The eight people on the lake are all at extremely high levels and are well-informed. They had heard about the assessment content of the Confucian League before coming here, so it was not surprising.
"The death energy cannot be copied, but our Confucian League has a special flame that is very similar to the death energy, which can test your tolerance for the death energy..."
Liu Rushi shook the jade bottle in his hand and continued: "This fire is extremely domineering. I have spoken beforehand. If you can't hold on, don't be brave. If you retreat to the shore in time, everything will be fine."
After hearing this, the eight people on the lake all laughed and said, "We will make our own decision and let the fairy test it."
"good."
Liu Rushi nodded slightly: "The rule of the first round of assessment is that you cannot use magic weapons. You must stay on the lake for an hour to pass."
After saying that, he raised his hand and threw the jade bottle towards the lake.
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the jade bottle shattered, and a gray flame spread out, quickly covering the entire lake!
This flame has no temperature and is even a little cold.
But the eight people on the lake all felt a strong crisis, because the flames were devouring their vitality and causing their bodies to wither quickly.
In an instant, a wrinkle appeared on the middle-aged scribe's face!
The man's face changed drastically, and he looked extremely surprised.
Perhaps, he had heard about the content of the assessment before coming, but the cruelty of the assessment still exceeded his expectations...
As long as you are not careful, you may cause irreversible damage to your physical body!
Thinking of this, the man immediately made a hand seal, and a light blue glow rushed out from the Baihui point, covering the surface of his skin like a water curtain and waves.
With the resistance of this secret technique, the middle-aged scribe felt a little calmer, but his face was still alert, and he was always observing the changes in his body.
On the other side, Liang Yan was also extremely surprised.
"This flame..."
In his perception, this flame is actually very similar to his own "Wuwen" magical power. It can also burn other people's life essence, causing the physical body to wither quickly.
"Taoism and Confucianism are really unfathomable! It's just a simple assessment, and they can actually come up with such treasures. Compared with the seven mountains and twelve cities of Antarctic Immortal Continent, they are much inferior." Liang Yan
I sighed secretly in my heart.
His true self is a living dead, and he is not afraid of the aura of death at all, nor is he afraid of this kind of flame.
But what is here now is just a clone and does not have the characteristics of the living dead, so we still have to treat it with all our strength.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan's face became solemn, he used his magic power to strengthen his body, and began to concentrate on resisting the gray flames below.
This fire may not seem very powerful, but only the authorities understand the pain involved.
As time went by, the flames grew stronger and stronger, rising into the sky from the lake, forming gray fire clouds.
"ah!"
Suddenly someone exclaimed, but it was the middle-aged scribe.
Three wrinkles had appeared on this man's face, and his expression was frightened. He no longer dared to stay above the lake. He just pinched the magic formula and turned into escaping light and flew away through the air.
Soon, he rushed out of the lake and came to the shore.
The moment he landed, all the gray flames that had enveloped his body disappeared, and the terrifying pressure finally dissipated, making the man let out a long sigh of relief.
However, three wrinkles were permanently left on his face...
"It's hard for Xue to take on a big job, which makes Fairy Liu laugh." The man laughed at himself.
Liu Rushi glanced over and chuckled: "Fellow Taoist, you don't have to belittle yourself. Very few people can bear this flame. You are like a dragon or a phoenix among people, and your future is limitless. It's just that you have no chance to participate in this session of 'Xu Jing Lun Dao'."
There will be great opportunities in the future.”
Of course, the middle-aged scribe knew that these were words of comfort, but he always felt better in terms of face, so he smiled and said: "Thank you very much, Fairy, for your kind words. Xue will stay here to see who can survive this test until the end."
"Fellow Taoist, please feel free to do so."
Liu Rushi nodded slightly, stopped looking at him, and continued to observe the people on the lake.
At this moment, the gray flames on the lake were already very strong. The seven people participating in the assessment could not use magic weapons to resist them, but could only use secret techniques to strengthen their bodies.
But even if the secret technique is used, it is difficult to defend against this strange flame.
Just after the middle-aged scribe was eliminated, two more people soon could not bear the burning of the flames and voluntarily left the lake.
There are only five people left on the lake!
Three of them had serious faces and their bodies were shaking slightly, obviously struggling to support themselves.
Only Murong Changfeng and Liang Yan looked calm.
It turns out that Murong Changfeng practiced the "Seven Star Hegemonic Body Technique" and used starlight to refine his body. He followed the path of both physical and mental cultivation, and his physical strength far exceeded that of monks of the same level.
It is more than enough to deal with this level of flames.
As for Liang Yan's clone, it is a sword spirit born in the sword world. Its physical strength is enough to rival the physical cultivation of the sub-sage realm! If Liang Yan hadn't endowed him with soul and sword intention, he would have only one attack method.
That is "using one's body as a sword".
Therefore, even though his cultivation level was the lowest, he was unscathed by the gray flames.
Everyone present looked surprised when they saw this scene.
Especially the middle-aged scribe. He thought that his physical strength was not bad, but he didn't expect to be eliminated first. Seeing that Liang Yan could persist for so long with his ability to survive two disasters, you can imagine the gap in his heart.
"Oh, the world is so big and there are so many heroes! How ridiculous it is for Xue to sit in a well and look at the sky!" the middle-aged scribe sighed softly.
Amid everyone's strange looks, Liang Yan was always there, sitting on the futon with his eyes closed and meditating.
Time passes little by little, and an hour will soon pass.
At this time, except for Liang Yan and Murong Changfeng, the other three people on the lake were about to reach the limit.
"ah!"
Just when the assessment was about to end, someone suddenly screamed.
This person is a beautiful young woman, wearing a pink silk dress. She is originally beautiful, but at this moment, six deep wrinkles appear on her face, her skin is shriveled, and there is a gray flame burning between her eyebrows!
Her face was horrified, and she no longer cared about the assessment. She immediately made a magic spell and turned into a escaping light and rushed out of the lake.
The moment she left the lake, Liu Rushi suddenly took out a willow branch from her sleeve and waved it gently in the air.
In an instant, a cloud appeared above the beautiful young woman's head, and then rain fell, quickly extinguishing the gray flames between her eyebrows.
The woman's shock had just subsided and she froze on the spot for a moment, and her weakened aura gradually recovered a bit.
Her face was as gloomy as water, and she said nothing. She suddenly turned around and turned into a ray of light and galloped away. She actually left without saying goodbye...
"pity!" Liu Rushi looked at the man's back from a distance and couldn't help but sigh.
This woman has the ability to overcome eight difficulties, has excellent talents, and is not weak in magical powers. Unfortunately, her physical strength is her shortcoming, and this shortcoming is extremely fatal in the world of disaster!
Liu Rushi sighed secretly in his heart, and looked at the sky above the lake again.
She only glanced at Murong Changfeng, and spent most of her time looking at Liang Yan.
"This man is interesting! He only survived the second disaster, but he has been able to survive until now. His physical strength is evident... But unfortunately, his cultivation level is still too low. Even if he passes the first round, it will be difficult to advance later."
She commented in her heart, but her expression remained unchanged on the surface, still smiling.
After a while, Liu Rushi stood up from his seat and said loudly: "The first round of assessment is over. Congratulations to the four of you for passing the test!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and sprinkled a handful of black powder into the lake. The strange flame that was originally burning was extinguished in an instant, as if it had never appeared!
When everyone saw this magical scene, they couldn't help but marvel.
On the lake, apart from Liang Yan and Murong Changfeng, there were only two people left, a bald old man and a purple-robed man.
The two of them had struggled to hold on until now, and finally survived for an hour, with expressions of lingering fear on their faces.
"The Realm of Disaster is indeed dangerous and unpredictable. It is difficult to deal with the death energy alone, let alone the Tianxu wandering around..."
The two of them thought of this at the same time and couldn't help but retreat.
But when I thought about the various rewards of "The Virtual Realm Discussing the Tao", my heart became hot again, and I finally chose to stay.
In contrast, Murong Changfeng had a calm expression from beginning to end.
He only glanced at Liang Yan, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was a little confused, but he quickly shook his head, seemingly not taking Liang Yan to heart.
"This recruitment assessment is really fierce! There are eight participants. Unexpectedly, half of them were eliminated in the first round. I wonder how many people can survive the second round?"
"Haha, do you think this is an ordinary assessment? Those who are qualified to participate in the 'Void Realm Discussion' are the best in Dongyun Lingzhou. It can be said that the strongest combat power under the saints will gather in the Disaster Realm.
, it’s beyond the reach of most people!”
"That's right. We are all here to watch the excitement anyway. The more intense the competition, the better!"
…
Everyone on the lake shore was talking a lot, but the four people on the lake were as quiet as still water, sitting cross-legged on their futons.
Liu Ru glanced at everyone and slowly said:
"Escape light cannot be used in the virtual world of disaster. In order to deal with this, our Confucian League has created a special magic weapon called 'Nine Sky Wings', which allows the user to fly and escape in the virtual world of disaster. This magic weapon needs to be used
The power of the divine soul is controlled, so this second round of assessment is to test whether everyone's divine soul power matches the 'Nine Sky Wings'."
After saying that, he raised his hand and waved, and saw the glow of light flashing in mid-air, and a moment later a pair of light blue wings appeared.
These wings are suspended in the sky, fluttering in the wind. Their surface is carefully inlaid with countless pieces of glass and stardust. They reflect the colorful rays of light under the sunlight. Each ray of light contains pure and majestic spiritual energy, like a spiritual snake.
Wandering around.
Looking from a distance, these wandering spiritual energy threads actually form a mysterious formation!
Everyone present could not help but widen their eyes when they saw this thing.
"The Confucian League's skill in weapon refining is truly unparalleled in the mainland. This thing is so miraculous and amazing!" the middle-aged scribe who was eliminated sincerely praised.
Even Murong Changfeng, who had been taciturn before, couldn't help but look surprised when he saw the pair of wings, and nodded secretly.
"The content of the second round of assessment is very simple. You inject the power of your soul into the 'Nine Heavens Wings', and as long as you can open the wings, you will pass." Liu Rushi chuckled.
After listening to the onlookers, they still didn't understand. There was nothing dangerous about this second round of assessment. It was purely about luck. As long as the power of spiritual consciousness matched the "Nine Sky Wings", they could easily pass the test.
"I'll go first!"
On the lake, the man in purple robe laughed and rushed up into the sky first, arriving in front of "Nine Sky Wings".
He narrowed his eyes slightly, pressed his hands on the wings, and injected the power of his spiritual consciousness into them.
After a moment, the two wings suddenly opened up, and the feathers on them were like clouds, flowing in the wind, sparking a dazzling light.
The man in purple robe was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and laughed loudly: "Passed, haha! I passed!"
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Di, please wait aside." Liu Rushi said softly.
"good!"
The purple-robed man let go of his Nine Heavens Wings, then flashed back to his futon.
"I'll try it too!"
The bald old man jumped up and came to Jiuxiaoyi, and also injected the power of divine consciousness into it.
Unfortunately, he did not have the same luck as the man in purple robe. Jiuxiao Wing remained motionless and showed no reaction at all.
The old man didn't give up, his face turned red, and he activated the power of his spiritual consciousness to the extreme.
But the result still hasn't changed. He has no way to use the Nine Heavens Wings...
"It's a pity that the soul of fellow Taoist does not match the Nine Heavens Wings. There are many dangerous terrains in the virtual realm of disaster. If you can't escape, you will probably be trapped and die in it. It doesn't matter if you don't go. If you enter by force, you will be trapped.
It's a disaster." Liu Rushi said softly.
After hearing this, the bald old man let out a long sigh: "Fairy Liu is absolutely right. It is not my chance. If I try to fight for it, I will suffer the consequences."
After saying that, he pressed the escape light, came to the lake, and quit the assessment.
At this point, the only ones who have not participated in the assessment are Murong Changfeng and Liang Yan.
Murong Changfeng didn't even look at Liang Yan and stepped forward, looking confident.
"I'm going to come today to see what is so mysterious about the Confucian League's 'Nine Sky Wings'!"
After saying that, he put his hand on Jiuxiao's wings.
The spiritual consciousness of the sub-holy realm is so huge, and Murong Changfeng has an arrogant character. The power of his spiritual consciousness burst out in an instant without any concealment.
Everyone present, those with lower cultivation levels, all looked horrified, and there was a faint feeling of danger that someone had seen through all the secrets.
"What a powerful spiritual power!" Many people on the lake shore exclaimed.
However, under the expectant gazes of everyone, the pair of Nine Heavens Wings did not move at all!
"This...how is this possible!"
Murong Changfeng's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face.
He thought to himself that the power of his spiritual consciousness was powerful enough that even the purple-robed man could activate the Nine-Sky Wings. Wasn't he able to catch him?
But the reality is so cruel, even with his divine consciousness in the sub-holy realm, he actually failed!
"Impossible! There must be a mistake somewhere... Liu Rushi, there is something wrong with your Nine Heavens Wings, there is definitely something wrong!" Murong Changfeng stared at Liu Rushi and shouted loudly.
