King Of Chaos

Chapter 22 Dangerous Trial

Ye Xiao walked alone for more than two hours and suddenly sensed something. He frowned and immediately started walking to his right side.

And he appeared in front of a corpse not long after that.

"What? Someone died?"

Ye Xiao's brows twitched and his heart filled with shock. He could tell that the dead person is someone from Green Cloud City. Ye Xiao did not find it strange to see someone from Green Cloud City here. After all, everyone had entered the Lost Forest. He was just shocked to see someone dead.

Who killed him?

Is it the people from Light Rain City or is this the result of internal strife over some sort of treasure? Or could it be that he was killed by a Tree Demon?

Ye Xiao could not understand. He was very confused.

Suddenly, a sharp vine shot toward him.

Ye Xiao immediately noticed it when the vines were growing rapidly. He immediately took out the Infinity Edge Blade and slashed out, easily severing the wine.

He then immediately looked around but did not find the one who ambushed him. He also tried to release his Divine Sense, only to notice that his Divine Sense was suppressed at this place.

"Whatever, I'll just keep going. If I encounter anything like this again, I'll not let the enemy run!"

Ye Xiao did not think anymore and directly advanced forward.

However, not long after he left, he found a corpse in another passageway.

Out of curiosity, he also rushed over.

This dead person was also from Green Cloud City.

"He actually died from a single strike that pierced his heart."

Ye Xiao looked at the corpse with a surprised expression.

He felt that the killer was pretty strong because the dead person was actually a Chaotic Transformation First Cycle cultivator. Although a person's Divine Sense was suppressed here, it was still not easy to kill a person without making a sound.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Ye Xiao seemed to have sensed something. He frowned and activated the Heavenly Demon Pupils.

The moment Ye Xiao activated the Heavenly Demon Pupil, his eyes turned completely red, like a demon. And the next instant, everything before Ye Xiao became clear. The trees and all kinds of obstacles seemed to have turned invisible. And Ye Xiao's gaze directly landed on his target.

Through the Heavenly Demon Pupils, Ye Xiao saw a figure walking in his direction. This was an expert from Green Cloud City, and he was also a Chaotic Transformation First Cycle cultivator.

Since that was the case, why not follow this person first, so that when the killer attack this person, he could see who was killing people one by one?

Immediately, Ye Xiao hid in a corner.

This newly arrived person was completely unaware that someone was hiding in front of him, and wanted to use him as a test subject to find the hidden enemy.

That person soon passed by the place where Ye Xiao was hidden and arrived in front of the corpse. He looked at the corpse and frowned. Then he checked the corpse for a while before shaking his head and leaving silently.

Ye Xiao immediately followed behind this person. At the same time, he kept using the Heavenly Demon Pupil to see if he could find the killer as well. But he was disappointed. The killer seemed to be well-versed in hiding. Even with Ye Xiao's Heavenly Demon Pupils, he was unable to find any traces of the enemy.

Just as he was silently following behind that person, he suddenly sensed something and stopped. Then he heard the sound of something tearing through the air and moving toward that person at an extremely fast speed.

"Swoosh!"

A vine stabbed at that person.

"Hmph, how dare an old rotten wood attack me. Break!"

The Chaotic Transformation First Cycle warrior waved the long sword in his hand and easily cut it apart.

However, just as the sharp vine was about to hit the ground...

"Shua! Shua!"

Another sound of something tearing through the air rang out.

But this time, it was not the vines that were attacking, but a sharp-edged long shaft made of wood. This sharp-edged long shaft acted like a sharp spear and tried to pierce through that person's chest, catching that person off-guard. However, his reaction speed was pretty fast, so he managed to dodge the vital point.

"Pfft!"

The sharp-edged shaft pierced his chest, but it was not the left side of his chest. However, after the long wood piece entered his body, it exploded.

"What?"

That person had not expected that he would be ambushed. If not for him being on extremely high alert after seeing the corpse of a fellow cultivator, he would not have been able to dodge the previous two attacks.

He hurriedly raised his head and tried to see his enemy, only to be greeted by a wooden claw grabbing at him.

A large claw directly grabbed him by his waist. That huge grip force crushed his bones until creaking sounds could be heard.

That person wanted to scream in pain but was unable to. And not long after, he died a miserable death as his body exploded, causing blood, tiny pieces of bones, and almost liquified-state flesh to splurt in every direction.

Ye Xiao witnessed everything, but he was still unable to see the enemy. This caused him to be on a high alert.

He clearly saw how that claw appeared. A ripple appeared in the space before that wooden claw suddenly emerged from the rippled space and grabbed at that person. The enemy was still hiding somewhere in dark.

But since this enemy was able to kill a Chaotic Transformation First Cycle cultivator so easily, it also meant that he or she was at least a Chaotic Transformation Third Cycle or even a Chaos Dust Realm warrior.

After waiting more than half an hour, Ye Xiao only came out of his hidden spot when he confirmed that the enemy was not reacting anymore.

However, it was at this moment he again felt the ripple in space right above his head.

Ye Xiao knew he was not the enemy's match. Without a second thought, he immediately used his teleportation ability and disappeared, reappearing thousands of meters away. Then he immediately started running at his fastest speed without turning back.

At the same time, he was cursing the person who sent him to complete this trial.

At first, he thought this trial was simple. He just has to explore the Lost Forest of Red Moon. He did not expect this trial to be so terrifying. Only now did he understand that he might even lose his life, but this is not something his mother warned him about. It also meant no one has ever died in the Golden Tower before.

But this was also understandable. Before sending him to complete the trial, the so-called Spirit Of Golden Tower clearly told him that everyone had gone through the same trials before, however, since Ye Xiao caught his eye, he will give Ye Xiao a different trial.

From different, he must mean more dangerous and almost impossible to complete. After all, this trial also involved many Chaos Dust Realm warriors. And there was also that unknown monster who might also be a Chaos Dust Realm monster.

As he was running away, he again came in front of another corpse. This corpse was intact, there was only a piercing wound at his heart.

This person also died in one shot.

Ye Xiao did not want to stay here for long, he immediately wanted to leave this place. However, his eyes suddenly fell on this person's hand.

Spatial Ring?

Ye Xiao's eyes lit up and he immediately removed the spatial ring from his hand. And then looked inside.

"What's going on? There's so much poison in there? There are also hidden weapons. Is this man an assassin?"

Ye Xiao curiously took a glance and discovered that the dead body was wearing black tights. And his face was very unfamiliar to him as well. He had not seen this person in either Green Cloud City's group or Light Rain City's group.

"No, that's not it. This man is not from Green Cloud City or Light Rain City. I have never seen him before!"

Ye Xiao suddenly realized.

If he was not from Green Cloud City and Light Rain City, then where did he come from?

Could there be another group of unknown people who found the Lost Forest of Red Moon?

Something was very fishy here.

Ye Xiao immediately knew that this matter was not simple.

However, the most important thing to do was to leave this place as soon as possible. Otherwise, the enemy might spot him again.

Immediately, he turned around and continued on his way.

However, two hours later, Ye Xiao froze in his spot. It is because he found himself standing at the spot where the Wooden Claw grabbed a man and caused his body to explode.

He clearly ran away from here, but in the end, he once again ended up coming to this place.

"Damn it!"

Ye Xiao cursed.
