Chapter 12: The Land of Nothingness
"What strength does purple represent, and why is there a full ten times difference between the score and the black brand. Under the ring, someone shouted, and the questions raised were also the questions in the hearts of everyone in the square.
"If you want to get the purple brand, do you have to have the strength of a spirit master? Someone continued.
The old man coughed, stroked his beard and shook his head, "Those who get the purple brand don't necessarily have the strength of a spirit master. β
Zhou Chen was stunned when he heard the old man's words, and glanced at the white wooden card in his hand, he thought, doesn't you have to have the strength to get the black wooden card at the peak of the Spirit Melting Realm?
Not only Zhou Chen, but also Zhao Fei and the others didn't understand, it stands to reason that if you get the purple wood card, you should have the strength of a spirit master, the old man smiled, and his next words told them the answer.
"This purple wooden plaque is specially prepared for the children of the Vientiane Sect, which means that the children of our Vientiane Sect will also participate in this trial. The old man's words were undoubtedly like throwing a bomb into the square, blowing up the heads of everyone present, and they were stunned for a while.
"Of course, not only the disciples of the Vientiane Sect have obtained the purple wooden card, but there are also people who have participated in the trial to get the purple wooden card, and all of these people have the strength of a spirit master, but the number is very small. The old man said.
This trial was not only set up by the Vientiane Sect to recruit new blood, but also opened for the children of the Vientiane Sect, and of course, the most important thing was to let the four courtyards compete.
In the trial, there were even children of the Vientiane Sect who participated, and when they heard this bombshell, the square almost exploded, and almost everyone was talking about it.
"It's worthy of being a big sect, haha! This is interesting, before entering the Vientiane Sect, repair those Vientiane Sect disciples first, it's exciting to think about it. Li Lingyao's eyes lit up.
Li Lingyao's arrogant words suddenly attracted contemptuous glances, if it weren't for Li Lingyao being a beauty, it is estimated that someone would have stood up to ridicule Li Lingyao for not knowing the height of the sky.
Hearing Li Lingyao's words, Zhou Chen's eyes lit up, as if he had discovered a new continent.
Sister Lingyao whispered, and everyone else heard it. Zhao Lin whispered.
"What are you afraid of. Li Lingyao said disdainfully.
Zhou Xingyu on the side thought that he had integrated into the circle of Zhou Chen and the others, so he said: "Lingyao, it's not that I deliberately want to pour cold water on you, if you don't want to be chased and killed by the disciples of the Vientiane Sect, you already burn incense and worship the Buddha, and you dare to think about repairing them." β
Li Lingyao's face turned cold and said, "Am I familiar with you? Don't call it so kindly." β
......
Looking at the square that turned into a vegetable market again, the old man didn't pay attention to it, he continued: "Wait a minute, you will enter the void and start a wooden card competition, where there are no rules, even if it is in groups, or use conspiracy and trickery, no matter what means you use, as long as you can grab the wooden card in the opponent's hand, the score will be in the top 1,000, as long as you can enter the 1,000, you can enter the Vientiane Sect, and if you enter the top 100, we will also have additional rewards." As the old man spoke, the square became much quieter again.
"Of course, in order to allow those who came to participate in the trial and did not enter the Vientiane Sect to come to Bai Lai, for this reason, we have also set up a inheritance in that space, as long as there is an opportunity, you can get the inheritance, and everyone has a chance. The old man looked up at the sky, at this time the sun was already high up, close to noon, he pinched his fingers and calculated, and then said: "It's not early, I won't say more nonsense, I wish you all the best." β
After saying that, the old man turned to look at the four people behind him, they nodded to each other, and at the same time turned to face the ring.
"The Void Land, the Void Gate......" As if chanting, the five people standing on the black pillar clasped their hands together and closed their eyes one after another.
As the eyes of these five people closed, the square, which was originally without wind, suddenly blew a strong wind at this moment, and the sky without dark clouds suddenly thundered, and the sun in the sky was slowly covered by black shadows, the sunlight gradually weakened, and the sky slowly darkened, which was a solar eclipse.
At the moment when the sun was completely covered by this, the eyes of the five people standing on the black pillar opened suddenly, their bodies quickly rose into the air, and their hands swayed rapidly, as if playing Tai Chi.
"Void Gate!" The eyes of the five people showed essence, and their swinging right hands suddenly stopped, and they clicked twice in succession.
At the same time as the right hand of these five people was pointed, those Vientiane Sect disciples sitting in the ring immediately clasped their hands together, as if praying, and chanted words in their mouths.
At this moment, the five black pillars around the ring suddenly bloomed with a strong black light, and at the same time, the totems on the black pillars seemed to be alive.
"If you don't want to become a Taoist, just close your eyes for me immediately. The old man drank suddenly.
After the old man's words fell, Zhou Chen immediately found that the people around him quickly closed their eyes, including Zhao Fei and a few people beside him, after thinking about it, Zhou Chen felt that he seemed to have to make a show, and then he also closed his eyes with the appearance of others.
A few seconds later, Zhou Chen secretly opened his eyes, turned his head, and looked around, the whole square was terrifyingly quiet, and he found that he was the only one left with his eyes open, and even the five people floating in the air had their eyes closed.
At this time, Zhou Chen looked at Li Lingyao who was standing beside him, and saw that Li Lingyao's eyes were closed, and he thought, should he take this opportunity to catch her?
has been staring at Li Lingyao, Zhou Chen found that she was standing still at the moment, she was very quiet, she was very beautiful, with soft short hair, smooth skin, slightly trembling eyelashes, small nose, pink lips, and pointed chin, Zhou Chen could see it, especially Li Lingyao's pink lips, which reminded Zhou Chen of the scene when he kissed Li Lingyao just now, the corners of his mouth were slightly curled, and it felt very comfortable, which was completely a ** mentality.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"
There was a sudden strange sound in the ring, this sound attracted Zhou Chen's attention, his eyes were turning to the ring again, and he found that he didn't know when it started, the black pillar actually rotated slowly, and this strange sound came from the black pillar.
As the black pillar slowly rotated, the totem on the black pillar was slowly separated, turning into gray light and flying towards the center of the ring, above the children of the Vientiane Sect, and then Zhou Chen saw a scene that shocked him, this black light turned into a phantom, the appearance of this phantom was exactly the same as the appearance of the totem on the black pillar, this is simply a copy of the totem, but unlike the totem on the black pillar, the phantom formed in the air is alive, this is a very real person and beast, they will move, they will bow to heaven and earthγ
Looking at this picture, even if Zhou Chen would not be affected by it and become a Dao guide, he also felt a tingling of his scalp, this picture was really weird.
"I want power, I want power. Just as Zhou Chen was looking at the strange picture in mid-air, a crazy roar suddenly sounded in his ears.
He was too familiar with these words, he had also heard them when he was testing the fit of heaven and earth, Zhou Chen felt sorry in his heart, shook his head slightly, it seemed that there were still people who couldn't help it, opened their eyes, and saw the picture above the ring, couldn't resist the temptation, and turned into a Taoist guide.
Hearing this voice, it undoubtedly made the people in the square with their eyes closed, their hearts vibrate, and there was an urge to find out, power is something that everyone wants to have, especially the kind of power that is not earned for nothing, it is even more unstoppable.
"Do you want power, do you want power?"
"Kneel, kneel, kneel, and I will give you great strength. β
"Kneel, I can fulfill your various wishes, kneel!"
At this moment, above the square, suddenly there was an ethereal sound, the sound was small, but it reached everyone's ears, this voice surrounded the square, enduring, it was like a magic sound, tempting the people in the square.
"No matter what you hear, don't open your eyes, those are all fake, there is no power in the world that is not earned for nothing, once you open your eyes, you will become a Taoist, and when the time comes, even if the power is strong, you are no longer you, you will become a thoughtless Taoist. The white-haired old man floating in the air noticed that something was faintly wrong, and he didn't open his eyes, he roared loudly, and his voice shook the sky.
Listening to the voice of the child who became a Taoist, he was very anxious, he wanted to open his eyes, he wanted to save the child, just to open the door to the void, his body was imprisoned by an invisible force, so that he could not move, so that he could not save the child, he could only stand there and listen to the sound in a hurry.
Suddenly, the old man felt a coldness, which came from the ground.
"Don't open your eyes, you know?" roared the old man again. There was a hint of pleading in his voice, and he didn't want to hear someone turn into a Taoist.
It's just that the old man's words, not long after they fell, the kind of fanatical voice sounded again, but not one, but several, and the voices came from different directions.
Listening to the fluctuating frenzy, the old man sighed, it seems that this year is unavoidable! Every time he opens the Void Land, he will encounter this situation, even if he is useless no matter how he asks him, every time someone opens his eyes, and then he is affected by the totem, thus becoming a Dao Guide, he can't understand why every time the sect opens the Void Land, it has to gather the people who participate in the trial, can't it be opened first and then gather these children who participate in the trial?
The old man felt a coldness, he didn't open his eyes, so he didn't know what was happening in the square at the moment, but Zhou Chen, who opened his eyes, could see it clearly, and he also felt a cold breath rising from the ground, as Zhou Chen felt this cold breath, he found that a black smoke-like gas rose on the ground, seeing this black gas, Zhou Chen's pupils shrank, and at the same moment, the gray beads in his body actually reacted, he clearly felt the gray beads in his body, there was an urgent desire, it wanted to absorb this black gas, that kind of desire made Zhou Chen's heart tremble, what is this gasZhou Chen was puzzled in his heart, it could actually tempt the gray beads in his body.
"Hey, that fanatical voice is gone. Just when Zhou Chen lowered his head and looked at the black gas floating from the ground, he suddenly realized that the crazy sound that had been surrounding his ears suddenly disappeared, and the square became extremely quiet.
Zhou Chen was stunned, then he raised his head suddenly, and his eyes immediately saw that on the ground not far from him, a black hole had cracked, and standing above the black hole, a young man who had become a Dao guide was swept into the ground and disappeared by a sudden gray light.
Zhou Chen's face changed slightly, he quickly ran over, and when he arrived, the black hole had already closed. Zhou Chen stepped on the ground and muttered, "What the hell is going on." β
At this moment, the figure of Dead Mei'er suddenly appeared, and she said: "This is the breath of the little brother of nothingness, how can he be here." β
"It's the breath of the devil. Also coming out was Yi Xuerou, who glanced at the dead Mei'er, and she said with a solemn face. "I didn't expect a demon to be suppressed here. β
"Old woman, who are you! Why are you also in Xiao Chen's body. Looking at Yi Xuerou who appeared with her, she was stunned for a moment, and then pointed and asked.
Yi Xuerou didn't care about the tone of the dead Mei'er, she asked rhetorically, "What about you." How could you be in my apprentice's body. β
Just when Yu Mei'er appeared, she set up a barrier around her, so the sound of Zhou Chen's speech could not be heard by people outside.
"Xiao Chen is my master, so I naturally want to follow him. Dead Mei'er said with a look of course.
Yi Xuerou pursed her lips and said, "It turned out to be the instrument spirit of the Heavenly Source Instrument on my apprentice's body, who else should I be?"
"The old woman is worthy of being my master's master with the way you look now?"
Looking at the two people who didn't look at each other as soon as they met, Zhou Chen held his forehead and sighed helplessly.
"Xiao Chen, what she said is false, right? Dead Mei'er looked at Zhou Chen and asked.
"She is my master. Zhou Chen said with a smile, looking at the depressed look on her face, Zhou Chen's mood suddenly improved.
Suddenly, the dead Mei'er, who still wanted to say something, obediently closed her mouth and secretly glanced at Zhou Chen, and suddenly appeared in her mind that at that time in Tianyun Mountain, the origin of heaven and earth in her body was forcibly absorbed by Zhou Chen, and now she still has some lingering palpitations when she thinks about it.
"You just meant that it wasn't the Void Monument. Eva asked.
"It's a monument of nothingness. Dead Meier said. Although she didn't want to answer Yi Xuerou's words, because of Yi Xuerou's identity, she could only answer truthfully.
Just as Yi Xuerou and Dead Mei'er were talking, Zhou Chen's eyes once again turned to the ring in the center of the square.
At this moment, there is a change taking place, the five pillars standing around the ring slowly rose into the air, the five pillars collided violently together, making a loud noise, the pillars overlapped one after another, and finally formed a five-pointed star, the moment the five-pointed star was formed, the black pillar suddenly burst into golden light, and the golden light continued to flicker out from the pillar, dazzling to the extreme, with the flickering of the golden light, the black pillar slowly melted into the void and disappeared, Instead, there was a glittering pentagram of stars, and the ring was completely covered by the pentagram, bathed in golden light.
The golden light sprinkled down, the five-pointed star array slowly rotated, with the rotation of the five-pointed star array, a golden gate at the entrance of the stairs of the ring, slowly formed, first the door frame, and then the gate, this gate is very large, ten meters high, more than five meters wide. Looking at the golden gate, Zhou Chen showed a shocked look on his face.
"The Void Gate to the Void is open!"
