Chapter 6175: Trickery, Trickery

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jian Wushuang’s furious roar echoed without any respite.

“You will understand what true pain is!” The realm beast’s face contorted in a sinister manner as it attempted to crush the token.

It wanted to destroy Jian Wushuang’s reliance right in front of him.

Crack!

After a crisp sound, the realm beast froze.

The sound wasn’t the token shattering; it was the sound of its own bones being crushed.

The token remained intact.

As it tried to break the token again, the token flew towards Jian Wushuang, emitting a dazzling light.

Buzz!

The light illuminated the surroundings.

Space shattered, and time became chaotic.

Boundless power of the Law Rules broke through everything.

Jian Wushuang naturally escaped from his predicament.

Slap!

He caught the token again, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and raised the token with one hand, intending to crush it completely.

But when he saw his surroundings clearly, he was dumbfounded.

This wasn’t the Infinite Lands!

It was clearly an illusory world.

Everything before him turned into an illusion.

The ugly realm beast disintegrated into ashes in an instant.

Everything was over.

Jian Wushuang put away the token.

He had been tricked.

Tricked by those statues.

The Dao Heart test when he first arrived at the Infinite Lands was probably just a facade.

It was to make him afraid, to make him believe that this place could truly connect to the Infinite Lands.

The final test, to enter the Infinite Lands to kill a demigod, was just to tie everything together.

A scheme within a scheme, a trap within a trap!

It nearly made him use his strongest trump card.

“Phew!” He breathed heavily, his wounds slowly healing. He looked up and said coldly, “That should be enough!”

He had wanted to vent, but realizing that the other party didn’t truly intend to take his life, he had to handle things lightly.

Fortunately, that realm beast couldn’t crush the token.

Otherwise, he would have suffered a huge loss.

Becoming the inheritor of this place, how many benefits could he gain?

Was it worth as much as a life?

This token was his second life.

He couldn’t use it recklessly.

“Congratulations, from now on, you are the seventh inheritor of this place!”

A voice came from the sky. Jian Wushuang looked up and saw several giant statues appear around him, only revealing their upper bodies.

He was still in that small world.

With a flash, he was back outside.

“Seventh?”

He realized that even though he had fought so hard, he wasn’t the first.

There were six other competitors.

“Yes, you are currently the seventh inheritor. There are six before you. Among the six, there are four demigods and two Universe Gods. The strongest among them is a six-star Universe God. Once he becomes an eight-star Universe God, he will be able to fully inherit all the treasures here!”

With a wave of its hand, the statue revealed a leaderboard.

Even divine power was noted.

First place: “Zong Peng,” a six-star Universe God with 670 million divine power.

Seeing this, Jian Wushuang was stunned.

How could he compete?

The others were nearly seven stars.

He hadn’t even qualified to undergo the Ninth Tribulation.

He couldn’t compete.

Or rather, he was being played.

“Don’t be discouraged. An eight-star Universe God isn’t as simple as you think. Moreover, there’s a final test. You might not lose!”

“You don’t need your basic divine power to reach the eight-star Universe God. You only need your combat power to reach that level!” Seeing Jian Wushuang’s disbelief, the statue added, “Don’t rush. The old master left nine positions. You’re seventh, which isn’t too late!”

Jian Wushuang’s face darkened. It wasn’t late indeed.

But the gap was too wide.

The sixth-place demigod already had 80 million divine power.

Almost the same as him now.

One demigod even had over 100 million divine power.

He was stunned.

He had never heard of a demigod with over 100 million divine power in the outside world.

“This?” He pointed to the third position, showing a surprised expression.

The statue knew what he wanted to ask and explained, “This is a demigod from the Starry Sky World. It’s normal for a demigod to rival a Universe God. You now have 90 million divine power at the Eighth Tribulation level, with combat power equivalent to a demigod threshold. What’s there to be surprised about!”

Indeed!

Jian Wushuang shouldn’t have been surprised.

But his uniqueness was known only to himself!

When he reached the Ninth Tribulation, he might be on par with the third place.

Divine power exceeding 100 million.

He hadn’t expected such a powerful demigod.

Next, he inquired about the Infinite Lands, his most pressing concern.

He needed to clarify this.

In case he became an inheritor and had to venture to the Infinite Lands for battles, he needed to be prepared.

The statue’s explanation was simple.

To inherit the treasures, he must also inherit the wishes.

After becoming the true inheritor, he would gain all the treasures.

Of course, not all at once.

He had to exchange the realm beast’s original core for them.

A primal core of an eight-star realm beast could directly obtain all the treasures.

The primal core of a seven-star beast could only obtain one-tenth of the treasures.

But even this required becoming the final heir to redeem them.

At present, he was not qualified.

The current benefit was the ability to enter this place and absorb the power of the Starry Sky.

Once he entered at the Eighth Tribulation, he would have to wait until the Ninth Tribulation to enter again.

Upon entering, besides absorbing the power of the Starry Sky, he also had to slay realm beasts of the same level.

The statue would customarily assign him realm beasts with equal strength, or even those stronger than him.

As long as he completed the test, he would be able to obtain treasures again.

Then there was the Universe God.

The Universe God could enter this place three times.

After using up the three opportunities, the next entry would require reaching the stage of an eight-star Universe God.

After hearing this, Jian Wushuang nodded silently.

He thought it seemed quite reasonable.

Moreover, he could now receive a reward for reaching the Eighth Tribulation.

“The reward for the Eighth Tribulation is ordinarily quite common, but given that your strength far exceeds others of the same level, giving you an ordinary treasure would be useless. So, I will break the rules and give you a one-star divine weapon instead!”

The statue finally showed some generosity.

However, upon hearing this, Jian Wushuang frowned.

After all this effort, he would only receive a one-star divine weapon.

He really wasn’t interested.

From Lord of the Zhalong Mountain, he had obtained a six-star divine weapon.

Naturally, he wasn’t interested in these one-star divine weapons.

Seeing Jian Wushuang frown, the statue corrected him, “Do not underestimate this treasure. Although your current divine power is strong, you cannot break through spacetime. The divine weapon I am granting you can break through spacetime!”

“Break through spacetime?” Jian Wushuang took a deep breath upon hearing this.

A demigod wanting to break through spacetime could only use a spacetime token.

But that was too expensive.

Moreover, it required purchasing with Starry Sky crystals.

Jian Wushuang didn’t have a single Starry Sky Crystal.

Though he possessed the power of the Starry Sky, it wasn’t enough for himself. It was impossible to cut his divine power to condense Starry Sky Crystals to buy a spacetime token.
