Hearing Yue Yang's method, Yue Bing's face turned red from excitement. She asked happily, "Will this really work?"
Yue Yang had never tried it before, so he couldn't be sure. However, he patted his sister's head and encouraged her.
The Taurus Temple was similar to the Aries Temple, but it looked bigger.
There weren't any mechanical beasts in front of them, but there was a row of Ox-head Stone Statues. When Hui Tai Lang walked closer, those stone statues turned back into Ox-head Warriors. These Ox-head Warriors' levels weren't high, they were all Bronze-ranked Level 3. If Yue Bing summoned two Hundred Years Old Treant Defenders, she would probably be able to defeat them. Yue Yang left Hui Tai Lang behind, and all the Ox-head Warriors outside belonged to him.
If it was before, Hui Tai Lang would definitely not be able to handle them. However, after the battle with Lie Lie at the foot of the Cloud Peak Lake, he had evolved into a Gold-ranked Ancient World Destroying Demon Wolf, and his strength had increased greatly.
After that, even the injured Giant Xing Meng was killed by him.
It could be said that after three days, the current Hui Tai Lang was no longer the Iron-backed Demon Wolf that entered the Aries Temple in fear and trepidation.
Yue Yang and Yue Bing dashed inside. The Ox-head Warriors roared threateningly, but they didn't attack the two of them who were protected by the protective shield. Instead, they charged towards Hui Tai Lang, who was disguised as a Bronze-ranked Level 3.
Holding his sister's hand, Yue Yang dashed into the circular corridor outside the temple, and discovered that there were almost a hundred Evil Eyes coming out from everywhere.
Those Evil Eyes floated in the air, their huge eyeballs shooting out rays of white light.
If it was someone else, they would definitely hide first.
Furthermore, if it was a normal warrior, after clearing the first batch of Ox-head Warriors, the time limit of half an hour would be up. It would probably be hard for them to kill these Evil Eyes. Now, Yue Yang and Yue Bing had not even spent a minute before they dashed in. Almost a hundred Evil Eyes shot two rounds of light from their eyeballs. When they discovered that their enemies were safe and sound, they pursed their lips and screamed, as if they wanted to use their willpower to intimidate their enemies.
Yue Yang didn't feel anything, but Yue Bing's heart palpitated slightly.
If she was alone, she would definitely be afraid. But now that her brother was holding her little hand, Yue Bing didn't stop and sprinted all the way into the main passage of the corridor.
The Evil Eyes chased after them, but when they reached the entrance of the tunnel, they turned back as if they were afraid of the Boss inside.
"Oh my god!" Yue Bing, who had just rushed in, was shocked by the scene in front of her.
At this moment, what appeared in front of Yue Yang and Yue Bing was a group of barbaric bulls.
There were ten gigantic Bronze-ranked Barbaric Bulls, each of them Bronze-ranked Level 5. There were also five extremely muscular Barbaric Bulls, all of them were Silver-ranked Level 5. Furthermore, there were two Gold-ranked Level 5 Barbaric Bulls. They were even bigger than a normal wooden house, each of their legs was even taller than Yue Yang. Their gigantic eyes were red, as if they were about to drip blood. They stared at Yue Yang and Yue Bing with a peculiar killing intent. These two Gold-ranked Level 5 Gold-ranked Barbaric Bulls seemed to be mini Bosses. They each occupied a small space on both sides, and each Gold-ranked Barbaric Bull occupied less than 10% of the space.
The one that occupied 80% of the space and had nothing around it was the real Boss. It was a White Bull that was lying lazily on the ground, snoring loudly.
This White Bull wasn't a barbaric bull at all. It looked like it didn't have any lethality at all.
On the surface, this White Bull looked smaller than any of the other Barbaric Bulls. It didn't look like a Boss at all. However, none of the Barbaric Bulls dared to go near it. Yue Yang's eyes were extremely sharp. He could clearly see that there was also a Gold-ranked item like the Golden Bell on the White Bull's nose. It was a Golden Hoop.
The White Bull was lazy. It ignored Yue Yang and Yue Bing's arrival and continued snoring loudly.
Yue Yang realized something strange.
Outside, the pressure that Tu Cheng's summoned beasts, the Gold-ranked Level 7 Ancient Giant Beast and Gold Dragon gave him was far inferior to this Gold-ranked Level 6 White Bull and Aries Temple's Gold-ranked Level 6 Chimera. Not only was this White Bull strong, it also gave people a feeling of intelligence … It gave Yue Yang a feeling of intelligence and spirituality.
If they were to really compare, Yue Yang reckoned that Tu Cheng's Gold-ranked Level 7 Ancient Giant Beast and Gold Dragon couldn't even compare to the Gold-ranked Level 7 Reaper Mantis.
Their levels were higher, or at the same level, but why couldn't they compare?
Was it because of strengthening-type beasts?
Grandma Wu Teng's words and the information in the mysterious diary suddenly flashed past Yue Yang's mind …
Grandma Wu Teng had once said that only beasts with high intelligence could evolve into Holy Beasts and become stronger! The pitiful guy's mother had also mentioned that the more beasts broke through at the same level, the longer the cultivation period was, the greater their growth would be. If all these were put together, it could be concluded that beasts of the same level, or even the same level, would differ greatly due to different cultivation and different experiences.
Although Tu Cheng's Ancient Giant Beast and Gold Dragon were of superior species and higher levels, they couldn't compare to the Reaper Mantis that lived in the wild.
Compared to the intelligent Three-headed Chimera and Gold White Bull that guarded the Twelve Golden Palaces, they couldn't compare at all.
Looking at the Three-headed Chimera and Gold White Bull, even if they weren't Holy Beasts, they weren't far from it.
Yue Yang reflected in his heart. If beasts were like this, wouldn't it be the same for humans? Many martial artists had climbed to Level Four or even Level Five very early on, but they could never reach Level Six for the rest of their lives. On the contrary, there were some martial artists who took their time to cultivate, step by step, and steadily climbed to Level Six [Elder], or even higher. For example, Yue Bing who trained hard and continuously broke through, although she was only a Level 3 [Hero], her strength could even fight against some Level 5 [Grandmasters], and she might not be at a disadvantage … Could this mean that warriors who trained for a long period of time would have more breakthroughs and become stronger at the same level?
This point, Yue Yang couldn't be sure.
However, he decided to train Yue Bing like this, not letting her level up until her strength far surpassed her level, and finally break through naturally.
Thinking about himself, Yue Yang felt that he had also walked this path …
"Bing Er, don't be afraid. Now that we have the shield, they can't do anything to us. Let's go, go to the left passage." Yue Yang now realized that other than the difference in levels, there was also a huge gap between beasts of the same level. There was even a huge gap between intelligent beasts and normal beasts.
No wonder Grandma Wu Teng said that only intelligent beasts could evolve into Holy Beasts.
The Gold-ranked Level 5 Gold Barbarian Bull was at most ten times weaker than the Gold-ranked Level 6 White Bull. Now, it seemed that the difference in strength was almost a hundred times.
That day when they fought against the Three-headed Chimera, Little Wen Li had spent a lot of effort and almost killed the Three-headed Chimera, but the sheep head had recovered instantly. Now, this White Bull seemed to be not simple. If Yue Yang could use his Innate strength, he would definitely win. However, in the Twelve Golden Temples of Star Domain, under the Ancient Code, he could only watch from the side. Furthermore, he had used too much Innate strength previously. Even if he could use his Innate strength here, Yue Yang would still need three months to recover … At first, Yue Yang thought that he would be able to finish the remaining eleven temples in one go, but now it seemed that it was impossible.
At the end of the left passage, there was also a group of Ox-head Warriors.
Yue Yang and Yue Bing summoned their grimoires at the same time. Yue Bing summoned two Hundred Year Old Treant Defenders, but she followed Yue Yang's instructions and kept her grimoire, not collecting any battle experience. Yue Yang summoned the Barbarian Cow Shadow and the Bloody Queen. He couldn't summon the Bloody Queen, but Little Wen Li could help him. Yue Yang felt a little speechless. He actually couldn't control his own summoned beasts. Furthermore, it wasn't just the Bloody Queen. It seemed that other than Little Wen Li and the Barbarian Cow Shadow, the others weren't very obedient.
The battle ended very quickly. Yue Yang didn't immediately bring Yue Bing to the right passage. Instead, he wanted to see if there were any treasures here.
According to the usual practice, there should be some treasures that could help them clear the trial.
Yue Yang searched around in the Left Hall, but other than a huge painting on the wall, there was nothing else.
In the painting, there were a few Ox-head Warriors killing a Barbarian Cow. The painting was very lifelike, and the Barbarian Cow was using [Doom's Eyes]. An Ox-head Warrior was killed by the Barbarian Cow Shadow's stare, and its companions were angrily waving their blood-stained axes towards the Barbarian Cow … There was nothing wrong with the painting, and there were no traps.
There were no treasures, no abnormalities, and no traps.
Yue Yang couldn't understand it no matter how hard he thought about it.
The half-hour time limit of the protective shield disappeared minute by minute. To Yue Yang, it didn't matter, but to Yue Bing, it was the most important protection.
If he wanted to bring her to participate in more battles, he must have this Absolute Protective Shield.
The beasts outside were all Barbarian Cows. Being stared at by a Barbarian Cow was no joke.
Yue Yang carried Yue Bing on his back and ran out of the Left Hall, directly flying past the White Bull. His judgement was very accurate. Although those Gold-ranked Barbarian Cows were extremely angry, they didn't dare to enter the White Bull's territory. On the other hand, the White Bull snorted indifferently and continued to sleep. The appearance of the Bloody Queen in the sky caused a slight disturbance in the herd of Barbarian Cows. The Bloody Queen was now Platinum-ranked Level 5, and she was also a Platinum-ranked King Beast. The invisible deterrence made the herd of Barbarian Cows a little uncomfortable.
Even the White Bull opened its eyes in its sleep. However, when the Bloody Queen flew past, it closed its eyes and continued to sleep.
The Barbarian Cow Shadow also flew past.
The two towering Hundred Year Old Treant Defenders followed him clumsily.
The White Bull suddenly opened its eyes wide. With a glare, the two Hundred Year Old Treant Defenders flew out ten metres away as if they were hit by a battering ram. Fortunately, the two Hundred Year Old Treant Defenders had extremely strong vitality. They were only heavily injured and didn't die immediately. They slowly got up and continued to follow their master … Yue Yang and Yue Bing had already rushed into the passage and immediately returned. Seeing this scene, they were stunned.
Yue Yang couldn't understand why the White Bull attacked the Treant Defenders. The Barbarian Cow Shadow also ran past in front of it, so why didn't it attack?
Time waits for no man. Seeing that the Treant Defenders weren't dead, Yue Yang didn't have time to study them. He immediately carried Yue Bing on his back and entered the Right Hall.
The Bloody Queen's speed was extremely fast. She had already started fighting with the Ox-head Warriors in the Right Hall.
The Barbarian Cow Shadow soon joined in.
Yue Yang carried Yue Bing on his back and stood in the middle of the chaotic battlefield. He stared dumbfoundedly at the wall of the Right Hall … It was a messy mural. It seemed like he had to completely restore this huge mural to the one on the left in order to activate the mechanism and obtain the treasure to clear the Trial.
"Oh my god, don't play with me like this!" Yue Yang sweated profusely.
Just now, he was only focused on finding the mechanism and the flaw. Although he had seen the mural in the Left Hall, he didn't pay attention to the details. He didn't pay special attention to some of the small details. If the mural was not complete, he wouldn't be able to activate the mechanism and wouldn't be able to get the treasure to clear the Trial. If there wasn't a time limit, Yue Yang could just run back and record it again. However, there was an hourglass on top of the mural.
Just now, when the Bloody Queen started fighting with the Ox-head Warriors, the hourglass slowly turned upside down and sand continuously fell down.
The hourglass definitely wouldn't last more than ten minutes.
If he wanted to run back and forth, observe the mural on the left carefully, and then run back to the messy puzzle on the right within ten minutes, it definitely wouldn't be enough.
If it was someone else, it would be even more impossible to succeed. This was because other people probably wouldn't even be able to kill all the Ox-head Warriors in ten minutes …
However, Yue Yang didn't want to give up.
"Bing Er, be careful. I'll complete the mural! The treasure to clear the Trial can only be obtained after this mural is completed. Stand further away, there might be traps later. " Yue Yang put Yue Bing down. He wasn't confident that he could complete the mural in ten minutes. Especially since there were many details that he didn't remember. Yue Yang only remembered that a group of Ox-head Warriors killed a Barbarian Bull. Now, it was broken into pieces. Moreover, Yue Yang tried it. This kind of puzzle could only move right, up and down. It couldn't move left, which was even more of a headache!
"Brother, do your best!" Yue Bing was full of confidence in Yue Yang.
"…" Yue Yang cursed the designer of this wall with all his might. He didn't know who was so wicked as to create such a thing to trick people.
Time passed by minute by minute.
There was no time to complete the mural puzzle.
Yue Yang wanted to summon a big hammer and smash the wall a few times, but he endured it in the end.
He reminded himself again and again to calm down. He had to calm down now, or else all his previous efforts would be wasted. The designer wanted the challenger to lose control of his emotions, waste time, and ultimately fail to clear the stage. Since the design was made, there must be a way to complete it, and there must be enough time to complete it.
It was impossible that there was no chance at all. There must be a way.
Yue Yang tried to sense it, but it was useless.
There was nothing special about this mural. It was just a restoration mechanism. There was no shortcut. He had to restore it 100% in order to solve it.
"Brother? Me, do you need my help? Let me help you too! " Yue Bing saw that her brother had stopped and quickly came over to comfort him. "Brother, we will definitely succeed. Let's think of a way together!"
"Okay." Yue Yang knew that Yue Bing wouldn't be of much help, but he smiled at her.
It would be impossible to continue to restore the mural from memory.
He had to find the most important key point … There must be a point that could be the supporting point of the entire reconstruction. According to the right, up and down direction, Yue Yang thought that there must be a point in the center of the mural. Only by finding it could he successfully connect to the rest of the mural. Among the 28 mural pieces, there must be one that was the most important point …
Which one was it?
Was it the one where the Barbarian Bull killed the Ox-head Warrior? Or was it the one where the Ox-head Warrior killed the Barbarian Bull in anger?
If he was wrong, he would fail the stage. What should he choose?
The sand in the hourglass fell quickly.
Time waited for no one.
Yue Yang felt that these two pieces had the highest possibility. He clenched his teeth and decided to give it a try.
Just as Yue Yang was about to jump up, he felt a piercing pain in his eyes. It was as if there was a dazzling light piercing through his closed eyelids and into his brain. It was as if a pillar of light had blasted a path through the darkness … In Yue Bing's eyes, her brother was bathed in golden light. Even if he covered his eyes with his hands, she could still see the piercingly cold light flashing through the gaps of his fingers. It was incomparably glorious, making people unable to look directly at it.
Yue Bing was overjoyed. Could it be that her brother had some kind of breakthrough at this time? Was it his [Concealment] Inherent Skill?
Did he level up because he was using his [Concealment] Inherent Skill to find the mural?
