Walker Of The Worlds-Chapter 2079 Encountering Familiar Beasts

~Rumble~

Before Lin Mu and Lady Kang did anything though, the two gates moved on their own. A rumbling sound was heard, while fine dust and stone fragments fell from the gates. "Perhaps we were just supposed to come here directly." Lin Mu said, knowing that his earlier test was a bit too excessive.

This was merely the entrance hall and the real part of the Inheritance ground started from here on.

"Let's go in." Lady Kang said, taking the lead this time.

~Rumble~

Once the two were inside the new area, the gates closed behind them. "No going back I suppose." Lin Mu narrowed his eyes before feeling a Qi fluctuation.

~shua~

The room suddenly turned bright as several lights glowed on the ceiling. With the room fully illuminated, they didn't need to use their immortal senses to see what was inside. This room was bigger than the previous one, being six hundred meters by six hundred meters.

The roof was also about a hundred meters above, hinting to the both that this was made with movement in mind.

"A bit too big for a normal room… this isn't going to be a trial of intelligence, is it?" Lin Mu questioned, looking at Lady Kang.

"Doesn't seem like it," She said, becoming alert.

Lin Mu did the same, spreading his Immortal sense to pick up on any surprise attacks. ~shua~

The two watched as a few runes appeared in front of them. The runes joined together and spelled a single word.

'Survive.' As soon as the two saw it, they knew what was going to happen.

~HUALA~

A dark gas of some kind poured out from the floor and filled the room.

"Poison?" Lady Kang guessed.

Rune appeared in front of them once more, forming a new word.

'Pass'

"Guess that was it for the first trial." Lin Mu understood. "We will probably face stronger foes, as we go onwards." He guessed.

"Probably… Though how did you know about these: Chasm Beasts?" Lady Kang questioned, feeling intrigued.

"I've encountered several of them in the past. They are a type of an illusory beast and are made out of a strange gas. They have no internal organs and provide no useful materials." Lin Mu answered. "This gas is mostly a chaotic mix of different energies without a specific proportion." He explained. "How peculiar… I've seen some other illusory beasts before that were also composed of pure Qi, but nothing like these." Lady Kang replied. "They don't seem to have a particular 'will' of their own." She added.

"They don't, yes. I'm unsure as to how they are exactly created but there is definitely some logic to them." Lin Mu replied. "Considering we are in here as a trial, they are possibly being controlled by the Celestial Treasure itself." He guessed.

"Perhaps… We'll learn more once we see more of them." Lady Kang said, turning to the exit which had now opened.

~Rumble~

Similar to before, two plain stone gates opened allowing Lin Mu and Lady Kang to pass through. Their immortal sense scanned the next room, which was also illuminated just like before. Once the two were inside, the gates closed, locking them in.

~shua~

"Same as before." Lin Mu watched the runes spell Survive again.

~HISS~

Dark gas rose from the floor again, and coalesced into multiple spheres. ~WOOSH~WOOSH~WOOSH~

But this time, Lin Mu and Lady Kang reacted instantly, attacking the newly formed spheres.

In just a second, the two of them had destroyed eight spheres that had formed around them.

~GRAAAA~

But that was not enough, as the number of Chasm Beasts had increased by several times. Instead of six, there were now thirty two of them!

"The trial adjusted in difficulty huh… though they're still weak." Lin Mu said, easily defeating ten of them with a few more punches. "I wonder how long they'll stay at this level." Lady Kang said, killing the rest of the Chasm Beasts.
