Walker Of The Worlds-Chapter 2080 Growing Numbers And Exponential Trials

Lady Kang was faster than Lin Mu. Her stars, shot from her finger like bullets from a gun and pierced through the heads of all the Chasm Beasts within a fraction of a second.

Lin Mu observed this and found it to be a rather interesting Qi skill.

'It doesn't use much Immortal Qi, but has a strong piercing power.' Lin Mu assessed. 'Though it does not seem to be like any common Qi skills that I've seen before this.' He thought to himself.

On the surface, it seemed similar to something like Searing sparrow darts that Lin Mu had learned. But the concept behind it was different. Lin Mu tried to sense the stars and found it to be a lot more complex than one would think. 'Definitely not like any other Qi skills I've seen before.' Lin Mu thought to himself as the pass message appeared.

"Now we move," Lin Mu said, watching a gate open on the other side.

"Yeah." Lady Kang replied and the two moved into the third room.

It was the same as the previous one, and the runes told them to survive.

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

"They're really ramping it up, huh." Lin Mu said, as over a hundred spheres made out of the dark gas appeared.

~shing~

This time, he drew out Afternoon Pine and made a single slash. ~HONG~

The immortal Qi imbued into the double edged sword let out a sword light that cut through all the dark gas spheres in front of it. ~POOF~

In one go, Lin Mu had cleared out 80% of the spheres. The one that had managed to survive were those that were not in the range of the slash.

~SHA~SHA~SHA~

Lady Kang took care of those and the pass message appeared once more.

"This is much faster." Lin Mu nodded, though he also wondered if this was a fault of the trials or whether the enemies were just too weak.

If they didn't let the Chasm beasts form in the first place, they wouldn't have to fight them, allowing them to continue without stopping for too long. They did this for about five more rounds, and cleared them out quickly. In every round, the number of enemies increased, and by the eighth round, the number was already at two thousand!

~SHING~

In the ninth round, Lin Mu did the same and slashed out. But this time around, something changed. The slash tore through about a hundred dark gas spheres that were yet to transform into Chasm Beasts before suddenly being stopped. ~GRRR~

A few beasts had actually managed to form successfully and had even blocked the sword slash!

"Huh… They're getting better too now." Lin Mu said with slight surprise.

~SHA~SHA~SHA~

Lady Kang noticed this too when she shot the other beasts. Previously, she was able to pierce through tens of spheres in one shot, but now, it was seemingly stopped after a few of them, which allowed the spheres at the back to successfully transform into Chasm beasts.

~SHING~SHING~SHING~

Of course, Lin Mu didn't really mind it much and slashed out a few more times, clearing the Chasm Beasts out. This also allowed him to judge their strength which was finally at the First Tribulation Stage of the Immortal Realm now.

"It's finally ramping up." Lin Mu said as he started to walk towards the next room.

"The increase is exponential too… Their strength has been upgraded, but their numbers haven't decreased." Lady Kang replied.

If before they had faced two thousand Chasm Beasts below the immortal realm, now they were facing two thousand Chasm Beasts at the First Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm.

Lady Kang threw out three more Fragmenting stars and cleared out her half of the room. "They certainly are taking more effort now." Lady Kang spoke, taking a breath.

"Indeed… and I think they will increase in strength every nine rounds." Lin Mu calculated after having observed the change.

"We'll know for sure once we reach the twenty seventh room." Lady Kang replied, not feeling concerned.

"Mmhmm." Lin Mu also felt like they could continue to handle them at their level.

~Tremble~

The gate opened up, allowing them to move into the nineteenth room that was twice as big as before.

"Huh… guess even the Trial wants to be a bit fair and improve the space it gives us." Lin Mu said seeing the room that was nearly a kilometer in size.

"Or, it has run out of space to fit more Chasm beasts." Lady Kang said as she readied four Fragmenting Stars beforehand. ~swoosh~

She threw all four Fragmenting Stars in the room before the spheres had even appeared, being ready for them.

~BOOM~

And when the Chasm Beasts did appear, they were blasted to smithereens in an instant. The spheres didn't even get the chance to fully form and were cleared out. "If they're faster we'll be faster than them." Lin Mu said created tens of slashes in the blink of an eye.

In just a couple of minutes, the entire room was cleared out by the two showing that just because they were slow earlier, didn't mean that they were weak. They were merely optimizing the energy they used. And now that it was justified, they wouldn't hesitate to use more energy.

Twenty first…

.

.

Twenty second…

.

.

.

Twenty fifth…

.

.

.

Twenty Seventh!

They cleared the rooms as fast as they could and soon reached the Twenty Seventh room which confirmed Lin Mu's inference.

About Seventeen thousand Chasm beasts appeared, that were all as strong as a Third Tribulation Stage immortal!

"Looks like we need to be a bit more serious now." Lin Mu said, seeing the speed at which the Chasm Beasts had managed to transform.

Lady Kang simply nodded and threw out the Fragmenting stars into the crowd of Chasm Beasts. ~BOOM~

"Afternoon Pine!" The two began their assault once more, but this time it took them significantly more effort and time.

By the time they cleared the room out, over thirty minutes had passed.
