Chapter 1356 - 1356: Different

Long Chen held the King's Sword firmly in his hand, running towards the five enemies that had appeared before him in the trial.

His figure kept flickering as he Teleported to reach the enemies faster.

The fire cultivators also started running towards Long Chen, three targeting him while the other two tried to get to the statue to break it.

The cultivator who was carrying a spear tossed it towards the statue in the back.

At the same time, another cultivator swung his hammer at Long Chen's head.

The Spirit Sword came flying, attacking the flying spear, affecting its trajectory after hitting it. The spear's directions changed slightly as it missed the statue by a hair's breadth.

"You'll have to do better than that," Long Chen raised his right hand to block the hammer with his sword. Despite that, he was forced back one step.

He disappeared only to appear behind the cultivation before thrusting his Sword inside the body of the cultivator.

Another beam of light came towards him; however, he disappeared again.

Through his Divine Sense, he was keeping an eye on his surroundings. As soon as he noticed another cultivation reaching the statue, he disappeared and appeared in the sky.

The beam of energy hit the cultivation with the hammer, which was already stabbed by Long Chen. It wounded him even more than he was already wounded. His body disappeared.

Long Chen looked towards the cultivator with the heavy Sword who had almost reached the statue.

The other three cultivators were being kept in the bay in the meantime by the spirit sword.

"Not so fast!" Long Chen muttered, raising his sword above his head. He brought it slashing down.

There was excess shine in the sword, but there was something else. It seemed like an invisible attack had left the Sword. The only clue about that attack happened to be the spatial cracks that were developing in the surrounding area.

He had used one of his special skills, which he had created by merging shadow transformation and the law of space which was invisible. Still, because of its incredible power, it was creating spatial cracks in the surrounding, which made him a little less stealthy.

The cultivator swung his sword towards the statue, almost ending Long Chen's run in the trial, however before the sword could hit the statue, his hand stopped.

The sword dropped to the ground. A vertical slash appeared in the body of the cultivation, starting from his head. His body was split into two parts, one landing to the left while the other landing to the right of the statue.

The Spirit Sword was trying its best to hold the enemies at bay, but even it wasn't succeeding against three enemies at once. Instead, the three cultivators split up.

Amongst the three cultivators that were left, one started engaging the sword. The second ran towards the statue while the third looked for Long Chen.

"Looking for me?" Long Chen's voice fell in the third cultivator's ears.

The cultivator looked up, finding a sharp sword coming towards him. The sword was already close to his head. As he had raised his hand in the last moment, the sword stabbed the middle of his face, going all the way down to his stomach.

Long Chen pulled the sword out before teleporting to the second cultivator, who had almost reached the stone statue.

Slash!

His sword came slashing with the wind and took the head of the second cultivator, which fell in the distance, far away from his body.

The body also disappeared, leaving only one cultivator behind.

"And then there remained one," Long Chen muttered, smiling.

He teleported behind the last cultivator, taking him out easily.

Long Chen stretched his arms, finding the entire field clear.

"That was much easier than expected," Long Chen muttered. "He did say that they would be as strong as me, but it looked like he was talking about cultivation. They didn't use any skills, and they didn't have any laws either. So it would be wrong to say that they had the same strength level as me."

"If it goes on like this, I might be able to pass this trial," Long Chen muttered.

...

The old man who had just talked to Long Chen and explained the rules to him was standing high in the sky, looking down at him.

"Space and darkness... Pretty talented kid. He was also able to merge the two. Let's see how far he can go and if he can really..."

...

Long Chen walked back to the statue with the Spirit Sword following after him. He started waiting for the next wave. Since he wasn't even tired at all, he didn't bother resting.

Thum! Thum!

"Huh?"

He felt the ground vibrate. He looked behind him, stunned to see seven giants standing in the back. None of the giants had any weapons at all. They were all bare handed, but they were so big... It was the first time Long Chen had seen such massive people.

The giants appeared to be at least fifty feet tall with body proportions of similar manner. Their chubby stomach was the most defining feature about them, which was twice their waist size.

It was so big that he was sure that they couldn't even see their toes. They were also wearing a skirt made of animal fur, from what he could guess.

Roarr!

Suddenly, a roar came from behind. Long Chen turned back to find three black tigers that were also giants. They were smaller than the giants, but they were still twenty feet tall. Two sharp teeth were coming out of their mouth that were ten feet long in itself.

Long Chen scratched the back of his head, sighing. It looks like the Spirit Sword was going to be useless this time in distraction.

The giants weren't going to be stopped by such a small sword which wasn't strong enough either.

"Three in the front and five in the back. How come the difficulty increased so suddenly? I thought the same cultivators were going to appear again with slightly stronger cultivation, but this..."

For a moment, the fleeting thought of using the Sword of Time crossed his head as well.

"No. Credits I'll get don't outweigh the risks of bringing it out," he muttered, shaking his head as he stood up.

His body started floating in the sky as he flew up to have a better view of both sides.

The Giants started walking towards the statue.. Even though the giants were taking calm steps, each of their steps covered so much land that it was only a matter of time before they could reach the statue in the middle.
