Chapter 181: Chapter 111 White Lotus_3

"I can sense it, but I can’t sense its name or level, which has never happened outside before. I’ve seen S-class magical spirits outside and could sense their level and name," said Chu Jun.

"Most of the magical spirits outside are ordinary, and naturally can’t compare to those in the Land of Trial. Your sensing skill can only detect names and levels; it’s normal not to sense high-quality magical spirits." Li Xiu glanced at Chu Jun’s still bleeding finger. "Let’s head out first; your wound needs treatment, and there’s nothing here to treat it."

"No need, I can handle it myself. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve almost forgotten," said Chu Jun, extending his palm, from which a white lotus bloomed.

The white lotus floated above Chu Jun’s wound, emitting a strange white light. Under the illumination of that light, Chu Jun’s body also glowed white, and his wound gradually stopped bleeding.

"Is this your Symbiotic Contract?" Li Xiu looked a bit intrigued, amazed that a Symbiotic Contract like this could heal wounds.

"Its name is White Lotus; it can only heal external injuries, not much use. I was almost depressed to get such a Symbiotic Contract." Chu Jun said with a wry smile.

"No wonder Chu Jun has never shown his Symbiotic Contract. With his personality, if he had a cool Symbiotic Contract, he wouldn’t have been able to hold back from using it until now." Li Xiu inwardly chuckled.

But in Li Xiu’s opinion, Chu Jun’s White Lotus was quite useful; things like medicine couldn’t be brought into the Land of Trial. With Chu Jun’s White Lotus, even if they got hurt, they could treat it promptly without leaving the Land of Trial.

The healing ability of the White Lotus wasn’t bad, and in no time, Chu Jun’s wound had scabbed over. Once scabbed, the White Lotus’s effect wasn’t as significant, so Chu Jun simply retracted it.

"To fully heal the wound would take too long; let’s check out what’s outside the other city gates first," Chu Jun said to Li Xiu.

"Let’s rest a bit first." Li Xiu estimated it was almost two hours; the next wave of Black Death Demons should be coming.

Li Xiu sat down to rest and took out the Seven-Colored Talent Gemstone, dropping blood on it.

Bewilderment (Growth Talent): D-Class, keeps one’s mind stable, less prone to outside confusion, with a certain chance to see through illusion techniques.

Li Xiu was somewhat surprised; he didn’t expect it to be a Growth Talent.

Currently, Li Xiu possesses one growth skill and two growth talents.

Li Xiu estimated more than two hours had passed, yet there was no sign of Black Death Demons, making him curious.

"Is it possible that entering Black Death City normally doesn’t have a two-hour interval for Black Death Demon raids?" Li Xiu muttered to himself, waiting a bit longer, sure that they had been in Black Death City for over two hours.

"How strange, is this Black Death City the one where I was pulled into by the Godslayer Shrine?" Li Xiu started doubting his previous judgment.

"City Lord, could I fight alongside you?" While Li Xiu was pondering, Ye Yuzhen suddenly appeared in front of him, looking intently at Li Xiu.

"Aren’t you already fighting with me now?" Li Xiu responded.

"I mean, fighting magical spirits like you do. I know I’m still weak and not much use to you, but please believe me; I will become someone useful to you. Please let me fight with you," Ye Yuzhen said earnestly.

"Do you know the story of the mouse learning to fly?" Li Xiu said, looking at Ye Yuzhen.

"No," Ye Yuzhen shook his head.

"A mouse had its family eaten by a cat. One day, it saw a bat flying in the sky and was overjoyed, thinking it could fly like the bat, which looked similar to it, and it wouldn’t fear cats anymore. So it started learning to fly. Do you know the end of the story?" Li Xiu continued, looking at Ye Yuzhen.

Ye Yuzhen’s face turned pale, and his fists clenched tightly, knuckles turning white.

"Li Xiu, that’s too harsh," Chu Jun couldn’t bear it anymore and said aloud.

"Harsh, but life-preserving. The Land of Trial is fraught with peril; even Trial Takers with exceptional talent and strength can lose their lives if not careful. Are you truly prepared?" Li Xiu said calmly.

Inside, Ye Yuzhen’s heart was bleeding. All along, he only hoped his sister could make something of herself.

Because his sister had the talent of a Magic Armor Master, while he did not. So he was willing to sacrifice himself for everything that Ye Xiyuan needed.

But today, after traversing the Dark Maze with Li Xiu and slaying Black Death Demons, he suddenly realized how formidable a Trial Taker could be.

Although he lacked the talent of a Magic Armor Master, if he put in his utmost effort, he might be as strong as Li Xiu and the others someday.

Yet, as soon as this glimmer of hope arose, Li Xiu dashed it with a cold dose of reality.

"Do Trial Takers also need talent? Is talent that important?" Ye Yuzhen said bitterly.

"Yes, talent is crucial. A mouse cannot ascend to the sky, wild grass can only serve as fodder for sheep, and talent dictates what you can and cannot do," Li Xiu replied with some indifference.

"I understand," Ye Yuzhen said dejectedly, sitting down.

"No, you don’t understand," Li Xiu said coldly.

"Li Xiu, isn’t this enough? Must you be so discouraging?" Chu Jun said, frowning.

Ignoring him, Li Xiu looked at Ye Yuzhen, saying, "A mouse can’t fly, and grass can’t eat sheep, yet are mice extinct? Aren’t there grasses that even beings stronger than sheep dare not touch?"

Ye Yuzhen abruptly lifted his head, staring intently at Li Xiu.

"It seems you haven’t figured it out yet. When you do, come find me," Li Xiu stood up, called out to Chu Jun and Ah Fei, "Let’s go, let’s check the other city gates."
