System: Replicating The Heavens
Chapter 61 Ch 61: Test Of First Floor

Before the argument between Old Man Song and Kim Min-Oh as well as Hug could catch fire, they were stopped by Ivaan and Aaban. Although these two people were not friends and were most likely enemies, right now was not the time for an inflict between their teams to occur.

After this matter was resolved, everyone also thought for a while, agreeing with Eloise's suggestion. The burden in everyone's heart was lifted when they come to the conclusion that they were teleported here and nothing here was an illusion. After briefly determining the direction, they headed towards the depths of the mountains.

The terrain of the Earth King's Ancient Land was steep and very vast. The endless mountain range gave off a majestic and ancient aura. From time to time, the howls of unknown beasts would come from the forest deep in the mountains.

What secrets were hidden here?

These secrets will be revealed step by step.

Because it was boring, Kim Min-Oh and Hugo also came to Alex's side to chat, for Alex was walking side to side with Eloise and Ezra, the two beautiful girls. The crowd quickly started a heated discussion.

"Miss Eloise, what are you thinking about?" Alex casually asked after a few minutes.

Eloise smiled but did not reply. She was a very quiet person and there was an otherworldly aura within her silence. There were many male disciples in the group sneaking glances at her, including the genius like Ivaan and Aaban. After all, Eloise was too beautiful, how can she not have her admirers.

"AHH!"

"Help! Help! "

Just at that moment, a shrill and painful cry for help resounded in everyone's ears. Everyone immediately tensed up and followed the direction of the cry. A hundred meters in front of them, a man covered in blood raised his arm and cried for help.

Ivaan squinted his eyes and looked at Aaban and Aayan, and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Everyone quickly arrived in front of that man. When they saw his current appearance, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. He was about 23 or 24 years old and his entire body was soaked in blood. The wounds on his body looked as if they had been eaten by some wild beast, and the flesh on his right calf disappeared, leaving only a ghastly white bone.

"Anren?" Aayan couldn't help but shout out in shock when he recognized who this young man actually is. He quickly went up to check on the other party, "Anren, why is it you? What happened?"

"Save, save me!" The man's face was filled with pain as he reached out his bloody palm, "Save, save me! Don't, don't leave me. I, I…"

Before the man finished his sentence, his arm hung down powerlessly and fell to the ground. The expression on his face froze and his unfocused pupils revealed a strong sense of fear.

Dead!

Aayan clenched his fists when he saw the person called Anren dying in his arms and let out a long breath. His eyes flashed with a trace of sadness. This person was a good brother of his from the same force, the Heavenly Gate.

Ivaan's face also revealed a look of seriousness, he said: "Look at his wound, it's so strange, it looks like he was bitten by some kind of demonic beast."

"A Demonic Beast?" Raymond, who was behind him, muttered softly when he heard this.

"Maybe, maybe not," Ivaan replied, causing Raymond's eyelids to twitch slightly. However, before he could say anything, Ivaan again said: "We'll know what the situation is after we go over and take a look."

Everyone continued forward and after seeing Anren's miserable death, it was obvious that they became a lot more cautious. When Alex passed by Anren's corpse, he couldn't help but take two more glances and a trace of unease quietly rose in his heart.

"This is truly tragic. What did he encounter?" Hugo frowned and muttered to himself.

"It should be a demonic beast!"

"That's possible. It looks like we need to be careful."

The corpse on the ground was left far behind. However, as everyone left, Anren's lifeless eyes suddenly turned blood-red. His bloodied face also turned dark green. He opened his mouth and his teeth grew out from two corners, becoming extremely sharp. After that, he let out a low growl and looked in the direction where Alex and the group went. A fierce look flashed in his eyes but there was no sign of liveliness in them. It was as if these eyes were the eyes of a dead man, however, they also seem to be the eyes of a monster.

.....

After about a quarter of an hour, everyone stopped in their tracks. Everyone's expression changed completely.

What appeared in front of everyone was a large plaza. There were over four to five hundred corpses lying all over the plaza. About one hundred of them were human, while the rest were demonic beasts. Every corpse had one characteristic which was that they were eaten badly by something.

A few female disciples were all scared pale. Everyone thought Anren encountered a demonic beast from the start, but who would have thought there was something even worse in front of their eyes. Some people's faces were badly mutilated from being chewed on.

"What exactly happened here?" Ezra frowned with a face full of unconcealed worry.

"I... I don't know." Ivaan gave a heavy answer.

Will we still be continuing forward?

This was a question that everyone had to think about at the moment. The scene before their eyes was akin to a giant hand grabbing their necks as their hearts grew increasingly heavy.

"Let me go in and take a look." Ivaan made a decision. He was willing to be a touchstone. Under the gazes of the crowd, he stepped onto the square.

Even after walking for more than twenty meters, there was still no sign of movement. Following that, everyone began to move and followed Ivaan into the plaza.

The air here was filled with the thick smell of blood and a pungent smell of corruption. It was as if they had entered hell. Every one of them was really unaccustomed to this kind of cruel scene.

About ten minutes later, a stone bridge at the other end of the square appeared in everyone's line of sight. The stone bridge was extremely wide and was built using white stone bricks. It was nearly thirty meters in height and gave off a feeling of grandeur.

However, when they were less than fifty meters away from the stone bridge, something unexpected happened. The ground trembled slightly.

BOOM!

A deep black human figure emerged from the ground and a humanoid figure crawled out from the hole in the ground.

The creature's eyes were bloodshot and its skin and flesh were a deep black. Sharp fangs flickered in his mouth as he looked at everyone as if they were food.

"It's a Blood Corpse." Aayan could not help but exclaim. Everyone who knew what a Blood Corpse is was shocked at this moment.

Blood Corpse?

Hearing these words, everyone present turned pale with fright.

However, the Blood Corpse had no intention of giving them time to calm down. It rushed in front of the group ferociously and arrived in front of Old Man Song in an instant.

Old Man Song subconsciously struck out his palm that landed on the chest of the Blood Corpse. The Blood Corpse was directly shattered into many pieces as blood spurt out everywhere.

"Heh, it's just the lowest level of Blood Corpse. There's nothing to be afraid of."

Seeing that he has dealt with the Blood Corpse so easily, the Old Man Song started laughing and proudly said.

However, before he could finish his laughter, the ground began to tremble violently. Many craters on the ground appeared and dark arms stretched out from them one after another accompanied by the piercing sound of monsters' howls that caused one's scalp to go numb. One after another, the blood corpses began to appear, climbing out of the ground like tidewaters.

Their eyes were bloodshot and their skin and flesh were a deep black in color. Sharp fangs flickered in their mouth as they looked at everyone as if they were food.

"They are all the Blood Corpses." Raymond could not help but let out a surprised cry as his face instantly turned pale from fright.

At this time, the black figure that appeared with the first Blood Corpse spoke, "Everyone, welcome to the Valley of Blood. This is the name of the first floor of Earth King's Ancient Land and I'm the protector of this floor. If you want to go to the second floor, you all have to pass a test, that is to kill all these Blood Corpses."

"As long as all these Blood Corpses are killed, all of you'll be rewarded greatly and will be qualified to go to the second floor."
