Chapter 1076 Prisoner of Crime
"Asura Palace?"
Ji Lai's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he secretly sent a message next to Liang Yan: "Asura Palace is in charge of punishment in Wushuang City. Some ruthless people, it is said that there is a Tongxuan In order to capture the monk who rebelled against the city, Zhenjun actually tracked him for eighty years, and finally found him in the desert in the far north of the Antarctic Fairy Continent and captured him alive."
"There is still such persistence. Someone?" Liang Yan was a little surprised.
"It's absolutely true. This matter is not a secret. According to my master, most of the monks in the Shura Palace in Wushuang City are unkind. You and I must be careful and don't let him find any reason to take us away. Eliminated," Ji Lai said secretly.
"I understand." Liang Yan nodded slightly and looked forward again.
I saw the True Lord Lingjiu bowing very politely at this time, and said: "Fellow Daoist Yue, I have completed my task. Now the fifty-eight candidates who have passed the first round of assessment have all Here, I’ll leave the rest to you.”
“Yes.” Yue Zhengyang nodded coldly.
Zhenjun Lingjiu seemed to be accustomed to this and was not angry. He just said goodbye, then spread his long legs and walked on the cliffs of the valley as if they were on the ground. In just half a cup of tea, he had already walked on the cliff. Leave in the valley.
"Are you this year's candidates?" Yue Zhengyang glanced at the crowd and slowly said: "Being able to pass the first round of tests shows that your personal magical powers are not bad. It's just that our Wushuang City In addition to testing personal strength, the entrance examination also tests the tacit understanding of cooperation with teammates, which I believe you all already know.”
"As expected!"
When Liang Yan and Li Xiran heard this, their faces showed "As expected!" It seemed that the information Ji came to find out before he came was correct. This second round of assessment was still It’s really a test of teamwork!
At this moment, I heard Yue Zhengyang continue to say: "I'm afraid a few people here know what I do. For this assessment, I specially brought thirty prisoners from the Wushuang City Sky Prison. , and your mission is to seize the customs clearance tokens from these prisoners."
As soon as he said this, many monks present immediately went into an uproar.
Many people showed expressions of disbelief, and some even shouted loudly: "Senior Yue, you can't talk nonsense about this matter. Which of the monks who can be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison of Wushuang City is not How can we defeat these ruthless people if we are only in the Golden Core realm?”
"Hmph, look at you like that, you are timid before you fight!"
Yue Zhengyang snorted coldly, and then slowly said: "Don't worry, these prisoners have been sealed, and they can be saved. Masters in the Golden Core Realm can only use the strength of the Golden Core Realm at this time."
"However, their abilities are limited. Your fighting skills and magical abilities are far superior to yours, so this battle is a test of your teamwork. As long as the three of you work together to grab the clearance token from one prisoner, the whole team will pass the assessment, and if you don't, you will be eliminated."
After he finished speaking, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
“It turns out that these prisoners have been sealed to a level of cultivation that is only equivalent to the level of the Golden Core Realm. In this way, it is not impossible to fight.”
Many people's hearts became active, and their confidence in this second round of assessment was obviously rekindled.
At this time, Yue Zhengyang pointed to the cliff again, and then said: "Did you see the entrances to those caves? There is a prisoner in each cave. You can choose a cave to enter later, and just take out Even if the token is passed, don’t say I’m unkind. Some of you have formed teams in advance, but your team members have not passed the first round of assessment. Yes, I allow you to form a new team, as long as the number of people in the team does not exceed three."
As soon as Yue Zhengyang said this, many people present began to communicate secretly, while Liang Yan said. Looking in the direction he pointed, I found that there were thirty caves of various sizes scattered on the cliffs to the east, obviously corresponding to thirty prisoners.
Liang Yan squinted his eyes and secretly activated the "Eight Divisions of Evolution" technique. The "Bodhi Mirror" had a keen insight into the subtleties. At this time, he explored the holes one by one, trying to find the one with the weakest breath. that.
As the saying goes, you have to pick the weak one. Although the prisoners here have all been sealed to the Golden Core Realm, their magical powers will still be different. If you can find the weakest one, you can make your own Assessment becomes simpler.
At this moment, among the more than fifty candidates present, many had the same idea as him. At this time, they spread their spiritual consciousness and wanted to choose the cave with the weakest aura.
Liang Yan's "Eight Parts of Evolution" is the highest secret technique of Buddhism, and "Bodhi Mirror" is even more insightful and one step ahead of others. With just a cup of tea, he has already mastered it. All thirty caves on the mountain cliffs were explored.
“The second one on the left, the fifth, seventh, and ninth one from the bottom right, the auras in these four caves are the weakest. It seems that even before the seal, they were only in the early stage of Tongxuan Realm. , even if the magical power exceeds that of ordinary Jindan realm monks, it is difficult to resist the three people joining forces under the seal at this time."
Liang Yan had already made a rough evaluation of the thirty prisoners and secretly selected them. The seventh cave from the bottom on the right was determined, where the weakest one was imprisoned.
He collected his skills, turned around, and was about to reveal the cave he had chosen, but unexpectedly, someone jumped in front of him and said:
"Two Taoist friends, I want to choose the fifth cave on the left. I wonder if you two can follow me?"
"Huh?"
Liang Yan was slightly surprised and looked towards He looked at the cliff and stone wall and frowned after a moment.
The cave that Ji Lai pointed to was the one that he could not see through the most.
For the remaining twenty-nine caves, some have very powerful auras. They were obviously powerful monks with advanced realms before being sealed. Some have mediocre auras. For example, the four caves that Liang Yan was interested in were found after being sealed. Before the seal, there was only the early stage of Tongxuan Realm.
But regardless of the strength of the breath, Liang Yan could still use the "Bodhi Mirror" to detect it. Only in this cave, from the beginning to now, not a single breath leaked out, as if there were no living things inside at all, so it was also The only cave he couldn't see through.
"Brother Ji, the cave you chose is a bit weird. I just used a secret method to explore it, and I can't tell the depth of the people in this cave." Liang Yan shook his head and said.
"Brother Liang, Fellow Daoist Li, there is no way around the plan. No matter what, we have to choose this cave to enter. Can you two make it happen?" Ji Lai said apologetically.
When Liang Yan heard what he said, his heart moved, and he suddenly heard a message and asked: "Brother Ji, is this the instruction of your master Shen Sanchi?"
"Not bad!"
Ji Lai nodded slightly and replied via voice: "The old man gave me three tips bags and asked me to open them one by one at the agreed time. The opening time of the first tip bag was for those who passed the selection and assessment of Wushuang City. After the first round of testing."
The plan is coming. Without hiding anything from him, he took out something from his sleeve and then said via voice transmission: "When I opened the first kit just now, I found that this was the only thing inside."
Liang Yan looked down and saw that In the palm of Jian Ji Lai's hand, there was a bamboo bird the size of a baby's palm.
This bamboo bird is blue all over, moves slowly, and looks a little dazed, but its two eyes are staring unblinkingly at the top of the mountain wall. Liang Yan followed the bamboo bird's gaze upwards and found that it was the fifth cave on the left, which was the one he couldn't see through the most.
"The bamboo bird leads the way. Did Shen Sanchi already know the content of this second round of assessment in advance? Do you even know the details of these prisoners?"
Liang Yan was surprised. Regarding Shen Sanchi, he Although they have never met before, there are traces of this person's layout in the previous Senluo Secret Realm. He is definitely a person who is good at calculations.
“It seems that you have to see this prisoner?”
“Sorry, although my old man is not serious, he is my master after all. Ji Lai has to go through the Dragon Pond and Tiger's Den. As for the two of you, if you really feel it's inappropriate, you don't have to go with Ji. You can also find someone else to form a team." Ji Lai said apologetically.
Liang Yan frowned after hearing this, and turned his attention to Li Xiran, but saw that the woman was also looking at him, with a look like "it's you who makes the decision."
"Although Shen Sanchi is cunning, he is his disciple after all. As a master, he will not cheat his own disciple."
Liang Yan thought for a moment in secret, and already made a decision in his heart. , it was obviously not a good thing to change people to form a team at this time, and besides, he was also a little curious about Shen Sanchi's arrangements.
"Brother Ji is joking. We are already members of the same team. No matter what test we face, we have to face it together. Since you have chosen this cave, why not let us go with you? Liang Yan said with a smile.
Ji Lai's face lit up when he heard this. He nodded to Liang Yan and Li Xiran and said nothing more.
Everyone watched under the cliff for a while, and then heard Yue Zhengyang's rich voice again: "Okay, the time has come, you can enter the cave now."
As soon as he finished speaking, figures of people flashed in the field. The Tong family, the Hao family, Cang Yueming, Mu Hanxue, and Yu Feihong all turned into afterimages and headed straight for the cave they had chosen. go.
Most of the thirty caves were picked by others in the blink of an eye. However, no one went to the cave chosen by calculation. Obviously, no one wanted to go to a place that they could not see through.
"Let's go too."
Liang Yan has made a decision and will not regret it again. At this time, he went directly to the fifth cave on the left hand side of the cliff. and Li Xiran followed closely behind.
The candidates who originally gathered in the valley all entered the cave in the blink of an eye. At this time, only Yue Zhengyang was left on the empty grassland.
He stood upright, with his hands behind his back, and his eyes swept over the cliffs one by one, and finally landed on the fifth cave on the left, which was the one chosen by Liang Yan and others.
"Someone really chose that place."
Yue Zhengyang frowned and murmured to himself: "What is the origin of that guy? Even I don't know why Senior Lin wants me. Bringing him out is a bit strange.”
His face changed. Maybe, he seemed to be recalling what happened before. After a long while, he sighed softly and said: "Well, that's it. I can only do my best to maintain the order of the assessment and hope nothing goes wrong." < br>
Liang Yan would naturally not hear Yue Zhengyang's soliloquy.
He has now entered the cave with Ji Lai and Li Xiran.
The space inside the cave was larger than they expected. There was a long passage inside that extended toward the interior. The depths of the passage are so gloomy and dark that it is impossible to detect them with spiritual consciousness. It looks like a sleeping beast, unconsciously opening its bloody mouth.
The three of them walked slowly along the passage. After walking for about a stick of incense, they saw a piece of lava appearing in front of them.
There are dozens of dark stone pillars standing in the magma. It is unknown what material these stone pillars are made of. There is no sign of melting even when soaked in the rolling lava.
Liang Yan looked intently and saw strange runes painted on each stone pillar, and a chain extended from the top of each stone pillar.
These chains finally gathered in the middle of the magma and were tied to a man's body.
The man was tall, with broad shoulders and a thin waist. His upper body was naked, and his lower body was soaked in magma. At this time, his head was half lowered, and his long hair was hanging down, covering his face.
"Is this person the prisoner we are facing? Why doesn't he look very powerful?"
Li Xiran looked at this person with doubtful eyes, and then pointed behind him A stone pillar, and then said: "That should be the test Is it the token that the official said?"
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough they found a pure golden box placed on the top of a stone pillar behind the man. They knew it without thinking at this time. , what’s in that box must be their customs clearance token this time.
"This person is not as simple as you think. He may have some way of hiding his aura, but don't be fooled by his appearance." Liang Yan said in a deep voice while staring at the man in the lava.
While they were talking, a deep voice suddenly sounded in the cave:
"Haha, are you the candidates of this class in Wushuang City? How dare you choose me? You have some courage!"
The voice was deep and hoarse, sounding like it had gone through all kinds of hardships and torture.
What is particularly strange is that this voice does not come from the mouth of the man in the magma at all, but echoes directly in the air, as if there is a third person here, hiding in the dark and talking to them .
As for the prisoner in the magma, his head was still half lowered at this moment, his long hair was hanging down, and his appearance could not be seen at all.
His two arms were hung high by dozens of iron chains, and his body was also penetrated by several iron chains. He didn't even have the slightest breath at the moment, and he looked like a dead person.
"Senior, the three of us have no intention of offending. Can you please hand over the customs clearance token so that we don't have to do anything and we can be nice and friendly?" Ji Lai said with a smile as he held his hand.
