The five men were all startled by Qi Shi'an's sudden appearance and immediately retaliated.

Soon after, the mountain burst into a dazzling light, giant trees shattered, and rocks flew through the air.

In an instant, the mountain area fell silent. The five people coughed up blood, their bodies covered in blood, and their injuries were even more severe.

"Fellow Daoist, why don't you show your true face?" a young man in white asked, his voice trembling.

"Special fetishes are none of your business. Hand over all the Sky-Mending Stones you have, or else..."

Qi Shi'an's eyes were as cold as ice, his fists were clenched, and he exuded murderous intent.

"No...don't kill us, we'll give it to you, we'll give it to you!"

The five men trembled as they took out all the Sky-Mending Stones. Qi Shi'an took them all, while one of them continued his solitary journey through the dense forest.

"Phew... This person's strength is terrifying." One person sighed.

The five of them were severely injured, and all the Heaven-Mending Stones had been plundered, making it extremely difficult for them to pass the second trial.

However, Qi Shi'an didn't go far before he thought for a moment and turned back.

"what!"

He silently and swiftly rushed towards the five men, knocking them all unconscious. Then, he took a piece of the Sky-Mending Stone from each of their bags and threw the bags back to the five men.

"I only took one piece from each of them; how kind of me!"

Qi Shi'an looked at these five people and they seemed to be geniuses from a tribe. Since they were not from a major power, he would not kill them all.

After all, in their previous life, they were the "only college students in the village."

He kindly threw the five men onto a huge ancient tree to prevent them from being carried off by wild beasts, and then left with his spoils.

They didn't know how much time had passed before the five of them woke up, feeling excruciating pain from head to toe.

"Hey, big brother, why did that person return the Sky-Mending Stone again?" A dark-skinned boy asked in a weak voice.

"I don't know, and it seems like a piece is missing from my bag."

The boy, referred to as the eldest brother, immediately checked the Sky-Mending Stone in the bag and found that one was missing.

"Big brother, me too."

"mine too."

The five men discovered that each of them was missing one item from their bag, and they couldn't understand why the other person had done so.

"Never mind, as long as we can barely get through, that's fine. Healing is the priority."

The boy, who was called the eldest brother, stopped worrying and focused on healing his injuries.

At this moment, Qi Shi'an was in a cave refining the Star Grass.

The Star Grass he obtained was a five-leaf Star Grass. He swallowed it whole and immediately activated the runes, drawing upon the endless spiritual essence within his body and refining it into every inch of his flesh and blood.

In an instant, a great light shone forth, the runes glittered, and his entire body shimmered with starlight. At this moment, he was like a celestial god, dazzling and radiant.

The Star Grass has extremely strong medicinal properties, and is incomparably domineering. It transforms into a hazy starlight within his body, and then spreads to every part of his body, tempering his flesh and bones.

For the entire night, Qi Shi'an remained motionless, comprehending the profound meaning of the runes and experiencing the power of growth.

I didn't open my eyes until dawn.

"My physical body has indeed become much stronger. It truly lives up to its reputation as a spiritual medicine."

Qi Shi'an stood up, preparing to head to the exit of the second battlefield to deliver the Sky-Mending Stones. Before leaving, he dropped two more Sky-Mending Stones, leaving only three, which would be enough.

He wandered through the mountains and forests, hoping to encounter someone, because he had forgotten how to get out and how to get back.

After walking for most of the day, they finally came to a flat area and saw several of the boys who had been traveling with them. They had clearly formed an alliance.

However, they did not fight each other. It seemed that they had enough of the Heaven-Mending Stones in their hands and were only coming together to fight the enemy together. Qi Shi'an hurriedly stepped forward to ask for directions.

"Hey, I heard something interesting happened outside. You two don't know yet, do you?" a boy said with a grin.

"What interesting thing happened? How do you know?" someone asked.

"A guy just came in from outside, and I don't know what he wanted to do. He stupidly asked me for advice."

"I told him some things and asked him how things were outside. He then told me a funny story that almost made me laugh to death."

"Tell me quickly."

"A total of 19,700 people from the third and eighth zones successfully made it through the final challenge."

"The elders of the Butian Pavilion looked like they had seen a ghost, and they almost fainted from anger."

"impossible?"

"It's true. It's said that the talisman bones in these two areas were looted, which caused the array to fail, allowing those people to pass through."

When the boys heard this, their mouths gaped open wide enough to fit an egg; they simply couldn't believe it.

"Speaking of which, this style seems so familiar, it feels like I've seen it before."

"What you said reminds me. This style does indeed resemble the work of those two brats from the Void God Realm."

These words immediately sparked a heated discussion among them.

In the distance, Qi Shi'an, who was walking towards them, listened to the heated discussion and showed no surprise; these things were all within his expectations.

At this moment, Elder Xiong Fei, Elder Zhuo Yun, and other elders discussed the matter with the clan elders of various tribes. In the end, they gritted their teeth and almost shed tears, agreeing to allow four thousand people to pass through.

Cutting off so many people from 19,700 is already the biggest concession the Butian Pavilion has made.

After all, resources are limited. If the number of people increases, internal strife will inevitably occur within the Butian Pavilion sooner or later.

They even fought each other for resources, but how could the tribal members be a match for the children of powerful forces? In the end, the tribal members suffered heavy casualties.

"These 19,700 people must be reselected. Except for the geniuses who enter the second battlefield, this attempt does not count."

How to select four thousand people? Perhaps we'll have to try again.

In the second battlefield, Qi Shi'an stepped forward.

"Brothers, we have enough Sky-Mending Stones. How do we get out?"

Qi Shi'an spoke in a low voice, trying his best to show his naive side.

"Oh? You've had enough? Now that you've gathered all the Sky-Mending Stones, just wait patiently until the elders personally open the passage to the second battlefield," a young man explained to him.

"Oh, is that so?"

Qi Shi'an was somewhat apprehensive, pretending to be a weak person who was afraid of unexpected events.

"How about this, you come with us. It'll be safer if we travel together as a group."

"Yeah."

And so, Qi Shi'an followed them, walking at the very back, his eyes darting around as he sized up the boys.

"Hey, do you think the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion will seal off the second battlefield? After all, those two fierce kids must have entered this place."

"That's for sure. They did something that is so outrageous that even the elders would love to arrest them and give them a good beating."

Qi Shi'an walked behind them, listening to their intermittent chatter.

He wasn't worried at all that his disguise would be seen through, because the Zhu Yan Treasure Technique was a top-tier supernatural power, and the runes from the Myriad Paths Tree could further enhance the disguise.

This is the source of his confidence in possessing a top-tier treasure, and it's also why he didn't choose to return to the third region for a re-assessment.

Qi Shian said with relief, "By now, Little One should have already gone out. With his clever and mischievous personality, I'm sure he'll be able to sneak into the Heaven-Mending Pavilion safely."

Outside, the elders of various tribes were overjoyed, while those from other powerful forces who came to "observe the ceremony" were all smiling with an ambiguous meaning.

This time, the Butian Pavilion planned to organize more than 10,000 people into one area and recruit 4,000 disciples from it, so the difficulty of the challenges set up was greatly reduced.

Ultimately, the first four thousand people to successfully complete the challenge were selected.

The elders of Butian Pavilion were all sighing and looking pale as they saw hundreds of people coming out in a group. Was this still a test?

With such a large group of people recruited this year, plus those two fierce kids, the future of the Butian Pavilion is truly going to be chaotic.

"I'm going to settle the score with those two brats later!" Elder Xiong Fei said fiercely.

“That’s right. Once you participate in the trial, you’ll be considered a disciple of our Heaven-Mending Pavilion. Even if you don’t pass, we’ll make sure you do. You can’t escape it.” Elder Zhuo Yun said with a dark face.

Even if the two brats deliberately avoided the second battlefield, they would still forcibly keep them there. They had caused such a big mess, and it would be difficult to appease their anger without teaching them a lesson.

Finally, the selection of the four thousand people was completed, and the mission was accomplished. Except for the Patching Heaven Pavilion, everyone was overjoyed.

"Let's go! We're heading to the second battlefield; it's about time!"

Elder Xiong Fei waved his hand, displaying an imposing and overwhelming aura.

However, no matter how you look at him, he seems to be gritting his teeth, hence his fierce and passionate expression.

"Come, fellow Daoists, please come inside to witness the ceremony and see the future pillars and prodigies of our Heaven-Mending Pavilion!"

Elder Zhuo Yun shouted loudly, emphasizing the words "pillar of the nation" and "prodigy" as if he wanted to devour them.

"Could we let these four thousand children also see the so-called second battlefield? Let them broaden their horizons," several tribal elders said in unison.

"Can!"

Elder Xiong Fei waved his hand, agreeing immediately.

The second battlefield opened, and everyone prepared to step forward.

However, a small figure squeezed into the crowd, with a happy smile on his face, his big eyes curving into crescent shapes, and his two little tiger teeth shining brightly.

He was Shi Hao, and he was feeling quite pleased with himself as he followed the others "back" to the second battlefield.

Chapter 28 The Chaotic Heaven-Mending Pavilion (Please add to your favorites, recommend, and vote!)

In the distance, the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion led everyone into the second battlefield.

Upon entering, they bumped into a promising young prodigy.

Elder Xiong Fei and Elder Zhuo Yun were full of praise, and people from other major forces were also envious. Many even had the idea of ​​poaching him in person.

But at this moment, most people were thinking that they would soon see the two legendary fierce kids and baby.

The second battlefield was sealed off, which must be to capture those two brats. Just thinking about it makes me excited and thrilled.

These two outrageous little creatures have finally been exposed and can no longer escape!

"Well, I would also like to invite you fellow Daoists to admire two precious medicinal herbs in a while. They are rare treasures in the world and may one day be transformed into sacred medicines."

Elder Zhuo Yun spoke casually, with an air of composure and utter calmness.

When necessary, they need to demonstrate part of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion's strength in order to awe all around and attract more geniuses.

"That's something to look forward to! The Heaven-Mending Pavilion has actually cultivated two sacred herbs, which fills us with awe." The group was shocked.

What is this sacred medicine? It can bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded; you could search the entire vast wilderness and not find even one!

Now, the Butian Pavilion has actually cultivated two of them, which is truly astonishing.

Everyone felt that the trip was worthwhile.

"Let's first take a look at the geniuses of our Heaven-Mending Pavilion and appreciate their extraordinary talents," Elder Xiong Fei said passionately.

At this moment, they strode forward to get a closer look at the promising young man, who was being praised by the elders, yet remained unfazed.

When Shi Hao saw this person in the crowd, he couldn't stop smiling.

Of all those present, probably only he and the boy knew what the big bump on his head was.

However, he followed the elders, looking around, but did not see Qi Shi'an.

Meanwhile, Qi Shi'an was on a distant mountain peak, swaggering behind a group of people, without any psychological burden, confident that no one could see through his disguise.

Elder Xiong Fei and Elder Zhuo Yun led the group to observe the young people in the second battlefield, but none of them possessed the talent to match that of the promising young man; the gap was obvious.

When his gaze fell upon Qi Shi'an, he paused slightly. Runes swirled in Elder Xiong Fei's eyes, revealing an indescribable mystique about him.

But upon closer inspection, I didn't find anything unusual, and I just thought that my perception was wrong, so I let it go.

"Three Sky-Mending Stones, barely enough," Elder Xiong Fei said calmly.

When Elder Xiong Fei led everyone past him, he felt a strange sense of pride and thought to himself, "As expected, they couldn't see through my disguise. The Myriad Dao Tree has really done a great service."

Suddenly, he saw a boy looking around, whose face was the same as the one he had seen when he parted ways with Shi Hao.

He strode along behind the main group, his divine sense freely scanning Shi Hao.

Shi Hao's mental power was keen; he sensed a divine sense scanning him without any attempt to conceal it, and it never left.
