Chapter 85: Final trial

On the dot of the twelfth hour, the same golden light barrier wrapped around everyone and they were teleported once again.

When Lin Fan could see again, he found that this time he had been teleported to the entrance of a cave, but there was nothing special about this cave at all. But instead of over four thousand people here, there were only a total of just over twenty people.

Most of these people were the people that he had seen on the second floor and a few people who he hadn't seen.

Lin Fan was actually surprised to see that Boss Gao and Wang Da Dong were both here as well.

Actually, the two of them had forced their way to the sixth floor with sheer will alone, but they had been stuck right before the entrance to the seventh floor at the end.

What surprised them was that there was a moment when the pressure suddenly stopped right before the end of the trial, which they took advantage of to rush to the seventh floor, allowing them to pass this trial.

But before Lin Fan could even do anything, Huo Yan rushed over to Lin Fan first with his fists raised. As he rushed forward, flames gathered around his right fist before he punched out at Lin Fan.

When Lin Fan was about to raise his hand to guard against it, there was suddenly a golden barrier that appeared between them. It blocked Huo Yan's attack and pushed him back several meters.

When he flew out, there was the voice of the trial that rang out.

"Please do not attack each other during this transition period. You are free to attack each other once the trial starts."

Then it changed tones and spoke in an excited voice.

"Welcome to the final trial!"

"You will now be given twenty four hours to reach the depths of this cavern and seek out the inheritance. Whoever reaches the inheritance first will be the one who receives it. Everything is allowed inside the cavern, so please be careful. If you feel like you cannot remain in the trial any longer, please yell out "I quit" and you will be immediately teleported out."

"In five minutes, the participants will be allowed in based on their rankings. Every rank down, the participant will start a minute later."

"Since there is a special scenario where there are two people who hold first place together, they will be leaving at the same time and the person in third will leave two minutes after them."

Then there was silence once it had finished explaining the rules.

Huo Yan got up with a trace of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes staring at Lin Fan were still filled with the will to fight.

Still, Huo Yan knew that he wouldn't be able to fight him here, so he could only endure for now. Huo Yan no longer cared about this trial, the only thing on his mind was getting one fight with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan just ignored him and went over the Boss Gao and Wang Da Dong as he said, "You two should be careful, just drop out if you really have no choice. There's no point in dying here."

Boss Gao nodded, but he still said in a firm voice, "Got it, brother. But still, we can't fall behind you too far, can we?"

Wang Da Dong agreed with a smile.

Lin Fan didn't know what to say to this, but he was still touched by this. He raised his fist in front of him and waited.

The two of them saw this and raised their fists to touch his.

Angela on the side couldn't help giving a soft snort when she saw this.

Why were all men like this?



Five minutes later, Lin Fan and Angela were allowed to head into the cave first.

Being watched by everyone, the two of them slowly walked into the cave.

When they entered, they found that the cave was actually quite well lit with torches lined against the wall, so they didn't need to worry about being able to see in here.

They quickly moved through the cave and eventually came to a central room with nine different snake mouths surrounding them. Each snake mouth created another cave for them to head down.

Right in the center, there was a statue of a buddha with plaque at its feet, but the face of the buddha was actually the face of a demon.

The plaque read, "Nine paths leading to nine different realms of death. Choose carefully to suffer the least pain. Turn back now if you fear death. Perhaps a little kindness is the most important thing."

Lin Fan knit his brows when he read this, but still he couldn't find any clues on what to do next.

It seemed like the only way for him was to choose a path and head down it.

Looking around at the snake mouths, they all seemed like they were carved exactly the same. There wasn't even a centimeter difference between their fangs.

Since there was no way of telling which one was different, he had no choice but to use his secret move.

"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, catch, a, tiger, by, the, toe….."

Eventually he picked one of the tunnels and stuck by his decision as he began walking down that tunnel with Angela silently following behind him.

Once they went through the snake mouth and continued forward, what they didn't notice was all the snake mouths closing and suddenly changing.

The one snake mouth they picked suddenly moved up and the others shifted to the side to take that snake mouth's place, while also bringing out a new snake mouth.

It seemed like no matter what they picked, their trials may be the same…

A few minutes later, the third place person who was the sharp eyed gray cloaked person arrived in the room. This person didn't even pause at all as they walked down the central path. Once they entered the snake mouth, the same thing happened as it disappeared from the room.

Just like that, with each person that came, another snake mouth disappeared until the final person chose their path…



Back to Lin Fan and Angela, they continued down their path which was quite well lit from the various torches on the wall. It took them several minutes before they were able to reach the end of the tunnel.

The moment they came out, they found themselves in a large cage, but this cage was the size of a giant arena.

When they came to the sides of the cage, they found that they were in a cage that was on top of a giant pillar and they weren't able to see the bottom of this abyss at all.

Looking at the other side of the cage, they could see a giant griffin laying there, guarding the exit to this cage.

Based on the aura of the griffin, it was a beast that was in the Platinum Realm.

For most of the participants, this would indeed mean death since most of them were still in the Gold Realm.

Looking around the cage, they found that there was nothing else of note in this cage, so they had no choice but to fight the griffin.

Of course, it wasn't Angela's turn to fight since it would be a simple wave of the hand for her to take care of this Platinum Realm griffin.

Moreover, this would be Lin Fan's first fight since reaching the Platinum Realm, so he was actually looking forward to this fight.

He currently had three different masses of energy inside his dantian that represented three different laws, so he was anxious to try them out.

Plus he was looking forward to seeing what laws this griffin had and if he would be able to absorb it with his suction force.

Lin Fan slowly walked up towards the griffin while Angela moved to the side to watch.

When Lin Fan came close, the griffin sensed something and suddenly woke up. It narrowed its sharp eyes to look down at Lin Fan before giving a screech that was quite loud.

But that didn't impede Lin Fan at all, rather he began moving even faster as he brandished his fist.

The first thing he would be testing would be the law of power that he received from absorbing the Dragon Might.

The golden energy erupted from his fists as it created a dense covering over it, filling his fists with power.

Charging forward, Lin Fan sent out his strongest punch.
