In response to everyone's suspicious looks, Lin Yu looked indifferent, as if he hadn't seen him at all.
He did kill the sword demon, but he would not be stupid enough to reveal the news. If a tree attracts the wind, the wind will destroy it.
The death of the sword demon is destined to become a mystery.
Afterwards, the middle-aged phantom in green robe announced the ranking of everyone's points. Lin Yu ranked seventh among everyone with 62 points.
"He is actually seventh?"
This result surprised many people, and some warriors who had previously suspected that Lin Yu had killed the Sword Demon became suspicious again.
However, after watching for a long time, they still couldn't believe that Lin Yu could kill the Sword Demon. In the end, they could only suppress their doubts reluctantly.
"Okay, the top twenty warriors, I will send you to Xingluo Pass now. As for the others, just wait for the next batch of tests."
The cyan middle-aged shadow looked indifferent. He waved his hand, and twenty rays of light fell, shrouding Lin Yu and others. The next moment, their figures appeared thousands of miles away.
In front of them, there was a huge majestic pass. Different from the desolation of the Pass of Life and Death and the towering of Shanhaiguan, the feeling of this Xingluo Pass was that it was deep, as unfathomable as the boundless starry sky.
This is the last of the three major passes, the last barrier before entering the lost ancient city, Xingluo Pass!
Different from the Life and Death Pass and Shanhaiguan Pass, this Xingluo Pass only requires fifty people to open. However, among the fifty people, only ten people can successfully pass it!
At this time, there were already more than thirty warriors in front of Xingluo Pass. However, unlike before, these warriors closed their eyes and meditated, thinking hard about something. Even the arrival of Lin Yu and others did not let them take a glance.
.
Wow!
A ray of purple light shot up, and a chessboard rose into the sky. From the chessboard, a shadow of a middle-aged man in purple clothes emerged. He said with a calm expression: "When everyone is here, the test of Xingluo Pass begins!"
After the words fell, the chessboard quickly enlarged, expanding to ten feet in length and width. There were a total of 7,749 chess pieces placed on the huge chess board. However, these chess pieces were not divided into black and white, but were all of the same color.
of black.
The black chess pieces are glowing with a dark luster and are so profound that once you take a look at them, you can't help but get immersed in them.
"What is in front of you is the test of Xingluo Pass, the Xingluo chessboard! What you have to do is to put your consciousness into the chessboard and crack the Xingluo chessboard!"
"You all have half a month to crack the Xingluo chessboard. In half a month, you can fail an unlimited number of times. But after half a month is up, if the number of cracked chess pieces is still twenty,
The following will be eliminated and dealt with!"
"As for the top ten players with the number of cracked chess pieces, they are qualified to pass through Xingluo Pass and truly enter the Lost Ancient City! Do you all understand the rules?"
"Understood."
Many warriors nodded.
"Lu Xiaoran!"
At this moment, among the crowd, a young man with an arrogant face suddenly took a step forward and shouted: "As an inner disciple of the Sky Splitting Sword Sect, do you have the guts to compete with me?"
"oh?"
Another young man wearing a green robe and a long sword on his waist raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile: "Yuan Ming, how do you want to compare with me?"
"It's very simple. Let's compare the results of this star chessboard!"
The young man named "Yuan Ming" said proudly: "We are not competing with anyone else, we are competing to see who can get the first place in this level! If anyone loses, he will have to stay away from the other person when he sees him in the future. Do you dare?
"
"Why don't you dare?"
Lu Xiaoran smiled lightly: "This Xingluo chessboard is nothing more than a comparison of understanding. Based on understanding, who among these people can compete with me?"
Of the three major passes, the first pass of life and death tests the character of the mind, the second pass of Shanhaiguan Pass tests the combat power, and the Xingluo Pass tests the understanding.
Hearing the arrogant conversation between Lu Xiaoran and Yuan Ming, who did not take anyone else seriously, many warriors around them frowned, but after a while of internal consideration, no one spoke.
Because these two people have quite a lot of backgrounds!
Lu Xiaoran, number 177 on the Earth Ranking, is a disciple of the inner sect of the Sky-Splitting Sword Sect. It is said that he was appreciated by an elder of the Sky-Splitting Sword Sect's Zongfu Hall, and his future is limitless.
And Yuan Ming is the grandson of a Tianyuan realm elder from the Juedao Sect, ranking 183rd on the Earth Ranking!
The most important thing is that whether it is Lu Xiaoran or Yuan Ming, both of them are not very old, that is, they are only twenty-seven or seventy-eight years old, and they have reached the peak of perfection in the world.
If it were just a comparison of strength, no one present would be afraid of these two people, but if it were a comparison of understanding and qualifications, these two people do have a great advantage.
Of course, it is also because some real geniuses have already passed the test of Xingluo Pass and entered the interior of the lost ancient city, which is why there are no tigers in the mountains and monkeys are kings.
"Okay! The assessment of Xingluo Chessboard begins now!"
The middle-aged figure in purple robe had an indifferent expression and ignored the gambling fight between Lu Xiaoran and Yuan Ming. He stretched out his hand and waved, and the star chessboard suddenly released a bright light, and the entire chessboard seemed to come to life all of a sudden.
"start!"
In an instant, all the warriors, including Lu Xiaoran and Yuan Ming, immediately released their consciousness and penetrated into the Xingluo chessboard.
The same is true for Lin Yu.
Whoosh!
The next moment, Lin Yu's consciousness suddenly trembled, and he suddenly appeared in a starry sky. Surrounded by the boundless starry sky, with huge stars under his feet, the scene was magnificent and gorgeous.
"Um?"
Soon, Lin Yu discovered something unusual about this place. In this starry sky, all his true energy realm, star spirit body and even sword intention were all sealed.
This place is somewhat similar to the scene when he was practicing Kuai Sword on Luantian Island. All the methods were sealed, making him become like a mortal.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a ray of light flashed, and the rays of light quickly gathered into a figure. The man held a long sword, pointed at Lin Yu, and said calmly: "Beat me, you win!"
"A swordsmanship competition?"
Looking at the figure holding the sword in front of him, Lin Yu suddenly understood.
In fact, he is no stranger to Xingluo Chessboard.
In the Dharma-Ending Era of his previous life, many things were lost, but this Xingluo chessboard was passed down.
The Xingluo chessboard will have different tests for different warriors. For sword cultivators, the test is swordsmanship. For swordsmen, the test is sword skills. For boxers, the corresponding test is boxing skills. In short
, it is completely based on the warrior's own characteristics and the most appropriate test.
call out!
Before he could continue thinking, the figure holding the sword suddenly drew his sword.
