Chapter 2159  Meeting The Other Groups And Comparisons

With Spatial Perception, Lin Mu saw that the destination of the Teleportation Channel was within the scope of his vision.

While this distance might be quite far in terms of real world distance, it was still quite close in terms of the void. At the very least, being able to see it directly was a good thing, as it meant that Lin Mu had better control over things, in case anything problematic happened.

Thinking that they should move on, Lin Mu decided to clear the spoils first.

~SHUA~

He stored away the broken Demonic Sentinel, thinking that its scraps would still be useful for something if not for Omnicore Ascendancy. The others saw this but didn't really question it, as they would've done the same.

"Let's head in." Lin Mu said. "I think the others might just be on the other end." He added, having a hunch.

He might not be able to see a second teleportation channel linked to the destination, but since the trial completion message hadn't appeared yet, it was probably not over.

"Yeah, no use in waiting around." Ziran agreed.

~shua~shua~shua~

The group stepped into the teleportation gate, finding themselves arriving on the other end in just a couple of seconds. The teleportation time was short enough that they didn't even get the sensation of being weightless in the teleportation channel.

Only Lin Mu had seen the entire process of them traveling through the channel.

"You guys are here!" A familiar voice was heard upon the arrival of Lin Mu and the group.

"Huh?" Once their vision returned, they saw none other than Crown Prince Feng Shun and the rest standing there.

"Seems like we managed to arrive early this time." Daoist Chu said, seeing them.

"Your hunch was right." Ziran was impressed. "They really were waiting for us." Lady Kang wondered if Lin Mu had actually 'seen' the others here beforehand. While the rest didn't put much thought into it.

"How long have you guys been here for?" Lin Mu questioned, wondering just how short the trial was for them.

"About a day, not much." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied. Hearing that, Lady Kang and Ziran were intrigued. "The third trial is either really small, or we haven't reached the end yet." Lady Kang stated. "Even for us it took four days, and three days for you. Considering the previous two trials, this sees a little too short." She added.

"Not necessarily." Qiao De interrupted. "This trial seemed to be based around versatility and ability to overcome various kinds of obstacles. It needed us to know all kinds of skills and abilities to pass it. But considering our team composition, this was bound to happen." He explained.

"He's right." Lin Mu agreed. "Ziran thought the same about the trial." He added.

"While there were a lot of obstacles, at least they didn't seem to be that hard." Crown Prince nodded. "Except for a few strange ones." Crown Princess Shang said. "What was up with those strange mechanical traps?" she added, feeling a bit irked.

"So you guys saw the Gnomish mechanisms too?" Lin Mu had been wondering what kind of obstacles the other group had and it seemed like they might have been similar.

"Gnomish?" Crown Princess Shang furrowed her brows. "They weren't Gnomish." She stated, making Lin Mu confused.

"Huh? What were they then?" Lin Mu asked.

"Dwarven." Crown Prince Feng Shun answered. "I know about both Gnomish and Dwarven designs, and that was definitely Dwarven. It even had some of their script on it." He elaborated.

"So two different trap styles from different races." Lady Kang muttered, thinking about it.

This made them a bit more curious, and they asked about the other obstacles they had faced. Lin Mu and Ziran started noting them down, and marked the similarities as well as the difference between the traps that the two groups had faced.

It turned out that while half of the traps were the same, there were some that were markedly different, such as the Mechanical traps. Lin Mu's side faced Gnomish designs, while Crown Prince Feng Shun's side faced Dwarven designs.

Lin Mu's side faced poem puzzles, while Crown Prince's side faced an alchemical puzzle.

After comparing over a hundred trap areas, it finally came to the last one.

"What did you fight in the last trial?" Lin Mu questioned. "We had to fight a Demonic Sentinel." "A Demonic Sentinel?" Monk Hushu raised his brows in surprise. "There was actually a functional one here?" he almost couldn't believe it.

"Yeah, it was astounding to me too." Ziran confirmed.

"Amithabha… This place becomes more of a mystery as time passes." Monk Hushu muttered.

"Looks like you guys definitely had it harder with the Demonic Sentinel." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "We only had to face a golem." He revealed.

"A golem? What kind?" Lin Mu asked.

"Well, it was a mix of several elements." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied. "All five basal elements." He added.

Golems were a familiar construct to all of them, as they were quite widespread among cultivators that used puppets to fight. They were also used to protect sects as well as by various organizations as effective guards, thus most cultivators would have at least seen one of them.

"A golem with five basal elements will be tough to fight, but for you all it shouldn't have been that hard I suppose," Lin Mu replied. 'Though fighting one could have been a good experience. Perhaps it might have had an energy source in it too. Something that could have powered all five elements.' He thought to himself.

Lin Mu was sure that the power source from the golem would have helped him with Omnicore Ascendancy for sure.

"Yeah, the Golem was tough, but we managed to destroy it in an hour." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke. "I think it was weaker than the Juvenile Tyrant Bull I killed." He compared.

Lin Mu marveled at the fact before his attention was brought to a structure in the middle of the hall.
