In the Blackstone Labyrinth, the starting point was only north and south. There were more and more paths towards the end, and it was very easy for trainees to get lost.
Of course, no matter how many paths there were, the correct destination would always be the final destination.
That was under the Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree.
Only the lucky ones who could reach the Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree could obtain the Heart of the Oak Tree.
However, this' Heart of the Oak Tree ', which could increase the abilities of plant-type beasts, was a very unpopular reward compared to the' Earth Crystal ',' Beast Soul ',' Eyes of Truth 'and so on. Normal people were not willing to experience the Blackstone Labyrinth, which was not very helpful to their own beasts. Unless there was someone like Yue Bing, whose Guardian Beast was a plant-type beast, very few people would develop plant-type beasts. However, even so, for thousands of years, who knew how many plant-type trainees had come to this Blackstone Labyrinth. Just the guiding marks that were cut on the blackstone were enough to make people dizzy …
Yue Yang was a little speechless. In the Blackstone Labyrinth, there were also restrictions.
He still could not make a move.
Only one day had passed. If he summoned the Barbarian Cow Shadow, then he would not be able to summon the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice. On the other hand, if he summoned the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice, then the Barbarian Cow Shadow could only wait until tomorrow.
Luckily, there was Hui Tai Lang who did not have a contract.
"The three of you form a team. If you find Yue Bing first, then you must protect her safety. I am willing to pay extra. If you reach the end first and haven't found Yue Bing, then go out and wait for me at the Warrior's Guild. " Yue Yang separated from Ye Kong, Li Qie and Li Ge. He chose to go south, while Ye Kong and the other two went north, looking for Yue Bing who had already entered for two days.
Ye Kong originally wanted Li Ge to stay by Yue Yang's side to protect him, but thinking that he was safe and sound even after entering the Aries Temple, he stopped himself.
Furthermore, Yue Yang still had a Bronze-ranked Level 4 Hui Tai Lang.
Although there were many monsters in the Blackstone Labyrinth, most of them were Level 1 or 2, and even Level 3. There were no monsters that were too strong, so there was no danger to their lives.
"If you're lost, use the Teleportation Scroll!" Yue Yang told Ye Kong and the others that although the Teleportation Scroll was expensive at 1 Gold Coin, he still prepared one for everyone.
"Yes." Hearing this, Ye Kong agreed. He felt a little nervous in his heart. The one who would really get lost was probably this Yue Clan's Third Young Master who had never left home before.
"Don't worry, I won't have any problems walking through the maze." Yue Yang knew what Ye Kong and the others were worried about and smiled.
He had the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice, so finding the fork in the maze was no problem at all.
Even without the five little mice, Yue Yang had a good sense of direction. As long as he walked through it once, he would be able to remember 70% to 80% of the road, and this was before he transmigrated. After transmigrating to this world and cultivating the [Innate] Invisible Sword Qi, Yue Yang felt that his intelligence, perception, and senses had all improved tremendously. In his heart, he had an eidetic memory that allowed him to draw inferences about other cases from one instance. Therefore, he was not worried that he would get lost. Taking ten thousand steps back, he still had the Level 2 [Divine Vision] Inherent Skill, which would more or less help him in identifying the right path.
Yue Yang walked very quickly. He released the five little mechanical mice and let them search and advance.
With them exploring the surroundings, Yue Yang had no possibility of getting lost. He would not even fall for the wrong directions given by those who had ulterior motives, and would directly choose the most correct route to advance.
What made him feel slightly regretful was that the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice did not find Yue Bing's scent or any traces that she had left behind.
Just now at the first fork, Yue Yang could not summon the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice in front of Ye Kong and the others, and could only rely on his intuition to choose the south. Now it seemed that Yue Bing might have gone north, and he was the opposite of her.
Otherwise, the Quintet Seeking Golden Mice had searched for so long, there was no reason why they could not find any traces that she had left behind.
Thinking of this, Yue Yang hurriedly increased his speed and prepared to wait for Yue Bing in front of the Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree to give her a surprise.
The monsters in the Blackstone Labyrinth were mostly insect-type or plant-type. It was common to see large groups of low-level Demon Insects swarming out to attack people. Although their attack power was very weak, they looked very disgusting and strange. Sometimes, they would be paired with plant-type monsters like Man-eating Tiger Thorn, Corpse-eating Earth King Flower and Ghost Cage Man-catching Grass, which were also quite a headache. Occasionally, Level 2 Green Snakes, Grass Snakes, Flower Snakes, Marsh Snakes, Blue-tongued Lizards, and Running Dreadclaw Lizards could be seen pouncing out from the darkness to ambush Yue Yang who was passing by.
However, even if there was no Hui Tai Lang, Yue Yang could still turn a blind eye to these beasts that were Level 2 and below.
Although he could not personally take action, with his Innate Realm skills, he could avoid all dangers.
Hui Tai Lang was now awesome.
The Barbarian Cow Shadow did not come out and Little Wen Li was resting, so it was only Hui Tai Lang who majestically bullied the little insects, snakes and lizards, torturing them to its heart's content.
Yue Yang could now see that the main purpose of this Blackstone Labyrinth was not to obtain the 'Heart of the Oak Tree'. The real purpose was to let the trainees receive special training from plant-type beasts throughout the whole trial.
There were many places that required the use of plant-type beasts in order to clear the trial easily.
Otherwise, the trainees would have to be like Yue Yang, who had a Bronze-ranked Level 4 Hui Tai Lang and forcefully charge through the trial.
For a grimoire contractor like Yue Bing, if they were to charge through the trials in the Blackstone Labyrinth and fight non-stop, they should be able to improve a lot. There were many battles that were targeted at plant-type beasts. For example, there were some ice or fire type traps that could completely restrain plant-type beasts. If the trainee's control was not good enough, they would not be able to pass through … This kind of most basic trial ground also had the effect of cultivating team spirit. There were a few dangerous areas that required teamwork in order to be easier to pass through. If they were to charge through the trials alone, they would need to put in ten times the effort.
What surprised Yue Yang the most was that this Blackstone Labyrinth completely forbade flying beasts.
Maybe it was because plant-type beasts did not have the ability to fly, but the entire Blackstone Labyrinth had the power to forbid flying. Sometimes, Yue Yang wanted to jump onto the tall Blackstone Boulder and look into the distance to look for Yue Bing. However, he found that he could not jump smoothly, and the height he could jump was also much lower than outside.
Six hours later, Yue Yang completed the trial road that normal trainees would need at least three days to complete. He arrived at the foot of the Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree that was protected by almost a hundred Dryad Guards.
At first, Yue Yang thought that this tree had an old man's face full of wrinkles, a crooked nose, and a mouth that could speak. However, that was not the case at all. Other than the fact that this tree was so huge that even ten people couldn't wrap their arms around it, it was filled with a mysterious life energy. There was a kind of spiritual glow hidden in the crown of the tree. Yue Yang finally understood that the Heart of the Oak Tree was not a wooden heart, but a life energy that was added to the body of a plant-type beast. When the trainee accepted the mission, the psychic Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree would give the trainee a reward according to the level of the completed mission.
In front of the Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree, there was a crystal pillar that emitted a faint white light.
Its base was entwined with tentacles of tree roots. It looked like it was connected to the Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree. The Ten Thousand Year Ancient Oak Tree would give the trainee the energy reward of the 'Heart of the Oak Tree' according to the level of the mission inscribed on the crystal pillar.
Yue Yang looked at it and found that the level one mission was the easiest. It only needed to identify a hundred plant seeds in the forest.
The level two mission was to collect a hundred types of mushrooms in the Mushroom Forest. Of course, these mushrooms couldn't be picked up randomly. One had to ask those mushroom beasts that could spit spores.
The level three mission was to collect a hundred red apples from the apple orchard where the Fanged Spider and the Spotted Tree Snake appeared. The level four mission was to kill ten Marsh Crocodiles from the Black Swamp. Every Marsh Crocodile was at least a Level Three Beast … If the trainee had the confidence, he could go to the Demon's Blood Swamp and touch the Nine-headed Monsters there. He didn't know how many Nine-headed Monsters there were, but every Nine-headed Monster was at least a Bronze-ranked Level Seven terrifying beast. This mission only required the trainee to kill one Nine-headed Monster. Furthermore, the reward was the heaviest, a Thousand Year Old 'Heart of the Oak Tree'.
"Should I wait here for Yue Bing, or should I test the Nine-headed Monster's strength first?" Yue Yang hesitated a little. In the end, he took out a gold coin.
The fate of the Nine-headed Monster would be decided by the gold coin.
If it was heads, he would temporarily let it go and wait for Yue Bing to come. If it was tails, he would go and chop it.
The gold coin was tossed up high …
