Chapter 526: Heavenly Artifact-Ten Thousand Demons Tower
When the sky is slightly light.
The crane flew up from Shuiyue Peak, carrying Zhou Qing and Luo Liuli.
"After you pass the test, I will go to Zhuge, the deputy master, and ask him to determine your true biography assessment as soon as possible."
Luo Liuli's expression was as cold as ever, but he said But what he said was all for Zhou Qing's sake.
Zhou Qing asked: "Will it take a long time to confirm the true test?"
"It will be decided in a month at the latest, but it is also possible that if you pass the test today, the true test will be lowered tomorrow."
Luo Liuli explained: "It all depends on the considerations and whether there is something suitable."
"But I think you are not willing to wait a month."
Zhou Qingdian He nodded, of course he didn't want to.
A month may not seem like much to someone who has lived in Xuanduguan for more than ten years, but to him it is already a long time.
Luo Liuli didn't say what Zhou Qing would do if he failed the test.
If you fail, then you can take the test again next month. What else can you do?
She doesn't care about this anyway. It's no problem for her to take a day out.
Of course, Luo Liuli still hopes that Zhou Qing can pass all the hurdles smoothly.
When we arrived outside Wangchen Hall, there were already many disciples waiting here.
Only ten people from each of the thirty-six inner peaks came to participate, so there were 360 people, not to mention the disciples who came out of the famous peaks.
At first glance, it is crowded.
Seeing the arrival of the crane, everyone's eyes couldn't help but be attracted.
In the Xuanfa Mountains, being able to ride on a crane is a symbol of status.
At the very least, only true disciples, elders, and some special departments, such as disciples of the Tianlu Temple of Xuandu Temple's law enforcement department, would have such treatment.
Tianlu Hall is the place of criminal law and rules, which represents the internal system of Xuandu Temple. The disciples inside enjoy some special treatment, which is very true.
Besides, the Xuanfa Mountains are so big, it would be too much of a waste of time if the disciples of Tianlu Palace were really allowed to walk and enforce the law.
“Alchemy Lord!”
Someone exclaimed and recognized Luo Liuli, and then everyone outside Wangchen Hall was shocked. There was only one Dan Lord in the entire Xuandu Temple. After all, the people present have a high status in the inner sect, so they have heard more or less relevant news.
Luo Liuli's cultivation level is definitely not among the top in Xuandu Temple, but his alchemy skills are undoubtedly among the best and his reputation is extremely high.
For many disciples, the attraction of an alchemy master is even greater than that of a supreme master.
When many inner disciples dream in the middle of the night, they also imagine that opportunities will come from the sky, and then they change their fate against the will of heaven.
Elixir is undoubtedly the most imaginative thing. After all, this thing is to be eaten and directly change oneself. Unlike most weapons and formations, it is an external thing.
No one can refuse some magical elixir that can transform themselves.
Now a top alchemist appeared in front of him, which was shocking.
Most people present have never seen a person of this level and have only heard of his name.
Seeing Luo Liuli, most people directly thought of the several magical pills she created, which were all things that could change their destiny...
At this time, Zhou Qing followed The crane jumped down, and Luo Liuli said to him:
"Just do your best, don't worry about other things, I will always watch."
After getting Zhou Qing's response, Luo Liuli went directly into the Wangchen Palace. It was impossible for her to wait outside.
After Luo Liuli disappeared, Zhou Qing became the focus of everyone's attention. Facing these looks, Zhou Qing accepted them calmly.
Look at the handsome guy, he can understand.
"Who is this person? Is he also here to take part in the qualification test for true inheritance? It was Lord Dan who sent him off in person!"
"It's very strange, I have never seen him before."
Many people are curious about Zhou Qing, but his face is indeed a bit unfamiliar to people in the Xuanfa Mountains.
But there are also a few disciples with good backgrounds or extremely well-connected people who think of a piece of news they got two days ago.
Shuiyue Peak has an additional disciple. Lu Zhenzhuan from Jingyan Peak personally takes him to visit the Xuanfa Mountains...
I am afraid it is this person, right?
Zhou Qing was also observing the people present, his eyes passing by. He felt that most of the people were relatively ordinary, and only a few looked extraordinary.
The kind of extraordinary person who is the best among dwarves.
But unfortunately, he didn’t know anyone present.
Compared with the people here, he is the airborne type.
If he follows the normal process, someone will definitely collect information for him on the more outstanding disciples in the inner sect of Xuandu who may compete with him, so that he can know himself and the enemy.
But there are two or three big cats and kittens in Shuiyue Peak, and the only one who can show up now is Luo Liuli.
With Luo Liuli's temperament, it is indeed unlikely that he would take the initiative to collect such information.
The most important thing is that she understands Zhou Qing. Although this understanding comes from Lu Qingmo's words, it does not prevent her from having confidence in Zhou Qing.
Collecting intelligence on other people?
This is not necessary.
My junior sister can still lie to me.
At this time, a thin, dark-skinned young man next to Zhou Qing, who seemed to have been affected by some acquired environment, said hello to Zhou Qing.
"I, Li Wen, was born in the Li family of Beihan County. Now I am practicing at the Third Peak. What should I call this brother?"
"Zhou Qing."
When replying, Zhou Qing quickly recalled the map he had seen. Beihan County is a county in Hanzhou. This is a local.
Zhou Qing had an impression of Beihan County, and Qin Ming mentioned it.
This county is close to the grassland and is rich in mineral resources. It is considered a relatively important resource area. It is often targeted by the grassland barbarians, and small-scale human-barbarian battles often break out.
However, Qin Ming has not talked to Zhou Qing about the forces within Beihan County.
Just watching Li Wenhui announce his family status, the Li family should have considerable power and reputation in Beihan County.
My background is too low and there is no need to report it. No one has ever heard of it.
“I have never seen Brother Zhou in Xuandu Temple before. Is Brother Zhou a newbie?”
"Yes, I have just started practicing for two days, and now I am practicing at Shuiyue Peak."
The voices of the two people were neither low nor high, but the people present were not weak in cultivation and could be heard clearly.
This kind of information is not something that needs to be concealed, so Zhou Qing has no taboos.
Hearing this, Li Wen looked envious and said:
"Brother Zhou must be extremely talented. Shuiyue Peak is the divine peak in the sect, and countless people aspire to it. Brother Zhou worships Lord Luo Dan as his Master? ”
"It's just a matter of luck." Zhou Qing said modestly.
“As for becoming a disciple, I don’t have that blessing.”
“Brother Zhou must be a talented person who devotes himself to hard training and specializes in fighting. I’m afraid it will be difficult for him to test his qualifications this time. I won’t fail Brother Zhou.”
Zhou Qing smiled, “I’m just here to try my luck.”
Other people who listened with their ears pricked up were cursing in their hearts.
This disciple of Shuiyue Peak is really a thief. He has not disclosed any useful information after all his talk.
The one on the left is just lucky, the one on the right is trying his luck.
Nothing was said about his origins or anything like that.
As for the fact that Zhou Qing did not take Luo Liuli as his disciple, it is not really useful information at all.
No matter how talented he is, he will not be accepted as a disciple by Lord Alchemy without practicing alchemy. It is easy to find out whether Zhou Qing worships Luo Liuli as his disciple.
Some people looked at Zhou Qing and felt that this guy was just showing off, but no one used words to ridicule or embarrass him.
Luo Liuli is in Wangchen Hall, no matter how stupid a person is, he will not say anything at this time.
At this time, Ermu, the master of Wangchen Hall, walked out. As soon as he appeared, the scene suddenly became quiet. No one said anything, and it was still.
Ermu glanced at everyone and announced with an indifferent expression:
“This true qualification test is for the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons.”
As soon as these words came out, many people's expressions changed drastically, becoming extremely solemn and... fearful.
Zhou Qing's expression remained as usual, but he was also thinking about the word "Ten Thousand Demons Tower" in his heart.
What this thing is, he already knows after two days of extra lessons from Lu Yuanyuan.
Lu Yuanyuan specifically mentioned to Zhou Qing that the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons was among the many contents of the qualification test.
The Ten Thousand Demons Tower itself is a heavenly artifact, which is also an artifact refined by monks in the Biluo Realm, and it is also a top-quality heavenly artifact.
The artifacts have spirits, and the spirit of the top-grade artifacts is even more powerful, almost comparable to that of a normal human child.
As for the test of the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, of course it is not for the inner disciples to fight against this heavenly artifact.
Even if there is no one controlling them, the power of the divine weapon can shake them down to nothing even if they are shaken off on their own.
The Ten Thousand Demons Tower has nine floors, and countless monsters are imprisoned inside. Those monsters are the test for the inner disciples.
Lu Yuanyuan and Zhou Qing said that among the many tests that do not necessarily qualify, the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons is also one of the most difficult.
The monsters suppressed in the tower are very difficult to deal with. They are monsters, not demons like those from the Heavenly Mother Sect and the Hall of Impermanence who have practiced magic.
Monsters are a race other than the human race, with all kinds of strange shapes.
They are violent, bloodthirsty, cruel, chaotic, crazy...
All negative things seem to be reflected in them and can be found.
But monsters are indeed an intelligent race, but most of the time they are dominated by negative emotions, so they appear to be unintelligent.
Even though Lu Yuanyuan had heard about Zhou Qing's strength, she still told Zhou Qing to be careful when talking about the Ten Thousand Demons Tower.
The monster is weird and bloodthirsty, and may have some special abilities. Zhou Qing has never been exposed to it before, so he may be caught off guard.
Zhou Qing has indeed never been exposed to this thing, and has never even heard of it before.
He also asked Lu Yuanyuan where Xuanduguan caught this monster and where is the area where the monster is active?
But Lu Yuanyuan couldn't give him an answer.
According to what Lu Yuanyuan said, she had been to several states in Daqi and had contact with some top Taoist disciples, but she had never heard of the existence of such monsters, nor had she heard of those top Taoist disciples. There is such a thing.
It seems like this is a specialty of Xuanduguan.
No one in the outside world is curious about monsters, but Xuandu Guan has never responded. Due to the strength of Xuandu Guan, no one dares to ask.
However, this really aroused Zhou Qing’s curiosity.
I never thought that I would be able to see this Xuandu specialty now.
What Zhou Qing can know, other inner disciples naturally also know, and it is obviously dangerous.
But no one said anything. This was something Ermu had already announced. It was impossible for them to question it, let alone refute it.
Ermu waved his hand, and powerful power poured out, covering them all.
Everyone felt that their eyes were darkened and they lost all perception of the outside world.
But no one panicked and everyone understood what was happening.
After they regained their senses, the surrounding scenery had changed. It was no longer the Wangchen Palace, but a deserted and empty valley.
This place is bare, the ground is all sand and gravel, and there is no vegetation on the mountain peaks in the distance. It is a desolate scene without any life.
In the center of the valley, there is a huge black nine-story tower that looks like a mountain.
A group of inner disciples were brought here by Ermu, which is the place of testing, the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons.
This place is deep in the Xuanfa Mountains, deeper than where the Deputy Temple Master is. Under normal circumstances, not to mention the inner disciples, even the true disciples cannot come here if they have nothing to do.
The black tower of the Ten Thousand Demons Tower has lines one after another, which are mysterious but messy. If you stare at them for a long time, you will feel dizzy, nauseated and chest tight.
This nine-story black tower does not have a portal. It is an artifact, not a real building.
Which monk would add a door to his pagoda when refining a tower-shaped magic weapon?
“All disciples, put your hands on the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons.”
Ermu's voice sounded again, and then everyone walked towards the Ten Thousand Demons Tower and acted according to Ermu's words.
Zhou Qing was naturally among them. After placing his hand on the tower, the black tower in front of him, which looked like cast iron, began to ripple like water waves, and then the area seemed to disappear.
“Enter the tower!”
Ermu spoke again.
Many disciples stepped forward at the same time and passed directly through the Ten Thousand Demons Tower. After a few breaths, the outside of the Ten Thousand Demons Tower was empty, and there was no longer any disciple.
What appeared in front of Zhou Qing's eyes was a dark space. The light only existed within about half a meter of him, and further away was a deep darkness. It was as if a monster was watching you in the darkness, ready to launch a fatal attack at any time. And, devour you.
The ground is black, and it is a metal floor made of unknown material.
"Next, monsters will continue to appear in front of you and attack you."
Ermu's voice came from nowhere.
"The only thing you need to do is to kill every monster that appears in front of you. Don't hold back. Monsters are not testers, but killers!"
"When you pass the test, the monster will recede."
"I am not the only one watching this test. We will rescue the disciple who is in desperate situation, and at the same time declare his failure."
“But you must pay attention, we can guarantee your life safety, but this does not mean that you will not encounter any danger. The monsters are ferocious and strange, and some methods may cause you to suffer irreparable harm. "
"So, recognize your own strength, and when you reach your limit, apply for withdrawal in time and don't take risks. Or you can apply at this time. Once you are unable to meet your needs in the later test, you need to Rescue immediately, so we can make sure you are fine!"
"One last time, all monsters are enemies and the most bloodthirsty killers, don't show mercy to them!"
This is why the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons is one of the most difficult tests.
Facing monsters, with Ermu and other secretly observing examiners, you will definitely not die, but you will inevitably suffer some injuries.
This is another intelligent race, not a puppet controlled by Xuandu Guan. Fighting against them is full of unpredictable surprises.
They will not be like puppets, they will stay away after finding out that you are not good enough. Instead, they will become more ferocious and want your life.
Monsters are mysterious and strange things. If you are hurt by them, there may be some bad consequences.
Such as mental trauma, such as mutilated limbs, such as strange poison...
It's not that Ermu and the others are unable to save everyone intact, they can just save a disciple after he falls into a disadvantage. .
But after being rescued, it means that the test has failed.
For these disciples, I just fell into a disadvantage and directly failed the test?
This is hard to accept.
I just fell into a disadvantage. I still have the means to kill, or my long-term fighting ability is very strong, or I am the kind of practitioner who gets stronger the more the headwind goes against me, or I may not be able to rely on my will to persevere and kill the opponent. ...
All kinds of ideas are too common, but there are many such examples.
Some practitioners do not know how to play without facing the wind, or they practice some special skills and become more brave after being injured.
Since this is a test, it is natural to give the disciples a chance to fully demonstrate themselves so that they can give full play, so Ermu and the others will only take action when they judge that the disciple is destined to die.
As for the injury... I have already warned him in advance, and also said that I can apply for more timely rescue in advance. no way.
Zhou Qing remained silent. He didn't know other people's choices, but he didn't apply for more timely rescue.
Although timely rescue is good, it will make it more difficult to pass the test in disguise.
Such an attitude will lower your rating.
High in the sky outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, there are several masters standing in the sky, and Luo Liuli is among them.
The people here are all masters of the Underworld Realm or the Pure Land Realm. Every qualification test is conducted by people of this level.
Their spirits can see the condition of each disciple through the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, and they can also hear several disciples applying for more timely rescue.
One of the old men shook his head, "Although living is the foundation of everything, their lives will not be in danger in this test, but they still made such a choice."
< br>"The choice this time will become their forever The hurdles that cannot be overcome will cause loopholes in their hearts."
Ermu replied without changing his expression: "This is the first test, and they failed."
" But fortunately, these are only a handful.”
Another young man said:
"Master of the Palace, let's start."
Ermu nodded and glanced at Luo Liuli. Seeing her cold expression, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. stand up.
He actually came to stare at him.
No matter how stupid he is, he cannot break the rules of the qualification test in public.
It's like judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart!
Zhou Qing discovered that the space in front of him suddenly changed. The darkness receded like a tide, and light emerged.
"Roar!"
A roar followed, and then a monster came from nowhere and ran towards him.
The monster's hands and feet were on the ground at the same time. There were spikes on its back, and sharp bones on the joints of its hands and feet. It had no fingers, only sharp claws.
There is only one eye on the head, and there are fangs sticking out of the mouth. Although it is human-shaped, it does not look like a human being. The skin is blue-black all over, and the muscles are swollen.
The monster's one eye shone with cruelty and bloodthirsty light.
Is this a monster?
Zhou Qing frowned slightly. This monster was different from all the creatures he had seen before.
This difference does not lie in appearance, but in Qi.
The monster's energy gave him a feeling that was very different from other creatures and incompatible with the nature of heaven and earth.
It is as conspicuous as the rotten egg in a pile of eggs.
Even though he was so kind and tolerant, he felt a sense of disgust after seeing this monster.
This is definitely not because the other person is ugly.
The monster was very fast, approaching Zhou Qing in a matter of breaths, and its sharp claws stretched directly towards Zhou Qing's throat, trying to cut it open.
"Chi!"
The sword light flashed, and the sword energy broke through the air. Zhou Qing directly cut off the sharp claws of the monster in front of him, then raised his sword and slashed horizontally, and the monster's body directly turned into two halves.
Although you are ugly and have unique characteristics, you are just a little brat after all.
