Chapter 178 Insane Reward! Ultimate Risk…

“It has been ninety-eight days since you entered the Five Elements Hall!” The three-headed giant said.

“Ninety-eight days? That’s not too bad,” Yang Dingtian felt a sense of relief.

However, the three-headed giant once said that even the most exceptional Mystic Martial Artist will have to take at least half a year before clearing the palace and reaching the three star Great Mystic Martial Master level. But Yang Dingtian has broken through four secret palaces and broke through the five star Great Mystic Martial Master in just ninety-eight days.

If that were the case, then Yang Dingtian would have time for two more major breakthroughs before the Great Martial Duel tomorrow, which was more than two hundred days away from here. Firstly, he could try to master the third tier of the Pig Slaying Sword Art. Secondly, he could also practice the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.

Only a Martial Mystic could practice the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame, and the current Yang Dingtian was still five levels away from that. However, if he were to get lucky, picking up the third tier of the Pig Slaying Sword Art might help him to have a significant breakthrough, which might bring him a step closer to becoming a Martial Mystic.

Therefore, it was imperative to master the third tier of the Pig Slaying Sword Art. However, the scroll of the third tier of the Pig Slaying Sword Art was probably still in the Hidden Arts Pavilion of Cloud Heaven City, as the mysterious black hooded man only gave Yanyan the scroll for the second tier of the Pig Slaying Sword Art.

So, was there any way for Yang Dingtian to smoothly retrieve the scroll from Cloud Heaven City? Out of the blue, a crazy and dangerous idea popped out of Yang Dingtian’s mind, an idea that would allow him to enter the city and take the scroll effortlessly. On the other hand, Yang Dingtian was also dying to find out the situation of sister Ning Ning, to know whether did she fall into the hands of Ximen Ju’s gang?

At that moment, Yang Dingtian couldn’t wait to return to Cloud Heaven City, to go back with a different identity.

“So, can I leave now?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“You can leave at any time. The sea bottom is right behind the sixth door of the fourth room, you may leave the secret realm from any door.” The three-headed giant replied.

“I will leave right away then, thank you for your care during this time.” Yang Dingtian said as he bowed in gratitude.

“Wait.” The three-headed giant said, “According to the rules of the secret realm, as long as you breakthrough one element of rooms, you can get a mystic talisman of that element. You have broken through four different palaces, so you can pick one talisman among the ice, fire, wind, and gold element as a reward.”

A foreign element talisman? Yang Dingtian’s heart started to pound furiously. We were talking about a true piece of legendary treasure that had only been a myth, never before seen.

By having the talisman of a different element, one would be able to possess the attack attributes of that particular element. For example, a fire martial artist with the ice talisman would be able to perform an ice blade skill, how amazing would that be.

Meaning to say, Yang Dingtian would be able to perform skills and techniques of an ice martial artist if he had the ice element talisman, and that would enable him to drastically increase the power of his Earth Seal Sword. Apart from that, Yang Dingtian could also combine the ice and fire element in a battle, making him an even more deadlier fighter.

Therefore, a foreign element talisman was definitely a cheat code. Also, the effect of this mystic talisman could be increased through cultivating. Once it reached a certain level, the power would be on par with another martial spirit, and maybe even more mysterious.

“Please choose a talisman of an element as your reward.” The three-headed giant said.

“I shall go with the ice element,” Yang Dingtian replied.

The ideal choice would definitely be the thunder element talisman if it were among the options because a thunder talisman is extremely rare and is the true ultra killer technique. However, the thunder room was way too sick, completely impossible to pass.

As a result, the ice element talisman would be a clear alternative option for Yang Dingtian.

Even though the ice element clashes with Yang Dingtian’s meridians, but it would surprise anyone when a fire element artist like Yang Dingtian would release an ice element attack. In addition to that, the power of an ice-fire combination attack would be unmatchable. Therefore, a wind element artist should pick the gold element talisman, and a fire artist should choose the ice talisman.

The three-headed giant took out a sparkling blue jade talisman from his skull and placed it on Yang Dingtian’s palm. Yang Dingtian instantly felt a soothing sense of coolness, along with the infinite vitality within it.


There was actually another powerful use for this talisman, it could absorb the damage from its own element. In other words, the ice talisman could help its owner to absorb a certain amount of damage while fighting against an ice element expert. It could even devour more ice energy as it would grow stronger. In theory, this talisman could help Yang Dingtian avoid all ice damage when it would reach a certain level. However, this very ice talisman now was still an infant, it needed to absorb large amounts of ice energy to grow stronger.

Yang Dingtian carefully placed the ice talisman into his ring of storage, fearing that it would be damaged by his own meridians. After all, it was still too fragile at the moment.

“Thank you for your gift, big guy.” Yang Dingtian said. “I shall make my move.”

The three-headed giant did not respond and only prepared to retract to the original sculpture form. Before transforming back, the giant seemed to think of something and said, “Trainee, are you willing to accept the infernal trial mission? There will be better rewards.”

“What trial mission? Where is it held? What reward?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“Breakthrough the thunder palace. Once completed, you will be rewarded with a thunder talisman and a volume of thunder mystic skills scroll,” said the giant.

Yang Dingtian got extremely excited for an instant. Both the rewards mentioned were super valuable; just getting hold of either one of them could make the whole world insane.

The thunder talisman could make all of Yang Dingtian’s attacks contain thunder damage, and thunder attacks were definitely a cheat code, absolutely no way to defend against it. So if someone were to use a thunder martial or mystic skill in this world, everyone would fear him despite his level of qi. This was because of all thunder artists had a strong and mysterious background. However, there were only a few thunder element users in the world.

For the past 100 years, there was only one known expert from the Sea of Hades, who was a thunder mystic skill user. Even earlier than that, only people from the Hidden Sect and Shrine of Extermination were known to be thunder element users.

Even though a thunder martial spirit was extremely rare, but it could still be occasionally seen between every few decades. As for thunder mystic and martial skills, it was never before seen. This was because a thunder secret scroll was very rare, and so were the people that possess the qi of thunder element.

But things would be different if you were to have a thunder talisman. With it, anyone could be capable of using thunder mystic skills. Of course, the thunder talisman was way harder to cultivate as compared to the ice one, but there was a type of crystal that naturally contained thunder within it that could be used to cultivate the thunder talisman, although the price of it was ridiculously high.

These two rewards were really incredibly tempting. Just imagine if Yang Dingtian had the thunder talisman, he could combine all three ice, fire and thunder to launch an attack, how amazing would that be.

Despite the temptation, Yang Dingtian still shook his head and said, “Forget it, I give up this task, because the thunder palace is really too sick, and I have no time.”

“There will only be one chance for this trial mission, and the whole process would only take around seven to eight minutes. The winner would be able to get the two prizes at the end of the room and leave the secret realm. The loser, however, will die in the room,” said the three-headed giant.

Only seven or eight minutes to get through five thunder room? That was way too fast. Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and shook his head.

“Forget it, I still give up. Even though the reward is incomparably attractive, but I still give up. The thunder palace is really too tough, it is impossible to pass through with my current ability.”

“The infernal trial mission does not really require the qi level of a person, it is more on the wisdom,” says the three-headed giant. “With wisdom, even beginners can breakthrough the five thunder rooms. As for those who lack wisdom, even a master level individual would have his soul ripped apart.”

Yang Dingtian still shook his head and said, “Forget it, I don’t have an absolute grasp of my wisdom.”

“If that is the case, goodbye.” The three-headed giant said as he transformed back into a sculpture.

Yang Dingtian walked towards the room of the golden palace and decided to leave this place via the sixth door of the golden palace. Suddenly, Yang Dingtian seemed to think of something and asked, “Hey, big guy, can the infernal trial of the thunder palace awaken a sleeping soul in my mind?”

The three-headed giant opened his eyes and paused for awhile as if he were searching through his memories.

“Yes, there is a great use,” says the giant. “The energy of the thunder element has an indescribable effect on activating all sleeping souls.”

Yang Dingtian got excited immediately, did that mean that he could awaken the sleeping soul of his master that was deep within his mind during the infernal trial of the thunder palace? It has already been a few months, his master’s soul was still not awakened yet.

Putting aside the fact that Yang Dingtian missed his master a lot, he was also unable to find the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame without the master’s help.

The scroll that Ning Rouler gave him might be related to the map of the mystic flame, but Yang Dingtian couldn’t even understand the writings on the map. Whereas his master, who had explored the world, should be able to understand it.

Of course, even without all of these, Yang Dingtian was still dying for his master, Dongfang Niemie, to wake up, even if it was only talking to him. However, Yang Dingtian had already seen the difficulty of the thunder palace, it was seriously sickening, and entering it would be extremely dangerous.

Apparently, the duration of the whole process was short, all it took was around seven minutes. If successful, the master might wake up, and he could get the thunder talisman and thunder mystic skills, and then head for Cloud Heaven City to seek the third tier of the Pig Slaying Sword Art. But if he were to fail, he would just die inside the room.

The three-headed giant has already said that this infernal trial mission relied on wisdom, not on the qi.
