Chapter 43: The Valley Masters and Their Trials

The Primordial Chaos Sect was unlike any place Charles had ever seen. He and the other newcomers stood at the edge of a massive courtyard, surrounded by lush gardens and ancient structures. The air buzzed with energy and anticipation as the Valley Masters stepped forward to present their trials.

**Test 1: Ouroboros - Valley of the Snake God (John)**

John, the Master of Ouroboros, he walked to the center of the courtyard and explained the trial with a sly grin.

**"The Trial of Illusions"**

"In the Valley of the Snake God, we value adaptability and cunning," John said, his eyes glinting. "You'll enter a labyrinth where nothing is as it seems. The task is to find your way out. Beware, the walls will shift, and illusions will try to mislead you."

The disciples, including Charles, entered the maze. Inside, shadows danced across the walls, and the corridors seemed to stretch endlessly. Phantoms appeared, testing the limits of their perception.
