On The Path Of Cultivation To Become God

Chapter 106: Second Trial (3)

"Alright, everyone. Now that you've had ample time to get acquainted with your partners, the second trial will commence," Long Wei announced, floating at the center of the area.

His hands casually tucked behind his back, exuding an air of serenity. His gaze swept across all the participants, his eyes revealing an air of indifference.

The participants turned their gaze towards him, filled with eager anticipation, fully aware that the second Trial was about to commence.

Seeing that they were all ready, Long Wei continued, "The trial name is the Trial of Unsteady Inferno Ground.

In this trial, two teams will participate and must strive to avoid falling off the platform that you are all standing on."

Upon hearing the word "fall," all eyes turned towards the platform beneath them, becoming aware of the imminent peril that lay ahead.

As Long Wei uttered his words, the platform beneath their feet started to emit a subtle glow, while intricate flame patterns intricately etched themselves onto its surface.

The participants could feel the heat radiating from below, a reminder of the peril that awaited them if they fall.

Long Wei, in a commanding tone, provided an explanation, "The platforms will unpredictably shift and transition from green to red."

He continued, clarifying what will happen, "Once a block turns red, it will crack, causing anyone standing on it to plummet into the abyss below."

"Your goal is quite straightforward: navigate the shifting platform," Long Wei explained, gesturing with his hand. Suddenly, a radiant red ball materialized out of thin air and floated before the group.

"And retrieve this glowing object without tumbling off the platform," Long Wei continued, with a playful glint in his eyes.

The group listened intently, their anticipation growing as Long Wei described the dangers and difficulties they would face.

"This trial seems reminds me of Hex-A-Terrestrial," Chen Tian pondered, as he listened to Long Wei explain about the trial.

During his time on Earth, Chen Tian played in numerous games to ward off boredom. As a result, he had experienced various games that are of similar concept to this trial.

(A/N: If anyone played Fall Out Guys, it's a level when Player tries to not fall off the platform.)

"To achieve victory, teams have two options,

The first option is to get the glowing object that hovers in the center of the platform.

The second option is to eliminate one of the opposing teams, which in this context means causing them to fall from the platform.

Furthermore, engaging in combat and attacking other teams is allowed in this trial don't worry about killing someone as no one can die in this trial.

If any team members fall or die, the hole team will be considered eliminated!" Long Wei shocked the other players with this revelation.

That means if one of their team members falls or die by accident, the full team will be considered eliminated.

Everyone had a bad feeling about this rule as it increased the stakes and pressure on the team.

It wouldn't be a problem if two strong members were on the same team as it would increase their chances of survival.

However, if a team had one strong person and the other was weaker, it would be a huge disadvantage.

The team would have to be extremely cautious and make sure that no one made any mistakes or accidents that could cost them their elimination.

The pressure was now higher than ever, and the duo would have to work together if they wanted to pass this trial.

Chen Tian had no concerns about the upcoming trial since Yin Yun was far from being weak.

As a Half Step Meridian Opening Realm cultivator, she possessed considerable strength, relieving any worries about her abilities.

He was confident in Yin Yun's capability to hold her ground during the trial.

However, he also recognized the significance of exercising caution, understanding that anything could unfold in this unpredictable trial.

Long Wei snapped his fingers, instantly conjuring two small screens that materialized above the platform.

Both screens displayed the number 0, capturing the attention of the participants who eagerly focused their gaze upon them.

"These screens will represent which team will go first," Long Wei announced, his voice carrying across the area.

Then the number on the screen started to rotate fast like a roulette wheel, causing a blur of the numbers.

The participants watched as the screens spun rapidly, creating an atmosphere of excitement and suspense.

Everyone's heart raced, not hoping to see their team's number appear first.

No one wanted to go first because going first meant taking on the first pressure in this trial.

The tension in the air was palpable as the screens continued to spin, with each participant anxiously waiting for their team's number to appear.

As the screens continued to rotate at lightning speed, the tension in the air grew thicker.

Finally, with a sudden halt, one screen came to a stop, displaying the number 6. After that, the second screen also stopped and displayed the number 32.

"Huff." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief knowing that they wouldn't be the first to go.

"Now I can relax!" someone exclaimed, breaking the silence that had fallen over the place.

"Teams 6 and 32 will remain on the platform, while the rest of you are to leave the stage," he stated firmly, leaving no room for argument.

Long Wei's unexpected move caught everyone off guard.

"Ahh!"

"What's happening to my body..."

The participants started to react with surprise and confusion as their bodies began to feel strange.

The sudden movement from Long Wei had caught them off guard, and they were unsure of what was happening.

Some participants started to panic, wondering if something was wrong with their bodies.

All participants began to ascend into the air, and within moments, they were floating above the platform, a considerable distance away from it.

Once everyone had positioned themselves at a safe distance from the stage, the two teams vanished simultaneously, only to reappear on opposite ends, facing each other.

The glowing object was in the middle of the two teams, suspended in the air. It emitted a bright light that illuminated the surrounding area.

"With that, the second trial officially starts," Long Wei's voice boomed, echoing through the air.

Following his statement, the blocks on the platform illuminated in a vivid green glow.

The participants held their breath, their gaze fixed upon the shifting blocks beneath their feet.

A sense of electrifying anticipation filled the air as they readied themselves to demonstrate their skills in the forthcoming trial.
