There were not enough monsters to kill, but the disciples from both factions did not start killing directly. On average, each person had about five blood spirit beads. The disciples who had a good relationship would help each other, and those who had a bad relationship would buy them at exorbitant prices.
After one day, only 30% of the disciples who still needed the Blood Spirit Pearl were there.
As expected, the seventy or eighty people who needed the Blood Spirit Beads began to look for prey. Of course, their prey could not be third-order monsters, but other disciples.
As for the disciples who had enough blood spirit beads, they hid them directly, including Lin Xingliao and three others.
As time went by, more people discovered that this first trial was on the branches of a huge sacred tree.
Every branch of that sacred tree is like a small forest, and every leaf seems to be a book recording a piece of history.
Everyone felt horrified. Looking at the endless dense forest in front of them, they couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness. The dense forest they saw was just moss on the giant trees, and the monsters and the disciples who participated in the promotion of the secret realm were more like fleas on the moss.
When they were in it, they seemed to be submerged in a green ocean, surrounded by a rich breath of life. Looking up, the huge sacred tree reaches into the sky, with a wide trunk and lush branches and leaves.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, rolling up layers of green waves, and everyone's hearts also rippled.
Those disciples who had enough Blood Spirit Orbs actually felt at ease. They gathered in groups and took out their most powerful formations. They also set up many traps near the formations, including talismans, spiritual stones and scrolls. No savings at all.
And those disciples who don't have enough Blood Spirit Pearls are fighting on their own, and the warmth and warmth of people are nothing more than this.
They know that this first trial has just begun, and what they have to face is not only the monsters and dangers, but also the fear and confusion in their own hearts.
Everyone also gradually discovered that the monsters closer to the trunk were weaker, and the monsters closer to the ends of the branches were stronger.
The disciples came to the conclusion that the sacred tree has its own laws, and powerful monsters cannot get close to the trunk of the sacred tree.
Based on this conclusion, those disciples who did not have enough Blood Spirit Orbs came up with a bold idea: to go to other tree trunks to hunt low-level monsters.
It can be said that if the disciples who came to participate in the trial were to compete fairly in the ring, they would actually be about the same strength.
Of course, the three of them, Lin Xingliao, and those who were practicing against the Shi cultivator were special cases, and naturally there were other powerful people as well.
But these are special cases, and not ten of them can be found among three hundred people.
Since most of the disciples are about the same strength, no one will benefit from a fight. Even if someone fights, the people watching on the side will reap the benefits.
Therefore, for those disciples who do not have enough Blood Spirit Orbs, it is the best choice to go to other tree trunks to hunt low-level monsters.
Lin Xingliao and the others had enough Blood Spirit Beads. At this time, the three of them were bored. All three of them had a tendency to make breakthroughs and began to meditate and practice.
But it is naturally impossible to break through here. It took Lin Xingliao nearly a year to break through from the early Nascent Realm to the late Nascent Realm.
The same is naturally true for Ouyang Yu and Su Jiuyue, but the accumulated spiritual energy will not be wasted.
If there is no breakthrough, the extra spiritual energy of the practitioners will refine the physical body and improve the physical realm.
The physical body can be refined all the time without any breakthrough. The monks themselves don't actually know what state the physical body has reached.
For example, Lin Xingliao, he didn't even know what state his physical body was in. He only knew that he was a physical practitioner who had been practicing since childhood.
In short, Lin Xingliao and the others now neither have blood spirit beads to refine, nor do they have much time to practice skills. To put it bluntly, they are a bit bored.
So, Lin Xingliao took Ouyang Yu and Su Jiuyue and followed the group of disciples who didn't have enough blood spirit beads.
Of course Lin Xingliao heard that those people wanted to hunt in other tree trunks, which was of course a good thing. At present, Lin Xingliao had no resistance to the Blood Spirit Pearl, and continuing to absorb the improvement in Lin Xingliao's cultivation level would be huge.
Ouyang Yu and Su Jiuyue naturally agreed. Ouyang Yu wanted to hoard some blood spirit beads to wait until she broke through. There was no need for her physical body to improve too much.
Su Jiuyue wanted to use the blood spirit beads to refine her body. Her thoughts were impure and she was afraid of dying at Lin Xingliao's feet, so she wanted to improve her physical strength. She didn't need to increase it too much, as long as she wouldn't be beaten. It would be fine if Lin Xingliao fell apart. This is not a joke. There is a real precedent. There are indeed people who were physically cultivated alive...
In short, this can be considered as a precautionary measure.
The three of them followed those people and reached other branches safely. When they saw the low-level monsters that could be seen everywhere, they were ecstatic.
Lin Xingliao and three others immediately joined the team that hunted the monsters.
There were an extremely large number of those monsters. It was obvious that the owner of the secret realm had limited the number of monsters on the branches used for the trial.
Lin Xingliao was no longer polite, and rushed into the jungle with a piece of spiritual jade in his mouth. He even summoned the third-level superior treasure furnace that Wu Chen gave him. When he got a blood spirit bead, he threw it away. Went to the furnace to refine it.
The treasure furnace was suspended above Lin Xingliao's head, with blood flowing out of it continuously.
Lin Xingliao's body was so hot from activity that he could easily absorb the blood energy. The blood energy was absorbed by Lin Xingliao as soon as it floated out. The strength of his physical body was constantly increasing, and who knew to what extent it had reached.
If he had to give a standard, Lin Xingliao would probably be those who are in a state of adverse physical cultivation. At the end of physical training, you will have both physical and mental rest.
Using the physical body to strengthen the meridians is increasing the foundation of Dharma cultivation, and nourishing the physical body with spiritual energy is sublimating the upper limit of physical cultivation.
The double rest of body method is similar to the harmony of yin and yang, which means that they complement each other.
There is no doubt that Lin Xingliao's father helped him win at the starting line.
The giant sword was waving in Lin Xingliao's hand, blue fire flashed, and the screams of wild beasts in the forest were endless.
Su Jiuyue didn't show any weakness. She imitated Lin Xingliao by holding a spiritual jade in her mouth and used her flying magic weapon, which was a pair of wings that sparkled with fantasy brilliance. Although it was only a second-level magic weapon, the wings were very gorgeous and looked like a third-level or fourth-level magic weapon.
Sure enough, the fairy's magic weapon must first be beautiful...
Su Jiuyue's main target was the monsters in the air. Lin Xingliao couldn't catch the monsters on the ground. She used the Jiro Golden Wheel to wave it in the air, imprisoning the monsters whenever they encountered them, and then sacrificed the The air-breaking shuttle quickly kills the imprisoned monsters.
Su Jiuyue followed suit, and he also used his second-level alchemy furnace to directly refine the harvested blood spirit beads into blood and transport them to his body.
In this way, the two of them had spiritual jade to replenish their spiritual energy and blood to replenish their physical strength and restore their wounds. They had no scruples and slaughtered monsters in this free world, enjoying themselves.
Flesh and blood were flying in the jungle, and the monster beasts were making shrill screams all the time. These sounds came and went, like a grand symphony.
Ouyang Yu is very good at dealing with cultivators, but not so good at dealing with monsters. Her only physical training puppet, the gorilla, has been torn to pieces by the Netherworld Wolf before.
Of course, in order to reduce the consumption of puppets, she followed Lin Xingliao and Su Jiuyue to pick up the leaks.
Lin Xingliao's giant sword stained with blue flames would take away the lives of many low-level monsters with one swing, but there would always be some monsters that were only scratched by the flames, panting on the ground half-dead.
Ouyang Yu then controlled her last two combat puppets to collect the blood spirit beads.
In this secret realm, Ouyang Yu could not find the materials to repair the puppets, and her inventory was exhausted. The puppets were being used one by one. Ouyang Yu may not take action after using up the combat puppets. She also has a life-saving puppet, but she won't use it easily.
Ouyang Yu sighed: "This time I go out to the secret realm, I must ask this couple to find a few puppets for me! Fortunately, there are some things to gain from the secret realm, otherwise I would have been a helper in vain."
The last few days were a carnival for all the trial disciples. Only then did these disciples discover why the closer they were to the tree trunk, the greater the chance.
Because people who are close to the tree trunk can quickly go to other tree trunks to hunt low-level monsters to obtain blood spirit beads.
In the last three days, all the disciples have been mobilized. No one is thinking about retaining any strength, and no one is trying to steal someone's magic weapon.
The disciples tried their best to hunt down the low-level monsters. They went crazy and had no reservations. The disciples frantically absorbed the essence of the blood spirit beads to temper their bodies.
Lin Xingliao held a huge sword, and the flames soared, as if he had transformed into a fire dragon, stepping into the void with every step, sweeping everything.
Su Jiuyue danced in the air. The wings she extended shone with fantastic brilliance. Every time she waved, she brought up a shadow, as if a beautiful butterfly was dancing, but wherever she passed, there were flying beasts. fall.
Those flying beasts collapsed into blood spirit beads before they hit the ground and were taken away by Su Jiuyue.
Ouyang Yu followed the two of them and controlled the battle puppet. Every movement was precise. Her puppet seemed to have life. Every time she took a shot, she could accurately attack the half-dead monsters without wasting any time.
The figures of the three people shuttled through the forest, and wherever they went, the monsters retreated away.
The last three days! The last three days! No more misses!
There is no second chance for a person to enter this upgraded secret realm!
…
The last three days finally came to an end, and all the disciples were red-eyed. They experienced the pleasure of massacre for the first time. Everyone was flushed with the pleasure brought by killing.
A group of disciples were still unfinished, but they were still forced to stop. Above the nine heavens, more than two hundred golden lights fell. These disciples took advantage of the golden light and soared to unknown heights.
The disciples were all exhausted, but their faces were filled with excitement and satisfaction.
"Is this the real reward of the trial?" A disciple whispered.
"Happy! Hurry!"
"I will definitely break through the realm when I go out! There is hope for condensing pills! This is the opportunity to step into the reverse realm! It's so fun!"
…
Lin Xingliao and Su Jiuyue were also illuminated by the golden light, while Ouyang Yu was sucked into the golden light where Su Jiuyue was.
Perhaps Ouyang Yu was regarded as Ouyang Yu's spiritual pet by the owner of this secret realm.
The golden light dissipated after it rose to a certain height, and the disciples in the light also disappeared.
When Lin Xingliao opened his eyes again, he found that this was a familiar sight.
This is a solitary cliff. When everyone enters the secret realm of promotion, it is the landing position determined by climbing the ladder on this solitary cliff.
Before these disciples had time to react, the old man's voice sounded again: "The second round of trials is about to begin."
While talking, the familiar ladder appeared in front of everyone.
"One day later, those who are on the ladder to heaven will randomly leave thirty people to enter the next trial, and the rest will die."
Lin Xingliao trembled, what did this mean? After ascending the ladder, thirty people are randomly left to participate in the next trial, and the rest will die!
The old man said this, but how could a group of disciples just wait for the great judgment to come on the ladder to heaven?
Anyone with a little bit of brain will understand that as long as there are only thirty disciples on the mountain, he will be safe!
As for those who can participate in the promotion of the secret realm, there are no ordinary people, and no one can touch the wishes of the master of the secret realm.
Moreover, it is estimated that the old man had a clever calculation and calculated that these cultivators would kill monsters and red eyes in the last few days of the first trial. So, what will happen on the mountain as soon as these words come out?
Big melee!
A big melee between two hundred monks!
In other words, there will be a killing feast before the second trial begins!
Sure enough, after the old man finished speaking, the mountain peak became quiet for a few breaths. These people, like Lin Xingliao, were thinking about the current situation and what they should do.
But the pleasure of killing has not dissipated. After a few breaths of silence, the first buzz of spiritual energy appeared on the quiet mountain peak!
Then, a continuous buzzing of spiritual energy sounded all around.
Lin Xingliao reacted quickly and immediately deployed a seven-star and six-ray array to cover him and Su Jiuyue.
Those disciples had long been furious, and immediately took action upon hearing the old man's words. Suddenly no one climbed the ladder to heaven, because everyone would definitely get angry if they climbed the ladder to heaven.
It seems that these disciples tacitly want to fight to the death directly on this mountain peak until there are still thirty people!
Lin Xingliao's father often participated in chaotic battles in his early years. He told Lin Xingliao: "If you are in chaos, you will protect yourself; if you are wise, you will fight to the end."
This means that when the situation is chaotic, self-preservation must be the first priority, and when the situation becomes clear, take action without hesitation or retreat.
Lin Xingliao had always remembered this lesson, and he didn't expect to use it today.
Lin Xingliao didn't fight anyone, nor did he take advantage of the opportunity to plot against anyone. He didn't even look at the ladder. The foot of the ladder was the hardest hit. In just a moment, more than a dozen disciples were dead and their bodies collapsed. Shrunk into one or two blood spirit beads.
Lin Xingliao and Ouyang Yu are now trying their best to maintain the operation of the formation. At this time, the attack on the formation is actually more violent than when Lin Xingliao was surrounded by hundreds of people!
When hundreds of people surrounded and suppressed Lin Xingliao, those people did not use their full strength. It could be said that they were rowing together.
Now there are two hundred people fighting on the mountain peak. Everyone is furious and they all know that this is going to be a life or death situation for you.
The mountain peak is very empty, like a three-thousand-meter arena, with nowhere to hide or cover.
This is a tough battle!
Many people are fighting in small groups of five or six people, and only a few strong ones are fighting alone.
Lin Xingliao discovered that those who fought alone were more powerful, while those in small groups were like chickens and dogs.
Those who fight in small groups of five or six people are actually weaker than those who fight alone.
Lin Xingliao could see clearly that those who fought alone were very powerful. Even in such a killing feast, they still remained calm and rational. The strength they displayed was far beyond that of those who formed a small group.
He even noticed that those who fought alone were extremely ferocious in the battle, attacking ruthlessly and without scruples, while those who formed small groups cooperated with each other tacitly, but were always timid and always had no scruples in their attacks. There is room.
On this huge mountain peak, two hundred monks were fighting like crazy beasts, and the entire mountain peak was shaken to the point of trembling. Lin Xingliao watched with excitement. He knew that this was the world he wanted, and this was the battle he had always longed for!
If Lin Xingliao had come alone to participate in the Secret Realm of Upgrading, he would have been like those heroes who fight alone and would not dare to carelessly fight in the crowd. How enjoyable it would be!
But there was Su Jiuyue beside Lin Xingliao.
Lin Xingliao and Ouyang Yu maintained the formation, while Su Jiuyue wiped their sweat from the side.
Su Jiuyue suddenly frowned, and she discovered something: "Brother, what are you doing, how can you use the formation scroll? Don't you have three fire roots?"
Ouyang Yu was also confused: "I saw that Fellow Daoist Lin could use formations, and I thought Fellow Daoist Lin had the dual spiritual roots of water and fire."
Lin Xingliao naturally didn't know what was going on: "The fire spirit root can't use the formation?"
Su Jiuyue took out a pamphlet: "Things about spiritual roots are complicated. If you can maintain the formation while reading the scroll, I can show it to you. These are some of my little notes."
Lin Xingliao nodded. He looked at the booklet, and Ouyang Yu also leaned over...
At this time, there was a lot of fighting outside the formation, but it had nothing to do with Lin Xingliao inside the formation.
