. All he wanted to do was leave this place as soon as possible. After leaving the Holy Land, he would get the League officials to investigate Ah Lai's origins.
Everyone who entered the Holy Land had information records. If he had entered at that time, there would definitely be information on him.
If I don't have his information … The corners of Zhou Wen's eyes twitched when he thought of this.
The road seemed endless as it extended all the way to the end of the horizon. Zhou Wen walked for more than an hour, but the surrounding scenery didn't change at all.
Suddenly, Zhou Wen realized that something was different in front of him. He sped up and continued walking forward. He realized that another intersection had appeared in front of him. It looked no different from the intersection he had set off from. The only difference was that there was an additional stone statue in the middle of the intersection.
The stone statue was a three to four-meter-tall root. All four directions of the root were faces. The stone statue's face that was facing Zhou Wen actually said, "Congratulations, Human. You have completed the test. You can become the spokesperson of the Trajectory Holy Temple in the human world."
The moment the stone statue said that, Zhou Wen felt a strong sense of disgust from the Sigh of the King. Even his emotions were affected.
Zhou Wen suppressed his emotions and looked at the stone face. "Sorry, I didn't plan on becoming the spokesperson of the Trajectory Holy Temple. I only accidentally entered this place to bring a friend out."
Zhou Wen cursed inwardly, It's clear that you were the ones who forcefully pulled me in. Furthermore, how is this a trial? It's a forced selection.
"Since you're already here, why don't you think about it a little? Become the spokesperson of the Trajectory Holy Temple in the human world. Not only can you obtain the Trajectory Holy Body, but you can also obtain a Mythical Companion Beast that matches it, "the stone face added.
"Thank you for your kind intentions, but I already have my own goal. The Trajectory Holy Temple isn't my choice. Please open the door and let us leave this place." Zhou Wen increasingly felt that this fellow was up to no good. He had ulterior motives for being so solicitous for no reason.
The stone face didn't say anything else. Its originally expressive face slowly stiffened, turning into a lifeless stone statue.
Zhou Wen shouted a few more times, but the stone statue didn't react at all. It was as though it was an ordinary stone statue.
Zhou Wen thought for a moment before circling around the stone statue and continuing forward. After walking for a while, another intersection appeared in front of him. In the middle of the intersection was still the four-faced stone pillar.
Zhou Wen sized up his surroundings and felt that this was the intersection he had previously passed. He couldn't help but frown slightly, but the stone statue didn't react. All he could do was change directions and continue walking forward.
Soon, Zhou Wen realized that no matter which direction he walked in, he would eventually return to the four-faced stone pillar. It was as though this place was an endless Samsara.
Ah Lai, who was on the Mutated Lotus Flower Ant's back, woke up and asked while rubbing his eyes, "Why are we still here?"
Zhou Wen looked at Ah Lai and suddenly had a thought. "You previously said that when you entered the Trajectory Holy Temple, there was a ship inside?"
"Yes, it's a ship. It's identical to the ship my dad works on," Ah Lai answered.
"You used to be on your dad's ship, right?" Zhou Wen asked again.
"That's right. On the first day after high school graduation, my dad took me on the ship," Ah Lai answered.
"Then take a closer look. Have you been here before? Have you seen it before? "Zhou Wen said as he pointed at the four-faced stone pillar.
Ah Lai looked at it for a while and answered with certainty, "No, I've never seen it before."
After Zhou Wen heard that, he seemed to understand something as he frowned in thought. From Ah Lai's situation, people who enter the Trajectory Holy Temple should be trapped in their memories. However, since Ah Lai hasn't been here before, nor has he seen the four-faced stone pillar, it's very likely that this is my memory. However, I don't think I've been to such a place before, right?
Guide City, where Zhou Wen was born, was a plain. Even if there were large tracts of land there, they were all fields. It was impossible for there to be such a large grassland. Zhou Wen was certain that he had never been here before.
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Wen suddenly pulled out his Bamboo Blade and slashed at the four-faced stone statue.
The Bamboo Blade was extremely sharp. When it slashed at the stone pillar, it split the stone statue into two. However, the broken stone statue vanished with a bang.
The surrounding roads and grassland vanished as well. When Zhou Wen saw the scene in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but break out into a cold sweat.
He was indeed standing at a crossroad. However, this crossroad wasn't built on a grassland, but on a volcanic magma pool.
If Zhou Wen hadn't followed the path and stepped onto the grassland, he would probably have fallen into the magma pool.
In the middle of the crossroad was a stone platform. On the stone platform floated a black seed. It looked like it was condensed from the night sky as it emitted a strange and mysterious aura.
This aura was similar to the Sun God Crystal that Zhou Wen had previously obtained, but it was somewhat different.
Zhou Wen attempted to grab the seed with his hand, but nothing special happened. The black seed was easily removed by him.
Boom!
The instant the black seed was plucked by Zhou Wen, the entire temple trembled. The door opened once again and Zhou Wen saw Li Xuan standing outside.
He hurriedly left the Trajectory Temple with Ah Lai. Indeed, he saw the Trajectory Temple glow brightly. Many carvings emitted a strange black fog. It was a sign that the Trajectory Temple already had a successor.
From now on, the Trajectory Temple would be completely closed until the next Holy Land opening.
"Old Zhou, don't you have a body compatible with the Sun God Temple? How did you pass the Trajectory Temple's trial? "Li Xuan looked at Zhou Wen in surprise.
"I don't know what's going on either. I find it somewhat baffling." Zhou Wen looked at the black seed in his hand and felt that something was amiss.
He felt that this black seed had been given to him by the Trajectory Temple and not something he had truly obtained through the trial. At the very least, he wasn't trapped in his memories.
Zhou Wen even suspected that the four-faced stone statue's words weren't a test or an illusion. Instead, it was really trying to rope him in.
"Who cares? It's better to have something than nothing. If the people from the six families know that you have directly obtained the recognition of two temples, I believe their expressions will be very interesting," Li Xuan said with a chuckle.
"There's nothing to flaunt about." Zhou Wen got Li Xuan to watch Ah Lai as he secretly took a picture of the black seed with his phone and sent it into the game.
He had a nagging feeling that the Trajectory Temple was strange, so he didn't dare directly absorb the black seed.
