Chapter 44: The Day of Trial

Going down the river valley in front of the left, Zhou Xiao found the Demon Hell Curse Valley.

The valley is next to the shallows of the lake, and on the north and south sides stands a steep and towering mountain, like two giant gates, leaving only a gap.

The valley was shrouded in a blood-red haze, and Zhou Xiao stretched out his hand to play with it, only to find that the seemingly gaseous haze was actually as solid as ice and so heavy that he couldn't move even a little with all his might.

"Fool, it's not an ordinary haze, it's a wilderness haze formed by the condensation of evil qi, and it can't even break through the Taoist realm, so don't waste your strength!"

"Hey, isn't this Zhou Xiao?"

"That Zhou Xiao who went to the medicine shop some time ago, why, he also came to participate in the Demon Hell Curse Valley Trial?"

"Isn't the apprentice of the medicine shop here looking for death? Hey, little facial paralysis, what about asking you? Are you stupid?"

On the other side, there were more than thirty elite academy disciples sitting cross-legged, recuperating and preparing for the upcoming trial.

Zhou Xiao turned a deaf ear, his pulse ran through his arms, surging towards the blood-colored haze, and he was determined to crush the hard haze.

Syllable!

The haze didn't move at all, but Zhou Xiao himself was shocked by the rebounding Dao energy.

Laughter erupted.

Zhou Xiao got up and continued to pounce on the blood mist, striking wildly, as if he was afraid that his strength would not be exhausted.

Boom!

Zhou Xiao was bounced out again, and he looked slightly embarrassed when he got up.

The disciples of the Elite Academy looked at Zhou Xiao curiously, and just when they thought that Zhou Xiao would retreat in the face of difficulties, Zhou Xiao swept out with a "whoosh", and slashed at the blood mist with a sword finger, leaving no room for action, and going all out, as if facing the enemy who killed his father.

The young disciples on the shallows couldn't hold back any longer, laughing heartily and staggering.

"Hahahaha...... I'm laughing to death, I've never seen such a stupid person!"

"I'm crazy, I guess I took the wrong medicine in the pharmacy. ”

"I was a little nervous about participating in this trial, but I suddenly felt much more relaxed and happy when I saw this idiot!"

In the crowd, Xiang Yuge's face was full of incredulity. Zhou Xiao, who was stupid in front of him, and the young genius who defeated Zhuang Yigu with one move on the Dragon Seal Platform that night were like two people.

"Don't you think it's funny?"

A deep voice rang out.

The one who spoke was a black-robed young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, he was sitting not far away, his bearing was detached, and a circle of dust and light surrounded him. Being able to control the dust and light without using martial arts, and to this extent, is really rare in the Daoist realm.

"Yi Yunxing, what do you mean. Xiang Yuge glanced at the black-robed young man, and his tone was indifferent.

Yi Yunxing, a tenth-order Taoist disciple and a sixth-ranked genius disciple in the Elite Academy, is strong and strong, and he is also one of the targets that Xiang Yuge is chasing after.

Yi Yunxing smiled playfully and didn't speak, but another young man in a yellow shirt spoke: "Senior Brother Xiang, there is no impermeable wall in this world, not to mention that you gave the Blood Master Spell to Zhou Xiao, it is not a trivial matter. ”

Xiang Yuge's expression was a little unnatural.

The young man in the yellow shirt is named Wang Hengyang, he has an ordinary appearance and an ordinary temperament, but those who are familiar with him will know that as the fourth place on the elite academy list, Wang Hengyang is old and serious, low-key on the surface, but in fact, he is quite thoughtful, and he is an absolutely difficult character.

Among the more than thirty disciples from the elite academy who came to participate in the Demon Hell Curse Valley trial, Wang Hengyang ranked first in both prestige and strength, followed by Yi Yunxing, followed by Xiang Yuge, who was outside the top ten on the list. Compared with Wang Hengyang and Yi Yunxing, Xiang Yuge is a lot worse in strength.

"Xiang Yuge, your vision is too bad. Why did you choose such a person as your goal? I was so optimistic about you in the past, you really disappointed my brother. Yi Yunxing sneered.

"When I heard that the apothecary apprentices participated in this trial, most of them would go crazy. Before the trial began, he was already ...... like this" Wang Hengyang shook his head and said lightly: "I also heard that the disciples of the Xiang family will be very cautious when they donate blood master mantras. And the Zhou Xiao chosen by the junior brother is a little inexplicable. Not only is his strength weak, but his mind is also very fragile, and Senior Brother Xiang chose such a weak person as a target, and if it is spread out, I am afraid that it will damage the reputation of the Xiang family. ”

One after another surprised eyes fell on Xiang Yuge, although no one said anything more, the implication was obvious.

Xiang Yuge's face turned red, and he said with some embarrassment: "Zhou laughed at him...... It's actually very strong. ”

Wang Hengyang smiled silently and did not speak.

Yi Yunxing laughed even more, not hiding the disdain in his eyes.

Xiang Yuge was embarrassed and indignant, after watching the battle between Zhou Xiao and Zhuang Zhengu, he was shocked by Zhou Xiao, and he had a feeling that his confidence was suppressed, and his intuition told him that maybe for a long time in the future, he would not be able to surpass Zhou Xiao.

But even so, he never regretted it, but was glad that he finally found such an opponent. And yet now......

"Zhou Xiao!"

Xiang Yuge got up and walked to Zhou Xiao's side, and said angrily: "Are you crazy? The trial hasn't started yet, what are you doing here in vain?"

Zhou Xiao glanced at Xiang Yuge: "Come and fight with me." ”

Xiang Yuge was stunned, looking at Zhou Xiao as if he was looking at a madman: "Together, attack the Wilderness Blood Mist with you?" Zhou Xiao, are you really crazy?"

"Before you defeat me, you need to treat me with a teacher, and you have to do whatever I tell you to do. Have you forgotten?" Zhou Xiao wiped the sweat off his forehead and threw another punch.

There were bursts of laughter behind him, Xiang Yuge's face was red, and he stared at Zhou Xiao with gritted teeth: "I used to think that you would become the target of my Xiang Yuge for a long time to follow, or even a half-life enemy! But I didn't expect you to fall so quickly! Can you tell me why you are behaving like a madman now?"

Zhou Xiao took two steps back: "Do you really want to know?"

Xiang Yuge looked at Zhou Xiao hesitantly: "Of course I want to...... Hey, you're not crazy?"

"Then let's fight it together. Zhou smiled.

"You ......"

Xiang Yuge was angry, and the laughter from behind him provoked his anger, his brain was hot, and he punched the blood mist in front of him.

Bang!bang!bang...... Xiang Yuge slammed into a burst of anger with anger, and after twenty punches, he suddenly found that the speed at which the pulse qi path could be consumed had increased sharply.

"The wilderness environment is not conducive to human monks, and the bloody haze is one of them. One of the dangers of blood evil is devouring Dao energy. ”

Zhou Xiao's voice sounded in his ears, Xiang Yuge was stunned, and looked at Zhou Xiao complicatedly, only then did he realize that the Dao energy in Zhou Xiao's body had been consumed.

Participating in the trial in this extremely weak situation is not looking for death? Zhou Xiao is really crazy!

......

Soon, it was getting dark.

The disciples of the Elite Academy no longer cared about laughing at Zhou Xiao and Xiang Yuge, they looked at the valley with excitement in their eyes.

The remnant sun is like blood, adorned with dusk.

In front of the blue and inky valley, the air trembled, like a white cloth blown by the wind.

A crack appeared in the air, and the crack widened, like a giant eye that opened, and a picture of water shadow emerged from it.

A line of words flashed in the picture of the Xuanmen: The trial of the Demon Hell Curse Valley is open, and those who participate in the trial need to stay in the valley for at least ten days, and after ten days, they can leave safely before they can pass the trial.

The purpose of the trial: to imitate the wilderness scene, hone the skills to survive in the wilderness environment, and deal with the common spiritual crisis in the wilderness.

Exit Prompt: Run the pulse qi and recite the mantra of the word "one" to get out of the Demon Hell Curse Valley, and at the same time declare the trial failed.

Trial Reward: Heaven and Earth Treasure, those who can get it. At the end of the trial, you can take away all that you have gained from the valley. In addition, you can also earn bonus points.
