As soon as he entered the door, Zhan Chen felt a surge of sharp golden energy rushing towards him, which made his face feel slightly stinging. However, as a practitioner of metallic energy, Zhan Chen felt very comfortable and began to observe what kind of atmosphere this was.
world.
What you see is desolation. This world is full of swords. There are swords stuck on both the ground and the ceiling.
However, Zhan Chen found that most of those swords were incomplete, and some were even rusty. After countless years, each sword seemed to have its own story and its own glory. But now, they are gathered together.
This constitutes the second level of the Golden Trial Sword Tomb.
The gate leading to the third floor is just opposite, only a hundred meters away from the entrance. However, between these 100 meters, there are 9 disciples struggling to move forward. They are all practitioners of metallic Qi.
, and most of them are disciples of the Golden Elephant Sect that Zhan Chen is familiar with.
Look, it's Senior Brother Zhan who's coming. One of the pass-through disciples got distracted and called out to another pass-through disciple in front of him.
"Idiot, don't be distracted," the disciple in front quickly reminded.
Unfortunately, it was already too late. Suddenly, several remaining swords beside them vibrated together, forming several sword auras, which erupted with lightning speed. Each one was equivalent to a full blow from a strong martial artist, Dzogchen.
The two people who spoke hurriedly raised their swords to respond, but they still couldn't respond in time. They were hit by the sword one after another and fell to their knees on the ground with serious injuries.
One wave after another, more broken swords began to tremble. The two looked at each other and shouted without hesitation: before leaving, they activated the jade talisman in their hands and disappeared into the sword tomb.
middle.
Zhan Chen observed carefully again and found that other disciples were doing their best to resist the continuous attacks from the sword tomb. These attacks came from all directions, even from the top of the head, making people unable to defend themselves. They all resisted these attacks.
It not only requires a high degree of concentration and sharp reflexes, but also requires considerable strength.
Some disciples who are not strong enough have difficulty resisting even one attack, let alone dealing with several sword energy attacks at the same time.
Over time, Zhan Chen discovered another pattern. The closer he got to the intersection on the third floor, the more intense the attacks from the sword energy became, making it difficult to move forward even one step.
He finally understood why, after so long, he came to the second floor and found 9 disciples still staying at this level. In fact, this short distance of a few hundred meters was no more than a thousand meters to them.
Thousands of miles.
Suddenly, he saw a white figure appear at the entrance to the third floor. It was Li Jianchen.
Zhan Chen will never forget his natural talents. Even though he defeated him in one fell swoop at the Lanfeng Ceremony, he did so with the help of his heaven-defying performance of the Eye of Tao and the Wuxiang Golden Body Art. Apart from these
, compared with him, it’s nothing.
At this time, Li Jianchen was also facing the final test of this level. A three-meter-long sword stood at the entrance of the third level. Although it was incomplete, it still exuded a fierce momentum that made people flinch.
At this time, the sword began to vibrate and emit a sword sound that became louder and louder, as if it was preparing for a thunderous strike.
Facing this sword, Li Jianchen's face showed unprecedented solemnity. He understood that this was the final test he would face, and he held the Dragon Song Sword tightly in his hand to confront it.
Suddenly, there was a flash of light on the big sword, and a sword energy came out. As soon as this sword energy came out, other sword energy eclipsed it, as if it was the master of this world.
Sword Intention Zhan Chen couldn't help but scream in surprise. He never expected that a dead object could actually send out a strike containing Sword Intent that only human geniuses can understand. Moreover, this will seemed to be under Li Jianchen's will.
above, forcing this genius to have the urge to retreat.
At this most critical moment, Li Jianchen seemed to realize something, suppressed the instinctive fear in his body, and struck out with his strongest sword towards this sword energy with all his strength.
At this moment, Li Jiandian's martial arts will had reached a sublimation level, growing to the point where it was on par with the martial arts will contained in the great sword.
The two sword energies collided and canceled each other out. Li Jianchen took the opportunity to jump and entered the passage leading to the third floor.
At the entrance, he turned around, pointed the Dragon Sword at Zhan Chen, and shouted loudly: Zhan Chen, I have passed this golden test. As someone who can defeat me, this small challenge should not be yours.
Say it, I'll be waiting for you on the third floor, don't let me down
After saying these words, he turned around again and disappeared into the dark corridor.
Looking at his leaving back, Zhan Chen's eyes were full of fighting spirit. He vaguely felt that Li Jianchen's strength had made a fundamental leap in the process of competing with the sword energy just now. He was afraid that there would be another competition at this time.
His Daluo Golden Body may not be able to defend against his sword.
I have to work hard and realize my sword intention as soon as possible. Zhan Chen thought silently.
Li Jianchen's power made him feel a sense of crisis for no reason. He had a hunch that the aloof young man would become a powerful competitor of him in the future.
Now let's pass this second level first. Zhan Chen murmured, feeling a surge of pride in his heart, and jumped into the sword tomb.
As soon as he entered, there was a sword energy coming towards him. Zhan Chen's eyes narrowed and he slashed out the Tiger Roaring Sword in his hand: Golden Light Sword.
It was not difficult to split the sword energy in half in an instant. So he became more confident and moved towards the finish line step by step.
Along the way, the sword energy attacking him became more and more intensive. However, Zhan Chen had the Golden Light Sword swordsmanship in hand, and his sword-drawing speed was three points faster than that of the same level. Even in the rain of swords and lights, he could still walk leisurely.
In the end, he simply regarded breaking through the level as a process of practicing swordsmanship, and slowly realized the true meaning of gold.
Unknowingly, he came to the front of the guarding sword. He suddenly stood up and stared at it solemnly, gathering all his energy to face the strongest challenge.
The big sword began to vibrate again, and Zhan Chen's nerves were tense to the extreme. Suddenly, he heard a clang and a sword energy struck towards him.
Only when you face it head on can you understand how terrifying this blow is. The sword energy has an extremely domineering momentum, as if it is going to bend Zhan Chen's knees.
Zhan Chen only felt that all the energy in his body was imprisoned and could not be mobilized smoothly. He was secretly shocked: Is this the sword intention on the big sword? It was not at the same level as what he had faced before.
No, I will lose if I continue like this. I can't lose this will. What is the secret of gold? It is indestructible and everything is indestructible.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and resisted the pressure, and swung the sword in his hand with all his strength: "Golden Will, break it for me" and then used the sword technique.
The two sword qi collided together, Zhan Chen did not dare to stop, and hurriedly moved Daluo's golden body, and a dark gold true qi armor was struck on him.
Sure enough, the Golden Light Slash and the sword energy from the big sword only lasted for a moment before they were completely defeated. Then the sword energy from the big sword continued unabated, pressing down on Zhan Chen's head.
Success or failure was decided in one fell swoop. Zhan Chen couldn't help but feel uneasy. The sword energy fell on the dark gold armor and was still cutting into it slowly, as if it was about to break through the energy defense and split his head into two halves.
Cold sweat couldn't help but begin to trickle down his forehead. At the moment of life and death, the verses of the Diamond Sutra suddenly appeared in Zhan Chen's mind, and he began to recite silently in his heart. His shaken heart suddenly became firm and calm.
And this firmness seemed to be transmitted to Da Luo's golden body. The part of the armor on the top of the head that competed with the sword energy suddenly began to absorb the sharp gold energy contained in the surrounding zhenqi armor, and began to become tougher, and continued to
The power of the sword energy was consumed until the will was exhausted.
Zhan Chen felt a sudden relief on his head, and couldn't help but feel happy. He hurriedly took the opportunity to step forward, dodged the big sword, and broke into the corridor leading to the third floor. When he came back to his senses, he only felt the pressure on his back.
The clothes were soaked.
Climbing up the long and dark corridor, he still recalled in his mind the strange transformation of Da Luo's golden body at the moment when he resisted the sword energy.
Suddenly he stopped and shouted excitedly: Could it be the phaseless golden body?
The phaseless golden body is the highest level of the heaven-level defensive martial arts phaseless golden body. However, Zhan Chen has been thinking about it for more than 3 years and has been unable to do it. But at that moment, he felt a breakthrough.
Zhan Chen quickly followed the practice method of the Phaseless Golden Body Art and circulated his true energy again. A golden light flashed across his body, but nothing happened. It seemed to be the same as before.
Is it an illusion? Zhan Chen couldn't help but fall into hard thinking again.
After a long while, he finally realized: I shouldn't stay here for a long time, it's more important to pass the third level trial first.
So he cut off his obsession and continued towards the top of the temple.
