Chapter 148

''Eternal Tree leaves??'' Samuels eyes opened wide in horror. He was at the Eternal Tree? The Centre of the Eternal battlefield.

His thoughts proved true, when his eyes finally adjusted to the sights he saw an endless canopy of leaves. His own body was currently laying on a brach the size of a low level plane easily!

He couldn't see the end even with his Rank 2 Warrior eyesight.

Even more horrifically, each piece of bark seemed to hold endless power, Samuel was confident that even a Rank 3 Warrior couldn't leave a mark.

''Bzzzz'' A faint buzzing came into Samuels ears. When he turned his head he saw a little black and yellow bumble bee floating by.

Samuels eyes turned to fear as he quickly distanced himself from the bee. It exuded the Aura of a Rank 3 Warrior!

''What the hell? Even a bee is so perverted here?'' Samuel cried in despair, his eyes only now noticing dozens of insects and birds flying between the leaves chirping happily.

However they were all warriors! Some larger birds hovered very far in the distance, Samuel couldn't even sense their depths.

''System, how is this a Unique Opportunity to me? Isn't it just a death trap!'' Samuel wanted to cry, how would he make it out of here alive?

[Host please don't panic, the Eternal Tree enforces no fighting on its body. As for how it is a unique opportunity, please explore for yourself.]

After that the system wouldn't reply to Samuels questions.

''At Least I won't be killed.'' Samuel regained a bit of confidence, he stood up shakily still afraid of the creatures buzzing around him.

With no other choice he began to walk towards the end of the branch. His greedy eyes occasionally glanced at the leaves hanging off of the branches. There were definitely billions in his own sight.

Each could represent an Eternal Guard! Thats a warrior who grows with Samuel, definitely incredible.

But Samuel definitely couldn't even touch them. Well he didn't dare try.

So helplessly he walked forward, This one branch was seemingly unending.

He walked easily for five or six days. But he didn't see the end of the branch. And just as he was about to start panicking a sight appeared in front of his eyes.

Strangely it was a giant snail!

As Samuel got closer he realised some weirder details, a wispy white beard, white eyebrows and clearly ageing skin.

The snail looked peaceful but the impression it gave Samuel was like an endless void. Definitely the most terrifying creature he has ever seen.

Samuel unintentionally slowed down his steps when he saw it.

As soon as he stopped however, the eyes of the snail slowly opened and flashed directly towards Samuel.

It was just a glance, but it sunk Samuel into the depths of hell. His legs shook and his body was soaked with sweat.

He had every impulse to kneel, just as he was about to fall to his knees; however, he saw a faint shadow of his clones appear in his mind, helping him resist the power.

At the same time Caterpillar Samuel, who was in a court meeting suddenly sat down and started sweating.

''My King are you Alright!'' The officials immediately ran towards him.

And Serpentine Samuel, who was on a hunting mission with two other disciples, killed the beast with a single slash and immediately started panting feeling an incredible pressure.

''Senior Brother!''

Samuel felt relieved at the alleviating pressure.

''Impressive young one,to be able to resist a fraction of my power.'' The snail said calmly as he looked at Samuel.

In fact he was quite surprised that a Rank 2 Warrior could resist his power. Even if it is just a slither.

But the snail didn't let it show with his actions.

Samuel heard the snail speak and looked up in shock.

''Sorry sir, I didn't intend to disturb your rest. I will go the other direction if you wish. '' Samuel put on a humble look and was rushing to leave.

''Don't be in such a rush. It has been many years since I've last seen someone here. I will give you a chance to entertain me. If you complete my trial ill give you this as a reward. How about it?''

The snail said slowly and calmly. But each word shook Samuel to his soul.

More importantly, Samuel focused on the reward the Snail was offering. When he finished speaking a small leaf appeared in front of the snail.

Obviously it was an Eternal Leaf.

But Samuel didn't show his interest on his face. He expected this trial to be difficult, how could he do it all for just an Eternal Leaf.

''Not enough young one? Heh alright I'll raise the price.'' The snail understood what Samuel meant.

His beard shook, and Samuel saw a small crystal fall out and slowly float into the air.

''This little thing took a lot of work to get, I almost got hunted down by those cute elves!'' The snail chuckled lightly but his words shocked Samuel.

This item is from the elves? What is it? And how strong is this Snail to not care about the Elves hunting him down?'

''Don't try to think about what it is, you won't know.'' The snail spoke calmly, as if Samuels ignorance is expected.

''This is a Fragment of Life, one of the prized possessions of the Elves. It contains the purest power of life. For someone of your level it should be very helpful for your practice. ''

Although the snail didn't explain much about it, Samuel was still looking forward to it. Something that can be treasured by the elves is definitely valuable.

''Sir, I am willing to accept your trial. What is needed?'' Samuel walked forward excitedly.

''I like your bravery, young one. This trial is quite simple.'' As the Snail spoke, Samuel saw another small snail appear behind him.

It had an identical look, except it was only a metre tall and its moustache and eyebrows were brown.
