The sequence is too involutional, luckily I am too.

Chapter 106 Filthy Tree Species, Symbiotic Sequence Reappears

"If they can't even withstand this kind of test, how can we expect them to protect humanity!"

As an instructor, Luo Lin made no attempt to hide his disappointment with the many illusionists.

The other three instructors didn't say much, but their eyes revealed that they shared the same thought.

With such mental resistance and willpower, how could they possibly withstand true primal enlightenment!

"Those who kill their fellow citizens shall be expelled from the original shelter and never allowed to enter again."

Wan Zhuliu suddenly spoke, his voice filled with an unyielding tone.

Upon receiving Wan Zhuliu's order, Luo Lin immediately took action.

A golden cross flashed in his eyes, and he uttered a majestic voice: "No one shall persecute their fellow countrymen here!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the examinees who had persecuted their fellow countrymen were enveloped in beams of golden light and then disappeared from the spot.

"Words become law? No, these are the laws governing the judicial process!"

Lu Yan raised an eyebrow upon seeing this, but shouldn't that be an ability possessed by a high-ranking individual? Could it be that Luo Lin is actually a high-ranking individual?

As Luo Lin took action, the number of examinees in the underground palace decreased sharply, until less than a hundred remained before the competition stopped.

Some of these people, like Lu Yan, resisted the illusion from the very beginning, but most of them gradually regained their senses during the battle.

Seeing that they had successfully passed this hurdle, the remaining candidates all breathed a sigh of relief.

However, upon seeing the remaining time, the candidates' expressions turned grim.

Although so much time had passed in their perception, in reality less than five minutes had passed!

With fifty-five minutes remaining, Wan Zhuliu couldn't just sit idly by; there were likely even more terrifying trials to come.

"Congratulations on advancing to the next round."

Then, Wan Zhuliu stood up and threw an iron token into the air.

Suddenly, the token transformed into a dark vortex in the air, pulling all those holding the token into it.

"This aura is somewhat similar to that of the secret realm from last time."

Lu Yan sensed the escaping energy within the vortex and leaped into it.

But before entering, Lu Yan sensed a strong killing intent; who else could it be but Chu Xuan!

He looked back and saw that Chu Xuan's face was full of confidence, as if he could defeat him in this round.

So, are there still traps in this round of assessment?

Lu Yan sensed the development of the dream demon servant, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

Let's get rid of it as soon as possible.

Suddenly, Chu Xuan, who was originally confident of winning, felt a chill down his spine, as if he were being stared at by some terrifying monster.

He immediately focused his senses, but could not find any suspicious persons.

Why have I been so suspicious lately? Am I just too tired?

"Young Master Chu, it's time for us to go in."

Seeing Chu Xuan standing there in a daze, Qian Xin whispered a reminder.

"understood."

Chu Xuan snapped out of his daze upon hearing this and, seeing that only a few of them remained in the underground palace, entered the vortex.

The true champion is always the last to appear!

As Lu Yan passed through the vortex, he sensed a familiar aura.

Surprising!

[The Nightmare Shepherd has discovered numerous bizarre entities, and, coveting them, requests to join the battle!]

Lu Yan looked up and indeed found that the surroundings were filled with a large number of strange creatures attacking the candidates who had entered earlier.

Those who are sent to the Primal Sanctuary are at least Sequence 8, and most of them have fought against the supernatural.

However, many people were facing such a large number of strange creatures for the first time, and they were all in a sorry state.

Especially for those physical sequences that haven't awakened their specific traits, they can only flee in panic when faced with something strange.

"So, this round of assessment involved surviving from the clutches of the supernatural?"

Lu Yan understood immediately, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He's the one who should be thinking about survival.

With a thought, the Seven Emotions Ghost silently emerged from the realm of ghosts, greedily rushing towards the surrounding eerie creatures.

For the Seven Emotions Ghost, these strange occurrences are a great tonic.

As long as it devours enough of the strange origin, Seven Emotions Ghost's strength can increase rapidly, and it may even directly climb to Sequence 6!

Then, amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the group, Lu Yan strolled through the trial realm as if taking a leisurely walk, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

Only now did Chu Xuan and his group arrive late.

However, upon seeing the numerous strange creatures within the trial realm, he frowned slightly.

"Was this the originally planned trial realm?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Xin immediately stepped forward and said, "No, the original plan was to visit the Mythical Beast Realm, not this one."

As he spoke, Qian Xin's eyes darted around, and he said, "Young Master Chu, could it be that the Fourth Judge discovered our actions and secretly changed the trial realm?"

Chu Xuan remained silent upon hearing this. The reason he was able to influence the assessment in that way was because of his father—the Third Judge, Chu Sheng.

As Wan Zhuliu is also a presiding judge, he can naturally modify the assessment process if he wants.

"But this actually helped me out of nowhere."

Chu Xuan took out a metal box covered with seals from his pocket and carefully tore off the seals.

Only a seal inscribed with sealing runes could deceive Wan Zhuliu's perception.

He only dared to take this thing out in this secret place where no one could see it.

Without the seal to suppress it, an extremely foul odor emanated from it.

Shen Qin and her group quickly retreated, afraid of being tainted by the foul odor.

The terrifying thing about the supernatural is that being touched by it will pollute one's extraordinary characteristics and affect future achievements.

The contents of this box were even more filthy than the bizarre things scattered all over the place.

Chu Xuan was equally cautious, always using the corrupting aura to isolate himself from the filth, while taking out a scroll, spreading it out, and placing the wooden box on it.

Then, Chu Xuan took a piece of bed sheet from Qian Xin and placed it on the wooden box.

If Lu Yan were here, he would find that this piece of bed sheet came from the room where he rested last night!

The scroll flashed, and a mysterious force destroyed the wooden box, revealing a pitch-black tree seed.

The filthy stench instantly intensified, engulfing the shredded sheets.

The strange creatures around them, sensing the presence of the tree, all turned and rushed towards the dark tree.

Soon, the fastest-rushing eerie creature touched the tainted tree seed.

The filthy tree species did not resist; instead, it actively merged into the strange body.

But the eerie creature had also turned completely black, its eyes vacant as it looked around as if searching for something.

However, only a moment later, the corrupted monster spotted its target and sped away.

The surrounding eerie creatures, drawn by the foul aura, rushed to chase after it, only to be assimilated by the filth and become part of its body the moment they touched it.

Seeing this, a smug look reappeared in Chu Xuan's eyes.

"Once you are parasitized by this filthy tree species, even if Xue Jiansheng is present, he will not let you go."

For a moment, he suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for the scene of Xue Jiansheng personally executing Lu Yan.

What right does a mere vagrant have to earn the attention of the Apocalypse? Death is the only end you deserve!

At the same time, after absorbing a large number of strange creatures, the Seven Emotions Ghost's form became more condensed and more realistic.

Especially Yama, even just standing there, makes people afraid to look him in the eye.

"But why haven't the conditions for advancing to the Nightmare Shepherd level appeared yet?"

Lu Yan frowned slightly. The attributes involved in the Dream Demon Shepherd are nothing more than nature, the bizarre, and dreams.

He has recently done a lot of related actions, but he just can't trigger it.

"Perhaps I need another opportunity."

Lu Yan couldn't think of a good solution for the time being, so he could only put it aside for the time being and instead start to look at the surrounding environment.

This secret place seems to have been transformed from an abandoned city; apart from being deserted, it is no different from an ordinary city.

But Lu Yan didn't think the focus of this assessment would be on those strange things.

Even if there are many candidates, they can easily handle them with a little practice, so the selection process is completely ineffective.

The only explanation is that there is something more important in this city.

Just then, Lu Yan suddenly noticed something and abruptly accelerated, rushing away into the distance.

"Damn it, how come I never realized how troublesome the supernatural was before!"

Holding a gun in one hand, Meng Kai, his body enveloped in a surge of qi and blood, struggled to fight his way through the horde of strange creatures.

Actually, he shouldn't have been in such a sorry state. After all, he was a Sequence 7 superhuman, and his blood and qi characteristics were already effective against the strange phenomena.

Just because Lu Yan cut off my arm yesterday, I've still not recovered from the loss of qi and blood. Last night, I went through a fierce battle to buy a house, so the loss is even greater.

Although he can barely hold on for now, if this continues, he will probably soon become food for these monsters.

But at that moment, several Sequence 7 monsters suddenly rushed out from the side and slammed into Meng Kai's one-armed arm.

Caught off guard, Meng Kai's arm went limp, and he lost his grip on the spear, which fell to the ground.

The strange creatures that were eyeing him covetously would not let him retrieve the spear, and they pounced on him one by one.

Meng Kai felt a chill in his heart, and in his fear, he grabbed a broken broom from the doorway of the house and swung it at the strange creature.

Surprisingly, this seemingly ordinary broom extinguished the eerie creature.

Not only that, Meng Kai actually felt a strange power spreading along the broom and flowing into his body.

"This...this broom is actually a strange object?"

Overjoyed, Meng Kai pressed his advantage and frantically "cleaned" the eerie place.

As the strange creatures continued to perish, Meng Kai's physical strength gradually recovered, even surpassing his previous levels.

But Meng Kai didn't notice that as he used the broom, his eyes were gradually turning into an eerie black.

Within his body, a completely new sequence is rapidly brewing.

Similar situations were occurring throughout the abandoned city, all of which Lu Yan observed.

"This is a symbiotic sequence?"

Lu Yan's eyes were unreadable. He had clearly intercepted the transport of the symbiotic sequence, yet he was still here.

In other words, the symbiotic sequence is not just the property of Shelter 056.

Most importantly, how did something like this end up in the assessment of the traceability plan?
