At this moment, the assessment elder suddenly said to Lu Chen: "Mujiang, you have passed the fourth assessment and you are the only one who has passed the four assessments. Are you interested in trying the fifth level?"
Lu Chen shook his head and said, "It's not necessary."
The assessment elder smiled and said: "It is indeed not necessary, but what the leader means is that you'd better pass the fifth level, because according to the past rules, everyone in our Huangshan Sect who can pass the fourth level of assessment must try the fifth level."
level, and if you can pass the fifth level, the sect will definitely receive a major reward."
"Major reward?"
Lu Chen asked.
The assessment elder smiled and said: "The top skill of the Huangshan Sect is the Ice Soul Skill. If you can pass the fifth level, you will be qualified to practice the Ice Soul Skill. I heard that this skill is no less than the Black Soul Skill of the Tianhe Sect back then.
As long as you can pass the Shui Zhen Dharma, you don't even need to take the main sect examination four months later and you can directly become an inner disciple of the Wuji Sword Sect."
Everyone was not surprised when they heard that there were such benefits. Obviously they all understood the situation. Lu Chen did not know that there were such benefits in advance, but it was normal to think about it, because he could pass the fourth level.
This person is already qualified to compete as an inner disciple of the Wuji Sword Sect. If he can pass the fifth level, is there any need to doubt this person's strength?
This is equivalent to a direct recommendation without assessment.
It was indeed good to be able to directly become an inner disciple of the Wuji Sword Sect, and Lu Chen would save himself the trouble, but he was still worried that it would attract too much attention, which would be detrimental to him.
At this moment, a core disciple suddenly asked: "Is the Ice Soul Skill really comparable to the Black Water True Skill?
I heard that the Black Water True Technique was a supreme magical skill practiced by Lu Chen, the leader of the Tianhe Sect back then. How could we, the Huangshan Sect, possess such a skill?"
For Lu Chen, the Black Water True Technique can be regarded as a top-notch technique, but compared to the Wu Pulse Magic Technique, the Zhou Tian Divine Technique is still far behind. The techniques practiced by Lu Chen are extremely complex, and many of them are no less than the Black Water Technique.
The martial arts of the Water True Technique and the Black Water True Technique are very powerful mainly because it is part of the Great Five Elements Divine Technique. After the five elements are integrated into one, its power is no less than that of the Pulseless Divine Technique and the Zhou Tian Divine Technique.
Despite this, after all, as part of the Great Five Elements Magic Technique, and it is a technique practiced by Lu Chen, he was so famous in his previous life, so the Black Water True Technique is naturally regarded as the top technique.
These people do not believe that the small Huangshan Sect has such top-notch skills, which is normal.
When the assessment elder heard the disciple's question, he smiled lightly and said: "The Ice Soul Skill is no less than the Black Water True Technique. It's just our guess. Maybe the Ice Soul Skill is stronger. We don't know.
Lu Chen's Black Water True Technique is very powerful. That's because his cultivation is extremely advanced. In his hands, any ordinary martial arts can turn decay into magical power. This does not necessarily mean how strong that martial art is. Otherwise,
Of course, there are so many people in the Tianhe Sect who practice the Five Elements Magic Kung Fu, and many of them also practice the Black Water True Technique, so why are there only one or two people who are particularly outstanding in water-based martial arts?"
When everyone heard what the assessment elder said, although they couldn't refute it, not many people believed it. In their opinion, the Tianhe Sect's skills were difficult to surpass, which was almost superstitious.
But Lu Chen certainly understood that although the Tianhe Sect was strong, it was not so powerful that it far exceeded the three major sects today.
The reason why Chen Lu is so famous is his personal influence.
Seeing that Lu Chen didn't answer, the assessment elder thought that it might be because Lu Chen didn't understand the situation and lacked motivation, so he continued to say seductively: "Ice Soul Skill is an ancient skill obtained by Situ Kong, the founder of our Huangshan Sect.
Patriarch Situ only practiced one Ice Soul Skill and reached the realm of the late Yuanshen. Unfortunately, he later went crazy while practicing and became possessed and died. After the death of Patriarch Situ, the current leader succeeded him and dedicated the Ice Soul Skill to the Wuji Sword Sect.
Now the Ice Soul Skill is one of the supreme skills of the Wuji Sword Sect. Only the most talented disciples of our Huangshan Sect are qualified to practice the Ice Soul Skill. Once you have the talent to practice the Ice Soul Skill, you can be trained by the Wuji Sword Sect.
Pay attention to."
Lu Chen had heard of Situ Kong in his previous life. He was a very famous casual cultivator and was called "the best casual cultivator in the world" by the world. Unexpectedly, after Lu Chen was reincarnated, this man established the Huangshan Sect.
And he actually went crazy and died, which is really unpredictable.
But even if he is the best casual cultivator in the world, he is naturally incomparable to Lu Chen, who was recognized as the best master in the world at that time. However, this person can actually practice to this extent with an ice soul skill, which also proves the ice soul skill from the side.
It is indeed a top-notch technique.
This made Lu Chen a little interested in Bingpo Gong.
"How about it?
Are you ready to pass the fifth level?
If you can pass the first four levels, why not try the fifth level?
This is also the rule of the sect, even if you fail, there is no loss."
The assessment elder said with a smile.
Lu Chen nodded and said: "In this case, the disciple can only follow the elder's arrangement."
At this time, refusing is obviously not a wise choice.
Lu Chen only had a little interest in Bingpo Gong, not that he paid much attention to it, but blindly rejecting it would be a bit ignorant of current affairs.
The current situation is that I would rather fail on purpose when challenging the fifth level than persist in refusing.
When the assessment elder saw that Lu Chen agreed, he didn't feel any surprise and said, "Then come with me now."
Lu Chen and all the disciples followed the assessment elder to a bamboo forest. The bamboo leaves here were white and it was an extremely rare frost bamboo.
Frost bamboo is different from ordinary bamboo. This unique bead can only survive in a cold environment.
The air in this frost bamboo forest seems particularly cold, with a biting frost.
Several people who were injured during the assessment were shivering with cold.
The scenery of Frost Bamboo Forest is still good, but there is a strange black house inside, which is incompatible with the surrounding scenery.
Lu Chen could tell at a glance that the casting material of this house was very strange. It was actually made of black iron essence.
Dark iron essence is an expensive tool-making material, not a building material. It is really strange to use black iron essence to build a house.
Lu Chen asked: "Elder, why is this house built with black iron essence?"
The assessment elder said appreciatively: "You are the first disciple to recognize at a glance the materials used to build this house. Yes, this was the practice room of Patriarch Situ back then."
"Practice room?"
Lu Chen was puzzled, "What does this have to do with the fifth level assessment?"
The assessment elder smiled and said: "The practice room is extremely cold. As long as you can stay there safely for half an hour, you will have passed the assessment."
"Is it that simple?"
The other disciples couldn't help but ask.
"Simple?"
The assessment elder couldn't help but laugh, "If you stay in there for half an hour, you might freeze even harder than the black iron essence."
He paused and then said to Lu Chen: "This assessment is not dangerous. If you can stay in it for half an hour, it proves that you must have the talent to practice Ice Soul Skill. Even if you can't, it doesn't matter.
As long as you send a signal, I can let you out at any time, but if you can't help but come out early, it will be considered a failure."
Lu Chen said: "Understood, let's get started."
The assessment elder didn't say anything else. He walked directly to the house made of black iron, took out a white jade sign with an astonishingly cold air, and fastened it on the door.
There were many formation runes on this gate. Lu Chen could tell that these runes were formations that strengthened the power of water-based exercises. As soon as the gate came into contact with the jade tablet, bursts of light emitted. Soon, the door creaked.
It opened, revealing an empty room inside.
There was nothing inside, nothing but an astonishing cold air. After the door was opened, a lot of white mist even came out of the door.
This is caused by the temperature difference between the air inside and outside the house. The coldness of the frost bamboo forest is still very warm compared to the temperature inside the house. This shows how cold it is inside the practice room.
However, after the assessment elder opened the door to the practice room, the first thing Lu Chen felt was a surprise, because bursts of water-based power emitted from the practice room.
"No wonder Situ Kong wanted to build such a weird training room in such a place with thin spiritual energy. It turned out to be for the original power of the water system here."
Lu Chen suddenly understood the reason for the matter.
He is now absolutely sure that there may be a water spiritual vein hidden under this training room, or a natural cold pool. Situ Kong uses formations to strengthen this spiritual vein, and at the same time prevent the cold energy from overflowing.
The assessment elder said: "Go in now. This practice room must remain closed. It cannot be opened like this all the time."
If it is turned on all the time, the water spiritual power inside will be lost. Lu Chen naturally does not want these spiritual powers to be wasted like this. These spiritual powers containing the original power of the water system are of great benefit to him in practicing the true black water method and must not be wasted in vain.
.
He quickly walked in.
The assessment elder said: "I'm going to close the practice room again. If you feel you can't support it, just bombard the door. I'll open the door for you at any time when I hear the sound."
Lu Chen nodded to express his understanding.
The assessment elder used the jade token in his hand to close the door again.
This practice room is a special place. To test the strength of the elders, the door can only be opened using the jade tablet. It is impossible to forcefully break the door, not even the head can do it.
After the door was closed, Lu Chen spent two minutes observing the practice room and found that the room was full of complex rune formations, and even the floor was covered with such formations.
With his eyesight, he could certainly see that this formation was very powerful, like a spirit-gathering formation that had been strengthened countless times. It seemed that Situ Kong had put a lot of thought into this formation.
The floors and walls are all made of black iron essence, and they fit together perfectly to form a whole.
The moment the door closed, the formation of the entire practice room began to move, and the cold air in the room became even deeper.
