Chapter 359



359 Chapter 359, the first stage

The two of them quickly entered the small town.

Compared to last time, the number of people in the small town had obviously increased by many times. The tea shops on both sides of the street in the town were filled with people.

Yang Tian and Zi Chen Yang Yu found a clean place on the side of the street and sat down.

The virtual world was really different. The ground was so clean that there wasn’t a speck of dust.

“What is the content of this reward activity?”After sitting down, Yang Tian turned his head and asked Zi Chen Yang Yu.

Zi Chen Yang Yu shook his head. “Every time such a large-scale activity is announced at the last moment. However, the content of each activity is different. The operation of this virtual world is rather ingenious.”

After saying this, Zi Chen and Yang Yu raised their hands, and two unopened bottles of fruit juice appeared in their hands. He handed one of the bottles to Yang Tian.

Yang Tian took it and opened the bottle cap with a ‘bang’. The two of them drank the fruit juice while waiting quietly.

After about half an hour, the preparations for the event finally began.

A teleportation array platform with a diameter of more than twenty meters appeared in the center of the town.

All the cultivators who had registered for the reward activity received a notification from their respective auxiliary devices and immediately entered the activity entrance through the teleportation array disk.

Moreover, the process of the activity would be displayed publicly.

In other words, cultivators who did not participate in the reward activity could watch the entire activity process like watching a three-dimensional movie if they stayed in the town or city.

“If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have accepted the challenge. My combat strength is just too high!”

As soon as the assistant prompted, someone cried out in grief.

People like this probably signed up to watch the show. They did not expect that the entire event would be displayed at the right time.

“Let’s Go! We will know the content of the event when we arrive.”After receiving the notification, Yang Tian and Zi Chen and Yang Yu stood up. Zi Chen and Yang Yu said excitedly at this time.

Many cultivators who participated in this kind of event knew that they wouldn’t receive any rewards in the end, but they still participated with great enthusiasm.

This was because the process was very exciting and exciting.

Those who had registered in the small town went up to the teleportation array platform in batches.

This large-scale teleportation array could teleport about fifty to sixty people at a time.

Yang Tian and Zi Chen Yang Yu did not squeeze in. They waited until most of the people in the town had left before they walked up to the teleportation platform together.

The process of teleportation was very simple. Just like in reality, a blue light flashed before their eyes. When the light disappeared, they would realize that they had changed places.

“Sir, there are a total of 75,601 participants in this reward activity. “The first place winner will receive a star warrior-level Beast Core; the second place winner will receive 50 million star crystals; the third place winner will receive 30 million star crystals; the fourth to tenth place winners will receive 10 million star crystals; the eleventh to 100th place winners will receive 2 million star crystals.”

As soon as he walked out from the large array platform, the auxiliary device immediately reminded Yang Tian of the rewards for this event.

Regarding the contents of the rewards, Zi Chen and Yang Yu were a little surprised, with a surprised tone, they said, “The rewards for this event are actually from the first place to the 100th place! In the past, for many large-scale events like this, only the first place would be rewarded.”

Yang Tian swept his gaze over the dense crowd around him, “It’s probably because of the large number of people! There are over 70,000 people! On average, each person has to spend 200,000 star crystals to register for this event. The total value is over 10 billion star crystals!”

When Yang Tian said this, he didn’t sigh in his heart. This virtual world was too f * cking money-making. It was even faster than robbing money!

However, considering that this virtual world was facing the entire universe, he was relieved.

Yang Tian and the others were currently in the col of a huge mountain. From their position, they couldn’t see the top of the mountain even if they looked up.

This was because the top of the mountain was already covered by clouds and mist.

The top of the mountain was densely covered with trees. There were no small paths leading up the mountain.

The terrain at the bottom of the col was very flat and the area was also very large. It would not be crowded even if it could accommodate 100,000 people. When Yang Tian and Zi Chen and Yang Yu were teleported here and walked down from the array platform, there were still many people who appeared on the array platform.

After about 10 minutes, the blue light on the array platform finally disappeared. Then, the array platform became more and more transparent and finally disappeared.

The auxiliary device prompted again, “The total number of people who signed up is 75,601. The actual number is 73,257.”

There were actually more than 2,000 people who had not arrived. Most likely, they had been delayed by some matters in the real world!

“Rumble…”

When the teleportation array disappeared, the ground began to shake violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Amidst the shaking, four caves with a diameter of more than twenty meters appeared on the precipitous mountain walls on all sides.

After these caves appeared, the shaking also stopped, the auxiliary device prompted, “The four caves lead to different places. The structure of the caves is a maze of the same shape, with powerful exotic beasts inside. If you rush out of the maze within the stipulated time, you will pass the test.

The reward points for killing the exotic beasts will be calculated according to the level of the exotic beasts. At the same time, after you break out of the maze, the remaining time will be calculated as a percentage, multiplied by the reward points obtained in the maze…”

As soon as the notification was sent out, Yang Tian understood the contents of this level and how to obtain the most reward points.

If one wanted to obtain high reward points, not only did one have to kill more exotic beasts, one also had to break out of the maze in the shortest time possible.

For example, in the maze, if one killed a exotic beast and obtained 10,000 reward points, after rushing out of the maze, there was still 50% of the time left. In that case, the final reward point for this round was 5,000 points.

“Yang Tian, I’m not going with you anymore. Let’s split up!”After the reminder from the auxiliary device, Zi Chen Yang Yu saw that many people had split up and were rushing towards the four caves. After saying this to Yang Tian, he turned around, they headed towards the entrance of the mountain wall on the right.

Yang Tian understood Zi Chen and Yang Yu’s thoughts. That was, Zi Chen and Yang Yu did not want to receive any help from Yang Tian during this activity.

Yang Tian smiled and ran towards the entrance of the cave on the left.

There were more than 70,000 people rushing towards the entrance. The number of people entering each cave was estimated to be more than 10,000 to 20,000 people.

The number wasn’t fixed because it was a random choice that depended on one’s own thoughts.

The reason why Yang Tian chose the left side was because he saw that there were fewer people entering the cave.

In this round, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage if he were to make the final move. After all, in a cave with fewer people, there would be fewer people fighting over the exotic beasts.

As soon as he entered the cave, Yang Tian dashed forward.

It looked like a naturally formed cave. There was a fishy smell in the air, and it was very humid.

The ceiling of the cave was inlaid with shiny beads, and the light was relatively bright.

“Roar!”

Yang Tian had just run for dozens of meters when he heard a howl coming from ahead.

Then, there was a series of ‘Peng Peng Peng Peng’sounds.

The person at the front should have encountered a strange beast.

“Chi Chi Chi…”

When they heard this sound, many of the people behind Yang Tian sped up and flew past Yang Tian, bringing along the ear-piercing sound of the wind.

Yang Tian was not in a hurry. He knew that in such a maze, running at the front might not necessarily give him the most reward points.

Apart from strength, sometimes it also depended on luck.

Wasn’t the maze plus hunting exotic beasts a test of one’s strength and luck?

Yang Tian ran for another fifty meters before the space in his eyes widened and a huge space appeared.

There were many small caves in this space. The roars of some exotic beasts and the sounds of fighting came from those small caves.

When Yang Tian arrived, many people stopped in this vast space and were hesitant.

Yang Tian glanced ahead and rushed into a small cave on the left without any hesitation.

It was a waste of time to stand still and hesitate.
