"Boy, go and see, what's going on?"
Steward Ma gave the order unceremoniously. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ling Xiaoye walked back a little reluctantly, not that he was obeying the horse stewardship, but that he wanted to know what was going on. It's just that the statement of the horse steward makes him feel uncomfortable.
Before Ling reached the big stone gate that fell at some point and where, there was another loud noise:
Phew!
This time, however, it came from the front, and a large stone gate had fallen, blocking their way.
"Bad luck, the road ahead is blocked, and the way back is gone. ”
Steward Ma said to himself, obviously very dissatisfied, he is the manager of Wanli Commercial Bank in Da'an City, and he is used to being powerful, but now he has become a white rat in someone else's cage, so he is naturally not used to it.
Ling Xiaoye approached the big stone gate and pushed hard, but the stone gate did not move at all. I tried again, and I tried my best, but I still couldn't shake half a point.
"What kind of trial is this? Stone-pushing competition?" Influenced by the horse steward, Ling Xiaoye also said to himself.
While the two were still complaining, the stones on both sides began to move, making a strange noise. Immediately afterwards, all kinds of breaths began to rush out, like a river that had burst its embankment, out of control.
"Oops, it turned out to trap us, and then release strange things to attack us!" Steward Ma casually cast a few spells, hitting a few black shadows that rushed over, and then ordered Ling Xiaoye: "Boy, quickly protect my back to prevent the sneak attack of strange things!"
Steward Ma is the highest cultivation of the two, and he is also used to giving orders, and he only realizes his own importance. To him, Ling Xiaoye was just a subordinate and something like that, to be sacrificed.
Ling Xiaoye saw through Steward Ma's intentions, but he didn't refuse, because he sensed that the strength of these strange things was not bad, and some even exceeded his level, so the existence of Steward Ma was still necessary.
It's just that he originally had to exert ten efforts to protect the back of the horse steward, Ling Xiaoye only used seven points of strength, he didn't want to have a horse steward who could get out of the way, and the horse steward who was a little injured was a "teammate" who didn't pose much threat to him.
These strange things should be a hybrid of monsters and beasts, not much of the demonic energy, but full of bloodthirsty, seeing people is like seeing a hungry wild dog with bones, desperate to rush forward.
The two of them had to use all their strength to keep repelling the attacks of these monsters.
For Ling Xiaoye, at this time, there was a powerful helper next to him to attract the attention of the monster, and he was helping to repel the monster that attacked the back of the horse steward, which was obviously much easier, so he couldn't help but have an idea: Since it is a trial, then correct your attitude and improve yourself in the trial!
A smile suddenly appeared on Ling Xiaoye's face, if he was seen by the horse steward behind him, he might just slash it with one palm.
So he first performed the Storm Sword Technique, constantly practicing his moves, and while retreating from the enemy, he looked for a feeling.
These monsters continued to attack the two pillars of incense for a long time before they began to slowly retreat, and finally left the wreckage behind. The rest of the monsters disappeared into the walls on either side, and the passage began to fall silent.
The large stone gate in front of them suddenly rose slowly, which meant that the two of them had to enter the next stone gate.
"This damn trial, this damn passage......" Steward Ma began to scold, the time of the two pillars of incense, no more, no less, will not consume too much of his mana, but he feels very aggrieved, he has a body of cultivation, but he feels powerless.
Ling Xiaoye was secretly happy, it was rare to have such an opportunity, and he could improve his strength and protect himself to the greatest extent.
After the two of them walked past the stone gate that had just risen, there was a bang, and the stone gate fell down again. However, this time, the stone gate in front of them did not fall immediately, and it should have given these two people some chance to rest.
Ling Xiaoye didn't say a word, he sat directly on the ground, breathing and breathing. Fortunately, the aura here is quite sufficient and can be restored. Seeing that Ling Xiaoye was meditating, Steward Ma also sat up a little reluctantly, after all, he had nothing else to do.
After about half an hour, a big stone gate in front of him fell, and as a result, new monsters appeared, these monsters were similar to those encountered before, Ling Xiaoye observed carefully this time, only to find that these monsters looked like bats that were more than ten times larger, with hideous faces and a mouthful of teeth.
The two had to fight back-to-back against these bat-like monsters.
This time, Ling Xiaoye still used his sword technique, and even the sixth form of the frightening wind sword technique, if there is no style, can barely work. It's just that he was loudly questioned by the horse steward: "What kind of slippery head are you kidding, you actually let a monster bite me!"
However, the horse steward was busy dealing with the monsters, and he could only scold.
Ling Xiaoye smiled and continued to practice his swordsmanship.
Stone doors fell one after another, monsters attacked again and again, resting and meditating again and again, Ling Xiaoye and Ma Steward began to become numb to these repeated trials and things, as if they were routine, they started to fight when they arrived, and they rested when they arrived.
For the horse steward, this is a kind of torture, because these monsters do not help him much, on the contrary, they consume more of his mana, physical strength and mental energy, making him very tired.
However, for Ling Xiaoye, there are all kinds of fun: the swordsmanship has begun to be practiced to the point of Zhongcheng, and the six styles of the Storm have been able to be skillfully displayed; the basic boxing method has reached the level of Dacheng, after all, it is a basic martial art, and he has a deeper understanding of this set of boxing techniques after these days of continuous performance; and the footwork has also begun to touch the edge of Dacheng, but this is all practiced in the case of dodging, for which he is often scolded by the horse steward.
It's a pity that this passage can't cast a magic circle, otherwise Ling's magic circle level should be able to improve one level. And those demon exercises related to their own demon bloodline did not dare to show them in front of the horse steward, so they did not make much progress.
For these gains, Ling Xiaoye still felt insufficient, after all, his biggest reliance was not cultivated. But the progress was still very obvious, as the strength of the trial monster increased, Ling Xiaoye did not feel struggling, but felt more and more relaxed.
"Laugh, you're still fighting and laughing, you stinky boy, you don't give me a single spirit stone, and you still have a face to laugh here!"
Steward Ma turned around and glanced at it, and found that Ling Xiaoye was actually laughing during the battle, and couldn't help but shout. For a person like him, who came from a business house, profit is the most important thing.
Ling Xiaoye did not make any response to the horse steward, but continued to fight. However, he put away his smile and threw himself into the battle more seriously.
The two of them didn't have the heart to count how many battles they had gone through, how many stone gates they had passed, in short, about a month had passed.
Fortunately, Ling Xiaoye's Qiankun bag had a lot of dry food and water, so he didn't go hungry during this time, and because of his relatively high cultivation, Steward Ma carried a little Bigu Pill with him, except for asking Ling Xiaoye for water twice, he could barely cope with it.
Although this horse steward is old and experienced in the rivers and lakes, he has cultivated to the late stage of the wheel of life, and he is really impatient with this repeated trial of fighting monsters, as long as he is free, he begins to scold and scold, scold these monsters, scold this damn passage, and scold Ling Xiaoye.
As a result, Ling Xiaoye didn't learn too many strengths from Steward Ma, but instead learned Steward Ma's serious nonsense, and sometimes quarreled with Steward Ma, but fortunately, he just quarreled, not fight.
After all, in this passage, a person facing ruthless and endless trials will drive life crazy, and he still needs someone to accompany him, talk, even if it is a quarrel and a fight.
Although Steward Ma has prejudices against Ling Xiaoye, but in the current situation, it is still a small life for Ling Xiaoye, and it is not too late to go out and ask for Ling's small life, not to mention that now that his cultivation has been suppressed, his strength has not been played at the level it should be.
Ling Xiaoye knew from beginning to end that Steward Ma had murderous intent towards him, but he hid it deep in his heart, and he didn't show any fear. Now this month's trial, he actually let his soul sea have signs of advancement - starting from red to turning orange.
This kind of small realm changes within the big realm, such as one to two, do not have too many external signs to be revealed, and only the changes in oneself can be perceived.
Ling Xiaoye smiled in the battle, in fact, it was his soul sea advancement, he was still a little young, he didn't know how to hide it, and he didn't know how to face it calmly. Of course, Steward Ma didn't investigate further, and repeatedly fighting monsters had already made Steward Ma a little impatient, and he just wanted to stay away from this ghost place, where to care about what happened to Ling Xiaoye, it's better to die, if you don't die, go out and kill again!
The farther you go to the back, the monster gets stronger and stronger. Steward Ma is still the first target of the monster, who told him to cultivate so high. Ling Xiaoye was still behind the Ma Steward Palace, helping him deal with the monsters in the rear.
Another month passed, and Ling Xiaoye's swordsmanship, fisting, and body skills were not only mastered, but even the technique of raising his hand to shoot the small flying knife was extremely skillful. What made him even happier was that the soul sea had changed two colors in a row, and with the previous advancement, he had changed from the first level of the soul sea to the fourth level of the soul sea.
This time, Ling Xiaoye learned to be smart, and used the small breathing spell he had learned with Agula before to adjust his aura and spiritual power to the appearance of a soul sea. He didn't laugh anymore, after all, there was a powerhouse in the late stage of the Destiny Wheel Realm by his side, who might kill him.
If you expose your advanced situation at this time, it is very likely that it will make the killing intent of the horse steward stronger and more unfavorable to yourself.
Just as Ling Xiaoye was meditating and thinking, he suddenly heard a continuous sound, rattling, and he cast his divine thoughts, sensing what had changed.
"All the stone doors are put away!"
Steward Ma said excitedly: "It seems that after passing the trial, you can leave this place." ”
The rattling stopped, but the old voice suddenly appeared: "This is just the beginning!"
