Right now, Azriel and Luminia were standing in front of big mountains that were covered in white snow, cold wind was blowing, different star beasts could be seen moving around here and there, and what little trees that were here were also covered in a layer of snow.
"So these are the Forsaken Mountains?"
Azriel questioned.
"Indeed."
Luminia nodded.
"Haahh… I have waited for this for a whole month." Azriel exhaled deeply and then, his eyes shined brightly.
Yes, he has been training for a whole month.
Hmm? Did he accept Luminia's offer?
Of course, he did.
A whole month of training without studying, that was like a dream come true for someone like Azriel. He accepted it as soon as Luminia offered it.
Yes, it was quite easy to bait him, especially for someone like Luminia who is strong enough to train him.
Well, it is not like there is anything wrong with that either.
There wasn't a time limit for this mission, the only downfall is that the longer he takes, the later will he be able to breakthrough.
So Azriel could wait but couldn't wait for very long either.
"Teacher, do you have any guesses as to what Stage the Beast will set himself on in order to fight me?"
Azriel questioned.
Luminia, however, shook her head,
"As I said, no one has ever come back after taking the trail of any Forbidden Regions, so there is no accurate data.
However, if I have to guess, I believe it will be around Grand Master Stage.
You are an Advance Stage Cultivator, for a normal Advance Stage Cultivation genius, fighting against a Master Stage Cultivator should be hard, however, it should still be doable.
If the trial was that easy, someone would have cleared it by now.
Therefore, I believe the Beast will set his cultivation as Grand Master Stage Cultivator.
There is no way a cultivator can defeat a Grand Master Stage Cultivator while being an Advance Stage Cultivator, unless, of course, he is a monster like you."
Luminia answered.
"This should be easy then, right?" Azriel replied with a smile on his face.
This won't be his first fight against a Grand Master Stage Cultivator, he has done it before and has even defeated one before.
"That was a weak Grand Master Stage Cultivator, Azriel. I told you that before."
"I fought him months ago, teacher, I am a lot stronger right now. You know it as well." Azriel answered back with a smile.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"…"
Luminia turned silent.
Actually, even she thought that defeating a Grand Master Stage Cultivator is possible for someone like Azriel.
However, these were the Forsaken Mountains, she didn't want him to be overly confident.
"Just don't be too arrogant. Do you understand?"
"Yes teacher, I will be careful." Azriel nodded with a serious face.
No matter how much he felt that he would breeze through the Trial, he wasn't planning on taking it easy.
He will give it his all!
Seeing his gaze, Luminia nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright, let's walk in."
She muttered.
"Huh? You are going in with me?" Azriel questioned in surprise.
"Of course I am. Don't worry, the Trial doesn't start until you reach the middle of the Mountains. I will go with you for now, later, you would have to go in yourself."
Luminia answered and Azriel nodded.
The two of them then stepped forward and started walking.
The closer they got to the Forsaken Mountains, the more Beasts looked at them with greed and delight in their eyes.
The beasts then prepared themselves as they hid wherever they could, waiting for the opportunity to attack and devour the tasty meat of these two beings.
Normally, anyone who wanted to take this trial would first have to go against these beasts in arduous fights before walking into the centre of the Mountains, Azriel however, had it easier.
He didn't have to defeat those beasts.
As soon as Azriel and Luminia walked into the Forsaken mountains, the beasts who were about to attack them, stopped.
They weren't stupid, living in harsh conditions like these has strengthened their instincts.
And their instinct was clear, if it was that boy alone, they would have attacked however this woman…
The woman who was walking with that boy.
She was a monster.
No, she was death incarnate.
Even if they fought this woman a million times, the result would be 1 million losses.
The Beast kept themselves hidden, not daring to move, even an inch.
Of course, this wasn't for the weak beasts only, the same was the case for the strongest, the predators of the Forsaken Mountains, they were cowering in fear as well.
One of the 10 Star Beast, Absolute Ice Bear, who was eating his meal stopped eating and glanced in the direction where Luminia was walking.
Then without wasting any time, it left his meal alone and then walked into its cave, hiding and cowering.
The same was true for all the beasts in the Mountains, they all just cowered in fear and found a place for them to hide.
Yes, the whole 1,000,000 km square rage wide Mountains were silenced.
And that was all because of the arrival of one individual.
Luminia Crux.
Of course, due to this, Azriel and Luminia's journey was smooth and 2 hours later, the two of them finally arrived in the centre of the Forsaken Mountains.
The Centre wasn't very different from the rest of the mountains, covered in a white layer of snow with mountains all around the area.
There was only one difference between the Centre of Forsaken Mountains and the entire Forsaken Mountains, and that was that there were no Star Beasts or animals here.
This place was eerily silent.
"From now on, I won't be following you."
Luminia muttered as she glanced ahead with a solemn look on her face.
"Mhm." Azriel nodded.
Right now, he wasn't as relaxed as before.
He didn't like this silence.
The Silence before was because of Luminia, he knew about it, however, this Silence, wasn't caused by Luminia.
"Alright, remember, be cautious, don't get overconfident, trust yourself, fight with everything you have and,"
Azriel then glanced at Luminia and noticed that she was looking at him with an intense gaze.
"Come back alive."
Luminia completed.
"Yes, I will, I promise you."
Azriel nodded and his blood-red eyes shined intensely.
Luminia nodded back,
"I will be going now."
Azriel then stepped forward and walked into the centre of the Forsaken Mountains.
Seeing his back, different thoughts started appearing in Luminia's mind.
Her intense look changed into a worried one.
Azriel was her student.
She knew he was more than capable of doing the impossible, however, she also knew that the Trial of Forsaken Mountains was never cleared before.
She was worried.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever soon, her worried look changed into a confident one.
If anyone can complete this trial, it was her disciple.
Thinking about it, Luminia calmed her heart and then, she turned around.
She would wait for him to come back.
…
On the other side, while Azriel was walking toward the centre, he suddenly felt that he passed through something.
Maybe it was some kind of barrier or something else. He didn't know what it was, however, he knew something was different than before.
He then continued walking and soon, his eyes fell on a cave in front of him. (Picture in the paragraph comment.)
Although there were no written instructions, by how grand the cave was and since this was the only thing in this wide space, Azriel knew it was the entrance to the Trial.
Azriel then took a deep breath and calmed his racing heart.
'Haahh… it is not a problem.
It will only be a Grand Master Stage Beast, there is no way someone like that can defeat me. I can do it. No, I will do it!'
Thinking that, Azriel took a deep breath again and then, he stepped into the cave.
There was a narrow pathway that was covered in snow, Azriel followed the path and soon, he appeared in an open field.
[Trial of the Forsaken Mountains]
As soon as Azriel stepped into the open field, a system screen appeared in front of him.
[Trial of the Forsaken Mountains.]
[Defeat the Primordial Frost Golem to complete the Trial.]
[Cultivation: King Stage]
[Wish you Good Luck]
Azriel's eyes widened in horror when he read the message that had appeared in front of him.
King Stage!
King Stage Beast!
This was simply ridiculous!
He was a mere Advance Stage Cultivator!
That is 4 cultivation Stages higher than him!
How is he supposed to defeat that!?
What kind of absurd Trial is that!?
*Thud* *Thud* *Thud*
However, before Azriel could think too much, he heard a sound and turned around,
There, he saw a 20-meter-tall golem that was covered in ice, with hands that nearly reached the ground, glaring at him with a face that was made of rock and ice. The Aura the golem released was simply horrifying. (Picture in the paragraph comment)
And Azriel, he just couldn't believe his eyes…
'What the hell...'
