Walker Of The Worlds

With the gate to the next area open, the group could now freely move on.

"Let's see what stands in our way next." Ziran said as he sent in the Glass Eye first.

~roll~

The glass eye swiftly traversed the floor and passed through the gate, arriving in the next area.

At the same time, Lin Mu had his own Spatial Perception active, trying to find anything suspicious.

"There's… a lot of Qi." Lin Mu discovered.

~shua~

The Glass eye transmitted the scene to the formation screen on Ziran's wrist, allowing others to see it too.

In the next area there was a dense amount of Qi in the air, which was unlike all other areas they had seen before. After all, the lack of Immortal Qi made the trial harder, as the participant could not recover their Qi stores this way.

They were forced to rely on the materials they might have brought with them or use whatever else they had available in the trial.

"Is there anything else?" Lady Kang asked, as she too peered at the screen.

"Nothing solid… The Qi sense of the Glass eye only says that there's a lot of Qi but nothing like an actual physical trap there." Ziran furrowed his brows as he assessed what might lay ahead. "Perhaps the Qi is obscuring whatever's behind it." He added.

"There's a way to check." Elder Hu said as he walked forward and stood in the gateway. "If the Qi is obscuring something, we just need to blow it away!" he said before punching with great force.

~WHOOSH~

An illusory gauntlet shot forward from his fist and entered the next area. There all the Qi that came into contact with it was blow away, while the gauntlet kept on flying uninterrupted.

This entire scene was visible on the formation screen, thus the group got to see just what was hiding behind the Qi.

A large statue of some kind stood tall in the next hall.

It had eight arms and four legs, with a faceless head. There were tens of eyes placed all over its body, looking rather eerie.

"That doesn't look good." Lin Mu muttered.

His spatial perception couldn't sense any immortal in the statue, but he had an irksome feeling that it was not just a normal statue.
