I Am The Young Master

Chapter 90: Pneumatic powered flight

——(POV Li Huang, Thinking about nothing so that he can focus)——

'Come on. Heaven-defying stuff, heaven-defying stuff, …' I tried to attract good stuff to myself so that I can benefit the most.

It didn't take long before I could feel some sort of attraction to dozen doors as I was focusing on it.

Opening my eyes I was glad that there are a high number of doors calling to me. I couldn't be sure about what this meant but the least I can say is that I have a high affinity with whatever is behind these doors.

Like one should do in this situation, I decided to cheat my way into the best door using the [Peeping eye of heaven]. I mean if you have something like this and decide to leave it to fate or some other bullshit like that you are a certified dumb ass.

Looking at each and every door that had created a connection to me, I checked them with [Peeping eye of heaven] and memorized their worth so that I can compare them to each other.

When I checked the last door and was ready to compare all of them, I saw that Hu Anjing was also standing beside me, in deep thought.

"What are you thinking about?" I asked her.

My voice seem to bring her out of her thoughts as she looked at me.

"I was thinking which door to choose. You see, I have a strong connection to these two doors so I don't know which one I should choose…" Hu Anjing said as she pointed to the doors and showed them to me.

"Hmm, let me see." I said and turned to the doors that were close to each other. Within a fraction of a second, I checked them with the peeping eye of heaven.

"I think the left one is the better choice. Don't forget to be ready for everything in there." I said as I pointed her to the better one between these two doors.

"Okay, but if it wasn't a good reward you have to buy something for me in return." She said. The way she said it, I could swear that she would love it if the reward turn out to be garbage.

"Sure." I didn't even need to think about it as I was sure that the reward is good.

She didn't hesitate any more and opened the door. The moment she opened the door, nothing happened from my point of view but when she stepped in, she wasn't anywhere to be seen.

'So it only shows what lay behind the door to the one who opened it…' That was the logical conclusion that I came up with.

Now it was my turn to go toward my door. For me the choice was simple, only one of them was truly worthy of entering.

No, all of the doors were worthy enough if you looked at them one by one but one of them is worth more than all of them combined. Yes, all of them combined! If this is not a treasure I don't know what is…

It took all my willpower from me to stay calm because this door could really contain the biggest treasure in this room.

'Hard work is good and all but cheating these tests of luck and fate is something else.' I thought as I was imagining the creator of this room coughing up blood.

I was about to open the door that I suddenly remembered something.

'Better the reward, harder the test. I can't believe that I forgot that!' I didn't waste time and put on different types of protective items and readied my best recovery pills and potions.

A minute later I was ready to get into whatever this test is. Opening the door I entered it without any more delay.

——(POV third person)——

The moment Li Huang entered the test location, he found himself afloat in relative darkness. It was a location with no gravity and nothing to see as far as the eye could see.

'Thankfully the creator of this test was not enough of an asshole to remove air from here or else I had nothing to do against it.' Li Huang thought as he added a storage ring filled with air to his to-do list.

Looking around he used Qi in his eyes to improve them a little but still, he couldn't see any structures and all he found was emptiness.

He tried expanding his Qi sense as far as he could but this didn't give him any different results, still no sign of a structure.

Seeing that this plan was futile, he come up with something else. What if he sent a pulse with his Qi sense to all sides? If there is a structure on its way before the pulse loses its power, it will bounce back and come back to him so he can find out where to go easily.

So he did just that. It didn't take him long to get a response from some structure. He was so glad that his idea worked that he forgot to plan about what to do when he found a structure.

He was in a no gravity space so it wasn't exactly a motion-friendly environment so he had to think of something to move toward the structure that he found.

If he was someone from the Chinese novels that he read before, he could attack himself to create an impact that would launch him backward, but Li Huang is not a masochist so that option doesn't exist for him.

What he came up with was using his scrolls to his advantage. If he uses a scroll to create air and activate it in the opposite direction of his destination, he can use the impact to move backward. In this place that gravity doesn't exist, he can move faster and easier using this method.

…

After using two scrolls to create air pressure for him like an engine, he reached his destination. Along the way, he didn't forget to use his [Bird Eye] to map the surroundings if this structure wasn't what he was looking for.

What he found was a corpse. It was the corpse of someone who he didn't think he would ever see. The corpse belonged to Han Junhui, twin brother of the current patriarch of the Sky Pillar Sect. It was easy to find out it was him as they looked the same and the story about his death in this trial is known to many. But Li Huang didn't think it had happened right here, in this formation.

The story goes like this, they were in a formation together but the situation made it so that they were separated from each other. After Han Junhui didn't come out of his test, his brother Han Junxiong tried his best to enter that specific test to look for his brother but he couldn't. That was the day that the world lost one of the Han twins.

'I could never think that someone like him died here. I guess you can never be ready enough…' Li Huang thought. It could have been the same for him if he didn't have those scrolls or didn't think of the pulsing Qi sense to locate structures.

He didn't think much and put Han Junhui's body in a storage ring and put his storage rings in a pouch, because it was a corpse he could put it in a storage ring but he couldn't do the same with his storage rings. He intended to return the body and his belongings to his family after the trial.

Sending out a new pulse of Qi sense out, he moved toward the next structure and left a chair floating here as a sign for his future structure detection.
