Nine hundred and seventieth chapters actual combat
Among all the princes, the third prince has the highest talent in martial arts and ranks second on the Zhongyun Ranking, second only to Haotian.
King Zhongyun loved him as much as the eldest prince, or even slightly more.
It's just that the third prince's character is not as good as that of the eldest prince, and he will not be able to win over all forces.
Zhou Xingyun's eyes lit up.
As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to roost. Since the eldest prince no longer values him, he will naturally choose another Ming master, right?
He stepped forward, cupped his fists and bowed, and said, "Third Prince, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are becoming more and more charming."
This was an ordinary compliment, but in exchange for it, the Third Prince gave him a cold eyebrow: "Get lost!"
Zhou Xingyun's smile suddenly froze.
He knew that the Third Prince was difficult to deal with, but he wasn't such a bastard, right?
Saying hello actually elicited the word "go"?
However, he was the third prince, so Zhou Xingyun could only swallow his anger and step aside. He couldn't understand why the third prince treated him so badly.
Even if he has a top talent like Haotian under his command, Zhou Xingyun ranks third, which is not bad!
Just when he was puzzled, Haotian also cast a cold look, with threats in his eyes: "Zhou Xingyun, let me remind you first. When you get to Shenliu Cave, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Haotian has said such serious words?
Zhou Xingyun quickly caught up with the two of them and said in a low voice from behind: "I really don't know where Zhou has offended you two. Please give me a clear explanation."
The Third Prince Li was too lazy to pay attention to him. Haotian stamped his feet and said: "Go and ask your sister yourself what good things she did in Yanbo Pavilion!"
Zhou Jingxuan?
It turns out to be her!
"It's not enough to succeed, but it's easy to fail! I want to see what you can do by yourself after entering the Shenliu Cave?" Zhou Xingyun was so angry in his heart.
Subsequently, people from all parties arrived at the scene one after another.
Including Xia Qingchen, he also came to the scene calmly.
Except for a few people who knew him, no one else paid any attention to Xia Qingchen.
Xia Qingchen stood alone in the corner, silently observing the huge pit.
Judging from the information collected by Tingxue Tower, Shenliu Cave is held once every two years, and more than 200 people are allowed to enter each time.
According to the danger level, Shenliu Cave is divided into four areas.
Safe zone, adventure zone, danger zone and death zone!
After two hundred years of exploration, the safe zone and adventure zone have been explored by the geniuses who have entered one after another.
The dangerous zone has also been partially explored by the top geniuses.
Only in the central death zone, no one has dared to step into it.
Because all the geniuses who tried to enter died tragically, and no one survived.
Back then, Madman's Sword accidentally fell on the edge of the death zone and luckily picked up a grain of void dust.
Xia Qingchen's goal is the death zone.
He is not interested in the other three districts!
Morning and noon.
A ray of falling sunlight shines on the extremely deep sinkhole, revealing the extremely smooth cliffs around it.
There is no trace of carvings on the cliff, and it is as smooth as a mirror. Not to mention humans, even monsters who are good at flying over eaves and walking on walls will find it difficult to climb down the cliff.

Suddenly, the earth shook slightly, and a light cavalry group of the size of Wan Xiaoqi galloped from a distance.
Each cavalry unit carries a long ladder on its back.
"Put up the ladder immediately!" Wan Xiaoqi commanded on the spot.
The soldiers took ladders and connected them on the spot, connecting more than ten thousand long ladders into a giant ladder three hundred feet long, and then lowered the ladder into the sinkhole.
"Close the stairs after a cup of tea!" Wan Xiaoqi said loudly.
This means that they can enter the sinkhole.
Haotian and the Third Prince, as well as the recommenders they each brought, were the first to go down in groups of four.
Then came Zhou Xingyun and his chosen Qiu Zifan, followed by the Blue Flower Fairy alone, and then the rest of Fengming's eight sons.
Xia Qingchen didn't hurry up and got off the ladder only when he was at the back.
As soon as he entered the tiankeng, Xia Qingchen felt a hint of coolness. There was obviously no wind around, but his body felt cool.
"What a gloomy and cold environment."
After landing, the ground was pitch black, and it was no exaggeration to describe it as being unable to see my fingers.
You could clearly hear the sounds of people nearby, but you couldn't see anyone.
Suddenly, thousands of feet ahead, a dim green light appeared without warning, illuminating the sinkhole in a miserable green.
At the source of the green light, an old man in white robe faced everyone.
He is no one else, but Huang Zizhen.
It turns out that every time Shenliu Cave is visited, King Zhongyun will send a powerful person from the middle star position to preside over it.
This year it happens to be Huang Zizhen’s turn.
"Those over the age of twenty-three, please leave voluntarily, otherwise you will be responsible for all disasters that occur."
Jinryu Cave is a very special place. There is a kind of dust called Wuxin dust in the air.
It is a companion creature that floats along with the dust of the void when the strong man shatters the void.
It doesn't matter if a young person inhales it, but if an older person inhales it, it will rot the bones from the inside and turn the person into a puddle of flesh.
Even if your cultivation is as high as the middle moon level, you will still die.
This is why, for two hundred years, no one has set foot in the dangerous area of Shenliu Cave.
Because all the older and stronger people are not allowed to enter.
Those who are not old enough will have difficulty reaching the qualifications to enter the danger zone.
"Since there is no such thing, then accept the cultivation test and enter the corresponding area." Huang Zizhen said.
The green light behind him suddenly turned into thousands of small grids with a radius of ten feet, covering everyone in them and separating them individually.
Xia Qingchen is no exception.
The small grid is isolated from all sides, so not only can't you see, but you can't hear what's going on outside.
It's like being locked in a small room.
This is what Xiaoqing said, the test before entering the Shenliu Cave, if you are willing, you can challenge it without limit.
In the center of the room, a clear projection appeared, and there was a line of small words above the head.
"Two hundred years ago, the eighth of Fengming's eight sons was Cui Haojian!"
The projections here are all the geniuses who have participated in Shenliu Cave.
Xia Qingchen has been looking forward to it for a long time. He doesn't need any martial arts and only uses martial arts to fight!
After a while.
With a pop, Cui Haojian's projection disappeared, and a voice appeared in the secret room: "If the challenge is successful, you can enter the adventure area, or continue the challenge and enter a higher area."
It turns out that the test can analyze the strength of the participants and recommend them to the corresponding area.
To avoid a mismatch between strength and region, resulting in life-threatening consequences.
"Continue to challenge!" Xia Qingchen was in a happy mood and continued to fight!
From eighth place, he fought all the way to first place.
Except for the first place, which took a little effort, the rest were easily solved.
At this point, time passes with a cup of tea.
In the outside world, most people passed the challenge and the cubicles dispersed automatically.
The Third Prince was panting and said: "Unfortunately, I bumped into Meng Zhongmei, the second-placed Fengming Eighth Son from the previous session. I was trembling for a while."
Haotian also took a deep breath to relieve his breathing and said: "What I met was the leader of the last Fengming."
Looking at the rest of the people, they were all panting and looking extremely embarrassed.
It turns out that the projection is based on your ranking on the Zhongyun Ranking, and the opponents who appear are almost the same in strength as you.
That's why it's so difficult to fight.
"There are still ten people who haven't come out. There should be no hope for them."
"Well, not even a cup of tea comes out. The more you lose, the less you win! The challenger's physical strength, energy and star power will be consumed, but the projection will not. Over time, the projection will definitely gain the upper hand."
The Third Prince didn't care at first, but when he glanced around, he couldn't help but sneer: "Haha, I knew you couldn't pass the test!"
Haotian followed his gaze and saw one of the ten small cubicles.
Above that cubicle, there was a line of words "Tester, Wang Kai" floating in the air.
Zhou Xingyun also looked over and sneered: "I don't think you have much ability, but you can't pass such a simple test! You are a waste who only relies on your power!"
The Blue Flower Fairy pursed her red lips slightly and sighed bitterly: "You have really wasted all my hard work."
Because of Xia Qingchen's recommendation, Blue Flower Fairy and the Third Prince completely fell out and almost suffered insult.
But in the end, Xia Qingchen did not exert the recommended effect.
At this time, Huang Zizhen said: "Those who have already come out, go to the corresponding area. You only have half a month. How many useful things you can find depends entirely on you!"
Everyone who dared to stay rushed into the huge darkness, scrambling to seize the opportunity.
Only Xia Qingchen is still practicing without arrogance or impatience, honing the star power in his body. (Haha, it’s too early to be happy, I only wrote one update at night, and I will guarantee two updates at noon tomorrow)
