Chapter 460: Earthbound Yaksha (1/3)
Three minutes!
A very long three minutes!
An excruciating three minutes!
To Field Marshal Awesomo, that was the most painful three minutes of his life.
That was the first time he had a true understanding how important air was to life. It was also the first time he realized how excruciating it was to not be able to breathe.
But, apparently, all of that was too late. Even though he used all his strength, it was insufficient to break the spatial barrier. The silver-haired demoness’s magic was redoubtable and she seemed to have undying will. All of that made him feel a deep sense of despair.
Slowly, his consciousness began to fade away. He knew that the moment he fainted, it would be the end of him. His long life that had spanned ten thousand years would finally come to a close.
He had lived for too long and had long forgotten death. But at that moment, he finally recalled of the horror of being at the mercy of Death.
At the cost of being trapped in the Nine Revolutions Transcendental World, he had obtained near eternal life, so he did not want to die, no matter the cost!
But the more he resisted death, the more he feared it. Fear made Field Marshal Awesomo begin to wail hysterically. However, without any air to propagate sound, he could not even voice it out.
The remaining essence of his life was beginning to flow away like sand.
Extreme fear made him feel extreme hate.
He hated the Daoist that forced him into the despairing situation. He hated that azure-dressed girl who had beaten him so badly that he could not fight back. He hated that silver-haired demoness that enclosed his hope in a separate dimension!
At the same time, he hated that Excellency that had sealed his strength ‘to make the game more interesting’.
He felt hate, but he had a tiny shred of an extravagant wish.
Would that Excellency save him?
Even though he was already a failed toy, would the Excellency have a guilty conscience considering how he had acted dutifully for ten thousand years?
No, how could the Excellency have any heart?
Extravagant hopes and despair interweaved in his heart as his consciousness and hope slowly extinguished as he struggled helplessly.
…
“Is it finally going to end?”
Liu Yu wiped the cold sweat from his nervous face. Field Marshal Awesomo was already sprawled on the ground and did not even have the strength to move. Everything had happened as Liu Yu planned, but he did not dare to heave a sigh of relief.
They could not relax until Shi Xiaobai was rescued and Field Marshal Awesomo was completely dead.
However, the most worrisome matters typically were the easiest to happen.
Just as Field Marshal Awesomo was about to close his eyes, a black shadow descended from the sky. A black beam with an ice-cold luster flashed across like a steel string, cleaving the solid spatial barrier into two instantly. Field Marshal Awesomo’s body was also taken out of the vacuum zone at the next moment.
The sudden turn of events gave the nervous group a shock. They immediately cast their gazes over.
The black shadow was extremely fast. In a few seconds, it had brought Field Marshal Awesomo to the boundary of the basin. When it stopped, Field Marshal Awesomo, who had been thrown behind it, was gasping for the air that he had yearned for. It was like a dried fish had finally returned to the ocean.
On second look, the black shadow looked truly terrifying. It was taller and bigger in size than Field Marshal Awesomo. Its hair was burning with green flames and it was dozens of feet tall. It was burning like a candle.

One of its eyes was at the top of its head, and another was found on its chin. They were of different shapes, with some triangular and some crescent-shaped.
Its nose had nostrils like the eyes of a snail. They protruded and retracted from time to time, with one facing to the sky and one facing to the ground.
One of its ears grew in front while another grew behind. Their shapes were horrifying.
Its skin exuded a strange grayness, making it appear very striking in daytime. Its right hand held a samurai sword that was completely black as it exuded an appalling aura.
Everyone turned alert. From the way it had slashed apart the spatial barrier in one strike and the speed it demonstrated, the ugly monster was definitely very powerful.
“Who are you?” Liu Yu questioned very directly.
“Thou shalt knoweth me as Earthbound Yaksha.”
The ugly monster did not plan on concealing his identity at all. With a hoarse and piercing voice, it said, “Thou shalt knoweth that standing before thee is the Level Lord of the eighth level who was ordered to save this trash, and slaughter thee. Thou shalt knoweth that my strength is at maximum capacity. There is no need for thee to struggle.”
Everyone was alarmed.
The ugly monster was actually the Level Lord of the eighth level, named Earthbound Yaksha?
How did the eighth level’s Level Lord come to the world of the seventh level? Wasn’t this in violation of the assessment program’s defined rules?
But no, if the mastermind behind this was the assessment program, it was only natural that it could change it as it wished.
And from the power it revealed, it did not seem to be bluffing.
Could it be as it said that it was the Level Lord at full strength?
If that was the case, wouldn’t the sudden appearance of this character be too troublesome!?
Everyone turned secretly anxious as they clenched the weapons in their hands to prepare for battle.
“Hahaha…has the Excellency finally decided to end this meaningless game?”
Field Marshal Awesomo laughed maniacally. He felt more hateful after surviving the calamity. However, he first coldly looked at Earthbound Yaksha that had termed him ‘this trash’. He said in a deep voice, “You deliberately waited till This Field Marshal was about to die before you appeared. Was it the Excellency’s intentions or yours?”
Earthbound Yaksha turned its head with a stare and said calmly, “Obviously it is not of mine own intention. If ‘t be true not, thine complete death would mark the appearance of me. To what end is there to keepeth trash like thee?”
Field Marshal Awesomo thundered angrily, “Fool, if This Field Marshal was at his full strength, you wouldn’t be able to put up a fight at all!”
Earthbound Yaksha chuckled coldly as it said, “Thou art living in dreams.”
Field Marshal Awesomo stared angrily at the Yaksha’s back, but he knew that he needed its protection. It went to great effort to snuff out his flames of anger, but immediately directed the hatred away. He said in a deep voice, “Earthbound Yaksha, do not harm those humans. They are not to die so easily. This Field Marshal will let them have a taste of the agony of hell! Count it as if This Field Marshal owes you one.”
Earthbound Yaksha gave Field Marshal Awesomo a penetrating look and said with a chuckle, “What thou owe is useless, but better than nothing it is not. The group shalt art spared as thee please.”
The two Level Lords exchanged biting remarks as though there was no one else. They did not think anything of the seven trial-takers present.
Sunless finally lost her patience. Although she could directly sense that overwhelming power exuded by the Earthbound Yaksha was much higher than Field Marshal Awesomo, she knew she could not act hastily. Only by cooperating with the rest would their chances of victory be higher. However, she really could not wait any longer.
The moment she thought of Shi Xiaobai in danger, she did not wish to wait another second longer.
When her calmness reached its limit, her reason collapsed as a result. With sword clenched, Sunless took a step forward.
But at that moment, a voice that had been silent for a long while suddenly sounded.
“Sunless, wait a moment first.”
