Seeing the puzzle pieces at this fork in the road gave Jiang Wuyuan a feeling that he had found the right path.
However, upon reaching the end, they discovered it was a dead end.
There was no other way but to turn around.
During the next part of the journey, Jiang Wuyuan directly perceived the diverse origins of the fragments.
For example, it might be stuck to a wall, or hidden in the soil underground by a groundhog-like monster—Jiang Wuyuan didn't even know the specific name of this monster.
Jiang Wuyuan even saw a bottomless pool in the maze, inhabited by various fish and magical beasts, with a glittering fragment at the bottom.
—It feels like a treasure hunt.
But Jiang Wuyuan always felt that the test couldn't be that simple.
Sure enough, when Jiang Wuyuan discovered that he had collected all five fragments, the entire maze underwent a dramatic transformation.
Not only did the roads become narrower, but the walls of the maze also moved.
This means that all the paths he had previously explored are now useless.
Even more, Jiang Wuyuan heard the roars and footsteps of countless demonic beasts, like ten thousand horses galloping, rushing towards him from all directions.
Jiang Wuyuan stood cautiously in place without moving.
Before long, dozens of demonic beasts came into Jiang Wuyuan's view from both ends of the corridor.
All of them were magical beasts of the fifth rank or above, and there were even quite a few at the peak of the fifth rank.
Moreover, judging from the sounds around us, there are definitely more than just what's in front of us.
In fact, Jiang Wuyuan himself had a very strong sense of perception, but the walls of this maze seemed to have the effect of hindering the soul, so that his soul could not be released outward.
That's true.
After all, if the soul can be released, what's the difference between the maze and a decoration?
Jiang Wuyuan summoned his flying sword, intending to deal with the demonic beast in front of him first.
Sword Shadow.
Sword Control Technique!
Countless golden flying swords shot out, accompanied by screams of pain and the sound of flesh being torn apart.
Jiang Wuyuan ignored the blood flowing all over the ground, stepped over the fallen monster corpses and went against the current to face the three huge fifth-tier peak monsters behind him.
The fifth-tier peak magical beasts each displayed their unique abilities.
Towering waves, ethereal yet fierce tornadoes, and rolling thunderclouds gathering overhead.
It was a grand and imposing event, with terrifying power.
However, Jiang Wuyuan's momentum in charging forward showed no signs of stopping.
In accordance with his wishes, Devouring Star unleashed a resounding sword cry that echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
In an instant, a golden light seemed to flash in the boy's eyes.
War Cry!
The ultimate swordsmanship!
Under the dazzling golden light, as bright as the sun, both the waves and the thunderclouds were torn to shreds by the sword intent.
It mixed with the bones and blood of a fifth-tier peak magical beast and dissipated into the world.
Jiang Wuyuan dared not linger. He picked up the blood crystals that had fallen to the ground and quickly left the scene of the fight, which was littered with corpses.
Without any puzzle pieces, he doesn't need to stop.
The increasing rank and number of monsters in the maze did not hinder Jiang Wuyuan's progress.
Or rather, the Battle Tower underestimated Jiang Wuyuan's strength.
As a result, Jiang Wuyuan, who quickly gathered all nine fragments, had already found the exit of the maze.
It was an extremely narrow spatial rift, reflecting the deep, boundless universe.
One more piece is needed.
Jiang Wuyuan clenched the nine fragments in his hand, turned around and left, seemingly without any lingering attachment to the maze's exit.
Perhaps the last piece is hidden in some obscure corner. Fortunately, there is no time limit for the fourth challenge.
The next second, the walls of the maze moved again.
Unfortunately, Jiang Wuyuan was standing in the middle of a very long corridor.
Furthermore, the walls on both sides are slowly closing in.
Jiang Wuyuan dared not delay and randomly chose a direction to fly away on his sword.
boom!
The wall behind him closed, and Jiang Wuyuan let out a soft breath.
This is really exciting.
"Squeak, squeak!"
Suddenly, a faint animal cry came from in front of him. Jiang Wuyuan looked up sharply and saw a creature that looked like a fox with pointed ears standing in front of him.
Its body was semi-transparent, and its palm-sized body floated in mid-air, staring at him with a pair of beautiful big eyes, seemingly very curious about him.
However, Jiang Wuyuan clearly saw that the transparent, pointed-eared fox had the last piece of the puzzle hidden inside its body.
Without any mercy, Jiang Wuyuan activated his flying sword and plunged it towards its direction.
However.
call--
The incredibly fast flying sword created a gust of wind, passing through the transparent body of the pointy-eared fox in the blink of an eye, without harming it in the slightest.
This wasn't originally a big deal.
Unfortunately, the sword strike seemed to frighten the newborn cub, and it turned tail and ran away.
Before Jiang Wuyuan could react, her body transformed into a white streak of light, piercing straight through the maze walls and disappearing instantly before his eyes.
Jiang Wuyuan silently retrieved his flying sword and searched for a path leading to the other side of the wall.
And so, after turning three corners and killing dozens of magical beasts, Jiang Wuyuan finally saw the delicate, pointed-eared fox.
It seemed to have forgotten what had just happened and was happily rolling around in mid-air.
Jiang Wuyuan slipped into the gap and silently approached it.
If a sword won't work, how about using your hands?
This idea was quickly validated when Jiang Wuyuan's hand passed through the pointed-eared fox's body again, startling the little animal that was having a good time.
Its pupils widened in fright, but it dared not bare its teeth at Jiang Wuyuan, and it was about to burrow into the wall again.
