Chapter 687: Barren Mountain Flying Eagle, Dense Forest Ape Shadow
The first layer of the Tower of Trials, really speaking, is really not very difficult, even those low-level challengers who have even reached level ten, as long as they are careful enough, they also have a good chance to pass guò. In the final analysis, the main test of this layer is just the basics.
But at the beginning, the tragic scene on the bridge really left a deep impression on the challengers behind, so the speed of crossing the bridge was much slower all of a sudden, although in the end, almost half of the challengers passed the first layer of the test, but the time to cross the bridge was also extended a lot.
The first part of the challengers to cross the bridge are basically people with good strength, and the trial of the first layer is actually not too difficult for them. Some of them were in a hurry and rushed directly to the second floor as fast as they could, while some of them were cautious by nature and stayed at the exit of the first floor to rest for the time being. After all, when crossing the bridge before, there were many challengers, more or less, who inevitably suffered some injuries, although most of these injuries were not strict, but this part of the cautious challengers still preferred to maintain a good condition to continue the next level of challenges.
The Purple Blade is not among them, with his strength, the first-layer rope bridge swordfish basically does not pose much of a threat to him, let alone let him be injured. And in the whole process of crossing the bridge, the purple blade has always been at ease, and it can be said that there is almost no consumption. And he had already participated in the "internal test" before, so the purple blade was already quite familiar with this tower of trials, of course, it was only limited to the first three layers, and as for the fourth layer, because the purple blade had not lasted long. So just have a general impression, but it's hard to get a glimpse of the whole leopard.
But even so, compared to the other challengers who entered the Tower of Trials for the first time, Purple Blade could be said to have a considerable advantage. What's more, in the mind of the purple blade. The first two layers of the Tower of Trials were not too difficult in the first place, and what was really worth challenging him seriously was to start from the third layer, as for the fourth layer that made him return last time, even now, Purple Blade still didn't have much confidence in his heart.
"It's not bad, but it's a pity, I still haven't really understood it......" Yun Feng's divine sense attached to the purple blade's body. I couldn't help but sigh secretly, when I was on the first layer, the appearance of the purple blade was indeed quite outstanding, but Yun Feng knew better than anyone else in his heart that he was actually just abandoning his roots, and he didn't understand the original purpose of the Tower of Trials at all.
However, Yun Feng didn't take the initiative to remind him, anyway, his purpose. It's just a close observation, and Yun Feng is really curious. This little guy, with his current strength, which layer can he break through? Yun Feng estimates that the first three layers should be difficult for him, and if there is an extraordinary performance, the fourth layer will also have a chance to pass guò. But if no miracle happens, then the fifth layer will be an absolutely insurmountable difficulty for him!
"It's really a pity, the sixteenth-level Dou Qi cultivation, if the swordsmanship realm can also keep up, then even if it is a complete breakthrough in the Nine-Layer Trial Tower. Maybe it's all possible, but this kid is obviously far from it. "In fact, this Tower of Trials built by Yun Feng is mainly a test of the challenger's swordsmanship level, as for the realm of fighting spirit and magic power, there are actually not too many hard requirements, otherwise, those low-level swordsmen who have not even reached the tenth level will not be allowed to enter.
In fact, if it were Yun Feng, even if it was only a tenth-level incarnation, it would be able to smoothly open up the entire Tower of Trials, but for the vast majority of challengers, the difficulty of this Tower of Trials was actually even greater than they imagined! Because in this world, although the Dou Qi and Magic Power system had already been very perfect, it was obviously a little backward in the development of various combat skills.
It is precisely because of this that Yun Feng will be bent on developing his own swordsmanship system, just think about it, the martial arts system of his original world, coupled with the fighting spirit system and magic system of this world, Yun Feng is really looking forward to what kind of excitement can be intersected between the two.
Purple Blade didn't know that Yun Feng's divine sense had already given him an epilogue, following the rope bridge swordfish on the first layer, Purple Blade almost didn't delay too long, and easily passed through the second layer. However, this time, Purple Blade did not immediately enter the third layer, but stopped for the first time to rest. Purple Blade, who has already experienced an internal test, knows better than others that the next third layer is the beginning that is really worth paying attention to!
The other challengers were not as easy as the Purple Blade, and even a few high-level swordsmen who were almost the same as the Purple Blade, or even more powerful, did not rush to enter the next layer after passing the second layer safely. Compared to the first layer, the difficulty of the second layer has actually increased a lot, but for a high-level powerhouse of the level of Purple Blade, this increase in Cheng dù is still not enough to pose a threat to them. But the next third layer, I'm afraid it's completely different, high-level swordsmen with a slightly worse foundation may not even be able to pass guò!
The content of the trial on the second layer is actually similar to the trial on the first layer, which is similar in nature, the first layer is the rope bridge swordfish, and the second layer is the barren mountain flying eagle. Challengers must climb from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain to find a way to the third level. However, during the process of climbing, a large number of goshawks hovering in mid-air will attack the trialists from time to time.
Compared to the swordfish of the first layer, the goshawks of the second layer are obviously more difficult, although they are also low-level magical beasts, but compared to the swordfish of the first layer, these goshawks are obviously more spiritual, although the frequency of attacks is not as high as the first layer, but the danger is obviously better!
Many trialists who finally managed to pass the first layer of guò couldn't help but complain, especially those low-level swordsmen who were up and down the tenth level, and the rope bridge swordfish that were able to pass through the first layer of guò was already quite reluctant, and now when they encountered the more difficult barren mountain flying eagle, the situation immediately became precarious.
Some trialists, perhaps part-time as thieves, or simply thieves, try to stealthily climb to the top of the mountain, but alas, this behavior. It was obviously against Yun Feng's original intention, and of course it was impossible to succeed. Those goshawks in mid-air are not ordinary goshawks, they are all genuine demonic beasts! Although they are only the lowest-level demonic beasts, they are still fundamentally different from ordinary beasts.
For example, these goshawks on the second floor. Their eagle eye talent, with the blessing of the divine power of the Tower of Trials, in this special environment, they can almost see through the invisibility of a qiē, whether it is the stealth of the guide or the stealth of the mage, all of them cannot escape their eagle eyes. Therefore, in the second layer of trials, if you can't cope with the attacks of these goshawks. It is almost impossible to make it to the top of the mountain.
Compared to the first layer, almost half of the trialists successfully cleared the level, and the challengers who were really able to climb to the top of the mountain and pass the second layer of the trial were suddenly reduced by half. Originally, there were tens of thousands of trial teams, and there were even less than 3,000 people who could really enter the third layer.
However, although the difficulty of the second layer has increased a lot, the rewards after clearing the customs are also much richer. Prizes for the first tier. It's just the lowest-level enchanted sword, and the reward for clearing the second tier. Although it is also enchanted equipment, the quality is obviously much higher.
For most adventurers, this level of enchanted equipment is already quite attractive, but for Purple Blade, it still can't enter his eyes. Don't say that the Purple Blade was originally born in a big family, even if it is an ordinary grassroots powerhouse, as long as he can break through the fifteenth-level mark and become a high-level professional, unless it is real magic equipment. Otherwise, ordinary enchanted equipment will basically not be taken into account by them.
Purple Blade is very clear that the reward of the third layer of Tongguò is the real magic equipment - although it is only the lowest level of magic equipment, but compared to those enchanted ordinary equipment, it is definitely two completely different concepts! In fact, it is true, enchanted equipment, although it also has a certain magic effect, but in essence, it is still just an ordinary weapon, and the additional magic effect often has a lot of restrictions, but the real magic equipment is completely different, itself is made of precious magic materials, not only the value is very different, in terms of practicality, there is also a huge gap!
However, in terms of Purple Blade's family background, ordinary low-level magic equipment is still not enough to make him excited, and the sword he commonly uses now is a high-level magic weapon. Purple Blade is quite curious about the rewards of the fourth layer, but it's a pity that it was the last time it was time for the internal test, and he didn't know how to do it, so naturally he didn't know.
But the reason why Purple Blade entered the Tower of Trials for the second time was not simply for the reward, he just wanted to know how many layers his strength could pass through in this Tower of Trials. Prior to this, Purple Blade had always been quite confident in his strength, but after the previous internal test, to be honest, Purple Blade really suffered a big blow, and the dignified high-level swordsman actually couldn't even pass the fourth layer, which really made him feel a little unacceptable.
Entering the Tower of Trials for the second time, the Purple Blade is full of strength, and it must surpass the results of the last time. After resting for a while, and when the spirit and spirit were fully recovered, the purple blade finally stepped into the third layer. This time, the scene changed from a barren mountain to a dense forest, but in essence, the content of the test is still the same.
At the beginning, most of the other trialists didn't know what was going on, but they saw a white shadow suddenly flash in the forest, and they couldn't catch it off guard, and soon someone was injured. However, with the lessons of the first two layers, this time from the beginning, no one was negligent in the slightest, so in the face of the first wave of attacks, there were many injured, but there were basically not many who were really hit by the key point and lost their lives directly. Even a few of those who were seriously injured had every chance to use the amulet of the Sword God Temple to leave. Although the trial is over, at least his life can be saved.
Purple Blade is one of the few people who is not injured, if it is the first time to enter this place, maybe he is injured by now, but Purple Blade, who has learned a lesson, is of course unlikely to repeat the mistakes of the past. The purple blade knew very well that the white shadows that flashed just now were actually white apes, but their movements were too fast, and they were extremely agile, and after a blow, whether they hit or not, they would immediately retreat, so many people were stunned after being attacked, and they didn't see the attacker's appearance clearly.
The dense forest is secluded and the terrain is complex, which is very suitable for concealment, and these white apes are very suitable for the terrain here. Obviously, they are very familiar, and it is definitely them who will suffer from dealing with them in this dense forest. Purple Blade is naturally very clear about this, but fortunately, in this dense forest, the number of white ape groups has a certain limit after all. At least the frequency of their attacks was obviously one level lower than that of the barren mountain flying eagles in the second layer, but in the same way, the danger of these white apes was significantly higher than that of the goshawks in the second layer.
The swordfish in the first layer and the goshawk in the second layer, although they both possess a certain spirituality. Far beyond ordinary similarities, but after all, they are only low-level magical beasts, but these white apes are different, although as intermediate-level magical beasts, they don't seem to be much stronger than swordfish and goshawks, but in terms of wisdom, there is undoubtedly a world of difference!
Apes are quite intelligent beasts. This is especially true of these white apes. In terms of innate abilities, these white apes. It is not necessarily stronger than other intermediate Warcraft, it is basically equivalent to the thirteenth or fourth level of human powerhouses, but the wisdom they possess is already quite close to that of humans, compared to other intermediate Warcraft, which makes them have a stronger learning ability!
Trialists in the Jungle. I soon saw how difficult these white apes really were. It's obviously just a group of demonic beasts, but these white apes actually have long swords in their hands one by one, and when they attack. This kind of scene really greatly subverted the common sense of the trialists, and the first reaction in the hearts of many trialists, after seeing the true appearance of the attackers, was disbelief!
It is indeed unbelievable that a group of demonic beasts can actually use swords like humans, such a fact is indeed full of subversiveness, and it is no wonder that many trialists find it difficult to accept. Some trialists even thought that what they were facing now was a group of orcs from the northern wasteland, but this was obviously impossible, Warcraft was Warcraft, orcs were orcs, strictly speaking, the two were not the same thing at all, and there was an essential difference between Warcraft and Orcs.
But now these white apes they have encountered are as difficult as orcs! They also have a lot of intelligence, they can also use weapons, and these white apes can even use swordsmanship--what kind of demonic beasts will actually use swordsmanship to attack? You know, even most ordinary orcs will only use brute force to carry out simple direct attacks.
The attacks of these white apes did make the trialists in the dense forest confused for a while, but fortunately, these white apes didn't seem to have much killing intent, although their attacks were very powerful, but they rarely directly killed people, and once they were injured, they would basically quickly withdraw from the battlefield, and the trialists who injured it, the next attacks from other white apes, would also be reduced.
In other words, as long as a certain number of white apes are injured, it is basically easy to pass through the dense forest, but if the white ape is killed directly, then the trialist will face a large number of white apes who are in a state of anger.
For these situations, the purple blade is naturally psychologically numerous, with his current sixteenth-level fighting qi cultivation, if it is to deal with a white ape alone, there is basically no big problem, if it is really ruthless, it is not impossible to kill it on the spot, but even if it can be done, the purple blade itself, it will also have to pay a lot of price, although these white apes are only intermediate demonic beasts, but their swordsmanship level is definitely not weak!
In particular, the swordsmanship of these white apes can be said to be very different from what they have learned, and Purple Blade even suspects that this is simply another kind of swordsmanship system! But even this is enough to make most trialists feel extremely headaches.
Even the purple blade, who had already experienced it once, did not dare to be careless in the slightest when facing these white apes. Although his true strength is better than these white apes, the opponent's tactics of missing a blow and fleeing thousands of miles also did not leave him too many opportunities. It has been nearly an hour since he entered the dense forest, and the purple blade has only injured the three white apes, and he himself has also been injured, although it is not strict, but if it cannot be dealt with in time, I am afraid it will still have some adverse effects on the next trial.
According to the experience of the last internal test, Purple Blade knew that as long as he injured two more white apes, he should be able to pass through this dense forest, otherwise, in the next journey, he would have to maintain a high degree of vigilance all the time, but in this way, it would inevitably make his spirit quite tired, so in comparison, Purple Blade is still more willing to fight quickly.
Just as Purple Blade began to take the initiative to search for the traces of the white ape, in the depths of the dense forest, he unexpectedly discovered a scene that shocked him. (To be continued......)
