Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 184 The Gap
Luo Qingli passed the "Defense" and "Spell" levels one after another. Comparatively speaking, she passed these two levels relatively easily.

The defense level is in a stone chamber. The four walls of this stone chamber will shoot out countless sharp arrows composed of spiritual light. In the absence of defensive magic weapons, Luo Qingli mainly relies on ice shields and sword energy to protect the wall, or uses The sword energy knocked down these arrows.

The sharp arrows became more and more frequent and more powerful. When the ice shield and sword energy barrier began to be unable to withstand it, Luo Qingli's body refining results fully demonstrated his advantages.

She practiced the body refining technique with her bare hands, and the spiritual light flashed slightly on her fists, and she swung it away, bringing up bursts of fist wind. This fist wind hit the sharp arrow head-on, shattering it into countless spiritual lights and dissipating.

The magic level is set according to the individual's major in magic. For example, Luo Qingli majors in ice magic. Then what she needs to do in this level is to pass through a sea of ​​fire and magma. This place is also restricted to air, but the magma There were pieces of floating boards floating in the middle. The floating boards were burned red by the fire, and the temperature was so high that a hole was burned out as soon as I stepped on the soles of my shoes.

The heat wave of the sea of ​​fire was steaming, almost melting people. From time to time, flames burst out from the magma, bubbling and bubbling. Luo Qingli covered his whole body with a layer of ice crystal armor and moved quickly through the sea of ​​fire, keeping steady all the way. Reached the other side steadily.

The cassock on her body has been burned to tatters by the fire, and most of her black hair has been burned away, but the skin around her is still as white as snow, and not even a single black spot is visible.

Luo Qingli directly put another robe on his body. After infusing his scalp with spiritual power to produce new hair, he meditated on the spot to restore his spiritual power.

This was the fifth day since she came to the Cave of Penance. She had passed four levels in a row. Her mental state was also somewhat drained, but it would not have much impact on the next levels.

Luo Qingli came to a wilderness. The wilderness was endless, with a gray sky above his head. In the distance, there were little stars of light, each one representing a person.

All the monks who enter the Pension Cave will eventually gather in this wilderness, and what is tested here is their spiritual consciousness.

Because Luo Qingli has practiced the Condensation Art, her current spiritual consciousness is almost as strong as that of a monk in the early stage of the Golden Core. If the difficulty is set according to her current standards of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, then this level will be in vain for her.

Luo Qingli took a step forward, and suddenly a golden light fell from the sky and fell on her, forming a golden barrier around her. At the same time, a mighty spiritual power came from the barrier and pressed down heavily.Luo Qingli groaned, felt it carefully, and found that the spiritual power around him had reached the golden elixir stage.

"So that's how it is..."

The spiritual power of this place itself varies from person to person, and she will not take any chances just because she has practiced the spiritual consciousness technique.

He was originally going to the Pension Cave for training, so of course Luo Qingli didn't care. He put his hands behind his back and stepped forward step by step.

The wilderness is extremely vast. Every time you walk a certain distance, you will see one or two monks. Each of them looks painful and pale. They can barely stand and are struggling to move forward. Occasionally, you can see some people who are too strong because they cannot bear it. With the pressure, the token on his waist flashed and teleported the person out.

Luo Qingli was able to do it with ease. Although the spiritual power used by the Pension Cave against her current spiritual consciousness was at the early stage of the Golden Elixir, the Condensing Yuan Jue technique she practiced had the effect of reducing the pressure. Wei was nothing to her.

Probably the formation in the Pension Cave noticed her relief, and another golden light fell from the sky. The barrier around Luo Qingli became even brighter, and she could clearly feel that the pressure on her body was getting heavier.

Luo Qingli's progress slowed down, she took a deep breath and continued despite the pressure.

Not far ahead, a thin man wearing an elite disciple's uniform paused on the spot. He bent his back and put his hands on his knees. He was sweating profusely and breathing heavily. He seemed to be stopping here to rest for a while and come back later. continue.

When Luo Qingli passed by him, the man was slightly startled. The first thing he noticed was that the color of the barrier around her was completely different from his.

The level of spiritual power contained in the barrier directly determines the depth of the color. For example, if he is only in the early stage of foundation building, then the barrier will be the lightest gray-white.

The man has come to the Penance Cave for training and training many times. He has also ventured into this wilderness several times and met many fellow monks. However, the barriers on their bodies are at best silver-white, which is basically for disciples in the later stages of foundation establishment. Exclusive, this was the first time he saw someone with a golden barrier.

The man was curious, and looked at the face of the female cultivator in the golden barrier, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Master Luo?"

He caught up with Luo Qingli, walked to her side, wiped his sweat and said with a smile, "Uncle Luo, do you remember me?"

Luo Qingli looked back in confusion.

The man looked like a white-faced scholar, with a bookish air about him, and a gentle smile. Luo Qingli did feel that he looked familiar, but before she could remember, the man could not help but introduce himself first, "Uncle Luo Qingli" , I am Yin Tianhua, a disciple of Luomu Peak."

Yin Tianhua... Luo Qingli thought for a while and said clearly: "A disciple of Master Wanyin?"

"Exactly." Yin Tianhua nodded repeatedly.

More than seven years ago, the Cheng family went to the Jade Toad Sect to provoke a challenge. Cheng Ying singled out the Jade Toad Sect's foundation-building monks in the martial arts hall. He had just established the foundation at that time, and he was a little proud in his heart because he couldn't see Cheng Ying's proud posture. , he jumped on the ring and planned to teach her a lesson, but was knocked down on the ring by the opponent's charming eye spell, and he was unconscious.

Later, he was led out of the ring by his fellow disciples. When he woke up, Luo Qingli had defeated the five monks of the Cheng family. Everyone in the Cheng family also decided to go home. He only saw the beautiful female cultivator surrounded by the crowd in the center.

Although they were at the same level of cultivation, he was knocked down by Cheng Ying, but Master Luo was defeated one against five. Yin Tianhua was still a little unbelievable at first, but later when he heard the disciples present recounting the situation of the competition, he had to believe it, and because of this He remembered the name Luo Qingli and regarded her as his goal.

Two years ago, I heard that Luo Qingli had advanced to the middle stage of foundation building. This speed made all the disciples of the Jade Toad Sect unmatched. Now that he was lucky enough to see the real person face to face, Yin Tianhua couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"Uncle Luo, is this your first time here?"

Yin Tianhua has been a frequent visitor to the Kuxiu Cave over the years, but he has never seen Luo Qingli's name appear on the list of the top [-] stone tablets. He thought that Master Luo must have never been to the Kuxiu Cave, otherwise she should have her place on the stone tablet. .

"Ah."

Luo Qingli nodded slightly and responded. Yin Tianhua stood beside her and could already vaguely feel the mighty pressure contained in the golden barrier. Even if it was not directly exerted on him, he couldn't help but shudder, and his heart was even more... Secretly amazed.

Master Luo can actually withstand such an intensity of spiritual power!

He is indeed Master Luo!
Luo Qingli's steps were steady, and after a while he opened the distance between him and Yin Tianhua. Yin Tianhua wanted to catch up, but he also knew that his current state could no longer bear it. In order to go further, he had to do the best The method is to stop and take a rest.He looked at the golden halo that was gradually disappearing in the distance, and shouted: "Uncle Luo, I will try my best to catch up."

Luo Qingli stopped and turned around. Seeing his high fighting spirit, he couldn't help but laugh and nodded gently, "Then I'll wait for you at the end."

Yin Tianhua's eyes shone brightly, and he felt that his whole body was suddenly full of motivation.

He had a hunch that he would be able to pass the fifth level this time!

Outside the Pension Cave, Luo Qingli's ranking is still climbing up little by little. So far, he has entered the top five, leaving many elite disciples with great reputations among the foundation-building disciples behind.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the stone tablet, and they suddenly became nervous.

When Rong Fang and Yang Pan'er came to the Kuxiu Cave together, they saw many foundation-building disciples standing in front of the stone tablet, staring at it intently.

Rong Xin was puzzled and asked casually: "What are you doing?"

The disciple on duty replied enthusiastically when he heard this: "Senior Brother Rong, Master Luo is entering the penance cave. In just five days, she has already entered the top five. If this trend continues, she will be the leader who replaced Master Zhao." It’s not impossible!”

Rong Fang was startled. After hearing this, Yang Pan'er squeezed into the crowd and came to the stone monument. Sure enough, she saw the three characters Luo Qingli at the No. 5 position. Except for Zhao, who was firmly ranked first above her, Besides Xuan Ting, there were Xue Ce from Qingyan Peak, Ren Xingcheng from Quicksand Peak, and Xiao Chezhi, the young disciple of True Lord Yumin from Luomu Peak.

Yang Pan'er looked all the way down. Rong Fang was roughly in the [-]s, and her own name was around [-]. Even Qin Ziyan, the disciple of Uncle Heshuo, was firmly on her head!
She choked in her heart and had nowhere to vent her breath. She snorted coldly: "What are you talking about? Every level in the Pension Cave is difficult. No one can tell what will happen next moment. Maybe someone will be there soon." It was teleported out!”

This statement was supported and approved by a certain group of people, especially the foundation-building monk who spent a thousand spirit stones to bet against the disciples on duty. Of course, he hoped that Uncle Luo could not pass the level in one go, otherwise his money would really be lost. It's all wasted.

The disciple on duty did not argue with them. In short, he believed in Master Luo and firmly believed in his choice.

Yang Pan'er said that, but she couldn't help but stay.

In the past, she always liked to compare with anyone. Luo Qingli, who was at Piaomiao Peak with her and was a disciple of Yuanying monk, was her primary target of comparison.

When Yang Paner succeeded in building the foundation, Luo Qingli was still traveling outside. When she stabilized her state and went to practice in the Pension Cave, she heard that Luo Qingli was already in the middle stage of the foundation building.

They are about the same age. Yang Pan'er still remembers that in the beginning, his cultivation level was clearly above hers, but ten years later, the gap between them has become wider and wider.

She knew she couldn't compete and didn't want to compete, but she still wanted to see what kind of ranking Luo Qingli could get and how big the distance was between them.

In the wilderness, Luo Qingli walked farther and farther, and she gradually felt tired. The pressure on her body had reached the intensity of the late Golden Elixir. Even if the Condensing Yuan Jue could offset part of it, she still felt more and more tired. Hard work.

The formation in the cave was preventing her from moving forward, but Luo Qingli insisted on confronting it. There was always a tenacity in her bones that refused to admit defeat. She did not want to give up until the last moment.

Luo Qingli gritted his teeth and channeled all his spiritual power. His consciousness spread out to compete with the spiritual power in the golden barrier. The veins on his forehead and neck burst out one by one, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. fall.

She herself didn't remember how long she had been walking. She only knew that when she came to the end of the wilderness, the golden barrier around her shattered, the pressure on her body was relieved, and Luo Qingli fell unsteadily to the ground.

At this time, she looked like she had been fished out of the water, her face was extremely pale, and her head was aching slightly.

Looking back at the road he had walked, Luo Qingli twitched the corners of his lips and chuckled almost imperceptibly: "The potential is forced out..."

The disciple on duty outside the cave saw that Luo Qingli's ranking had climbed to No. 3, and he shouted excitedly: "The fifth level has also been passed! Master Luo is now just short of the last level!"

At this time, the only people in front of her were Zhao Xuanting and Xue Ce. Both of them had cleared the Pension Cave, but it took Xue Ce longer than Zhao Xuanting, so he was ranked second. In second place.

However, Ren Xingcheng and Xiao Chezhi from Luomu Peak passed the first five levels and passed the last one. Luo Qingli's current progress is the same as theirs, but it took her seven days to clear the first five levels, which was a long time. It was shorter than them all, so it ranked ahead of them.

Anyone who has entered the Cave of Penance knows the difficulties involved. He was able to reach the top three after breaking through for the first time. No one would doubt Luo Qingli's strength.

The foundation-building monk who made a bet with the disciple on duty couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his palms became sweaty, and he secretly prayed in his heart that Master Luo would be defeated at the last hurdle, otherwise he would really suffer a big loss!

Yang Pan'er pursed her lips tightly. She remembered that the first time she entered the Pension Cave, even though she was fully prepared, she still fell into the abyss at the end of the second level and was teleported out. She was caught. Staying at the tail of the top [-] list.

One hundred and No. 3, even if Luo Qingli failed at the last hurdle, the gap was already clear.

This time Luo Qingli rested for a long time. This time it was not only a spiritual void, but more importantly, a drain on his mental energy. The best way to warm up his mental energy was to sleep.

She walked into the entrance that was emitting white light and entered a grotto. There was a mirror in the center of the grotto. Luo Qingli did not move and leaned against the stone wall next to the entrance and simply fell asleep.

When she woke up, two days later, her spiritual power had been replenished and her mental state had basically recovered.

Luo Qingli stretched his limbs and felt that he was in good condition at the moment, so he raised his sword and walked towards a huge bronze mirror placed in the center.
