Chapter 17: Trial

The square is not very large. In addition to the stalls, there are three large shops. Changchun Pavilion sells elixir, Shenbinglou sells weapons, and a Wanfu Building sells runes. To Shen Chong's surprise, the ordinary clerks in this store are all vitality-level cultivation, but these three do not accept gold and silver, but only collect vitality stones.

Shen Chong also heard of Yuanqi stone when he was in Jinling, but he has never seen it. It is said that it is a kind of crystal made by absorbing the qi of heaven and earth. Martial arts can absorb vitality from it, increase cultivation or supplement true qi. It is a hard currency between martial arts sects.

Shen Chong's knowledge of Fu and elixir is also limited. After looking around, he has also gained a lot of knowledge.

It was already afternoon when he returned to Yingxian Pavilion. Shen Chong closed the door, opened the heart-burning formula, and studied it carefully.

The more Shen Chong looked at it, the more shocked he became. This heart-burning formula is indeed a domineering and quick skill, but it is thrilling to practice step by step. Not to mention that this skill is a little incomplete, it is the whole heart method. I'm afraid that if you continue to practice, you will probably go crazy.

However, there are still some things in common with the mind method and the Shaoyang formula, especially the three types of burning heart recorded in the end, which can also be barely used with Shaoyang Zhenqi.

I don't dare to modify my mind, and I don't have the ability, but I can try to modify the moves. Shen Chong put the heart-burning formula in front of him, meditated for a moment, and opened his eyes. The pure yang true qi slowly rose from Dantian and scattered into the eight strange meridians. In a short time, his whole body was hot. The true qi operated for three weeks. The first type of burning heart three "sky fire burning city" was hit out. The violent heat hit the ground and burned the surrounding ten feet black, compared with simple Using the Shaoyang formula is several times more powerful, and it is really effective, but with one move, the whole body is red, as if it had been roasted on the fire, and the bones all over the body are about to fall off. This heart-burning formula hurts the enemy, and it is extremely harmful to the body. It is really not to be underestimated. You must find a way to strengthen the body before you can use it many times.

For half a month, Shen Chong did not walk out of the door, kept practicing this first form, constantly improving, and minimizing the damage to the body.

It soon came to the day of the entry examination. Under the leadership of an outer door stewener, everyone went out of the Wuwei Valley, walked along the mountain road for about two hours, climbed a hillside and walked before a cave.

Shen Chong calculated that there were about 100 people who participated in the entry examination this time, most of whom were only true-level cultivation. Only the two people's breath revealed the innate artistic conception of the middle circle to good and endless life.

"At this time, this is the place where you will take the first assessment." The outer doorkeeper said.

Shen Chong looked up and saw that the cave was about three or four feet wide, deep and bottomless. From time to time, there was a gloomy wind blowing out inside, which made people feel cold and piercing. There were two big words "trial" engraved next to the cave.

There was a person standing on the platform in front of the cave, wearing a cyan Taoist robe and standing with his hands behind his hand. At this time, Shen Chong knew that the Three Holy Sects were divided into outer and inner doors. The disciples of the outer door wore gray Taoist robes, while the inner disciples wore cyan Taoist robes.

Seeing that this person is full of blood and introsevere, he is actually an inner disciple. Although he can't see this person's cultivation, he is definitely above Xu Lin on that day.

The outer door stewer who led the way saluted the ground respectfully and said, "Brother Li, the 97 disciples who participated in the entrance examination have been brought. Please also ask you to conduct the primary election."

Brother Li stepped forward and said, "In this primary election, if you are over 18 years old, you will take the initiative to retreat. If the bone age does not match, there will be no chance to leave here again."

In addition to reaching the broken martial arts level, martial arts cultivation can be reversed, and the mystery of life expectancy can be increased to reach more than 100 years old, otherwise it will not exceed 100 years. As soon as a person is over 40 years old, his body and bones have taken shape, and his qi and blood have also changed from prosperity to decline. If he can't break through the realm of martial arts, basically his martial arts cultivation has stopped, unless he is convinced. Only by improving the physique and increasing the longevity can there be further possibilities. Therefore, the younger the age, the higher the plasticity. The Great Zhou Dynasty stipulated that eighteen years old was an adult, so the Three Holy Sect limited the age of disciples to 18 years old.

Everyone bowed their heads and said nothing, but no one quit.

"Good!" After waiting for a while, when no one answered, Brother Li nodded, glanced at the crowd, and smiled, "I didn't expect that there were innate geniuses in this recruitment. Not bad, not bad."

The innate level is a watershed in martial arts. The first three layers pay attention to refining, while the last four layers pay attention to enlightenment. The panacea and natural resources and earth treasures can pile up a true qi-level warrior in a short time, but it is not so easy to break through the innate.

If you can understand the innate meaning before the age of 18, you must be a highly qualified person. As long as there is no problem with your origin, all sects will rush to win it.

Brother Li paused and continued to say, "This cave is the trial place of my family - the trial cave. There are my unique blood bats in Luoxia Mountain. The first level is to test everyone's martial arts. In half an hour, 50 blood bats will be cut down and seize the demon core in its body."

Blood bat, what is that? A monster? Shen Chong has never heard of blood bats, but he knows from his intuition that they are not easy to mess with. It seems that they must be monsters living in groups, which are not so easy to catch.

Seeing that everyone had doubts, Brother Li smiled and said, "You should still be careful. This blood bat is bloodthirsty and violent. The strongest is only equivalent to vitality-level cultivation, but the speed is extremely fast, the body is hard, and the claws are better than swords. Thousands of people gathered together and hum, even if they are innate masters, they fall into the siege. It's hard to get out of the attack.

"It's an innate master."

"This, isn't this letting us die?"

Some of Mr. Wang's children began to talk a lot, with a look of fear in their eyes. Some people who paid for their own cultivation and prepared for a try also became solemn.

"Well, you think that practicing martial arts and Taoism is smooth sailing. Which of the successful person is not broken through the bloody wind? If you don't have a strong mood and extraordinary courage, don't practice anymore. You are all children of rich and noble families. Go home and enjoy the glory and wealth." Brother Li snorted coldly.

"I would like to warn you again, only on the periphery of the first layer, don't go deep, let alone go down to the second layer, otherwise several lives will not die. The timing has begun. You only have half an hour. If you don't go in, just think that you have given up this assessment.

"Okay, I'll go first." A thin teenager jumped out, and a few flashes arrived at the entrance of the trial cave. He was really restrained and slid in silently. He was one of the two innate disciples. For a moment, it was like a stone falling into a calm lake, and there was a slight sound of riot from the cave, which slowly returned to calm.

Since someone took the lead, the rest of the people also rushed into the cave one after another. Only 14 people were afraid to walk in. Brother Li looked at it coldly and ignored these people.

Shen Chong also rushed in. There was no light in the cave. It was as dark as ink, but the cultivation reached the true level. The sensitivity of the five senses greatly increased, and his eyes could see things in the dark. As soon as everyone entered the cave, they dispersed separately. Shen Chong also clung to the wall of the cave, and his spiritual knowledge was open, feeling everything around him.

The trial cave is worthy of being a place of trial. The space in the cave is extremely large, and the access roads are crisscrossed. The big hole is a small hole with twists and turns. If it goes deep, I'm afraid it won't be lost in long.

Looking up again, there are many bats hanging upside down on the top of the big cave. The whole body is blood red, which is half a foot in size. I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of bats in the whole cave. This should be blood bats. Several of them have been shocked by the disciples who came in before, and they rushed down and fought with several people.

Fortunately, these bats are different from common bats. They do not attack in groups, but hundreds of them are shocked, so those people can still persist.

The first teenager who came in came out of his palms and waved two true qi, one yin and one yang. The yin qi protected the body. The yang qi hurt the enemy. His palms were open and closed. His moves were fierce and dense. The defense was not leaking. He was vaguely famous. Several blood bats had already lying on his feet.

Shen Chong pulled out the broken jade sword, held the sword in his right hand, and protected himself with his left hand. A true qi stabbed the nearest blood bat. At this time, Shen Chong had practiced the Shaoyang formula to the fourth level, and the control of the true qi had reached the level of his will, close to the true qi level. A Shaoyang true qi came out, condensed but did not disperse. With the help of the broken jade sword, it turned into sword spirit, with red heat, and immediately split a blood bat in half.

The dead blood bat fell to the ground, and a dragon-eyed demon core rolled out with a dark red light.

Suddenly, there was a loud voice, and hundreds of bats flew down. Shen Chong ran Shaoyang Zhenqi with all his strength, and the broken jade sword showed two styles of lostness and shadow. The dance was impenetrable and blocked them.

The two types of lost and shadow are both good at speed. The two types are the same, and immediately protect Shen Chong's body in the sword light.

Shaoyang's formula is the pure heart method of Taoism. It has restraint on demons. Those blood bats can't stand the spirit of pure yang and can't attack for a while, but Shen Chong can't kill them away. The hundreds of blood bats kept spinning around him, and the situation was deadlocked for a while.

The cultivation is less than innate, and it can't be turned from the inside to the outside. After a long time, the true qi will definitely be bad, which will let the blood bats take advantage of the deficiency. Shaoyang Zhenqi can only protect itself and can't hurt the enemy, but you can just try the three types of heart burning that have just been practiced.

The mind must be, the palm retreated, the true qi soared, with a fanatical atmosphere, wandering around the whole body, suddenly like a fire, particularly dazzling in the dark hole, the air luck dagger, the snow-white sword body also turned red.

The blood bats all over the body were suddenly frightened by the firelight and scattered and fled. Shen Chong's momentum had become. The "sky fire burning city" was like a fire dragon, rolled around. Suddenly, bursts of burning smell came, and many blood bats were swept by the fire dragon.

Although the blood bats are rough and thick, they are cold and cold. They live in the cave all year round. This pure heart-burning secret is their nemesis. After being swept by the fire, they crackled on the ground.
