Chapter 327: Three hundred and twenty-six, test
"17 Gale Rabbits, 12 Flame Chickens." Luo Shu told Xiao Yao the answer.
After Xiao Yao wrote down the answer, a wooden box appeared again in front of the three of them.
Opening the wooden box, inside were three Level Four Spirit Herbs this time.
"I’ll give you my Spirit Grass too," Xiao Yao said and then pressed for the next layer. With his current level of cultivation, Level Four Spirit Herbs weren’t of much use to him, and the questions had all been answered by Luo Shu and the others anyway.
Upon reaching the Third Layer, seeing the questions posed, Luo Shu and Yun Han’s confidence grew even stronger. Whether or not the questions were posed by Yuan Star People, they were all within their knowledge. Originally they had worried they wouldn’t be able to help Xiao Yao, but now they had no such worries at all.
The three of them reached the tenth floor quite smoothly. Although the questions became more difficult at each level, they didn’t stump Luo Shu and his team.
The cultivators watching outside showed expressions of surprise as some groups made it to the tenth floor.
"That group is incredible! They have already made it to the tenth floor."
"I wonder if they are disciples of a sect; if not, it might be possible to recruit them into our Snowy Hidden Sect."
"They’ve entered the eleventh floor now; they’re so fast!" The crowd exclaimed as they saw Luo Shu and his team ascend once more.
Although the Myriad Stars Realm only opened once every seven years, and each trial was different, it was rare to see a group advance as quickly as this one.
When Luo Shu and his team arrived at the fifteenth floor, they found it different from the previous floors; the entire hall was empty.
As the three of them stood there in a daze, three meditation cushions appeared before them.
Looking at each other with confusion, they stepped forward and sat on the meditation cushions.
A distant voice suddenly echoed in the hall, "Congratulations on reaching the fifteenth floor. The next five floors will no longer involve answering questions, but instead, a trial."
"A trial?" The three of them asked in confusion.
"You will soon find out!" The voice laughed heartily, slowly fading away until it vanished...
As Luo Shu and the others were still puzzled, a wooden box appeared before them.
The wooden box slowly opened, revealing a Jade Bottle inside labeled ’Revival Water.’
Xiao Yao’s eyes lit up instantly, "Revival Water lives up to its name. Just one drink and even if one is already dead, it can instantly bring them back to life."
Upon hearing this, both Luo Shu and Yun Han’s eyes also brightened. They also understood the trial of this floor. It was the desire inherent in human nature, "Life and death at the root, desire as the foremost" – a part of what makes humans human.
This desire isn’t limited to power but also includes love, life, greed, thirst, wants, reminiscence, passion, preferences, affection, respect, recognition, joy, confidence, happiness, freedom, clothing, food, shelter, transport, and other material or spiritual needs; as long as one lives, desires will never cease.
Just like this bottle of ’Revival Water’, possessing it is akin to having an extra life. Therefore, the moment the three of them saw it, the desire to obtain it arose within them. To get it, their relations would no longer remain harmonious; they might even fight and struggle over it...
Realizing this, Yun Han and Luo Shu spoke up simultaneously, "Brother Xiao Yao, you keep it." Without Xiao Yao, they couldn’t have gotten in here, let alone obtained all the previous rewards.
Xiao Yao laughed heartily, took the Jade Bottle and opened it to glance inside, then took out two more Jade Bottles and divided the ’Revival Water’ into three parts, "Three drops, just right for one each."
Luo Shu and Yun Han exchanged glances. Perhaps they had misunderstood the intention.
Looking towards Xiao Yao, she smiled and accepted the Jade Bottle, "Thank you, Brother Xiao Yao!"
"Why so polite! The only question is whether we have passed this test?" said Xiao Yao with a chuckle.
Just then, their Qualification Tokens, just like before, emitted a beam of blue light, and in the next moment, the scene before their eyes changed. This time, they were faced with a long staircase.
"What kind of test is this?" Yun Han exclaimed in surprise.
"Let’s go up and try," Luo Shu suggested. If this was a test, the staircase wouldn’t be so easy.
"Mhm!" Xiao Yao and Yun Han nodded in agreement.
The three of them walked towards the staircase and, upon arriving, they halted their steps.
"Let’s all step on it at the same time and try," Xiao Yao said, looking at Luo Shu and Yun Han.
Luo Shu and Yun Han nodded, lifting their feet and stepping onto the staircase at the same time as Xiao Yao.
They immediately felt a pushing force; had they not been mentally prepared beforehand, this step would have surely resulted in being pushed off by the force.
"Just as I thought, something’s fishy!" Xiao Yao looked at Luo Shu and Yun Han. "How are you holding up? Can you withstand it?" He had no problems with such a force, but their cultivation levels were far lower than his, and he wondered if they could bear it.
"If we walk slowly, there shouldn’t be a problem," said Yun Han. Although the pushing force was strong, it was still within the range he could endure.
"Good! Let’s take it slow," Xiao Yao nodded. They had come this far together; he didn’t believe they couldn’t pass this test together.
Luo Shu steadied her mind and, once she adjusted, she nodded to Yun Han and Xiao Yao, "I’m ready; let’s continue!"
The three continued towards the second level of the staircase. The pushing force was stronger than the first level’s, but it still didn’t affect them too much.
After that, with every step up the staircase, the pushing force increased a bit more.
The complexions of Luo Shu and Yun Han became paler and paler, and the beads of sweat on their faces grew finer and denser.
"Can you hold on?" Xiao Yao asked with a serious face. The force from the staircase was becoming somewhat unbearable, even for him.
"We can! Let’s go up one more step," Luo Shu and Yun Han said through clenched teeth, trying hard to combat the pushing force emanating from the steps.
All three took another step together. This time, the immense pushing force nearly toppled Luo Shu and Yun Han backward; had Xiao Yao not been holding them tightly, they likely would have been pushed off by the formidable force.
The two hurriedly steadied their minds, striving to stand firmly on the steps.
Luo Shu looked up at the remaining majority of the staircase with a determined glint in her eyes. She couldn’t give up, she had to persevere!
She tried to release her Divine Sense to combat the staircase’s strong pushing force. It was difficult to move at first, but slowly, she discovered that her Divine Sense seemed to be strengthening while resisting the force. Could this pushing force cultivate spiritual consciousness?
With the possibility in mind, Luo Shu focused all her spirit to combat the force with her Divine Sense and indeed found that it grew stronger as it resisted the force, and the intensity of the pushing force became weaker and weaker.
"The force can cultivate spiritual consciousness; you guys should try it too," Luo Shu said to Yun Han and Xiao Yao.
