Chapter 118: Clearance at High Speed!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Feng felt that in this life he had changed a lot.

He also gained many insights.

There was great horror between life and death, but there was also infinite power.

Going from death to rebirth, for Chu Feng, was a metamorphosis from the inside out.

A true journey to Nirvana.

This change could not be reflected in strength.

But it would subtly affect everything about Chu Feng!

Now was the time to test!

Chu Feng took a deep breath.

He suddenly abandoned all distracting thoughts.

He wanted to give it a shot.

He wanted to see how far away he was from those existences he had to look up to in his previous life!

A low growl came from his throat.

“Come on! The countdown begins!”

After Chu Feng had spoken those words, the empty space seemed to react.

Amechanical voice sounded.

“The assessment for Chu Feng, a human being, has begun. The timer has been activated. The contents of the first assessment: Fallen Hell.”

Just as it finished speaking, a huge clock appeared out of thin air.

It started to tick.

At the same time, Chu Feng felt as if everything around him had changed.

An invisible pressure enveloped his entire body.

It was so oppressive that he could not breathe.

The originally vast and empty space suddenly became pitch-black.

There was no light at all.

Vaguely, Chu Feng could only see drifting figures in the dark space.

‘The sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard.

It caused Chu Feng’s soul to tremble slightly.

“The first level, to test the soul?”

Chu Feng muttered to himself.

Everyone encountered different situations during the assessment of the Spirit Pagoda.

The tests on each level were also different.

But there were rules to follow.

The general principle was that it targeted at a warrior’s weakness!

Strong before weak!

The strongest aspect would be assessed in the first level.

The higher one went, the weaker aspects would be tested. Naturally, it would be difficult for one to pass!

In his previous life, countless people had been trapped on a certain level of the Nine-Story Spirit Pagoda because of a certain weakness!

Obviously, this time, the Spirit Pagoda believed that Chu Feng’s soul was his strongest aspect.

Chu Feng was not surprised.

After all, his soul was at the A+ rank in his previous life!

‘There was no problem with this judgment.

But this was only relative.

After his rebirth, Chu Feng had the intention to fully train himself.

Explosion, speed, strength, endurance

‘There were no shortcomings!

That was why he could constantly fight against the strong as a C-rank!

He listened to the increasingly terrifying sounds around him.

The pain from his soul grew stronger and stronger.

In front of his eyes, all kinds of demons and ghosts started to appear. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws, and extended their fangs to eat Chu Feng!

Ordinary martial artists would have long been scared out of their wits at this moment, lowering their heads and rolling around.

However, Chu Feng merely stood there quietly.

Asmile appeared on his face.

He even closed his eyes.

This pain was somewhat enjoyable for him.

“Testing the soul… An illusion? No, perhaps there are some real existences mixed in. If I’m ‘killed’ by it, the assessment should be over.”

‘As Chu Feng was very experienced, he instantly realized what the assessment was.

‘With the Cleaved Edge Saber in hand, He began to search for an opportunity to kill the enemy in one shot.

Even though he was challenging the record, he was still calm.

Chu Feng felt that his mental state had undergone a qualitative change compared to his previous life.

He had even experienced death, what else could shake his heart?

Time passed.

Suddenly, at a certain moment, when an inconspicuous brat quietly extended his demonic claws toward Chu Feng’s neck, Chu Feng suddenly opened his eyes.

He smiled faintly.

“You couldn’t hold it in anymore.”

As he spoke, a cold light flashed.

The Cleaved Edge Saber directly turned the brat into dust.

Immediately after, the surrounding demons and monsters dissipated.

The space returned to normal.

A mechanical voice sounded.

“Ding… Congratulations to Chu Feng for passing the first stage of the assessment. Teleportation to the second level. Assessment content: Thousand-Thread Flying Current.”

Chu Feng took a glance at the time.

It felt like a long time, but in reality, only four minutes and twenty seconds had passed.

“Not bad.”

Chu Feng nodded in satisfaction.

This was already the fastest speed for him to clear the first level.

But compared to the genius in his previous life, he was not good enough.

This way, it would be difficult to break the record, unless he could perform better on the next two levels.

However, Chu Feng remained very calm.

If he won, he would be lucky; if he lost, he would gladly accept the result.

It was good that he had improved.

Just when Chu Feng was about to begin the second level of the assessment, the outside world was in chaos.

In less than five minutes, among the three thousand people who had entered the Spirit Pagoda earlier, more than a hundred people had already been kicked out!

Inside the stadium, everyone sighed.

These people walked into the Spirit Pagoda with full confidence.

Unexpectedly, they were “killed” in an instant.

It was a huge blow!

“The moment I entered, I encountered a ball of fire. The temperature was terrifyingly high, and I melted immediately!”

“That’s not terrible. My experience was terrifying. Ghosts were everywhere, and I had a splitting headache. A little brat looked harmless, but he broke my neck!”

“It’s too difficult! Is this something that a human can pass?!”

These people, in their own factions, could be considered a genius.

After all, someone who could break through to the D-rank now would not be too bad.

But even so, they were still unable to put up any resistance.

This time, everyone knew that Ye Qingtian was not lying.

‘Were three levels even necessary?

You thought too highly of us!

Chu Feng did not know or care about what was happening in the outside world.

He had already arrived at the second level.

In front of him was a cliff.

In the middle was a slender chain bridge.

Below was a bottomless abyss.

Chu Feng did not hesitate.

Just as he stepped onto the chain bridge, when he had yet to stabilize himself, countless water arrows came one after another, filling the entire space. Each of them was comparable to an A+ rank attack!

‘The assessment of the Spirit Pagoda was very fair!

It did not depend on strength!

If one was strong, the attack arranged for them would naturally be strong as well!

A martial artist had to determine which assessment it was and find a way to clear it!

Seeing those terrifying water arrows, Chu Feng knew that he was no match for them.

Every one of them was enough to kill him instantly.

This meant that he had to dodge all the water arrows and reach the opposite side.

“Testing my movement speed?”

Chu Feng’s lips curled up.

This was actually what he was best at!

The Water-Element Domain Field was activated to its maximum.

He tried his best to slow down the speed of the water arrows.

Chu Feng was like an agile ape running on the iron chain.

His figure was like a shadow he weaved through the countless water arrows.

Every time, he would slash through the gaps between two water arrows at the most tricky angle.

From afar, Chu Feng looked like he was dancing above a bottomless abyss.

He was completely immersed in it.

‘The next moment, he suddenly woke up.

He had already reached the opposite side.

‘The Spirit Pagoda had already reminded him that he had passed.

“So fast…”

Chu Feng took a glance at the time. He did not dare to believe it.

It only took one minute and forty seconds.

It was much faster than in his previous life!

He was even faster than that genius!

He made up for the delay in the first level.

There were still four minutes left.. He seemed to have another chance.
