Chapter 798: Chapter 347: Pressure
The master brother’s gaze was icy cold, quietly watching Xu Ran’s figure in the mirror, his mind filled with scenes from his own trials before.
The second brother saw a slight fluctuation in the master brother’s eyes and immediately asked.
"Master brother, is this trial really that difficult?"
Everyone knew that the master brother had fallen at this trial, but when he underwent the trial, he did not carefully observe the scene, only knowing that the master brother had failed at this trial, but what actually happened was unclear.
The second brother’s words suddenly opened up the master brother’s thoughts, and the distant scenes appeared one by one, as if he was once again in the trial.
"This trial..." the master brother paused, carefully recalling the details before speaking.
"This trial, if you say it’s simple, it’s simple; if you say it’s difficult, it’s difficult!"
These words left all the soul bodies puzzled, but they did not interrupt the master brother, letting him continue.
"These Five Elements Puppets do not become stronger with death and resurrection, but..."
As soon as these two words were uttered, all the soul bodies perked up their ears, eager to hear the important information to follow.
"The souls of these Five Elements Puppets seem to never run dry. No matter how many times you blow them up, in the next moment, they can recover as before!"
"With each revival, the energy in the background behind the Five Elements Puppets weakens a bit. To pass this trial, you need to completely deplete the energy in these five backgrounds!"
The master brother spoke out everything he knew in one breath, leaving all the soul bodies stunned.
The master brother possessed the Extreme Ice Body, with extremely rich spiritual qi, a powerful physique, and special abilities granted by the Extreme Ice Body.
He was the most talented figure of the Near Ancient Era, breaking the shackles of that era with his own strength, repairing the rift of the great path, and becoming the master brother of the Nine-Layered Giant Tower.
Such a person could not deplete the energy in the five backgrounds, which is unimaginable!!
"Master brother..."
The voice of the little junior sister rose beside him, somewhat embarrassed.
"How many times did you blow up those puppets back then?"
This was a question that all the soul bodies wanted to know.
From the master brother’s description, it was impossible for Xu Ran to pass this trial, even if he had great fortune.
In terms of fortune, the master brother was no less.
In terms of foundation, the master brother, after achieving Great Success with the Extreme Ice Body, was also taught by hidden great powers of the era.
One must know that those divine techniques of the time were created when the world first opened, much stronger than those of today.
There is such a huge contrast between the conditions of the two.
Xu Ran’s biggest trump card could be said to be the Innate Qi within him.
But with the Innate Qi banned, compared to the master brother’s foundation, he holds no advantage, and in their view, failure is inevitable.
The little junior sister wanted to know the master brother’s progress in clearing the trial, just to compare it with Xu Ran’s final progress to determine who was superior.
After all, in her eyes, the master brother was the strongest!!!
Regarding this question, the master brother remembered it vividly.
Back then, during the trial, he fought until his body was shattered, his spiritual qi exhausted, and even the source of the Extreme Ice Body was nearly depleted. If not for the ability of the special constitution to recover itself, he might have perished.
He remembered this failure deeply, never daring to forget, always pushing himself.
"Five Elements Puppets, altogether, were blown up 334,731 times!"
The energy consumed from the five backgrounds was only ten percent!!
The master brother’s words left all the soul bodies’ eyes wide open, staring at him in disbelief.
Three hundred and thirty-three thousand times!!!
The master brother, in this trial, blew up those puppets a total of 334,731 times!!
This number was indeed shocking!
But what was most unbelievable was that with so many explosions, the energy in the five backgrounds was only depleted by ten percent!
This meant that to truly pass the trial, one would need to blow them up 3,330,000 times!
This was a terrifying number for someone undergoing the trial!!
One must know that anyone chosen by the Nine-Layered Giant Tower to undergo trials had low cultivation levels at that time.
If using their current cultivation, passing these trials would not be so difficult.
But at that time, they were only in their teens or early twenties, with little foundation or high talent.
So to completely clear this trial, one could only say it was a fantasy!!
This kind of situation where everything is exhausted but ends in failure, none of the present soul bodies had experienced.
After all, none of these soul bodies had fully passed the Nine-Layered Giant Tower trial; they could be considered failures.
Of course, this is limited to the Nine-Layered Giant Tower.
...
At this moment.
In the Dueling Arena.
Xu Ran’s eyes glowed with a golden light, thoughtfully watching the Wood Attribute Puppet, then turned to look at the background behind, as an invisible aura slowly explored it.
The feedback from the information he probed made Xu Ran’s brows furrow.
"This background... the energy consumed is negligible!!"
