Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Xia Haoran finally lived up to expectations and successfully cracked the energy barrier at the bottom of Qinghai Lake, wrapping Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen into the golden energy barrier.
After stepping into the barrier, Xia Haoran couldn't help but be stunned. The blurry scenery he saw outside the formation before was completely different from what he saw at this moment!
This is a small valley whose end can be seen with the naked eye. And around the entire valley, there is a circle of dreamlike hazy mist.
Seeing this scene, Xia Haoran was horrified!
Only he knew in his heart that this dream-like mist was the chaos at the edge of the endless universe. Xia Haoran had already witnessed the power and mystery of this thing in the Chaos Creation Bead before. And what was in front of him was the chaos.
This small valley, precisely because it is wrapped and blocked by a layer of chaos, seems to have formed a small independent world isolated from the world...
"Brother Haoran, this, this..." Beside them, Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen finally recovered from the shock and said in shock as they looked at the scene in front of them.
"Don't rush close to that giant tower and the hazy layer of mist around the valley. Everything else is safe." Xia Haoran's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
The valley is not big.
At the entrance, where Xia Haoran and his three people are standing at the moment, is a square about the size of a football field. In the center of this square, stands a huge dragon-shaped stone sculpture.
No!
To be precise, this should be a giant stone tablet made of unknown ore!
Trial monument!
I saw that the trial monument was divided into several columns, and each column was a set of data, respectively recording the ranking, name, plane of origin and results of the trial tower of the lovelorn.
The results obtained by passing the trial tower are ranked at the top of the trial monument. That is, the first place in the trial is marked with a row of golden characters, the second to tenth place is in silver, and the eleventh place is in silver.
The rankings up to the 100th are all in bronze, and those after the top 100 are all in gray, ending at the 10,000th.
"Fuck!"
When Xia Haoran's eyes swept over the trial monument, his eyeballs suddenly shrank, and at the same time he couldn't help but utter a curse word!
Rank:9;
Name: Qingyang;
Plane of origin: Qingyang Star;
Trial Tower Results: It took 18,210 years to clear the 96th floor of the Trial Tower.
…
As for the other 9,999 pieces of information on the trial tablet, Xia Haoran didn't recognize any of them. But he knew in his heart that everyone who could appear on the trial tablet was a powerful practitioner in the universe.
and the best!
only.
What surprised Xia Haoran was that even the top-ranked being on this trial monument only cleared the ninety-seventh floor, and it took more than 30,000 years.
Seeing this, Xia Haoran felt as if there were thousands of grass and mud horses galloping in his heart. But the only thing that was certain was that clearing this so-called trial tower was not as simple as it seemed on the surface!
"Brother Haoran, what's wrong?" Hearing Xia Haoran's exclamation, Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen, who were not far away, quickly rushed over and asked quickly.
Xia Haoran touched his nose, spread his hands and said, "It's nothing, I saw an acquaintance."
"Acquaintance?" The two of them looked confused.
Not only did they not recognize the 10,000 pieces of data on the trial monument in front of them, but the data showed that the time it took for these 10,000 people to pass the trial tower, the shortest one among them had already spent more than 280 years.
. And Xia Haoran is just a young man in his twenties, so how can he be familiar with the characters on the trial tower from hundreds of years ago?
What a heck!
Xia Haoran shrugged, spread his hands and said: "Nuo, look at the ninth person on the trial monument, Venerable Qingyang from Qingyang Star, that is my master!"
"Ah? Brother Haoran, are you serious?"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen became even more confused.
"How can this be false?" Xia Haoran rolled his eyes and said angrily: "But, I have never met this old man in person, but I was lucky enough to meet him who left on the earth thousands of years ago.
A thought clone, that's all." After saying that, Xia Haoran ignored the two people who were even more messy, turned around and walked towards the other side of the stone monument.
"No wonder!" Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen looked at each other and suddenly realized.
At the end of the Dharma period, the earth's heavenly path collapsed and spiritual energy was lacking. They knew this clearly in their hearts. Putting aside the issue of inheritance interruption, how could Xia Haoran be able to cultivate to this level in just a few years without some adventures and fortunes?
only.
Even if they broke their heads, they never thought that Xia Haoran's adventure would be so great!
Not to mention anything else, just the huge title "ranked ninth" on the trial monument is already impressive... After understanding all this, Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen became even more determined in their hearts.
belief.
That’s right!
Only by following Xia Haoran unswervingly will they have a brighter future! As the saying goes, one person can achieve enlightenment, a chicken or a dog can ascend to heaven, and this is exactly what it means.
On the back of the trial monument, there is a general introduction to the trial tower.
The huge tower towering into the clouds deep in the valley is the trial tower. This trial tower is a comprehensive assessment of the five aspects of a practitioner's understanding, state of mind, will, combat talent, and physical blood. It is also a test of a person's potential and strength.
The assessment. Although the results of the trial tower cannot represent the true combat power of the cultivator, it is definitely a symbol of talent and potential!
There are ninety-nine floors in the trial tower.
The trial monument in front of you is the list of those who have been tested in this trial tower.
In the infinite universe and the vastness of the stars, no one knows the true origins of the trial tower and the trial monument. But it is undeniable that there is no shortage of trial towers on almost every cultivation planet. Whenever you enter the trial tower,
The higher the score, the one with the shortest time will have their name left on the trial monument.
Seeing this, Xia Haoran couldn't help but smile bitterly, and murmured: "What the hell! I thought there was a shocking treasure hidden behind the barrier, but I didn't expect that there was a trial tower and trial monument...
…Brothers, do you feel that this scene is like traveling into a legendary science fiction world?"
"Ha ha……"
Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen laughed wildly at the same time.
Xia Haoran squatted on the ground. He took out three bottles of special mineral water and gave one to each of Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen. At the same time, he unscrewed the cork of the bottle in his hand and took a big gulp, looking into the depths of the valley.
The trial tower was in a daze.
“It’s incredible!”
"Miracle!"
"There are all kinds of wonders in this world!" Xia Haoran looked at Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen, who were beside him with excited faces, and smiled.
He said: "If I'm not wrong, this trial tower is mainly about fighting. Two brothers, I will enter it in a while to explore the truth first. You guys wait here for me to come out and see when the time comes.
Whatever the specific situation is, we’ll make arrangements!”
"Since the trial tower appears here, it will never run away in the short term. What we need to do most now is to enter the trial tower and get the most detailed information and data in the trial tower. For example, the geography of each floor
Map, distribution of monsters, names and characteristics of monsters, attack strength and skills of monsters, etc.”
"So, we need to establish a relatively complete database. According to the introduction on the trial monument, in the trial tower, each level is an independent space. The higher the level, the stronger the monster.
"Speaking of this, Xia Haoran paused slightly, and then said: "The emergence of the trial tower is a great opportunity and good fortune for us cultivators. Perhaps, under this opportunity, we can also take advantage of the opportunity.
Start the craze for martial arts practice among all people."
"All people practice martial arts?"
Ye Shanhe and Wang Zhen's eyes lit up, but then fell silent again.
It is indeed a good thing for all people to practice martial arts, which can enhance the physical fitness of all people; at the same time, the small universe of the human body has been fully developed, which can also greatly improve personal work ability and work efficiency. However, if there is no state agency to control and guide, it will cause problems for the entire society
Unrest and riots are possible.
"Everything has its pros and cons."
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Xia Haoran smiled slightly and said: "Take the trial tower as an example, you have also seen the messages on the trial monument, and you also know that in this vast universe, there are
Human civilization is not only found on our planet. If we enter the tower challenge and don’t make the list, that’s it. Once we do, our planet will be completely exposed to the entire universe and galaxies. How big are we Earthlings?
We all know our abilities. If our roots are exposed, everyone can guess what the consequences will be."
"Just like what was filmed in Hollywood science fiction blockbusters, with the development of technological civilization, human beings are keen to go out of the earth and explore the universe. In fact, in this process, we continue to release various signals and energy waves into the universe
, there’s no telling whether aliens will visit one day in the future. This is certain and inevitable!”
"In order to become stronger, to develop one's own potential as much as possible, and to cope with the irresistible scene in the future, many countries are now studying genetic engineering and life sciences, such as modified humans, genetic warriors, clones, killers, etc. are emerging one after another. And
We in China have unique and advantageous resources like the ancient martial arts training system, so why not use them to develop and grow? Otherwise, if one day we face powerful aliens, what will we use to fight with them?"
"Is it a small weapon?"
"Or a heavy weapon of mass destruction?"
After a slight pause, Xia Haoran continued: "Do you think that kind of thing will still work when a person's cultivation reaches a certain level?"
"It's hidden, it's better to announce it in a structured way." Xia Haoran shrugged and said with a smile: "Personally, I think it is definitely a good thing for all people to practice martial arts. There is no rule without rules, as long as we set the rules in advance
To carry out effective control and guidance, there are legal constraints. Even if some people do evil because of their cultivation, we can still rule people and the country according to the law. After all, as long as you are still living on this planet, no matter how powerful you are,
