Lu Ran hurriedly asked.

"May I ask my senior, do you have to give up your eyes to become a [Monk of Pain]?"

"Only the incompetent, the one who does not dare to look directly at the pain, will gouge out his eyes!

I am an incompetent one, and although I have been affirmed by the [Hell Monk], I have barely been promoted...... But I will never be able to reach their heights. ”

After the black monk said these helpless words, he walked to the Buddha statue, and a staircase leading to the underground area appeared on its own.

"Follow me."

"Okay."

The lower passage was filled with the smell of blood, shrill shouts, and pinprick pain.

That's right, there was a scream of pain echoing through the air...... Moreover, every time Lu Ran descended a certain distance, some wounds would appear on the surface of his body.

"You should be here for the first time, right? Ever been to a church? ”

"Well, the first time I came to the monastery, I chose the temple for the sake of the flesh...... Didn't think about it and didn't go to church. ”

"Very good...... Here's how to get a qualification.

There are two ways to choose from.

First, the Suffering Test. Endure the seven tortures in the cellar and stay conscious to participate in the promotion.

Second, the strength test. Fighting me head-on as the presiding officer, and once I fall unconscious because I can't bear the pain, it's a defeat. Beat me head-on or hold on for an hour is considered a success. ”

"Dare to challenge the ...... seniors"

In the follow-up [Pain Promotion], there are still more pains to endure, Lu Ran must maintain the stability of his consciousness as much as possible, if he can obtain qualifications by challenging the Pain Monk, it would be the best.

"Good."

The monk smiled wickedly, his tongue embedded in iron nails sliding at the tips of his teeth.

…………

Test site.

The ground is covered with dense iron nails, with an average length of about 15 cm, and there is no place to stay.

Fighting requires taking off your shoes and stepping on spikes.

In fact, compared to the first type of pure pain test, this type of battle form test has a higher mortality rate!

As long as the seeker has lived in the monastery for a while, he will not choose to fight the Monk of Pain.

Swish!

Step on the playing field with spikes running through the soles of your feet, and the tips emerge from the instep......

Lu Ran's face did not change color...... Having crossed a suspension bridge, this penetration of the sole of the foot has been thoroughly adapted.

An appropriate degree of pain can be converted into Lu Ran's left arm strength.

"It must not be easy for a monk to be promoted, so I'll just give it my all!"

It was also when Lu Ran was serious.

Wow!

The tormented monk who set foot in the area stripped off his black robe, his skinny body covered with iron nails......

To be honest, it was really difficult for a monk with such a thin body to connect with a 'flesh cultivator'...... However, Lu Ran could judge the level of this person through blood perception.

And in the process of moving forward, Lu Ran also found that the lack of eyes did not affect the monk's perception and observation at all.

The test begins.

Airplanes!

The monk's seemingly thin body erupted with incredible forward speed...... Just by pointing your toes at the top of the spikes, you can move forward as quickly as a dragonfly in water.

『Inner Punch』

A suffering monk who uses pain as a source of energy and specializes in boxing.

Through breath perception, he locked on to Lu Ran and judged the dodge route with the greatest probability, and blasted out a punch towards Lu Ran's abdomen.

However, when it came to punching, the monk was a little confused.

Because, through his breath, he found that Lu Ran had no intention of hiding at all...... This is very different from the seekers who came to the actual combat assessment in the past.

【Shallow Heart Eye】

The monk who opened his mind a little, realized that something was not quite right, and opened the ability of his mind and eye.

Vaguely seeing Lu Ran's left arm, he actually exuded a breath of [Hell Monk]...... To be reasonable, this kind of aura could not have been possible on a prisoner like Lu Ran who came to the monastery for the first time.

"Impossible...... It should just be the exercises that this kid cultivates, similar to the aura of the monk! ”

…………

Lu Ran was not aware of the psychological dynamics of the monks.

In the face of the monk's fist technique, he really didn't mean to dodge...... Prepare for a head-on encounter with the Afflicted Monk.

Lu Ran, who originally majored in strength, wanted a head-on confrontation.

【Fusion】

As a white suit was worn on Lu Ran's body, the lava chains originating from the depths of the monastery were immediately wrapped around the surface of the suit on his left arm.

Syllable!

A wave of air dispersed.

The left hand catches a punch from the monk in the front.

The fist rushed in, causing the iron chain on Lu Ran's arm to tremble...... Eventually, counteract the punch!

Lu Ran smiled secretly, "My judgment is right, judging from the blood perception, the strength of this monk is probably on the same level as Zhu Gong!" It should be a low-ranking suffering monk in the inner courtyard...... I won't have a problem with the confrontation of forces.'"

At the same time, Lu Ran grabbed the arm of the monk's punch and did not let go.

Zizizizi!

The chainsaw, which had been prepared for a long time, was pulled out by the right arm.

Flesh torn.

The canine chainsaw had some difficulty cutting the iron nails on the monk's body...... But the follow-up cutting was quite powerful, sawing the bones in a short time.

Swish!

With a strong pull, a bloody monk's arm was torn off in its entirety.

In a head-to-head fight, Lu Ran cooperated with the chainsaw with extraordinary strength and gained the upper hand......

The monk quickly recoiled, his face shocked.

Under the observation of his 'shallow heart', iron chains emitting endless heat energy were wrapped around the young man's arm...... These chains shouldn't be here.

"These chains...... There can be no mistake. ”

The monk stopped attacking and didn't care about his injuries.

Get down on your knees and let the spikes on the ground look at your calves and knees.

"Are you Lord [Hell Monk]? Odd...... You don't have a certification coat of arms on your body? ”

"Huh?! Isn't this the power of the average seeker? Lu Ran was stunned.

"No...... This is a high-end ability that only a [Hell Monk] can possess, and even a monk of a higher level than me cannot learn.

These chains are only found in the lava deep in the monastery, and if we touch them, we will be dissipated by the heat, and only a true friar of Hell can withstand the scorching of the chains. ”

"Forehead ......"

Lu Ran had a feeling.

A type of player who has just come out of the Newbie Village. But because of the system bug, I learned the feeling of full-level skills.

"The iron chain that was fused into his left arm was the only power of the Hell Monks...... No wonder it can satisfy the [strange habits] of Mrs. Zun and Mr. Gu.

Could it be that the "Needle" secretly gave me the ability to chain because he saw that I had a good talent at the level of a monk?"

At this moment, there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the underground area.

A group of Afflicted Monks, dressed in black robes and bearing the mark of a monk on their backs, arrived.

Among these monks, there is also a high-ranking monk in a gray robe, with eyes ...... It means that he can look directly at endless pain.

The gray-robed monks are obviously different, with a unique feature - "zipper body"

There are a large number of metal zippers embedded in his skin, which can directly open the flesh through the zipper, and the effect is unknown.

"Young human seekers, please follow us to the inner court...... Mistress Harris wants to see you. ”
