Lin Wu looked on as the cultivators got ready to move on to the next level.

"Seems like it's time to make some changes." Lin Wu muttered as he adjusted the trial settings in the window.

The six cultivators reached the next level and saw the new carvings, which showed the birth of the Taiji Celestial. Just from looking at the carvings, the cultivators felt their hearts pound.

"What… what kind of a man is that?" The late stage condensation realm woman asked.

"Whoever he is… or was… is quite likely to be beyond anything that we know. There is no way that everything showed on the carvings happened in this world. Those look like different worlds beyond this one, even the Nascent soul realm soldier we saw in the last trial; that is not something we would see here.

To assign someone at the Nascent soul realm as a lowly soldier would be a great offense in our world. A nascent soul realm cultivator can easily be a clan head or even the sect master of a low ranked sect. Even in our sect nascent soul realm cultivators can directly become elders." Wang Xiong explained.

The rest of his companions nodded in understanding and looked around for the trial to start.

"Huh? Why hasn't it started yet?" Su Wen questioned.

And just as he said that, their consciousness faded and they appeared in the next trial. The reason it took them long was because Lin Wu was specifically changing the conditions of the trial. In total, there were going to be about twelve trials before they would have been able to reach the completion.

But Lin Wu made use of the functions that were available to him and shorted the trial to this single level. He was even able to figure out a way to pass the inheritance of the Taiji celestial himself. There were restrictions on how the rewards could not be controlled by him directly, but he found a loophole such that as long as the inheritance was given to the winner, the formations array would not find it to be an error.

Lin Wu did it for a few reasons.

First of all, he did not want others to know about the true story of the Taiji Immortal as he could tell this knowledge could be used as a trump card. The second reason was that he wanted to interact with the winner of the trial who was going to be Wang Xiong.

He had already determined to let him win and was going to make him his second pawn after Shirong. But this one was going to be used a bit differently. After getting the servants, Lin Wu had already figured out an outline for his future, and having some people under his control was one of the requirements.

The third reason was that it was soon going to be morning and he would have to be beside Shirong till then. He was still an important pawn and would have use for him for quite a while and thus did not want to give up on him.

If he finished the trial in one level, it would give him enough time to talk with Wang Xiong and also temperate back to Shirong. 

'I'll have to figure out a way to obtain a power source for the formation array. My own energy is not enough for it to work completely and it needs an integrated source.' Lin Wu thought.

He looked back at the screen and saw the six cultivators fighting against a group of Shadow dread beasts. They were having a hard time as not only did they need to battle the beasts, they also needed to deal with the shadows that would pop up from the ground.

Behind them, a tide of shadows could also be seen coming towards them. It was as if the shadows were a sea and the shadows extended and receded. 

"Dammit! What the hell is with the sudden increase in the difficulty?" One of the hate six cultivators said, feeling frustrated.

They had never expected that they would end up dealing with multiple things at once like this. They were only given one instruction at the start, which said to 'Survive'. It didn't even say for how long or how many beasts they needed to kill, which made them feel dread for the coming future.

Lin Wu watched on as their numbers started to decrease. The six cultivators had managed to kill about half of the shadow dread beasts when the tide finally came.

"Run! Escape the tide, the other beasts will die to it." Wang Xiong shouted.

His companions did as they were instructed to and flew away as fast as possible. But to their misfortune, among the Shadow dread beasts were some that could fly and thus they were able to keep up. 

~Shua~

The tide of shadows came and spread all over the ground. The shadow dread beasts that had been unable to keep up with them were lost within the shadows and could not be seen. Wang Xiong had a grin on his face as he saw the numbers of the beasts fall again.

"NOW! Kill them!" He ordered and lunged towards the flying Shadow dread beast that was targeting him. 

~Slash~

His Guan Dao moved like lightning and split the beast's wings in half, making it fall to the ground with a loud cry. The others did the same and managed to down the flying beasts that were targeting them. They descended to the ground and killed them, but just as they were about to leave, a screeching sound was heard.

~Splatter~

~Splatter~

Two bodies of the cultivators fell as blood spilled from their chests. They had been pierced by long claws and had their mouths wide open.

~Chomp~

Another sound was heard as one of the late stage core condensation realm cultivators' heads was crushed. In their assumption that the Shadow dread beasts would be killed by the Shadow tide, they made a grave mistake.

They were now surrounded by the shadow dread beasts.
