Chương 52: Next Ranking Trial Begins

The trio's firm footsteps carried them into the portal's pink surface where they experienced the most unnerving and disorienting millisecond of their lives so far. They felt a cool sensation cross their bodies in a line that seemed to penetrate through the deepest fabric of their beings. The weight of the space pressed and pulled on them, leading to a swirling impact to their sense of direction. Up, down, left, right all blended together for a brief moment as they stepped through to the other side. 

Lassim carefully landed on the other side. Thankfully, due to his slightly higher cultivation and body's sturdiness, only felt a slight bit of nausea. Glancing around, he found himself alone in a barren land. The ground was littered with rocks and cracked ground. No moisture or plant life seen for miles around and there was a sweltering heat that pervaded the atmosphere.
