Chapter 824: The Five Decays of Heaven and Man, Unsolvable Questions!
The first round passed, and there was a break of about two hours, and in the afternoon, the second round began.
"The top 200 finishers in the first round will be shortlisted for the second round, and from the second round onwards, the points system will be used, and the final points will determine the ranking. Now, the finalists are invited to enter!"
With the voice coming from the Little Dan Tower, the two hundred people who were shortlisted had already adjusted their state and flew to the Little Dan Tower one after another.
Xiao Chen is naturally no exception.
"Yaoyao, do you think Mr. Xiao can still win the first place this time?" Yin Chong asked Shen Danyao.
Shen Danyao was eliminated in the first round, and now she can only stay outside.
"I don't know, but there is no doubt that the second round will be much more difficult than the first round!" Shen Danyao said seriously, "There will be points from the second round, and everyone will go all out!"
"Well, if you can keep the top ten, it will be enough to be famous all over the world!" Yin Chong nodded.
......
Re-entering the Little Danta, it was still the same as last time, an independent space, and he was the only one.
"Wouldn't this be too lonely?" Xiao Chen knew that Xiao Danta had his own will, so he suggested, "It's better to have a lively Dandao Conference, at least allocate five to ten people in an examination room!"
"Don't worry, the second round is just the beginning, and the third and fourth rounds will fulfill your wishes!" replied the indifferent will.
"Is there already a design?" Xiao Chen touched his nose and smiled, "Count me busy, what is the second round of questions?"
"This round is the Dan Dao knowledge assessment!"
"Assessment?"
"Not bad!" said the will, "Ten questions, involving all aspects of Dan Dao knowledge, you must answer them within the allotted time. 10 points for each correct answer, zero points for abstention, and 10 points for incorrect answers!"
"What if you only get the part right?" Xiao Chen asked.
Many questions do not have a single answer, such as multiple choice, there will be many answers, and there will be a situation where only the correct part is answered.
"Then it depends on the situation, a score of 0 to 10 is possible!" replied the will.
"Okay, I know!" Xiao Chen said lightly, "You can start!"
When the will is heard, it doesn't talk nonsense, and it goes straight to the point.
"Question 1, herbs!"
"There is a kind of fairy grass, growing in the cool and humid but the area with sufficient fairy spirit, twenty years of seedling stage, forty years of growth period, reaching the maturity period of a hundred years after the secondary growth will occur, the second growth can be used for medicine, with extremely high medicinal value, what is the name of this fairy grass?
When Xiao Chen heard this, he replied without thinking: "This immortal grass has six leaves, which are purple heart-shaped, so it is named 'Six-Leaf Purple Heart Grass', which is the main medicine for refining the Nine Rank Immortal Pill Purple Kui Pill!"
"Answer correctly, 10 points!"
"Question 2, Skills!"
"If during alchemy, you find that the pill is very scattered and cannot be condensed into a pill type, what is the reason for it, and how should it be solved?"
When Xiao Chen heard this, he opened his mouth and replied: "There are two reasons why it cannot become a pill, one is that the coagulation is not enough, and the medicinal materials cannot be gathered together harmoniously, and trace minerals need to be added to form them. The second is that the medicine is too strong, which causes the pill to crack, and it needs to be controlled to adjust the heat!"
After a pause, Xiao Chen added, "The above two problems can be solved by casting a pill trick!"
"Perfect answer, 10 points!" said the will approvingly, "I really didn't read it wrong in the last round, you cast the Dan Technique, otherwise you would definitely not be able to refine a four-grade elixir in more than ten seconds!"
"Dan Jue may be a rare thing for ordinary people, but Danta has been inherited for hundreds of thousands of years and has countless treasures, so there is no need to make such a fuss!" Xiao Chen said lightly, "Let's come up with the next question!"
"Question 3, discernment!"
......
In another space of the Little Dan Tower, Yang Ning, the young master of the Tiandan Pavilion, was also nervously answering questions.
The second round was much more difficult than the first.
The 10 questions are obviously carefully prepared, multi-directional and misleading, and the slightest mistake may result in a deduction of points.
Even Yang Ning, who has always been conceited, was careless in Jingzhou in the fourth question, made an error, and only answered half of it correctly and scored five points.
Fortunately, he began to be more serious in the next few questions, thinking carefully about each question before answering, and finally there were no more mistakes.
In the blink of an eye, he had come to the tenth question.
"There is also the last question, although there was a slight accident in the fourth question, and there was a loss of 5 points, but as long as the tenth question is answered correctly, the total score is 95 points, which is not bad!"
Thinking of this, Yang Ning surged with confidence again and waited for the tenth question.
"Yang Ning, do you know what will happen if a quasi-Immortal Emperor wants to forcibly break through the Immortal Emperor realm and ultimately fails?"
When Yang Ning heard this, he blurted out: "If you want to break through the Immortal Emperor, you must pass through the Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulation." If the tribulation fails, not only will the foundation be destroyed, but it will also end up with serious sequelae. Spiritual failure, clothing and surface failure, wisdom failure, comprehension failure, and Fahua failure are called the 'five decays of heaven and man'!"
"Well, that's right!"
"Ah, is this the tenth question?" Yang Ning was stunned.
He thought that the topic would become more and more difficult, but it turned out that this tenth question was too child's play, and it was completely a matter of common sense.
Although he is far from reaching the realm of the Immortal Emperor, has he never eaten pork and never seen a pig run?
"Of course not!" the will denied, "Question 10, how to use Dan Dao knowledge to cure the five decays of heaven and man!"
"Cure the five decays of heaven and man?" Yang Ning heard this, his eyes widened, "Senior, are you joking, there is no solution to the five decays of heaven and man!"
The reason why the Immortal Emperor is unattainable, and if he does not enter the Immortal Emperor, he will eventually become an ant is because it is too difficult to reach the realm of the Immortal Emperor, and the price he needs to pay is too great.
Once the breakthrough through the Immortal Emperor fails, the Five Decays of Heaven and Man will become a terrible nightmare.
Because the five decays of heaven and man cannot be cured, a quasi-immortal emperor has the disease of the five decays of heaven and man, and will slowly degenerate.
Repair for degradation!
Degraded appearance!
Intellectual degeneration!
Shou Yuan degenerates!
Eventually, he died of old age like an old man in his twilight.
If an immortal cultivator dies directly, he will be gone, and there will be no pain.
But the kind of suffering that degenerates step by step like this is indescribable.
From ancient times to the present, countless ancestors have been trying how to crack the five decays of heaven and man.
However, there is no solution!
There is no way to heal the five decays of heaven and man!
"Don't question the question itself, you just need to give your answer!" said indifferently, "If you don't know the answer, you can abstain!"
"Abstaining......?" Yang Ning hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, my answer is that there is no solution to this question!"
"Clever!" said the will, "there is no solution, but it is also an answer." But as I said earlier, this question is an open question, and there is more than one answer, so if you answer half of it correctly, you will be given five points!"
When Yang Ning heard this, he said happily: "Thank you senior!"
If abstained, the question will be a score of zero.
But he firmly believed that the question was unsolvable, equivalent to an answer, and got five points.
He also understands that the contestants are not expected to be able to answer this question, and in the end, no one will be able to get a perfect score.
There is no perfect score, implying that the Dan Road is endless, and everyone is just chasing full marks and chasing perfection on the road, which can be described as profound and thought-provoking.
