At this moment, in addition to the Xiyao family and the Xia family, Fan Yuan from the Fiery Empire camp is Zhou Yang's mortal enemy. In addition, he has also rejected two princes of the empire and has not yet entered the Nine Nethers. In the city, he is surrounded by powerful enemies, and the road ahead is extremely dangerous.
Hundreds of law enforcers surrounded the center of Blackwater Lake in a ring, and Linghu Jun and four others began to form a formation.
Half an hour later, the formation was completed, leaving only eight channels in the middle of the lake within a radius of 1,000 feet. In other words, only eight disciples of the sect can enter at a time.
There is a light formation guarding the outside of the passage, and no one can get close.
At this time, 50,000 to 60,000 people had gathered above the Blackwater Lake, half of whom were young masters undergoing trials, and the other half were the guards they had brought with them.
It was the first time for Zhou Yang to see so many golden elixir masters gathered here. It was really eye-opening.
In fact, this time the number of people is still the smallest. If it were not for the invasion of the Dark Continent, there would be at least hundreds of thousands of trialists in the entire Hezhou continent.
Under the excited and expectant gazes of everyone, waves began to rise in the center of the Blackwater Lake, and the black lake water produced ripples.
As time went by, waves began to rise in the center of the lake, and then a whirlpool formed.
The whirlpool got bigger and bigger, became more and more urgent, and finally turned into a big wave, and the waves began to hit the formation.
"Disciples of the Xingxu Sect, Tianshen Temple, Tianji Taoist Palace, Agni Fire Empire, Dahua Sect, Guxue City, Divine Sword Sect, and Xuantian Ancient Sect enter the formation!" Linghu stood on the formation and shouted loudly shouted.
More than five hundred young masters from the Xingxu Sect were the first to enter the formation. Under the leadership of ten law enforcers, they jumped into the black water whirlpool one after another, followed by the Tianshen Temple and other factions, with varying numbers of people.
Among the hundreds of masters of the Xingxu Sect, Zhou Yang suddenly spotted the figure of the young master Dan Ge. His cultivation level is actually at the peak of the early stage of the Golden Core!
Similarly, Shan Ge also gave Zhou Yang a meaningful look before entering the Black Fire Lake.
This is the second time the two have met.
The two princes led Fan Yuan and others into the whirlpool first. Zhou Yang and Yu'er looked at each other and jumped into the black water lake, followed closely by Bai Lian and Zhang Kai.
The Fire Empire had the largest number of disciples participating in the trial, reaching a thousand. The smallest sect only has a few members, which naturally arouses dissatisfaction among various sects, but the matter has reached this point, and it is on their territory, so there is nothing they can do if they are dissatisfied.
"General Linghu, I, a cultivator from the Zetian Empire, have come hundreds of millions of miles away, and yet we have to be ranked last. How can a gentleman treat guests like this!" The leader of the Zetian Empire said with a gloomy face and a strange voice.
This person was dressed similarly to other cultivators from the Zetian Empire. He wore a large green robe embroidered with turtle-like monsters and a pointed green hat. He stood out among the many sects around him and stood out from the crowd.
"Oh, this fellow Taoist knows this general?" Linghu Jun raised his eyebrows.
"Haha, General Linghu is such a noble man who forgets things! No wonder, we haven't seen each other for fifty years, and the general has been promoted all the way. How can he still remember Liang?" The top-hatted leader of the Zetian Empire laughed and said teasingly.
"Fellow Taoist's surname is Liang..." Linghu Jun was stunned when he heard this and thought about it carefully.
"General Linghu, time is pressing. Let's catch up on old times later. Let the children enter the Blackwater Lake first. By the way, this is the warrant from Prince Xiaoyao. Please read it!" After the old man in the top hat said, he threw away a piece of jade slip. Come over.
Linghu Jun stretched out his hand and glanced at it with his consciousness, but his brows furrowed tightly.
This is indeed King Xiaoyao's order, but why would the prince personally approve cultivators from the overseas empire to come to Jiuyou for trial?
The reason why he ranked the people from the Zetian Empire at the end was to carefully check their identities to prevent cultivators from the Dark Continent from sneaking in. Even if there are no spies mixed in, he will join forces with other forces to keep them out.
But now that there is a warrant from the prince, it will be difficult to handle.
"What? Isn't the warrant wrong?" The old man with a tall hat lowered his face and said with some displeasure.
"That's not true. Huh? Liang...you are General Liang!" Linghu Jun suddenly remembered something and pointed at the old man in the top hat and said tremblingly.
"Hahahaha, your memory is not bad!" General Liang raised his head and laughed.
In fact, speaking of it, this good general was Linghu Jun's senior.
As early as fifty years ago, when he went to the Zetian Empire with King Xiaoyao, General Liang had already entered the Golden Elixir Dzogchen realm for many years. At that time, his cultivation level was only at the late stage of the Golden Elixir, and he was much younger than General Liang.
Now fifty years have passed, and the cultivation of this good general...
Thinking of this, Linghu Jun's heart trembled, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, and at the same time quietly released his spiritual consciousness to check.
At this glance, he was immediately surprised...
Under Linghu Jun's arrangement, hundreds of young masters from the Zetian Empire entered the Blackwater Lake before other sects. This caused dissatisfaction among everyone, but he ignored them.
Next, the remaining disciples from each faction also entered the Blackwater Lake one after another until everyone disappeared, leaving only the leaders of each faction, Linghu Jun, General Liang and others.
"Haha, Blackwater Lake will disappear within a few hours. If you don't mind it, you can go down to the legion station to have a cup of tea and talk about Taoism, and have a short rest. What do you think?" Linghu Jun chuckled, He opened his mouth to invite others, and his attitude towards good generals was even more humble.
"Then I'm sorry." The leaders of the various factions also became interested in General Liang, and were about to find out what was going on. When someone agreed, they also responded one after another.
Zhou Yang plunged into the Black Water Lake, and was instantly pulled downwards by the huge suction force. The endless black water pressed down like the sky and the earth, and the gravity immediately increased sharply.
The vision in the lake was extremely blurry and he couldn't see anything clearly. He could only use all his spiritual consciousness to explore the surroundings. And wherever the spiritual consciousness goes, there are trialists who are swept downwards by the suction force.
He discovered Lao Chi and the others and wanted to get closer, but was pulled downwards by the suction force and could not move forward at all.
Lao Chi and the other three also discovered Zhou Yang, but they couldn't get over either.
The Blackwater Lake seemed to have no bottom. It had been falling for half an hour and had not yet reached the end.
The pressure increased as he went down, and the gravity increased exponentially. Even Zhou Yang's strong body felt strenuous.
This alone can show that ordinary early-stage Jindan cultivators cannot bear such heavy pressure at all, and they must at least reach the peak of the early stage of Jindan.
He couldn't help but worry about the red tiger. After all, it hadn't reached level six yet. Could his body be able to handle it?
His mind hurriedly penetrated into the spirit beast bag, and he saw Bailan chewing the spirit grass leisurely, while Chihu closed his eyes and rested, and did not look exhausted. Zhou Yang was relieved.
Young masters from various sects jumped into the mud like dumplings, and were immediately led to the abyss at the bottom of the lake by the huge attraction.
"Ah..." Finally, after another stick of incense, someone couldn't bear it anymore and began to cry out in pain.
