"Well, since everyone asked, I will not waste any time. The recruitment of five outer disciples this time is still based on three tests. The first test is the will test, and the second test tests your understanding of the sword.
, the third level is a test of strength.”
"If you pass the three tests, you will get three points. Then Lao Chan and I will give you one point each based on your performance in the test, making a total of five points. The top five with the highest scores will become the outer disciples of our sect."
"Time is like a stick of incense. Everyone, are you ready?"
After Deacon Lin said these words, he glanced at everyone with a straight face. Some of those who were not determined were trembling all over, and even those who were more relaxed were breaking out in cold sweat.
"Ready."
Everyone hurriedly responded loudly, fearing that the old man wouldn't hear.
The old man smiled, suddenly glanced at Lu Chen, then put his hands behind his hands and said, "Okay, you can go into the mountain later." After saying this, the old man's figure flickered and disappeared.
The next moment, he was standing on a long staircase. Looking down, he could see thousands of sword cultivators outside the mountain gate.
"Old Lin, there are some good seedlings this time." Deacon Fang suddenly appeared beside him and said with a smile, "Take that Zi Chongxiao as an example, this kid has reached the peak of the Divine Realm and stepped into the Human Immortal Realm."
, that will be a matter of time, his strength can be regarded as the best among these boys.'
"That guy is pretty good." After hearing this, Deacon Lin pointed his finger at a young man in white and said, he turned out to be Lu Chen.
"Oh, have you noticed this kid too?" Deacon Fang said in surprise.
"I can't see through this guy." Deacon Lin said.
"So you have the same feeling." Deacon Fang chuckled, looked at Lu Chen, his smile faded, and said seriously, 'What do you think?'
"Although this boy only has the cultivation level of the God Emperor Realm, he has already understood the origin of swordsmanship, and his strength may be extraordinary. If he has the cultivation level of the Divine Emperor Realm, I am afraid that only Zi Chongxiao can compete with him." Deacon Lin said.
"Yes, do you think he was sent by other forces?" Deacon Fang asked.
"There is a possibility, but it is very low." Deacon Lin said.
"Why?" Deacon Fang looked at him puzzled and asked.
"Other forces have sent many people to lurk in our sect, and their talents are not bad. Some of them have even reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm like us, but compared with this son, they are far behind." Deacon Lin said,'
The cost of sending this person here is too high, right?'
"I didn't expect you and I to want to go together." Deacon Fang laughed when he heard this, his eyes flickered, and said, 'Why not, after he passes, we will send someone to investigate his background.'
"Okay." Deacon Lin nodded.
Obviously, they all think Lu Chen can become one of the top five.
"Come on!"
"Get out of my way."
"Last time, I, Nie Chuan, didn't succeed. This time, I must enter the top five."
At the same time, in front of Xuantian Sword Sect's mountain gate, thousands of sword cultivators rushed into the mountain gate with extremely excited expressions. One of them, a young man in black clothes, roared and entered the mountain gate ahead of many others.
"interesting."
Seeing the young man Nie Chuan dressed in black, Lu Chen smiled, used the power of the Five Elements, used the Five Elements Steps, and followed him into the mountain gate; his speed was neither too fast nor too slow.
As for Zi Chongxiao, the woman in red and the young man with big gold teeth are already a big step ahead of him.
After a while, a long staircase appeared at his feet.
The moment he stepped forward, he was shocked. The scene in front of him suddenly changed. Everyone disappeared, replaced by women like flowers and jade, some were enchanting, some were pure, some were pitiful, some were all kinds of charming.
He made various provocative and seductive moves, and even attracted Lu Chen.
"Everything is a pink skull."
Seeing the women kissing and touching him one by one, Lu Chen turned a blind eye and his mind was empty. He separated them with his hands and walked up step by step.
The women disappeared immediately, and what appeared in front of Lu Chen's eyes was a terrifying and ghastly scene, with all kinds of demons and monsters charging towards them ferociously with their teeth and claws bared.
"Everything is illusion."
Lu Chen remained calm and allowed them to kill him, but what he didn't expect was that some monsters broke into the spiritual world and wanted to disturb his mind.
"court death!"
With a cold light flashing on his face, Lu Chen gathered his spiritual power and swept through the spiritual world. Those monsters, like bubbles, disappeared into nothing.
The monsters and monsters that rushed towards him let out a scream and disappeared, but Lu Chen looked as usual and walked forward unhurriedly.
"Old man Lin, have you seen it?"
On the long steps, Deacon Fang seemed to notice Lu Chen and let out a surprised sound.
"This boy's spiritual power is so strong that not only was he not deceived, but he wiped them all out in an instant." Deacon Lin said, 'This boy is extraordinary!'
"It's not as simple as being extraordinary. I thought Zi Chongxiao could get the first place, but now it seems that the first place belongs to this kid." Deacon Fang said with a smile.
"This kid doesn't seem to have any intention of striving for first place." Deacon Lin suddenly said.
"How is that possible?" Deacon Fang looked in surprise and saw that Lu Chen had slowed down a lot after passing the first test of will. He couldn't help but asked strangely, "What does this kid mean?"
"I'm afraid he wants to retain his strength." Deacon Lin said with a smile.
"This kid is really interesting." Deacon Fang smiled, rolled his eyes, and said, "How about we take care of him?"
"Isn't it good?" Deacon Lin hesitated.
"That's it. As long as you and I don't say anything, who will know?" Deacon Fang chuckled, glanced at Chase Lu, and said, 'Don't you want to see how strong this kid is?'
"Okay." Deacon Lin nodded and said, 'This kid is really a bit hateful. He should be given some pain.'
"Boy, I would like to see how capable you are?" Deacon Fang pinched it with both hands, aiming at the lower point, silently and without any fluctuation.
"What's going on?"
At this moment, Lu Chen passed the first level, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed. A sky-high palm suddenly fell across the sky and pointed directly at him.
In Lu Chen's ears, a violent sound immediately sounded, deafening, making his body shake and his feet unsteady. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Is this really impossible to attack?"
"No, this second level is a test of will. There will never be any material attacks. I won't pay attention to it."
After a while, Lu Chen ignored everything around him and just walked forward. He didn't even take a second look at the fallen palm prints.
Hoo ho ho!
The sword wind suddenly blew up, and the palm print suddenly changed and turned into a giant sword. The light flashed and disappeared into Lu Chen's mind, and even he could not resist.
"Coming."
Feeling a shock in his mind, Lu Chen immediately took a deep breath and concentrated, keeping his mental strength unaffected. His mind was ethereal, with only the soul seal of the universe floating in the air, blooming with the light of yin and yang.
But in his mind, there was always a voice: "Give up the kendo, give up the kendo." The voice was full of temptation, asking Lu Chen to put down the kendo and find another way.
"My will cannot be changed or changed by anyone. I was born to be a sword cultivator. I am now and will be in the future. No mere bewitching voice can shake my path."
With a slight snort, Lu Chen gathered his mental strength to expel everything, making all the dark sides disappear.
After a while, the voice disappeared without a trace.
Opening his eyes, Lu Chen found that he was standing on the steps again. He looked around and saw no one, but he could still hear some cries of pain.
Obviously, not everyone can pass two levels in a row like him.
"No matter what, I have to get a spot."
Putting aside other thoughts, Lu Chen continued to move forward, working hard to get here, he could not fail.
What's more, if he wants to return to the God Realm and avenge his ancestor, he can't do it without strength.
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, a roar suddenly came. Lu Chen looked around and saw a puppet holding a divine sword and slashing at him. It was extremely sharp and contained the power of the God Emperor.
"Little tricks."
Lu Chen smiled when he saw this. With his current strength, it was easy to deal with the strength of the God Emperor. However, he suddenly looked up, and with a thought in his heart, he decided to retain some strength and not be able to solve it with one move.
He swung the giant sword, blocked it a few times, and then, as if he was trying his best, he flew the divine sword away and said softly: "It should be okay, right?"
"This boy's strength seems to be more than that." Above the long steps, Deacon Fang looked at Lu Chen with a gleam in his eyes, and said to Deacon Lin, 'How about I add some more strength?'
"Yes." Deacon Lin nodded. He always spoke so briefly.
"Go!" Deacon Fang pointed at the puppet, and the puppet's power immediately increased by three points, making it infinitely close to that of a monk in the realm of gods.
It waved the divine sword, carrying a sword wind, and slashed at Lu Chen again.
"Why is there still more?"
Lu Chen was surprised when he saw the divine sword flying back. Logically speaking, he should have passed the third level after defeating the puppet, but the puppet not only flew back, but also became stronger.
"Is it those two old guys?"
Looking towards the long steps, Lu Chen seemed to see the figures of Deacon Lin and the two, and he had some suspicion that they were up to something, but he was not sure.
"Perhaps this puppet felt that I was stronger than the monks of the same realm, so its strength increased accordingly." Lu Chen found a reason for himself, after all, he didn't want those two old guys to target him.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen had already swung his giant sword and attacked the puppet. The puppet was very powerful, comparable to the Six Tribulations God Emperor.
But for Lu Chen, it was still not enough, but in order not to attract the attention of Deacon Fang and Deacon Lin, he decided to still retain some strength.
For this reason, it took him ten moves to finally defeat the puppet.
"Should it be okay now?" Lu Chen thought to himself, hoping to pass the third level this time. After all, the strength he showed was already much stronger than that of the ordinary God Emperor.
"Is this kid really only at the level of the God Emperor?"
But he didn't know that Deacon Fang and the other two were still very surprised when they saw him. They looked at each other with some confusion.
"I have already seen that he is indeed only at the level of the God Emperor, but why is he so strong? It makes me a little confused?" Deacon Lin said.
"How about we try him again?" Deacon Fang said hesitantly.
"That's not good. The puppet's strength is now close to that of a god. If you add a little more, it will be as strong as a monk who has just passed the realm of a god. How can this kid resist?" Deacon Lin frowned.
"That's true." Deacon Fang Shen Ling nodded slightly and said, 'In that case, let him pass.' After saying this, he waved his hand, and the puppet that attacked Lu Chen immediately flew upside down.
Come out and disappear.
"Did you pass?"
Seeing the puppet disappear, Lu Chen was pleasantly surprised, and then he saw a long white jade staircase appeared at his feet, with Deacon Fang and Deacon Lin standing at the end.
