Chapter 440: The second stage (1/2)
Chapter 440: The second stage
This virtual Trial Field was Meng Yingying and Nangong Yun’s idea.They were inspired by the Central State’s Trial Tower, but the difference with the Trial Tower was that although the Trial Tower was not too dangerous, there was still the chance of death and injury.
This was a hard to avoid matter because no matter how complete the preventative measure was, it was impossible to completely avoid being injured in a real fight.
Miracle City’s virtual Trial Field was different, it was a pure spiritual world, so it was completely harmless.Not to mention the fact it was expensive to make, Miracle Commerce used a large amount of technology to create it, making it a challenging and fun stage clearing game, allowing the Trial Field to become the recreation of experts.This was where its charm existed.
The Trial Field was currently made like this and like the advertisement said, as long as the correct method was used, a 1st True Spirit Layer Cultivator could clear all the stages.The problem was, would the stages Chu Tian made be easy to pass?
There was a total of ten stages.
There were several dozen random scenarios in the first stage.
The challengers each day would trigger one of the stages.The one chief Arnold was in was the challenge he had the experience of failing several times in.The environment inside was different, if one challenged it the next day, it would change.
Arnold knew the rules of the game, so he was even more anxious to pass the first stage, therefore he borrowed several source stones from his clansmen to attempt the challenge several times.After failing it so many times, Arnold finally found the only correct method.
Arnold entered the Trial Field.
He used the experience from failing several times to correctly break the statues in the right order one by one before finally taking care of the large amount of ghosts.
This time didn’t surpass his expectations.
The ghosts did not recover again.
The first stage had finally been completed.
“Success!”
“I succeeded!”
Arnold roared in wild joy as he looked at the gate of light that appeared in the large hall.He knew that this was the passage to the second stage.
Arnold calmed his mind before entering the second stage.
This was a strange environment, with the surroundings being completely empty, like it was a pure void.His feet were standing on a black mirror and although it reflected light, he could not see a single thing.
What kind of challenge would it be this time?
Arnold looked around in a puzzled manner.The mirror ground in front of him had white ripples appear, like a stone falling into water, immediately filling the ground with light waves that progressively moved out.Arnold did not know what was happening, but he smelled a different scent and instinctively moved back a bit.
From the center of the ripples, there was a black crystal sculpture that appeared.This sculpture first changed into liquid before condensing itself again. First the edges formed before it too a figure.When Arnold saw the appearance of the other side, he couldn’t help being shocked.
This……
Isn’t this himself?
This was a figure that looked exactly like Arnold.
But Arnold was very clear that this was definitely not a normal reflection because in the eyes of the other side, he could only see coldness.This was a calm expression that did not have any emotions.
Arnold instantly understood that the second stage was to defeat himself.
This was a bit interesting!
Arnold had fought with countless experts from the forest, but he had never fought himself before.He never thought that he would be able to experience fighting himself in a place like this. He released a vigorous energy with a low roar and instantly charged out with a shockwave.
The Minotaur’s most common attack was their charge!
The Minotaurs relied on their powerful bodies and strong spirit energy to destroy the enemy’s defenses.Although this straight charge was not a flashy attack, there was no doubt of its destructive might.
The mirror image seemed to expect this attack and immediately dodged the attack before sending Arnold flying with an axe glow attack.
Arnold was shocked to find a terrifying problem.
This mirror image was not just like him, it also understood him very deeply.Whether it was his strength, his cultivation technique, or his skills, both sides were exactly the same.However, even if they could understand each other, the mirror image was the opposite of Arnold. It could remain calm, so it could find Arnold’s flaw and use the most effective attack.
Too powerful!
Arnold realized the profound meaning of this Trial Field.
The goal of the second stage was to defeat oneself in oneself’s strongest state!
This meant that unless one could make a breakthrough in the fight, it would be impossible to win against oneself’s strongest state.Only if one could break their limit would they be able to defeat the mirror image. This would stimulate one’s limits and was a golden opportunity to learn of oneself!
Good!
Very good!
Arnold excitedly roared out as his fighting spirit burned stronger, “Father doesn’t believe that I can’t defeat myself.”
Finally, Arnold and the mirror image had fought four-five times before the mirror image found a flaw.The large axe cut Arnold in half and made Arnold fail the second stage.
Arnold had no choice but to believe it.
That mirror image knew all of Arnold’s weaknesses and it was very calm.When Arnold was unable to overcome these flaws, they became fatal.
