The stone gate is wide open!!

This indicates that the most cruel monster selection competition in history has officially begun!

The lame old man slowly led the way into the stone gate. The contestants followed closely behind him.

Xiao Han and others were also mixed in the crowd.

Behind the stone gate is a corridor, which is dark and bottomless. It can be seven or eight feet wide and more than ten feet high. Anyone who enters it feels like being swallowed by a giant beast.

In the dark cave, the true energy radiating from the bodies of the contestants can illuminate. But the atmosphere in the cave seems gloomy and terrifying, and there are even sounds of ghosts crying, wolves howling and ghosts sobbing, which makes people have inner demons.

Scalp numbness.

And the most heartbreaking thing is... no one knows how long this cave is!

The lame old man walked slowly and slowly in front, and no player dared to surpass him. Therefore, he could not control the true energy to fly in the cave. The large army slowly moved forward, not knowing when it would end.

"Xiao Han... This cave is extremely deep." Shao Yunrong whispered in Xiao Han's ear, her voice also shivering. "I don't know why, but it makes people feel scared. There is a smell of danger everywhere here.

…”

"Giggle...Sister, are you scared?" Mo Qingtong said with a sweet smile. "If you are scared, why bother to participate in this competition? It is not so easy to become a demon... If sister is really scared, it is better to do it as soon as possible

Give up..." Mo Qingtong seemed to be very adaptable to this gloomy and strange environment, and she smiled like a bell.

"You..." Shao Yunrong glared.

"Okay, stop arguing." Xiao Han said with a smile. "There is an inexplicable atmosphere in this cave that makes people have inner demons. It's actually nothing, Yun Rong, your sword intention can quench nothingness and all negative emotions.

, I think you are so nervous that you have forgotten your sword intention."

"Huh?" Shao Yunrong choked. Soon, a flash of sword light flashed in her bright eyes, forcibly cutting off the panic. The whole person suddenly became relaxed. She said with relief. "It's much better now.

Xiao Han, I am really at a loss. At the beginning of the main match, my heart strings were so tense that I even forgot to use my sword intention. Thank you for reminding me by your side."

In this way, everyone followed the lame old man and walked in the cave for several hours! There was still no light on the road ahead. It seemed endless.

In the team, gasping sounds began to sound one after another.

A full dozen hours later!

The steps of some players began to stagnate and become tired, their steps and eyelids became heavier and heavier, and some even bent down and breathed heavily. This was not physical fatigue, but a kind of mental consumption and hollowing out.

Makes people collapse.

A few more hours passed.

The lame old man led the team around a corner. Shockingly...

"Tick tock~~tick tock~~tick tock~~~~"

There was a sound of water drops ahead.

In the quiet cave, the sound of water droplets suddenly resounded, which was extremely scary! Moreover, the sound of water droplets seemed to be a sharp sword piercing the human soul! Every sound was like a heavy hammer, striking directly into the human soul!

"Ah!!!!" In the team, a young man from the Northern Territory finally broke out in hysterical wails. He almost beat his chest and started crying loudly. "I...I give up...I don't want to participate in the main competition...

…”

He covered his ears, turned around and ran away.

The panic that caused people to collapse spread like a plague, and soon hundreds of people couldn't bear the ravage and torture of their souls, and they all gave up and turned around and ran away.

"Hey... if you want to give up, you can just go back the way you came." The lame old man laughed dryly.

However, the vast majority of the players present are determined geniuses who are indomitable and able to endure.

Some players even sneered sarcastically, expressing disdain for those who escaped.

soon……

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard not far away, and the sound was loud.

"There are 137 names, and they have completely faded from the list. Okay, the rest of them will move on!" The lame old man twitched the corner of his mouth, turned around and walked forward.

"Ah? Boss Xiao, those guys who gave up the main game and ran away, all died?" Fatty Zhu glared.

"The examiner said before that only the dead contestants will have their original energy poured into the names on the list annihilated, making their names dim... Those people must be dead." Huo Wu said with palpitations. "The first game.

The exam hadn't officially started yet, but hundreds of people died just on the way... It's really cruel."

"Actually, this also tells us that in the Monster Selection Competition, if you don't advance, you will be destroyed." Xiao Han nodded seriously. "I think that to become a Monster, your spirit must be as sharp as a sword, flawless. Such a small thing

If you can’t bear the small hardships, how can you cultivate your true energy? How can you become a monster? Let’s go and move on!”

Xiao Han has experienced many life-and-death battles and transformed several times. Therefore, even without using the sword, he can resist the weird atmosphere in the cave.

Suppress inner demons and act with extra strength.

Moreover, Xiao Han discovered that under the eerie atmosphere of this cave, attacking the true acupoint was more effective with half the effort, making it much easier than usual!

"Huh?" Xiao Han's heart moved slightly, and immediately, while walking slowly, he tried to hit the 31st real point.

The 31st true acupoint is a gateway from the third stage of Zhenqi to the fourth stage of Zhenqi. It is a bottleneck and requires sufficient knowledge and opportunities to break through.

"Tick tock~~tick tock~~~tick tock~~~"

The sound of water dripping in the cave became increasingly dense, and the magic sound seeped into the brain, destroying the liver and intestines.

But Xiao Han has already entered that mysterious state where there is no one and no self, and all the intrusions from the outside world are no longer in his mind. He attacks the true acupuncture point and gradually enters a better state.

After walking on foot for several more hours, the sound of dripping water disappeared and was replaced by a faint salty light shining through the cave entrance, accompanied by the sound of the waves rising and falling.!

"We're finally going through this corridor! There seems to be an ocean outside." Huo Wu blurted out in Xiao Han's ear.

Just then...

"puff!"

In Xiao Han's body, the sound of breaking out of a cocoon and turning into a butterfly burst out! It was like a savage beast awakening in Xiao Han's body!

A ray of light flashed through Xiao Han's eyes, like a cold lightning, making the dark cave light up!

"Huh... finally opened the 31st true acupoint and reached the fourth stage of true energy!" Xiao Han exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"Huh? Brother Xiao, are you attacking the real point?" Mo Qingtong was the first to react.

Xiao Han smiled slightly.

at the same time……

"Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!"

In the cave, sounds like breaking eggshells were heard one after another.

For a time, the cave was filled with sunlight and looked full of treasure.

It seems that Xiao Han is not the only one who knows how to use the atmosphere in the cave to explode the cave.

At the front of the team, the lame old man paused for a moment, with a faint smile on his lips and muttered in an almost inaudible voice. "Some of these little guys are quite interesting... quite interesting..."

finally!

The big team came out of the cave!

Outside the cave, the sky is clear and the sun is like fire, which is very different from the ghostly and gloomy environment in the cave!

This is a golden beach! The sand and gravel reflect the brilliance under the sunlight, as attractive as broken gold. Beyond the beach, there is an endless and magnificent ocean! The hot waves send pieces mixed with

Fishy and salty smell

With the strong sea breeze, flocks of seabirds soar over the blue sea. These seabirds are all exotic species, like the Luan birds in the wilderness. They are huge in size and have gorgeous and beautiful feathers. From time to time, giant fish leap out of the sea and stir up excitement.

Thousands of huge waves.

In a port not far away, dozens of metal ships are moored. But there is no one around.

On these metal ships, there are patterns of Poseidon holding a trident, and they are engraved with a large number of complicated lines and characters. They exude a mysterious brilliance, which seems to be some kind of formation.

The players all looked around curiously.

"Okay, everyone, get on the ship. Go to the island and conduct the first assessment." The lame old man walked towards the port. "Choose a ship at will. Remember two points. First, there are things dormant in the deep sea that even Poseidon would shy away from.

The ancient sea beast. Therefore, you cannot release your true energy and fly casually. You must get on the boat, otherwise you will die without a place to die. Secondly, you must behave yourself on the boat and do not quarrel or fight. Otherwise, you will be disqualified from the main competition."

Hearing this, the players rushed to the port in a swarm. Each chose a giant ship.

Xiao Han and others boarded one of the ships.

There were also a large number of young people from the four regions on the same boat with Xiao Han and others, and even some children of the wilderness. The huge deck was full of people.

Not long after, ten ships were loaded with nearly 10,000 contestants.

Pull anchor and set sail.

The ship is very magical. It does not require human control and can sail automatically to its destination.

The five of them, Xiao Han, Mo Qingtong, Shao Yunrong, Huo Wu and Zhu Fatty, stood leaning on the railing, chatting in low voices while admiring the sea.

As far as the eye can see, there is indeed an island, embedded in the ocean like a pearl.

"This should still be within the scope of the Demon Hero Domain, right?" Xiao Han asked with a frown.
