When He Gu had a hurried fight with the silk-faced girl.

At the Blood Lotus of Time, the people who were persuaded, led by Tian Qian and Jiang Lintian, attacked the protective barrier one after another.

The masked man was among them, and he also cooperated and used some strength.

For a moment, colorful spiritual energy spots mingled and intersected in the starry sky, and there were loud sounds of violent collision of energy.

The movement was so great that it instantly attracted the attention of the testers from other places in the secret realm.

However, despite the prolonged attack, the barrier remained solid and unmovable, showing no signs of being broken.

During this period, the Great Elder of Tianji Pavilion, who was in the bright galaxy at the highest level of the secret realm, suddenly sensed a fleeting wave of energy from the Seven Realms.

When he controlled the secret formation to find out where he was, all he saw was the hurried figure of the woman in black leaving.

Without thinking too much, he quickly focused back on the situation at the Blood Lotus.

As time passed little by little, and seeing that there were only four hours left before the final end of the trial, some people could no longer hold on.

Some people started to stop and leave quietly.

When the number of people gradually reduced to two-thirds of the original number, more and more people chose to give up.

Tiangan's heart was bleeding, but there was nothing he could do to stop it.

After gritting his teeth for a moment, he could only put it aside.

I made an agreement with everyone who was still at the scene to try one last time when the trial was coming to an end, and specifically asked them to try to invite as many people as possible, so I gave up for the time being.

Jiang Lintian felt a little regretful and had some questions.

I just feel that the strength of this barrier is set strangely.

Unable to figure it out, he left alone and continued to collect the energy of heaven.

The masked man saw this and temporarily left the place.

In front of a certain asteroid that had just been extracted, the silk-mask girl who had been away for a long time returned to the masked man and pressed her body against him intimately.

"result?"

Faced with the masked man's brief inquiry, the masked girl immediately gave him a triumphant wink.

After a slight reaction, she gloated and said with a smile: "The person who went down there must have been frightened. Now he may be worried about how to resolve it. He probably gave up on the plan to continue the trial."

Smiling evilly, the masked man raised the corners of his mouth.

"Do business first, and then go find him after you go out."

Glancing at the location of the Blood Lotus of Time not far away, she saw that only a few people were still trying. The silk-faced girl roughly understood the situation here.

To her surprise, the biggest prey did not fall for the bait.

"Interesting. I didn't expect to meet two interesting prey on this trip. The old man's commission is not simple."

The masked man couldn't help but smile.

"It would be even better if we could see the reaction of the old guys in Tianji Pavilion now. They are the most hypocritical people in the world who rely on their own Tianji technique. They think they can strategize and influence all causes and effects by controlling the way of heaven."

…

Outside, inside the core hall at the top of Tange Island Mountain.

Except for the three pavilion masters on the platform, the other senior officials frowned slightly.

The atmosphere is a bit heavy.

For a long time, an elder hesitated and couldn't help but speak.

"Will it be seen through?"

The master of the pavilion immediately shook his head.

"That unique barrier was jointly designed by the three of me. It's the first in the world. It's impossible to see through it in advance without touching it.

The treasure has not fully recognized its owner in him. At most, he is aware that this trip may be dangerous. He must be absolutely unaware of other secrets involving the treasure.

Unless you get the intentional guidance from the knowledgeable and powerful people over at the Magic Mountain."

The elder who asked the question closed his mouth after hearing this.

It is clearly known that the treasure is in the body of a young human man from the Northern Immortal Territory. If the demons find him before them, the demons will never let him take the treasure to participate in this trial. This is reflected in the hexagram

The situation does not match.

This person should have lost his treasure and died the moment he met the demons.

If he had not come into contact with the demons, then he would not have received guidance from the powerful demons.

It is indeed possible for hexagrams to disappear midway.

But until this morning, they had once again confirmed that the hexagrams that predicted that prey was very likely to come were still as before.

As long as this hexagram remains unchanged, it is normal for the person to have arrived.

It is precisely for this reason that all their arrangements here are exquisitely designed around the favorable situation that the target does not have sufficient understanding of the treasure.

"There are still four hours, just wait. Even if this trap doesn't work, at the second level, the Tianji Guapan will naturally be able to sense him. At that time, no matter how clever the concealment method is, it will be useless." The master of the Ren Pavilion said calmly.

In the Tianji Pavilion's planning, the main reliance is on the Tianji Gua Pan deep in the secret realm. The replica of the Tianji Gua Pan, the Tianji Qi and the Blood Lotus of Time are only additional settings out of consideration.

As long as the prey is indeed trapped in a trap, they are confident that they can catch it with 100% certainty.

The treasure of the town pavilion has been lost for too long, and now there is great hope that it can be recovered. The elders under the Taoist platform are eager to conduct the second trial now.

Knowing that haste makes waste, I was forced to hold back my impatience and continue to pay attention to the real-time situation on the Ranking Light Curtain and the Time Blood Lotus.

In theory, the traps on both sides are still effective, and there is still a possibility of success.

An hour passed, and the ranking list, which had been quiet for a long time, began to welcome the third person to qualify, and it was the corresponding name of the woman in black.

On the one hand, it was helped by the favorable factor that she controlled the power of space in the Seven Realms. On the other hand, it was because of the appearance of the Blood Lotus of Time that other competitors who were originally at the top of the list stopped for a while.

Collection progress.

Only then did he come from behind.

Immediately afterwards, like an eruption at the mouth of the well, more testers one after another collected ninety-nine rays of heavenly secret energy, reaching the qualifying standard.

The Masked Man and the Silk Masked Woman happened to be ranked ninth and tenth, only one place lower than their previous rankings. Their performance can be said to be very stable.

When the great elder of Tianji Pavilion in the secret area announced the 90th candidate, Tian Qian, Jiang Lintian and others organized a more massive boundary-breaking operation in accordance with the original agreement.

The result is that just like before, the barrier guarding the Blood Lotus of Time remains unchanged at all.

As the dust settled on the final 100th place to qualify, Zhou Wu, who was extracting the ninety-ninth ray of divine energy somewhere, sighed with regret.

Some regret that I did not resist the temptation of Blood Lotus of Time and wasted some precious time in the process.

Otherwise, he can definitely advance to the second level.

Except for the "big dark horse" called the woman in black, everything is normal, and there are no new test takers.

Knowing that the two traps in the first level had failed, all the senior officials of Tianji Pavilion in the hall became tense in unison.

At this moment, even the Lord of Tian Pavilion, who had been taking it calmly in the middle of the Taoist platform, couldn't help but his eyes were burning.

Whether it is joy or sorrow will be revealed soon.

…

In the secret realm, He Gu stopped decisively after collecting seventy rays of heavenly energy, and did not continue greedily.

Ever since he learned from the demon rat that he could seal the foreign red thread in his head, he temporarily calmed down his mentality.

Knowing that Tianye needs to be at least restored to the Eight Realms before he can use the unique sealing secret method that he masters, he immediately raised the importance of the Blood Lotus of Time to the same level as obtaining the Tianji Stone and fully recognizing its master.

According to the demon rat, it is estimated that nine mature Blood Lotuses of Time are needed.

While thinking, the voice of the Great Elder of Tianji Pavilion sounded solemnly, announcing the official end of the first trial.

Then the announcement was made: "Except for the hundred promoted people who will be teleported into the secret area, the others will be uniformly teleported to the location where the outside world came from. At that time, the Tianji Pavilion disciples who brought you here will be responsible for escorting you back to the border city of the domain.

"

There are 300,000 cultivators from various places. Although they are all of the younger generation, they are also quite unstable.

Unlike the previous situation, everyone who left here was eliminated, and their personal freedom was not forcibly restricted like when they came before.

Tianji Pavilion did not dare to let these people who were eliminated first stay in its core area for a long time and move around at will, so it could only make this decision.

The trial will be deliberately set into two levels, out of concern that something might happen if so many outside cultivators are accommodated within the secret area at once.

The secret realm of Tianji is very important to Tianji Pavilion, and its status is second only to the missing treasure of the town.

Before the treasure is truly recovered, they don't want to lose the Heavenly Secret Trigram Plate inside it, nor will it affect the many years of blood lotuses that have been nurtured within it.

The Great Elder of Tianji Pavilion finally encouraged: "The Qi of Tianji is a rare treasure in the world that can improve the quality of spiritual roots. I hope you will make good use of it after you go back and contribute to the human race's great cause of conquering demons in the future!"

As soon as he finished speaking, beams of teleportation light descended from the sky and enveloped every trialist.

On He Gu's shoulder, the demon rat returned to the escaping pearl in time, and He Gu quickly put it back into the storage bag.

My vision blurred for a moment, but when I saw clearly again, everyone had reached the outer edge of Renge Island.
