CHAPTER 335: CHAPTER 122 [THE FINAL TRIAL!] (7200 WORDS)_3

It was only wearing a pair of oversized shorts, with most of its massive skin exposed, layers of fat stacked one on top of another, undulating like water waves.

Between the enormous head and body, one could hardly discern a neck; piles of fat made it seem as though the head was directly connected to the body.

On that head, there was no sign of hair or beard, as smooth as a peeled boiled egg.

The sound of its breathing resembled a fan running at full capacity, as if the monster seated high above expelled strong gusts of air with each breath, filling the air with an indescribable stench!

It sat there, but it wasn’t resting; it was devouring voraciously!

One by one, black skeleton puppets held iron basins filled with entrails, lining up from the edge of the steps from top to bottom.

The puppet on the topmost step stood beside the Meat Mountain Monster’s chair. Even though the monster was seated, its size was still over twice as large as the puppets.

The puppet struggled to raise its hands, trying to lift the iron basin over its head.

The Meat Mountain Monster reached out, pinching a piece of entrails from the basin, tossing it into its mouth and swallowing it down with a gulp!

Its eating speed wasn’t fast, but steadily, one bite after another, never stopping. Within moments, a basin of entrails was emptied. The puppet immediately turned to leave, descending the steps.

The puppet behind it quickly followed, came to the chair, and struggled to lift the basin filled with entrails...

Chen Yan stood at the bottom of the steps, coldly watching this Meat Mountain Monster gorging on basins of entrails...

After it had consumed the third basin, the massive meat mountain of a monster finally paused, lowered its head, and from its face, almost unidentifiable due to the pressing fat, it struggled to open its eyes, its gaze sweeping towards Chen Yan.

"Honorable Master of the Secret Realm, this is the first guest to pass the trial on the third night tonight," the white-clad puppet finally spoke.

"Mmm~~"

The Meat Mountain Monster nodded, then stared at Chen Yan——Chen Yan clearly saw, when this monster stared at him, a large, viscous drop of drool fell from the corner of its mouth!

Forcing down his nausea, Chen Yan shouted, "Are you the Master of this Secret Realm?"

The Meat Mountain Monster gave Chen Yan a glance, but did not answer, simply withdrew its gaze and turned its head back, focusing on its meal again.

"Honorable guest," the white-clad puppet beside him said slowly, "since the other guests have not yet completed the trial of the third night, we must ask you to wait here for a while."

Chen Yan had an inkling and nodded, "So we need to wait for everyone to gather before the final trial begins?"

"Yes."

Chen Yan slowly said, "I thought it would be truly over after the trial of the third night."

"The rules were announced before the trial began, lasting thirty-six hours, so..." The white-clad puppet looked at Chen Yan, bowing respectfully, "The third night is not the final trial; there is one last step."

"What is the content of the final step?"

"I’m sorry, but it will not be announced until all the guests who passed the trial on the third night and survived have gathered."

"..."

Chen Yan gave the white-clad puppet a deep look and nodded, "Then I’ll just wait here?"

"Yes." The white-clad puppet thought for a moment, "Of course, if during the trial of the third night, all other guests have died, then you alone will proceed with the final step. In that case, you need not wait, and we can start in advance."

Chen Yan looked around; in this hall, there were no seats prepared. He simply sat down on the steps, coldly saying, "Then let’s wait!"

The white-clad puppet said no more, stepping back slowly, and left.

Chen Yan sat on the steps, turning sideways, coldly staring at the Meat Mountain Monster at the top of the steps!

Under the Qi Observation Skill, he could see the monster’s primordial qi flowing.

Clearly, as the Master of the Secret Realm, the Meat Mountain Monster did not hide its primordial qi.

The Qi Observation Skill revealed that this monster’s primordial qi cultivation was far stronger than his own!

Ascension Realm?

Chen Yan nodded.

Though his heart was slightly cautious, he was not afraid.

Ascension Realm, he had killed one before!

The old ghost in Port City was in the Ascension Realm!

Moreover, since then, Chen Yan had mastered some new spells and techniques. His current strength was much greater than when he was in Port City.

But Chen Yan still waited, not rushing to act.

Because he always had a strange feeling in his heart—things seemed not to be this simple!

The hall was filled with the sound of the Meat Mountain Monster’s frenzied eating, making Chen Yan feel even more nauseated as he watched the monster chew with its eyes fixed on him!

In those eyes, there was clearly... craving!

It wants to eat me!

Chen Yan suddenly understood the intent in the Secret Realm Master’s eyes.

·

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yan heard footsteps from outside the hall.

Soon, the white-clad puppet re-entered!

Following it were Ouyang, Chu Keqing, Kudai, and the girl with long black straight hair!
