Chapter 525 Three Trials
Outside Changliu Mountain, it can be said to be a sea of people.
Although they are recruiting new people in advance, it has already reached the point where everyone knows it, whether in the mortal world or the fairy world.
So much so that the East China Sea area was full of people and lively.
The great sects of the immortal world in this world will have their residences in the mortal world to entertain many people who come to become their disciples.
Changliu is located in the East China Sea area. There is a Changliu Inn that can accommodate 800 people. However, it is on a first-come, first-served basis. Because of this, the Changliu Inn is far from enough to accommodate many people who want to come and become a disciple.
Gradually a big city was built not far from the East China Sea.
At this time, in the huge Changliu Inn in the city, a platform was cast with a mustard seed technique, and it accommodated seven or eight thousand people, all of whom were young people no more than twenty years old.
A gentle and virtuous woman with a beautiful face looked around and couldn't help but sigh:
"Oh my God, I didn't expect so many people to come to be my disciples!"
A woman in colorful clothes, extremely gorgeous, who inadvertently exuded a wanton and flamboyant temperament, said nonchalantly:
"What's this? Changliu is the largest sect in the immortal world. I heard from my father that if Changliu hadn't been in such a hurry to recruit new members this time, in just three months, there would have been as few as one hundred thousand people and as many as 100,000 disciples in the past. Hundreds of thousands of people.”
Not far away from the two women, Hua Qiangu was unusually low-key among the crowd. She glanced at them silently and said to herself:
"Qing Shui and Ni Mantian really didn't get along from the beginning, and that's what they thought. Ni Mantian is the daughter of the head of Penglai. She is of noble birth, talented, hard-working, proficient in poetry, painting, music, and has the appearance of a fish sinking and a bird falling. She has a high heart and a high spirit. The character of an arrogant and unpleasant rich daughter.”
"Qingshui is the complete opposite. One is like fire and the other is like water. It's normal that they can't stand each other."
Thinking of this, she glanced at her many friends from the same family in her previous life. A trace of nostalgia could not help but appear deep in her eyes, and she muttered silently:
"The fragment of Yanshui Jade transformed into a human being, Shuo Feng, has always been the playful Wu Qingluo and Huo Xi. In this life, I will not become a disciple, and no matter how determined I will not stay for a long time, I will stay peacefully in the mountains to cultivate. It will recreate the scene of the past.”
Suddenly, on a high platform, a very capable man with hair as black as ink, eyes as clear as pills, and a hint of elegance of a scholar in his maturity, appeared in front of a sea of people with a dozen long-term disciples. .
"Thank you all for coming from afar. My name is Luo Shiyi. I will preside over this assessment. Now I will briefly talk about the content of the assessment."
Luo Shiyi continued calmly:
"The assessment is divided into three levels. The first level is very simple. As long as you successfully leave the boundary of the Demon Forest before noon tomorrow, you will pass. But remember, there are many flowers that can eat people in the forest. This level is life-threatening. The strength If it is not enough, it is best to withdraw from the trial.”
"At the same time, before the trial, we will give everyone a magical silver water bead. When you encounter danger and are ready to give up the game, you can crush it as soon as possible and leave the Monster Forest smoothly. Come back here."
"For the sake of fairness, all the magical weapons and treasures on everyone's possessions will be taken back together, but uniform weapons will be issued to you. Once night comes, you will not be in any danger and you can have a good rest."
"The first level will begin in an hour, so you can get ready."
As soon as these words came out, many people began to whisper among themselves.
But Hua Qiangu knew that the first level seemed to be simply passing through the monster forest, and there were silver water beads to avoid life and death crises.
But the Silver Water Bead looks like a life-saving treasure, but in fact it is an object that makes the people in the trial kill each other.
After all, there are only about ten places to be admitted to the permanent residence. The more people you eliminate, the greater the chance that you will be admitted to the permanent residence.
Moreover, the first level is a test of courage, strength and flexibility on the surface, but the real test behind the scenes is concentration.
Once night falls, all the people who are undergoing the trial will be pulled into the illusion, and then there will be an obsession that they can't let go of.
The second level tests whether you have perseverance and courage. The path of spiritual practice is like walking on the edge of an abyss. Therefore, you have to cross the iron chain across the cliff while avoiding the oncoming darts.
The bottom line is that the first two levels are nothing more than appetizers compared to the final level.
The third level is to come to Changliu Mountain and cross the Sansheng Pond. This is both a test and an important ritual for becoming a Changliu disciple. It can remove the filth and miasma from the mortal body, and the five senses will become clear and have the talent for improvement. Increase the effectiveness of practice.
The so-called Sansheng Pool water is a mixture of water flowing from the three palaces on the three immortal islands to Changliu Mountain.
The water of the Hall of Greed washes away greed, the water of the Hall of Ecstasy removes desire, and the water of the Hall of Unfeeling eliminates infatuation. If you cannot abandon the three in your heart, the light one will be miserable, and the worst case will endanger your life.
You only need to walk barefoot along the outer edge of Sansheng Pond to pass.
Hua Qiangu was thinking about the next entrance trial, and under her calm expression, she looked sure.
As a demon god who once had the power to destroy the heaven and the earth, the ancient power in her body was accumulated over hundreds of millions of years from all the evil, filth, and obsessions in the world. Even so, her heart has never been stained with dust. How can you arouse your own greed, anger and ignorance?
What she is more worried about now is the sugar baby she left in the Jueqing Palace. Although she has repeatedly warned her that she has no father, she always seems to ignore her.
Now, because she knew that no magical weapons or spiritual insects were allowed in the entry trial, she was left in the Jueqing Palace, but she was always worried that she might not be looking for someone.
I couldn’t even imagine the scene where a sugar baby calls someone daddy again, and couldn’t stop saying in my heart:
"If I had known better, I would have brought the sugar baby here, otherwise I wouldn't be so anxious."
But she looked at Luo Shiyi on the high platform, couldn't help but shook her head, and thought to herself:
"No, it's better to stay in Jueqing Palace."
After five days, 60% of the people were eliminated in the first trial, leaving more than 3,000 people. In the second stage, more than half were eliminated, leaving only more than 900 people.
Then, under the leadership of Luo Shiyi and other Changliu disciples, they passed through the boundary between the immortal and mortal realms, entered Changliu Mountain, and came to the third trial site, beside the Sansheng Pond.
As more than 900 people walked into the pool barefoot, 99% of the people would scream in agony soon.
More than half an hour later, besides the many Changliu disciples, there were only eleven people left by the Sansheng Pond who had successfully passed the third level of the trial.
At this time, Luo Shiyi said with a smile on his face:
"Congratulations to all of you, you have officially become Changliu disciples."
As soon as he finished speaking, most of the people began to cheer. Among them, Hua Qiangu looked at the scene in front of him, and his little face also showed a happy look.
Qing Shui couldn't hide his excitement. He ran over and grabbed Hua Qiangu, saying excitedly:
"Qiangu, it's great that we all worship in Changliu."
Hua Qiangu smiled and replied:
"Yes, from now on we are all members of the Changryu clan."
In the past five days, even though she had maintained a low-key style of being silent and stoic, she still made good friends with Qing Shui.
