On the passageway.

Grey was still walking further into the cave. It was starting to get harder for him to continue.

The bunny leader was panting heavily, finding it hard to keep its body upright. From the start, it was standing on its hind legs, but now, it was on all four as it was finding it hard.

Grey thought the pressure on him increased because he was carrying the bunny leader and Void, but when he dropped them, he found out that it was the same.

After Void's plea, he carried him. The bunny leader couldn't help but beg as well.

Grey's current figure from a distance was like one of someone with three heads, just that the other two are way smaller than the middle one, and they had different shapes.

He couldn't be bothered with all these. At the moment, he had walked over a thousand meters. His speed was by no means slow, but with every two hundred meters crossed, the pressure would almost double.

He couldn't see Alice anymore, unsure if there was something impeding it. Normally, he should be able to see her since the path was a straight line. But contrary to his thoughts, it wasn't so.

"Do you think we can reach the end?" Void asked, panting. His tongue was out as he struggled to breathe.

"I can't tell. Another five hundred meters, and I'll be at my limit." Grey responded with difficulty. His carefree attitude was long gone.

'You should sit and strengthen your body, and then continue.' The bunny leader suggested.

Grey thought about it and sat down cross-legged, he soon started to feel his body growing stronger.

He broke through to the Elemental Venerable stage and acquired the abilities of an ice dragon. His body also grew stronger. Presently, the explosive force of his body was stronger than his elemental attack. Only the chaos orb is stronger than his attack

His body greedily used the pressure from the cave to temper itself, growing stronger as time went on.

Grey enjoyed the feeling of his body getting stronger as he sat that. Before he knew it, three hours passed with his eyes still closed, fully in a cultivation state.

One more hour went by and he opened his eyes, excitement flashing through them.

"Hahaha." He laughed and jumped back up, he threw his fist forward, and an explosion rang out in the cave.

The strength of his physical body had climbed to the Mid stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane. It was originally in the Early stages, but now, it was close to the peak of the Mid stages.

The bunny leader and Void were startled, both falling from Grey's shoulder.

The bunny leader was cultivating, like Grey, it was lost in the feeling of strengthening its body. Void, on the other hand, was sleeping.

Void flipped mid-air and landed on his legs. The bunny leader was not as agile as Void, but it managed to make sure it didn't land on its head. Its butt slammed into the ground and it groaned in discomfort. Looking at Grey who was smiling foolishly, it couldn't help but snort coldly.

It was the one who told Grey to cultivate his body, yet, this was how Grey paid him back.

Grey scratched the tip of his nose, a little embarrassed. Void jumped and landed on his shoulder, but the bunny leader opted to walk on its own now.

Void was used to always being on Grey's shoulder whenever they were walking, and it was tiring to have to walk on his own.

The pressure lessened after their round of cultivation.

They walked another five hundred meters and could barely move their bodies.

Grey tried cultivating, but he realized that it was useless. His body couldn't advance any further for now.

He was about to give up when he caught sight of a light from the other side of the tunnel.

"The end of the tunnel." He pointed at the light, diverting the attention of the two Magical Beasts to it.

One has to know that they were under more pressure compared to Grey. Grey only had to focus on the pressure of his physical body, while the two Magical Beasts also had to face the pressure of their elemental essence.

Seeing the light, they were rejuvenated and walked faster, trying to reach the end as soon as they could.

Grey also walked faster. He wanted to run, but his body couldn't take that much. He also tried to use the space element, but it was useless since he couldn't open the space here.

They walked to the end, the bright light almost blinding them. Their visions returned to normal after some time, a pavilion appearing before them.

"A place to rest?" Void asked.

"Not likely. There should be a reward." Grey looked around.

The bunny leader also looked around, a little expectant on what they would gain from this. If anyone appeared now and told them that the increase in their physical bodies was the reward, they might beat up the person.

Although they were all happy with the increase in their strength, they still wanted to get more rewards.

Not seeing anything outside, Grey knew it was time to walk inside the pavilion and inspect it.

As they walked closer to the pavilion, the motionless figure inside the pavilion, who hadn't been moving all this while, opened his eyes.

The figure was that of a young man who looked to be in his early twenties. The figure walked closer to the armor, caressing it, his eyes showed an expression of pain. Before long, he turned to the door.

Grey and Void walked in at this moment.

"Oh." A surprised exclamation escaped from the mouth of the young man. He didn't expect a human and two Magical Beasts to be the ones to pass through the trial.

One has to know that even Dragons had failed the test, yet, a bunny and a cat even passed it.

"What has the world turned into?" The young man muttered.
