Chapter 215: Mental Power Trial
At night, Lin Qi and Chenxi had already entered the Medicine King Monument.
"Yao Zhenren, is the Ascending Stone the Northern Xuanhao Sutra?"
Lin Qi asked. At this moment, Chenxi and Jia Lan also looked at Yao Zhenren, wanting to know the answer from his mouth.
"According to your previous description, it is very likely that the Ascending Stone is the Northern Xuanhao Sutra. However, I really haven't sensed the breath of the Northern Xuanhao Sutra during these days in the academy, so I don't know where the Heavenly Ascending Stone is hidden by them?"
Yao Zhenren said in a flat tone.
After hearing Yao Zhenren's words, Lin Qi and the three of them couldn't help but groan.
"If this is really possible, then I will have to participate in the selection of the Xiuwen Pagoda tomorrow..."
Lin Qi said softly.
"But if that's the case, your identity will inevitably be revealed..."
Chenxi said with a worried look on her face.
"Hmm... It would be easy if the Ascending Stone was the Northern Xuanhao Sutra, but if it wasn't, when the Xiuwen Pagoda trial opened, Master Lin would inevitably be recognized. I'm afraid that all the work I have done will be wasted then......"
Yao Zhenren's face was also uncertain, and he muttered in his mouth.
"You have to see the Ascending Stone to be sure..."
Yao Zhenren continued.
After Lin Qi heard Yao Zhenren's words, a trace of helplessness also appeared in his heart. If you can see the Ascending Stone in advance, you don't need to discuss it here, but now it's difficult not to see it.
"I'll definitely pass tomorrow's selection, and I'll know then. If it weren't for the Northern Xuanhao Sutra, we would have found another way to push off the trip to the Xiuwen Pagoda. ”
After contemplating for a while, Lin Qi showed a hint of firmness in his eyes, and said in a very relaxed tone.
After Lin Qi's words fell, Yao Zhenren was silent for a moment, and finally said helplessly: "It can only be like this." ”
......
After one night, Lin Qi practiced in the Snake Transformation Ding for two more days, and the Dragon Snake Heavenly Thunderbolt Fist became more and more sophisticated, and the power became more domineering and fierce.
At this time, there was still some time before the start of the selection meeting, and Lin Qi came to the venue from the cave house early. He wasn't the first person to arrive here, and there were already a lot of people in the square talking in groups of threes and twos.
Lin Qi casually found a vacant space, then sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and recuperated, the fatigue in his body had not fully recovered from his hard cultivation last night. Lin Qi took advantage of the gap before the conference began, and prepared to recover more spirits.
At this moment, a fragrant breath wafted from not far away, and Lin Qi had already felt that a woman was walking towards him, but he didn't make any movement, and his eyes were closed.
Shen Siying came to Lin Qi's side, and when she saw that he was sitting cross-legged pranayama, she didn't mean to disturb, she sat down directly beside Lin Qi, and also closed her eyes and recuperated.
After about two quarters of an hour, it was finally time for the selection meeting to begin.
At this time, Lin Qi also opened his eyes, and the first thing that caught his eye was Shen Siying's delicate and beautiful face with a bright smile.
"Hehe, didn't you say that you want to give up on your own initiative? Why do you still close your eyes and recuperate?"
Shen Siying looked at Lin Qi and smiled.
"Senior Sister Shen, I have inquired yesterday, and I can't give up this selection, otherwise I won't come. ”
Lin Qi also showed a smile, and the two of them had already stood up from the ground as they spoke.
At this moment, the square was already full of people. All the people from the D-level academy, including some of the old students of the C-level academy, all came here to watch, and they also wanted to see what powerful people were among the new students of the Jindan Realm this time.
On the high platform of the square, Du Ruoshu and the three immortal masters in the D-level academy were ready, and everyone's eyes were also fixed on the high platform.
Knock knock knock......
The sound of bells rang out from inside the academy at this moment.
"It's on, it's on. ”
"I'm sure I'll be chosen this time!"
......
After hearing the sound of the bell, the disciples in the square began to talk, and the sound was very noisy.
After the bell rang, Du Ruoshu cleared his throat, and the aura on his body suddenly changed greatly, and the cultivation of the Dao period was unobstructed. In an instant, the area around the square fell silent.
"Next, I announce that this Xiuwen Pagoda Trial Selection Conference has officially begun! All the disciples above the Jugang Realm have retreated to the sidelines!"
Du Ruoshu's voice was generous and powerful, and it reached everyone's ears. There was no need for him to remind him, at this time, only the disciples of the Jindan Realm were left in the square, Lin Qi stood in place and swept it at a glance, and he already knew in his heart that there were a total of forty-one people who participated in the selection this time, including himself, and they were all freshmen of this year.
At this time, all the forty-one disciples stood in the square. Du Ruoshu looked at Lin Qi's new students, his face showed a look of satisfaction, and he nodded lightly.
"In this selection, the test is not only force, but also Confucianism and Taoism. Let's move on to the first item, mental power assessment!"
As Du Ruoshu spoke, a cylinder appeared out of thin air in his hand, and after this thick column appeared, he heard a sudden sound in the middle of the square, and the next moment a circular groove appeared in everyone's eyes.
Du Ruoshu was holding the cylinder in his hand at this time, without a little struggle. With a flick of his wrist, the thick cylinder in his hand flew out and plunged into the groove impartially.
As the column stood in the middle of the field, suddenly the whole square shone with a dazzling light. In an instant, a layer of light appeared, enveloping all the forty-one disciples, including Lin Qi.
Rumble......
With the appearance of this layer of light mask, the ground suddenly bulged under the feet of everyone in the square, turning into a circular low platform, like a futon.
After Lin Qi and the others saw this low platform appear, they sat down at the same time.
"Those who insist on three incense sticks will enter the next assessment, and they will not be eliminated directly. Those who insist on the five incense sticks will directly obtain the qualification for the trial of the Xiuwen Pagoda!"
Du Ruoshu's voice sounded again, and when Lin Qi and the other forty-one disciples heard this, they were all shocked. Many people were full of confidence and closed their eyes at the same time.
When Lin Qi had just closed his eyes, he suddenly felt a very heavy pressure, which made him a little unable to move. At this moment, a thick incense has been inserted in the furnace on the high platform, and it takes half an hour for this incense to be burned, three incense sticks are one and a half hours, and five incense sticks are two and a half hours.
Many disciples' hearts sank when they felt this pressure. What they thought was easy is not so easy to do.
At the beginning, Lin Qi didn't feel so uncomfortable, at least he didn't feel breathless, but after burning a stick of incense, Lin Qi felt that he was already a little difficult to breathe. The heavy force on his body actually began to become stronger, and it was more than a star and a half strong.
Everyone felt the same, and at this time, many people began to break out in cold sweat on their foreheads, and it seemed that they were about to lose their support.
Compared with the inside of the field, the spectators outside the field looked at the people in the light mask, and the mood was also nervous, and everyone didn't know who would be the first to be eliminated.
"Whew... Whew......"
Lin Qi's breathing had also become rapid at this time, and it was no longer as uniform as before. But his body was still upright, and he hadn't been bent like the rest of the room.
Now that the second pillar of incense had been burned halfway, at this moment, a male disciple of the third order of Jindan finally took the lead and couldn't hold on. At this time, his head was almost on the ground, and he quickly opened his eyes, and the pressure on his body disappeared instantly, and then he quickly straightened up. With a hint of bitterness on his face, and after shaking his head helplessly, the man consciously stood up and walked out of the light mask.
The first person started, and soon after, a second person failed and left the plaza as well.
Lin Qi closed his eyes tightly at this time, although the expression on his face was calm, it was not relaxed, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead at this time. He only felt that time had passed very long, as if it had passed like a year. In my heart, like everyone else, I hope that time will pass sooner and finish burning three incense sticks quickly.
Finally, under the expectation of the assessees, the second pillar of incense was also burned. When the third pillar of incense is inserted.
Brush!
Lin Qi suddenly felt that the pressure on his body had doubled, and this time the pressure was actually twice as high as when he was in the second pillar of incense. This made Lin Qi's complexion change dramatically in an instant, and a difficult expression appeared on his face, no longer so calm. The breathing changed from the original shortness to breathlessness all of a sudden.
"Damn, how did this grow so much. It's heavy!"
Lin Qi muttered in his heart. He clenched his teeth at the moment, trying his best to support his body, and his originally straight waist finally tilted at this time.
"Ahh
......
At this moment, screams suddenly rang out from several places in the field at the same time. I saw that many disciples couldn't bear the sudden increase in pressure, and directly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and their eyes were already open, which meant that these people had all failed.
At this moment, there were still thirty people left in the field. These people all gritted their teeth and persisted like Lin Qi. I have to say that the people who can persist until this time are all very good in talent and qualifications, and they are not mediocre people. Then, no one screamed.
After a long half hour, thirty people finally passed the test at the same time. The fourth pillar of incense ** is on.
At this moment, the pressure increased again, and after the fourth incense stick was inserted, more than a dozen people vomited blood and opened their eyes. These people originally wanted to insist, but they could only shake their heads helplessly. They didn't leave, but sat still, waiting for the others to finish the test.
At this time, there were only sixteen people left in the field who were still holding on, and after Lin Qi heard the movement around him, he also opened his eyes, he was the only one among these people who withdrew from the trial on his own without vomiting blood.
On the high platform, Du Ruoshu and the three immortal masters saw that after Lin Qi reached the standard, they quit on their own and did not continue, they were very puzzled in their hearts, normal people want to challenge their limits, so many people are obviously unable to hold on but are still persevering. Only Lin Qi did the opposite.
"This son knows how to advance and retreat, well... Not bad. ”
At this time, an immortal master behind Du Ruoshu took the lead in speaking. Hearing this immortal master's explanation, Du Ruoshu and the other two immortal masters also agreed with this statement. thinks that Lin Qi should be a person who is more aware of current affairs. However, they didn't know that Lin Qi also wanted to continue, to see where his limit was, not to mention the fifth pillar of incense, Lin Qi estimated in his heart that he would definitely be able to hold on to the fourth pillar of incense, but he was afraid that others would not be able to hold on, but in order not to attract the attention of others, he had to follow the flow and stop.
