Chapter 457 - Trial By Fire



Clearly, no one needed to emphasis to David that being a cripple and a blind in such a dangerous environment was spelling doom to one’s head.

Which was why David hadn’t hesitate to use his last bottle of insta-heal mixed with blood he had compressed from several powerful beings.

It as already a hard to come by life-saving treasure and to David, it was already one life lost, naturally he was feeling extremely pained. The Combat suit had also exploded a few seconds he was exposed to space, naturally the ache he was feeling in his heart wasn’t a small one. 

Finally, David turned his focus towards his surrounding. There was now a little more than a thousand people who was gathering at a very large clearing. It was more than ten times that of a football field. 

The land was barren and the sky was red as though it was bleeding. Its almost as if… “This is another planet?” 

David unconsciously muttered. His eyes immediately widened as he thought of what this could mean. It meant that travelling through planets was possible and that earth was just a fiction of his imagination or an illusion. 

David breathed out roughly and calmed himself down. He then took his focus to the seven large black doors. There wasn’t really any difference between the seven doors and David even heard whispers that the seven doors were the same. 

From the information he had gathered so far from eavesdropping, anyone who passes through a door would have to undergo a trial and no matter how fast the person enters, he or she would never encounter the person that had previously entered. 

It was as though with every person that passes through the doors, they were magical put in their own space to undergo the trial without disturbing or meeting other people that were going through with their own trial simultaneously.

David had already missed the opportunity to be on eif the few ones that were able to enter through those doors. While you can exit the doors after passing several trials, one would still have to start directly from the beginning. 

Every person had only three chances to enter the trial and three chances to forfeit after which, the doors would reject that person by casting the person out.

Numerous people had been casted out already and unable to enter through the seven doors anymore. They all had no choice but to observe the rest of the people undertaking their own trials. There was no way for them to exit this space and they all assumed when the winner of the trial appears, they would all be sent back to the sacred domain. This reddish planet was enough to cause goosebumps to the sensitive people. 

Right above the seven doors, numerous dark dull dot light shone, indicating the amount of people undergoing the first level of the trial, but less yellow dots were visible this time. While at the third trial, less than 500 students had made it to the third level while at the fourth level, 200 plus orange dots were above the seven doors, indicating the amount of people that were truly at the fourth level. 

The highest level a student had reach was the seventh level. But no one knew who that person was since the trial gave no further information about the people partaking it’s trial by fire. 

David sat cross-legged at a particular position. He had long since switched his location since the smell of blood from the corpses kept on distracting him. 

After he had healed about 50 percent of his body strength, David stood up without minding the crowds of students entering and exiting the doors, he headed straight for one of the trial by fire doors. 

“Hey! Watch were you are going!” Someone shouted and David’s left hand flew towards the left side. In his grasp was a smooth and silky white hand that had somehow managed to trlear a hole through his robes and attempting to steal the storage rings he had kept hidden. 

Gaclzing upwards, David saw a fairly beautiful young lady gazing at him innocently but with eyes glaring secretly murder at him. 

David instantly scoffed. There was no need to be merciful at people like this. 

Snap! 

A terrified scream tore though the air as the lady hurriedly withdrew her hand with tears on her face. Her left hand had been disfigured and was bending in an awkward direction. 

David didn’t let this bother him, neither did the scream truly bothered the thousands of people in the large field. Since the lady’s scream was just a needle in the haystack of noises. 

David breathed out roughly and pushed the third door open, but it didn’t bulge. David paused.

This could only mean that the amount of people within that door had reached the limits it can handle. He’d have to go through the other doors. 

David arrived at the fourth dark door and pushed it open. 

Instantly, he felt light warped and a great darkness engulf him. After a few seconds, light tore through space, using air as medium as it illuminated the entire surroundings. 

David was now standing on a small field that was filled with large luscious grasses and weeds unlike the barren land that was outside. 

“Hmm.” David touched his chin, deep in thought. He actually was thinking about why there would be so much difference with the outside and the inside of the trial.

Suddenly, his eyes twitched and his nose flared. A sickening smell assaulted his nose and he seem to hear sounds from a few hundreds of meters away firm him. 

David frowned in disgust but he didn’t want to turn off his sense of smell as that was also part of his combat ability. 

Gradually, he turned around to see where the sound was coming from. It was then a one meter Demonic rabbit appeared in his field of vision. 

It seem to be extremely starved as it gazed at David with a crazed look of hunger, but it’s fur is extremely luscious and its skin protruded tiny spikes on its back. π—‡π‘œπ—π‘’π₯π—‡π–Šxt.π‚πžΈπ”ͺ

Beifre David could finah analysing his opponent, the beast immediately leapt at him, baring its sharp fangs at his neck.

“Go.” David’s flying blade tore through the air with immense speed and without warning, it sliced the demonic rabbit into two. 

Two thuds sounded as the separated body landed in each side of David’s body. Using mental energy, David shielded himself from the rain of blood, avoiding a single bit of blood to splash on his skin. 

The beast had been extremely weak since it was just a rank one demonic beast. 

Bang!

There was a flash of light and a single door appeared not too far from him. 

David paused for a breathe of time before heading towards the door. Dvaud was once more engulfed in darkness as he stepped into the door. 

Before him was a place similar to the first trial, there wasn’t much of a difference between the two space, but a different kind of smell assaulted his senses, making him frown even deeper. The smell was even stronger than the demonic rabbit by one level. 

He had already determined the location of the beast and instantly, his fingers moved. With a slight thought from him, his blade ripped through the air, with a sonic blast as his flying blade directly punctured through the forehead of the beast, directly killing it. 

David didn’t bother about what kind of beast it was as he stepped into the next gate. The beast’s body instantly turned to ash, dissipating alongside the wind. 

In the third trial, David directly met with three rank two beast, David’s expression didn’t change by a single bit. He only furrowed his brows slightly as this was only the third stage of ten trial and it was already this difficult. 

He soared backwards with speed, avoiding a direct clash wit h the three beast and in just a half a second, the three rank two beast fell to the ground with their bodies chopped into two. 

He hadn’t used too much energy in this three stages since he hadn’t even utilized any techniques yet. Stepping to the fourth stage of the trial, his expression changed as the darkness engulfing him hadn’t faded yet, but he voidk sense that there was an attack that was already aimed at him. 

He slammed his foot against the ground, and drifted to the sides, narrowly avoiding a claw directly smashing to his face. As the claw missed, the ground had a gaping hole in it as the claw slammed into it. 

Surprised, David was beginning to get excited as he obeserved his opponent. This was a single beast before him. But it was the Thin Crown One-legged Crow, a rank three Demonic beast. 

It’s speed was said to be one of the fastest, surpassing even ordinary rank four beast and it’s eyesight was the strongest amongst its other grade three counterparts. Its single claw was so strong it could tear apart a mountain side, leaving battle scars in its wake.. It was a deadly and a terrifying beast with almost no flaw in its attack pattern and its defenses.
