Chapter 284: Trial Ground for Heroes
Yang Zhu was personally received by the envoys, and rode a dragon horse into the magnificent city in front of him.
The soldiers guarding both sides were wearing cold iron clothes, each holding a long halberd and an iron sword, with murderous intent, but the shock and envy could still be seen in their eyes.
They were both worshipers on the ancient road before, but they all lost on the cruel path of proof. Unwilling to do so, they stayed and became soldiers.
"Is it really that strong..."
Guan Cheng stared at Yang Zhu without blinking, unable to calm down.
This is the first time in tens of thousands of years that the human race’s first pass leader personally greets the trainees!
"How did you know I arrived?"
When passing by to pick up the envoy, Yang Zhu asked thoughtfully. After all, he had never revealed his identity along the way.
“There is a special formation in the city, and there will be a reaction when someone of the emperor’s level comes.”
Hearing this, Yang Zhu just nodded slightly, and then under the leadership of the other party, he went to the main building of the city to stay, instead of having to deal with it on his own like other practitioners.
"Let's go, at least wait a few days less."
Outside the city, the experienced people entered the city one after another, but their hearts were inexplicably heavy and there was an unspeakable depression.
“The Emperor of the Human Race is here!”
On that day, the news of Yang Zhu’s arrival swept through like a hurricane, spreading to every corner of the city at the fastest speed.
Except in the first level, this news spread all the way along the ancient road, and even the trialists who were at the forefront knew about it.
"The Emperor's son..."
Di Tian and others were already famous in the ancient world decades ago. Now they have no rivals and are almost invincible.
But when I heard the news, my heart still "thumped". No need to explain too much, the word "Emperor's Son" is enough to explain everything!
Those two words seem to have a special magic power. Just hearing them can make people feel suffocated, making people unable to breathe...
"Haha, it's so exciting!"
As night fell, Yang Zhu and the others stood above the main city, overlooking the ancient city.
The bright moon is in the sky, and the silver light is spreading, covering the huge thing in front of you with a layer of silver gauze, making it seem like it is bathing in the starlight.
The thick city wall covered with traces of various swords, guns, swords and halberds is the "brilliance" left by history, adding a sense of solemnity and majesty to this place.
"The cloth under the pass is covered with ancient formations, at least from the hands of the great sage. It can independently absorb the essence of the sun and moon as a supplement to achieve the effect of eternal immortality."
Yang Zhu opened his divine eyes and could see that the top and bottom of the ancient city were shrouded in many formations, which would become even more dazzling at night.
The array pattern seems to be alive, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth like a human being. It is very magical.
"Yes."
The guide had his hands behind his back and his eyes were deep, looking down at this ancient pass.
On the first night of the switch, although it was stated at the time that the rules were not to allow fighting in the city, undercurrents and murderous intentions could not be avoided.
Those experienced people are all good at it, and conflicts are inevitable. With their temperament, how can they give up so easily?
So when it is late at night, some people will be unable to bear it. The envoys and soldiers are not surprised by this, and most of them will turn a blind eye.
As long as you don’t bring things to light, you don’t want to interfere too much, because this is also a kind of experience.
"The handiwork is really huge, I have to study it carefully."
The big black dog is very accomplished in the formation. He was also amazed by this formation. He immediately started to understand it and was very fascinated.
After a quarter of an hour, Yang Zhu withdrew his eyes, feeling quite a bit.
“Retreating here is indeed a good choice.”
He casually grabbed forward, and all the stars in the sky were caught in his hands. They were crystal clear, dazzling, and majestic. The energy is flowing.
The figure became shaky and merged with the void. He took one step forward and sat down cross-legged in the air at the first gate.
In an instant, the power of all the stars within a thousand miles radius was affected, all gathered towards it, and were absorbed.
The formation under his feet suddenly dimmed a lot, and it was difficult to compete with it.
"Woo..."
The next day, a long horn sounded, vast and distant, as if it came from ancient times, and seemed to be the cry of the ancestors of the ancient human race.
Everyone in the city stood up and silently gathered towards the square in the center of the city.
"There is only one purpose for entering the trial field today, to obtain the secret of the great road of that world. If you don't have this understanding, you will stop here!"
The receptionist appeared in the square with a serious expression and short words, as if he did not want to say another word.
"I will lead you!"
A powerful leader stood up and chanted ancient mantras, similar to the sacrificial sounds from the ancestors.
"Boom!"
The void above the square cracked, and a special altar emerged. It was so huge that no one felt crowded after standing on it.
A huge beam shot out, penetrating the universe, tearing open a wide space channel, leading to the unknown other side.
Under the leadership of the leader, a group of cultivators climbed onto the altar in an orderly manner and entered the tunnel.
"Let's go."
Yang Zhu retreated from his cultivation state, taking Black Emperor and Longma with him. In a moment, he arrived at the square and followed everyone to the trial ground.
I don’t know how long it took, but after everyone left the tunnel, a huge island suddenly appeared in front of them.
It is more majestic than an ancient star, and has the aura of eternal vicissitudes. It has gone through countless catastrophes, and it stands here, leaving endless legends to future generations.
"The trial field will be opened, and your path to certification will begin. Whether a great emperor who will be stunning for all eternity will appear, we will wait and see in the future!"
Take everyone to the island of God. , the leader began to briefly introduce the rules.
"The island is divided into..."
This island is called Meteor Holy Island, and it is divided into forty-nine areas. There is a layer of barriers between each area. Each layer is crossed. There will be millions of pounds of shackles on the body.
It will undoubtedly become more difficult to kill others across domains.
The center of the island is a forbidden area, extremely dangerous, and no one knows how terrifying it is inside.
Even the commander did not dare to set foot easily, he was very afraid.
“Isn’t that Mr. Ye?”
The Black Emperor saw Ye Fan in the crowd and was surprised and happy. It seemed like a coincidence.
However, his situation is not optimistic, and he has already formed rifts with many people off the court.
The Thirteen Horsemen of Tianhuang, the middle-aged Taoist nun, Lan Feng, and Hongliu are all rare heroes, and their strength cannot be underestimated.
"Do you need me to take action?" Yang Zhu looked and heard a divine voice from secretly.
"Thank you very much. I want to solve it myself. Don't worry, I'm sure."
Ye Fan nodded distantly and thanked Yang Zhu for his kindness, but he was not afraid of those people. Just kill him!
"Boom!"
Seeing this, Yang Zhu didn't say anything. He was the first to take the lead. Step by step, the bright avenue emerged, the heaven and the earth roared, thousands of ways moved together, and various visions appeared.
He did not choose any entrance to the forty-nine area, but stepped across the endless space and climbed to the top of the central restricted area. Immediately, he disappeared from the eyes of the onlookers.
“What a powerful means!”
"Is this the emperor's son? He is really strong and he went straight into the central restricted area."
Everyone's heart skipped a beat. The trial had just begun. Yang Zhu showed such courage. It was true for them. There was a huge wave of pressure.
After Yang Zhu, Yu Xian, Ku Tou Seng, Tuo Ba Yu, and Ou Ye Mo walked out one after another, each choosing a foreign land to enter.
They have long had a good reputation and their strength is difficult to predict. They all have a tacit understanding to separate more than one area to avoid conflicts.
Yang Zhu and the others descended. The vegetation here was lush, the ancient vines were crisp, and the old trees were towering. All they could see was a primitive landform.
However, under the lush scenery, there is a kind of wild ancient air coming out, and a kind of heart-stopping murderous intent permeates the air.
"Poof!"
The sword flew across the sky, flashing with brilliance and blood, and a holy-level wild beast that came to kill was split in half by force on the spot!
It was a kind of black ant with two horns, dozens of feet long, and its whole body was covered with fine black scales, which was comparable to the most perfect armor.
His cultivation has already broken through to the realm of a saint, but he still couldn't withstand a single blow from Yang Zhu's Heavenly Sword!
"Hiss, there is a saint-level desolate beast coming up. Isn't that deep..."
The dragon and horse are frightened. According to what the leader said, there is definitely something extremely terrifying here.
"If you can't do it, leave quickly. Don't embarrass yourself. Just wait outside."
The Black Emperor glanced disdainfully and kept sneering.
"What are you talking about? I have been here for so many years, how can I be afraid of this?!"
Hearing this, the angry dragon and horse's manes stood up, their nostrils spurted divine flames, and they kept talking.
Yang Zhu held the Heavenly Sword in his hand and walked toward the deepest point. Not long after walking, he saw a hundred-foot-high mountain peak split in half by human power.
“This is actually a mountain made of divine materials. It was split open and the essence was taken away.”
Yang Zhu was startled. The surface of the mountain in front of him was covered with green plants, but the mountain was not. It is a kind of dark divine material, very rare, and it is definitely more than enough to forge holy weapons!
If you want to split it with a single sword, you need at least the strength of the Saint King.
"It's a pity that the essence has been taken away."
The Black Emperor secretly sighed that it was a pity. The materials for refining the peerless holy weapons were extremely rare. If they could be obtained, their value would be immeasurable.
They continued to move forward, and when they passed between two large mountains, they entered a valley. The moment they stepped in, the strong smell of blood hit their nostrils.
In front of me, blood and bones were everywhere, and various corpses were lying on the ground. Many of them were trampled into bloody mud, and blood flowed across them, as if they had arrived at an ancient battlefield.
"Eh... Damn, I'm scared."
Ryoma accidentally stepped on a head. I don’t know how many years had passed. The skin and flesh had long since melted away, but it still had a crystal luster.
It was only the head rolled in a pool of blood, stained with the foul-smelling black blood, that attracted a lot of disgust.
"Most of the corpses here do not belong to the human race. Could it be that there were testers before who slaughtered this place?"
The Black Emperor soon discovered something unusual. There were corpses everywhere here, but it was easy. It can be recognized as coming from an unknown creature.
As for the human race, there are only a few.
"Let's go."
Without staying too long, Yang Zhu and the others quickly left here and continued deeper.
Next, they passed through many dangerous places, more than thirty in total.
There are fields formed by chaotic energy, fire caves that spit out divine flames, and killing arrays set up by other creatures...
They also often encounter powerful creatures, many of which are Saint level, with terrifying cultivation, most of them are dormant in their habitats.
However, Yang Zhu's aura was too strong. The vast energy and blood and the powerful power of the avenue were like shaking many holy-level wild beasts before he got close.
How should I put it, it’s like the opponent’s health bar and heavenly sword have already hit their face before the battle begins.
Of course, there are also those who are not afraid of death and cull them, but the result is that with one strike from the wild beast, everything within a radius of dozens of miles of its habitat was flattened and turned into ashes.
Yang Zhu swept all the way, nothing could resist him.
“Don’t tell me, there are indeed a lot of good things!”
The Black Emperor didn't make much effort along the way and just focused on searching for treasures. In four days, the little Medicine King who was over 20,000 years old got eight plants alone.
Other ancient and treasures are even more difficult to count.
Finally, Yang Zhu and the others stood at the foot of a cliff. At their feet was a chaotic divine waterfall, thousands of feet long, flying down from the bluestone mountain.
The Divine Chaos Waterfall is flowing, overflowing with colorful rays of light, and filled with spiritual energy. It is an excellent place for practicing and tempering weapons.
“This place is the center of the island. The divine waterfall is condensed from the life essence of other areas. You can temper your body here.”
After saying that, before the two of them could get together, Yang Zhu threw them down, hanging a few feet away from the Chaos Divine Waterfall.
"Ah! No, I... my bones are all broken..."
A wisp of chaotic mist is as heavy as a mountain range. Just one wisp fell, and the dragon and horse were killed. More than a dozen of his bones were broken, and he screamed repeatedly.
The big black dog bared his teeth, and under the baptism of Chaos Qi, he felt as if his body was going to explode. The severe pain made his body tremble.
But after all, he has been baptized by many divine materials. His physical body is unparalleled in the same realm, and even dragons and horses cannot match it.
"Woof!"
So he felt better. Occasionally, he would bark like a dog, but he didn't scream like a dragon or a horse.
It is more than enough to sacrifice and refine the holy weapons here. You can imagine how painful it is to temper the body, which is very difficult for people to endure!
They knew that this was a great opportunity to temper themselves, and after shouting for a while, they began to grit their teeth and persist.
Even if the flesh and skin exploded and Bai Sensen's bones leaked out, there would be no more ghostly cries.
"Maybe you can take the opportunity to break through."
After the situation stabilized, Yang Zhu sat down on the cliff. Suddenly, a waterfall of gods was like a sea, all of which were absorbed by him and transformed into pure spiritual power.
Two days later, the big black dog and the dragon and horse were able to end. At this moment, the two of them were covered in blood, their skin was torn, and they almost turned into bloody mud.
They quickly found a place to recover. After only two days, not only were they all recovered, but their level suddenly skyrocketed!
Moreover, their physical bodies have improved a lot again, and even the holy soldiers can't easily do anything to them!
"Wow! The emperor is only one step away from the semi-saint, and it is just a piece of cake to catch the holy soldiers!"
The big black dog's hair became more translucent, and he laughed wantonly, raised his paws and patted several people in front of him. Zuo Dayue suddenly turned into ashes, which was extremely terrifying.
"When..."
On the twelfth day after entering, a bell rang throughout the Holy Island of Death. The time has come. All testers must exit this place, otherwise they will be sealed here. .
"Emperor, do we want to leave?" the big black dog asked.
"Then let's go."
Yang Zhu retreated from the state, used his supreme magical power, intercepted the divine waterfall and the entire mountain, and collected it into the chaotic fairy land.
I feel overwhelmed again, so I will speed up the plot next, I don’t want to waste it slowly
