Su Bai's words not only silenced Xiao Zhang, but also the eyes of other trainers who looked at their test subjects with anxiety.
Wang Tao stared at the road full of blazing flames and said, "Let's... go up?"
Liu Yunlan raised his head slightly, and the steps were spreading in the fire, and the end could not be seen at a glance.
"How can this be……"
That's Emperor Yan's fire!
Charizard's fire can melt stones and create magma. As a second-level god, Emperor Yan is no weaker than Charizard.
If you walk up here, you're looking for death!
"Actually, it's not just fire."
Su Bai glanced helplessly at the corner of his eyes, spread his hands and said: "The trials of the other three groups are a means for Yan Emperor Lei Gong and others to select those who meet the requirements."
"However, even if these conditions are met, if you want to achieve the goal of resurrecting the dead, you must go through this real thorny road..."
"Moreover, there is more than just flames on this road..."
As if in response to Su Bai's words, thunder suddenly broke out above the flames, and a thunder struck down!
On the steps, terrifying and dazzling electricity began to flow everywhere.
And higher up, the faint appearance of vast water waves undoubtedly proved that Suicune was not idle either.
Along the way, you will not only have to face Entei's fire, Raikou's electricity, but even Suicune's suffocating water!
"How can this be passable!"
Ouyang Zuo patted his bald head and said angrily: "What's the difference between taking this road and committing suicide!"
Even with his reckless character, he knew that he would definitely die if he set foot on this road.
What kind of trial is this?
I'm afraid this is not the road to death!
"Actually, it's not as exaggerated as you think."
Su Bai sighed. If possible, he wouldn't want to throw this burden on the trainers.
"The three mythical beasts can be said to symbolize three innocent emotions."
"The enthusiasm of the Fire Emperor, the tenacity of the Thunder Emperor, and the purity of Sui Lord who tolerates all things and treats all things kindly."
"If you want to see King Feng put forward the request to resurrect Pei Jingguo, just passing the trial is not enough."
"If you don't walk through this road full of thorns, you won't even be able to see the figure of the Phoenix King..."
"but……"
Su Bai paused for a moment, looked at the silent Xiao Zhang and said, "The flames here are certainly not the flames when Emperor Yan fought."
"The intensity of the flame will be maintained at the bottom line that you can accept. In other words, you will not be directly burned to death."
"But if you want to walk this road, the pain involved... is also the limit of human beings."
"This is a road that spans life and death. If you want to go up, it's not that easy..."
Ding Yue frowned and hesitated: "Even if you won't be burned to death directly, if you have to endure the limit of human beings... you won't be able to bear it..."
Even when they had to face the trial of a divine beast, they didn't hesitate so much.
But this road is obviously really testing the "limits" of human beings!
Although Su Bai said it lightly, how could the word "limit" be so easy to use?
Extreme pain will directly burn people's sanity!
Everyone has a thought in their hearts, but no one dares to say it out loud.
However, at this moment, several white lights suddenly lit up among the crowd.
Lucario, Wei Li, and Caracara were put into the Poké Ball with a look of astonishment on their faces.
Xiao Zhang stuffed the elf balls into Su Bai's hand one by one, and said seriously: "Mr. Su, I'll leave these elves to you."
As he spoke, he stabilized Pei Jingguo on his back, took a look at the endless long steps, and stepped into the fire without hesitation!
"Zizzizizi!!"
The moment he stepped into the sea of fire, the flames mercilessly devoured Xiao Zhang's feet.
The continuous sizzling sound made everyone frown!
Xiao Zhang's vision went dark at this moment. This magical flame was not only burning his body.
It's even burning his spirit!
This road of trials was a double blow to his body and spirit!
The shoes made of special materials melted almost instantly. Xiao Zhang's bare feet stepped on the hot steps. The flames burned mercilessly, and his skin instantly curled inch by inch!
Emperor Yan's flame was stuck at the limit of Xiao Zhang's body just right!
Xiao Zhang's expression instantly became extremely distorted. However, amidst the terrifying flames, he still stretched out his other foot silently and stepped onto the second step with a ferocious expression!
And then, a magical scene happened.
The foot that left the step continued to grow new skin in an instant.
However, the moment this foot stepped onto the second step, it was once again burnt to a crisp by the flames!
Seeing this scene, the trainers couldn't bear it anymore.
Wang Tao's eyes were about to burst and he said: "Come down! Xiao Zhang, come down quickly! This is not a project that humans can challenge and complete!"
Everyone else figured it out.
The temperature of the flames on the steps is extremely high, and it can "disable" Xiao Zhang's feet in an instant!
However, the moment Xiao Zhang's feet left the steps, there was another magical force that healed Xiao Zhang's feet like a dead tree rejuvenating.
In other words, every step Xiao Zhang takes, he will repeatedly experience this extreme pain!
"Even if he really succeeds in reaching the top, Xiao Zhang will be driven crazy by the repeated torture!"
"How can this road... be completed!"
"Xiao Zhang! Come down quickly!"
Ding Yue's tears were dripping down, and she shouted desperately at Xiao Zhang, who had just walked two or three steps!
This kind of pain is heartbreaking even just looking at it!
If the price of rescuing Pei Jingguo is to completely destroy Xiao Zhang, then Pei Jingguo himself will not agree!
The other trainers were also shaken at this time.
There is no problem in letting them undergo the trial. Even if it is extremely difficult to escape death, as long as they can save Pei Jingguo, it is nothing.
But no matter what, it’s only once!
And Xiao Zhang...the endless steps were so densely packed that every step he took was extremely painful.
A normal person would go crazy even if he takes just one or two steps, let alone finishing the walk!
Even Su Bai couldn't bear it at this time. If he hadn't been unable to take action, he would have gone directly to Feng Wang to get the holy ashes. Even if he had to make a big fuss with Feng Wang, he would admit it!
"cannot……"
A faint murmur came from Xiao Zhang's mouth.
He turned around, and in the sea of fire, his face was tortured with pain, but his eyes were terrifyingly bright!
"Can not give up!"
"The trial... I leave it to you..."
"I... take a step first!"
After saying these few words, Xiao Zhang seemed to have exhausted all his energy.
Amidst the crackling sound of flames, Xiao Zhang's figure gradually disappeared into the sea of fire.
Except for the occasional heavy footsteps that came with great difficulty, Xiao Zhang no longer had any other energy to express his determination!
Even if he died, he would still carry Pei Jingguo to see King Feng!
