Chapter 427 Sitting in the well and watching the sky
There are no more than one hundred monks still standing in the arena today. Compared to the first level of the test of mythical beasts and illusions, this second level is completely focused on personal combat effectiveness and diversity of means.
Although it is difficult to defeat enemies who use the same moves and techniques as you, it is not impossible. Almost all the people who can come here are the proud ones of their respective forces, and they naturally have some trump cards in their hands.
Therefore, the number of people reduced by this mirror test is not as terrible as the first level. Among all the teams, the situation is the most tragic than that of Li Mu. The weakness of the Cangyun Empire's overall lack of foundation in the cultivation world is vividly and exquisitely reflected in them.
.
"Brother Li, I really hurt you this time. I underestimated the enemy too much. After being praised for a few times in the sect, I thought I could really be on an equal footing with other young monsters in the immortal world. I didn't expect the gap to be so big.
"
Gao Ye, who was panting heavily and even standing a little unsteady, said apologetically to Li Mu that the chief disciple of the Xuantian Sword Sect finally understood what a real evildoer was.
He barely managed to pass two levels after using up all his trump cards. Especially in the first level, the iron-gnawing divine beast was essentially the work of Li Mu alone. At most, he only served as a foreshadowing.
But even the test that he thought was as difficult as climbing to the sky did not let peers like Chi Xiaotai and Su Fenqiao lose even a strand of black hair. In such a comparison, even he had to accept the defeat and consider himself inferior.
people.
"Yes, in the battle just now, if I hadn't been lucky, I would have died like the elder. We still overestimated our capabilities."
Wang Yao, who was more seriously injured, collapsed on the ground, with blood oozing from his chest and abdomen. Li Mu quickly took out two high-level healing pills and gave them to him, which alleviated the situation.
"Everyone, the purpose of this secret realm is only to select suitable candidates, not to take your lives. I think some of you no longer have the ability to continue fighting, so I will give you a chance to withdraw. If you feel that you
If you can no longer participate in the subsequent tests, then tell me now and I will send you out."
Just when the momentum of Li Mu and the others was low, Feng Xuanhuang on the high platform in the center of the arena actually said something like this. To Gao Ye and Wang Yao, it sounded like a rule tailor-made for them.
Although quitting midway seemed to lack the so-called backbone of a monk, neither of them was pedantic. They knew that their own strength was not comparable to that of others present, and to insist on it for the sake of face was a contempt for their own lives.
Moreover, in the eyes of Gao Ye and Wang Yao, if the two of them voluntarily quit, it would increase Li Mu's confidence in subsequent tests.
After all, based on their understanding of this great hero of the Cangyun Empire, they would definitely not abandon their teammates in the event of danger. At that time, they would only become a burden to Li Mu, and their conscience would become even more uneasy.
And to say the least, compared to the missing elders of the Vajra Sect and other people who lost their lives after failing to pass the test, they are already too lucky. Returning to the sect, learning from the pain, and redoubling their efforts to improve their cultivation is the only way.
Their wisest choice at this time.
"Brother Gao, Junior Brother Wang, are you?"
The look in his companion's eyes had already made Li Mu guess most of it. First, the elder of the Vajra Sect disappeared, and then Bai Yu'an was poisoned. Then the other members died and were injured. Such a tragic situation made Li Mu himself unable to remain calm.
At this time, Gao Ye and Wang Yao had to withdraw early, which made the already sad and confusing mood even lower, and a sense of powerlessness suddenly surged into their hearts.
He cast his gaze on Chi Xiaocai, who was as dazzling as a fairy, and then swept across the imposing seven people in Shuidao, as well as Su Fenqiao who seemed to be invisible forever, plus the ghostly Qinling Ghost Capital and other powerful forces in the distance.
, can I really defeat so many evil geniuses from the fairy world by myself, and finally obtain the human emperor's treasure?
Li Mu was really unsure. No matter which one of these opponents he singled out, he could shock the entire party. Could it be that, as Gao Ye said, he was just sitting on his own and watching the sky?
In the battle of Qinglan City, he became famous. He killed the monks of the Infinite Realm and fought against the invincible Blood Sea Dharma. He almost turned the tide of the war with the power of one person. Everyone praised himself as the hero of the empire, but is this really the case?
In the end, it was obviously Lan Wanyao's possession that enabled me to turn the tables. I was able to survive in brutal battles mostly because of the help of the simulation system, but during this period I felt like I was lost, taking the compliments from all directions as nothing more than the help of the simulation system.
It's because of my own abilities.
When Gao Ye recruited himself to participate in the treasure competition, he was even a little proud in his heart, thinking that he could easily lead his teammates away like in the previous game, but the reality was so cruel.
Watching his companions leaving one by one, but unable to do anything about it, this feeling completely made Li Mufan realize that he didn't know when he lost his respect for the path of cultivating immortality and began to be blindly arrogant.
Takaya's team has reached this point and created an irreversible situation. He actually has an unshirkable responsibility.
"Brother Li, Brother Li, cheer up."
Looking at Li Mu, whose eyes were a little distracted, Gao Ye was worried. It was true that he was too blind when he formed a team to participate in the treasure hunt this time, which led to the current tragic situation, but even if someone was responsible for this, it should not be Li Mu.
"Brother Li, now is not the time to be sad. You must go on our behalf to obtain the Human Emperor's treasure, otherwise the sacrifices of the elders and the others will become meaningless."
"Moreover, Yu An is still poisoned. This space was established by the Fuxi clan. The old man must have a way to remove the iron tree's poison. As long as you can win the final victory, Yu An will still be saved."
Wang Yao's urgent calls and He Gaoye's heartfelt encouragement made the distracted Li Mu finally regain his breath. The heart of the Holy Dao, tempered by the world of mortals in Yunlan Sect, played a huge role at this moment.
.
"That's right, Li Mu, Li Mu, why did this little setback defeat you? The threat of the 'Blood' organization is still there, and your family may fall into crisis again. Qingzhu and Xiaoyu are all trying their best to save you.
I have become stronger, but why am I still here feeling sorry for myself?”
Courage and confidence returned to Li Mu bit by bit. When the slump in his eyes faded away, the handsome young man standing with his sword on the battlefield came back again.
"Well, Brother Gao and Junior Brother Wang, you can rest assured and go out to recuperate. I will definitely find a way to cure Junior Sister Bai. This inheritance and treasure of the Fuxi clan must also belong to our Cangyun Empire."
