Chapter 11: The Final Test
"All of you have passed the test, Tan Li, Zhang Qian, Fang Qinghan, Duan Xingu, Hong Yaori, Lu Hao, you come with me. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" the three-element elder finally declared.
Afterwards, Elder Sanyuan led the six of them alone to the fourth and final attic of the Entrance Pavilion.
The last attic space is narrower than the next three floors, only more than 100 square meters, and there is a small house in the middle of the attic, but the door is closed, and I don't know what is inside.
"You have all passed all the tests of the three dangers, and according to the regulations, you can get 20 Qi Pills, which is your reward. "There were six extra bags out of thin air in Elder Sanyuan's hand, and each small bag contained 20 Qi Transformation Pills, which happened to be one bag per person.
"The next step is to decide the first place, which is also the final test, this test is actually very simple, that is, you enter that room together, whoever can hold on the longest will be the first place! ā
"However, I have to say it again at the end, once you enter, you will bear all the consequences, the test of this last level is very difficult, the test is not your swordsmanship and combat effectiveness, but your will, if you are a person with a weak will, if you enter it, you will be mentally frustrated, and you may become an idiot at worst, so your final choice is to continue or give up?" Elder Sanyuan finally asked.
"Last time, Lao Tzu was almost the first, this time it is definitely my first!" Hong Yaori said domineeringly, he participated in the test of the Three Dangers three months ago, but unfortunately lost to Fang Qinghan's brother Fang Qingyun.
"Hmph, last time the first was my family alliance, and this time the first will still be my family alliance!" Fang Qing said coldly.
"The two of you are too confident, the feng shui turns to rest, I think this time it will be me Duan Xingu!" Duan Xingu said with a smile.
The other two Tan Li and Zhang Qian also expressed their intention to continue the test, and Lu Hao nodded lightly.
"Okay, then let's get started!" A hint of appreciation flashed in the eyes of the Sanyuan Elder, the swordsman should be fearless.
The door opened, and Lu Hao and the other six entered the room.
The room was empty, with no furniture at all, only pale blue walls and roof.
Just when Lu Hao was puzzled, a soft light attracted his attention, not only him, but also the eyes of the other five people were also attracted by that faint light.
That's a painting!
A painting hanging on the wall, the only thing in the room.
The painting is of an old man, his face is a little thin, with a long beard and green hair, but his expression is bright, especially the pair of eyes, full of powerful life, he is wearing a blue robe, fluttering in the wind, quite a feeling of fairy wind bones.
Everyone's eyes were attracted to this painting, not that this painting was the only thing in the room, but as if there was a strange magic that attracted everyone's eyes, and they couldn't help but stare at the painting and admire it.
Suddenly, a strange feeling flashed in everyone's hearts!
......
Outside.
After seeing that all the six registered disciples had entered the room, Elder Sanyuan suddenly had an extra incense burner and eight sandalwood sticks in his hand, inserted the sandalwood into the incense burner in turn, lit one of them, and then placed the incense burner on the ground.
"A total of 6 people have passed all three levels this time, the best one in the past three years, could it be that someone can pass this final test this time?" Elder Sanyuan muttered to himself.
"What am I thinking? In the more than three hundred years since the opening of the Nanling Sword Sect, there have only been seven people in total who have passed this final test, and all seven of them are the top and most outstanding disciples of the Nanling Sword Sect in the end, but now although these six disciples are also relatively good, they are still far from the top, especially one of them is still very poor in cultivation talent, and I don't know how he passed the third level. Immediately, the Sanyuan Elder shook his head again, directly denying his thoughts.
The three dangers of this entrance pavilion are not as simple as they seem on the surface, but in fact, this last level is the real test.
More than 300 years ago, when Tiannan Jianzun, the ancestor of the Nanling Sword Sect, passed through the Youlan Mountain, he found that the aura here was abundant and the scenery was beautiful, and he couldn't help but be attracted by this place, so he opened a sect here.
At the time of the opening ceremony, the master of Tiannan Sword Venerable, that is, the ancestor of the Nanling Sword Sect, specially gave a thing, which contained a residual thought of the master of Tiannan Sword Venerable, if anyone can pass the test of this residual thought, he can get the inheritance and guidance of the ancestor of the Nanling Sword Sect.
However, the inheritance and guidance of this ancestor is not a profound martial arts technique, but a relatively basic mental method, which is only effective for beginners, and the intention of the ancestor is also very simple, that is, to select potential disciples for the Nanling Sword School.
Although it is the inheritance of the basic mental method, if you can really obtain and cultivate it, it will be smoother on the road in the future.
And the thing that the ancestor handed down is that painting.
Tiannan Jianzun regarded this painting as a treasure, established the entrance pavilion, offered it, and let all the beginner disciples put it to the test.
Over the past 300 years, only seven people have passed this test!
In the end, these seven people either became the heads of the Nanling Sword Sect, or they were the backbone core elders of the Sword Sect, or even the Taishang Elders!
However, this secret information is only known to the most core figures of the Nanling Sword Sect, and Elder Sanyuan is one of them.
Just as Elder Sanyuan's thoughts were flying, a piece of sandalwood was almost burned out.
One stick of sandalwood is equivalent to almost half a quarter of an hour, and eight sticks of sandalwood are equivalent to half an hour, that is, an hour.
Burst!
At this moment, the door of the room suddenly opened without wind, and a figure ejected from inside, spitting blood.
It was Tan Li among the six disciples, Elder Sanyuan sighed, took out an elixir from his arms, and stuffed it into Elastic Li's mouth.
The first one failed!
The first sandalwood burned and the second sandalwood was lit, but when it was only half a section of burning, another figure shot out of the house, spitting out three mouthfuls of blood, this person was Zhang Qian.
The second one also failed!
Elder Sanyuan stepped forward again to help.
The second stick of sandalwood continued to burn until the end and no one was ejected, and the third stalk of sandalwood started to burn, but no one was ejected until the end.
It seems that the remaining four are relatively strong and hold out for a long time.
When the fourth sandalwood burned to one-third, another person was finally ejected, it was Fang Qinghan, but he didn't vomit blood, but his breath was very disordered, I saw him pounding the ground with his hand in annoyance, very angry, this is because he found that he was the third to be ejected, which means that he won the fourth place.
The fourth stick of sandalwood continued to burn until it was over, and no one was ejected.
As soon as the fifth sandalwood began to burn for a while, one person was ejected, it was Duan Xingu, and he did not vomit blood, but was very frustrated, because he found that he was the fourth to be ejected.
The fifth sandalwood burned over, no one was ejected, and now in the room, only Hong Yaori and Lu Hao were left.
It was unbelievable that Hong Yaori could hold on for such a long time, but it was incomprehensible that Lu Hao could hold on for so long, and even the Sanyuan Elder was very curious and surprised.
When the sixth sandalwood burned to two-thirds, one person was ejected, and when everyone thought it was Lu Hao, they were surprised to find that it was Hong Yaori who was ejected!
After Hong Yaori was ejected, he was happy at first, because he knew that he had lasted almost half a stick of incense longer than the last test, but when he glanced at everyone, he found that there were only four people, that is, in addition to him, there were still people in that room, which made him shocked, and when he saw the faces of the four people clearly, he was even more surprised, because it was Lu Hao in that room.
"Elder Sanyuan, is it possible that the person who is being tested can't stand the test and has an accident in the room?" Hong Yaori asked without giving up, in his heart Lu Hao was definitely inferior to him, he knew very well how difficult the test in that room was.
"It's not that this possibility is not impossible, there have been disciples who have entered before, and those who fainted directly will not be ejected. Elder Sanyuan thought about it seriously and said.
"Then let's go in and take a look, I guess that kid must have fainted inside, otherwise it wouldn't have been out for so long. Hearing this, Hong Yaori was immediately overjoyed, and felt that it must be so.
Several other people also took it for granted, after all, Lu Hao's cultivation was too poor, and he was really not powerful.
"Not now, according to the regulations, at least wait until all eight sandalwood sticks are burned, it is over, if the eight sandalwood sticks are burned and have not come out, we can go in, this is the rule. Elder Sanyuan shook his head.
At this time, the sixth sandalwood had finished burning, and the seventh sandalwood began to burn, and everyone's eyes were focused on the last two sandalwoods.
At that time, in the room, everyone was immersed in their own world, and they didn't know the situation of other people at all, and now Hong Yaori desperately hoped, Lu Hao, as Elder Sanyuan said, fainted in the room, so that he was the first in this test, otherwise he would be the second.
So, what is Lu Hao experiencing in the room?
