The Primordial Record novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381 Collective Effort

A whistle came from behind and Mira turned her head, it came from one of her minders who pointed to their left.

A single youth was gaining on their group, he had left the other members of his castle behind and was going solo. Judging from his movement, this must be a genius with a Spirit Body.

It was impressive enough in this batch that there were three candidates with Spirit Bodies, and it was an especially great stroke of luck that Andar and Mira found themselves in the same castle.

The youth did not push the extra distance that Andar and the team were going for, instead having reached the minimum distance to reach the Heavenly Fate Meditation Art, he began tearing his way through the cloud and he disappeared from sight.

Mira looked at Andar with a frown and he smiled, "If you want to go fast, act alone, if you would like to go far…"

"Zip it, crow mouth, your words of wisdom are getting on my nerves." Mira shot back and increased her pace once more, and the rest of the team struggled to catch up.

You could picture this cloud to be in the shape of a funnel, it was broader on top, but as you get lower to the base, it begins to reduce until it falls to a single point.

Andar's goal was to get as close to the middle as possible, so they could penetrate straight down to the base of the cloud in one go, in that manner he would reach the hand of the Chained god.

It was not just because of the Supreme Meditation Art, which his main body would find very valuable and may be able to use in a way that may defy all understanding, his main body was also interested in this hand, for there was a soul inside it.

Reaching their destination, Mira and Andar stopped and the rest of the team passed them by and gathered in a circle, with Andar and Mira at the center, Andar looked at Mira and as one they nodded, Mira's piercing blue eyes shined as she raised her right fist upwards, giving the signal to begin.

The clouds could hold a lot of weight, but there was a trick to getting through each layer, especially the topmost layers that held the Ordinary and Outstanding Meditation Arts.

Half of the candidates jumped, and while they were in the air, the other half also jumped. The moment the first candidates landed the clouds began to vibrate, before it could settle the other candidates also landed, and the grounds caved beneath them, bringing all 300 candidates to the next layer. The cloud above them zipped close with a resounding snap, like an elastic band that was retracted after being pulled.

Mira breathed a sigh of relief, she was happy they were able to organize their castle's candidates to become the best at tackling the Trial ground, she knew it was the presence of her and Andar, two great Spirit Bodies working together in cooperation that led to such an occurrence.

She had no idea she could meet someone like this on the Trial Ground, and she began to wonder, what if both of them were capable of reaching the Supreme Meditation Art? Blowing away those silly thoughts from her head, she focused on the team, making sure everyone was in sync.
