Chapter 932: Test of strength!

Chapter 927 First trial: Test of strength!

As the darkness around him gradually receded, Shun Long found himself at the heart of a vast, yet completely empty coliseum. The ancient coliseum seemed to be fully made of stone and spanned for miles and miles on end, and yet aside from the sole azure-robed young man standing desolately at its very center, there didn’t seem to be a single other soul in sight.

Other than the thousands upon thousands of exquisitely crafted stone seats filling the spectator stands or the countless grains of sand littering the ground, there didn’t seem to be anything else in this place either…

No, that was wrong. After taking a quick look around him, Shun Long quickly noticed an anomaly. The ancient coliseum may have been devoid of any living beings, but there was something peculiar that stood out, immediately attracting his attention.

Just a few meters away from him, a small obsidian obelisk was erected in the center of the arena, its pointy edge facing the sky.

The obsidian obelisk wasn’t overly big, just a little more than a single meter in height, and yet its shiny luster painted a sharp contrast to its abandoned surroundings, quickly drawing Shun Long’s attention.

”Is that an appraisal obelisk?” Shun Long’s voice was akin to a whisper, mumbling as he looked at the black obelisk just a few meters away from him.

However, within the desolate coliseum, even that single whisper sounded eerie and out of place as it echoed throughout the ancient arena.

Meanwhile, inside the foggy space in the ‘Stone of Time’, Little Black opened his bright azure eyes and studied the obsidian obelisk in silence. Just like his master, the black dragon didn’t seem taken aback by the sudden turn of events.

Of course, Little Black was well aware of how those ‘immortal sects’ tested their new disciples so something like that was only natural. Using an appraisal obelisk before the trials began was commonplace for those powerful sects who wanted to evaluate their disciples’ achievements.

Nodding his head, the black dragon examined the surface of the obelisk for a couple of minutes before he nodded his head and answered calmly

”Master is right. That’s a low-grade appraisal obelisk. Although this one is only low-grade and cannot truly judge a person’s talent based on their bone age, physique, cultivation stage, and cultivation technique, it’s still enough to evaluate mere Dao Kings and Dao Emperors while they undergo their tests.”

Shun Long nodded his head and after a moment of brief contemplation, he walked towards the obelisk.

Eight simple words were engraved on its black onyx-like surface, looking like they were carved using a sword instead of a brush. The words were simple and didn’t hide any profound meaning within them, but Shun Long could still tell that each letter was sharp and forceful, like they were left there by the sword of a true sword expert!

‘Use your qi to engrave your name here’

A moment later, Shun Long’s fingers moved swiftly as he used his qi to inscribe two more characters on the black obelisk’s surface;

Shun Long.

The obelisk’s surface was slightly cold to the touch, as if the entire monolith was covered in a thin layer of ice. However, after absorbing Shun Long’s qi, a glowing silver light gradually enveloped the black obelisk, before abruptly vanishing from the ancient arena!

Following the obelisk’s disappearance, a change began to take place in the ancient coliseum as well.

In the next moment, Shun Long could feel the qi in the air around him swirl and tremble, before it began to coalesce into the shape of a large, hideous abomination!

A bony, cadaverous monster that resembled a lizard began to take shape a few meters away from Shun Long, starting from its gigantic head and its beady-like eyes that were brimming with malice before moving towards its body.

The gaunt monster was extremely thin, almost emaciated, but contrary to its feeble and frail appearance, its long limbs were brimming with power. The long, sharp claws on its four legs resembled sharpened blades, while its rows of pointy fangs were capable of shattering even peak gold-grade weapons with a single bite!

Shun Long only needed a glance to recognize this peak rank 6 magic beast in front of him; After all, it was among the strongest rare-grade magic beasts, as well as the most dangerous ones, the ‘Ravenous Earth lizard’!

At the same time that the lizard’s body was forming, a similar scene was taking place at the other end of the arena.

The figure of a small, four-winged bird surrounded by crimson lightning began to take shape on the other side, starting from its sharp beak before moving towards the rest of its body!

Although the bird was extremely small for a magic beast, not much larger than an eagle, the qi it took to form its diminutive body wasn’t any less than the ‘Ravenous Earth lizard’s’!

No, in fact, it was slightly more than that.

Moments later, its entire body was formed, and the feeling of danger the bird radiated wasn’t any lower than that of the massive lizard. Its sharp beak could easily clash with rank 3 gold-grade weapons while its sharp talons could slash even the sturdiest of gold-grade armors with a single strike!

However, Shun Long was aware, that just like the ‘Ravenous Earth lizard’, this bird’s most dangerous trait wasn’t its physical body that could even clash with peak sixth-stage body refiners. Instead, it was the sparks of crimson lightning that were dangerously crackling around its 4 red-colored wings and were ready to explode at any moment.

That was why the bird was called the ‘Red Lightning sparrow’.

Of course, a beast like the ‘Blood Devouring ape’ that Shun Long had faced on his way to the ‘Heavenly Tower’ couldn’t possibly be compared to either the ‘Ravenous Earth lizard’ or the ‘Red Lightning sparrow’!

The latter were both true, bonafide rare-grade magic beasts that could take the lives of even peak-stage Dao Kings!
