Chapter 35: The Trial of Tianhua
Shi Xuan did not despair, "Ladies and gentlemen, Shi Xuan will definitely be able to suppress this force, I hope you can give me a chance, I will prove myself, if I can't suppress it in the future, please also ask you to kill the kid, I have no regrets", Shi Xuan said to everyone.
Dai Tiande looked at the elders, and these elders began to discuss how to deal with this matter.
"Senior brother, what do you think about this matter?" Dai Tiande asked Xie Tianxing, the deputy head of the thunderous voice.
"Senior brother, with all due respect, although he has excellent cultivation talent, but the power of nightmares in his body is extremely strong, or a few years, it is estimated that you and I will not be able to deal with it, now he can suppress it for a while, it will be difficult to say in the future, from the safety of this sect, I advocate abolishing his cultivation, leaving him in the sect to observe at any time, lest the nightmare grow to a terrible point and threaten the safety of all beings", Xie Tianxing has been in charge of the Tianhua Sect's prison for many years without talking about personal feelings.
Dai Mengli heard that Xie Tianxing was going to abolish Shi Xuan's cultivation, and hurriedly came out and said: "Senior Uncle Xie, Senior Brother Shi Xuan fell into a nightmare before, but his will was extremely firm, even if he was tortured by Wang Zhuo a lot, he still kept his heart, and finally succeeded in getting rid of Wang Zhuo's control, I believe that he will be able to suppress the nightmare in the future, and finally calcine, and ask all the teachers and uncles to give him a chance", Dai Mengli does not want to ruin a person's future so easily.
Jiang Heng also stepped forward: "Ladies and gentlemen, Shi Xuan's talent is excellent, his heart is pure, he must be a rare genius in the future, we have all seen Wang Zhuo's ruthlessness, he can get out of the control of the nightmare so quickly shows that his will is strong enough, and I hope to teach him a chance."
Dai Tiande looked at the other elders, most of them advocated giving him a chance, and a few of them, like Xie Tianxing, advocated abolishing Shi Xuan's cultivation and putting him under house arrest in Tianhua Sect.
Looking at the people who were talking, Dai Tiande, the head of Tianhua Sect, thought about it and said: "The second son has a pure heart and excellent talent, my Tianhua Sect is a famous orthodox family in the world, and I should set an example, if I am afraid of the nightmare threat in his body, I will hastily abolish his cultivation, and it will be difficult to hide his mouth, so I decided to give him a chance, if he is difficult to control himself in the future, and he will be in trouble again, I will personally take action to eradicate the disaster."
At this moment, Xie Tianxing opened his mouth and said: "Brother Zhang's brother is kind-hearted, but the old man is in charge of the prison, in order to prevent him from threatening the safety of my sect in the future, if he wants to become our disciple, he must go through the three tests of the old man, if he can't pass, the old man will expel him from the sect as a prisoner, if he can pass the test, the old man will agree to him enter my Tianhua Sect, senior brother, what do you think."
"Well, since the junior brother is also thinking about the sect, what are your three tests?" Dai Tiande asked.
"The first old man wants to test your strength and talent, whether it is worth our effort for you, you need to challenge a disciple of my Tianhua Sect who is a fifth-order disciple of the Ning Yuan Realm, and hold on to a stick of incense in his hand. Xie Tianxing said.
"Senior Uncle Xie, even if Shi Xuan stepped into the Ning Yuan Realm immediately, it would be impossible for him to beat a fifth-order disciple, wouldn't this test be too difficult?" Dai Mengli asked.
"I didn't say that he had to fight, as long as he could stick to a stick of incense, his, I also want to understand his potential, if there is no such potential, it is not worth the risk at all", Xie Tianxing said resolutely and decisively.
Dai Mengli didn't know what to say, she looked at Shi Xuan, who was a little helpless, and wanted to help him.
"Shi Xuan is willing to accept this test from Uncle Xie, if I can't do it, I will leave by myself, then what is the second test?" Shi Xuan didn't want to embarrass Dai Mengli, and said decisively.
"The second test is your determination and endurance, in the face of such a terrifying demon as the Nightmare King, it is impossible to defeat without strong determination and endurance, I need you to break through the ten heavenly steps of my Tianhua Sect", Xie Tianxing said.
"Senior brother, isn't this too harsh?" Dai Tiande felt a little too much.
"Although the tenth level of the Heavenly Rank is difficult, it is much easier than the nightmare in his body," Xie Tianxing said.
"Although I don't know what the Heavenly Rank in Uncle Xie's mouth is, but if I can suppress even the nightmare, but I can't pass the Heavenly Ladder, then I don't have to go down, I will take this test", it is not easy for Shi Xuan to get to this point, that is, he has experienced the darkest moments, and what is so terrible about the tenth Heavenly Step.
"Okay, have courage, the third test of your humanity, the old man will cast a powerful spirit array in it, which can temporarily stimulate the nightmare in your body, I need to see the human nature of you when you are dominated by nightmares again, to see if you can turn back in the darkest moment, if you can complete the three tests of the old man, the old man has nothing else to say", Xie Tianxing said.
"I accept Uncle Xie's three tests, if I fail, I will have no complaints if I dispose of it", Shi Xuan replied resolutely.
"Since it has been agreed, then the old man will give you ten days to adjust, although you break through to the Ning Yuan Realm in these days, you will have the first test on the eleventh day," Xie Tianxing said.
"I'll be ready," Shi Xuan replied.
"Since everyone has reached a consensus on this matter, then Shi Xuan, you can stay here for the time being, and make a decision when you pass the test," Dai Tiande said to Shi Xuan.
"Yes," Shi Xuan replied.
"Now that everything is clear, then I order the Criminal Prison Hall to immediately issue a wanted notice for the mainland, issue a wanted notice to the mainland, be sure to arrest Wang Zhuo, who committed a great crime, and notify all the rivers and lakes to work together to arrest him, this matter is personally supervised by you, Senior Brother."
"Follow the orders of my senior brother," Xie Tianxing said.
"Okay, that's all for today, everyone has their own business".
Everyone left the main hall one after another, Shi Xuan didn't expect that Xie Tianxing would give him these three tests, and now he had no other choice but to go all out.
"I'm sorry, Senior Sister, I couldn't help you avoid the test, Uncle Xie has been so unbiased all these years, even if he is in charge, he has to give him three points", Dai Mengli said.
"It's okay, I was going to participate in the selection of disciples, just as it was an early selection, what could be more difficult to deal with than the Nightmare King?" Shi Xuan put down the burden in his heart at this moment, he knew that as long as he was willing to work hard, he would have a chance to defeat the Nightmare in the future.
"Seeing your confident appearance, I am relieved, you must be careful, Senior Uncle Xie will definitely not release water, he is definitely a difficult guy to find a fifth-order disciple, you hurry up and break through to the Ning Yuan Realm these days, this will have a greater chance", Dai Mengli said.
"I don't know if Senior Sister can help me buy a few spiritual materials, my spiritual skills have reached a critical moment, and there are still a few spiritual materials missing?" Shi Xuan took out a list and handed it to Dai Mengli.
Dai Mengli took a look at these spiritual materials and said, "Don't worry, these spiritual materials are really hard to find outside, but I can find Tianhua Sect, and I will find someone to send them to you tomorrow." Dai Mengli said.
"I will give you the money then, thank you senior sister for your help", Shi Xuan knew that with such a behemoth as Tianhua Sect, there would definitely be no shortage of these spiritual materials.
"It's just a welcome gift from my senior sister, I won't use these secular currencies in the sect in the future, we will use the contribution of the sect to exchange it," Dai Mengli said.
"Thank you, senior sister, Shi Xuan will definitely repay this kindness in the future", Shi Xuan was very grateful.
"You pass the three tests first, and then you can make a good breakthrough in the next few days, I'll help you make these spiritual materials first", Dai Mengli finished speaking and left.
Shi Xuan returned to his residence, he didn't dare to delay, stepped up his cultivation Now that he has reached a critical moment, he must not be careless.
In the past few days, he has the heart to break through to the Ning Yuan Realm, but the Xuanhuo True Technique and the Wood Burning Shackles he has learned now are a little unpopular, and it is still a little difficult to deal with ordinary people and the masters of the Tianhua Sect, the Burning Sun Meteorite Technique he obtained in the Divine Hiding Land is really good, but unfortunately he does not have all the spiritual materials, and he has to wait for the news of Senior Sister Dai.
The True Dragon Bo Heavenly Decision, now he has high hopes, this exercise, as the secret of the Danyang Empire, has its own merits.
Shi Xuan flipped through the Tianlong Bo Heavenly Decision, the first article he is basically getting started now, but he still can't fully implement it, he was able to burst out of three times the attack at the beginning, and now he feels that he can burst out his strength five times the strength, and now his aura has been greatly improved, and the aura he can call is even more abundant.
This is Tianhua Sect, he is not afraid that others will see his exercises, and he also wants to take this opportunity to secretly find the former prince of the Danyang Empire who was taken away by the servants.
The next morning, a senior brother found Shi Xuan and sent him some spiritual materials, saying that Senior Sister Dai asked him to send them, Shi Xuan thanked this senior brother, he finally got together the introductory materials for cultivating the Burning Sun Meteor Technique, with these things to help him protect the meridians in his body, he was no longer afraid that the domineering power of this spiritual technique would hurt the meridians in his body.
Shi Xuan had already memorized this spiritual technique in his mind, just waiting to gather the spiritual materials.
On this day, Shi Xuan processed the spiritual materials one by one, and began to use them according to the requirements of the spiritual skills, he followed the mantra of the spiritual skills, carefully urged the exercises, and the violent fire spirit power in the body continued to be sent out from the dantian, through the many meridians in the body, Shi Xuan accurately controlled every force, once it made a mistake, it was possible to destroy the meridians, or even die violently, he had to be careful, among all the elements, the fire element was one of the most violent elements, and there was a huge test of the strength of the meridians.
Historically, there have been some powerful fire spirit masters who pursued ultra-high attacks to the extreme, resulting in damage to their own meridians, and the most serious direct violent death.
The spiritual materials that Shi Xuan prepared this time had an excellent protective effect on the meridians, and he was able to successfully perform this powerful spiritual skill.
He can only learn part of this spiritual technique for the time being, and he can't practice the rest of the part.
The set of spiritual skills he cultivated is powerful, which can make him more proficient in controlling flames, and even the previous spiritual skills have increased a lot of power, the Burning Sun Meteor Technique, he can summon a huge body of fire and carry out a meteor-like terrifying blow to the target area, and the power depends on the released cultivation and elemental affinity, as well as the ability to manipulate flames.
At this moment, Shi Xuan is like a god of fire descending into the world, a terrifying flame is raging in the wind, there are many targets in front of the field, this is the human target we use for our disciples to practice and can move quickly under the effect of the formation, Shi Xuan is on top of a fast-moving target at this moment, a large ball of Bai Sensen's flames rose from his hands, the flames flew to the top of his head, aiming at the target, a large group of flames hit like a meteor, Shi Xuan fully controlled the direction of the flames, aiming at the target as much as possible, only a few fire meteors missed, these flames quickly covered the moving target, and the target soon became a huge fireball。
"What a terrifying flame meteor, as long as the control ability is the most accurate in the future, no matter how fast the enemy runs, he will never want to escape", the flame attack of this spiritual skill is many times stronger than the Xuanhuo True Spirit he obtained in Tianhai Yuan before.
In the past few days, Shi Xuan has made every effort to consolidate these two exercises, which is the key to his subsequent test.
Over the course of a few days, his fire control ability has become more precise, and his casting speed has also increased considerably.
On the eighth day, he finally ushered in a critical moment, his whole body was overflowing with aura, and his breakthrough was imminent.
Feeling the abundant energy circulating in his body, Shi Xuan sat upright and guarded his heart, he began to try to impact the last big point above his legs, one after another pure energy continued to impact the Yongquan point under his control, the legs were scorching, the major meridians were flashing red light, as the energy continued to gather on his legs, his legs trembled with pain under the calcination of the real fire, Shi Xuan's whole body sweat was terrifying high temperature formation, at this moment he gritted his tooth crown in pain, continued to insist, and after a while he could open the most important acupoint on his legs, and he could also advance smoothly。
"If you can't even endure this pain, you don't need to participate in any trials, it's best to leave directly," Shi Xuan roared angrily.
Finally, he clearly felt an extremely pure power pouring into the Yongquan Acupoint, and at this moment, the Yongquan Acupoint began to radiate light, and he succeeded, followed by a powerful force, "Is this what it feels like to be in the Ning Yuan Realm?" At this moment, countless spiritual energy condensed in the central acupoints in his body, at this time, an extremely important acupoint in the abdomen of the human body is also a sign of the Condensation Yuan Realm, when it reaches this stage, the power of the body will be gathered in the central acupoint, and the power of the central acupoint can be collected and released, and it can lead to all the acupoints in the whole body, which is the center in the real sense. The condensation and convergence center of the Yuan Qi in the body is also the source of the Yuan Condensation Realm at this stage.
Shi Xuan heard Su Li say that this central acupoint is very important, it must not be destroyed by the enemy in battle, once the central point is destroyed, then this person's whole body will stop here, and all the power of the big acupoint behind must pass through the center, without the center, it is impossible to continue to practice.
"It seems that in the future, the spirit armor I forge must focus on protecting the central acupoint and dantian, otherwise once I get injured in the battle, it will be dangerous", Shi Xuan thought of Su Li's teachings.
At this time, his mind found out the life of Tianhaiyuan, and he didn't know if Liu Ming, Song Renjie, and that playful girl were okay with them? He has been away from home for almost a year, and people at this age miss their relatives the most.
"I must complete the three trials, and I will never disappoint my relatives and friends who follow me", Shi Xuan put away all his thoughts and fell into deep meditation again, he continued to consolidate this hard-won fruit.
This day has finally arrived, ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, Shi Xuan has straightened out his outfit, a complete set of second-order spirit armor plus fist gloves and broadsword, at this moment, he is majestic, his heart is full of fighting spirit, the immaturity on his face has faded a lot, he knows that today he is facing a strong man who is five orders higher than him, Xie Tianxing never talks about personal feelings, he will definitely choose the most difficult opponent to deal with him.
Shi Xuan came to a huge martial arts arena early to wait, and at this time, there were also a lot of people in the venue, they were the friends of the fifth-order powerhouse who came to help.
Jiang Heng, Dai Mengli, and Lin Zixu also came to the martial arts arena.
"Shi Xuan has seen two senior brothers, senior sisters", Shi Xuan took the initiative to greet him.
"It turns out that Senior Brother Shi Xuan is also so handsome, and he will harm many girls and children in the future," Dai Mengli said as she looked at the heroic young man.
Even Lin Zixu, who is usually arrogant, treats him differently, and Shi Xuan at this moment absolutely subverts his previous views. In the past, in his eyes, Shi Xuan was an evil little monster.
"I also want to see your true strength today, don't let us down", Lin Zixu said.
"I will definitely do my best, this is my only chance", Shi Xuan replied calmly.
Many of the other senior brothers were also observing this young man, and they were talking about it.
"Senior Uncle Xie doesn't know what to think, let a disciple who has just stepped into the Ning Yuan Realm challenge a fifth-order disciple, isn't this obviously looking for abuse?"
"It is estimated that this kid was unlucky to offend Uncle Xie, and deliberately taught him a lesson."
"How can you think like that, who is Master Xie, how can he make it difficult for a small disciple, it is estimated that there is a special reason", someone said.
"Why do you care about it, just take a good look, and it's better not to inquire about some things, otherwise it won't be good for the disciples in the prison hall to hear about it," someone said worriedly.
"The disciples of the Prison Hall have been too arrogant over the years, and I hope that this kid can teach them a good lesson and suppress their arrogance," someone said.
"Don't talk about it, the disciples of the Prison Hall are here, you see," someone said.
In the distance, a group of disciples dressed in green clothes came here, and the originally noisy crowd slowly quieted down, all these years, they were all afraid of the disciples of the prison hall, and those who rarely exceeded the rules would be punished by them, and these people didn't like them very much.
"Senior brother, Uncle Xie has not known how to restrain his disciples in recent years, you see that now these disciples see them like mice and cats", Dai Mengli also complained.
"They don't dare to make a move on you, why are you so angry?" Lin Zixu said.
"There are many disciples in the Prison Hall, but it is a bit excessive, if this continues, many brothers and sisters will be dissatisfied, in a few days, I will go to Master Xie to react", Jiang Heng obviously knew about these things, but many times due to his own duties, he could not interfere in the affairs of the Prison Hall.
"Brother Shi Xuan, later, you will teach the disciples of the Prison Hall a good lesson for Senior Sister and combat their arrogance," Dai Mengli said.
"Well, senior sister, you still have to worry about me, as long as he doesn't teach me a hard lesson, I'm already very satisfied", Shi Xuan directly embarrassed.
"Sister, I believe in you, you have to work hard", Dai Mengli encouraged.
Jiang Heng also sweated for Shi Xuan, it was already good for Shi Xuan to be able to protect himself, and he wanted him to teach a lesson to opponents who were five orders higher than him.
Soon, a group of people from the Torture Prison Hall came to their side, "I have seen two senior brothers and Senior Sister Dai", and a fifth-order disciple from the Torture Prison Hall came to greet them.
"I didn't expect Uncle Xie to pick you to deal with Shi Xuan?" Lin Zixu teased.
"Senior Brother Lin smiled, I, Zhang Lai, also acted on orders, and the disciples of the master did not dare to disobey it," Zhang Lai said as he looked at Shi Xuan on the side.
"In Xia Shixuan, I have seen Senior Brother Zhang", Shi Xuan took the initiative to say hello.
"Oh, you are the one who wants to challenge me, I don't understand, how can the master be so difficult for you, the senior brother can't let you later, if you accidentally hurt you, please forgive me, after all, there are no eyes in fists and feet", Zhang Lai said.
"Senior Brother Zhang doesn't have to be polite, he can be defeated by Senior Brother, Shi Xuan has no regrets," Shi Xuan said.
"That's good, we'll see you on stage", Zhang Lai walked away after speaking.
"What an arrogant disciple, a little fifth-order disciple dares to be presumptuous in front of us, they have indeed failed to clean up in the past few years", Lin Zixu couldn't stand it.
"Although he is very arrogant, his strength is definitely Shi Xuan's nemesis at this stage, Shi Xuan's fire system exercises are destined to be restrained by his water system, and he is also a full five orders higher than Shi Xuan, which is almost crushing", Lin Zixu said the indisputable fact.
"That's not necessarily, although water can restrain fire, but the same powerful fire can also burn away weak water, as long as you are strong enough, it doesn't matter what attributes." Jiang Heng said calmly to Shi Xuan.
"Yes, besides, you only need to stick to a stick of incense, and you don't have to defeat him, I just talked about it just now, I didn't want you to teach him a lesson, on the contrary, you have to protect yourself", Dai Mengli didn't joke this time.
"I know how to be measured, after all, passing the three tests is the most important thing." Shi Xuan said.
At this moment, a lot of people have gathered in the venue, and many people want to come here to watch the excitement, a disciple who has just stepped into the Ning Yuan Realm is fighting against a fifth-order person, in their opinion, it is a joke, it is purely looking for abuse.
Soon, several strong figures arrived at the top of the martial arts arena, and the head of the sect, Dai Tiande, took Xie Tianxing and a few elders to the viewing seat of the martial arts arena, and their arrival immediately caused a lot of discussion below.
"I didn't expect this battle to attract the head coach and a few uncles to be present, it's incredible", some people felt that this time was different from the previous battles.
"Yes, when will the head coach care about such an ordinary battle."
"Could it be that there is something special about this young man, or is it that the head of the sect is going to accept apprentices again?"
"It's been ten years since I've been busy with teaching affairs and haven't accepted any more apprentices, so it shouldn't be possible," someone said.
"Silence", Xie Tianxing's voice was like thunder, shocking the audience, and everyone in the venue quieted down.
"Zhang Lai, are you and Shi Xuan ready?"
"Disciple Zhang Lai is ready."
"Kid Shi Xuan is ready to start this trial."
"Okay, according to the agreement, this is your first test, if you fail, don't blame the old man for being ruthless," Xie Tianxing said.
"Shi Xuan voluntarily accepted the test, without complaint or regret."
"The battle between you, point to point, you can't attack each other's important acupoints, and you can't face each other to life and death, the other party admits defeat and stops immediately," Xie Tianxing said.
Dai Tiande nodded and motioned for the start of the battle.
