Chapter 1054: 480: Zhi Ning and her child’s Destiny! Heavenly Eye Judgment!_2

...

Seeing all the terrifying things in his dream, he felt an immense sense of urgency.

He must conquer the Chimera Tribe, at any cost, by any means, he must conquer the Chimera Tribe.

"Mulong, there are hundreds of Barbarian Prisoners in the entire prison, and at most only ten can join the Foreign Tribe Army of the Chimera. What about the rest?" Lanling asked.

"All executed!" Mulong said.

Lanling said: "Then how can one join the Foreign Tribe Army of the Chimera? Through combat?"

"No." Mulong said: "Is it based on the Heavenly Eye Judgment of the Shaman?"

"Heavenly Eye Judgment?" Lanling wondered.

"Yes, Heavenly Eye Judgment." Mulong said: "Once you pass the Heavenly Eye Judgment, you can successfully join the Chimera Tribe and receive protection. And if you fail the judgment, you’re thrown into the lava and burned alive."

Lanling said: "When they are thrown into the lava, does nobody resist?"

Mulong said: "Resistance is useless, at that moment in the pit, they are surrounded by thousands of Chimera Samurai. Moreover, the Shaman of the Chimera is very powerful."

Lanling asked: "When does the Heavenly Eye Judgment take place?"

"Tomorrow." Mulong said.

Lanling said: "What are the criteria for the Heavenly Eye Judgment, on what basis do the Shamans of the Chimera Tribe decide who stays and who gets burned to death?"

"Don’t know, no one knows." Mulong said.

Lanling said: "Does strength, talent give you an advantage in the Heavenly Eye Judgment?"

Mulong shook his head: "No, every Heavenly Eye Judgment, those who are strongest often get thrown into the lava and burned to death."

For a moment, Lanling’s heart was unsettled.

What he feared most about anything was the lack of a standard.

This superstitious Heavenly Eye Judgment became a tiger blocking his path.

To return to the Human Kingdom sooner, he had to continually grow stronger, stronger, stronger!

Only by uniting the Barbaric Wilderness Continent to become the king of myriad tribes, would there be a chance to lead the mighty Demon Army to sweep across the Human Kingdom and destroy the power of the Dragon Temple.

Conquering the Chimera Tribe is the most important step.

Successfully joining the Foreign Tribe Army of the Chimera Tribe, this is the threshold for all plans.

He must succeed, no matter what, he cannot fail!

"Lord Lanling, may the heavens bless you to successfully pass the Heavenly Eye Judgment tomorrow." Mulong performed an incomprehensible ritual to Lanling.

Lanling muttered to himself: "I hope I can successfully pass the Heavenly Eye Judgment!"

...

The next morning arrived!

Inside the dungeon of the cave, all was quiet!

Even the most ferocious werewolves stopped tormenting the Near-Human Tribe.

All the cells appeared orderly, as if the atrocities that had occurred here before were nothing but nightmares.

However, the piles of corpses in the corners of the cells, along with some leftover bones, unmistakably revealed that this was the most evil place in the world.

All those who were consumed were from the dead Near-Human Tribe!

Because they resembled humans too closely, this was their original sin, and they must suffer the torment of other tribes.

Those who could not endure this torment and died became meals for the werewolves.

Why has this hell regained its normal order today? Why the silence?

Why have the werewolves stopped their slaughter?

For one reason only, the Heavenly Eye Judgment!

The fate of all Barbarians is about to be decided!

Every Barbarian confined to this dungeon is at their wit’s end, choosing this path that leads to a one in ten chance of survival.

They were either from a destroyed tribe with no home to return to, or they had been exiled.

The Heavenly Eye Judgment today will determine their fate.

Those who pass the Heavenly Eye Judgment will stay and receive the protection of the Chimera Tribe.

But those who fail, will be burned alive!

When destiny looms, even the ferocious and brutal werewolves seem somber.

Everyone sat quietly on the ground, praying, pleading with the heavens to let them pass the Heavenly Eye Judgment.

Perhaps, this is what they call a desperate last-minute prayer.

Lanling also felt the nearly solidifying atmosphere, but he did not pray.

Because he didn’t know to whom he should pray—to the Dragon? To the devil? To the heavens?

No, it’s better to pray to oneself!

Destiny had almost destroyed everything he had.

...

It was around nine o’clock in the morning.

All the prison cells were opened, and hundreds of Barbarians began to line up neatly, walking out of the cave under the supervision of Chimera Samurai, leaving the mountain where the tribe was located and heading north.

The Heavenly Eye Judgment was held in a volcanic crater to the north!

And this volcano, the sacred mountain of the Chimera Tribe, was named Mount Chimera.

Below the crater, there was a sea of magma, which was always churning but never erupting.

Several hundred Chimera Samurai escorted several hundred Barbarian Prisoners to the summit of the thousand-meter-high Mount Chimera.

This group of Chimera Samurai was the legendary Foreign Tribe Army, comprised of all kinds of different races.

And there were roughly just one from the Near-Human Tribe!

In fact, Lanling couldn’t even tell if she was from the Near-Human Tribe—her skin was very dark, just like the Africans on Earth.

Her face was not considered beautiful, but her figure was extremely voluptuous, even more so than those African women on Earth. Especially her two super long legs and her astonishingly round and perky buttocks, her entire body was filled with strength.

Moreover, she seemed to be one of the leaders of the Foreign Tribe Army!

She was entirely indistinguishable from humans, except for one detail—she had a tail.

Several hundred from the Foreign Tribe Army, escorted several hundred Barbarian Prisoners to the top of the volcano!

Then, the Foreign Tribe Army took up high ground, guarding every strategic position.

The entire volcanic crater was about several hundred square meters in area, underneath which the magma flowed endlessly, capable of devouring any life.

Above the crater, a stone platform stretched out, about more than ten meters long and just over a meter wide!

An odd-looking Shaman with a staff stood at the end of the stone platform.

Lanling found that this Shaman was not of the Chimera race, and he could not discern what race he was—it was as if he was some kind of monster.

He was merely about one meter tall, covered in long white hair, with virtually no visible features other than his eyes.

Seeing him, Suo Lun couldn’t help but think of the wise Master Yoda, leader of the Jedi Knights from "Star Wars," who was also very short.

Only, this Shaman enveloped in white fur appeared particularly strange.

And this monster-like Shaman would decide the fate of everyone present, including Lanling.

"Begin!" With the command from the leader of the Chimera Tribe’s Foreign Tribe Army, the Heavenly Eye Judgment officially commenced!

The first Barbarian Prisoner walked the stretch of the platform, arriving before the Shaman, knelt on one knee, and awaited his Heavenly Eye Judgment.

To pass, meant to join the Chimera Tribe successfully.

To fail, meant to be burned alive!

Note: The second update is here, begging for support, thank you all!

I couldn’t sleep all last night, and now I’m struggling a bit, so this Chapter is a bit shorter.
