Chapter 170 The difference between genius and mediocrity
Ji Tianxing looked at the curly hair and the burnt cuffs, and frowned fiercely.
"Isn't it?"
"It's just a mid-month quiz, but Deacon Han is so cruel?"
"The power of the first test is so powerful. Wouldn't those weak disciples be injured or even killed?"
He knew very well that the flaming sword light shot out from the walls on both sides was very violent, basically equivalent to the attack of a fourth-level Tongxuan realm master.
With his current fighting power, he could easily defeat the masters of the third level of Tongxuan Realm, but he was still in such a mess by the flaming sword light.
This made him have to wonder, if the other disciples triggered the mechanism and were attacked by the six flaming swords, wouldn't they turn into kebabs?
Ji Tianxing stood still, frowning and thinking.
"No! If even I can't get through, the other eight disciples will definitely fail."
"Deacon Han just wants to test us, not take our lives, so this passage cannot be broken through forcefully. There must be a way to break it."
"I haven't listened to a single lesson from Deacon Han, but the other disciples have listened to the class for half a month. They must have learned the method of cracking. Deacon Han just wants to test whether they have studied hard..."
Thinking of this, Ji Tianxing understood Han Qiaosheng's intention.
He began to carefully observe the bluestone passage, study the formation patterns and symbols on the walls, and ponder the method to crack the large formation.
The bluestone passage fell into silence, and time passed quietly.
Ji Tianxing observed carefully for a quarter of an hour and finally saw the clues.
He thought hard for another quarter of an hour, and finally found a way to crack the formation, and also made new discoveries.
On the surface, it seemed that he needed to break through the bluestone passage, avoid the various hidden weapons and formations in the passage, and finally open the black stone door opposite.
But in fact, he discovered that after cracking the formation of the bluestone passage, a very hidden small passage would be opened.
Passing through that small passage, you can go directly to the center of the Zimu Xuan Formation, where ten identity tokens are stored!
After understanding this, Ji Tianxing suddenly smiled and his eyes became playful.
"Haha, Deacon Han really has good intentions!"
"As expected of the Son-Mother Mysterious Formation, there are still various small formations within the big formation, hiding mysteries!"
"Only mediocre people can break through the bluestone passage and open the black stone door."
"A true genius can reach the center of the formation directly without breaking through the passage, let alone opening the stone door!"
After chuckling in a low voice for a while, Ji Tianxing stopped smiling and his expression became serious and focused.
He waved his hand and shot out several golden primeval energy, which sank into the bluestone wall and began to break the formation.
…
at the same time.
In a dimly lit bluestone passage.
Yi Mo was walking confidently, breaking through the bluestone passage and rushing towards the black stone door on the opposite side.
He did not rush in blindly, nor did he walk in a straight line. Sometimes he moved forward, sometimes he retreated, and occasionally he moved left and right.
His feet were taking profound and mysterious steps, and he was silently reciting a step formula.
"Advance three and retreat one, left six and down five, Qian two and Kun four... If you do it empty, you will enter Zhongyuan in real time, and if you do it empty, you will retreat to Yangque..."
Obviously, Yi Mo followed this formula to move forward and keep moving forward in the bluestone passage.
In just a quarter of an hour, he passed through the bluestone passage and arrived at the black stone door without even triggering a hidden weapon mechanism.
When Yi Mo stood under the black stone door, his tense nerves finally relaxed, and a confident smile appeared on his face.
"Hahahaha... I, Yi Mo, am indeed a genius. Not only is I proficient in alchemy, but I also have such superb qualifications in formation!"
"In the past half month, I went to listen to Deacon Han's lectures every day and worked extremely hard. Now it seems that my hard work will pay off immediately, and I will probably win the first place!"
"The Seven Mysterious Techniques taught by Deacon Han are general formulas for deciphering various formations. Fortunately, I had the foresight to memorize the Seven Mysterious Techniques and memorized them like a stream."
"As I expected, the hidden weapons and formations deployed by Deacon Han in this bluestone passage contain the secrets of the Seven Mysteries."
"It only took me half a quarter of an hour to identify the formation in this passage, which is the fourth of the Seven Mysteries."
"I only need to follow the formulas of the Fourth Mystery and I can pass the test easily! I admire my genius and wit, hahahaha..."
Thinking of this, Yi Mo became more confident, with a proud smile on his face.
He groped for a moment on the left side of the black stone door, opened a secret compartment on the wall, and found a palm-sized black roulette wheel.
The shape of the wheel is like a gear, which is the opening mechanism of the black door.
Yi Mo turned the gear mechanism without hesitation, and the thick and heavy black stone door opened "squeaking".
"Whoa!"
Yi Mo did not dare to waste time and rushed out of the black door as fast as the wind.
The next moment, he rushed into a wide circular hall and stopped quickly.
I saw that this hall was fifty meters in diameter and was surrounded by bluestone walls.
There are ten black stone doors on the surrounding wall.
In addition to him, three black stone doors have also been opened.
There were three disciples standing at the door of each stone gate, looking around with confusion like him.
When Yi Mo recognized the three disciples, his expression suddenly changed, and the confidence and pride in his heart instantly disappeared.
"Shi Jingcheng? Nie Hao? Wei Jinhong?"
"You three actually broke through the passage and passed the first test?"
He thought he was the first to break through the passage, but he didn't expect the three disciples to be faster than him!
Shi Jingcheng and Nie Hao also saw Yi Mo and immediately showed playful smiles.
"Haha, Yi Mo, you are too slow, you can only rank fourth."
"The first test is so simple. You can pass it as long as you memorize the Seven Mysteries. Is there anything surprising about it?"
"Look, someone else has passed the first test."
Sure enough, a black stone door not far away opened, and a young disciple came out.
In the next hundred breaths, the black stone doors continued to be opened, and disciples came into the hall one after another.
Before long, eight disciples gathered in the hall.
Only the two stone doors have not been opened, and Ji Tianxing and Lu Mingyang have also disappeared.
Seeing this scene, several disciples smiled jokingly or scornfully, and started talking unscrupulously.
"Hahahaha, as expected, that boy Ji Tianxing is going to be at the bottom!"
"Yes! He hasn't even attended a single lesson in the past half month. He probably doesn't even know what the Seven Mystical Techniques are, right?"
"Hehe, last month he got the first place in the assessment, and he became so bloated that he didn't know who he was. He couldn't even pass the first level. There will be something exciting to watch later!"
"That kid Lu Mingyang didn't even come out. He swept the floor for half a month and his brain was so swept that he couldn't even pass the first level."
"Hahahaha... That's ridiculous! Ji Tianxing and Lu Mingyang, these two losers, are going to be extremely embarrassed today!"
