503: Chapter 503 The Frustrated Protagonist
On the other side.
Martial Immortal City.
On the main street.
"Dammit, this Deity will definitely get revenge one day!
Martial Immortal, is it!
To actually set up this kind of trial!
And these City Guards.
They were clearly set up intentionally by that Martial Immortal."
Ye Xuan walked out from the City Guard station, cursing under his breath.
Who could understand his plight?
He was a dignified powerhouse from the Immortal Realm.
It was one thing to be Reborn into the Lower Realm after falling.
But he was actually escorted into a cell by a few ants on the grounds of attacking the City Guard.
If he hadn't passed the trial again,
he would likely have had to stay in that cell for a while longer.
"Forget it, none of that matters.
What's more important is that this Deity needs to quickly obtain the Opportunity within the Martial Immortal Temple."
Ye Xuan shook his head.
He stopped thinking about those upsetting matters.
It had already been half an hour since
he entered Martial Immortal City.
He had wasted some time after entering,
and being seized by the City Guard had wasted even more time.
It was already getting a bit too late.
"However, why should this Deity worry!
After all, besides this Deity's formidable Aptitude,
which allowed me to be directly sucked into Martial Immortal City,
the rest are likely still outside the city, bitterly pondering how to enter!"
Ye Xuan smiled confidently.
Immediately, he began walking along the main street,
searching for a way to enter the Martial Immortal Temple.
"Hey, hey, hey, have you guys heard?
The Martial Immortal Temple trial this time is just as difficult as before!
It seems like no one from our Martial Immortal City has been able to pass the trial.
No wonder someone only joins the Martial Immortal Temple once every few hundred years."
"Is that so? That sounds exciting.
Then let's go take a look!
If we're late, it'll be too late.
It's only held once every ten years.
There will definitely be many powerhouses participating!"
Several city residents passing by chattered amongst themselves.
They hurried toward a certain location.
"Martial Immortal Temple trial?
Could it be this?
This Deity's luck is as good as ever!
Just as I was thinking about how to enter the Martial Immortal Temple,
this news comes along?
It seems this Deity can enter the Martial Immortal Temple ahead of schedule."
Ye Xuan was delighted upon hearing this.
The many grievances he had toward the Martial Immortal just now vanished instantly.
"Following these people should lead me to the trial location."
Immediately, Ye Xuan followed them directly
and arrived at the city square.
"These must be people manifested within the Secret Realm, right?
There sure are a lot of them!"
Ye Xuan looked at the dense crowds around him and remarked.
"As expected, this Deity has arrived quite early."
After saying that, he turned his head,
and his eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Those people?
Aren't those people from the various Holy Lands?
How did they get here faster than this Deity?
Could they have been sucked into the city too?
Impossible!
Does that mean they found a way into the city?
That's also impossible!"
Ye Xuan was instantly dumbfounded.
Even he couldn't see how to enter the city.
How did these people get in?
But now was not the time to think about this.
What was most urgent right now
was that he must pass this trial before them.
Otherwise, what if his Opportunity was taken away?
But on second thought, Ye Xuan felt the advantage was his:
"At most, these people are only slightly faster than this Deity.
No one should have passed the trial yet.
Furthermore, this Deity has already fought with the City Guards.
I also know roughly how to deal with these Martial Dao Spell.
So, this Deity will definitely be the fastest to pass the trial!"
Then, with a flash, he leaped onto one of the Arenas.
Seeing Ye Xuan take the Arena, the Cultivators from the various Holy Lands were also surprised.
"A Cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm actually managed to get in?"
"To enter at the Dao Integration Realm, this kid likely has some strength.
Could he be a Cultivator from a Hidden Sect?
He looks quite young!"
...Ye Xuan didn't care about the gazes of the Holy Land Cultivators at all.
After all, as a Reborn Immortal,
it was normal to be watched by a group of ants from the Haomiao Realm.
It wasn't worth mentioning.
"Trial, begin!"
A Martial Attendant spoke directly to Ye Xuan.
Immediately after, he vanished from his spot with a flash.
"Hmph, a mere ant.
Don't you dare act arrogant before this Deity!"
Ye Xuan said indifferently.
On the way here, he had recalled some Martial Dao Immortal Arts he had seen in his past life.
Although he couldn't use them perfectly,
he could still manage a rough version.
*Slap~*
At that moment, a crisp sound suddenly rang out.
Before Ye Xuan could even raise his hand, he was caught off guard and struck.
"Wait, is this trial targeting this Deity?"
Ye Xuan was bewildered once again.
How could the Martial Attendant on his Arena be so strong?
He was ten times stronger than the Martial Attendants on the neighboring Arenas.
It must be intentional, right?
How hateful!
Ye Xuan immediately raised his hand to counterattack,
but he was quickly pummeled several more times.
Unable to use his slaughter force at this moment,
he simply couldn't block the Martial Attendant's fierce onslaught.
He could only passively take the beating,
feeling extremely frustrated.
The crowd watching nearby had initially looked at Ye Xuan with some shock,
but seeing this scene,
they immediately felt they had misjudged him:
"I thought he was a young generation Cultivator with Heaven-Defying talent and strength like the Taixuan Holy Master!
Turns out he's just this?
He went up and got pummeled immediately?"
"Do you think everyone is as powerful as the Taixuan Holy Master!
Let's hurry up and go too!
Otherwise, the Opportunities of the Martial Immortal Temple will be all gone."
...Among the crowd of Holy Land Cultivators at this time,
only the Lingwu Holy Master had already led some Lingwu Elders through the trial and entered the Martial Immortal Temple.
Therefore, the remaining Cultivators from the various Holy Lands were somewhat anxious.
However, there was nothing they could do.
Although they had learned from Su Yun's mouth
that it was possible for them to pass the trial,
they still needed to make some preparations.
After all, they weren't Body Tempering Cultivators.
After being besieged by the city residents earlier,
their injuries hadn't recovered yet.
So, in order to pass in one go,
they also spent some time healing their wounds.
A moment later, several Holy Masters and Holy Land Elders also stood on the Arenas.
When Ye Xuan heard their discussion, he could hardly believe it:
"Someone actually went in first?
Shouldn't this Deity have been the fastest?"
"No, this Deity needs to speed up!"
Ye Xuan stepped forward to engage in battle again.
In his exchange with the Martial Attendant now,
he had also become much more cautious,
being careful at every turn.
Not long after, he successfully withstood ten Moves from the Martial Attendant.
"This Deity has finally passed!
Dammit, if I had repaired a portion of my slaughter immortal bone earlier,
this Deity wouldn't have been in such a pathetic state!"
Ye Xuan said, extremely displeased.
"Forget it, I've already obtained the token to enter the Martial Immortal Temple.
Better hurry to the Martial Immortal Temple!"
Ye Xuan directly gripped the token.
After a flash of white light,
he vanished from the spot.
The other Holy Land Cultivators also went up and took ten Moves of beating.
Because they had observed the Martial Attendants' Moves beforehand,
they fared slightly better than Ye Xuan, though they were still left in a disheveled state.
Nevertheless, they successfully passed the trial and obtained the permission tokens to enter the Martial Immortal Temple.
Only a small portion of Holy Land Elders who couldn't pass the trial remained.
They could only wander around Martial Immortal City,
searching for Opportunities within the city... On the other side.
According to what was written in Ye Xuan's life script,
Su Yun arrived at the outermost area of the Martial Immortal Temple
and began searching for the miscellaneous items hall that contained the mysterious space.
