"The warrior whose name is read, please come to me quickly with the assessment jade token. After verifying the assessment jade token, under the guidance of Senior Brother Liu, enter their respective positions in the Heart Refining Formation and wait for the formation to be activated. In the formation
Before the method is opened, warriors who enter the formation are not allowed to move without permission. Those who move without permission will be deemed to have failed the assessment!" In front of Zhen Gang Gate's mountain gate, a man wearing Zhen Gang Gate's standard azure military uniform read out the selection loudly.
Rules for inner disciples.
"After everyone enters the Heart Refining Formation, just sit quietly and concentrate on keeping watch! Those who can stay awake when the Heart Refining Formation is closed will be deemed to have passed the assessment! Now let's start reciting names! Warriors who have been named less than three times will be considered as abstainers. No.
Now you have the qualifications to enter the Heart Refining Formation Assessment. Please be quiet!" After the announcement, the name-reciting began!
The waiting time is extremely boring. Ling Dong is ranked more than 300, basically at the end. Because according to Ling Dong's memory, when Zhen Gang Sect recruits disciples every year, the warriors who are qualified to enter the Heart Refining Formation test
, four to five hundred people would reach the sky.
"No. 330, Liang Qiushi..."
"No. 331, Ling Dong!" After waiting for more than half an hour, Ling Dong finally heard his name. After shouting, Ling Dong walked forward quickly, preparing to enter with the disciple of Zhen Gang Sect.
That heart-refining formation.
Just when Ling Dong's name was being sung, Ling Dong keenly discovered that a man suddenly whispered a few words into the ear of the disciple who was leading the way, and then left quickly. The back figure when he left seemed familiar to Ling Dong, but for a moment he looked familiar.
Can't remember who it was.
But Ling Dong noticed that after the man whispered, the disciple who was leading the way looked at him with something special.
The rest of what happened next was normal. After looking at the assessment jade tablet, the leading disciple took Ling Dong to a mountain peak on the left side of Zhen Gang Gate without saying a word!
The mountain peak on the left is also called Soul Refining Peak, where the heart-refining array for assessing disciples is arranged. However, although Ling Dong knew the name of this mountain peak, he knew nothing about the terrain. This Soul Refining Peak, he had done in his previous life.
Never been here!
The mountain road in Chaochu was very narrow, with only room for one person to pass. After crossing a stone gate, the sight suddenly opened up, and a flat, open and large slope appeared in Ling Dong's eyes, just like a mountaintop platform!
However, at this time, there were more than 300 warriors sitting cross-legged in different directions. Ling Dong took a look and saw that the distance between each person was about three meters, which was very even!
As soon as Ling Dong stepped onto the edge of the mountaintop platform, his eyes suddenly blurred, the scenery suddenly changed, mist rose from the ground, and the hundreds of warriors he had just seen sitting there disappeared at the same time.
"Don't panic, this is just the outer illusory formation of the Heart Refining Formation. Just follow me!" The moment the scenery changed, the voice of the disciple leading the way rang out. Then, with Ling Dong in the dense illusion,
After walking around for a while, he asked Ling Dong to sit down with a finger!
"Before the Heart Refining Formation is activated, please do not move around randomly!" After explaining, the disciple's figure disappeared in the mist in an instant.
After the disciple left, Ling Dong didn't think much about it. He just sat cross-legged in the misty illusion generated by the formation, concentrating on guarding his heart. According to Ling Dong's understanding and what he heard, this heart-refining formation should be a test for warriors.
A formation based on the nature of mind. This formation is mainly based on illusions and has absolutely no attack power!
Whether he can pass the test is related to the warrior's willpower. On this point, Ling Dong has absolute confidence.
clang!
After the bell rang, a clear voice floated over the top of the mountain platform: "Everyone, the heart-refining formation is about to open, and the assessment begins!"
Before the sound even hit the ground, Ling Dong sensed countless large or small Gang Qi fluctuations starting to come from around him. Ling Dong knew that this was the crystal stone embedded in the formation starting to transmit Gang Qi energy when it was activated.
of fluctuations.
Almost at the same time, Ling Dong's eyes suddenly went dark. When he could see things again, he was in a space full of dreamy and blurry colors. As the light flowed, a stunning beauty walked directly towards Ling Dong from the void.
, the scenery in front of me also changed again, turning into a magnificent room full of ambiguous atmosphere.
"It's just an illusion!" Looking at the enchanting figure approaching, Ling Dong warned himself again, and began to look at his nose, nose and heart, and his heart at Dantian, holding Yuan Shouyi in his arms. It was as if the hallucinations that appeared in his mind had nothing to do with him.
!
"Brother Ling, open your eyes and look, it's me, I'm Ziyao, Brother Ling..." The familiar voice made Ling Dong's heart tremble, but Ling Dong kept repeating the words "phantom"
, holding Yuan Shouyi, completely ignored the voice that seemed to be real!
Both the voice and the form of speaking are exactly the same. If Ling Dong hadn't told himself in advance that this was an illusion, Ling Dong himself would have believed it!
"Brother Ling, if you don't look at me, I will leave! I really want to leave..." Ziyao's voice became more and more sad, but Ling Dong, who was holding Yuan Shouyi, didn't care at all.
What it moves.
"Husband, the slave family came to see you. How did you do in the assessment? Huh? Did you pass? You have passed it. Then let the slave family come to reward you. You... have been waiting for a long time.
No more intimacy with the slave family?" These words rang in Ling Dong's ears, and there was even a hint of heat that made Ling Dong's heart beat faster in Ling Dong's ears, but Ling Dong remained unmoved, no matter what was in his mind
The phantom appeared, and Ling Dong kept repeating the word 'phantom'.
"Okay, Ling Dong, you passed the assessment. Congratulations on becoming an inner disciple. Come and follow me as your master!" That illusion lasted for unknown lengths of time. Suddenly, a clear and clear voice came into Ling Dong's ears.
, which made Ling Dong's spirit shaken up. Is the illusion finally over?
"Eh? Master... Miss Qiu... why is it you?" The moment he opened his eyes, Ling Dong saw his beautiful master Qiu Qingyi.
"Why can't it be me? Am I not your master? Come on, follow Master. Master has been waiting for you for a long time. Aren't you also looking forward to this day?" Qiu Qingyi said with some dissatisfaction.
After a moment of confusion, Ling Dong frowned and stood up, about to leave with Qiu Qingyi. The moment he started, the ground that Ling Dong saw was still the same mist as before, "No, the assessment is not over yet, this is still
Illusion! Now, Qiu Qingyi is not my master yet!"
The moment this idea came up, Ling Dong broke out in a cold sweat. He sat down again and began to sit and watch the Dantian, holding Yuan Shouyi in his arms! However, a trace of doubt arose in his heart!
This heart-refining formation is too powerful, isn't it? Qiu Qingyi is his master, how can this illusory formation be used? And it uses my thoughts to attack me, how can this illusory formation have some evil spirit formation?
What do you mean?
If Ling Dong had not already opened the sea of divine soul consciousness, he could use the power of the divine soul to constantly emphasize that he was in an illusion. Otherwise, Ling Dong would have been tricked long ago.
When Ling Dong was confused, the illusion saw that the temptation failed, suddenly turned around, and let out a scream: "Ling Dong, my master is about to die, are you not willing to take another look at my master?"
"Dong'er? It was you who saved me, my master, and you died. Let me let my master die in your arms?" This familiar scene came out of the phantom's mouth, and Ling Dong was not the least bit shocked!
Immediately afterwards, Ling Dong's past life experiences came one after another. Scenes such as his brothers' persecution of him, the destruction of his family, and the tragic death of his father were all played out in Ling Dong's mind. These scenes made cold sweat roll down Ling Dong's forehead.
When it fell, an even more terrifying vision came.
Those who died due to Ling Dong in the previous life, or were killed by Ling Dong, or those who caused Ling Dong to suffer great losses, came in droves and surrounded Ling Dong, either scolding, cursing, or laughing at him in various forms.
Yi. When the scene of his father Ling Yuanshan's tragic death reappeared, Ling Dong's heart twitched for no reason!
The illusion array unexpectedly discovered this situation strangely, and then, the scene of the tragic death of Ling Dong's father, Ling Yuanshan, was magnified over and over again, expanded and detailed, and began to be broadcast live in Ling Dong's mind from all angles!
If anyone observes Ling Dong at this time, he will find that Ling Dong's expression at this time is very scary, his eyes are filled with bloodshot eyes, his hands are spread out, and his veins are bulging, as if he wants to catch him.
What, but I can't catch it. Only my lips keep whispering something, but it becomes weaker and weaker!
His father, Ling Yuanshan, was pierced through the heart by someone's sword. After his death, his body was dragged and whipped by the thieves. The details were magnified infinitely. When the magnification reached the limit, Ling Dong was shocked to discover that the man who whipped his father Ling Yuanshan's body was
The man turned out to be Gu Tongtian!
"Ah..." When Fa saw clearly that the person whipping his father's body was Gu Tongtian, Ling Dong couldn't bear it anymore, and his whole body was full of energy, and he wanted to tear the illusion in front of him to pieces!
Almost at the same time that Ling Dong stood up and circulated the Gang Qi, the illusion suddenly turned into a stream of black Qi, and suddenly wrapped around Ling Dong's head, but Ling Dong was at a loss!
"Woo..." At the moment when the black energy was about to wrap around Ling Dong's head, Ling Dong's mind suddenly heard a roar from far to near. Along with the roar, originally
The star-falling disk hidden in the depths of the sea of consciousness of the soul instantly shined brightly, spinning rapidly, and colorful starlight rained out like raindrops.
Without any warning, the illusions that filled Ling Dong's mind turned into black smoke and disappeared in an instant when they encountered the raindrops of colorful starlight.
A colorful halo of light swayed out of Ling Dong's head, and the black smoke rushing towards Ling Dong's head instantly disappeared. At the same time, Ling Dong, whose illusion was cleared, was completely awake!
Behind me, my back was dripping with sweat and my clothes were soaked with sweat! A feeling of guilt and fear came from me!
There have been so many storms and waves, but if he fell into the heart-refining formation that was testing the disciples today, wouldn't Ling Dong regret his death?
Don't look at it as an illusion. If Ling Dong had just jumped out to attack the illusion and no one woke him up, Ling Dong would have fallen into endless attacks and anger. The illusion is unkillable! This situation will continue until Ling Dong's internal energy is exhausted.
It will stop only when the oil is gone and the lamp is dry! And if the black energy of hatred is allowed to entangle itself, even if Ling Dong is not awakened by others, he will probably become a slave of hatred and have no other fun.
"That's not right!" Ling Dong wiped away the cold sweat, and suddenly saw a new illusion forming on the opposite side, and his expression suddenly changed. Zhen Gang Sect's Heart Refining Formation is definitely not that powerful!
Although Ling Dong has never entered Zhen Gang Sect's Heart Refining Formation before, he has heard from warriors who have participated in the test in the past few days! The Heart Refining Formation mainly tests the warrior's willpower.
Illusions are usually of beauty, or of desert predicaments that require perseverance to get out of! Illusions like the one he just experienced are absolutely impossible.
Ling Dong's ability to open the sea of soul consciousness, as well as the incomparable tenacity and willpower trained in previous lives, are all unbearable. Then other ordinary warriors who participate in the assessment will be completely wiped out? Then what happens to Zhen Gang Sect every year?
Is it possible to recruit disciples?
And the illusions of ordinary illusion arrays have no ability to directly point to people's hearts! But the illusion just now revealed something deep in Ling Dong's heart. Even things that happened a few years, decades, or hundreds of years later,
They were all used by the phantom!
Those who can use these things are no longer illusions, but inner demons!
"Someone has tampered with something?" When this thought flashed through Ling Dong's mind, the familiar figure who was whispering behind the leading disciple when he entered the Heart Refining Formation suddenly appeared in Ling Dong's mind?
Ling Dong wanted to recall that when he found out who the figure was, the newly formed phantom should not be said to be an inner demon, but it had new actions.
The illusion that appeared this time made Ling Dong's eyes split open! In the illusion, his archenemy Gu Tongtian actually captured all the women he had a relationship with in this life!
Ziyao, Liu Yaoguang, Qiao Ruyan, Qiu Qingyi, and even Xuanji, who had only met Ling Dong a few times in the Mansion of Ten Thousand Stars, were also caught in front of Ling Dong by Gu Tongtian!
Then, all kinds of tortures were performed in turn, and the sad screams seemed to be real. If it weren't for the astrolabe that would emit a colorful starlight at critical moments from time to time, Ling Dong would have been tricked long ago!
"Heart Demon Array, this is definitely the power of a top-grade formation inlaid with high-grade crystal stones in the Earthly Fiend! Someone is definitely plotting against me. Don't let me know who plotted against me! Otherwise!" At this point, Ling Dong has already appeared.
Great anger!
Although Ling Dong is not injured yet, the emotional damage caused by the inner demon phantom is very real!
Seeing that the illusion formed by the inner demon was becoming more and more unbearable, Ling Dong simply stopped hugging Yuan Shouyi and directly focused his mind on the falling star chart!
Ling Dong discovered that as long as he kept his mind on the descending star disk, all the illusions in his mind would disappear. Those illusions could not enter Ling Dong's mind for even a moment. This would prevent him from suffering that kind of emotional torture.
, that kind of scene, no normal person would be able to bear it!
This is also the experience that Ling Dong discovered unintentionally!
It didn't matter that Ling Dong was guarding the Falling Star Chart, but Ling Dong didn't know that when he started to guard the Falling Star Chart, something strange happened in the Heart Refining Formation, which even alarmed the highest level of Zhen Gang Sect.
Let the entire Zhen Gang Sect move because of Ling Dong's move.
