Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 12

Wang Wei was sent out of the Pagoda with all the other disciples. Each of them had benefited a lot after this trial.

In fact, this time, the star of the Second Trial was not Wang Wei. It was actually Li Jun. All the core disciples have already started cultivated, so they are already used to the concept of loneliness. When they retreat in seclusion, although they will not spend hundreds of years, retreating for a few decades is quite common. As such, this trial did not have as much of an impact on them as mortals like Wang Wei and Li Jun.

As for Li Jun, the reason that he shined the most in this trial was due to the fact that he was used to loneliness.

In the Li family, beside his mother, no one would interact with him. Even his father, he would only see him at the diner table. But then, few words were exchanged between them.

Li Jun was used to the cold, indifferent, and aloof eyes of the people around him. Loneliness was already a part of his daily life. _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

So, in this trial, after a few years adapting to the environment, he soon adjusted his emotion and tried to make the most of the time he had.

Li Jun knew that the plan that his brother had made for both of them was the only chance to fundamentally change his destiny. However, this plan requires a tremendous amount of resources.

With the status of his big brother, the elders of the sect were willing to spend it on Wang Wei, but they were not willing to do it for him. It was his brother who insisted that he needed a powerful general to support him in the fight for Heaven Will; as such, the elders agreed to invest resources on him.

However, many people were dissatisfied. They could not complain about his big brother, but they could place their dissatisfaction on him. As such, Li Jun knew that The Pagoda Trial was his only way to prove to the sect that he was worth the resources that they would invest on him. So, the better his performance on the trials are, the better and more secure his future will be.

....

After adjusting their mind and spirit for a few days, Wang Wei, Li Jun, and the other disciples returned to the pagoda for the Third Trial.

The Third Trial can be considered one of the harshest trials of the Pagoda. The purpose of this trial is simple and quite straightforward: that is pain.

In this trial, the testers will experience all kind of torture--both to the body and the soul--and they simply have to endure it.

Wang Wei was at loss on how to design this test at first, but then, he simply modelled it after the Chinese 18 Hell from his past life.

After entering the Pagoda, Wang Wei found himself bound by chains surrounded by a bunch of demons. On top of his head, there was a plaque with the word: "Chamber of Tongue Ripping".
