Xuantian 1: Ancient Xuandongtian

Chapter 12 The selection of heaven, the choice of people.

At this moment, Mu Hanchan was thinking about why the magic altar recruited them.

Just to poison them?Obviously not.

If so, why should they be brought in various ways.Is it to train them and teach them how to cultivate immortals?
It seems that it is not that simple.

Looking at the scattered corpses in the stone room, he felt that his life was worthless in the eyes of the magic altar.

What the hell is that for?Is this really just a test?So what is the test to test, or to prove?

He still remembered that he and Lin Mengge had undergone the spiritual root examination together, which only happened a week ago.Er Laoxiu took out the spiritual plate and tested it for them. The purpose of the test is to know whether they have spiritual roots.

What is the test of the magic altar for?
Mu Hanchan thought over and over again, the first time he said it was poisonous, it was really poisonous, and those who didn't believe it were all poisoned to death.The second time it was said that it was not poisonous, but it was still poisonous, and all those who believed it were poisoned to death again.

In this way, those who are too self-confident are poisoned to death, and those who trust others casually are also poisoned to death.

The remaining people survived, some because they were more cautious, some did not grab the food because they were purely cowardly, and some were because they were far away from the meal point, and they had already been robbed there.

What is this round for screening?Most of the stubborn and self-confident people have been poisoned to death, and many of the casual and credulous people have also been poisoned to death. Who will be poisoned to death this time?What kind of people are screened?
The food delivery person said: "Some are poisonous, some are not poisonous." Is this sentence true or false, all true or all false?Or half-truths?If there are half-truths, which are true and which are false?
Mu Hanchan was a little confused and couldn't figure out his thoughts.At this time, many people couldn't help being hungry and went to eat, and there were about forty or fifty people who went there.

If some are poisonous and some are not, then what the food delivery person is telling is the truth.If all of them are poisonous, then the food delivery person is lying if he says some are not poisonous, and his words are half truth and half false.If all of them are not poisonous, then what the mortal sent to say is poisonous is false, and his words are still half false and half true.

There are only three possibilities for what the food delivery person said, one is completely true, and the other is half false and half true.In other words, no matter what, what he said could not be completely false.

Therefore, at least half of what the food delivery person said must be correct.

But he didn't know which half of the sentence was correct.What if the guess is unlucky, some are not poisonous but fake, and all of them are poisonous?
So Mu Hanchan endured the great hunger and continued to wait.

At this time, many people have already eaten.The number of people eating has increased to nearly 200, and there are only more than 100 meals left.Some of these eaters are gambling, and some are hungry and have already given up.

Only Mu Hanchan and a small group of people remained rational.

There are also some people who have been frightened out of their courage and dare not eat no matter what.

In less than half an hour, nearly 300 portions of food had been distributed by more than [-] people.

How can more than 300 people share two hundred meals?

Because many of them still want to try to increase their survival rate when they eat poisonous food by eating less.

It seems that there are not no smart people in the magic world, but this smartness didn't work the first two times.

An hour later, 300 of the 270 food had been eaten.

Only the last 30 food items left.

Of the nearly 700 people still alive, more than 500 people have shared food.And so many people ate it, it seemed that nothing would happen for a while.

Mu Hanchan knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and the food came at noon, but now it was evening, and there were only thirty servings left.But there are 70 to [-] people who are unwilling to eat.

Just when Mu Hanchan walked up to the food and was about to eat it, suddenly a few people started to look strange, just like the people who were poisoned before.

Mu Hanchan froze for a moment, and the rest of the people who hadn't eaten were even more frightened when they saw that someone was poisoned, and those who had already eaten also started to panic.

For a while, no one came to fight for the last thirty food.

Mu Hanchan took a look and found that although many people were poisoned, not many died.

There are also a small number of people who are completely fine.

This time he believed what the food delivery person said, and it was true that some of the [-] copies were poisonous and some were not.

What Mu Hanchan didn't know was that out of the [-] servings of food and water, [-] servings were completely non-toxic, and [-] servings were highly poisonous. If you eat it, you will die, even if you take a bite.

There are two hundred copies that are poisonous, but the toxicity varies, and eating them may not necessarily kill you.

What Mu Hanchan chose was a food that was [-]% poisonous.

Sure enough, not long after, he also felt a burst of abdominal pain, but the pain was bearable.Although the food restored some strength to him, the pain drained all the strength he had just recovered.

He squatted half curled up on the ground, a little nervous.He knew that he had been poisoned too, but it seemed that he felt less pain than most people.The pain didn't begin to ease until midnight.

In the morning of the fifth day, Mu Hanchan was very weak. He looked around and saw that most of the people who were still alive were similar to him, and they were all equally weak.

The number of dead seems to be increasing.

People who ate [-] servings of the poison will surely die, and those who eat more than [-] servings of the poison will also be dying.Even if Mu Hanchan ate a three-point poison, he was weak and weak.

"Unexpectedly, we were almost poisoned to death before we officially entered the altar!"

"Isn't this magic altar too cruel? Treat us like this?"

Yes!Although Mu Hanchan had already made mental preparations before coming here, he still didn't expect the magic altar to be such a cruel and terrifying place.However, what he didn't know was that the cruelty was yet to come.

The third floor of the magic altar.

"Is it wrong for us to do this?"

"What do you mean? Are you questioning the regulations of our magic altar?"

"It's not, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that the death rate is too high? The most important thing is that a small number of spiritual roots died inside are very good. Dozens of three-spiritual roots, nearly a hundred different-spiritual roots, a dozen or so four-spiritual roots, and ..., and a five-element spiritual root."

"Their death is their own problem and their own choice. This is both God's will and their own destiny. Don't regret it."

"However, only one out of a hundred thousand cultivators will have the five-element spiritual root! Even if it is the pure root of the four spirits, the probability is one in ten thousand."

"Our magic altar believes in the laws of nature, not only that, but before we enter the altar completely, we can also artificially add storms, give them enough blows, and screen out those who are not natural kings.

If a monk does not have his own courage and wisdom, then even if he is the best spiritual root, what great things can he accomplish?
What kind of powerful monk can he become?
Instead of wasting resources on them, it is better to filter them from the beginning and allocate resources to more worthy people. "

"But the Five Elements Spiritual Roots and the Four Pure Spiritual Roots are too rare to come by. Maybe we can keep them and cultivate them to see their effects."

One person waved his hand and said in denial: "Most kings are born.

Seventy percent of the powerful monks are already extraordinary when they are very young, either with extraordinary talent, or with superhuman wisdom, or with extraordinary will.

Only [-]% of the powerful monks are late bloomers.

The remaining [-]% is mainly due to luck, and the comprehensive strength of all aspects can achieve major cultivation.

How many of them are five-element spirit roots?
How many are the pure roots of the four spirits?
Not much!
It can be seen that the achievements and original cultivation qualifications in the later stage, that is, after the panacea, do not play a greater role than others themselves. This in itself is their character, ambition, and of course the most important thing, luck and resources.

These are more effective than native qualifications in the later stage. "

"Okay then. I think there are 30 to [-] people who have starved to death. Do you want to continue?"

"Stop it. Give them a full meal, randomly put some general-purpose antidote in the meal, and then start the last test. If they can pass, let them enter the third floor. If they can't, all of them will be disposed of."

Noon on the fifth day.

This time I finally had enough food, and the food delivery person repeatedly emphasized that it was not poisonous.So all the boys who were still alive were eaten.

At this time, there were only 589 boys left alive, about 3/5 left.

Everyone had a good meal.

Afterwards, some people began to ask, and some people asked: "Is there a stone room opposite us, and is there someone like us on the opposite side?"

"I don't know. In theory, we should be in the Yang room, and the opposite should be the Yin room."

"The Yang room is full of boys, so isn't it logical that the Yin room is full of girls?"

"I think it should be."

One of them suddenly had a smile on his face, and said, "Why don't we wait until the trial is over, and if there is a virgin on the other side, let's go and tease it together?"

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"???"

Mu Hanchan looked at those boys in disbelief, his eyes full of incomprehension.

well!How long has it been?

Have you forgotten the horror of these two days?

Even if they forgot, how did they manage to talk and laugh so quickly when the corpses everywhere hadn't been cleaned up?
Mu Hanchan couldn't understand.

He didn't dare to neglect at all, the experience of these two days made him unable to relax, and he waited for the end of the trial with trepidation.

Time passed dusk quickly.

Shortly after the stone chamber was replaced with the moonstone representing the night, a group of people appeared again on the anode of the stone chamber.

Except for the person in the head, the other 18 people were still dressed in black for nine men and white for nine women.

What they brought this time was not food, but things wrapped in black cloth.

The black cloth was slowly spread out, and it turned out that there were eighteen kinds of weapons of all kinds, and each black cloth wrapped ten of them.

A total of 180 weapons.

If you distinguish carefully, you can see that the total number of weapons is 180, but there are more than 36 types of weapons, at least [-] or more.

Why did the people of the magic altar bring weapons to them?

Some people were puzzled, some people were puzzled, but Mu Hanchan's face was solemn, and a strong uneasiness arose in his heart.
