The lifeless eyes with dilated pupils fell on Qian Lin, causing Qian Lin to shiver uncontrollably. Being stared at by such a pair of eyes was really a bit frightening.
But soon, Qian Lin discovered that the monster was not looking at him, but at the Dragon Emperor Sword.
"The holy sword is in your hand... I see."
After staring at the Dragon King Sword for a long time, the monster woman finally spoke her first words.
Her voice is very pleasant, gentle with a hint of the fragrance of flowers, which can shake people's hearts unconsciously and make people who hear this voice want to trust her and dedicate everything to her.
The sound did not come from where her human form was, but came simultaneously from the sea of flowers under Qian Lin's feet. This made Qian Lin even more certain that the woman he saw was only a part of this monster.
This guy's true form is probably hiding in the sea of flowers.
"It seems like you know the secret hidden in this sword." Qian Lin looked at the woman who looked like a doll, shook his head, and replied, "Then can you tell me what is special about this sword?"
"It's the key." The woman stood up from the throne, exuding a dangerous aura. "Only with this sword can you enter here. You must defeat me before you can leave here."
"There's a strange aura about you, as if you're an old friend of mine... Come on, show me your strongest side, I won't show you mercy."
key?
Before Qian Lin had time to think about what this sentence meant, he had to focus all his attention on the woman in front of him who started fighting without a word.
The opponent's strength is at the mid-stage Grandmaster level, and her combat power can be roughly judged from the aura she reveals... Tsk, she's a bit difficult to deal with.
This woman's strength seemed to be just at the upper limit of Qian Lin's strength, and then raised it a little bit higher.
It's difficult to deal with, but it can't make Qian Lin feel desperate.
It gives people a feeling that maybe they can really give it a try.
"Is this the so-called secret realm trial?" Qian Lin drew out her usual spiritual sword from her waist, and then placed the Dragon Emperor Sword in her other hand. The Xuanming spiritual energy was completely stimulated by her. In this battle, she must use all her strength, otherwise, there would be no possibility of victory.
The woman did not answer Qian Lin's words. After Qian Lin was ready, she immediately launched an attack.
Vines covered with poisonous thorns emerged from under Qian Lin's feet and went straight to wrap around Qian Lin's feet.
"You wood element people love this kind of method so much! I won't fall for it!" Qian Lin, who had been on guard against this move, dodged the attacking vines with a small jump, then swung his double swords and cut the vines into pieces in an instant.
This Dragon Emperor Sword is quite useful, a thought flashed through Qian Lin's mind, and then she was almost hit in the face by the green poisonous gas that sprayed out from the cut surface of the vine.
If she hadn't used the Xuanming spiritual energy to condense a shield in front of her in time, she would have been disfigured by the poisonous gas.
Looking at the bumpy surface of the ice shield corroded by poison gas, Qian Lin's face looked a little bad. This opponent's methods were really insidious.
While releasing the poison gas attack, the woman's other attacks also came towards Qian Lin from all directions. The first was the sharp blades made of petals of various colors. Qian Lin hurriedly dropped the ice shield and swung a few sword energies at these blades before he got rid of them.
But after the petal blades were dealt with, those annoying poisonous vines reappeared and began to attack, while the woman's body raised her hands and began to gather spiritual energy, and it was obvious that she was preparing for some powerful spiritual skills.
Qian Lin wanted to interrupt the woman's power accumulation, but those poisonous vines were like insects on her tarsal bones and did not give her any chance. If she wanted to interrupt the woman, she could only ignore these vines for the time being.
But if he did that, he would really get hurt. Just looking at the power of the poisonous gas just now, Qian Lin felt that if he was hit by these vines, the result would most likely not be any good.
But she couldn't just ignore the spiritual skill over there, it was almost driving her crazy.
Swish!
Finally, she found a gap while dealing with the vines and swung two sword energies at the woman, hoping to disrupt her movements.
But the woman was obviously prepared for this situation. Before the sword energy flew in front of her, the soil under her feet suddenly surged, and several thick vines emerged from the ground, blocking Qian Lin's sword energy for her.
At the same time, her spiritual skills were also released. She threw the ball of light in her hand into the sky. The ball of light exploded in the air and turned into spikes flashing green fluorescence, all aimed at Qian Lin.
Qian Lin, who was locked by a large number of poisonous stingers, changed his expression. He gave up struggling with the vines at his feet without hesitation and directly called out his flying sword and started running away.
The poisonous stings released by the woman were not polite at all, falling towards Qian Lin like raindrops. Qian Lin swung the two swords in his hands tightly, and only then did he barely save himself from the rain of poisonous stings.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed a flaw in the woman.
After releasing the rain of poisonous thorns, the woman seemed to think that these thorns could suppress Qian Lin, so she stood where she was and started to read the next spiritual skill.
But she didn't expect that Qian Lin could get rid of the poisonous rain so quickly. Now she was in the awkward situation where her spiritual skills were halfway released.
Although there are still some vines protecting him, for Qian Lin, this is the best chance to fight back after being suppressed for a long time!
Never mind, just rush up and fight her!
Without the slightest hesitation, Qian Lin seized the opportunity and rushed towards the woman at the fastest speed on the flying sword. The vines along the way wanted to use their bodies to stop Qian Lin, but Qian Lin, who was determined to achieve victory, directly used his strongest attack. Two high-level spirit swords were swung together, and the Xuanming spiritual energy was stimulated to the extreme. The seemingly hard vines were like a piece of thin paper under such an attack.
Qian Lin couldn't stay for even a moment, and these vines were broken into pieces under Qian Lin's double swords.
The woman had given up on accumulating power in her spiritual skills at this moment. A thin, poisonous whip appeared in her hand and she swung it fiercely at Qian Lin.
"You don't seem to be very skilled in whip techniques." Qian Lin, who had already rushed to the woman's side, faced the woman's counterattack with the long whip, but showed a relaxed expression.
She had just been completely suppressed by this woman's long-range firepower, but her close combat ability seemed to have a bit of a problem.
A classic long-range combat character.
Although the woman's close combat ability was not as good as her long-range ability, Qian Lin still felt tremendous pressure when fighting. After all, the opponent's strength was much higher than hers, and the gap in technology was completely made up by her cultivation.
After a fierce fight of more than ten moves, Qian Lin finally found an opportunity and slashed the woman's shoulder with a sword.
clang!
Feeling the huge recoil force coming from the hilt of the sword, Qian Lin's pupils shrank. It's bad!
Why are this woman's shoulders so stiff?
Before she could finish her sigh, the woman seized upon Qian Lin's stiffness caused by the recoil and slapped him on the left shoulder, sending him flying.
The force of this palm was so great that Qian Lin was knocked out of the sea of flowers and smashed several large trees before he finally came to a stop.
"Cough cough..." Lying on the ground, feeling the tingling pain coming from all parts of his body, Qian Lin showed a helpless expression.
Who could have thought that this guy's skin could be so tough? She used all her strength in that sword strike, but the opponent was not hurt at all, and she was instead numbed by the recoil.
"Can you continue fighting?" The woman walked to Qian Lin and leaned over to ask.
"I guess it's no use. I can't seem to move."
"Recover and continue later." The woman stretched out her finger and tapped Qian Lin lightly. A green light surged out from her vagina and rushed into Qian Lin's body.
The tingling sensation in the body immediately subsided, and Qian Lin was surprised to find that his body was recovering at an extremely fast speed.
No, it wasn't just her body that recovered, the spiritual energy she had just consumed was also restored.
It wasn't long before she was back on her feet and fighting again.
So this trial... actually gives you multiple opportunities to challenge?
"Are you recovered?" The woman who had returned to her old position in the center of the sea of flowers looked at Qian Lin who was walking back into the sea of flowers carrying two swords, and asked expressionlessly.
She recovered, but if she continued to fight like she did just now, her chances of winning didn't seem great. Qian Lin scratched his head and said to the woman, "How hard is your body? I can't even cut you with my full strength."
"It's harder than you think. As for how to defeat me, that's the problem you need to solve." The woman did not ignore Qian Lin's question. Perhaps she was satisfied with Qian Lin's performance just now, so her voice softened a little.
Qian Lin nodded after pondering. She probably understood the difficulty of this trial. First of all, this woman was good at long-range fire coverage. If she wanted to defeat her, she had to rush to her side and engage in close combat with her.
Then, this woman's body was extremely hard, so hard that he couldn't hurt her even if he used all his strength, so he needed to find the weaknesses in her body.
"Huh, it's quite difficult." Qian Lin took a deep breath and nodded at the woman. Since there was no threat of death, there was nothing to be afraid of!
"Come on, I'm ready!"
So, a few minutes later, Qian Lin was slapped away by the woman again like before, and crashed into several large trees in a mess.
This time she chose to chop the woman's neck, and the result was the same as last time, like using a blunt knife to chop a piece of extremely hard steel. The recoil directly caused Qian Lin's spirit sword to fly out of her hand.
She herself managed to dodge the woman's first counterattack, and then used the Dragon King Sword to stalemate with the woman for a while before she was defeated due to lack of spiritual energy.
In fact, if it was an ordinary grandmaster-level opponent, Qian Lin would have won long ago, but this woman's physical strength is simply not at the level of a normal grandmaster. Qian Lin has reason to suspect that this guy's physical strength is already on par with that of a Venerable.
This is really cheating. Asking a half-step grandmaster like me to find a way to break the body defense of the Venerable is really making things difficult for me.
262. Body Tempering
Ding! Snap! Ding! Snap! …
Qian Lin had forgotten how many times she had been knocked flying and how many pieces of wood she had broken. She only felt that her body seemed to be getting more and more agile, and she could deal with the woman for longer and longer periods of time. After each recoil of an attack, she would no longer fall into a long state of stiffness and be at the mercy of others like before.
Without her noticing, the drop of basalt blood in the snowflake necklace hanging on her neck was shrinking at an extremely slow speed.
Every time she recovered from an injury, a trace of blood would seep out from the necklace and enter Qian Lin's body, subtly strengthening her body.
Finally, after countless failures, Qian Lin slashed the woman's neck with his sword, leaving a faint white mark on her.
Although such a wound would not even break the skin for an ordinary person, it was already a rare victory for Qian Lin.
Then she was slapped away again, and rolled out of the sea of flowers backwards like countless times before.
"That's quite some progress, but it's not enough to get past me." The woman summoned vines to lift Qian Lin out of the woods. While treating her wounds, she said, "No matter how hard you try, you can't break my body."
Pointing to the almost invisible white mark on her neck, the woman said calmly, "You need to find another way instead of stupidly running into a dead end."
Qian Lin nodded silently. She also realized this. Her attack power was definitely much stronger than before, but compared to this woman's physical defense, her attack power was still not enough.
As the woman said, this is a dead end and forcing it won't work.
Come to think of it, I still don’t seem to know what the specific requirements are for passing this trial.
"May I ask what the requirements are for passing your level? Do I have to defeat you?"
The woman nodded. The condition for the success of the trial was simple: defeating her incarnation. "As long as you can destroy this body, the trial will be completed."
Destroy this body... As expected, the woman in front of him was not the real body of this powerful man. Her strength was definitely not just the mid-stage Grandmaster that she showed in front of him. There was a high probability that she was an extremely powerful Venerable!
"What's your name?"
"When you pass the trial, you will know." The woman showed an unnatural smile and picked up Qian Lin, who had fully recovered, from the ground. "Go on, we still have a lot of time."
……
"You are really cruel. If the other kid saw it, he would be heartbroken." Looking at the image projected in the black ice mirror, the white-haired immortal leaned on his seat and said in a rather ungraceful manner to the green-haired immortal who was tinkering with something not far away.
"You won't die anyway, and didn't you agree?" The immortal Ju Mang raised his eyes and glanced at Xuan Ming with a hint of anger in his eyes.
You were the one who shouted the loudest during the previous discussion, but now you are saying such sarcastic words. It's really inconsistent and really annoying.
If I didn't have important things to do, I would at least let this guy know that he shouldn't talk nonsense.
"There's no way. If you want to complete your plan, she's not strong enough right now... I still think you're a little too impatient. Wouldn't the success rate be higher if they become stronger?"
"Time waits for no one. Everything has been planned out. All we have to do next is follow the procedure and there won't be any problems." Immortal Ju Mang sighed softly. The translucent screen in front of her showed a girl lying in a green pool with her eyes closed. It was Ye Qiuhan who had disappeared before.
Blue arcs of electricity flashed around her and penetrated into the girl's body, causing her to reveal a painful expression.
Xuanming raised his eyes and saw the scene in front of Ju Mang, and shook his head helplessly.
Compared with this guy Ju Mang, she was actually the kind one. She would not let Qian Lin undergo body tempering like this. When she found out that Qian Lin could not withstand the pressure of body tempering at that time, she immediately interrupted the body tempering process and re-sealed the remaining Xuanwu essence and blood.
And now Ju Mang intends to make this little girl's body tempering completely in one go.
"Are you two ready? I'm almost ready. I can buy you about a quarter of an hour." Along with a ray of starlight, a purple-haired girl wearing a star robe walked into the hall. When she saw the two immortals who were peeking at the lower world, her expression suddenly changed, "I say, you two, be a little more serious!"
If he could defeat these two bastards, Siming would definitely throw the ruler with the pattern of the stars in his hand in the faces of these two slackers.
"There's nothing we can do. We can't interfere with the lower world right now, so we can only watch from here, right?" Ju Mang looked up at Siming, her face full of helplessness. Then she changed the subject and put the blame on Xuanming, "And you have to blame Xuanming for this. It's her fault that the little girl she fell in love with is so useless and hasn't even passed the trial yet."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Ming frowned, "She is only a half-step master now! When you were a half-step master, could you do what she did? Ask yourself with your conscience, are you forcing someone to do something against their will?"
My plan was originally well planned, but this Ju Mang insisted on interfering, and now he wants to pass the blame on to others. He is so shameless!
She felt a little distressed when she saw Qian Lin, who was in this cycle of being seriously injured and recovering.
Ju Mang, you are such a beast!
"Well, wouldn't it be a pity not to seize such a rare opportunity?" Ju Mang's eyes wandered and changed the subject. She really couldn't do such a thing when she was a half-step master. "But she has a magic sword in her hand, and her comprehension is also very good. I believe she will definitely get enlightenment."
"Instead of expecting her to suddenly realize something, I might as well send her a message..."
"Xuanming, I warn you not to act rashly. If you take action now, I won't be able to conceal the secret." Upon hearing the words of the immortal Xuanming, the purple-haired girl Siming immediately became anxious.
If Xuanming interferes with the lower world at this time, the Heavenly Dao will become alert, and then Siming's preparations will be basically useless.
Siming's original plan was to take advantage of Tiandao's inattention and hit him hard from behind, knocking him unconscious for a quarter of an hour.
But if the Heavenly Dao is alert, it is hard to say whether this stick can hit it.
"Don't worry, I was just saying that... Hey, did she have an epiphany?" Xuan Ming laughed and then turned her head to take a look. Her eyes widened when she saw Qian Lin's condition in the Xuan Bing Mirror.
Siming's eyes suddenly changed when he looked at Xuanming. The expression on his slightly childish face was obvious to everyone, "You really didn't send her a message?"
"Don't look at me, it really wasn't me who did it. She really figured it out on her own. Hey, this is really strange. Ju Mang, are these the memories you gave her?"
