Chapter 289
A month later, Ning Yuan finally completed the evolution of "Three-Edged Gun Technique" and successfully awakened the "Yanyan" talent.
As Ning Yuan expected, as a spiritual calculus talent, "Yan Yan" is very powerful for the blessing of Qimen Shushu. Originally, Ning Yuan could only calculate time to "days" using Qimen ability, but now he can accurately calculate "seconds". Even if you don't take the initiative to open the "Yanyan", the thinking ability that is passively improved by the talent can also be accurately calculated to the time of the earth's branch.
With the improved thinking deduction ability of "Yanyan" and the powerful memory reproduction ability of "Sunset", coupled with the spearmanship ability that still needs to be tested in actual combat, Ning Yuan finally has a seven-point grasp of seizing the opportunity.
That's right, it's "seven points".
Even though his strength has undergone earth-shaking changes, Ning Yuan's grasp of obtaining this opportunity has only improved from "five points" to "seven points".
For Ning Yuan, there is no difference between "one point" grasp and "five points" grasp, they are both gambling. Half chance and half half.
Although the "seven points" grasp is still gambling, at least it is already gambling with confidence and preparation. The chances are slightly higher than the original half-to-half.
Don't underestimate this slightly higher chance, which is basically the difference between heaven and hell.
After Ning Yuan replenished a Bigu Pill, he adjusted his state to the best, looked up at the huge Secret Realm Dunjia Gate, took a deep breath, and raised his feet to step into the door.
As Ning Yuan stepped in, the ripples on the stone gate began to ripple.
After walking out of the Dunjia Gate, Ning Yuan appeared in a stone compartment, and behind him was a closed stone door that had just extinguished the ripples.
From this moment on, he will completely lose his way out.
Ning Yuan glanced at the compartment vigilantly, turned on the "sunset" and began to compare it with the memory of the boundary line.
"It's the same as I remember." Ning Yuan said secretly in his heart, "It seems that at least there won't be much deviation here." ”
Ning Yuan, who was a little relieved, maintained the memory of the boundary line in the state of "sunset", and walked out of the compartment to officially step into the first trial place of the secret realm.
A huge stone monument nine feet high divides the space outside the compartment into two passages, left and right.
On the stele is a huge "Qin" character, and the words "life" and "death" are engraved on the top of the left and right passages.
This is a huge labyrinth, Ning Yuan can only choose to enter from one of the two passages of "life" and "death", once he enters a certain passage, the entrance will be immediately sealed, and there is no choice but to move forward.
In the realm, Ning Yuan used cheating to go through the two passages of "life" and "death", and the intact nine lives were consumed in two at the "life" gate and four at the "death" gate.
After Ning Yuan reproduced the relevant memories, he chose the "death" door without too much hesitation.
In general, the "life" door is a little simpler than the "death" door, but the benefits are slightly worse.
In this case alone, Ning Yuan is inclined to choose the "birth" door, but the choice of the "life" and "death" doors is also related to the qualification to enter the last door. Ning Yuan could only choose to live towards "death".
After stepping into the "death" door, the passage behind him was closed by a broken dragon stone, and the moment the eyes fell into darkness, the lights on the two walls of the passage automatically lit up, emitting a dim light to illuminate the passage.
Ning Yuan looked at the bluestone slabs distributed under his feet and fixed his mind, while comparing his memory, he pinched the Qimen Seal Recipe, and carefully calculated the direction.
With the blessing of the "Yanyan" talent, Ning Yuan followed the guidance of the darkness and looked at the bluestone slab on the right, compared his memory and stepped on it carefully.
Safe.
"Same." Ning Yuan muttered, finally having some confidence in the realm memory of this labyrinth.
However, in line with the principle of caution, Ning Yuan did not pass according to Meng Lang's memory, but chose to carefully and slowly compare his memory while calculating.
In this way, he carefully advanced a hundred steps, exactly the same as the safe path in the memory of the boundary line.
Seeing this situation, Ning Yuan's confidence in the reliability of the boundary line memory increased greatly, and he unconsciously wanted to speed up.
However, when Ning Yuan just wanted to move forward directly according to his memory, the movement of his left hand subconsciously brushing his neck made him calm down instantly.
The mark of his first death was a stark reminder of the consequences of his carelessness.
Ning Yuan's originally somewhat relaxed mood instantly tightened, and he almost made the same self-righteous mistake again.
Ning Yuan, who had calmed down, raised his hand and touched his neck, took a deep breath, and once again compared his memory while calculating.
After taking another fifty steps, Ning Yuan stopped.
Then I began to rejoice that I didn't have the urge just now. The direction of the one hundred and fifty-first step is different from the one in memory.
Sure enough, the memory of the boundary line inevitably deviated.
After Ning Yuan vigilantly tentatively stepped on the calculated direction to confirm safety, the deviation of this boundary line was confirmed.
Everything is just as originally envisaged, and the memory of the boundary line can only be used as a reference in the end.
In the continuous calculation and memory comparison, there are three positions in the channel of the first paragraph that are different from those in memory, and the result is a victory of calculation.
After walking the first section of the passage of five hundred and sixty steps, Ning Yuan came to the first parting of the road.
Ning Yuan, who was in front of the fork, looked up at the sign above, there was a red flame mark on the passage on the left hand side, and an aqua blue ice mark on the right hand side.
In memory, the flame passage has certain requirements for the "explosive power" of the challenger. Although it is also a three-foot-long and wide stone slab with a three-three distribution of "self" zigzag passages, the time spent on each stone slab is only one-third of the ground branch scale time, that is, five minutes. The Imprisonment Rune on the Slate will activate to immobilize the challenger, and the challenger will be burned to death by the auto-activated flame trap. It is not an instantaneous high-temperature vaporization, but a little bit of burning people to death.
In the flame passage, the player needs to calculate and make decisions very quickly, and can only pass through by calculating a safe position in the shortest possible time and judging the correct path to avoid a dead end.
That's right, whether it's a safe place for either a flame passage or an ice trail, it's not necessarily the right path, and it can also be a dead end.
However, the "mercy" of the Ice and Fire Passage is that as long as it is a safe stone slab, even if it is a dead end, you can waste time recalculating the correct path. Oh, and it's naturally not feasible to go straight back in turn. Because the safety slate is subject to change.
The rules of the Ice Passage are similar to those of the Flame Passage, but the requirements are no longer short-term calculations and judgment, but the ability to endure low temperatures and seize fleeting opportunities. The temperature in the water ripple channel will continue to decrease, the challenger has two quarters of an hour on each slab, which is thirty minutes to calculate the direction, and the runes on the slate that are in a timed activation state within two quarters of an hour will fix the player's feet on the slate, and when the time is up, the challenger only has three breaths to move to the next correct slate, and the player who has exceeded the time will be fixed by the activated rune again and will trigger another hidden rune to be frozen into ice and shattered in an instant.
Neither the Flame Passage nor the Water Ripple Passage is so easy or very demanding for the player in all aspects, and these two passages are necessary for challengers, because the Ice Passage is followed by the same flame passage as the other side, and the Fire Passage is followed by the Ice Passage. This first fork in the road is simply an order for the player to choose which lane to challenge first.
Ning Yuan thought for a while, compared his memories again, raised his hand and touched his neck and pondered for a long time, then cautiously stepped into the ice pattern passage.
After Ning Yuan stepped into the passage, the stone door at the entrance fell again, and the ice crystal fluorescence lit up in the passage, illuminating the entire ice-blue ice stone passage.
The Ice Passage is made of a unique "ice stone" on the continent of Nino. The walls of the passage on both sides are made of two five-foot-long and wide-wide ice stones, and the ground is paved with three-foot-long and wide-wide ice-stone slabs. In my memory, the whole passage is in an irregular "concave" shape, and there are many bifurcations and dead ends.
The "Ice Stone" is a unique stone on the continent of Neno, which is characterized by the fact that it automatically emits cold air when exposed to light, and the longer it passes, the heavier the cold air will be spewed. When engraved with a special rune, it can freeze the contact instantly after activation.
Ning Yuan stood in the safety opening in front of the passage, that is, on the only bluestone slab with a length and width of ninety-three in the first section of the entire passage, staring solemnly at the ice passage in front of him, which was no different from the ice crystal world, his face was slightly bitter.
Under the glow of the ice crystal, the passage built by the ice-blue transparent "Cold Ice Stone" is really not much different from the ice crystal world, the same dream-like, the same cold atmosphere.
Ning Yuan, who was still at the safety entrance of the passage for a short while, faintly felt a slight chill, and it was conceivable how much the temperature in the passage would drop under the accumulation of cold over time.
Ning Yuan, who was bitter at the corners of his mouth, sensed and calculated slightly, and found that if the number of cold ice slabs in his memory was consistent with the arrangement, with his existing internal qi, he could maintain a safe stone platform for resting.
Thinking of this, Ning Yuan no longer hesitated and stepped on the first stone slab.
As soon as he stepped on the stone slab, Ning Yuan's feet were as motionless as if they had taken root, and a slight cold air poured in from the soles of his feet, making his body tremble slightly. Ning Yuan hurriedly used his internal qi to dispel the cold qi, and calculated it with both hands.
While calculating the direction while maintaining the memory of the boundary line, he also had to operate the internal qi, which made Ning Yuan's mental consumption increase all of a sudden. But if he doesn't maintain the state of "sunset", Ning Yuan's boundary line memory will soon blur or even disappear, and if he doesn't take the initiative to calculate the direction, he can't guarantee the accuracy of the boundary line memory, and if he doesn't maintain the internal qi to dispel the cold, Ning Yuan is not sure that he will step on another stone slab in time in just three breaths.
When the three are indispensable, Ning Yuan can only speed up the speed of calculation, compare memory, and then reduce mental energy consumption as much as possible.
After calculating the direction, Ning Yuan immediately stopped the operation of the "Yanyan" talent, and breathed a sigh of relief after comparing the memories and finding that they were consistent, and cold sweat faintly broke out on his forehead.
Ning Yuan, who was quietly sensing the time, tried to lift his feet in the right direction while running his internal qi. Because as soon as the time came, the invisible restraints on Ning Yuan's feet would disappear, so Ning Yuan didn't spend any effort to accurately calculate the time. For him, "walking by the action" may be a better approach.
For a moment, Ning Yuan's footsteps, which had been unable to move, suddenly lifted up and stepped onto another stone slab. Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment, and moved up without any hesitation. Then he was restrained again.
After confirming the feasibility of the method, Ning Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and calculated it again.
The so-called "brain is more and more active", Ning Yuan's thinking ability improved by "Yanyan" is also more flexible and keen. Every time he stepped on a cold stone slab, Ning Yuan could feel the subtle acceleration of his calculation speed, and the mental consumption in calculating the direction became smaller and smaller.
However, the difficulty of the ice passage was not in the calculation of the direction in the first place, but the cold qi that invaded the body all the time during the restraint and the fleeting time of three breaths. Moreover, as time passed, Ning Yuan not only had to face the invasion of the cold air on the ground to his body, but also had to guard against the continuous drop in the overall temperature. By the time Ning Yuan had completed a third of the journey, Ning Yuan's internal qi had been completely overdrawn, and two and a half days had passed.
A total distance of three hundred and sixty paces, two quarters of an hour and one step, without counting other factors, it would take seven and a half days. This has to be said to be a great test of endurance and physical fitness.
Fortunately, every one hundred and twenty steps there is a safe stone platform for the challenger to rest, otherwise it would be completely impossible to complete these three hundred and sixty steps with Ning Yuan's current level of internal qi.
I still have to thank the gifts of my predecessors and the timely awakening of the talent of "Yanyan". Since his arrival, Ning Yuan had counted the exercises he had obtained before the secret realm, and he originally planned to spend two months or even longer cultivating until he was sure before entering the secret realm.
If someone follows closely, they don't care about anything else, die again, and then resurrect and carry the corpse to fill the entry quota of the secret realm.
Oh, bringing corpses into the secret realm is another realm, and online players are a regular operation to grab a place in the secret realm and reduce competition.
The relic types of places of chance on the continent of Neno are divided into three types, treasure land, ruins, and secret realms. A treasure is a public area in the wilderness without any restrictions; Ruins require a ruin key to open, and some have other restrictions, such as cultivation restrictions; The Uncharted Realm is similar to the Ruins, and although it does not require a key, it is strictly limited to a limited number of players or natives who can enter it for a fixed period of time, although there are also other restrictions.
The quota limit for this "Qin" secret realm is two people, and the next time to open the quota is three years later, of course, if the inheritance in the secret realm is inherited, the secret realm will be automatically destroyed, and there will be no so-called next opening. These are all messages that are automatically sent to your mind when you enter the secret realm.
Speaking of using corpses to grab the quota of the secret realm, it is another realm line, and if a player finds a corpse on the line, as long as the death time does not exceed one crown, if it is brought into the secret realm, it will also occupy a place. After the news came out, it was natural for some players to use such a crooked trick.
In terms of the inferior nature of most living beings, it is basically difficult to pick up once the bottom line is broken, and the original crooked tricks have become a routine operation over time.
Therefore, in Ning Yuan's initial calculation, even if there were other Huangsheng Mengjue who chose to directly "wild" to find an opportunity as soon as he did, as long as he was able to cut off the other party's path earlier than the other party. Even if you will get nothing because of it, you will not hesitate to do it.
Ning Yuan, who was enduring the lower and lower temperature in the passage on the safety stone platform, did not hesitate too much to set foot on the back journey again after refilling his internal qi and adjusting the state to the best.
Five days later, Ning Yuan, who was pale and trembling, stepped into the connected flame passage with a tired expression, and then struggled to sit down cross-legged in the safe area of the passage entrance and began to meditate.
