how could he possibly interact with a leader of an ordinary clan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All this information was obtained by analyzing the murals inside the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many murals depicted the Snake Ancestor kneeling before a crimson flame in prayer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This burning crimson flame represented Di Zhao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the textual records on many murals and the analysis of damaged murals, it was revealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snake Ancestor’s faith in Di Zhao was shaken during the corruption of the world by the Black Black Tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The murals described the Colorful Mist Coast under the light of the Evil Moon, where life was ravaged, vast green vegetation withered, and resources were devoured by rampant evil influences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After countless prayers and sacrificial rituals, the Snake Ancestor never received the descent of the true god, and ultimately decided to attempt reclaiming his homeland through his own efforts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, the Snake Ancestor initiated the Blood Trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the temple trial many players are currently challenging—to screen out warriors with potential and grant them powerful strength to combat the Black Black Tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What happened afterward could not be further deciphered from the murals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Qi Sheng could foresee the subsequent developments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snake Ancestor led his people in resistance against the Black Black Tide, ending ultimately in defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This period clearly coincided with the stage when the guidance and the other three attendants fiercely battled the Black Black Tide Demon God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the “War of Catastrophe,” as described by the Evil Eye, the Colorful Mist Coast—already permeated by corruption energy—regained vitality; vast areas under the Evil Moon’s dominion were shattered, but the Snake Ancestor and his people were already dead, unable to witness their homeland’s return, leaving only a ruined temple standing to this day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the trial initiated by the Snake Ancestor to screen potential warriors still continued to operate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the temple, the guidance detected an energy source.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the presence of numerous energy impurities, after the guidance’s calculations, the converted yield would be approximately 10.864 million sacrificial power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike the energy sources collected by the Ice Blade clan using Iron Shell Bugs, this energy source was sealed and protected by multiple layers of seals and defenses; apart from forcibly breaking them through violence, it could only be accessed by following a pre-set procedure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Sheng considered attempting to crack it, but unless his physical body arrived, a player’s avatar could not break this seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he abandoned the idea of extracting the core of this energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, when players complete the trial, they are indirectly helping him extract the energy core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he modified the energy distribution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, completing the Snake Ancestor’s trial grants the challenger a feedback of the Snake Ancestor’s energy, condensing into a Snake Ancestor Mark within their body, purifying their physical form and enhancing their growth potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to Qi Sheng, this Snake Ancestor Mark was utterly useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Players’ bodies are constructed from sacrificial power; their innards are pure, devoid of impurities, and their growth potential has no bottleneck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normal lifeforms in the Monster World Iron Face numerous difficult-to-break life constraints during growth, but players have no such limitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as they acquire sufficient evolution points, they can raise their Soul Level and increase their strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This single mechanism grants players boundless growth potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Placing the Snake Ancestor Mark on a player is merely decorative, meaningless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy consumed to form the Snake Ancestor Mark is wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he filtered and converted the “Snake Ancestor Mark” awarded upon trial completion into sacrificial power directly, extracting a 30% handling fee—600 sacrificial power—while granting players 1400 sacrificial power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By completing the trial challenge, players indirectly help him extract the Snake Ancestor’s residual energy core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colorful Mist Coast, Snake Ancestor Temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After two days of attempts, Ding Yu returned to the temple, having still failed to complete the trial challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to when he first discovered the temple, the number of players attempting the challenge had noticeably decreased, and many had abandoned it after one or two tries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was the trial’s difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To date, only 33 players had successfully passed the challenge; forum players had been clamoring for detailed walkthroughs for hours, yet not a single player had provided one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After repeated failures, many players gave up on enduring the torment of the Snake Ancestor Temple challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Ding Yu, the challenge had only just begun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the temple, he followed the familiar route around the Snake Ancestor statue to the first trial gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having found a convenient path, he leapt forward swiftly and calmly, crossing the abyss in under three minutes to reach the second trial platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difficulty of the second trial surged sharply; many players lost the motivation to continue after failing here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after two days of experimentation, Ding Yu had discerned some patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The timing of the ground spikes’ emergence did not follow a fixed rhythm; instead, timing began the moment the challenger stepped on them, with each step triggering a change—likely a one-second delay before the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fell here five times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spent a total of 50 sacrificial power on revivals and 25 sacrificial power on teleportation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This expenditure hurt, but knowing he would receive 1400 sacrificial power upon completion, he saw it as fully recoverable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dodging, leaping, crouching—he remained mentally tense throughout, narrowly avoiding trap attacks multiple times before reaching the third platform at the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ahead lay the third trial of the temple: a labyrinth whose paths shifted constantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It tested the challenger’s observation and judgment; each wall’s spirit runes differed slightly, and a wrong step could lead directly into a trap zone and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the temple trial was saturated with lethal risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Ding Yu’s eyes, the Snake Ancestor wasn’t selecting potential warriors—he was outright slaughtering his own kind’s descendants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t dwell on this issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be understood as a game mechanic of the Eclipse Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this trial, Ding Yu attempted it four times and gained some understanding, so he walked without hesitation to the labyrinth’s entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After continuous analysis and judgment, Ding Yu reached the fourth trial platform after fifteen minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difficulty of the fourth trial surged sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The challenge area contained a massive circular platform over a hundred meters in diameter, its surface carved with intricate patterns, and at its center, a deep recess—apparently the origin point of energy convergence; whenever a faint glow flickered, the entire disc trembled slightly, as if responding to some call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along its edge, twelve portals were evenly spaced, each engraved with a different totem—roaring beasts, flying divine birds… embedded with crystals that shimmered in harmony with the glowing spirit runes on the disc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Ding Yu’s first attempt at this trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to forum players’ descriptions, this trial required defeating twelve types of illusionary monsters, each representing a different attribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The monsters were not physical entities nor energy constructs; they resembled projections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their attacks inflicted no real damage; the challenge resembled rock-paper-scissors, requiring the challenger to predict each monster’s attribute and stand before the totem that countered it, nullifying the projection’s attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the judgment was wrong, a wave of energy would erupt from the disc’s center, dissolving the challenger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It can be understood as the Five Elements' mutual overcoming on Earth: wood overcomes earth, earth overcomes water, water overcomes fire, fire overcomes metal, and metal overcomes wood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The player must stand at the disc’s center; when any totem on a portal lights up, they must swiftly move to the totem portal that counters its attribute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the surface, the challenge seemed simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difficulty lay in the increasing frequency of multiple totems lighting up simultaneously, requiring the challenger to rapidly shuttle between different totems, matching the rhythm to neutralize attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Control of movement speed and rhythm was the key to passing this trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for how to determine the attribute relationships between totems, the guidance had already provided the answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply memorize the sequence of totem attribute counter-relations given by the guidance, and judgment becomes effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On his first attempt, Ding Yu failed without any doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hour and twenty minutes later, he returned to the temple to continue his unfinished challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Failure, Black Room, resurrection, spatial teleportation, continue the challenge… this cycle repeated endlessly; each failure cost him 15 sacrificial power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another three days of death loops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yu had spent a total of 645 sacrificial power and finally reached the tenth trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ultimate trial of the temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him stretched a vertical stone wall rising endlessly; the challenger must scale the nearly perpendicular cliff, precisely timing jumps onto the extending and retracting stone slabs until reaching the trial’s peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the challenge, sudden crises would erupt: gravity suppression, bone-chilling ice, fire blasts, howling storms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tenth trial consumed Ding Yu 27 hours, during which he persistently experimented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He died eleven times before finally reaching the summit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he stood atop the trial peak, a beam of light shot from the Snake Ancestor statue before him and connected with his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A challenge notification echoed simultaneously in his mind and the regional channel:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Challenge Notification (Regional): Congratulations, player “Time of Yu,” you have completed the Snake Ancestor’s Trial Challenge and received a reward of 1400 sacrificial power.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the arduous trial, Ding Yu stood atop the cliff, arms outstretched, shouting in exhilaration toward the below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emotions surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taut nerves of many days released at once; the joy of victory flooded in like a Black Tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An indescribable sense of accomplishment rose within him—all his efforts and perseverance were rewarded in this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yu’s lips unconsciously curved upward; his eyes sparkled with excitement and pride—a validation of his countless falls and unwavering persistence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment of completion, his heart felt reborn after overcoming himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, the rewards from this challenge were modest; he had wasted days of hunting time entirely on completing the trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expended energy and endured pain were disproportionate to the gains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the sense of accomplishment and joy from completing the challenge was something hunting evil influences and insect swarms could never provide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened the forum, took a screenshot of the challenge success notification, and posted it on his personal homepage—his first milestone success in the Monster World, worthy of remembrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps in others’ eyes, his actions were utterly foolish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this was how he played the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also why, after the Assassin Flow playstyle emerged, he immediately changed his Star Vein combination to match the Assassin Flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Low error tolerance wasn’t a problem—he believed he could master the rhythm through countless practice sessions, moving with the elegance of Assassin players in the videos as he danced through the insect Black Tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was about to leave, a connection prompt suddenly popped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curious, he accepted the connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>NurseMomAlsoCrazy: Bro, I’ve seen your guide before, followed you, and just noticed you updated your profile—congrats on clearing the Temple Trial!

Failure is inevitable during the process. If you choose to let me guide you, you must endure every single failure, over and over.

Yes\u002FNo.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yu tapped the option in his mind—the team formation confirmation popped up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same moment, Ding Yu walked toward the teleportation array beside the Snake Ancestor statue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant he stepped on it, intense weightlessness slammed into him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When his vision cleared, he found himself standing on the stone altar at the Temple’s entrance, beneath him the faintly blurred one-way teleportation array, and beside him stood the Snake Ancestor statue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He exited the Temple and summoned the map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He noticed no teammate marker appeared on the map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant the other player was still in the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range region and hadn’t yet teleported to the Colorful Mist Coast map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>TimeOfYu: Where are you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>NurseMomAlsoCrazy: Bro, I’m heading home through the Bloodred Plains—about half an hour’s travel. I’m playing a Magic Defense Flow now, my legs are short and I can’t run fast. Don’t rush—I’m sprinting my hardest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the voice channel, NurseMomAlsoCrazy’s voice came with labored breaths—he was clearly running.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>TimeOfYu: No problem, I’ll wait. Take your time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>NurseMomAlsoCrazy: Thanks, Bro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, a blue dot appeared on the map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was located at a node teleportation zone near the coast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was rapidly moving toward Ding Yu’s position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting a long while, NurseMomAlsoCrazy finally came into Ding Yu’s view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked about eighteen, sweat tracing down his youthful yet increasingly defined Iron Face, his breath drawing in faint white mist—clearly, he had embedded a Qi-Consuming Soul Core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bro, I’m here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yu smiled slightly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t rush. Sit down, rest well—we’ll enter the trial soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm-hmm.” NurseMom nodded, then pulled a roasted spiritual fish fillet from his spatial inventory, tore it in half, and offered one piece to Ding Yu:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bro, I haven’t eaten yet—have some. This spiritual fish is amazing, try it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yu didn’t refuse—he took the fish and shoved it into his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed as they ate. Nightfall unfolded like a delicate painting across the land, the sunset’s glow filtering through the canopy fading slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air grew increasingly humid. Glowing insects, like fireflies, flickered to life in the darkness—scattered across the shadows like countless stars, the night rainforest radiated a dreamlike beauty unseen in the real world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Ding Yu stood up and looked at the boy, who had just finished his third canned ration:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s begin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go.” The boy nodded firmly, his demeanor humble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day later, after eight consecutive failed attempts, Ding Yu led the boy to the peak of the Temple Trial on the ninth try.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beam of energy shot from the Snake Ancestor statue and merged with the boy’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Challenger Prompt echoed in the boy’s mind and the regional channel—he cheered wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smile spread across Ding Yu’s Iron Face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a trade prompt popped up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Challenger Prompt: Player “NurseMomAlsoCrazy” requests to trade with you.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yu unhesitatingly selected “Reject.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanying the boy through the Temple Trial had been primarily an experiment—to test whether he could clear it while carrying a burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results proved it was possible, despite the increased difficulty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this test complete, Ding Yu now had confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, a new forum post drew significant player attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Guided Clear: Temple Trial on Colorful Mist Coast.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poster: TimeOfYu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Content: I offer guided clears for the Colorful Mist Coast Temple Trial—guaranteed to succeed within five attempts.
