I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 1343 – The Conclusion of the Rescue Trial

“Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three…”

The living Golden Void Lightning’s voice began a countdown.

An Lin had the body of a mortal and couldn’t do anything aside from choosing a hole on the stone slab before him.

That’s right, he had to make a choice.

This was not an inherently difficult choice, it was only the connotation behind this choice that was holding him back.

“Two, one…”

An Lin gritted his teeth and let loose a low roar as he placed the blue bead into the hole on the left.

He chose to rescue the six thousand people!

Boom!

The floating stone carrying the four thousand people shattered.

Four thousand people let loose wails of anguish before being torn to shreds by the sharp sabers below.

An Lin’s body trembled with rage upon seeing this. At the same time, his heart was filled with guilt and remorse

The stone carrying six thousand people was finally able to keep floating in the air after receiving a replenishment in energy.

However, the six thousand survivors were still gripped by horror.

All of them wept with despair and powerlessness.

Of course, there were some brave people who stood up and called for everyone to come together and find a way to get out of this place.

However, An Lin knew that they would not be able to go anywhere without the Golden Void Lightning’s approval.

“I’ve already made my decision. Hurry up and get the other people out of here!” An Lin roared.

“There’s no hurry. The story is only just beginning…” the living Golden Void Lightning spoke in a faint voice.

Crack…

Another crisp crack sounded.

The massive, floating stone was suddenly split into two before separating.

The six thousand people were split up into left and right again.

There were four thousand people on one side and two thousand on the other.

An Lin seemed to realize what was about to happen next, and his eyes widened as his breathing accelerated. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails had dug through the skin on his palms, but he was completely unaware.

A primal, animalistic roar escaped his lips, “You… What are you going to do now?”

A poisonous mist suddenly descended from the sky.

Six thousand people collapsed to the ground in agony, wailing with anguish as they clutched at their necks.

“Ah… It’s so painful…”

“Save me! Please, anyone!”

“I’m going to die. I can feel my entire body being split apart and rotting away…”

Howls of agony reverberated throughout the space around them.

The Golden Void Lightning’s voice sounded again, “Now then, future savior of the world, you have another choice to make…

“All six thousand of these people have been poisoned and will die extremely painful deaths. You have one vial of antidote which can be shattered to save all of the humans on a floating stone…”

A vial of translucent, blue liquid appeared in the air as it spoke.

At the same time, another stone slab with two holes on it appeared before An Lin.

One left and one right…

It was quite clear that placing the vial into whichever hole would determine which group of humans were going to be saved.

An Lin completely exploded, and he drew his Evil-Slaying Sword as he frantically slashed down upon the stone slab.

“I’ll f*cking kill you!”

Bam bam bam…

The stone slab remained completely unscathed despite his sword strikes.

“Fifty seconds…”

A cold voice sounded in the murky space.

“Come fight me, you piece of sh*t! F*cking Golden Void Lightning, get the f*ck out here, I’ll kill you right now!” An Lin roared as he pointed at the murky space around him.

His words drew no response.

“Forty, thirty-nine…”

The countdown continued.

An Lin frantically hacked at the floating stone slab, at the vial, at the ground, all to no avail.

The anguished wails of six thousand mortals echoed through the space around him.

In the end, time was almost up.

An Lin made his choice and rescued the four thousand people.

He couldn’t just watch everyone die, so he could only choose to rescue the most number of people possible!

The antidote formed a mist, which cured the four thousand people of their poisoning.

The remaining two thousand people were poisoned to death…

An atmosphere of despair and horror had the remaining four thousand people on the verge of mental breakdown.

Right at this moment, the floating stone split open again…

This time, they were split up into a group of one thousand and a group of three thousand.

Silver pins began to rain down from the sky.

A huge umbrella appeared before An Lin, which could be used to shield one floating stone from the lethal silver pins.

This was actually a very easy choice as well, was it not?

Thus, he chose the three thousand people.

He couldn’t let the four thousand people die, and he couldn’t let the three thousand people die.

Logically speaking, it was the right decision to discard the minority and save the majority.

Three thousand humans were saved by An Lin.

The survivors felt like this was hell on earth. However, there were some optimists who thought that they would definitely be able to get out of this place if they could survive long enough!

The floating stone beneath their feet cracked open again.

An Lin silently raised his hand and continued his rescue trial.

“I’ll save the two thousand people.”

“I’ll save the one thousand five hundred people.”

“I’ll save the one thousand…”

He made one choice after another.

In the end, there was only an old lady and a little girl left on a floating stone.

The little girl was howling with tears while the old lady cradled the little girl as she tried to offer some comforting words.

“Waah… Grandma, I’m so scared, are we going to die?”

“Sigh… It’ll be alright. Close your eyes, and when you open them again, we’ll be home.”

An Lin looked at the remaining two people, and his hands trembled.

A scream suddenly erupted.

The little girl and the old woman were forced apart by a certain power.

Their floating rock was also split in half.

“Grandma! Grandma…” the little girl cried and panicked.

“Don’t be scared, Grandma’s here!” the old woman consoled in an urgent voice.

An Lin felt as if knives were raking through his heart.

“This is the final choice. You can rescue one person, who would then get to go back to their original world…” the living Golden Void Lightning suddenly spoke again.

An Lin shuddered upon hearing this as he looked at the little girl and the old woman.

Who should he save?

“One minute,” the Golden Void Lightning spoke.

An Lin pointed a trembling finger at the little girl. “I choose to save her.”

The old woman was nearing the end of her life, but the little girl had her whole life ahead of her.

Thus, the stone on which the old woman was on shattered, and she plummeted to her death onto the sabers below amid the little girl’s heartwrenching cries.

“Waah… Grandma, how am I supposed to live without you…” The little girl wiped at her tears, and at that moment, her eyes suddenly lost all of their lusters and emotions.

She made her way toward the edge of the floating stone she was on before looking down at the old woman below. A heartbreaking smile appeared on her face. “It’s alright, Grandma… I’ll come and find you…”

An Lin’s pupils contracted when he realized what she was about to do, and he let loose a desperate cry, “No!!!”

The little girl didn’t hear him.

She stepped off the edge of the floating stone and fell onto the sea of sabers below.

Blood splattered through the air as countless blades tore through her delicate body…

An Lin’s body trembled as he looked on with bloodshot eyes.

The Golden Void Lightning’s elated voice sounded again.

“Congratulations, you tried to save as many people as possible during all of your choices and have finally succeeded in killing everyone!”
