Chapter 223: It's Hard to Climb the Tower
Since Shi Tuo and the others and Zhuang Yu and the others were not right, they naturally would not mix together and cross the line. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And Shi Tuo and the others were relatively few, and they came relatively early, so they became a group of Dan Xiu disciples who entered the Xuanyin Pagoda first.
It is said that it is a batch, but in fact, there are not a few, after the previous few monks invested in the camp on Zhuang Yu's side, there were only eleven Dan Xiu left on Shi Tuo's side.
To everyone's surprise, as soon as they entered the Xuanyin Tower, Shi Tuo and the others, who were originally close together, lost their traces of each other.
This situation shows that in this ordinary-looking minaret, there is a special space for the same use.
No matter how many Dan Xiu disciples enter the tower at the same time, there is no need to worry about it being too crowded, and naturally there is no need to worry about the interaction between Dan Xiu disciples.
Because, once you enter the Xuanyin Pagoda, even if someone wants to deliberately look for other disciples, it is impossible to do it.
In Shi Tuo's opinion, there is such a setting in the Xuanyin Tower, because it is to avoid the disadvantages of the joint cooperation of Dan Xiu's disciples.
Now that there is no way for the disciples to meet each other, in the end, each Dan Xiu disciple can finally ascend to the first few floors of the Xuanyin Pagoda, and they all have to rely on their own skills, and they must not cheat at all.
Shi Tuo didn't hate this, on the contrary, he believed that not only him, but the other ten Dan Xiu, including Li Yuechan, would be happy because of this situation.
After all, in this situation, no matter how many Dan Xiu there were on Zhuang Yu's side, it would not be able to affect their group.
Otherwise, with Zhuang Yu's temperament, he might not hesitate to let the eleven Dan Xiu under his command sacrifice themselves, and also make it impossible for Shi Tuo and the others to climb the tower properly.
Thinking of this, Shi Tuo had no worries and began to focus on the situation in front of him.
Although before climbing the tower, Liu Lao or the middle-aged male cultivator who was in charge of opening the entrance did not explain the time limit for climbing the tower.
But Shi Tuo knew that the disciple test once every three months only lasted for three days.
In other words, within these three days, Shi Tuo had to climb as much as possible to the upper echelons of the Xuanyin Tower.
It is said that he is ascending the tower, but in fact, the focus is not on the process of going upstairs, whether Shi Tuo can ascend to the higher level of the Xuanyin Tower, it all depends on whether he can refine the pills required to be refined by each layer of the tower.
Of course, this kind of elixir refining is different from the general situation, when Dan Xiu is refining the elixir in the Xuanyin Tower, he will also be disturbed by the constant strange sounds, which is the so-called Xuanyin.
If it is an ordinary sound, no matter how loud and noisy it is, for Dan Xiu, it can be deaf and peaceful, and the interference that can be caused can be said to be minimal.
But the Xuanyin in this Xuanyin Tower is not an ordinary sound at all.
After Shi Tuo entered the Xuanyin Tower, he didn't rush to start checking the pills he needed to refine, but first carefully felt the Xuanyin in the tower.
After a while, Shi Tuo understood the principle of this Xuanyin Tower's rating of disciples and automatic screening.
It turned out that in the mysterious sound that Shi Tuo felt just now, there was actually a fluctuation of the divine soul.
Although this kind of Divine Soul Fluctuation was far worse than Shi Tuo's Divine Soul Attack, it was enough to outperform the ordinary loud noise, and when the Dan Cultivation disciples were refining the pill, it directly impacted their Divine Soul.
And the direct result of this kind of impact is to make the disciples of Dan Cultivation more prone to accidents in the process of refining pills.
After Shi Tuo figured out the principle of screening disciples here, he naturally remembered the Danxiu competition on the Inner Realm Danbi.
Although the two of them are also for the purpose of sieving the Dan cultivation level, in the inner realm Danbi, the practice of all parties is to try to give the Reference Dan masters a perfect alchemy environment, and even the surrounding audience monks are required to remain quiet.
And in the Xuanyin Tower, where Shi Tuo was at this time, he saw what it meant to go the other way.
The alchemy environment in the Xuanyin Pagoda can be said to be deliberately set up to be so bad, in order to test the alchemy ability of the disciples under unfavorable conditions.
In this way, not to mention the more than 20,000 people on Zhuang Yu's side, among the eleven people on Shi Tuo's side, there may be an unpredictable situation in the end.
After all, the monks who had previously ranked high in the Inner Realm Danbi might be left behind when they arrived in the Xuanyin Tower.
Because, the evaluation here tests not only the level of alchemy, but also the ability to resist the impact of the divine soul.
However, this is not a problem for Shi Tuo. At least, the first layer of the Xuanyin Tower in front of him couldn't stop Shi Tuo at all.
The first floor, as the lowest level of the Xuanyin Tower, has the lowest degree of difficulty to pass, and correspondingly, the interference of Xuanyin on this layer is also the slightest.
With Shi Tuo's state of mind on the edge of the realm of keeping one, even if he didn't need to separate his divine soul to resist the impact, he could refine the pill calmly.
The light in the Xuanyin Pagoda is not strong, nor is it dim, giving people the feeling of standing on the wilderness in the afternoon.
If it weren't for Shi Tuo's entry into the Xuanyin Tower through the entrance just now, he wouldn't have believed that he was inside a spire at this time.
With the light that could still see clearly, Shi Tuo walked to the low center of the Xuanyin Tower. The ground floor is open on all sides, except for a raised platform in the center.
The cross-section of the high platform was like a gossip, and Shi Tuo jumped up to the high platform, and found that the elixir that needed to be refined in this first layer was recorded in a jade slip on the high platform. Next to the jade slip, the medicinal materials needed to refine this elixir were already loaded.
Shi Tuo roughly estimated that the medicinal materials prepared were almost enough to refine three assessment pills, which meant that each layer of the test had three opportunities to challenge.
What Yu Jian asked Shi Tuo to refine was a spirit-level second-grade elixir, and this grade of elixir was a piece of cake for Shi Tuo. Even if there was interference from the Xuanyin around, Shi Tuo only took a pillar of incense to complete the requirements and ascended to the second floor.
And when Shi Tuo ascended to the second floor, most of the Dan Xiu were still lingering on the first floor.
A person like Li Yuechan who has a high level of alchemy naturally doesn't feel much difficulty in the first layer, and it is only a matter of time to ascend to the second layer.
But even though Zhongdu Academy is a place where heroes gather, there are always three, six, nine and so on among geniuses.
Those who can enter the Zhongdu Academy are at least able to refine the second-grade elixir of the spirit level on weekdays.
However, being able to refine a spirit-level second-grade pill on weekdays does not mean that a spirit-level second-grade pill can also be refined in the tower.
Those monks who can refine the second-grade elixir of the spirit level on weekdays, but the quality has not been very ideal, the actual alchemy level is in the marginal area.
As soon as he arrived at the Xuanyin Tower, he was slightly affected, and he failed three times in a row, directly on the first floor, and was teleported outside the tower by the suddenly lit up Bagua-shaped platform.
And Dan Xiu, who failed on the first layer, was undoubtedly assessed as a miscellaneous servant. Over the next three months, they will repeat their previous cultivation schedule.
As for their cultivation resources, they will be reduced by half compared to when they were miscellaneous servants at the beginning. It can be said that after this rating, if there are no accidents, the gap between these Dan Xiu and other monks will become wider and wider.
Compared to these Dan Xiu, who failed on the first level and were rated as miscellaneous servants, it was even more pity for the monks who passed the first layer and failed on the second level.
Although they reached the second level, they could only continue to work as handymen for three months because they did not pass the second level test.
Of course, no one in the group of Shi Tuo has the above two situations. It can be seen that the Dan Xiu screened by Danbi in the inner realm is not as wasted as Zhuang Yu imagined.
On the contrary, after waiting for two hours, Shi Tuo and his party all reached the third floor of the Xuanyin Tower.
Among them, Shi Tuo was the fastest, and he had already refined a difficult spirit-level second-grade elixir required by the third layer of the Xuanyin Tower, and successfully ascended to the fourth layer of the Xuanyin Tower.
When he came to the fourth layer, Shi Tuo clearly felt that the surrounding Xuanyin had a phased surge.
If rain is used as a metaphor for the interference caused by the Xuanyin of each layer to Shituo, then the interference of the Xuanyin in the first three layers is like a drizzle, which can almost be ignored.
As soon as he entered the fourth layer, the surrounding Xuanyin interference directly changed from a drizzle storm to a pouring rain, and even Shi Tuo had to put on an umbrella and a raincoat to resist this impact.
Therefore, in order to be able to refine the pill more stably, Shi Tuo had to divide a part of the divine soul to resist the interference of the surrounding Xuanyin.
Not only that, but the difficulty of the fourth layer of the Xuanyin Tower was not only the intensity of the Xuanyin interference, but also the grade of the pill. Shi Tuo picked up the jade slip on the high platform, and what caught his eye was a spirit-level three-grade elixir.
Seeing the improvement of the level of the pill, Shi Tuo said secretly: "This Xuanyin Tower is really not so easy to climb.
Even on weekdays, I'm afraid not all the Dan cultivators who enter the Zhongdu Academy will be able to refine the spirit-level third-grade pill. What's more, in this Xuanyin Tower?"
However, Shi Tuo didn't have to worry too much about the people on his side, because no matter which of the eleven people on Shi Tuo's side, no matter which one of them, they all had the strength to refine the spirit-level spirit machine three-grade elixir.
The only thing that made him a little uneasy was the female cultivator who had given him the trick before, because she was ranked thirteenth among Danby.
Although Shi Tuo didn't pay much attention to it at the time, he still vaguely remembered that the three spiritual pills she refined on Danbi seemed to be of medium quality.
However, Shi Tuo thought about it, it should be no problem for the other party to successfully pass the third layer, and in this way, he should also be able to get a good rating.
Although Shi Tuo didn't know the corresponding ratings of the layers of the Xuanyin Tower, as far as he personally speculated, those who could successfully pass through the third layer and enter the fourth layer were all disciples who were at the edge level of the spirit-level third-rank Dan Master, and they must be able to be selected as inner disciples.
Thinking of this, Shi Tuo retracted his mind and concentrated on coping with the situation in front of him. Although the situation at this time was also a little difficult for him, he didn't feel that he was at the end of it.
Immediately, Shi Tuo released a part of his rich divine consciousness, and according to the way he built the divine consciousness furnace, he surrounded a large divine consciousness furnace and wrapped himself in it.
