Primordial Cultivator

"To unlock that function, you would have to pass a trial first." Fan Ping said in a solemn tone.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei became dumbfounded when there was more trial for him to do.

"How does that even make sense?" Yang Wei asked.

He already controlled the Pagoda- or at least that was what he thought.

Therefore, Yang Wei found it confusing that he would still need to do more trials to unlock some of the functions available in the Pagoda.

Fan Ping shrugged his shoulders at Yang Wei's question.

"Don't look at me with such eyes, Yang Wei." Fan Ping said.

"I'm not the one who created these rules so I'm innocent." He added.

Yang Wei stared at Fan Ping with a deadpan expression.

"Who is the one that created the rules then?" Yang Wei asked.

Fan Ping was about to open his mouth to speak but kept it shut right away.

"Sorry, but disclosing that person wouldn't do you any good- not that I can tell you either way," Fan Ping replied.

Yang Wei clicked his tongue in annoyance. "Can't you just give me the function instead of wasting time in some trials?"

"No can do! Rules are rules, so unless you don't wish to use such a function, your only choice is to complete the trial."

"Have I ever told you this? You are no different than Xie Dong." Yang Wei said coldly.

Fan Ping shrugged his shoulders.

"So are you going to take the trial?" Fan Ping asked.

Yang Wei nodded his head dejectedly.

"What other choice do I have?" Yang Wei asked sarcastically. "Without knowing what's happening outside, I could possibly be surrounded by a bunch of Killer Bees the moment I leave."

"Since you agreed to take the trial, I have one piece of good news for you at least. It's the fact that you can keep taking on the trial if you fail." Fan Ping laughed heartily.

Before Yang Wei could even reply, Fan Ping snapped his finger and the scenery around Yang Wei began to change.

A blinding light flashed through Yang Wei's eyes, causing him to close it briefly for a moment.

By the time Yang Wei opened his eyes slightly, he found himself in a dark environment surrounded by darkness.

"Senior Fan Ping, where is this?" Yang Wei asked as he found it difficult to see.

In fact, the first thing Yang Wei tried to do was use his spiritual perception to sense around, only to no avail.

"This trial is called Darkness Shooting- one that tests the person's capability in fighting despite having their vision lowered to the bottom." Fan Ping's voice resounded.

"The rules are extremely simple. Occasionally there would be some sort of items being launched up to the air, and if you managed to hit them with your spiritual qi before it landed, then you would gain points."

Yang Wei raised an eyebrow.

"Does it count if I only hit them slightly- even if it's a scratch?" Yang Wei asked.

"Yes, it will count but don't get ahead of yourself. This is after all a Pagoda trial and not some children's game."

Yang Wei's expression turned solemn as he nodded his head.

"How much time do I get and what's the minimum amount of points I have to achieve to pass the trial?"

"There will be a total of 20 items being shot and if you manage to get at least 15 items then you will pass. As for the time limit, as soon as the 20 items finish launching up, then that'll be the end of the Darkness Shooting."

After understanding the rules of the trial, Yang Wei showed a resolute expression to tell Fan Ping to begin.

"I'm ready, Senior Fan Ping." Yang Wei said.

Fan Ping didn't reply and merely snapped his finger.

Sometime later, Yang Wei could feel the environment around him begin to change structure despite not being able to see the changes.

A few seconds later, a loud popping sound echoed from afar.

Without hesitating, Yang Wei quickly sent out a wave of profound qi toward the direction of the sound.

Alas, Yang Wei failed to hit the first item that was launched into the air.

However, Yang Wei wasn't disappointed with such a result since it was only his first try.

'Seems like the trajectory between the item being thrown to the sky is only around 5 seconds. That means I can calculate when the item would reach a velocity of zero at its peak and that would be the best time to send out my profound qi.' Yang Wei thought.

With the first item, Yang Wei could easily use simple physics to help him out with the trial.

Thus, for the next 4 items that were launched into the air, Yang Wei didn't focus on landing a hit.

Instead, he focused on the time he heard the sound and when it dropped to the ground to have an estimate.

"This brat… What is he doing?" Fan Ping mumbled softly as he glanced at Yang Wei through a projection screen.

Fan Ping was thoroughly confused by Yang Wei's action when he saw that he didn't even try to send out profound qi to hit the target.

"Did he give up after one failure?" Fan Ping questioned himself as he waited for the 6th item to be launched.

If Yang Wei failed to hit this one, then his trial is considered a failure since there was no chance he would achieve a 15 out of 20 score any longer.

As Fan Ping wondered what's in Yang Wei's mindset, Yang Wei had already ready himself for the next item.

SWOOSH!

Yang Wei perked his ears up when he heard the launching sound again.

With his eyes closed, Yang Wei silently calculated the trajectory and timing of the item when it would reach its peak.

"Now it's the time," Yang Wei suddenly said as he flicked his hand and a wave of profound qi was sent in a certain direction.
