Chapter 4 The Grass Mustard Dog
Mocang Mountain covers an area of thousands of miles. The Seven Peerless Sects are located in the central mountain region, which seems to be very close to Black Rock City, but in fact it is a hundred miles away.
The spirit boat flies fast. About half an hour, it has reached the mountain gate.
The scene paused on both sides. A group of children who were addicted to the spells of the immortal family woke up at this moment and found themselves hovering in the air on the spirit boat. The black-clothed immortal master at the front took out a token at this moment and threw it straight forward.
Rumble!
There was a muffled sound of explosions. In front of what seemed to be a void, a portal with colorful spiritual light flashed. The children were amazed, and before they could see clearly, the spirit boat under them flew forward with a 'whoosh', straight through the portal.
A moment ago, the sky was dark, and only a few stars flashed. In an instant, seven majestic peaks appeared in front of him, and the peak body had a flame-like aura lingering, as if seven spiritual pillars rose from the ground and plunged into the sky.
"That's what it is...... Seven Peerless Sects!"
The children were blown away by the sight in their eyes. Wang Hao is no exception, looking at the seven peaks in front of him, the buildings and palaces can be faintly seen, jagged and magnificent. There is a fairy aura on the peak, and the spiritual mist is swirling. There are also flocks of large crane-like birds, which make crisp chirpings from time to time and soar in the moonlight.
What a fairy temperament!
Wang Hao was amazed in his heart. At the same time, he noticed that the spirit boat under him slowed down and flew towards the right front.
Seven peerless sects, seven vein inheritance, seven peaks, distributed in the shape of a lotus.
It didn't take long for the spirit boat to arrive at its destination, the Poison Peak. This peak is located on the south side of the main peak, the peak body is verdant, and exotic flowers and plants are planted everywhere. Before the spirit boat approached, the children smelled a strong medicinal aroma and greeted them.
"Walk down the spirit boat in turn and join the team!"
The spirit boat came to rest on the north side of the peak. There is a kilometer-long radius here, and when Wang Hao walked down from the spirit boat, he found that there were dozens of children.
Including them, there were hundreds of children gathered on the grounds. The peak is windy, and the north is even more chilly. Many of the children shivered with cold, but they did not dare to move, and stood there respectfully.
The spirit boat vanished. The black-clothed immortal master appeared directly in front of him out of thin air. This person has always turned his back to Wang Hao, and now he can see his true face clearly, he is in his forties, with an eagle nose and deep eyes, and his face is gloomy as water.
"Entering the Immortal Gate with a mortal body is the greatest honor in your life!"
The black-clothed immortal master spoke slowly, his tone was very flattering to his appearance, indifferent without any emotion, "If you want to stay, if you want to become a member of the immortal sect, you have to go through the test of three levels!" At this point, he pointed to a grotto carved out of the mountain not far behind him, "Run over, you can run in alive, this is the first test!"
The children were at a loss. The place is only two or three hundred meters away from the grotto, and it is easy to run over. In other words, this first test seems to be easy to pass.
Wang Hao doesn't think so. The adult mind made him realize that this matter was by no means as simple as it seemed, and there was even a faint sense of crisis in his heart.
"Now it's time to go!"
After the announcement of the black-clothed immortal master, the hundred children immediately spread their feet and ran towards the grotto with all their might. Wang Hao started half a beat slower, but his running speed was fast, and he quickly surpassed his companions and rushed forward desperately.
However, when he was less than 100 meters away from the grotto, a sudden change occurred.
Wisps of red air suddenly rose from under his feet, the ground instantly became scorching, the soles of his shoes were like stepping on a red soldering iron, and there was an unbearable scorching pain in his feet.
Wang Hao was shocked. Looking around, the rising red air currents have formed a barrier blocking the way. Crying and screaming rang out in all directions. Looking back, a child fell to the ground, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into a fire hole, his body burned, and he lost his breath in the blink of an eye. There were children like him, who endured burning pain and stood still not knowing what to do. Of course, more of them were crying and shouting and running backwards, trying to escape from the area covered with red air currents.
"Those who retreat will be killed!"
Sen Leng's words rang out. Thick vines emerged from the ground, enveloping a dozen retreating children, instantly crushing their bodies and spilling flesh and entrails all over the ground.
The rest of the children, who wanted to retreat, were so frightened that they ran forward crying and screaming.
There is no way back!
Wang Hao woke up suddenly. Without even thinking about it, he took a step and ran towards the grotto with all his strength. He could feel the soles of his shoes burned, and his feet touching the hot ground, making a 'snort' sound. There is also the red air flow that lingers around him, like a flame burning his body.
Indescribable pain spread all over his body, Wang Hao gritted his teeth and endured, running desperately, trying to escape from this purgatory land.
Whew......
The first children finally passed the test and successfully arrived at the grotto. Among them was Wang Hao, when he sat on the wet ground and gasped for breath, he took the opportunity to check his body, and the soles of his feet were blurred and charred. The body was covered with burn blisters.
The other children were the same, not least injured, huddled in the grotto, crying in low voices. But compared to the children outside who fell to the ground, their bodies charred, they were lucky.
Soon, the second and third batches of lucky people successfully passed the customs and arrived at the grotto.
Wang Hao endured the severe pain in his body, and counted silently in his heart, counting himself, there were thirty-two children who passed the test. The rest were outside, reduced to charred corpses.
"Come on, clean it up!"
Outside, the black-clothed immortal master still looked indifferent, as if these dead mortal children had nothing to do with him, and just let people drag their bodies to the back mountain.
A young immortal master walked over, bowed, and asked in a respectful tone, "Real people, those who have passed the level inside...... Do you need to give them treatment?"
The black-clothed immortal master smiled coldly: "Tomorrow morning is the second level, few of them can pass this batch, and the treatment is also a waste, just give some food!"
Burns are the most painful. Wang Hao couldn't wait to enter the realm of mountains and seas immediately and heal his injuries with the help of spring water. But he didn't dare to do this, in the Seven Peerless Sect, the methods of immortal cultivators are mysterious and unpredictable, and the slightest carelessness will lead to death.
He couldn't help it, so he could only take off his clothes and stick his naked body against the stone wall, alleviating the pain with the help of the cold cold.
It worked. Seeing this, the other children followed suit, and the crying in the grotto gradually disappeared, except for the sound of wheezing one after another.
Not long after, a basket of food was thrown in. The aroma is fragrant, and the basket is full of snow-white rice balls.
"Ah! This is made by Linggu!"
"My grandfather ate it once on his birthday, and it tasted great!"
"It's so fragrant! You say, will we eat Linggu food every day in the future!"
A group of children forgot the terrible experience and physical pain, and scrambled for Linggu rice balls to eat deliciously. While eating, I look forward to a better life in the future. Wang Hao also took a rice ball, looking at the innocent and satisfied faces of these children, and felt inexplicably in his heart.
This is only the first level, and most of the people are dead. After the remaining two levels, how many people will be left here?
A bunch of fools!
He smiled bitterly, he was also a fool, he used to naively think that as long as he spent some spirit stones, he could enter the Seven Peerless Sect and become a miscellaneous servant. It turns out that it is as difficult for an ordinary mortal as to enter the immortal gate.
It's useless to regret it. Since I came, I can only pray for God's blessing to let me pass the test smoothly.
Early the next morning. When it was still dawn, everyone was woken up and went to the site outside the grotto. At a glance, the black-clothed immortal master last night, as well as more than a dozen Tsing Yi immortal masters, were all waiting at the venue. Not far from them, there was a three-foot-high iron tripod. The inside of the ding was full of crimson soup, and there was no firewood visible underneath, but it was boiling and steaming.
"The second test begins!"
The black-clothed immortal master didn't talk nonsense, and directly signaled to a group of three to jump into the tripod in turns.
Yesterday's test is vivid, like purgatory, miserable. Now it is about to jump into the boiling water, and all the children are full of horror, and no one dares to accept such a test.
Seeing this, the black-clothed immortal master was impatient, and with a wave of his sleeve robe, he rushed over with an invisible force, directly rolled up the three children, and threw them into the boiling ding.
Ahh......hhh
A terrible scream rang out. The three children who fell into the tripod opened their flesh in an instant, some waved their hands and shouted for help, and some wanted to climb out of the iron tripod, but they seemed to be bound by an invisible force and couldn't climb out.
Ten breaths later. When the three children were fished out of the ding, they curled up and lay motionless on the ground. Their exposed hands and feet were pale white, and their bodies seemed to have been cooked, giving off the smell of cooked meat.
The children who were close to each other vomited after hearing this. Those who are far away are also frightened. Although Wang Hao has the mind of an adult, he was still frightened when he saw this scene, and his body trembled unconsciously.
In the second round, three more children were thrown into the ding. By the time limit was reached, two of them were dead, and one of them had half a breath left.
At this time, an immortal master made a move and cast a spell to heal. I have to say that the fairy law is wonderful, and the surviving child quickly came to his senses. Except for physical weakness, all injuries healed.
Round 3, Round 4...... More than half of the numbers were numbered, and there were only three survivors.
Finally it was Wang Hao's turn. He was enveloped by an invisible force and thrown into the ding, along with two other children.
The moment the body touched the red soup in Dingnai, the indescribable pain spread all over the body. The boiling soup drowned him, and he felt like he was going to be steamed, and his instinctive reaction was waving his hands and feet, and shouting. But there is only one thought in my heart, to live, I must live!
The time limit has finally passed. When Wang Hao, like the children before, was fished out and thrown on the ground, his consciousness was blurred and almost lost. But I could feel that someone was approaching and looking.
"Two dead, one alive!"
"Spell Healing!"
A light and refreshing scent that moisturizes the body like spring water. Wang Hao, who was unconscious, quickly woke up, and the moment he regained consciousness, he felt himself curled up and did not show his feet. So he continued to pretend to be hunchbacked, and he was weak to stand up.
"This little camel's tolerance is not bad!"
Perhaps the cause of the physical defect. Wang Hao attracted the attention of the black-clothed immortal master, but he only glanced at it, and waved his hand to take Wang Hao down.
The test continues!
When Wang Hao walked towards the grotto step by step with trembling legs, the terrible screams from behind him made people shudder.
This is the world of immortal cultivators!
Treat mortals like mustard dogs, wanton killing, cruel and ruthless. Only the strong can truly control their own destiny.
Wang Hao, who lowered his head and walked forward, inadvertently flashed a sharp glint in his eyes at this moment......
