Swallowing the Stars: Starting from Late Bloomers

Chapter 047: A Clash of Titans

In front of the Trial Pagoda.

Several top-tier elites have gathered here and are talking to each other.

Suddenly, a streak of azure light approached from afar and quickly landed in front of these first-level elites, revealing a figure with flowing blue hair, who was none other than Terence, who had just entered the second level of the Wind Domain.

"Terrence!"

Upon seeing Terence, a fox-person genius quickly asked with a smile, "Didn't you take on another cultivation mission? Why are you here so soon today?"

"Hahaha!"

Upon hearing the question, Terence quickly smiled and said, "I successfully entered the second level of the Wind Realm during this adventure, so I came early to see which level of the Trial Tower I could reach!"

He was now eager for more people to know that he had entered the second level of the Wind Realm, so naturally he wouldn't hide it from anyone.

"What?"

"Terrence, your Wind Domain has reached the second level?"

Upon hearing Terence's words, several Level 1 elites around him looked over, their faces full of surprise.

"That's right!"

Terence nodded slightly, then said, "Matt, I'm going to challenge the Trial Tower now. We'll talk later!"

After saying this, Terence quickly walked into the Trial Tower ahead.

The remaining elites looked at each other in bewilderment, and then quickly spread the news.

It should be noted that the number of mentalists among the first-level elites is extremely small, and almost every one of them is a top performer among their peers.

A mentalist who has reached the second level of the domain only needs to put in a little effort after completing their cultivation tasks to break into the top ten in the overall rankings.

This means that as long as Terence truly enters the second level of the Wind Realm, he will definitely be able to secure a spot in the top ten in the future.

This will naturally make the competition even fiercer for others who want to break into the top ten overall.

Meanwhile, after receiving the message from Matt and the others, the other elites also rushed to the entrance of the Trial Tower.

At this moment, last year's overall rankings are about to be updated, and they also want to see whether Terence's entry into the second level of the Wind Domain is true or false!

Terence, however, was completely unaware of these things. After entering the Trial Tower, he quickly put on the consciousness-sensing helmet and then entered the actual Trial Tower.

Having already passed the eighth level of the Trial Tower, he was quickly teleported into the ninth level of the Trial Tower after selecting suitable weapons and equipment.

The opponents on this level are ten Rank 1 Sky Wolves of the Eternal Star level. Originally, Terence could only kill three Sky Wolves even with all his strength.

However, after entering the second level of the Wind Domain, these ten Star-level Tier 1 wolves no longer posed any threat to him!

In less than five minutes, Terence killed all ten first-tier Star-level wolves and was then teleported to the tenth floor of the Trial Tower.

Unfortunately, the opponents on the tenth floor of the Trial Tower were one hundred Celestial Star-level Tier 1 Azure Sky Demon Apes, all of whom were extremely powerful.

Even though Terence's strength had greatly improved, he still couldn't get past the tenth level.

After holding out for a little over three minutes and killing sixteen Azure Sky Demon Apes, Terence was then surrounded and killed by the remaining Azure Sky Demon Apes.

"The tenth level of this Trial Tower is still too difficult!"

After being kicked out of the Trial Tower, Terence slowly removed the consciousness-sensing helmet from his head, then couldn't help but think to himself, "I wonder how that freak Liu Guangyuan managed to get through this level with only a second-level Domain Realm cultivation?"

"But if he can do it, I can certainly do it too!"

Terence has always been a proud and ambitious person. Now that he has successfully entered the second level of the Domain, he naturally takes Liu Guangyuan, who performs the best in the second level of the Domain, as his target.

If Liu Guangyuan was able to pass the tenth level of the Trial Tower when he was at the second level of the Domain, then he would naturally do the same.

"But there's no rush!"

Terence thought to himself, "I'm only at the seventh level of the Constant Star realm right now; I haven't even reached my limit in terms of energy accumulation!"

"Fortunately, once I break into the top ten overall, I'll be able to apply for evolutionary elixir, which is far more precious than the Moon Goddess's Tears. I estimate that it will only take a few decades for me to cultivate to the ninth level of the Eternal Star!"

"It seems that the delay in energy accumulation due to cultivation was actually a good thing! The speed of energy accumulation when using the Evolution Elixir for cultivation will definitely far exceed that when using the Moon Goddess's Tears!"

"No wonder Lu Qingshan hasn't focused on improving his physical abilities; so that's what he was planning! It's just a pity he's not a mentalist; even if he reaches the second level of the domain, breaking into the top ten will be incredibly difficult!"

"Hahaha! Of the top ten overall, I'm the only one who hasn't completed the energy accumulation, and only I am qualified to use that incomparably precious evolution elixir!"

Thinking of this, Terence couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

It should be noted that when other geniuses broke into the top ten of the overall rankings, they had basically already cultivated to the ninth level of the Hengxing level, so it was impossible for them to continue applying for evolution liquid for cultivation like he did.

As various thoughts flashed through his mind, Terence quickly walked out of the Trial Tower.

Just then, a figure wearing khaki armor suddenly walked into the Trial Tower. It was Lu Qingshan, who had joined Tianzhu Mountain with him and become a first-level elite.

Upon seeing Lu Qingshan, Terence's feelings were naturally extremely complex.

Back then, he and Lu Qingshan became top-tier elites of Tianzhu Mountain together. He quickly surpassed Lu Qingshan by a wide margin, and at that time, he almost forgot about Lu Qingshan.

However, Lu Qingshan later entered the second level of the domain and surpassed him again. No matter how hard he tried, he could not surpass him.

Now, he has finally entered the second level of the domain. With the advantage of being a mentalist, his future ranking will naturally surpass Lu Qingshan's once again.

Thinking of this, a hint of fighting spirit reappeared in Terence's eyes as he looked at Lu Qingshan.

On the other side, after noticing the fighting spirit in Terence's eyes, Lu Qingshan remained completely unmoved.

Just before he entered the Trial Tower, he had already learned from the conversations of other Level 1 elites that Terence had entered the second level of the Wind Domain.

It has to be said that Terence's ability to reach the second level of the Wind Domain in such a short time is definitely remarkable. He is one of the top geniuses among all the star-level geniuses in Tianzhu Mountain.

Given time, as long as Terence doesn't perish, he will definitely become a top-tier elite within Tianzhu Mountain.

Such talent is quite rare even in the entire Golden Lion Starfield.

However, compared to Lu Qingshan, Terence's so-called talent seems insignificant.

Just now, after fifty years of cultivation, Lu Qingshan finally successfully entered the third level of the Earth Domain!
