Weapon seller in the world of magic

Chapter 342 The Trial Of The Holy Beasts (Part-7)



Fujian island;

Amidst the corpses of thousands of fish and other aquatic creatures that washed up on the island, Lan Ju was busy talking about some serious matters with the stranger, who sent Mark to the trial without his consent.

"I have seen him up close. He is a lot more stubborn than an average human. Not to mention, the darkness in his heart is something he has yet to conquer," replied Lan Ju after hearing the stranger's plan. The zheng was sure that it is going to be failed because of Mark's personality.

Yuqiang didn't seem to agree with Lan Ju's opinion either. He said, "I don't know him but I'm well aware of a human's greed. I just need to compensate him with something after he finishes his trial. Tell me, what he likes more? Wealth or power?"

Lan Ju didn't know what this person has in mind but he was sure that Mark will not be pleased about the trial. But, anyway, there's not much he can do at the moment for he lacks the strength and willpower to go against a god.

In the end, he let out a sigh and said, "Lord Yuqiang, he gave away a divine sword to his high-quality puppet to use. So, I doubt he will appreciate it no matter what kind of weapon you give him.

As for skill books, his lightning bolt skill and his lightning clone are very powerful. Not to mention, his bloodline skills.

Hence, in my opinion, he might be satisfied with either gold or ether crystals. Or maybe, celestial materials like adamantium and mithril, which are almost impossible to be found in this mortal realm."

Yuqiang thought for a bit and nodded, "alright, I got it. Once I confirm that he was able to reach the 11th step, I will give take him to places with rare materials. There are actually a few on the ocean bed."

"Will he be able to go past the tenth level?" wondered Lan Ju as he glanced to his right. There was a scepter floating in mid-air, being enveloped by golden energy.

Meanwhile, inside the scepter, Mark was currently fighting alongside the lightning clone against a giant white snake.

Compared to all the previous monsters he faced, in the trial as well as in reality, this white snake is far bigger. Its tail was stretched for tens of kilometers long and Mark was smaller than a flea in its eyes. As a result, the gravity dome wasn't helping that much.

But, thanks to the difference in height, it also became very tough for the white snake to kill Mark and his lightning clone as they were moving at their peak speed.

*Ssssaaa*

As the white snake breathes out flames on a large scale, the lightning clone dodged it by taking a leap and landing on its back while Mark controlled his wings to cover himself.

The icy wings were perfectly able to block the flames and the lightning clone started running on top of its body, making its way to the head.

Within no time, the lightning clone reached its destination and proceeded to slide down.

Meanwhile, Mark spread his wings wide and stared at the snake. "Open skill interface," he mumbled.

Looking at the details of the skills, he thought, "There's still fifty seconds left for the Thunderblast to use again. Man, I really should have bought a few active skills. But then again, who could have expected that I would one day face an immortal realm beast? Anyways, let's focus."

As the clone reached its left eye to injure it for the seventh time during the past twelve minutes, Mark aided it by flapping his wings to soar into the sky to its height and threw an icy spear, which reduced his ether energy to as low as 10%.

The white snake saw a tiny clone near its eye, and despite the fact that it went through similar experiences for six times, it didn't defend against the clone and focused on the more powerful Mark and his icy spear that contained the power of a peak stage immortal realm expert.

*Sssaaaa*

It breathes out the flames once again, which melted the incoming icy spear, and Mark had to defend himself by covering himself with the wings, again.

Naturally, as he stopped flapping the wings, he started to freefall amidst the flames and crashed onto the ground.

A small crater formed and no injuries occurred to Mark, although it cannot be said the same for the beast.

The white snake's left eye started to bleed as the lightning clone gave consecutive punches. However, as it acted pretty quickly, it healed its eye and shook off its head, throwing away the clone far away.

The clone managed to land on its body, and meanwhile, Mark rose to his feet and backed away to recover his energy, just focusing on defending himself.

Half a minute later, the white snake appeared to have finally caught the clone in its spell. As there were spiral rings appeared in its eyes, the clone was slowly turning into a statue.

Within seconds, he turned into a complete statue and the white snake slammed its gigantic head onto it. The statue was broken into pieces, releasing a huge amount of energy and turning her mouth into a bloody pulp.

"Damn it." Mark gritted his teeth in anger. Taking a deep breath, he proceeded to click on the skill. "12 seconds to go. Let's hope its sacrifice hasn't gone in vain."

With the clone gone, the white snake's attention was firmly fixed on Mark. While recovering its mouth, it suddenly grew a pair of arms from its body that stretched toward him.

Mark quickly crouched down and covered himself with his icy wings to protect himself from any possible ambush. He then started counting down the time.

"8, 7, 6, 5…"

When he reached five, the two arms reached him with the goal of poisoning him with a simple touch. However, due to the "No touch" passive skill, it didn't go how the beast wanted it to go.

As its cultivation realm and strength are significantly higher than Mark, the invisible force that escaped from his body made him fly in the reverse direction instead of pushing away its arms

In reflex, Mark spread his wings wildly and stopped in mid-air. He then glanced at the holographic screen floating in front of his eyes and a smile escaped from him right away.

"Thunderblast, activate."

He clicked on the skill.

The lightning bolt made its appearance for the third time in this trial and struck its head precisely. This time, it was yellow in color.

The white snake's head burst open and the rest of the white snake's body fell down with a heavy thud.

"Did I get it?" Mark wondered out loud.

But, in the next couple of seconds, his facial expression changed as instead of disappearing, flesh slowly started to form and its head was about to reform into new albeit at a slow pace.

"Fu*k, I might have missed hitting its core due to its leaning posture." Mark cursed out aloud in frustration. Taking a deep breath, he mumbled, "If I wait five more minutes, it would be healed anew. I need to act faster but I don't have much ether energy left either. Should I wait and give it another try or should I go for an upgrade?"

In three seconds, Mark made his choice. He concentrated on his storage ring and took out a black colored pill.

Taking a glance at the fallen white snake and then at the pill, Mark mumbled, "well, there's one more enemy to defeat anyway. If it is going to be a lot stronger than this white snake, then, I might need more power from the lightning bolt with a shorter duration of cooldown timer."

After a bit of hesitancy, he finally swallowed the advanced-grade intelligence pill, raising his original "INT" to 9.6, effectively turning the amulet of magic into a useless item from now onwards.

But, there's no regret in his heart. After all, his survival is at stake here, well, atleast that's what he believed as he wasn't explained anything about the rules of the trial beforehand.

After making a breakthrough to rank 9, he checked upon the skills, specifically the Thunderblast skill that depends on his INT stat. In an instant, his facial expression changed and he broke out into a smile.

"Yes, now, this is something I needed at the moment. I made the right choice." Mark's mood became a lot better all of a sudden as he stared at the details of the skill.

Thunderblast (Lv-9): Summon a lightning bolt from the heavens to strike down the enemy with 150% attack power (max: 12.5). Cost: 50% ether. CD: None.
