Chapter 212: Ch 212: Trials and Opportunities
Emrys looked around in confusion, only to find himself standing on a huge platform.
He was irritated by continuous scene change. Just now, he was obviously talking to Ling Xiaolong whose figure still couldn’t be seen, and in the next moment, he was teleported to an entirely different place.
Shaking his head, Emrys recalled his conversation with Ling Xiaolong and couldn’t help but suck in a deep breath of air.
He now understands many things and has answers to several questions. It turned out that the Eternal Paradise is actually a huge force standing at the top of the Inked Tale Omniverse.
What is the Inked Tale Omniverse?
Emrys recalled the information he obtained from Ling Xiaolong. It turned out that the Inked Tale Omniverse is actually...
"Oh, a new person has appeared. Interesting!"
While Emrys was still recalling his conversation with Ling Xiaolong, his thoughts were interrupted by a sudden sound. This sound didn’t end here. A few more sentences entered his ears.
"I wonder what Cosmic Field he comes from? What are the characteristics of his Cosmic Field?"
"He doesn’t look like a devil or a demon, and he is definitely not a human. What race does he belong to?"
Emrys heard several voices coming around him, but he couldn’t see any of them.
The last sentence that entered his ears attracted his attention the most, and he couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
Yes, he was no longer a human.
He used to be a human, but not anymore.
This is all due to Ling Xiaolong, the Soulforge Prism Orb, and his own race, which was marked with three question marks (???) and was dormant all along.
As for how, let’s talk about this later.
While he couldn’t see anyone, in the meantime, a surge of information appeared in Emrys’s head, and he got a basic grasp of the situation after absorbing the information.
It turned out that this place was actually a world that existed inside the Second Layer of the Eternal Paradise, and everyone here came from different Cosmic Fields. The majority of them have yet to enter the Vast Expanse of Eternity, and since that’s the case, it naturally means the strongest experts in this world all have yet to reach or break the limit of their corresponding Cosmic Fields.
This world is completely different from other worlds. First of all, there are no natives in this world. Secondly, people don’t live here just to live a comfortable life. This world is sort of a trial world, filled with many trial grounds.
The three trials that Emrys took before he was able to see the Eternal Paradise also existed in this world that is located on the second floor of the Eternal Paradise.
People in this world challenge, and try to pass the trials. Every trial gives them a reward that can help them become strong.
The place where Emrys was standing was called E-Region in this world.
E-Region is a huge territory, stretching for millions of miles. He was standing on the welcoming platform.
Every new person who enters this world for the first time appears on this platform.
The center of the E-Region was the resting zone.
A few pieces of information about this world surprised Emrys.
People could choose to stay here forever. Time passes normally here, however, no matter how much time a person spends during the trial, only one hour will pass in reality.
In simple words, even if someone spends a thousand or ten thousand years taking a trial, only one hour will pass in reality. However, they can keep all their improvements with them.
Nonetheless, death during the trial is real death. Only a few trials are set in a way where people won’t die even if they are killed.
Not to mention in this world, fighting was prohibited in the entire Eternal Paradise. But they were allowed to communicate and exchange knowledge with the geniuses from other Cosmic Fields.
The point to take notes is that the Eternal Paradise is actually a huge tower whose height couldn’t be seen by any means. There are many floors in the Eternal Paradise, and every floor is a separate world of various sizes.
Only the First Floor doesn’t have a world. It is like a normal floor but with a vast internal space. This is where people can check missions, accept missions, submit missions, receive rewards or punishments, and more.
If someone wants to ascend to the third floor, they have to complete at least three trials on the second floor.
There exist countless trials in this world, but passing only three can open the door to the third floor. It may sound very easy, but, it is not.
Passing the trials is not easy at all.
Countless people have been living in this world for hundreds of thousands of years, but they have yet to complete the trials needed to enter the third floor.
Just this fact is enough to prove how difficult it is to complete the trials.
Emrys turned his head around and began to take in his surroundings.
On the left side of the Welcoming Platform stood 36 Divine Pillars of unknown height, and their ends were covered in a veil of cloud, rendering them indistinguishable. All of them were engraved with countless patterns and symbols, which could be deciphered by consuming Eternal Points.
Every trial has different levels. Eternal Points can be obtained by passing levels of the trial a person is taking.
Emrys observed the Divine Pillars, and as he continued to observe them, he noticed that each of them represented different rhythms. Each rhythm contained within the aura of Wood, Earth, Metal, Water, Wind, Thunder, Light, Dark, Spatial, Time, Reincarnation, Decimation, Karma, Unlimited, Blade, Illusion, Poison, Love, Betrayal, Hatred, Anger, and many more bizarre things, including elements and emotions.
Other than the 36 Divine Pillars, Emrys also noticed the Eternal Rules Chart behind him that was suspended in the air high above, and he could also earn points from there.
As for what exactly is Eternal Rules Chart, Emrys doesn’t know. The information that flowed within his mind didn’t contain any information about the specifics of things and trials that exist inside this world. He only knows their names. As for the specifics, he has to explore it himself.
"This is... If I stay here and cultivate, wouldn’t it be too easy for me to become strong? My cultivation realms will skyrocket here."
Emrys’s heart began to race as he thought. He turned his head around and looked to his right.
Other than the 36 Divine Pillars and Eternal Rules Chart, Emrys also noticed seven monuments called Seven Divine Monuments. Every Divine Monument hides the inheritance of beings that are famous even in the Vast Expanse of Eternity/
What attracted Emrys’s attention the most was the eighth Divine Monument that was marked as forbidden. Moreover, the name of this Divine Monument was "Nightshade".
When Emrys saw this word, a beautiful figure appeared in his mind. This beautiful figure was Elysia Nightshade.
"Why is this monument called Nightshade?"
Emrys couldn’t help but mutter. Unfortunately, there was no one to answer him. He even doubted if this monument that is marked as forbidden is somehow related to Elysia Nightshade.
The thing that attracted him the most was actually information about three trials which are also the three most difficult trials to take on the second floor.
The first trial is related to Space, the second trial is related to Time, and the third Trial is related to Chaos.
The word "Chaos" reminded Emrys of the Cosmic Field he was teleported into. According to the six people, that Cosmic Field was called Chaos. Hell, he even knows about the cultivation realms in the Chaos.
Emrys was so shocked he did not know what to say. Even in his dreams, he had never expected that a place like this existed somewhere in the "Inked Tale Omniverse".
Other than these trials, Emrys also browsed through information that appeared in his mind and looked for some medium-leveled and low-leveled trials.
One of them was a huge stage extending up diagonally in the sky.
This was the Heaven Battle Stage. One could earn points by stepping onto the battle stage and engaging in battles. It is also one of many medium-level trial grounds.
The Heaven Battle Stage was actually a huge stair, much bigger and wider than the Sky Ladder Emrys climbed a few months ago.
Yes, it has already been a few months since Emrys arrived in the Eternal Paradise.
Each step of the Heaven Battle Stage is a battle stage where a person has to fight an opponent before they can climb higher.
"Are you shocked?"
Suddenly, a voice entered his ears once again.
This time, when Emrys turned, he was stunned. It is because he found five people standing not far from him, looking at him with smiles. Three of them were men, while the remaining two were women. The men had good-looking faces and imposing auras, while the women were pretty.
When they noticed that Emrys was looking at them, they bobbed their heads in greeting.
