Chapter 1019: Trial (Part II)
"Use a weapon to kill the Akajiri horse monkey, assess: pass!" Just as Fang Yi felt the increase in the spiritual power in his body, that voice suddenly came out of his mind again.
"Hey, can't you use weapons in trials?"
Fang Yi couldn't help but shout, the Akajiri horse monkey moved as fast as the wind, and its body was as hard as iron, if it weren't for the broken blade on his body that had been handed down from ancient times, Fang Yi wouldn't have been able to deal with it at all.
"You can use a weapon, but you use it in the wrong way, and you are assessed as passing. The voice rang out.
"What is the role of comprehensive assessment?" Fang Yi asked.
"The evaluation is divided into five levels, which are fail, pass, good, excellent, and perfect!" The voice explained: "If you fail more than three times, you will fail the trial, there is no additional reward for passing, and the remaining three will get trial prizes!"
"Can you fail more than three times?"
Fang Yi pursed his lips when he heard this, if it was according to the standard of voice, I am afraid that if his performance just now was not up to par, he would have been killed by the Akajiri horse monkey a long time ago, where would he still have a chance or hear these words.
"Normally, failing a grade means death!" The voice was very honest, the same as Fang Yi thought.
"You mean, the trial has to continue?" Fang Yi released his divine sense, vigilantly observed the surroundings, and said, "Why is there an ancient Akajiri horse monkey here, and how has it survived to the present?"
"The trial is not over, and the trial will not end until the comprehensive assessment is above the passing grade. ”
The voice replied, "The Akajiri horse monkey that appeared in the trial is only a remnant of its spirit, its physical body has long since died, and its strength is less than one thousandth of that of the ancient period. ”
"The strength is only one-thousandth of when you were alive?"
Hearing the words in his mind, Fang Yi was suddenly speechless, the spirit alone almost killed himself, if it was a living Akajiri horse monkey, then he would not have the slightest power to fight back in front of it.
"The trial continues!" the voice sounded in Fang Yi's head.
"Hey, what's the monster down there?"
Fang Yi hurriedly asked, as the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the other party can survive a hundred battles, even the ancient Akajiri horse monkey, that is, the Monkey King in Journey to the West, has appeared, Fang Yi doesn't know what kind of test is waiting for him behind.
"Grandma, if you say more, you'll die?"
Fang Yi didn't wait for the voice to answer, he couldn't help but mumble a sentence in his mouth, but Fang Yi's divine sense had always been released from the outside of his body, and at the same time, he was still holding the broken blade in his right hand, although he could only barely get a passing assessment when he used a weapon, it was better than giving away his life.
However, in the next moment, Fang Yi knew that he didn't need to ask that voice anymore, because Fang Yi, who was talking, felt a tremor on the ground, and from dozens of meters in front of him, a behemoth rushed towards him.
This is a monster with a body size of more than two meters high and three meters long, the body is a bit like a cow's body, but it only has one foot, the toes are huge like a millstone, the monster has a face that looks a bit like a dragon, there is a single horn on its head, a pair of eyes are like copper bells staring at Fang Yi, standing on the ground with one leg, Fang Yi can clearly feel the shaking of the earth.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, this, this is the fucking Kui Niu?" Fang Yi was no stranger to the appearance of this monster, because on many bronzes from the Spring and Autumn Period that he had seen, there was the image of this monster, that is, the legendary Kui Niu.
Legend has it that Kui Niu's face is like a dragon, the voice is like thunder, only one foot, it is said that the Yellow Emperor killed Kui according to the instructions of the Nine Heavens Xuannu, and made a war drum with its skin, Kui Long is also known as the horned dragon.
Most of the images of Kui Niu that Fang Yi saw were the Kui Niu patterns seen on bronzes.
In the decoration of bronze ware in the late Shang Dynasty and the Western Zhou Dynasty, the kui dragon pattern is one of the main ornaments, and the image is mostly a long strip of Zhang Yu and curly tail, and the shape is suitable for the structural line of the bronze veneer, mainly with straight lines, supplemented by arcs, with an ancient beauty.
But unlike the beautiful Kui Niu pattern on the bronze, the Kui Niu that appeared in front of Fang Yi at this time was filled with a strong killing intent, and when it was still more than twenty meters away from Fang Yi, the dragon suddenly let out a roar, shaking the surrounding air with layers of ripples.
Just as Kui Niu let out a roar, Fang Yi only felt that his face was hit by a train, and the huge impact force knocked his body backwards and fell heavily on the ground more than ten meters away.
After realizing that the monster on the opposite side was Kui Niu, even if Fang Yi was prepared, he was attacked by this sound wave, but Fang Yi still remained awake in mid-air, and as soon as his body landed, it was a tumbling, moving four or five meters away to his side and back.
Fortunately, it was Fang Yi who reacted, and as soon as his body moved away, Kui Niu's huge body fell from the sky and smashed heavily on the place where Fang Yi had just landed, and the hard ground even cracked a few lines, and Fang Yi, who had not yet stood firm, was shaken by the shock.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, how can this thing fight him?"
A trace of blood appeared on the corner of Fang Yi's mouth, this Kui Niu monster was too powerful, just by opening his mouth and roaring, Fang Yi was not lightly injured, and its body was much larger than the Akajiri Horse Monkey, Fang Yi didn't know if the broken blade attack in his hand would still work?
"Weakness, where is Kui Niu's weakness?"
Fang Yi threw a heart-clearing pill into his mouth, allowing his brain to return to clarity, Kui Niu's sonic attack just now not only injured Fang Yi's body, but even his divine consciousness was also slightly damaged, compared to the previous Akajiri Horse Monkey, Kui Niu was undoubtedly much more powerful.
"Kui Niu's movements are much slower than those of the Akajiri horse monkey. ”
Looking at Kui Niu who was standing not far away and staggering, Fang Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, sure enough, it was the same as in the record, when Kui Niu acted alone, his movements were very slow, and when he was far away, Kui Niu could jump, but now he was only four or five meters away from Fang Yi, and it was not so convenient for Kui Niu to move.
"Roar!"
Looking at Fang Yi in front of him, Kui Niu roared again, but this time Fang Yi was prepared, his figure flashed quickly, let go of the sound wave that made the air vibrate, and came to Kui Niu's side, and the broken blade in his hand flashed a knife, slashing towards Kui Niu's neck.
At this time, Fang Yi could not care about any rating, as long as he could kill Kui Niu at this time, Fang Yi was willing to use any means, otherwise it would be his corpse lying on the ground, before life and death, Fang Yi only thought about how to kill the monster in front of him.
Although Kui Niu's body was clumsy, but the reaction was very fast, when the knife was about to reach the head, Kui Niu suddenly lowered his head and met his own single horn with the knife, Fang Yi only felt a shock in his hand, a strong force came, with this force, Fang Yi's body quickly retreated.
"Grandma's, is this a spirit or a real cow?"
Fang Yi looked at Kui Niu's head, but found that the single horn had not been damaged in the slightest after being slashed by the knife, since he had obtained this indestructible broken blade, it was the first time that Fang Yi had found something that it kept chopping.
"Isn't the spirit all imaginary, and how can it resist the sword?"
Although Fang Yi's heart was full of doubts, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and when he saw that Kui Niu was roaring again, Fang Yi hurriedly let go of Kui Niu's front, went around behind it, and slashed down with another knife.
This time Fang Yi cut the one-legged of Kui Niu, in Fang Yi's mind, as long as he broke his foot, no matter how powerful this Kui Niu was, he couldn't help himself, but what Fang Yi didn't expect was that when the knife touched Kui Niu's one-legged, his hand felt like it was cut on leather, no matter how he urged his true qi, he couldn't cut into it.
"Not good!"
When Fang Yi was exerting his strength, there was a sudden warning sign in his heart, and he hurriedly withdrew his knife and retreated, just at the moment when Fang Yi retreated, Kui Niu's single horn grazed Fang Yi's chest, and the single horn was like a sharp blade, cutting the clothes on Fang Yi's chest together, and a long blood mark appeared on his chest.
"Reacting so quickly, is this still a dead thing?"
After the body exploded and retreated more than ten meters, Fang Yi looked down at his chest with a wry smile, since he came down the mountain, he had also encountered several dangers, and he had been involved in the dark river by the giant snake, but there had never been a hand-to-hand fight like this one was so dangerous, Fang Yi felt that as long as he took a full step, he was afraid that he would be disemboweled.
Looking at the Kui Niu with a fierce light in his eyes, Fang Yi really didn't know if it was the spirit that this secret realm spirit said, even the Akajiri horse monkey just now didn't have its quick reaction, and what gave Fang Yi the most headache was that the skin on this big guy's body was extremely thick, and he couldn't even break it with a knife.
Now the biggest hole card in Fang Yi's hand is undoubtedly this broken blade, the broken blade can't break Kui Niu's body, Fang Yi doesn't have to think about it with his bare hands, it's better to wash it and obediently let Kui Niu eat it.
"No, the head should be its weakness. ”
Although he was thinking, Fang Yi's body didn't dare to stay in place, he kept a distance of seven or eight meters from Kui Niu in a circle, and when Fang Yi saw Kui Niu's constantly twisting head, a bright light suddenly flashed in his heart.
Fang Yi had attacked Kui Niu's head before, but was blocked by the single horn, and when Fang Yi attacked Kui Niu's one-legged, it didn't even dodge, and directly resisted the knife, which showed that Kui Niu was afraid that his head would be hurt, or that his head could not resist the attack of the knife.
"It's good to have weaknesses, I'm afraid you don't have weaknesses. ”
Thinking of this, Fang Yi's figure suddenly sped up a few points, and he kept circling around Kui Niu, and at first he could see Fang Yi's figure clearly, but when he used the technique of shrinking the ground into inches, he could only see that there was a rotating phantom around Kui Niu's body.
Kui Niu's attack means are really not much, one-legged has to stand to maintain the balance of his body, and then he can only attack Fang Yi with a sonic roar and a one-horn, but Fang Yi's speed is too fast, Kui Niu can't face Fang Yi head-on at all, and several roars are in vain.
In the process of spinning, Fang Yi also tried to attack Kui Niu's head several times, but Kui Niu's sense of the sword and mangqi machine was very sensitive, and several attacks were blocked by him with a single horn, and even once he almost hit Fang Yi with a single horn, which scared Fang Yi out of a cold sweat.
"You can't get up close to it!"
Fang Yi found that he absolutely couldn't get close to Kui Niu, because in addition to the weakness of his head, this Kui Niu's whole body was like an iron wall, as long as he was hit by it, even if he was already an innate cultivator, I am afraid that he could only end up with a broken tendon.
Unable to get close, and the knife could not touch the vital parts of Kui Niu, Fang Yi was helpless for a while, looking at Kui Niu's neck, which was a bit like a snake's neck, Fang Yi couldn't wait to cut off its dragon-like head.
"It would be nice if this broken blade could attack out of its body. A thought suddenly flashed through Fang Yi's mind, but he vetoed it again, because the Broken Blade would only show an indestructible sword when it was infused with True Qi.
If there is no blessing of true qi, this broken blade can only be regarded as relatively sharp at best, if it is used to cut some mortal things, there should be no problem, but if you want to cut off Kui Niu's neck, you are afraid that you will not be able to do it.
"What if you use your sense?"
Like his own body, Fang Yi's mind was also spinning rapidly, he suddenly thought that the strength of his divine consciousness was already able to barely urge the human body, this broken blade was as thin as a cicada's wings and as light as nothing, he should be able to use his divine sense to manipulate it simply.
"The ancient sword immortal said that taking people's heads thousands of miles away is probably to instill the divine consciousness on the sword, right?" Fang Yi's thoughts diverged, and he thought of Long Wanda's natal Gu again, allowing the divine sense to enter the natal Gu to control it, and controlling the flying sword was actually similar.
"Grandma's, Dao Ye, I'm fighting with you!" Fang Yi shouted out the title he hadn't used for a long time, suddenly stopped his figure, and threw the broken sword in his hand high.
The Kui Niu in front of Fang Yi actually only had the instinct to fight, and this instinct told it that the most dangerous thing on Fang Yi's body was the broken sword that could emit swords, so seeing the broken sword flying into the air, this Kui Niu actually raised his head to look at the broken sword in the air.
"Slash me!"
Fang Yi let out a low roar in his throat, instilling all his divine consciousness into the broken sword, and at the same time urging the broken sword to fly downward, at this time, Fang Yi had already lost control of his body, and that Kui Niu could press Fang Yi into a meatloaf with just one jump.
However, Kui Niu, who was attracted by the broken sword, didn't realize Fang Yi's weakness at this moment, it just twisted its head and aimed its horn at the broken sword to meet it, but what Kui Niu didn't expect was that the broken sword, which had always been straight, actually made a turn in the air and circled its neck.
Using his divine sense to urge the animal body, for Fang Yi at this time, it was already beyond his ability, and after barely urging the broken sword to carry out this attack, Fang Yi's divine sense was also exhausted, and the whole person became extremely weak.
"It's finished?"
Fang Yi, who stood in place in a daze, found that Kui Niu's body also seemed to be frozen, and after a few seconds, Kui Niu's head, which was slightly smaller than the grinding plate, fell from the neck with a bang, just like killing the Akajiri horse monkey, and there was no trace of blood on the wound.
"The broken sword urged by the divine consciousness is actually sharper than the true qi instilled in it?"
Looking at the head of Kui Niu and the broken sword that fell to the ground, Fang Yi's brain regained his senses after a short blank, and he quickly took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket and poured all the three Qingxin pills inside into his mouth.
However, the Qingxin Pill that Fang Yi took was not at all comparable to the phantom that came out of the virtual Kui Niu's body and integrated into Fang Yi's body, as soon as the phantom came into contact with Fang Yi's body, Fang Yi, who was originally mentally weak, suddenly had a feeling of fullness in his mind.
The phantom of the spiritual power that Kui Niu had turned into when he died was far stronger than the previous Akajiri horse monkey, and almost in an instant, Fang Yi felt that his lost spiritual power had been completely replenished.
Moreover, after replenishing the loss, Fang Yi's spiritual power was still growing, and at the same time, Fang Yi found that in his sea of consciousness, there seemed to be a shackle that had become loosened, and the spiritual power fused in by the phantom was constantly impacting that shackle.
"Are you going to break through?"
Fang Yi didn't expect that the spiritual power of this phantom transformation was so powerful, and he actually allowed himself to forcibly impact the shackles of advancing to the Qi Refining Period, and before he could think about it, Fang Yi also mobilized all his spiritual power and slammed into that place in the sea of knowledge.
With the experience of killing the Akajiri horse monkey last time, Fang Yi knew that the machine spirit in this secret realm should come out, instead of going on to the next trial, and in the absence of danger, Fang Yi was also relieved to break through with all his strength.
"It's still a little bit off. ”
After a few minutes, Fang Yi opened his eyes with some disappointment, because at this moment, the surging spiritual power in his mind after absorbing the phantom had gradually begun to fade, some of which merged with his own divine sense, while the other part overflowed into the sea of consciousness.
Fang Yi knew that his breakthrough was a failure, but the shackles had already loosened a lot, Fang Yi believed that if he could fuse the spiritual power of the phantom again, then he would have at least eighty percent certainty of breaking through the existing shackles in one fell swoop and advancing to the next realm.
Thinking of this, Fang Yi's eyes became hot, the old saying that wealth and wealth are in danger is indeed true, although he is still alive and dangerous, but the benefits that Fang Yi has obtained are also huge, if he cultivates step by step, Fang Yi doesn't know when he will be able to truly become a qi refiner.
"Are you still there, come out!" Fang Yi raised his head and shouted into the air, he knew that the guy who was suspected of being a machine spirit must be paying attention to himself, otherwise when he broke through just now, there would be other trial monsters.
"Congratulations, the results of this trial are good!" Sure enough, just as Fang Yi's shout fell, that voice appeared again.
"I also used a weapon this time, why is it good instead of passing?" Fang Yi had some kind of guess in his heart, but he still needed that voice to confirm it.
"You've mastered the method of using weapons, so it's good!" The words that voice said were exactly the same as Fang Yi's guess, this broken sword really needed to be activated with divine sense, so that it could be worthy of the name of the flying sword.
"In the future, you must refine a flying sword of your own. ”
Thinking of the power of the divine consciousness urging the broken sword just now, Fang Yi couldn't help but think of the refining fragment in his hand, which contained the method of refining the flying sword, and introduced in the refining fragment that the flying sword that really belonged to him contained a trace of the master's divine sense, so that he could be completely controlled by himself.
"Is there a reward for being good?"
Fang Yi calmed down for a moment and pulled his thoughts back, refining the flying sword is a matter of the future, but now there is still a crisis of trials, no one knows if the next monster that appears, will he be able to deal with it?
"You've got the reward. ”
The voice said in a lofty voice: "You are really weak, even if this Kui Niu only has the essence left, it is enough for the Qi Refiner in the Qi Refining Period to break through a small realm, and you have not even broken through in the Qi Refining Period, it is really too weak." ”
"Since you know I'm weak, give me more rewards. ”
Fang Yi ignored the disdain revealed in his voice, the heaven and earth had changed greatly, the aura had disappeared, the current world was no longer the world of the ancients, Fang Yi was very lucky to be able to embark on the path of cultivation, he had never expected to ascend to the sky in one step and reach the realm of the ancient powers.
"If you want a reward, just keep trying. ”
That voice also didn't care about Fang Yi, it could give Fang Yi some convenience within its own authority, but it couldn't go out of line, if you wanted to get benefits in this trial secret realm, you had to pass its test.
