Chapter 676: The Third Stage!
Translator: 549690339
After the orange light faded, a glazed plank road appeared in front of Liu Wen.
The plank road was covered by a layer of faint orange light, and the appearance of the material could not be seen clearly.
This end of the boardwalk was connected to the peak of a mountain, and the other end was hidden in the clouds.
Liu Wen bent down and gently pressed his hand on the starting point of the plank road.
This was a very warm material. Looking down through the faint orange light, one could see that the glass was engraved with fine array patterns.
These runes were very subtle and small, making it easy for people to let down their guard. However, Liu Wen’s eyes were able to magnify these details.
After zooming in on the array patterns below, one could clearly see that each array pattern was woven from countless curves. Spiritual energy gathered within and flowed in an orderly manner.
“Seven Star Glazed Plank Road.”
Liu Wen silently stood up and looked at the path of light in front of him.
The boardwalk was modeled after the Big Dipper. It looked very simple, but it was actually a very complicated maze.
This maze tested the array master’s ability to observe every fine pattern.
There were a total of seven pieces of square colored glass. Each piece was not big, only about ten feet square.
However, each piece was an independent formation.
Each of them was a sealed formation space. He had to find it in the previous array formation space. Only when he reached that intersection could he lead to the next space. After doing this seven times, he could reach the end.
“This is only the third stage and it’s already this difficult.”
Liu Wen did not expect himself to return to Ping Cheng so confidently. He thought that he would definitely be able to achieve a good result in the competition, but he was forced to show off his strength right away.
However, time was limited. He had to pass this place as soon as possible. Otherwise, if someone else completed the mission first, he might not be able to get a good ranking.
He stepped on the first tablet.
The scene in front of him flashed. He suddenly appeared in a primitive forest. A beam of light landed on his body. Around him were 19 towering ancient trees. They formed a circle and surrounded Liu Wen very tightly.
Every ancient tree was carved with dense patterns, like the tracks of ants crawling out. All the patterns covered the thick trunk.
Looking over, even these array diagrams were enough to make people dizzy. If it wasn’t for the fact that someone with two years of array master attainment had entered, they probably wouldn’t know what they were looking at and would think that they were all the same.
However, the patterns on these nineteen ancient trees were completely different.
Moreover, those who arrived here only had one chance to choose. As long as they made a wrong choice, they would immediately be eliminated. Only by making the right choice would they be able to successfully advance to the next formation.
The basis of his choice was under his feet. The formation patterns on that square piece of land were the only way out if they perfectly matched the patterns.
Liu Wen slowly sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.
Right at this moment, many Liu Wens seemed to be called out from his body. Those transparent shadows dashed out one by one and arrived in front of the 19 ancient trees.
These shadows imitated Liu Wen and sat cross-legged in front of the tree, silently calculating in their hearts.
Time passed by.
All of a sudden, a small transparent person beside Liu Wen shone with golden light.
The body of the transparent little person was connected to the array patterns on the ancient tree in front of him, faintly reflecting each other.
Liu Wen suddenly opened his eyes. The other small people all returned to his body. He didn’t hesitate to enter the ancient tree that he had chosen.
The damp and rotten smell of the primeval forest disappeared, and a very dry sandstorm blew into Liu Wen’s nostrils.
The sandstorm was so strong that it made a rustling sound when it hit his skin.
This was a boundless desert, flat to the horizon, without any protruding areas.
In the northern sky, a bright star was shining.
A beam of light fell from the star and landed on the other side of the desert. It seemed to be guiding Liu Wen.
That is Liu Wen’s goal this time, as long as you can successfully reach there, you will pass this one pass.
However, this was not as easy as he had imagined.
A huge formation diagram that was one to three thousand feet in length and width appeared in the sky. After flickering twice, it smashed straight into the ground.
The formation was deeply embedded in the desert and disappeared. No one knew how deep it was embedded.
There were hundreds of thousands of lines on the main road, and among those lines, there was a single path that led to the final destination. This path was the path that Liu Wen wanted to take.
To find the only correct path among the hundreds of thousands of patterns, it was within the two short flashes just now.
In the other stages, many Grade 3 Array Masters had just arrived at the second stage with great difficulty. Just as they were about to accept the challenge, they were suddenly smashed by this huge array diagram.
They had only seen a rough picture and had yet to form a complete impression when that fellow suddenly disappeared. They had not even had a chance to see it again..
