Poison God's Heritage

Chapter 653: Mirror Mirror On The Wall

"I don't want to talk about this…" the commentator said.

Eccentric Long began laughing as the entire audience was also chiming in on the irony of what was going on. freewebnσvel.cøm

"A man must use all that is around them to pass their trials, I approve of Du Shen's ability and intellect. He had found a way around the challenge and completed it perfectly within the rules. Honestly, I would have been more disappointed if he were to try and use ice law to solve that problem while he still had the ability to use his own Qi," Xiao Du nodded at Shen Bao's actions.

"I have a feeling that we will be seeing more of Du Shen's trickery and tools soon. Now, let's take a look at the rest of the contenders," the commentator said.

At the top of the race there were several cultivators that appeared in the first area too.

Among them the man with nine swords as he had finished gathering all of his red flags.

"It seems that the Demon Sword is using his power and experience to his advantage. He hunted down the first cultivators he found and killed them, gaining all the flags he needed to proceed forward. A lot of cultivators had chosen this flag since it is technically the easiest if they have confidence in their skill," the commentator said.

"It may be the easiest at first, but the more cultivators that die, the harder it will become to obtain the red flags. The lack of cultivators and also those who survived mean that they are strong enough to fight back. What I'm most interested in, is the purple flag, we do have a few cultivators doing that," Eccentric Long said.

The screen turned to a scholarly looking man who was calmly sitting atop what looked like a nimbus cloud. He was smiling as he was channeling the laws of ice as if they were second nature.

The purple flag challenge was not simple. As it was located at the peak of a frigid mountain, several obelisks were erected all over this mountain. These obelisks had the foundation making the law of cold and ice written on them. They affected the entire area above the mountain and created a powerful torrent of coldness.

Several cultivators were seated next to the obelisks, their goal was written on their bracelet and showed up on the screen.

Protect your obelisk for one hour, while filling the obelisk with Ice Law.

A very simple objective, however, it wasn't simple when there was competition. Other cultivators tried to sabotage those who were already seated since the slots were finite. And they had a timer ticking down on them.

"Not only do they have to remain near the obelisks they also have to fend off every attack from every cultivator that want to take their spot. The obelisk itself isn't easy to subdue as they need to funnel a lot of their own understanding of Law to finish their task. It is a hard and arduous task that will challenge a person's knowledge and understanding of Dao," Eccentric Long explained.

"What a fine young man," said the Xiao Du, "Not only is he fully controlling the laws of ice so he does not freeze over, he is also fending off against all of the other contenders. His understanding of Law is so great that he is almost done filling the obelisk's inscriptions with Law while fending off everyone attacking him."

"Although the nail that stands out gets hammered first, this young man, even when everyone is attacking him is still easily fending himself. He is carrying the stigma of the Lord of lords too. That camp has amazing cultivators as we can all see," Eccentric Long praised the young man.

"We do have other cultivators that already cleared many objectives. Mainly hunting wild beasts and finding relics, but it seems that those tasks fall a bit under the excitement that our fine crowd wish to see. We will be resuming broadcast once the event of the Frost Region is over, for now we'll be leaving you with a few prominent cultivators showing their prowess in battle!"

The commentator removed himself and began resting up.

"Quite an interesting tournament," said Eccentric Long.

"Indeed, last time, it was pretty boring. The only good stuff came at the end, most of the newcomers were not even worth commenting over." The commentator replied.

"I hope that child makes it," said Xiao Du.

"You're interested in Du Shen?" asked Eccentric Long.

"I harbor no ill intent, although I did at first, but a person with his type of knowledge is to be respected. I could learn a thing or two from him and even share some of my experience with him if I were to sit in the same table with him," he said.

"The tournament just started, we're far from the end. Hopefully the next part will be as interesting as the first bits," the Commentator said.

"The entire tournament was made by the eight suns, it should be fun to watch, I'm really sad that I'm unable to join this round. I never regretted being in the Origin Shattering realm until today, hah!" Xiao Du laughed.

***

The teleportation was a bit annoying as it left me slightly groggy. I had no idea why, I should be used to things like this.

Looking around though, I found myself in a dark lit area. It was a bit stuffy and smelled a bit moldy too.

Underground maybe?

The roof was nowhere to be seen and it was pretty dark besides the area I was on. It was the same pentagonal platform from before.

I released my Divine Sense to check and see where I was. But the divine sense itself was reflected all over and all around me. Reminding me of the ant caves I was in before alongside Old Fu.

There was nothing on my bracelet to indicated where I should go or what I should do. So I had to wait until the mission appears on it.

I then remembered the ring I had on me. It was the reward from the last trial, once it teleported me here, it got disabled. But it still held a storage room inside it. And when I opened the ring I found a piece of a map inside it.

The map looked like a maze. And I suppose this is nothing but one part of the whole map. Perhaps I'll need to find the rest of the pieces to figure out how to leave this area…

Well, that sounds simple enough. Now, we'll just have to wait for the bracelet to shine.
