Chapter 629

It let out a dragon roar that resounded throughout the Dungeon.

Stairs appeared once again behind the assessment platform.

Chapter 602: One Man's Poison, Another Man's Honey

The stairs led up into the clouds, giving one the feeling of a path to the heavens.

The stairs still consisted of 100 steps, with the final section hidden behind the clouds, making it impossible to see what lay above.

Having already experienced this twice, Lin Moyu knew that the third trial began with this hundred-step staircase.

Lin Moyu walked past Laylin and said softly, "I will keep my lips sealed."

Laylin let out a heavy breath, "Thank you."

Lin Moyu chuckled, saying nothing more.

Arriving at the side of the stairs, he looked at the void on both sides.

The void was also filled with layers of clouds and mist; it looked calm and peaceful, revealing nothing.

He then stepped onto the stairs.

The stairs lit up slightly, and a beam of light shot out from them, entering Lin Moyu's body.

Bone Armor did not react at all, indicating that this light was not aggressive.

Since he first mastered Bone Armor, in 99.9% of cases, it would naturally react to danger.

In Lin Moyu's memory, it had only failed once or twice.

Bone Armor was still trustworthy.

The light that had entered his body did not trigger a reaction from Bone Armor, so for now, it seemed harmless.

However, Lin Moyu still kept his guard up, remaining vigilant.

Since it was an assessment, this light could not be without purpose; it must have some significance.

But what exactly was it?

His soul power flowed throughout his entire body like water as Lin Moyu tried to locate the light that had entered him.

Very quickly, he found the light inside his body.

After Lin Moyu gained the Poison Elemental Immunity trait, his physical body had become pure and flawless; anything that did not belong to his body was considered a toxin.

Coupled with his vast soul power controlling his entire body, no foreign object could hope to escape his perception.

In a remote corner of his body, Lin Moyu found the light that had entered.

It was a tiny speck of light, emitting a faint, holy aura.

It did not appear to be harmful in any way; it just sat there quietly, motionless.

And precisely because of that, Bone Armor had not reacted.

Lin Moyu thought for a moment and did not expel it.

This might also be part of the assessment; if he expelled it now, he did not know what impact it might have on the subsequent trials.

However, Lin Moyu did not let his guard down; instead, he monitored it, ready to destroy it at any moment should he sense something amiss.

After pausing for a few seconds, Lin Moyu continued to walk upwards.

With every step he took, a beam of light shot into his body, and the speck of light inside him gradually grew larger.

On the surface, Lin Moyu appeared unresponsive, but in reality, he had long since become vigilant.

On the second assessment platform, Laylin was also staring at Lin Moyu, its gaze thoughtful.

Now, it could only hope that Lin Moyu would not go outside and spout nonsense.

From within the clouds, Aili and three other dragons descended.

The green dragon, Gevas, was the first to speak, asking, "Brother Laylin, did he pass the assessment?"

Laylin nodded, "He passed."

They had previously been in the clouds and had roughly seen the assessment process.

The distance was too great, so they had not heard the conversation between Lin Moyu and Laylin.

Aili said, "Looking at him, he seems quite relaxed."

Laylin grunted, "This human is unusual, extraordinary."

Gevas said in a muffled voice, "Why do you say that too? Isn't he just a human? What's so unusual about him? Brother Laylin, you didn't go easy on him, did you?"

Laylin huffed, "Go easy on him, my foot! He has Electric Elemental Immunity."

The dragons all revealed expressions of shock.

Aili was thoughtful, "No wonder. To think such a human would appear in this Small World; it truly is surprising."

Laylin said, "Indeed. The human race is originally a major race with countless geniuses. But ones like him are not common."

Aili said in a deep voice, "Perhaps he has a chance."

The gaze of the few dragons fell upon Aili, and Aili said, "This is just my feeling."

Laylin breathed out lightning, "I have the same feeling; perhaps he has a chance."

Gevas huffed, "If that's really the case, then that's for the best. When the time comes, I'll teach him a good lesson."

Laylin glared at him, "Don't talk big. It might end up being you who gets taught a lesson by him."

"Impossible!" Gevas shouted, not believing it at all.

"You'll know when the time comes."

…

Lin Moyu walked step by step to the high point, passed through the clouds, and arrived at the end of the stairs.

At the end of the stairs was another huge assessment platform.

However, behind the assessment platform, it was no longer a void, but a palace.

The palace was magnificent and enormous, over a thousand meters high, with a width and depth that were immeasurable.

Thick clouds and mist obscured its true appearance.

"Is this Dragon King Hall?"

Lin Moyu pondered in his heart. The name of the Dungeon was [Dragon King Hall], so could this palace be the Dragon King Hall itself?

He was just one step away from stepping onto the third assessment platform, but Lin Moyu stopped at this moment.

At this moment, the speck of light in his body had grown from the size of a grain of rice to the size of a fist, having expanded dozens of times.

It still looked harmless, but Lin Moyu did not believe it was useless.

If there were any issues, they should erupt the moment he stepped onto the assessment platform.

Lin Moyu's expression was grave, and he muttered to himself, "Two choices. What should I do?"

One is to expel it.

Two is to let it erupt inside his body; he did not know what would happen, and Lin Moyu was not sure either.

Leaving this ball of light in his body was like a ticking time bomb.

When it exploded, he did not know what would happen.

Whether it would be good or bad, he could not say for sure.

If he expelled it, Lin Moyu did not know what kind of impact it would have on the entire assessment.

In case he was judged to have failed the assessment, how would he complete the task entrusted to him by Antares?

After thinking for a few seconds, Lin Moyu decided to let the ball of light remain in his body.

His vast soul power had already firmly locked onto it; even if there were any problems, he could respond immediately.

Moreover, Lin Moyu had confidence in his own skills and talents; it would not be easy to kill him.

Having made his decision, Lin Moyu finally stepped onto the assessment platform.

The moment he stepped onto the assessment platform, the entire platform instantly lit up, releasing a blinding light.

A dragon roar sounded in his ears, and what he found strange was that he heard the aura of light elements within the dragon roar.

— Seeking Flowers —

Subsequently, a large amount of light elements surged toward his body, and the ball of light inside him now became a guiding beacon, drawing the light elements in.

Bone Armor still did not react; this light that surged in did not cause him any harm.

[Light Elemental Resistance cap increased by 1%.]

[Obtained Light Power, EXP + **]

[Obtained Light Power, EXP + **]

Suddenly, a large number of notifications popped up.

The cap for Light Elemental Resistance had increased.

At the same time, a large amount of light elements transformed into soul power, pouring into his soul and bringing him a large amount of EXP.

The transformation speed of the light elements was extremely fast, and with the ball of light inside him, they had a clear target.

The surging light elements were like raging waves, one after another.

His soul power rose with the tide, and his EXP increased rapidly.

Among the constantly popping up notifications, there was occasionally a message about the increase in the Light Elemental Resistance cap.

…

Lin Moyu's resistance to light elements had originally reached 80%, and now it was rising again, advancing toward a higher level.

He was shocked at first, then he understood.

This was also a form of assessment.

If it were an ordinary Professional, such violent light elements surging in and rapidly transforming into soul power…

Although their soul power would be greatly enhanced, their soul would similarly be unable to withstand it.

At best, their soul would be injured; at worst, their soul would be directly blown apart, turning into ashes.

But for him, this problem did not exist.

His soul cap was too high, having already reached the god-level.

Compared to his soul cap, his current soul energy was far from sufficient.

Now, this soul power frantically pouring in was like sweet rain to him, extremely nourishing.

For ordinary Professionals, the growth of their soul and their level are basically consistent.

Whatever level they are, they should have a soul of that level.

Just like a cup filled with water, the size of the cup determines the capacity.

Every time the cup grows larger, the water inside is immediately filled up.

And when there is too much water inside, exceeding the cup's capacity, it will overflow.

If the cup has a lid and is sealed…

And if you keep pouring water into it when it's already full, the cup might be blown apart or crack.

But his cup had long since turned into a bucket, yet the water inside was still only the amount of a cup.

Lin Moyu understood that this kind of assessment was both an opportunity and a disaster.

If you can withstand it, it's an opportunity.

If you can't withstand it, then it's a disaster.

For him, this was a rare opportunity; he wished for more soul energy to come in, the more the better.

One man's poison, another man's honey.
