Volume 2: Yin City Chapter 18: Ten Layers of Heaven
With the end of this assessment, only Shen Qianqiu passed the assessment, the star layer lord looked at Shen Qianqiu in front of him, with a complicated look in his eyes, the three assessments double full scores plus immortal-level talents are already the upper limit of the Yin City battle assessment, but the star layer lord doesn't know how Shen Qianqiu got two full scores, because there is no battle link this time, resulting in no understanding of Shen Qianqiu at all.
After thinking for a moment and making a decision, the star layer master pointed to a door on the left side of the star layer and said, "Shen Qianqiu, do you know what this door is for?"
Shen Qianqiu followed the fingers of the star layer lord and saw a stone door, the entire door was carved with stars, at a glance, it was like being in the night, his eyes were full of shining starlight, Shen Qianqiu's left eye flashed with golden light, and then he came back to his senses, and then he reacted, in just a few seconds, he was actually controlled mentally?
The Star Layer Lord looked at the little golden light in Shen Qianqiu's left eye, and asked, "Your left eye is the ability to awaken?"
Shen Qianqiu retracted his gaze: "I woke up when the sword servant was baptized, but I haven't figured out what the function is yet" Shen Qianqiu touched his left eye, thinking that when he was controlled just now, it seemed that his left eye let himself out of control, it seems that this eye is really mysterious.
The star layer lord walked towards the stone gate carved with stars, this door is the star gate carved by the tower lord himself, the stars on the door, ordinary people will look at it as if they are facing the tower lord to use the sword to move the stars, but I didn't expect Shen Qianqiu to rely on the ability of the sword to regain consciousness in such a short time.
Walking to the star gate, the star layer lord pressed a button next to it, the star gate slowly opened, revealing the stone staircase, and the star layer lord beckoned to Shen Qianqiu, signaling Shen Qianqiu to go over.
When Shen Qianqiu walked to the main door of the star layer, he looked at the stairs at the stone entrance, showing a puzzled expression, not knowing what the star layer lord meant, and then the star layer lord spoke: " Shen Qianqiu, your situation is too special, although you are a double perfect score, but if you are not an immortal-level talent, at least in the star layer, you will not be able to pass the assessment, Ling Baizhi and Wei Luyao, I believe you also know that the sword talent is the best in the entire Yin City, not to mention these two special cases, as long as the person who uses the weapon, there will be more or less a trace of the temperament of the weapon itself, the lightness of the sword, the domineering of the knife, and the heaviness of the axe, but you do not feel a trace of weapon-related temperament in you. ”
Shen Qianqiu thought for a moment and understood what the Star Layer Lord meant, because Shen Qianqiu's moves, even if the sword is replaced with other weapons, it can be used, the existing broken wither, unfinished spring buds and blooms are all like this, it is not based on the sword, the sword move constituted, just like the strength assessment actually does not use the sword move at all, but the space passes, and the second assessment has the help of the space rhythm, and the weapon used is almost the same.
The Star Layer Lord continued: "The stone staircase in this Star Gate is the road to the tenth floor of the sky, and all those who have passed the assessment must enter from here, you come in with me. ”
Shen Qianqiu followed behind the Star Layer Lord and walked into the Star Gate, and as the Star Gate closed behind him, a little bit of starlight gradually appeared in the originally dark interior, illuminating the stairs.
The stairs are descending in a spiral, and the star layer lord takes Shen Qianqiu to gradually walk down, although there is a starlight paving the way, but the vision is still not too far away, the star layer lord said, "There are ten floors in the Tower of Babel, each floor has a test, you can only enter the next layer after passing, and after passing the ten floors, you can participate in the baptism of the swordsman in the Inheritance Hall, otherwise you will not be able to enter the Inheritance Hall even if you are a person at the sword soul level, depending on the assessment results, some geniuses can start from the second floor, the third floor or even the fourth floor." ”
Saying this, the Star Layer Lord stood and looked at Shen Qianqiu with both eyes: "And you, you need to start from the first layer," the Star Layer Lord finished speaking, looking at Shen Qianqiu's expression, there was no change, and he looked at Shen Qianqiu a little higher in his heart, "Looking at the assessment alone, you are perfect, but I can't be sure of your true strength now, and starting from the first layer is also a great benefit to you." ”
After saying this, the star layer lord turned his head and continued to walk down, Shen Qianqiu followed behind the star layer lord without saying a word, Shen Qianqiu was very puzzled, what is the weapon temperament, looking at the star layer lord in front of him, he hesitated, and still asked, "Star layer master, what is this weapon temperament, I don't have a weapon temperament, will it have any effect?"
Hearing Shen Qianqiu ask, the Star Layer Lord didn't answer immediately, he thought about it first, and then replied, "There is no fixed explanation for this, what you may master with a sword is lightness, sharpness, and even your own emotions, such as pride and unyielding, these will be reflected in the moves when using weapons, and this weapon temperament is the basis for entering the sword level." ”
After saying this, the Star Layer Lord sighed and continued, "Shen Qianqiu, looking at the distribution of soul light points in your body today, I know that you can simply use soul power, but you must know that no matter how talented you are, you must first enter the Sword Soul Rank before you can advance to the Sword Soul Level, which means that although you have immortal-level talent, but you don't have a weapon temperament, you can't even reach the Sword Soul level, let alone the Immortal level." ”
At this time, Shen Qianqiu knew the seriousness of the problem, if he couldn't advance, he would be limited by his strength, and his spatial control ability would also stagnate, after listening to the explanation of the Star Layer Lord, Shen Qianqiu understood what the so-called weapon temperament was, but how to have it was really difficult for Shen Qianqiu.
The two of them were silent for a while, until they walked to a door, and the star layer lord said, "Enter the door, it is the first floor of the Tower of Babel, with your strength, if you forcibly break through with lethality, I believe you can break through to the fifth layer in one day, but I suggest you don't do this, the foundation is very important, you have obtained a strong strength that does not meet the level, causing you to ignore some very basic things, I hope I can see you who have become a swordsman in the exploration team in three months." ”
Shen Qianqiu smiled at the Star Layer Lord, "Don't worry, how can I miss this kind of big event, Star Layer Lord, goodbye in the Inheritance Hall"
After speaking, Shen Qianqiu pushed open the door and walked into it, when Shen Qianqiu stepped inside, the space inside was very large, more than twice as large as the star layer, it seemed that this ten floors of Tongtian were either underground or had a special spatial structure.
The structure here is very simple, you can see a huge panel with all kinds of information on it when you enter the door, and under the panel, there is only one door, which seems to be the first layer of the test.
Shen Qianqiu first took a look at the information on the panel, this panel only shows the information of people on the first to fifth floors, one of which has the least number of people on the fifth floor, there are only six people on the fifth floor, Wei Luyao is among them, and the first layer is a lonely Shen Qianqiu hanging on the panel, at the same time, the people of other layers have noticed that there is suddenly an extra person on the first floor, Wei Luyao naturally saw it, although he didn't understand why Shen Qianqiu would start from the first floor, but he thought that he should be able to catch up with himself soon, and the sharp knife qi involuntarily came out of his body。
Ling Baizhi looked at Wei Luyao's reaction, and also looked at the new name, the person who can make Wei Luyao pay so much attention must be a master, but as time went by, Ling Baizhi erased this idea from his mind, a day has passed, and this name is still on the first floor, where is this master genius, I am afraid that it is just a lucky person.
Shen Qianqiu's side, once again was expelled from the assessment door by the puppet, and he was extremely annoyed in his heart, there was only a metal puppet with a knife in the door, and the attack used was also mediocre, but he couldn't break this attack, and then Shen Qianqiu was angry in his heart and wanted to use space power, but this puppet would not be beaten on the spot, but slashed over, and Shen Qianqiu couldn't even compress the space seed.
This time he was expelled again, Shen Qianqiu sat cross-legged on the ground, thinking in his mind, what is the reason, it is an ordinary stabbing and sweeping, why can't he dodge, after Shen Qianqiu entered the Yin City, the only way to fight was the collision with Ning Yu, but that time it also relied on the ability of the breath of life, so it was not a matter of victory or defeat.
Shen Qianqiu realized that he was not a genius at all, he just had a space talent, and he couldn't apply it to actual combat, although he didn't admit it at first, but Shen Qianqiu still knew in his heart that when he entered the first floor, he didn't look down on the bottom layer at all, and felt that he would reach the second floor in a few minutes, the fact is that the metal puppet that he had never looked down on had already trapped Shen Qianqiu here.
Shen Qianqiu's whole person leaned back, changed from sitting cross-legged to lying flat, closed his eyes, removed the impassable impetuousness in his heart, threw away the arrogance when he learned that he was an immortal-level talent, calmed the inner world, and then began to think carefully, the movement of the metal puppet in his memory and the action of the knife kept circulating in his mind.
Another day has passed, the name Shen Qianqiu is still on the first floor, and all the people are no longer paying attention to the newcomers on this floor, when Wei Luyao came out of the assessment room on the fifth floor, he already had confidence in his heart, and it should be within ten days to break through the fifth layer, he looked at Ling Baizhi, and found that Ling Baizhi's gaze also revealed a confident aura, Ling Baizhi naturally also noticed Wei Luyao, between the two, the sword qi and sword qi were vertical and horizontal, and there was another confrontation.
The two people next to him looked at the familiar scene and exchanged in a low voice, "You look at it again, there must be several times a day, why are these two people so incompatible"
"One with a sword, the other with a knife, on par, naturally no one obeys anyone, in my opinion, these two people must have fought outside"
"I think Ling Baizhi should be a little stronger"
"Obviously, Wei Lu Yao is stronger, you look at this sword qi, if you enter the sword level, this sword qi can be used as a weapon"
"Ling Baizhi is not weak, although Ling Li is a little worse, but the sword qi is vertical and horizontal, and it is obviously more imposing than the sword qi."
Obviously two bystanders, but they fought for anger instead, and when they pulled out their weapons and were about to make a move, they saw that Wei Luyao and Ling Baizhi had already dispersed, the two looked at each other, and put the weapons back, with a hint of embarrassment on their faces, "Neither of them has fought each other, what kind of fun are the two of us" "It's just"
This is the door from the fourth floor to the fifth floor, Jiang Wuyi, who was carrying a spear, walked in, and first looked around when he entered the door, and when he saw Ling Baizhi and Wei Luyao, he was overjoyed, it seemed that the gap between himself and these two was not out of reach, and then he also found a place to adjust his state first, ready to try the test of the fifth layer.
Time passed another day, on the third day when Shen Qianqiu entered the first floor, Zhou Shan also successfully came from the fourth layer to the fifth layer, the four geniuses of nearly a hundred years, met on the same floor for the first time, during this period, there were not a few people who advanced the first floor, although there were only two people from the fourth to the fifth floor, but the number of people from the second to the third floor, and the third to the fourth floor was more than ten.
The time came to the fourth day, Wei Lu Yao came out of the door again, and the secret path in his heart was still a little worse, he was tempering, and he would definitely be able to pass the fifth layer tomorrow, and Ling Baizhi, who was really on par with Wei Lu Yao when he was promoted to the sword rank, judged the same thing in his heart.
Everyone seems to have forgotten Shen Qianqiu, who has been lying on the ground for three days, finally moved, his eyes slowly opened, the most eye-catching golden light in the past was replaced by a different kind of sword qi this time, the sword qi in his eyes was like a real system, Shen Qianqiu said to himself: "It turns out that this is also a sword." ”
