Chapter 47: Only screening, not training
Chen Yue, who witnessed the black light ball growing continuously after absorbing his force, immediately made a judgment.
“We can’t go on like this!”
He quickly pulled out a prepared SS series throwing knife from his waist.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Yue concentrated all his energy, and then threw the throwing knife fiercely.
His body immediately retreated quickly to prevent unexpected situations.
The flying knife pierced the night sky, streaked through a streak of silver light, and headed straight for the dark ball of light.
"Gudu——"
When the flying knife was thrown out, it made only an inaudible sound like a small stone thrown into a pond.
Chen Yue stood in the distance, monitoring the development of the situation with all his concentration.
But in an instant, the SS-level flying knife that could cut the skin of a king-level monster was easily swallowed up by the black ball of light without causing any shock.
"It's really tricky..."
Chen Yue murmured in a low voice, his eyes shining with determination.
"Huhuhu~"
The wind roared in his ears, and Chen Yue watched the black ball of light alertly.
After the ball of light expanded to a certain limit, it stopped abruptly and stopped growing.
Immediately afterwards, it began to move strangely, very slowly at first, and its trajectory was irregular.
Suddenly——
Its speed surged and turned into a black lightning, heading straight for Chen Yue.
Chen Yue had already been on guard against the black ball of light. Feeling its acceleration, he reacted quickly.
His body flashed, trying to avoid this ominous ball of light.
However——
This black ball of light seemed to be alive, and seemed to be able to understand his every move.
He followed Chen Yue closely, like a shadow, lingering.
Fortunately, the ball of light did not continue to move at a constant high speed.
Every time it accelerates to the limit, it will suddenly decelerate, then accelerate again, and so on.
And Chen Yue was also chasing again and again, using his instantaneous speed, ultimate speed, and reaction speed to the extreme.
As time passed by, Chen Yue's breathing began to become rapid, and sweat dripped down his forehead.
Chen Yue knew that his force power was rapidly approaching the edge of exhaustion.
"We have to find a way." Countless tactics flashed through Chen Yue's mind like lightning.
At this time, his eyes inadvertently scanned the surrounding walls, and some runes seemed to be flickering slightly on those walls.
"Strength, speed, endurance..."
"Force consumption is a test of endurance, and the black ball of light is a test of speed!"
"That power...?"
“Could it be.”
A bold idea arose in his mind.
With no time to hesitate, Chen Yue grabbed the Shadow Blade.
He said silently in his heart: "Fight!"
He began to shuttle between the black ball of light and the wall at an astonishing speed.
Every time he reached a wall, he swung the knife violently.
"Ding Dong——"
As the tip of the knife collided with the runes on the wall, sparks flew out like exploding fireworks.
Chen Yue was surprised to find that every time he attacked, the size of the black ball of light shrank slightly.
"So, these runes are connected to the black ball. As long as they are destroyed, the black ball will dissipate!" He had an epiphany in his heart.
“The fifth level of "Xing Yao"!" Chen Yue shouted loudly, pushing his strength to the limit.
“Break it!” He roared angrily, his voice echoing in the empty room.
As time passed, the runes on the wall were broken one by one, and the black ball of light gradually shrank to only a faint glow.
Chen Yue felt that the Shadow Blade in his hand was almost knocked away. His force was close to being exhausted, and his whole body seemed to be crushed by a huge weight. "Come on, come on." Chen Yue gritted his teeth and insisted.
The handle of the knife in his hand was tightly grasped, and his will was as firm as iron, knowing that at this moment, he would never fall.
With the last swing of the knife, the last rune on the wall shattered with a sharp "click".
And the huge black ball of light, like a lake that had been drained of the last drop of water, completely disappeared.
Chen Yue's body then fell limp to the ground. He let out a long breath, and his eyes revealed a bit of relaxation and joy.
The fantasy space gradually dissipated, revealing Chen Yue's tired but satisfied smile.
————————
After the light and shadow dispersed, Chen Yue found that he was back in the spacious black hall before.
[Congratulations on passing the assessment task]
[Strength evaluation: excellent]
[Speed evaluation: special grade]
[Endurance evaluation: excellent]< br>
[Please go straight along the passage in front of you]
[Come to me to receive the assessment reward]
The wall in front of you began to gradually crack, the cracks gradually expanded, and finally formed a wide Three to four meters of passage.
This deep and mysterious passage evokes the desire to explore into the unknown depths. At the end of the passage, the light is overflowing, emitting an alluring light.
"Go and get the reward!" Chen Yue looked forward to it.
After passing through a dark passage, Chen Yue quickly entered a magnificent palace.
The colorful light swirls and flows in the hall, as bright and dazzling as a dream, mysterious and immersive.
"Buzzing——"
Dazzling colored lights gathered in the center, quickly outlining the outline of a huge, fuzzy human figure, and finally transformed into a shining bald crystal man.
【! @#￥%……&*】
With a smile, the bald crystal man said something.
Its appearance is very delicate, comparable to a handsome human being.
The communication watch on Chen Yue's wrist quickly translated: "Hello, Chen Yue."
Chen Yue was lost in thought at this time.
In the original work, Luo Feng entered the ruins of ancient civilization No. 9 and was detected to have a brain width of 21, thus entering the elite channel and performing a death mission.
Chen Yue remembered that Luo Feng's task requirement was for him to learn the master's secret manual on the wall of the secret room - "Basic 312 Styles".
In the end, it took Luo Feng one year and three months to complete the assessment after his telekinesis amplitude reached 16.
But Chen Yue is obviously different this time.
He was directly selected for assessment because his physical development exceeded the threshold requirement of 16.
It can be seen that there is an essential difference between the encounters between warriors and spiritual masters at the ruins of ancient civilization No. 9.
After a spiritual master enters, it is a process of training first and then assessment.
Of course this may be related to Hu Yanbo being a spiritual master.
When warriors enter, they will be assessed directly.
Only screening, not cultivating!
If you are not qualified, you will be immediately eliminated!
No wonder I haven’t heard of any other warriors being able to trigger the warrior elite channel.
Seeing that Chen Yue did not speak, the bald crystal man mistakenly thought that he was still in shock.
It said calmly: "No need to be surprised. I have been monitoring the history of human development on your planet, including the evolution of your writing, cultural changes, and the rise and fall of history, and I have not missed any of them. Therefore, I naturally I have mastered your language."
The bald crystal man still explained with a smile, "In order to make it easier for you to accept, I choose to talk to you in human form."
Chen. The more he restrained himself, he pretended to be curious and asked some other questions. The bald crystal man gave detailed answers without any hesitation.
Suddenly, the bald crystal man's eyes fell on the weapon on Chen Yue's chest.
He seemed to be stuck in memories.
