"Phew. Phew …"
Within the pitch-black passageway, a slight, intense gasp accompanied by footsteps gradually approached.
When a figure that was not very tall finally appeared, many people in the stone room revealed looks of surprise.
This person was dressed in cloth, and apart from a few patches, most of it was mud. He was white and tender, more like a weak scholar than a cultivator, and his entire body was filled with the aura of the weak.
After arriving in the stone room, he tidied up his clothes, then cupped his hands towards everyone. His face was full of a kind smile: "Everyone, it's my pleasure to meet you."
"Tsk, this?" Many people frowned, how did this scholar come to Secret Realm, and how did he manage to sneak into the underground palace and pass the first stage of the trial?
From the looks of it, he seemed to have met with some trouble in the small world, and with his deputy being powerless, he was actually able to escape.
After thinking about it for a long time, the corners of Du Hai's mouth slightly curled up: "This brother, seeing that you should be a scholar, and that we are all otherworldly immortals, are you willing to give way?"
The cultivators behind him all had strange expressions, but what Du Hai said was not wrong, to ordinary people, they could indeed be called immortals.
Surprisingly, after a slight pause, the scholar shook his head very politely. "So there really is an immortal that lives here. However, forgive this humble one for being impolite, but fate has bestowed me this opportunity. I must seize this opportunity."
These words were not only polite, but also reasonable. The sixteenth prince and Chonglou looked at each other in dismay. Even if they had so many people, they still wouldn't lose face. What could they do to a scholar?
In reality, the reason why Du Hai aimed his spear at the scholar was to guide the other people's thoughts. After all, if he wanted to pass this trial, he had to defeat everyone.
Among the people present, some things were about benefits first. They were very old Daoist, but there were also people who met with injustice and declared themselves to be virtuous. This was something that would easily lead to conflict.
Just as expected, right after the scholar finished speaking, a young elite snorted coldly: "With your physique, you aren't even able to handle the newly born odd beast s. If you don't want to get injured, you'd better leave quickly!"
"What a friendly tone!" This is the second stage of the trial, and anyone who arrives will have to rely on their own abilities. It's not up to you to decide! "
The two of them represented the attitude of many people. In the other group allied with the Ninth Marquis, a handsome young man with the bearing of a scholar smiled, "Everyone, there's no need to argue anymore. Why don't you let this brother join us?"
"This …"
Many people were slightly shocked. This was the person from the Plum Flower Sect, Ban Huo. He was ranked third among the Ninth Marquis and was extremely powerful.
For the sake of a useless scholar, Ban Huo was actually willing to speak. For a moment, these cultivators were all measuring their strength, not daring to speak carelessly.
The scholar cupped his fists towards Banhu as if in gratitude, "Thank you, brother!"
Ban Huo's smile was very relaxed, but when he looked at the scholar, a hint of coldness in his eyes betrayed his true thoughts.
Du Hai and the others also understood immediately. If a scholar was not strong enough, then he must have grasped some extraordinary object, some treasure, or some information to be able to travel all the way here.
Regardless of which one it was, it was sufficient to decrease the number of twists and turns on the path forward.
"Humph, on the journey of the trial, senior Wu Ji's spiritual consciousness s are watching too closely. They have too many tricks up their sleeves, be careful of the fire that may burn your body." A mysterious cultivator coldly spoke at this moment.
One of the ninth duke's men accompanying Ban Huo immediately retorted sarcastically, "Do some people think that just a little benefit is enough to be on par with us?"
In Secret Realm, other than the seven kings, it was not the Ninth Marquis' turn to interject. Even if those mysterious cultivators had some fortuitous encounters, they were not taken seriously.
The cultivator sneered. He did not say a word, but at the same time he lifted his right palm, he charged towards Banhu's group!
Beside him, another mysterious cultivator raised his eyebrows and also attacked. The two of them were extremely fast and their speed was like the wind, causing everyone's hearts to tremble.
"They are both of the same late period of Golden Pill Stage, yet they have such powerful strength, could it be that they have truly met with a fortuitous opportunity?!"
"This is too strange, the true energy within the two of them did not leak out even the slightest bit when they used their moves. It's a little similar to that Yan's …"
At this moment, someone finally noticed the inklings. Although the two mysterious cultivators used different cultivation techniques and martial techniques, they did not release their true qi, and their power was not squandered at all.
Some people subconsciously looked at Lin Xiao, this was the foundation of the Refinement Stage, who would have thought that after breaking through to the next realm, it would be so terrifying!
"Hmph."
Ban Huo and the other experts of the ninth duke were not weak at all. One by one, they went up to meet him.
Ban Huo put both of his palms together. The surging true energy was so thick that it felt like it was solid. It melted into his palms and there seemed to be a thunderous explosion in the air. A purple dragon shadow accompanied it!
"Breaking Heaven Dragon Curse!"
With a loud shout, Banhu pushed his palms forward. Streams of light, which were like rugged water waves, dispersed in the air layer by layer, forming circular ripples.
The opposing cultivator used a powerful martial skill, his fist striking out, causing the entire stone room to tremble, and the Breaking Heaven Dragon Curse to be completely scattered!
In just a moment, the four of them were unable to determine the victor. The hearts of the other heaven's pride level experts were already filled with shock as they inwardly exclaimed in their hearts.
Too strong, these two mysterious cultivators had really reached the level of the Ninth Marquis. Four against one, yet none of them were at a disadvantage. Their strength was too close!
"Wow, this is really too powerful. Could it be that you all came across the same secret manual and realized the wonderful usage of Zhen Qi?"
Luo Chun could not help but look at Lin Xiao: "Why are you in a daze again?"
Lin Xiao regained his senses, pushed Luo Chun a bit, and then raised his voice: "I said stop fighting, you haven't even figured out the situation, what's going on?"
"Yan, you still dare to spout nonsense!" Du Hai bellowed.
The others also stared at Lin Xiao. They were not too satisfied with such disrespectful words.
Lin Xiao didn't think much of it. "If one wants to pass this trial, there's no need to defeat everyone. All one needs to do is to defeat the opponent in the passage opposite us."
After he finished speaking, he didn't forget to push Luo Chun a little further forward: "This big brother of mine is a disciple of the Myriad Living Pavilion. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."
Hearing these words, even the four people who were fighting stopped. Surprise appeared in each of their eyes, and they began to whisper among themselves. They could not tell if this was true or false.
Regarding the matters of the Secret Realm, they were all relying on the information provided by the sects. In this damned place, no one could make a decision.
"Luo Chun, is this true?" Knowing that there were no results, Du Hai asked loudly.
Luo Chun's expression was a little strange. He opened his left hand, and his thumb quickly moved between his four fingers.
Someone noticed something, and exclaimed in a low voice, "That is the deductions of the Arcane Art s from the Mortal Life Pavilion!"
"What?" "Then we'll know when we get there."
Heaven cannot be revealed to anyone, let alone cultivators. They are people that break away from the mortal world and do things according to their fates. Using normal methods, it is impossible for a cultivator to know about it.
However, the All Living Things Pavilion had a miraculous Arcane Art. If one obtained the true inheritance, they could foresee some things that would happen, such as potential enemies, future calamities, and so on.
Although Luo Chun had not reached that level yet, after deducing the rules of the trial, he still knew a little about it.
After a while, he finally stopped his calculation and wiped the sweat off his face. Luo Chun's expression was extremely strange: "Brother Yan is right, this is truly strange!"
In fact, he had calculated something when he came to the stone room, but he could not calculate anything at that time. Now that Lin Xiao had opened his mouth, these things had surfaced again.
With such a change, since it involved a secret of the heavens, Luo Chun did not dare to try to answer and could only give up.
The others didn't care about this at all. They had always been guarding the passage beside them. At the same time, they focused their gazes on the person in front of them.
Everyone's heart trembled. Only Ban Huo and the other two revealed knowing smiles.
Standing across from them at the other side of the passageway was the scholar!
One of the ninth duke's men could not help but sigh when he led a few geniuses. "Congratulations, brothers, this is fate …"
The others sighed repeatedly. With such heaven-defying luck, his chance of getting the Emperor Meridian was the most likely thing to happen to Ban Huo.
"Haha, then we'll take our leave first."
Ban Huo no longer tried to conceal his laughter. He turned his gaze to the scholar and said, "Brother, if you don't want to be injured, then move to the side."
However, the scholar still shook his head. "If the three of you really want to go, then you'll first have to step over my corpse."
Ban Huo and the other two people stopped in their tracks. They looked at each other, then burst out into laughter. Did they really think they could stop such a scholar?
After stopping, Ban Huo immediately raised his right hand. Before the Breaking Heaven Dragon Curse could be activated, the scholar suddenly laughed, "Why not all of you come at once?
"So that's how it is. To think that you've been pretending all this time."
"Arrogant!"
The three of them were shocked, followed closely by the heavenly rage flames.
A single person, even if he really had any strength, would not be able to defeat three of the Nine Marquis!
In the blink of an eye, the three people of Ban Huo's group attacked with their full strength. All kinds of brilliant lights covered the entire stone chamber as if it were solid!
The three of them used different techniques and martial skills, completely disregarding the scholar as a weakling. They wanted to kill him at the first possible moment!
Boom …
The radiance that filled the air came close to his head. Suddenly, the scholar's body began to emit a white mist of true qi, which was extremely dense.
It was like a defensive barrier, and also like some kind of offensive spell. The moment it was used, it made people feel fear!
Clang!
A series of three huge tremors occurred. As long as the BandHuo trio's magic met with the misty true energy, it would be instantly destroyed. They were even repelled by the powerful rebound!
Bang.
Ban Huo fell to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The other two people were also in pain, unable to stand up.
Hiss!
Gasps could be heard from the crowd. When they looked at the scholar again, the expression in their eyes had completely changed.
Those were three of the Ninth Marquis, not holding back at all to work together against one person. He easily obtained victory by dispersing his true qi outside his body. This …
Within the pitch-black passageway, a slight, intense gasp accompanied by footsteps gradually approached.
When a figure that was not very tall finally appeared, many people in the stone room revealed looks of surprise.
