"Thank you, Junior Sister, for rescuing me. I'm lucky to have met you. I just saw the smoke from afar and came here to try my luck." Tan Tai Mingyue said with a wry smile. After expressing her gratitude, she started to eat the meat in big mouthfuls. She just wanted to fill her stomach now and would talk about anything else later. There will basically be no problems on Lin Aoxue's side, but she still has to be on guard against other trial-takers. Starting from the second day, the number of eliminations doubled, especially for the trial-takers in the snowfields and deserts. In less than a short while, thousands of people were eliminated. Some people survived the night, and when they woke up the next morning, they were still dead. This survival trial is really torturous. Chapter 357 Killing Trial (6500 words) After eating the wolf meat, Tan Tai Ming Yue sighed with a satisfied look on her face. "Ah! I didn't expect that I would have such an embarrassing day. This survival trial is the most difficult level among these levels. It requires too much luck from one's personal experience." Lin Aoxue nodded in agreement. To be honest, compared to this kind of trial that tests luck and brains, those trials that can be passed by force and comprehension are simply too easy. She also felt that this level must be the most torturous test among the nine levels.
In fact, except for Ye Liuyun and those experienced cultivators, most people think that this level is the most difficult. The difficulty lies in the fact that this is an unfamiliar area for them and they cannot control their own destiny. If you have no experience and rely entirely on your own luck and attempts, then you will definitely be confused. But at the same time, this stage allows most of the arrogant young cultivators to understand their own shortcomings. This is the case for many young cultivators in the cultivation world. They grew up in luxury, never suffered any hardship, and had a smooth journey. They felt that they were afraid of no one and that no one was better than themselves. But now, this hurdle has crushed the self-esteem of many of them. In fact, it is better this way. Losing the so-called dignity here is better than dying at the hands of others in the future because of one's own arrogance and ignorance. In fact, the Supreme Induction Sect had discussed the necessity of this survival trial when arranging the trial projects. The reason why it was retained in the end was because of a word from Ancestor Tianyi. She said that when one has sufficient aptitude and cultivation, the brain is more important. They organized this trial not as a grand event for the Nanling cultivation community, but more accurately as a way to select the next generation of successors for their own Tai Shang Ganying Sect. Patriarch Tianyi and Tianjian and the others were actually not native cultivators of the Northern Territory. They all entered the Supreme Induction Sect through the Nanling event and then took charge of the sect. "According to this situation, I think it will be almost done tomorrow. This level is completely different from the other levels." Lin Aoxue said helplessly. Tan Tai Ming Yue nodded, but suddenly she glanced at Lin Aoxue. She had always wanted to say something to Lin Aoxue. She felt that today might be a good opportunity, otherwise, there might not be any chance for them to be alone together later. "Well, Junior Sister Lin, I have a question I have always wanted to ask you. You usually stay with Junior Sister Ye, so I can't say it. But today, I want to take this opportunity to ask you." After a moment of silence, Tan Tai Mingyue suddenly spoke. When Lin Aoxue heard this, a speechless expression immediately appeared on her face. She knew that Tan Tai Mingyue would definitely not give up. "If you, Senior Sister Tan Tai, want to ask about something about men and women, then I think you'd better not say anything. I know that you were a man before, but what I want to say is that I am a normal woman and I don't have any special fetishes." Lin Aoxue blocked what Tan Tai Mingyue wanted to say with her words. Are you kidding? She is a woman with experience in love, so how could she not understand what Tan Tai Ming Yue wanted to say? Instead of waiting for her to say it and making both of them embarrassed, it is better to stop there. "This? Okay, I understand. I can only say that it is fate. Junior Sister Lin and I are not destined to be together." Tan Tai Mingyue sighed heavily. This time, everything has been made clear. Tan Tai Ming Yue is also a gifted child. Although she has become a woman, the change of gender has not shaken her will. She has always felt that gender is not such an important thing for a monk, but if it is related to feelings, then it may have a big impact.
"Well, I have another question. Are you and Junior Sister Ye really sisters? Or has one of you experienced the last incident in the Black Wind Mountains?" Tan Tai Mingyue asked again. In fact, she had judged before that Lin Aoxue might be a man, but she didn't mind. After all, she looked at Lin Aoxue with a male mindset. Since it can't be done now, just talk about some of the questions that puzzle her. In fact, this question is not something that cannot be discussed. Anyway, the last incident in the Black Wind Mountains has messed up the gender of the human race in Nanling. No one will deliberately worry about whether you were a man or a woman before. "Eh? This? Senior Sister Tan Tai, do you think I don't look like a woman?" Lin Aoxue felt inexplicably unhappy. "Ah? Don't get me wrong. I just feel that when you and Junior Sister Ye stand together, there is always a sense of contrast and incongruity. How should I put it? You are sisters, but the radiance revealed in your eyes is more like a kind of love." Tan Tai Mingyue explained quickly. Lin Aoxue was about to roll her eyes. "Doesn't this just mean that I'm not as feminine as Liuyun? Can I compare with her? Alas!" Lin Aoxue felt some inexplicable emotions. After thinking for a moment, she replied. "One of us was indeed a man before, but as for who it was, I think Senior Sister Tan Tai doesn't need to be so entangled. If you meet someone you really like in the future, you won't be entangled in everything about her past." This answer is definitely better than directly telling Tan Tai Mingyue that Ye Liuyun is my husband. Tan Tai Ming Yue was startled, then thought about it again. "Eh? That's true. Okay, I won't ask anymore. I hope I can get through the day safely." Tan Tai Ming Yue smiled with relief. This girl, every word and action, is truly charming. No wonder so many female disciples of Yun Sect like her, and even quite a few male disciples are attracted to her. All I can say is that when a person's charm reaches an extreme, it becomes gender-neutral lethality. This guy's beauty is probably unmatched in the entire Nanling cultivation world. As time passed slowly, the survival trial soon came to an end. It would naturally be faster to eliminate only 10,000 people. Around the afternoon, the voice of Fairy Taiyin rang in everyone's ears. "The fourth level, the survival trial ends here. The 40 people who survived will enter the next level, which is called the killing trial. This level will eliminate people. The people will be randomly assigned to different battlefields in groups of . Only half of the people in each battlefield can pass. There are no restrictions except that the evil methods banned by the cultivation world cannot be used." As soon as these words were spoken, the trial participants who were struggling in other living spaces all breathed a sigh of relief. "Damn, we're finally leaving this damn place. I never want to come to a place like this again." Some people were teleported away while cursing. But the only one is Ye Liuyun on the island. "No, I haven't had enough fun yet. How come it ends so soon? You guys are so useless. Ten thousand people were eliminated in two days. How can this be called a big deal?" Ye Liuyun said unhappily. Liu Zhen and Su Xiangxue on the side were at a loss whether to laugh or cry. They both wanted to say that only you were treating this place as a vacation. They didn't want to play this kind of game. "Okay, Junior Sister Ye, we'll see you later. Thank you for your care." Su Xiangxue greeted her with a smile. Liu Zhen also said some words of thanks, and then the three of them were sent away by the power of rules here. Since the trial space is created by formations and restrictions, it is controlled by artificial rules, so there is no possibility of fatigue or death. This can be regarded as an advancement in the cultivation civilization. There was no such guarantee in the previous session. In the previous Nanling event, there were quite a few cultivators who died unexpectedly. That’s why when Ye Liuyun and the others came out of Yunzong, Fang Mingyu said that there was a risk of death.
However, the risk of death this time is not in the competition, but in the invasion of the Anti-Immortal Alliance. The fifth level is the killing trial. An aura of solemnity and murderousness spread out from the majestic and magnificent palace complex. It seemed like an underground palace. The light was dim, with only the candles on the surrounding walls illuminating the passages and side halls. The atmosphere here is very depressing. There is a scent of bright red blood all over the ground and the air is filled with a bloody smell. Ye Liuyun's figure appeared out of nowhere in a passage, and she smelled an unpleasant odor as soon as she appeared. "Such a strong smell of blood. Is this just the beginning? Could it be, like the scene in the game, purely used to decorate the atmosphere?" Ye Liuyun looked at the blood under his feet and it felt like the real thing. This trial can also be described as a narrow road encounter. This palace is interconnected in all directions. If we meet in the passage, there will inevitably be a fight. The area where Lin Aoxue was located was a floating island area, and they were randomly assigned to different floating islands, with a maximum of two people on each floating island. The situations in each of the forty battlefields were different. "Eh?" Lin Aoxue looked around, then turned around and looked behind her. The embarrassed look of the fourth level was gone, and everything returned to its original appearance. However, the anger accumulated in the fourth level made many cultivators want to vent it out at this level. "Hahaha, interesting. The possessor of heavenly-level qualifications, you must be a disciple of the four major sects in the Southern Region. Tell me your name. I am Manlong from the Eight Desolate Supreme Palace." Behind Lin Aoxue stood an extremely burly young man. This guy was estimated to be nearly four meters tall, extremely large in build, and exuding an aura like that of a wild beast. This guy might bring great pressure to Lin Aoxue again, because he is a strong man who is half a step away from the fourth pole, not just a peak of the Dao Palace. "Such a strong aura, half a step to the Four Greatest Pole? It seems that this little girl is in big trouble. I think she will give up fighting with him at the first opportunity." The senior members of the Supreme Induction Sect all felt that the opponent Lin Aoxue encountered was too powerful and difficult to deal with. Or they have no confidence in Lin Aoxue. But Lin Aoxue seemed to be in a bad mood, mainly because she was too frustrated in the previous level, and she wanted to have a good fight. "Yun Zong, Lin Aoxue, let me learn from you, fellow Daoist." Lin Aoxue drew out his Xuan-level weapon and activated the power of Dao Palace, allowing his condition to reach the extreme at this moment. The most important thing was that Lin Aoxue's aura suddenly increased a little. She seemed to have reached the middle stage of foundation building from the early stage. "Has she broken through the realm? Strange, why does this woman's aura feel much stronger after only breaking through a small realm? And others have only one Taoist palace, but she has a group of them? Damn it, is this the special thing about heavenly-level talent? And this phantom that makes people shudder." Manlong was originally full of confidence, but after seeing the power fluctuations that erupted from Lin Aoxue, he became a little unconfident. Not only that, after being fully armed, Lin Aoxue used another secret method. "Secret method: Three flowers gather at the top of the head, the first transformation is human spirit transformation." Lin Aoxue pinched the hand seal and three flowers of different colors diffused above her head. One of the flowers lit up with a strange light, and then Lin Aoxue's power fluctuations suddenly doubled. It’s no joke that Lin Aoxue’s basic realm strength has doubled. This is one of the secret techniques of the Yun Sect, which is used to enhance combat effectiveness. If the three flowers are gathered together, combat effectiveness can be tripled, but it puts a greater strain on the body. "A secret technique to increase strength? This little girl is only in the foundation-building stage, but she has so many tricks." Everyone watching the show in the hall was stunned. Lin Aoxue took action. With a whoosh, she rushed towards the barbarian dragon. Although this barbarian dragon was frightened by Lin Aoxue's feathered fairy shadow, this guy was a little different from the others.
Lin Aoxue swung a sword with a terrifying sword light towards the barbarian dragon, but the barbarian dragon simply swung his sword and deflected Lin Aoxue's attack, and his arm was not hurt at all. "Such a hard body? This guy? Is he, like Liuyun, a cultivator who focuses on the body?" Lin Aoxue was stunned when she saw her attack being bounced off. The barbarian dragon smiled confidently, then raised his other big hand and slapped Lin Aoxue suddenly. The oppressive feeling from this slap was extremely strong; it was no longer the oppressive feeling of the Dao Palace realm. Lin Aoxue dodged at the first opportunity. It could be seen from this attack that the opponent's defense was extremely strong. She could only rely on her speed to deal with him. “Haha, Manlong is the one with the strongest physical body among the new generation of disciples in our Eight Desolations Supreme Palace. Moreover, he has pure earth spiritual roots and thick earth spiritual body. The difference between their realms is so great. This little girl is too self-righteous. It seems that she is going to lose.” The Palace Master of the Eight Desolations Supreme Palace laughed complacently. They all knew that Lin Aoxue had definitely been tacitly accepted as a disciple of the Supreme Induction Sect. If she were to be eliminated in public, it would naturally be a slap in the face of the Supreme Induction Sect. However, they also knew that even if Lin Aoxue was eliminated, it would not affect anything. It is not shameful to lose when fighting against a person who is half a step away from the Four Extremes during the Foundation Establishment Stage. “It’s not shameful even if a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator loses against a Half-Step Four Extremes cultivator. I’m just afraid that if your disciple loses unexpectedly, that would be shameful.” Great Elder Tianmu retorted with a smile. When Song Qingtian heard this, he thought it was a joke. "Haha? Fellow Daoist Tianmu, I have something to say to you about what you said. Do you dare to make a bet with me?" Song Qingtian stood up and said proudly. Tianmu was stunned. "Bet? What bet?" "It's simple. Just bet on who will win between the two of them. If Manlong loses, I see that this little girl has a pure wind spiritual root. I have a top-grade mysterious sword with wind attribute, the Fengxi Sword. If I lose the bet, I will give this sword to this little girl." Song Qingtian said with a smile. This is a top-grade mysterious weapon. Even in the Northern Territory, it is not an ordinary item. It is quite suitable to be used as a bet. Tianmu thought about it and then asked back. "Then if I lose, Palace Master Song, what do you want?" Song Qingtian chuckled. "It's simple. If you lose, when the time comes to select outstanding disciples, you must let me, the Eight Desolations Supreme Palace, choose one first. But don't worry, I will definitely not accept the disciple you have chosen." Song Qingtian laughed. Tianmu was stunned. The disciple they had already chosen was obviously Lin Aoxue, plus a few others with earth-level qualifications. As for those with yellow-level qualifications, their Tai Shang Ganying Sect did not say that they must have them. They have no shortage of yellow levels. Tianmu looked at the ancestor Tianyi, who did not refuse, so he nodded. It was impossible for them to take in so many outstanding disciples, so they just considered it as a favor to the Eight Desolations Supreme Palace. They didn't suffer much loss anyway. "Well, Lin Aoxue and several others with earth-level qualifications, Palace Master Song, forget it. As for others with qualifications below yellow level, you can choose any one you like, we will never stop you." Tianmu said with a smile. When Song Qingtian heard this, he laughed. "It's settled then. Everyone here, as well as our friends in the Holy Land, should have heard it. Don't go back on your word when the time comes." After saying this, Song Qingtian sat down again and continued to watch the battle. Looking at Lin Aoxue's side, the battle there was extremely dangerous. The barbarian dragon was like a monster, rushing around rampaging, and a random blow could make the ground of the floating island shake continuously.
Cracks appeared on their floating island. Relying on her speed, Lin Aoxue dodged one blow after another, but her attacks failed to break through the barbarian dragon's defense, not even enough to scratch it. "Damn, my attack power is not enough, the gap is too big. Secret method: Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, Earth Spirit Transformation." Lin Aoxue opened up a large distance and released the secret method again. Her basic strength doubled again. This time, the improvement was doubled based on the human spirit transformation. Lin Aoxue's basic combat power should have reached the Nascent Soul stage, and then coupled with the enhancement effect of her Immortal Body, her combat power instantly soared to a level that was enough to shake the Barbarian Dragon. Lin Aoxue slashed across the air with a sword. The destructive sword light forced Manlong to be a little more serious. Manlong raised his hand and punched the sword fiercely.
