Chapter 95
🕑 Added 2024-03-09 05:00:01 +0000 UTC"Teacher finally opened the Seven Star Cave World."
"When was the last time Teacher opened the Seven Star Cave World?"
"I remember it was three hundred years ago."
The twelve figures chatted with each other, all seeming very relaxed.
Usually, they, as senior brothers, each had their own things to do, making it difficult for them to gather like this.
"There are quite a few good talents appearing in this test, otherwise Teacher wouldn't have opened the Seven Star Cave World."
"I heard there is a three-eyed member of the Human Race. Senior Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, if you're not interested, I'll reserve this three-eyed member in advance."
"Hehehe, the status of the three-eyed race in the Human Alliance is special. Recruiting a member of the three-eyed race is equivalent to making connections with other high-level three-eyed races. I also want to compete for it."
The twelve figures all spoke up.
The three-eyed race is rare in number, but their talent is extremely powerful. Currently, in human civilization, the number of three-eyed race members does not exceed one hundred thousand and is scattered throughout various territories.
Therefore, even without direct blood ties, there is a certain unique closeness between members of the three-eyed race. Just like meeting a fellow countryman in a foreign land. With the talent of the three-eyed race, it is easy to produce high-level evolvers.
Taking in a member of the three-eyed race is equivalent to having a relationship with these high-level evolvers in the future, no matter what they do, they have someone to discuss it with.
Of course, even without this relationship, the twelve figures are also willing to accept them as disciples. After all, talent speaks for itself. With careful cultivation, a member of the three-eyed race can easily reach Rank 6.
"I'm not interested in the three-eyed race, but I'll take that Silver Spirit."
At this moment, the first figure at the top spoke slowly.
The Silver Spirit refers to that silver-haired woman, praised by the Lord of the Red Kun Star Domain for her talent in spatial matters. She is one of the three Crimson Mark and ranked first among the hundreds of thousands of evolvers this time.
"Since Senior Brother has spoken, then she belongs to Senior Brother."
"This Silver Spirit has considerable talent in spatial matters, and only Senior Brother has the ability to cultivate her."
"Well said."
The remaining eleven figures commented.
They then began to evaluate other evolvers.
Among the hundreds of thousands of evolvers, only three Crimson Marks and a few Gold Marks were worth their attention. As for the rest of the evolvers, they would have to reach the Seventh Star Cave first.
"Is this the First Star Cave?"
Lin Yuan began to observe his surroundings.
According to the information provided by Fang Qing, the test content of the First Star Cave is very likely to be related to physical aspects. Of course, it's not absolute, but if it's not physical, it would be soul-related, or mental consciousness, insight, and so on.
Swoosh.
Just as Lin Yuan was observing, other evolvers were also transported from the White Jade Square.
Many evolvers looked around nervously.
The surroundings were not complicated, resembling a wilderness, with a wide black track in the middle, stretching tens of li wide.
When all the evolvers had arrived.
The towering figure appeared again.
"The test of the First Star Cave is very simple. Walk to the end of this black track."
The towering figure raised his hand and pointed to the black track. "Within a month, as long as you reach the end, you can enter the Second Star Cave."
After speaking, the towering figure disappeared.
The scene immediately fell into a huge commotion.
It's not that the test is too difficult.
But it's too simple.
The black track is tens of li wide and at most a hundred li long. It means completing a hundred li within a month.
Even an ordinary citizen could walk a hundred li in a day or two.
Moreover, the lowest level here is Rank 3 evolvers.
"Arrive at the end?"
Lin Yuan didn't act rashly but stood still and observed.
He believed the test wouldn't be that simple. In all the previous tests of the Seven Star Cave, the elimination rate of the First Star Cave was terrifyingly high.
"Let others try first."
Lin Yuan wasn't in a hurry. He could stay in each cave for a month. Even if he stayed here for a month, as long as he entered the Second Star Cave at the last minute, it wouldn't matter.
"There should be someone who can't hold back."
Lin Yuan's gaze swept around.
In just a moment, several Silver Mark evolvers were starting to show signs of impatience.
Among the hundreds of thousands of evolvers, the majority were Silver Mark evolvers. When Crimson Marks and Gold Marks were added together, they only totaled a little over one hundred.
Just imagine, each Silver Mark evolver is among the top ten on their respective planets, towering above all. However, upon arriving in the Seven Star Cave World, they find that there are over a million such existences.
The disparity before and after has caused a change in the mentality of some Silver Mark evolvers.
"Let's see what this Seven Star Cave test has to offer."
A burly man with a wild appearance stepped forward.
The moment this burly man exuded Rank 3 aura and stepped forward, he was stared at by hundreds of thousands of evolvers.
"Damn, the pressure is intense."
The burly man's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. It should be noted that the gazes of over a million individuals were all from Rank 3 to Rank 4 evolvers.
Boom.
Under everyone's gaze.
The burly man stepped onto the black track.
"Hmm?"
The burly man's expression changed slightly.
He took another step.
Then two steps.
Then five steps.
After walking for about a hundred meters.
The burly man finally stopped.
"It's gravity."
"As soon as you enter the range of the black track, you enter a gravity zone."
"The farther you walk, the stronger the gravity. At my current distance, I'm facing gravity about five to seven times stronger than that of a normal planet."
The burly man spoke directly.
He wasn't lying, as other evolvers would realize as soon as they tried it.
"A gravity zone?"
"Is this test about physical strength?"
"Hehe, how fortunate, physical strength happens to be my specialty."
Countless evolvers murmured, their eyes fixed on the black track stretching for li, each with their own thoughts.
"Just a hundred meters and the gravity is already five to seven times stronger. In the area near the end, won't the gravity reach thousands of times?"
A Gold Mark evolver pondered with a thoughtful expression.
As the black track stretches for li, the closer to the end, the stronger the gravity.
"The gravity at the end area is at least three thousand times stronger. Just based on this, it could eliminate seventy to eighty percent of evolvers."
Another Gold Mark evolver glanced at the Silver Mark evolvers around him who were eager to try and silently thought to himself.
For Rank 3 evolvers, tens or hundreds of times gravity isn't much of a difficulty. But once the number exceeds a thousand times, it's a different story.
Gravity affects the five internal organs and six viscera, down to the cellular level. If physical strength is only strong on the surface or the skin is tough, it's basically useless against gravity.
"So it's a gravity test."
Lin Yuan pondered.
Indeed, this was a good way to test physical strength. Compared to simply testing strength and endurance, a gravity test works from the outside in, eliminating many evolvers who rely too heavily on their physical bodies.
"But now, the farthest evolvers have only walked less than a kilometer. I'm not in a hurry. Let's see how strong the gravity is further ahead."
While Lin Yuan was contemplating, thousands of evolvers had already voluntarily entered the black track.
Dozens of them had already walked seven to eight hundred meters.
And through communication, it was revealed that in the seven to eight hundred meters area, gravity had already reached tens of times the normal gravity.
Half an hour later.
Ninety percent of the evolvers had entered the black track.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan didn't find anything unexpected. After confirming that the black track only had gravity, he also walked up.
Ten meters.
A hundred meters.
A kilometer.
Ten kilometers.
Unconsciously.
Lin Yuan had walked over ten thousand meters.
"I finally feel something."
Lin Yuan thought to himself.
Although the cultivation system in the Divine Weapon World was distorted, it was indeed good for refining the body. From refining the skin to the blood, the organs to the bones, every part of the body had been forged.
So the gravity zone in the black track didn't put any pressure on Lin Yuan.
It was only after the first ten thousand meters that Lin Yuan became slightly more serious.
And the gravity in the first ten thousand meters area had already exceeded a thousand times.
A thousand times gravity is enough to crush an ordinary citizen in an instant.
Ordinary Rank 1 and Rank 2 evolvers wouldn't survive more than a few seconds under such gravity.
But in Lin Yuan's eyes, it was nothing. Up until now, he had relied entirely on his physical body to withstand it, without using any means.
Such as deploying the Tai Chi Domain.
Or using secret techniques to temporarily enhance physical strength, and so on.
At the twenty-thousand-meter mark on the black track.
"I was one of the first few evolvers to enter the track, and it took me several hours to walk half the length of the black track."
"At this speed, I should be among the top fifty, right?"
Trista took a deep breath and stopped to take a break.
As a Rank 4 evolver under a hundred years old, Trista's strength was undisputedly the first on their planet.
Whether it was in this competition or in previous ones, it was rare to see Rank 4 evolvers.
Like the medium-life planet Canglan Star, it hadn't seen a Rank 4 evolver for hundreds of thousands of years.
Originally, Trista was quite confident. He came from a big family and was aware of the test of the Lord of the Red Kun Star Domain and the Seven Star Cave test.
But in the end, when he was brought into the Seven Star Cave World, Trista was actually given a Silver Mark?
The same 'Silver Mark' as those Rank 3 evolvers? This was unacceptable to Trista. He didn't dare to hope for the highest Crimson Mark, but at least give him a Gold Mark? According to Trista's knowledge, all the evolvers in this Seven Star Cave test were in the Rank 3 to Rank 4 range.
In other words, those Gold Marks and Crimson Marks are all Rank 4 evolvers like Trista.
Being at the same Rank 4, why were they Gold Marks and Crimson Mark, while Trista was a Silver Mark?
"The starting point doesn't mean anything. I, Trista, will definitely pass through all seven star caves and join the lineage of the Red Kun."
Trista steadied himself, reluctantly lifting his right foot to continue moving forward.
Just then.
Trista heard faint footsteps.
"Someone's coming after me?"
Trista looked back.
He saw a young man walking leisurely towards him.
If Trista hadn't been sure about the gravity around him being over two thousand times normal, he might have thought the young man was just taking a stroll in his own garden.
"Why is he... why is he so at ease?"
Trista couldn't believe it.
To be honest, Trista was already feeling the strain. Although two thousand times gravity wasn't his limit, it wasn't easy either.
"He's a Gold Mark."
Trista observed the hint of gold on the young man's profile.
"Is this the Gold Mark candidate recognized by the Star Lord?"
Trista thought quickly.
Regardless of other aspects, the young man's performance meant that in terms of physical strength, he could easily surpass Trista.
"It's terrifying, his speed hasn't changed from start to finish."
Trista sighed.
While Trista was observing Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan also glanced at Trista.
"I've seen the Gold Mark, sir."
Trista immediately turned around, disregarding the terrifying pressure around him, and respectfully bowed to Lin Yuan.
There was no other way.
The test of the first star cave was to reach the black track.
In other words, all that was required was for the evolvers to walk across the black track.
There were no restrictions against attacking each other.
Now, most of Trista's strength was used to resist gravity.
Seeing Lin Yuan display such a relaxed attitude, his strength probably wasn't affected much.
In this situation, if Trista dared to show disrespect and made Lin Yuan unhappy, he could easily sweep Trista out of the competition.
"This is the strength of a Gold Mark candidate."
Trista sighed, dissolving much of his reluctance.
"Quite polite."
Lin Yuan just glanced at Trista and continued forward.
All the way, Lin Yuan continuously surpassed one evolver after another. Other evolvers, when they saw him, mostly showed surprise and fear, afraid that Lin Yuan would take advantage of the situation to attack them.
Time passed.
Soon.
Lin Yuan entered the forty-thousand-meter area.
The entire black track had already been covered four-fifths of the way.
The gravity in this area had reached four thousand times.
"Still manageable."
Lin Yuan's speed remained unchanged. Up to now, he hadn't used the Tai Chi Domain, relying solely on his physical body to resist gravity.
Because Fang Qing had said that everything in the Seven Star Cave test would be seen by the twelve disciples of the Lord of the Red Kun Star Domain.
Since the test of the first star cave was about physical strength, Lin Yuan chose to resist with his physical body.
Not only could this elevate his evaluation, but at the very least, it wouldn't decrease it.
In the forty-thousand-meter area, there were hardly any people in sight.
"Hmm?"
"Someone ahead."
After walking for a while, Lin Yuan faintly saw a figure in the mist ahead.
At this moment, the figure seemed to be struggling, taking one step at a time, seemingly adapting.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan walked closer, catching a glimpse of the figure.
It was a woman with green hair, exuding a certain ethereal aura.
Furthermore, she was also a candidate for the Gold Mark test.
"Hello."
The green-haired woman saw Lin Yuan looking at her, and a trace of nervousness appeared on her face.
Even though the gravity was over four thousand times, she hadn't revealed her trump card yet. But Lin Yuan's condition was obviously better than hers. If he suddenly made a move, it would be troublesome.
In other places, if you couldn't win, you could still run.
But in the black track, under thousands of times gravity, your speed was reduced to the extreme.
"Hello."
Lin Yuan nodded.
Continuing to maintain his speed, he walked towards the finish line.
Seeing this scene, the green-haired woman visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
Several hours later.
Lin Yuan successfully completed the hundred-li track and arrived at the second star cave.
"Hmm?"
Lin Yuan looked around.
