Chapter Ninety-Seven: Wine and Wealth (Part II)
Next, there are two tests of "wealth" and "qi", and by the time of the fourth test, more than half of the outer disciples have been eliminated.
Collect all the authority of the three talents, and be prosperous and wealthy. Indulge in the good and virtuous hearts, and it is difficult to practice virtue empty-handed. Those who have wealth are admired, and those who have no wealth are despised everywhere. In the past, Shi Chong died because of wealth, and Tongshan did not help Deng Tong to be poor. Wealth and power are heroes, and life is in vain.
Everyone knows that money is not everything, but without money it is absolutely impossible. In the world of cultivating immortals, more important than money are the spiritual treasures of divine weapons, elixirs, sword tricks and spells, as well as all kinds of rare materials.
This time, what appeared in the eyes of those outer disciples was innumerable, a dazzling array of divine weapons and spiritual treasures, elixirs, sword tricks and spells, as well as mountains of various rare materials, brilliant and dazzling brilliance, which made people dizzy.
These are your rewards and you can choose as you please. As long as you defeat the puppets that protect the treasures, those treasures belong to you. In the next test, it may be helpful to you, again, you only have half an hour. The white-headed old man pointed to the treasures, and in front of each of them, there was a humanoid puppet.
This time, even Nangong Xian'er, She Qingmu, and Liu Heng were also tempted, after they chose one thing, a humanoid puppet immediately came to life and became exactly the same appearance as Nangong Xian'er, She Qingmu, and Liu Heng, that's right, as long as you choose any thing, you must defeat an opponent who is exactly the same as yourself, not only in appearance, but also in cultivation ability.
It's just that those puppets fight with instinct, but even so, it is not so easy to defeat themselves. There were also a few outer disciples who took several things in one go because of the greed in their hearts, and were besieged by several of them at the same time, and they were quickly defeated.
Those outer disciples who did not pass the test would wake up and consciously leave when they saw Ji Shaoyu in front of the Seven Killings Palace. There are also smart people who throw away the things in their hands, and sure enough, those puppets also change back to their original state, motionless. But there are still people who are unwilling, and after trying a few times, they found that they all had the same result, so they had no choice but to give up. However, there are also people with excellent talents and qualifications, who defeated the puppet and obtained a treasure in half an hour.
Only An Xiao, she doesn't need any divine weapons and spiritual treasures, her best weapon is her own hands, and she doesn't need any panacea, she only believes in the power she has cultivated, and she doesn't need any sword tricks, for An Xiao, the combat skills of the Jiuli clan are the best exercises.
After the four tests, there were only about two hundred people left in front of the Seven Killing Palace, but Ji Shaoyu didn't plan to stop the test like this, there was one last test, Qi!
The overlord killed himself in Wujiang, and Zhou Yu did not live long. How many brave generals before the battle died because of the fight. Not only that, but it can also tarnish one's own image, distort one's judgment, and even worse, hinder the original plan of action, resulting in the end of the run.
"Very good, next, you only need to pass one of my tests, and you can become a disciple of the Seven Killing Palace. The white-headed old man said to Liu Heng with a smile.
What Liu Heng snatched was a jade slip that recorded the wind spell, but no matter how Liu Heng tried, he couldn't open the jade slip.
"Is it?That's really good, I've waited so long, and I'm finally going to start...... "If Nangong Xian'er is here, she will definitely complain that Liu Heng is too idiotic, those just now, as long as your IQ and EQ can pass the test, you will think that maybe the test has begun." It's just out of caution, and I don't know what will happen next, and I've always been skeptical of the white-headed old man's words.
"One thing, though, must be told to you. The smile on the white-headed old man's face disappeared and became a little serious, making Liu Heng a little restrained.
Different from She Qingmu's handsome and free-spirited, Liu Heng said with some sneering, "So serious, what's the matter?"
"A multiple-choice question, do you want to accept this final test?" The white-headed old man turned his back, put his hands on his shoulder, and looked into the distance, in that white world, it seemed to have infinite mysteries, waiting for someone to explore.
"I thought it was something, of course I was going to be tested. Liu Heng immediately relaxed, breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand, and thought it was just a false alarm.
"No, don't be in a hurry, it's not too late to make a decision after I finish speaking. The white-headed old man turned his head, looked at Liu Heng, and said.
"Uh! I'll listen, please continue. Liu Heng smiled and patted his head and said.
"If you choose to be tested and don't succeed, you will die. Have you thought about it?" The white-headed old man's words immediately made all the outer disciples stunned, even Nangong Xian'er, She Qingmu, and Liu Heng. Although there have been cases of people dying in previous years' tests, I have never seen anyone die as long as they do not pass the test. Not only the Holy Extreme Sect, but even the major sects of the four major continents have not had such a test.
"Are you going to take this final test?" asked the bald man again.
"Yes!" Nangong Xian'er, She Qingmu, Liu Heng, and An Xiao, the four of them responded in unison. Nangong Xian'er has enough confidence, and She Qingmu and Liu Heng will not give up easily, and their personalities are like this. An Xiao didn't think about it so much at all, this is also the first sentence she said in the fantasy of "Limited Monthly Reading", so simple, without a little emotional color, and without a little fluctuation, but the bald old man was so moved that he wanted to cry, and after singing a one-man show for a long time, she finally responded.
This simple multiple-choice question directly reduced the number of outer disciples of less than 200 people by half again.
And in Nangong Xian'er's fantasy world, the white-headed old man was not happy, and before the next words were spoken, Nangong Xian'er couldn't help it, and his little white hand was placed under the white-headed old man's beard, "Stinky old man, you have been inking for so long a day, can't you just be a little bit? It's not fun here at all, hurry up, don't rub it anymore, it's so boring." ”
Nangong Xian'er said, and pulled the beard of the white-headed old man, with an innocent look, and said with a little threat.
"Don't ...... Let go, let go, you've passed the test......" The white-headed old man hurriedly protected his beard and spoke.
As the white-headed old man's words came out, the white space disappeared, and when Nangong Xian'er reacted, she found that she was still standing in front of the Seven Killings Palace, and An Xiao, She Qingmu, and Liu Heng also came back to their senses.
