章節 22: Summer Harvest
"I know, my genius is almost frightening," Yun Wuji rolled his eyes.
"..." The Primordial Azure Dragon.
"Young human, your result is shocking. In thousands of years, you are the first to pass this stage of the trial. I often regretted leaving a trace of my soul and strength here, as the level of strength on this continent was too low. The trial seemed impossible for humans here. But perhaps by fate's design, you appeared and passed the test with ease." The Primordial Azure Dragon sighed.
"Can I start the second trial? Or should we skip everything and go straight to my reward?" Yun Wuji ignored the praise and asked.
"Although with your strength you would certainly pass the second trial, I still wish to witness how you will do it," the Azure Dragon answered. He didn't mind Wuji's somewhat arrogant attitude. Dragons are naturally prideful and haughty, so he didn't find it offensive.
"The gate to the second stage's trial ground has already opened. You can proceed to the second trial whenever you are ready."
Yun Wuji nodded and slowly entered the stone gate. His vision darkened after two steps, and he sensed a brief space fluctuation. Then, his surroundings brightened, revealing a vast expanse of endless plains. Grass covered the ground, and scattered trees provided shade. The faint sound of running water filled the air, and distant hills rose and fell. Birds and animals occasionally cried out, adding to the serene atmosphere.
"This is the second trial. This trial ground has no limits and no exit. The endless plain is home to innumerable profound beasts, all adjusted to match your strength at the fifth level of the Sky Profound Realm. Additionally, some beasts possess the strength of the Stone Dragon General."
"These beasts are sensitive to strangers, and once they sense your aura, they will immediately unleash an endless barrage of attacks. Under my soul's guidance, profound beasts near you will also be led in your direction," the Primordial Azure Dragon's voice echoed from above.
"The objective of clearing this second stage of the trial is simple: kill 49,999 beasts within one year!"
"Just to confirm, the beasts near me will be directed toward me by you, correct?" Yun Wuji asked.
"Yes"
"Then could you do me a favor and guide all the beasts in this plain toward me? I'd rather not keep my companion waiting," Yun Wuji requested with a clap of his hands.
"..." The Primordial Azure Dragon was momentarily speechless before responding, "If you're confident, then as you wish, I'll lead all of them to you."
"Hope you can show me something interesting."
A few minutes after his voice fell, Yun Wuji began to sense movement from all directions. The earth trembled as herds of beasts surged toward him!
"So efficient!" Watching the beasts coming from afar, Wuji praised the Azure Dragon's work efficiency.
He then drew his purple Heavy Sword, an emperor-grade weapon he had 'borrowed' from a sect in the Azure Cloud continent. It had become his primary weapon. He naturally chose a heavy sword as his main weapon because of Hong'er!
He waited until the beasts were at a suitable distance, then swung his sword horizontally, carving a deadly arc through the air.
Swoosh!
The arc was enormous, moving at almost instantaneous speed, and it appeared before a giant python at the forefront.
"Hiss!" The giant python let out a loud cry as a thick layer of green energy covered its body, forming a protective shield. The green shield shimmered and glowed, preparing to block the incoming sword attack.
"Swoosh!"
"Eh?" The snake's eyes widened in shock as a slender crimson line appeared across its body. The line swiftly deepened, and with a sudden, clean cut, the snake was sliced horizontally in two, collapsing to the ground in two separate halves.
The sword arc continued its path, swiftly slicing through the horde of monsters. The arc moved effortlessly, splitting the creatures in its path into two, as it carved a bloody path through the advancing beasts.
His veins allowed him to mobilize profound strength instantly and boost his explosive power, ensuring all his attacks were at their peak. This meant even a simple strike from him was as powerful as an all-out attack from others.
When facing weaker opponents, a single attack is enough for him to handle them, no matter how many there are. To him, these monsters are just numbers—one swing of his sword is all it takes, like harvesting ripe wheat.
"Harvesting wheat?" He stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Hmm, that's an interesting name. Alright, I'll call this attack 'Summer Harvest'!"
"Roar!"
"Hiss!"
Under the Azure Dragon's guidance, the beasts, undeterred by the carnage, charged forward relentlessly, rushing madly toward him.
Swoosh!
Wuji swung his sword once more, and a massive arc of light cut through the new wave of beasts. The blade moved with such force that it cleaved through the creatures effortlessly
With each swing of his sword, a fresh wave of beasts fell before him, as if he were merely cutting grass. No matter how strong the creatures were, they all faced the same inevitable fate.
The once green plain turned red with blood.
Wuji raised his sword again, ready to strike, when suddenly his vision blurred. The endless plain vanished, and he found himself in a pitch-black space.
Above him, a pair of enormous azure blue eyes slowly opened.
The eyes of the Primordial Azure Dragon.
"Already finished?" Wuji asked, not having kept count of the beasts he'd slain. He knew the Azure Dragon would inform him once he had killed enough.
"Yes, you've completed the second trial," the Primordial Azure Dragon replied. "I must say, I'm once again astonished. Though I expected you would pass easily, seeing it with my own eyes, it's hard to believe how a human could achieve such a feat. Seeing how domineering you are reminds me of my old days."
"It may have been hard for others, but not for me," Yun Wuji said with a nod. "Can we start the third trial now?"
Yun Wuji wasn't being arrogant; he was simply stating a fact. While the Dragon God's trial was incredibly tough for others, it was no challenge for him.
"There is no third trial. Because you have already passed the third stage of the trial." The Primordial Azure Dragon calmly stated.
"Already passed? Why?" Yun Wuji said in surprise.
"The final stage is a trial of character. You possess the power of light and have passed the Phoenix's trial as well, which also includes a test of character. Since you've already completed that, it is proof of your character. Therefore, there was no need to conduct the third stage here. You have already passed." The Primordial Azure Dragon explained patiently.
"Congratulations, young human. You are the first person on this land to pass the Dragon God Trial," the Primordial Azure Dragon announced.
"Thank you," Yun Wuji nodded, unable to suppress the excitement that spread across his face.
"Before I give you your deserved reward, I have a request," the Primordial Azure Dragon said. "I'm curious about how you obtained your light energy and how you became this strong. May I browse your memories?"
"What? Do all the trial spirits have the same hobby?" Yun Wuji asked.
"Hahaha, it seems the phoenix couldn't contain its curiosity either," the Primordial Azure Dragon replied with a gentle laugh.
"I already let the phoenix see my memories. Allowing someone to see my memories for a second time isn't much different," Yun Wuji shrugged.
"You have my gratitude, young human," the Primordial Azure Dragon's voice resonated. As it spoke, Yun Wuji felt a presence gently invade his mind.
"What the fuck? Sperm? How is this even possible?" The Primordial Azure Dragon cursed aloud as it browsed through Wuji's memories. Then it wondered, "But then again, does being in another man's balls make you gay?"
