Chapter 280: Courage and Fire
From the beginning of the second round of testing to the present, a lot of time has passed, and many things have happened during this period, such as the second layer of step mechanisms that began to make everyone helpless, as well as various layers of mechanisms, all of which have weakened many candidates, but this layer of weakening is not comparable to the seven-layer rakshasas.
Of course, the matter of the seven-layer rakshasa is not known to Xiao Tiaozi, Xiao Luan, and the executioner, but there is one thing that makes them very puzzled, that is, since they arrived on the eighth floor, there have been no other figures behind them, causing them to completely become the tail of the crane in the second round of test crowds.
After the three of them left the seventh floor, with their superior speed, they chased after the large army in front.
"Xiao Tiaozi, don't worry, Brother Wen Xuan, they will be fine, it won't be long before they can catch up here. On the way, Xiao Tiaozi always looked worried, Xiao Luan was a little worried when he saw this, and kept dissuading: "The team in front may be less than a thousand people, plus the eight-layer and nine-layer organs, it can also weaken a lot of people, and when Sister Meng recovers, you also know the strength of the two of them, just this little distance is not a matter of blink of an eye, and they will be able to catch up soon." ”
Hearing Xiao Luan's persuasion, Xiao Tiaozi did not speak, but just smiled far-fetchedly.
According to the strength of this tower, the average is around one finger and eight stars, and if they can reach two finger arrows, they can be regarded as peak powerhouses, from which it can be seen how elite the team of three people is, two two-fingered arrows, and one Xiao Luan who has reached the strength of one finger and nine stars.
It won't take long for this strength to catch up with the previous troops and reach the position on the ninth floor.
After arriving at the ninth floor, the three of them stopped one after another, and there was a huge crowd here, and many people were hindered here.
The ninth-layer mechanism is a monstrous sea of fire, like a demon that can take away life at any time, constantly swinging its orange-red skirt, rocking and blazing, emitting a stinging light, burning everyone's eyes.
"It's such a strong flame, if you break through, I'm afraid it will turn into pieces of ashes before it reaches the other side. ”
"That's right, this flame can't be forced through, there must be some way to get through here. ”
A group of people trapped by the sea of fire kept talking, and they were all very anxious, because many people had already reached the tenth floor, and if they were delayed for a minute, they would have a better chance of being eliminated.
At this time, a well-known and sturdy young man suddenly appeared, his dark and shiny complexion looked very healthy, if Mu Wenxuan was present, he would find that this sturdy man was the man who had relied on his physical body to resist the attack of the second layer of steps a hundred times.
In the same way, this sturdy man, a full nine layers, did not use any skills, and rushed up completely stunned, and there were already all kinds of wounds on his body.
"It's this person again, he won't even break through this sea of fire, right?" Such a person, it is difficult not to be famous, many people around him know this sturdy man, after all, his breakthrough method in the first nine layers is too shocking.
Sure enough, after the sturdy man stood up, he took a deep breath, followed by a burst of applause, and launched his horsepower and rushed into the sea of fire.
Seeing this scene, there were sighs all around, but the sighs didn't last long, and they all stopped abruptly.
Because people found that after the sturdy man rushed into the sea of fire, there was no so-called burn, and the flames around him burned from his body, but did not leave any traces, as if there was an ethereal existence, and it didn't take long for this sturdy man to successfully break through the sea of fire and enter the tenth layer, which was considered a successful popularization.
"Really? Isn't that an exaggeration?"
"It's definitely not true... This sea of fire didn't hurt him? It can't be, right?"
At this time, Xiao Qiaozi suddenly stood up, ready to walk towards the sea of fire, from the breakthrough of the sturdy man just now, let him see a lot of strangeness, after all, no matter how strong the strong man is, he is still the body of the **, although the body of the cultivator is very strong, and it can even reach the point where King Kong is not bad and invulnerable, but if you want to go deep into the sea of fire without leaving a trace, it is simply impossible.
"Xiao Tiaozi, what are you going to do?" Xiao Luan was frightened, and raised his hand to quickly stop Xiao Tiaozi.
Xiao Tiaozi turned around slightly, and then left Xiao Luan with a stable look, which was full of magnetism and couldn't help but be fascinated.
"You won't... Won't you have to break into this sea of fire?"
"Now there is only one way, I must reach the other side as soon as possible, only in this way can I pave the way for my master and mother. Leaving a few words, Xiao Tiaozi turned around directly and looked towards the other side of the sea of fire, where there was not only a stone gate leading to the tenth floor, but also a huge picture hanging on the stone door, on which a series of numbers danced.
Since entering the ninth floor, Xiao Xiaozi has looked at this picture, especially the number on the picture, and he found that every time a person successfully reaches the tenth floor, this number will increase by one, counting the sturdy men who have just broken through, it is already as many as seven hundred and eighty, and it is only a step away from a thousand.
Looking at the flickering numbers on the picture, Xiao Qiaozi suddenly made a bold decision in his heart, and then his face became resolute and resolute, and directly turned into a ray of light, leaping into the monstrous sea of fire.
Just stepped into the sea of fire, which made Xiao Tiaozi stunned, because he found that there was no scorching burning as he imagined, the sting of the flames, even if the flames kept beating on his body, he couldn't feel any heat.
After learning this, Xiao Tiaozi suddenly realized and secretly trembled: "It turns out that this is the case, the mechanism at this level is not this sea of fire, but courage." ”
Walking in the monstrous sea of fire, Xiao Tiaozi did not feel any burning pain, even if he grabbed the fire with his bare hands, it was the same, these flames seemed to be very illusory, like an illusion, and they were completely invisible.
Because of this, Xiao Tiaozi soon arrived on the other side, but he did not enter the tenth floor anxiously, but stood under the gate of the tenth floor, looked up at the picture hanging on the stone door, and silently recited the numbers on the picture in his heart.
Seeing that another person had successfully broken through the sea of fire, everyone began to hesitate, followed by Xiao Luan, the executioner, and a large number of people eager to try, and finally broke through.
Of course, the mechanism of this layer is not as simple as Xiao Xiaozi thought, the mechanism of the ninth layer is indeed related to courage, but it also needs to be free of distractions, for example, just a timid white-faced student, Niu Niu pinched and stepped into the sea of fire, and the moment he just stepped into the sea of fire, he was burned by the flames, and after suffering huge pain, he was directly swallowed by the sea of fire.
"Xiao Luan, executioner, you enter the tenth floor first, and I have the rest of the matter. After the three of them rounded again, Xiao Tiaozi slapped the executioner's shoulder hard, leaving a meaningful gaze.
This made the executioner stunned and puzzled, but he didn't ask too much, after all, he had already arrived here, and he was only one step away from the tenth floor, and it was unlikely that he would be eliminated.
After Xiao Luan and the executioner went to the tenth floor, Xiao Tiaozi was relieved, sighed deeply, and then looked at the beating number in the picture: "Eight hundred and sixty-one..."
"Nine hundred and ninety-six..."
"Nine hundred and ninety-seven..."
"Has it finally arrived? Master, Master, it's time for the disciples to repay you. Xiao Tiaozi looked at the number that jumped to nine hundred and ninety-seven, suddenly raised his head, exuded a shocking force, and then completely blocked the door of the tenth floor: "This road is impassable." ”
