Chapter 103: Completing The Trial… Unending Battles

On the side of the others, they were also facing beasts of similar levels of strength. However, Kevin was having a hard time facing the first beast. Since he was a long-distance fighter, although he had realized the issue, he had always found it difficult to engage in close combat battles. He soon fell into a disadvantage with the creature and was severely injured.

After successfully creating some distance between them, he took the time to shoot it down with his arrow. However, what he didn’t expect was that just soon after, the creature he had just killed would condense and form an even stronger version of itself. He was stunned and quickly created more distance between him and the creature.

Taking advantage of the fact that the creature hadn’t fully condensed, he shot it rapidly…

…

On Kathryn’s side, seeing that everyone was finally out of her sight, she no longer hid her strength… Her true strength…

Without any hesitation, her hair glowed with a silvery glow. Her verdant immortal veins pulsated slightly. In an instant, space split apart and crumbled. The creature didn’t even have time to react before it was crushed by the sheer force.

It quickly condensed once again, this time forming a stronger Dao Palace Realm creature. However, this time the creature didn’t even have the chance to fully condense before the same thing happened once more.

The third time, the creature was once again shredded by space… Her battle continued in a seemingly easy fashion.

…

Meanwhile, on Luka’s side, upon discovering that the creature was on the same level of strength as him, he quickly killed the beast, only for the same thing that had happened with the others to happen with him. Immediately, he destroyed the creature once more.

A few hours passed, and at this moment, the creature he was facing was finally at the Monarch Realm! Unwilling to endanger his life in the slightest, he consistently used his shadow cloning technique and only sneak attacked the creature. He knew that just a slash from the creature could send him to the afterlife, hence the need to be cautious.

…

A few hours had passed, and Kranos was now facing a creature at the Dao Palace Realm. The creature was extremely tough to deal with. Kranos was sent reeling back after being sent flying by the claw of the creature.

Stabilizing himself on his feet, he turned to the creature once again and used the Sunrise Sword Strike. Immediately, the creature was struck, but the attack only slightly injured it. The creature shook it off as though it was nothing and then slapped Kranos away once again.

However, this time Kranos was prepared. He faintly muttered in his heart.

“Pause!”

Immediately, the creature’s movements slowed to a pause… The creature’s face seemed to contain a hint of shock, but it didn’t last for long as Kranos quickly executed the Sunrise Sword and slashed it apart in the blink of an eye. Immediately, the initial stage Dao Palace Realm creature was destroyed.

Kranos sighed in relief, then stared at the location where the creature had died. A new one was slowly forming. “A mid-stage Dao Palace Realm creature?” Kranos guessed in his heart. With a faint sigh, his figure once again moved sharply towards the creature before it could fully form. He knew that emerging victorious in this fight would undoubtedly be very difficult!

“I wonder how the others are doing…” Kranos wondered silently as his Azure Sky Sword moved to strike at the creature. The half-formed head was immediately struck by Kranos’s blade. His sword moved downwards and struck at the creature’s half-formed leg; immediately, the leg was shattered by the strength of the attack.

But the creature continued condensing despite Kranos’ continuous destruction. Seeing that everything was pointless, Kranos sighed then quickly stepped back. If it was in a real battle, when the opponent needed to condense its form, he would have continued attacking, not giving it a chance to form, but he knew that this was a trial where they would be judged based on the number of creatures they had killed.

Staring from the distance, Kranos watched as the creature slowly formed, and in an instant, it had taken shape! The creature stared at him for a few seconds and moved. This time, its visage blurred. Kranos was barely able to catch a glimpse of its attack. Helpless, he could only raise his sword to block the claw attack.

However, the force of the attack was too strong. With a bang, he was sent flying. He coughed out a mouthful of air. “This is quite a tough battle,” Kranos frowned inwardly. Fighting against such a creature was undoubtedly very difficult; if it wasn’t for the unique abilities he possessed, he didn’t think he would have lasted for so long!

Kranos struggled for a bit to stand up. However, just as he did, he noticed that the creature had appeared in front of him once again. This time, its claw was aiming for his neck. Without panicking, he quickly paused time and restricted the creature. His sword moved rapidly, aiming to destroy the creature in one swift move, just like the last time.

Bang!

However, just as he struck, he realized that the creature’s body toughness was more than he imagined. “It seems this method will not be feasible,” Kranos sighed inwardly, then used the time he had left to escape the direction of the creature’s attack.

Their battle continued with neither side emerging victorious for a few hours. It wasn’t until Kranos spotted a weakness of the creature by chance that he was able to kill the creature. Seeing the new creature condensing once more, Kranos frowned; he knew that he couldn’t advance further. Forcefully advancing any further would only lead to death.

Kranos sighed then shouted aloud, “I quit!” He didn’t know if the mysterious space could hear him, or if that was the way to go about it, but he felt that it was worth giving it a try.

Thankfully, soon after he spoke, the mysterious voice resounded once again, “Congratulations on becoming a disciple of the Sovereign Star Sect. You are promoted to a core disciple. The inheritance trial is over, and you may receive your inheritance.”

The same voice resounded in the minds of Kathryn and the others. Immediately, an array of cultivation techniques, skills, information, and so on appeared in front of them, causing them to be shocked.

Kranos’ eyes widened in shock as he stared at everything ahead of him.
