Chapter 735: Chapter 739: The First Test 3
Since his trial is so severe, it’s likely others will face similar predicaments.
However, Gaiyin can hardly imagine how fearful delicate young females would be when faced with such wild beasts. He even suspects that they might currently be hiding in a corner crying.
Therefore, he must proceed more quickly!
Gaiyin, biting his lips, leads the wild cave like a kite runner.
If he gets too far ahead, he slows down to let the beast catch up. If it gets too close, he finds ways to widen the gap.
A man and a beast maneuver at high speed through the Giant Stone Forest. The beast displays fierceness and there is no seeming weakness in sight.
Gaiyin’s heart sank slightly. He has almost searched every nook and corner here. Now, only one corner remains ahead. If there is nothing that can restrain the wild beast there, he will have to fight it to the death.
Gaiyin leads the beast towards that corner, his muscles tense, preparing for a life-and-death clash.
Just then,
Gaiyin suddenly noted that the beast was slowing down, and concurrently a dark cave appeared straight ahead in his line of sight.
Fear flashed in the yellow-brown eyes of the wild beast. It slowed down further and further until it eventually stopped.
Gaiyin stood at the cave entrance, a pungent odor assaulting his nostrils as he observed the beast.
The beast paced back and forth restlessly about ten meters from him. It pawed at the stone ground, creating a crater-like hole. Its fur stood on end and it growled in Gaiyin’s direction but dared not step forward.
Seeing this, Gaiyin understood. There must be something that the beast fears inside this cave.
Gaiyin snickered, gave the wild beast a casual glance, and then stepped into the cave.
Inside the caved it was pitch black with no light, but that couldn’t prevent Gaiyin from comprehend its structure.
The cave wasn’t deep, about fifteen or sixteen meters with empty space all around. Besides the nauseating smell, there was nothing unusual. The further he walked in, the stronger the smell.
Gaiyin frowned.
Other than the smell, there didn’t seem to be anything strange. Could it be that this smell is what the beast fears?
Even if it was so, he couldn’t lure the beast into the cave, as it refused to take another step forward when it was still a certain distance from the cave.
No, the smell must be only one reason, there must be something else he has overlooked.
Gaiyin racked his brain.
Suddenly, a thought struck him.
Where is this smell coming from?
The source of the smell might be key to controlling the beast.
So, Gaiyin began to inspect carefully once again.
Actually, there wasn’t much to look for. In a glance, one can see the end of the cave. Inside, there were only rocks and more rocks.
Gaiyin fixed his gaze on the rocks.
The rocks looked no different from those outside, except maybe they’re a bit darker.
He prepared to break off a piece to examine it.
But before using any strength, the rock fell completely into his hand.
Gaiyin: ... 𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝘣.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Looking at the large piece of rock in his hand, Gaiyin fell into deep thought.
After a while, he used the strength of a sesame seed, and the big piece of rock in his hand was divided into two.
Gaiyin shook his head amusingly. Could it be that the wild beast is afraid of this?
