Chapter 53: The Tower of Trials

After meeting with the rest of the disciples, Su Yunfei and the others began to return to the Shushan Sword Shrine, and on the way they visited the great rivers and mountains, the bustling city, and tasted the special food.

When they learned that they were the disciples of the Shushan Sword Shrine, the shopkeepers of the inn and restaurant resolutely did not want any of their silver taels, which made everyone feel honored and warm, but when they left, they secretly paid the money.

The disciples of the Shushan Sword Shrine have never had a precedent for anyone to dare to eat, live in a hotel and not give money.

After seven days of walking and playing, they returned to the Shushan Sword Shrine.

Nearly 6,000 disciples of the Shushan Sword Shrine have been waiting in the square of the ancestor statue for a long time, and when they saw their comrades who had gone to the far north to besiege and kill the young geniuses of the demon clan stepping into the mountain gate, everyone unsheathed their swords one after another, and the flying swords drew brilliant swords into the sky, and then shouted in unison: "Welcome to all of you in the same door!" ”

The momentum was huge, and the shouts shook the sky, so that all the returning Shushan Sword Shrine disciples were all excited and moved, no matter where they went, Shushan would always be their home and their most solid backing!

Nearly six thousand years of disciples lined up on both sides, giving way to a avenue, and with a heartfelt respectful gaze, they watched them return to the back mountain, especially looking at Su Yunfei, Ye Tingcheng and Dongfang Nan, the eyes of the three people, especially admiration.

Murong Zhan announced that the disciples who participated in the siege of the young geniuses of the demon clan would be rewarded with three opportunities to enter the trial tower to practice their swords, and the fallen disciples' tablets would enter the town sword tower, and the bones would be buried in the place of the sword mound.

On that day, all the disciples dressed in white robes held swords and bowed three times to the fallen disciples in the place of the sword mound.

As soon as Su Yunfei returned to the Forgetful Peak, Yue Yao gave him a big hug, crying with joy, she was extremely worried these days,

Especially when she heard the news that the human race had fallen many monks, and that Su Yunfei was abandoned by the Qingyun Sect to face the siege and killing of forty demon cultivators alone, she was worried, but she couldn't do anything, she couldn't sleep well these days, and she had lost a lot of weight.

Su Yunfei looked at Yue Yao distressedly and comforted: "Sister Yue Yao, don't cry, you see that I haven't come back well." ”

Then Su Yunfei told her some stories about killing demons in the north, and Yueyao was extremely nervous when she listened, her fists were clenched, her fingers were about to pierce her palms, and she kept saying, "It's too dangerous, it's too dangerous." ”

Yueyao didn't continue to pester him, telling him to sleep well, he definitely didn't sleep well these days.

In his dreams, he kept dreaming of a picture of a man whose face he couldn't see clearly, who seemed to be seriously injured, he staggered into a cave, and then carved words on the stone wall with a steam engine, and suddenly he looked back at the entrance of the cave, and then hurried out, and the picture came to an abrupt end.

Su Yunfei woke up from the dream, his forehead was covered with sweat, and then he thought that this dream should be about the stone wall, but the person's face was too blurry to see clearly, and after a while, he couldn't remember the picture in the dream at all. This made him so bored that he simply stopped thinking about it and fell asleep again.

After Su Yunfei returned to the Shushan Sword Shrine, he rested for three days, he did not cultivate in these three days, but accompanied Ye Tingcheng and Yueyao to go to several surrounding cities for a walk, and ate hot pot a few times, which made his mood extremely relaxed.

On the fourth day, he decided to go to the trial tower to practice swords, the trial tower is a nine-story sword tower with a height of thirty zhang, from a distance, it looks like a giant sword pointing to the sky, it is the ancestor of the Shushan Sword Shrine to build Dugu Ye back then, the tower uses the magic power of Sumeru mustard seeds, the space is unusually vast, and it can be used for hundreds of disciples to sharpen the sword in it at a time.

The tower can hone sword intent, swordsmanship, sword qi, sword momentum, as well as wooden stakes, shadow sparring, gravity field, enlightenment dojo, etc., it is a magical place where you can quickly improve your kendo cultivation.

However, due to the huge amount of spars required to open the Trial Tower every time, it only opens for three hours a day, and only disciples who have made significant contributions to the sect or have extremely strong talents are eligible to enter the Trial Tower.

Therefore, whether or not he can be qualified to enter the Trial Tower is also one of the criteria for judging a disciple's status and talent in the sect.

The Trial Tower was on a small peak behind the Heavenly Sword Peak, and Su Yunfei Imperial Sword arrived quickly, and when he arrived at the door, he saw an old man carrying a sword box.

The old man should be the guardian of the Sword Tower, he saw Su Yunfei walking towards him, and said with a smile: "Little baby, you have done a very beautiful job in the north, and if the human race has more sword cultivators like you, the chances of winning in the future will be greater." ”

Su Yunfei smiled, gave the old man a salute, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the appreciation of the seniors, can you point out which place in the junior tower should be tested first." ”

The old man stroked his beard, which was not very long, thought for a moment, and said: "The biggest enemy of every monk is often himself, where do you go to the shadow sparring, enter the third small door on the right hand side of the door, and enter." ”

Su Yunfei thanked the old man, and then entered the door. There are no stairs in the Trial Tower, and there are many doors on the first floor, and if you enter the door, you will be transported to the relevant venue.

After entering the door, the blue light flashed under his feet, and after a short period of dizziness, he came to an empty field, which was very large, and the length and width were ten thousand feet.

There were two balls of light on the wall behind him, with the words beginning and end written respectively, and Su Yunfei pressed the ball of light engraved with the beginning without thinking.

I saw a person exactly like Su Yunfei in front of me, even the sword was exactly the same, but that person's face was cold and he didn't smile.

It turns out that the shadow trial is the meaning of copying oneself and then fighting against oneself.

The two directly drew their swords and began to fight, the same sword intent, the same swordsmanship, the two of them were inseparable, Su Yunfei couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "So I'm so strong?" ”

Putting away his narcissistic heart, he found that his moves, strength, speed, and skill were still very lacking.

So he observed the other self's moves, while finding the flaws, and then he continued to make up for his own shortcomings, and finally after more than a hundred rounds, the shadow was cut out, and then slowly dissipated into nothingness, and then a voice without any emotion suddenly appeared: "Do you want to continue the trial?" ”

Su Yunfei didn't think about it, and replied directly: "Go on!" ”

As soon as the words fell, two selves appeared in front of him, he had the urge to scold his mother, one of them was so difficult to solve, how could the two of them fight, it was equivalent to facing Dongfang Nan and Ye Tingcheng at the same time. However, he also has a high fighting spirit in his heart, and there is no better way to sharpen his kendo than a strong opponent.

After the fight, he was shocked, these two selves were his own after making up for his own flaws.

He was slashed out after only a quarter of an hour, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and shouted, "Come again!" ”

This time, he discovered some flaws in himself, and then continued to improve, his speed became faster and faster, his reaction ability became stronger and stronger, and his sword qi became more and more powerful. In the end, the two of them were cut off and slowly dissipated.

Su Yunfei lay on the ground panting heavily, seriously recalling the details of the battle, and found a lot of flaws, so he started the trial again, and finally after five trials.

The voice without the slightest emotion sounded again: "The trial is over, congratulations on your successful trial." Please press the end of the ball of light, and wish you the future kendo road will go further and further. ”

Su Yunfei bowed to the air, then pressed the end light ball and was teleported out of the trial tower.

Seeing Su Yunfei being teleported out, the old man looked at him with some surprise and asked, "Little baby, have you passed the trial?" Or was he killed by a shadow? ”

Su Yunfei said with a smile: "Senior, I have passed the trial. ”

The old man was stunned for a while, and finally smiled appreciatively: "Not bad! You are the fastest young disciple to pass the trial in these five thousand years, half an hour faster than Ye Nuwa, and you passed it in two hours, you are really talented. ”

Su Yunfei gave a salute, accepted the old man's praise with a smile, and then said, "Senior still has an hour now, which venue do you think I need to go to for training?" ”

The old man stroked his beard and smiled: "Young man, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, first digest the perception of today's trial, and tomorrow you will naturally know which trial you are going to." ”

Su Yunfei bowed and saluted: "Thank you, senior!" ”

The old man nodded in response.

Returning to the Peak of Forgetfulness, he slowly realized the results of today's trial, and then confirmed what to improve next, he decided to go to the gravity field tomorrow to increase his speed.

The next day, Su Yunfei came to the Trial Tower, and after saying hello to the old man guarding the tower, he entered the door of the gravity field.

The gravity field is about the same size as the shadow training field, and there are ten light balls on the wall, each of which reads: twice gravity, three times gravity all the way up to eleven times gravity. After that, there was no more, and eleven times the gravity was already quite unbearable.

Su Yunfei set a goal for himself, under normal circumstances, he could slash out thirty swords in one breath, so he had to be able to take thirty swords in one breath in every gravity situation, so returning to normal gravity, his speed increase would be terrifying.

Without hesitation, he pressed the beam of light with twice the gravity, and suddenly the field trembled, and the invisible pressure seemed to fall from the sky, and he walked two steps and felt like walking with a stone of more than two hundred catties on his back.

He began to swing his sword, and only ten swords were slashed in one breath, and it seemed that the increase in gravity was not directly proportional to the number of times he swung his sword.

Su Yunfei kept swinging his sword, constantly swinging his sword, from ten swords to fifteen swords, then twenty swords, and when he could swing twenty-five swords, his arm had no strength, so he sat cross-legged and breathed for a quarter of an hour.

Then he continued to swing his sword, and finally he could swing thirty swords with one sword at twice the gravity.

Without too much joy, he pressed the button of triple gravity, and after adapting to two times the gravity, three times the gravity, he got used to it in a while, and then it took nearly an hour to achieve three times the gravity, and one sword swung thirty swords.

In the end, when the time came, he was directly teleported out of the trial tower, back to normal gravity, he was a little uncomfortable, he stepped on the ground hard at the beginning of walking, jumped more than ten feet, and the same door passing by looked at him with strange eyes, thinking that this little junior brother was really... Maverick...

Su Yunfei decided that he would be in the gravity field for the next few days until he completed the goal, anyway, he could enter the trial tower an unlimited number of times.
