System notification continuously rang in Henrick's head that gave him a specific rhythm while killing the ambush ghosts.
Since he didn't have a fire vine to dodge, Henrick's killing efficiency was very high as he continued killing the ambush ghosts one after another.
He didn't bother about the strength of the ambush ghosts.
He didn't bother how many there were around them.
The only thing he focused on was killing and he even forgot to take a break until he heard a specific series of system notifications.
'Ding,
Trial progress:-
1) Killed 1020/ 1000 rank 1 ambush ghosts.
2) Killed 120 / 100 rank 2 ambush ghosts.
3) Killed 2 / 10 rank 3 ambush ghosts.
4) Killed 0 / 1 rank 4 ambush ghost.
'Ding,
Congratulations to the participant for completing fifty percent of the trial.
'Ding,
As a result, the trial master is gifting the participant with a special item. Please check your inventory.
'Huf huf'
Finally, when he stopped to check the system notifications, Henrick started breathing heavily.
'I already completed two tasks?'
Even Henrick was surprised when he saw the system notifications because he didn't expect it as he was entirely focusing on killing and didn't bother to count.
'I was hunting them for more than an hour, I guess. So, it's not a wonder to finish the two trials; however, the actual trial starts now.'
When he thought about how long he was killing the ambush ghosts, Henrick's surprise disappeared without a trace.
He knew that the real trial begins now because he still has to kill 8 rank 3 ambush ghosts among the ambush ghosts that were surrounding him.
Moreover, the actual problem is Henrick still didn't learn how to differentiate between the ambush ghosts.
So, among the hundreds of ambush ghosts around him, he had to find out rank 3 ambush ghosts and since he could not identify them, he had to kill all the ambush ghosts until he got informed by the system.
'Anyway, I will check what the trial master has sent me.'
Nevertheless, Henrick didn't think much as he decided to check what he got from the trial master.
'This must be it.'
Soon, he opened his system inventory to see the item and found something that he had never seen before.
'Let's see.'
With a thought, a small pendant appeared in his hands.
'Ding,
Item name:- Vision sigil.
Effect:- As long as the pendant is worn by cultivators, they could see one kilometer in the ghost worlds for an hour.
Note:- It can only be used one time before it disintegrates into nothing.
Soon, the information regarding the pendant appeared in front of him.
'Exactly what I need.'
Henrick was satisfied with the item he received from the trial master.
'Anyway, I will use it later.'
However, he didn't use it because he didn't feel any use for it.
Even though he was surrounded by hundreds of ambush ghosts, Henrick was not worried much because they were just cowards.
Moreover, Henrick felt that the pendant would be very useful while fighting against a rank 4 ambush ghost.
'I will resume my killing then.'
After checking the Vision sigil, Henrick took a few more moments to rest before going back to his killing.
'Swoosh'
'Puchi'
'Kacha'
'Swoosh'
'Puchi'
Henrick didn't stop as he was fully focused on killing the ambush ghosts.
...
In Aecrath.
Outside the treasure land.
"Finally, we finished laying down all the formations."
All the elders of the beast mountain heaved a sigh of relief once they finished laying down the formations on the mountain and around the mountain.
"Let's go and take a nice rest."
Soon, one of the elders suggested taking a rest because they were working for a while now and exhausted too much of their energy while laying down those formations.
So, he stretched his body and started flying towards their residences.
"Are you sure we should be resting?"
"That's right! What if one of the sects attacks us?"
"Just thinking about it makes me restless and you are talking about sleeping."
As for the other elders of the beast mountain, they were not as calm as the first elder who was putting a calm look on his face.
"Just have some faith in Master Fionk. He said that these formations are very hard to deal with. So, if anyone tries to enter our beast mountain without our permission, they would forget about leaving our beast mountain forever."
The first elder lazily replied because he was fully tired because before the mountain was shifting the places, he was busy with many things and adding to the fact that he put a lot of effort into the formations earlier, he just wanted to go to sleep.
As for the attack on the beast mountain, he didn't bother much because he had faith in Master Fionk whom he had known for more than 50 years now.
So, he asked others to have the same faith in Master Fionk.
"It's not about faith…."
"Stop it. I don't want to hear anything. There is another thing you need to know that we are still protected by the Blazing inferno sect. So, don't worry."
Before one of the elders would give an explanation, the first elder interrupted him and informed all the elders about the protection from the Blazing inferno sect.
'What?'
'Is it true?'
'Then, I can relax.'
As soon as they heard the first elder's words, the remaining elders heaved a sigh of relief and decided to relax peacefully.
'These fools get accustomed to the protection of the blazing inferno sect.'
When he saw the relaxed expressions on the faces of the elders of the beast mountain, the first elder scoffed at them before rushing into his cultivation abode.
Even though the first elder was dissatisfied with the other elders' expressions when they heard they have the protection of the Blazing inferno sect, he didn't blame them really because he knew all the elders were having more trust in the blazing inferno sect because when they were in the twin mountain, no one bothered them.
As for the formation, since they were the ones who laid them on the ground, they felt the formations were a little too easy to create. So, they felt more relaxed when they got to know about the protection from the Blazing inferno sect.
…
In front of one of the cultivation abodes in the beast mountain.
'Young master Saer, are you sure you want to join the Beast mountain?'
A young man who had a muscular body asked another young man in front of him.
The other young man had different hair that was orange in colour and whenever the sun rays fell on them, they shine a little.
He was none other than Saer, who owes Henrick three things.
Saer promised Henrick that he would help him with three things; however, Henrick was nowhere near him to help him.
Nevertheless, he didn't forget about them and decided to help Henrick in the future when he became powerful.
When he was in the outer sect of the blazing inferno fire sect, his hair used to be in yellow-colour and it didn't shine as it shined now.
Since the old man Fionk already knows Saer's background, he didn't bother to hide his hair colour which reveals his family name.
As for the young man with muscles, he was Roll, who addressed Saer as 'Young master'.
When the baby fire monkey was attacked by many outer sect disciples, Saer and Roll tried to help it; however, it was the baby fire monkey who helped them in return by pulling them into the beast mountain.
"Yes."
To Roll's question, Saer nodded his head as he explained the reason, "I think the best mountain is the right place for us to become stronger and find out who is the mastermind that framed my family."
By the time Saer finished his words, his face was filled with hatred.
"Anyway, what do you think? Am I taking things too fast?"
Controlling his emotions, Saer asked Roll regarding his decision.
"I have no right to judge the decisions made by the young master. Wherever you go, I will follow."
Roll kneeled on one knee as he replied to Saer.
"I know."
When he heard the reply, Saer could not help but reveal a slight smile on his face as he recalled some things from his past.
How carefree they used to be and everything got changed in a single night that made him an orphan.
"Whoever you are, I am going to find you and I will destroy you at any cost."
Saer clenched his fists and looked into the sky as he muttered to himself.
When Saer heard those words, he also clenched his fists and looked at his young master with a face full of respect
