……
Time passed minute by minute, and the trial soon came to an end.
There are less than ten minutes left.
Dongfang Qiaoyue was still five steps away from Chu Qianjun. She really wanted to run ahead of Chu Qianjun and take the first place.
The Chu family and the Dongfang family are both one of the Eight Great Families, so the outcome between her and Chu Qianjun is naturally very important.
Neither she nor Chu Qianjun would worry about entering the Xuyun Sword Sect. What they had to do was to take first place. Apart from first place, everything else was meaningless.
Dongfang Qiaoyue really wanted to surpass Chu Qianjun directly, but an illusion appeared in front of her eyes, and the illusion became more and more real.
She saw a fire.
A blazing fire.
The flames engulfed everything in the Dongfang family, and the sounds of crying and clashing swords were everywhere.
Blood and swords dyed the entire night sky red, and the demon cultivators' wanton laughter was particularly harsh amid the crying and shouting.
She saw the scene where Xiang Ming took out her father's heart with his hands when he was being killed by the old devil.
Shi Xiangming was the one who loved to reveal his heart the most among the demon cultivators. After he did so, he looked at Dongfang Qiaoyue with a cruel expression and said with a smile, "I found you."
Dongfang Qiaoyue trembled all over.
She was completely unable to realize that this was an illusion and all her feelings were real.
Dongfang Qiaoyue seemed to be swallowed up by the illusion.
Chu Qianjun, who was standing at a higher position, was not much better than her.
Dongfang Qiaoyue was chasing him, so of course he wouldn't stop.
He saw the face that disgusted him again.
"You deserve to die."
The man in the illusion looked at Chu Qianjun and rushed towards him.
Chu Qianjun rarely showed a look of fear. He wanted to escape, but in the end he endured it and barely resisted Wen Qiu's attack.
After some time, he finally got fed up.
A mocking smile appeared on his face, and he said arrogantly: "You can't stop me."
After saying this, Chu Qianjun slashed down with his sword, and the sword light flashed.
Wenqiu was split into two, and the illusion gradually dissipated.
Chu Qianjun was all smiles, knowing that he had won the trial and the others were merely stepping stones.
He has always been number one, and everyone else is just trash in his eyes.
Whether in terms of will or strength, he is the first this time.
He won this trial!
But he heard exclamations.
I heard exclamations from the bottom of the mountain.
The noises were so loud that he couldn't ignore them.
He thought those people were cheering for his first place, but he immediately realized that something was wrong.
The illusion dissipated, and he saw the man in front of him.
How could it be him?
Chu Qianjun was stunned.
Because he saw Xu Chen.
The man he looked down upon.
Under his close scrutiny, Xu Chen didn't even look at him, and whispered leisurely, "Just keep this speed."
10. I'm sorry for not letting Xu Chen use his full strength.
"Just keep this pace."
Xu Chen's figure in the floating shadow bead was like a demon in front of everyone. None of them had expected that in less than ten minutes, Xu Chen would surpass Chu Qianjun.
They watched Xu Chen rise all the way.
Ever since Master Xia Jian appeared in Xu Chen's illusion, many people chose to watch Xu Chen. Later, when Xu Chen surpassed Liu Xi, even more people came to watch.
It can be said that nearly ten percent of the people in Xuyun Sword Sect were watching Xu Chen and paying attention to his performance.
Xu Chen moved up at a speed visible to the naked eye, surpassing the veiled woman who was the first in the second echelon, and then a few minutes later surpassed Quan Mincai, who was favored by the great elder Wei Longxian.
And now, Xu Chen has surpassed Dongfang Qiaoyue and Chu Qianjun, who is ranked first.
Before today, if you said that someone could surpass Dongfang Qiaoyue and Chu Qianjun in the trial, people would just think you were crazy.
It is true that many people are looking forward to dark horses, but dark horses also have to abide by the basic laws.
If the gap in strength and talent is too big, how can we win?
Dongfang Qiaoyue and Chu Qianjun are not simply more talented than ordinary disciples, they also have the resources of the entire family.
Only the seven major sects and the royal family can compare with the eight major families in terms of resources. Even those famous strong men in the world find it difficult to surpass the eight major families in terms of resources.
So almost everyone thought that the first person to take the trial would be Chu Qianjun or Dongfang Qiaoyue, and there would not be a third person.
But the appearance of Xu Chen broke their cognition.
Xu Chen surpassed Chu Qianjun and became the first.
"what happened?"
Such a voice appeared in the crowd, and the speaker's eyes were full of astonishment, as if he could not believe what was happening before his eyes.
Many people rubbed their eyes and found that they were not mistaken. They didn’t understand why the boy who was timid at the beginning suddenly caught up with them?
It was obvious that Chu Qianjun and Dongfang Qiaoyue were moving slower as they went up, so why was he walking so fast?
They saw with their own eyes Xu Chen walking upwards, and his speed did not stop at all, as if he was completely unaffected by the weight and the illusion.
The burden and illusion were completely invisible to him, as if he was detached from everything.
No one is as relaxed as him. From the beginning to now, no one, even in the early stages, is as relaxed as Xu Chen.
Xu Chen came to participate in this trial as leisurely as if he was taking a walk, and from the image projected by the Floating Shadow Pearl, Xu Chen seemed quite relaxed, and even didn't want to look at Chu Qianjun any more.
It seems like this is a matter of course and there is no need to spend time savoring it.
"Is he... so strong?"
"Who is this guy? Even Chu Qianjun is not his match?"
"It looked like he was taking it easy, like he wasn't even using his full strength."
There were constant exclamations from the foot of the mountain, and the Great Elder Wei Longxian was so shocked that he was speechless for a while.
He originally thought that Quan Min, whom he favored, might be able to fight against Dongfang Qiaoyue and Chu Qianjun, but he didn't expect Xu Chen to suddenly appear halfway.
He was clearly so far behind before, but he actually surpassed Chu Qianjun?
Was he just acting before?
Wei Longxian finally understood why Sect Master Xia would not let Xu Chen leave as soon as he arrived. Perhaps Sect Master Xia had already realized how powerful Xu Chen was.
Zheng Qiyun didn't expect this to happen. Xu Chen was worried about the illusion just now, but now he is not afraid at all.
He looked very relaxed, as if he didn't take the trial seriously at all.
The other elders never expected that such a dark horse would emerge.
No matter who it is, they are more optimistic about Dongfang Qiaoyue and Chu Qianjun. They didn't expect that someone could surpass them this time.
"However, there is still some time. The gap is not that big right now, and the outcome is still to be determined."
The tenth elder Yun Feng still felt that Xu Chen might not be that powerful, and the outcome was still undecided.
There are about five minutes left.
It seems that Chu Qianjun has also escaped from the illusion. Seeing Xu Chen in front of him, he will definitely use all his strength to overtake him.
"It has ended."
A voice floated into Yunfeng's ears. The voice was very soft, but it could be heard from far away.
The person who spoke was the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal who was a hundred feet away.
Plum Blossom Sword Immortal Feng Qing'er seemed to have seen through everything and said quietly, "My heart is in turmoil."
The person she was referring to was of course not Xu Chen, but Chu Qianjun.
……
On the immortal ladder.
"You...why are you here?"
Chu Qianjun looked at Xu Chen's profile and realized who the man in front of him was. He was extremely surprised.
Logically speaking, someone like him would not remember Xu Chen.
But Chu Qianjun remembered Xu Chen as the first person who wanted to escape from here.
He mocked Xu Chen at that time and was warned by Master Xia Jian, so he remembered it clearly.
But why is he here?
No matter how hard Chu Qianjun thought about it, he couldn't understand why Xu Chen was here.
This person is obviously a coward, why is he in front of him?
Wasn't he afraid to enter the trial before?
Chu Qianjun had never seen Xu Chen in the front row before, and he couldn't believe that Xu Chen could suddenly surpass him.
He had previously thought that Dongfang Qiaoyue from the Dongfang family could threaten him. He also knew about Quan Mincai mentioned by Wei Longxian, and even wondered if the mysterious veiled woman in the second echelon might be a hidden means of some big family.
But he really didn't think it would be Xu Chen.
When Chu Qianjun walked here, he knew very well how difficult it was to climb each step. He simply could not climb the steps as leisurely as Xu Chen.
Is this an illusion?
Am I afraid that he will take first place?
Chu Qianjun's mind became confused, and he said, "Fake, all fake, you can't surpass me!"
After he finished speaking, he ran towards Xu Chen.
Chu Qianjun had just run up three steps when he saw himself falling down the mountain.
He looked pale.
When he came to his senses, Xu Chen was already standing ten steps higher than him.
And every step he took was so difficult.
"I'm so tired, let's take a rest."
Xu Chen suddenly stopped and stood still.
His words were so leisurely.
He didn't even want to turn around and look at Chu Qianjun.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, fake, all fake!"
Chu Qianjun felt humiliated and rushed upwards desperately, but found that no matter how he ran, he could not reach where Xu Chen was.
No matter how he moved forward, he couldn't get close to Xu Chen.
Xu Chen's height is a reality that he can never reach.
As the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal said, his mind was completely confused and he was completely trapped in an illusion.
On the other side, Dongfang Qiaoyue came back to her senses.
