Chapter 92: Chapter 92 - Ancient Ruins (part 5) END
Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing followed Senior Xie as she led them towards the place where the trial would be held. As they walked behind her, they soon found themselves walking towards the centre of the city, where a huge black pillar was standing with intricate runes engraved on the body of the pillar.
As they walked towards it, Senior Xie suddenly said,
"Though I don't have much information about the trials but at this stage, but don't think that this is the only 'Shenghuo Menkou' in the world."
Hearing her words, both Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing were confused and Mo Yuxin couldn't help but say,
"What do you mean by that, senior?"
"It means, 'Shenghuo Menkou' isn't one single place in the world. Well, at first it was only a single place in the world but after the war against the sons of destiny ended, the creators all decided to make four more 'Shenghuo Menkou' underground city for the four other continents in the world. As the main 'Shenghuo Menkou' is actually situated in the central continent.
After all, we don't know, which continent would end up being the birth place of one of these individuals." Senior Xie again revealed another shocking information.
Mo Yuxin suddenly asked,
"So, are all the five 'Shenghuo Menkou' place offers different trials and opportunities?"
Hearing Mo Yuxin's question, Senior Xie nodded lightly and said,
"Yes. All of them also have different conditions for entering the trials. You can say, the 'Shenghuo Menkou' located in the central continent is the last trial place and also the place with the strictest conditions for entering and also the place which would provide all the answers to your questions. Even the ones I can't say. Maybe you would even get to know some heavenly secrets."
Hearing her words, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing both nodded and they continued walking forward.
As they walked closer towards the center of the underground city, the strange black pillar became clearer and visible to Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing.
Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing both couldn't help but notice that the strange runes engraved on the pillar seems to be moving ever so slightly in such a strange way that it confuses people.
They knew at first glance that the material of the pillar was definitely not ordinary and maybe even a treasure in itself.
But what Mo Yuxin was more curious about was the position of the pillar.
Even though she couldn't fly in this place but it wasn't hard for her to get a rough location of the underground city just by seeing her buildings and she couldn't help but notice that this pillar is strangely in a very hidden position in this formation like structure.
Mo Yuxin had hunche that maybe this pillar acts as the eye of the formation as in the most vulnerable place as well as the position which binds the whole formation.
Retracting her gaze, Mo Yuxin suddenly became curious about the materials used in this city and couldn't help but ask,
"What strange materials are the buildings and floors made of, senior?"
Hearing her question, Senior Xie casually said,
"This is one the many researches done here by some genius inventors. The material is strange substance called 'Mythiril' which can be shaped in the way you want but also retaining some inherent features, such as flexibility and durability.
In another word, this material was also called 'indestructable' by the inventors. Though not entirely, the effect similar to it can be achieved by a capable blacksmith.
You know, a good weapon or armour made by this material would have at least a sky grade evaluation to as high as heaven grade."
Hearing her words, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing both couldn't help but be surprised.
They didn't know that materials in the whole underground city is actually so valuable!!
This whole place is like a whole mythiril mine!
If she can take all the materials here, she would probably not have to worry about money and resources for a long long time.
At this time, the three people finally came infront of the pillar and Senior Xie suddenly came to a stop.
"Here it is. I can't go any further but I hope you get the best out of this place. Though at your level, this place wouldn't be able to provide much benefit as it's after all, the 'Shenghuo Menkou' of the eastern Continent, the weakest. The creators didn't have much high hope for this continent but I've got a feeling that you two would prove them wrong."
After saying all this, Senior Xie didn't wait for their response and simply made a hand seal with her fingers in the air and the next second, the whole underground city vibrated from inside out.
The next second, suddenly the still black pillar exuded a strange green light and a weird space fluctuation occured on the space infront of the pillar.
"Whoooshh...
With a sizzling sound, the space was torn apart in two as a black hole like structure appeared in their eyes.
And the next second, Senior Xie's voice floated into their ears,
"Step into it." As she said that, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing couldn't help but turn to look at her and there was a visible smile of relief on her face and the next second, the figure of Senior Xie turned into tiny particles and disappeared in thin air and a soft voice came into their ears,
"Good luck."
All of this happened in an instant and Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing both weren't prepared for it and couldn't help but pause in confusion.
But time was ticking and the space fluctuation was getting more and more intense as if the next second, the structure would disappear and they would never get to the trials.
But it didn't take much time for Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing to come back to their senses and the next moment,
Both Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing looked at each and at the same time and without saying anything bowed towards the place where the senior Xie disappeared to show their respect.
After doing all these, Both of them took their hands and interwined their fingers and with a firm mind, walked towards the black hole and completely disappeared within it.
..
..
As they opened their eyes, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing suddenly found themselves in a strange room. Where there was nothing but the four walls.
They were a bit confused by the sight before them and couldn't help but glance at each other.
"This place is a bit strange." Su Yubing suddenly said to which Mo Yuxin nodded and said,
"Yeah. It feels a bit strange here."
As they were talking about the strangeness of this place, suddenly a white light flashes before their eyes as the ground started trembling a little and the next moment, a small and strange looking golem appeared infront of them.
"Welcome to the trials of the forebears.
I'm the trial assistant created by the creators to operate the trials for the future generation.
If you have any questions, please ask."
Suddenly seeing this strange scene, Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing momentarily paused but didn't find it surprising after encountering all the outrageous and shocking scenes today.
They carefully inspected the golem before them and found that it didn't have any humanlike intelligence and only gave answers to what they asked.
"What are the trials we will face?" Mo Yuxin asked the first question and also the most important one.
The golem made a creaking sound at first before it's mechanical voice came out.
"To the two inheritors, the trials are limited from qi condensation to golden core initial realm and are set up to a variety of challenges based on the most imminent needs of the inheritors.
They range from killing opponents to fighting against large number of beasts to solving intricate puzzles and etc.
The point of the this trial is to push the human limits of the inheritors, be it mentally, physically or even spiritually. Most of the trials are meant to even push you outside of the boundaries of these limitations and even though these trials won't help you improve in Cultivation level much but your whole person would go through a huge qualitative change.
These trials can have as little as one tests to as many as hundreds depending on the needs of the inheritors.
Each stage is unique and would help you grow and they also have various benefits and rewards after completion but I've been programmed not to tell you any of the inside details.
These trials are also highly dangerous and there's also a slight change of death in this trials. But that is why, these trials aren't forced upon the inheritors and you can quit anytime you want.
I will give you these two emrald tokens and the moment you crush it, you will be forcefully rejected out of the trials." As the golem said, he took out an emrald stone and gave each to Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing.
And the next moment, the golem opened a passage on the side of the wall and...
