Chapter 166, according to the plan to be tested

On April 14, the weather was fine.

Just after noon, Qingshi walked out of Jian Ruochen's house.

Qingshi walked out of the door, turned around and bowed to the door with his fists in his fists and said, "Ruochen is in charge, the junior is gone!" ”

A muffled voice came from inside the door: "Hmm! Go ahead! "Actually, Jian Ruochen is not in the room, he has already gone to the trial cave to ambush, this is just a puppet of Qingshi imitating his voice.

Aoshi closed the door and turned to walk towards the group of people waiting outside. There are fifteen or sixteen people in this group, and the first one is Jian Ruoyun, as well as Jian Ruoyun, one of the five elders of the council, Jian Ruoxiao, Jian Ruoxiao, and Jian Ruotang, two elders of the Lianzi generation, and Jian Lianhai and Jian Lianyan, two disciples of the Lianzi generation.

The others are all disciples of the laughing character generation, including Sword Five, Seven, Nine, Nine, Eleven, and Sword Erjiu.

A group of people hugged Qingshi and walked towards the peak of Juhuading, the stone ladder was curved and narrow, allowing only two people to walk side by side, Qingshi and Jian Ruoyun walked side by side in the front, and the others followed behind.

Jian Ruoyun said as he walked: "The head of the sect should have told you about the general situation of the trial, right?" You can't bring a space artifact like a storage ring! ”

"Yes!" Qingshi said, "Ruochen has already left all the spatial spirit weapons with Ruochen Master. ”

"Well, that's good!" Jian Ruoyun said, "You can bring a sword, what about your sword?" ”

"Jian Jiu will help me hold it." Bluestone Road.

"Oh," Jian Ruoyun said, "Although this test is extremely difficult to pass, it is generally not much dangerous, don't hold on when you encounter a critical moment, give up when you should give up, this time it doesn't work, maybe there will be a next time!" ”

"Juniors understand." Bluestone replied.

The two said as they walked, Jian Ruoyun reminded Qingshi of some precautions from time to time, but he didn't say a word about the content of the test.

Soon, the group walked to the top of Juhua, this is a forbidden place, no private entry and exit, bluestone naturally has not come up, now come up to see, it turned out to be a large stone bag of residual snow accumulation.

The west side of the top of the mountain is a gentle slope, and the buildings of the Immortal Sword Sect are built on this gentle slope layer upon layer, and the highest building is only a hundred zhang away from the top of the mountain. It was from the bluestone that they walked between the buildings, along the stone staircase that winds its way up.

The other three sides are steep cliffs, and the east side is the steepest, and the fog is thick under the cliffs, and there is never a time when the clouds open and the fog disperses.

Qingshi that day from the 'Huading Sword Carving' looked up to the east, watched the 'Sword Sect Sunset' scenery, the towering fairy sword blade seems to be protruding from the top of Juhua, on the top of Juhua to see, only to find that between Juhua Peak and Xianjian Peak there is also an abyss a hundred zhang wide, clouds cover the fog, bottomless.

The Xianjian Peak outside the hundred zhang is at least three hundred zhang higher than the Juhua Peak, the lone peak is raised and plunges into the blue sky, and the peak body is bare without a little vegetation cover. The stone crevices on the cliffs are scattered with a little snow, and the rock walls cut by axes and knives stand thousands of miles, which is extremely majestic.

On the edge of the easternmost cliff of Juhuading, a huge dark brown metal disc was embedded in the boulder on the ground, with a diameter of more than two zhang.

In the center of the disc protrudes a knee-high metal cylinder, as thick as a torso. A thick black iron chain on the cylinder stretched out of the cliff, extending to a small stone platform on the mountainside of Xianjian Peak on the opposite side, and the iron chain on the stone platform was also a metal dwarf pillar inserted into the ground, and on the mountain wall behind the metal pillar, there was a black lacquer hole with a diameter of more than one zhang.

The iron chain of a hundred zhang long hung between the two mountains, neither soft nor tight, and the strong mountain wind blew the thick and heavy iron chain slightly, and from time to time it made a low whistling sound, like a threatening roar from a wild beast, which made people involuntarily feel inexplicable panic.

Qingshi approached the disk, and after a closer look, he saw that the surface of it was etched with complex patterns, this turned out to be a array, bluestone itself has a lot of arrays, but the largest one is only about two feet, he has never seen such a huge array.

This chain connecting Juhua Peak and Immortal Sword Peak is obviously not a simple Xuantie chain, it implies a magic circle.

In addition to the low pillars and chains, there were also several circular components with a diameter of about three feet on the array plate that were slightly protruding, and Qingshi knew that this was the component that provided energy to the magic circle, and there were energy sources such as spirit stones installed in it.

The entire array and chain are dark brown, although they look weathered, but there are no traces of rust at all, this is of course because of the protective effect of the circle, otherwise, after ten thousand years of wind, frost, rain and snow, this metal array plate and chain have not long been weathered and corroded.

Jian Ruoyun saw that Qingshi was observing this array plate so carefully, and knew that he was happy to see the hunting heart, so he introduced to him that this array disk was called the Golden Cloud Disk, which was the control hub of the first level of the trial road.

"This one is bluestone, huh?" Qingshi was carefully studying the golden cloud disk, and a loud voice sounded.

Qingshi raised his eyes and saw that there was one more person on the side of the golden cloud plate, this person was about the same age as Jian Ruoyun, and he looked like he was about fifty, but feeling his breath, Qingshi found that this person was much older than Jian Ruoyun, and it was estimated that he was no less than six hundred years old.

This person was dressed in a black robe, tall, with a thin face and gray beard, and it was estimated that he was Elder Wakaki, one of the five elders.

"The younger generation is bluestone!" Qingshi said with a slight bow.

"Hmmm! The old man Ruomu is in charge of the 'Sword Peak Immortal Traces' trial path. "Sure enough, this person is Jian Ruomu.

"I've seen Elder Wakaki!" Qingshi said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"There is no need to be polite," Jian Ruomu said, "Although you are not a disciple of this sect, you have a deep relationship with this sect, and the head of the sect has told me. I hope you will behave well, if you have the ability to pass the three levels and have the fate to see the immortals, then it will be natural to join my sect. ”

"Thank you, senior!" Qingshi said, "I will do my best to live up to the high expectations of the head and the elders." ”

"Hmmm! Very good! A rare smile appeared on Jian Ruomu's face, "Now I'll tell you the rules, pay attention to it: 1. Except for a sword, you must not carry any spiritual weapons, especially spatial spiritual weapons, otherwise you will be bounced off as soon as you step on this chain, and even if you fail the test, understand?" ”

"Understood."

"2. The test is divided into three steps, first walk through this chain, then enter the cave, pass through the cave and then go up a number of steps, if you can walk the steps to the peak, you will pass the test. You can also observe the sword carving traces left by the sword immortal ancestor on the top of the mountain. The Iron Chain of Trial, the Cave of Trial, and the Ladder of Trial are the triple tests of the path of trial, understand? ”

"Understood."

"3. Each test has its own time limit, the first course is up to three hours, counting from the time you step on the black iron chain, you must complete it within three hours, otherwise you will be considered a failure. After successfully passing it, you can rest on your own until you step into the second test. ”

"The time limit for the second test trial cave is six hours, and the third test trial ladder is nine hours, and if you don't pass it when the time comes, you will be considered a failure."

"No matter when, as long as you fail, it will be immediately transmitted back to this golden cloud disk, but the test is risky, if you die directly in the level, then the one who is teleported back can only be a corpse, so you have to be very careful."

"From now on, there are only three days to pass the test and observe the immortal traces, and whether you pass the test or not, you will be automatically sent back here when the three days are up. Got it? ”

"Understood!"

"Okay!" Ken Ruomu said, "You prepare, tell me when you're ready." ”

"Brother Qingshi, come on!" Kengo cheered loudly behind him.

"Brother Qingshi, be careful," Jian Shiyi said with a smile, "Don't fall down!" ”

"Don't be afraid!" Ken Wu said, "If you fall, you won't fall into the abyss, you will be passed back." ”

"Yes, this first level is absolutely safe," Jian Eleven said with a smile, "The last two levels are different, and you may die!" ”

"If you die, you will be sent back!" Jian Qi said with a rough smile.

"Shut up!" Jian Ruomu said coldly.

Jian Eleven stuck out his tongue, and several people stopped laughing.

Qingshi looked at the abyss under his feet, and then looked at the Immortal Sword Peak opposite. He took a deep breath and said, "I'm ready." Then he walked on the golden cloud disk.

Jian Ruomu also walked on the golden cloud disk, he waved his arm again and again, only to see a layer of faint golden light began to appear on the surface of the golden cloud disk, and the golden light did not radiate, only forming an invisible aura within the scope of the golden cloud disk.

Then, the Xuantie pillar and the Xuantie chain also began to be covered with a faint golden light, and the golden light was like a fast-moving spiritual snake, starting from the golden cloud disk and quickly climbing along the Xuantie chain, extending to the opposite Immortal Sword Peak stone platform in a few breaths.

Jian Ruomu took out a metal circle with a diameter of about five feet, and threw it gently, the circle flew to the top of the bluestone's head, and then moved up and down from head to toe with the bluestone, the circle did not make any sound and color change, Jian Ruomu took the circle and said: "Very good, there is no spiritual weapon!" What about your sword? ”

Qingshi looked at Jian Jiu, where Jian Jiu's wrist waved, a long sword flew over with a scabbard and a rope, Qingshi reached out and took it, and then presented it to Ruomu with both hands, this is not a Qinglian sword, but a low-grade sword at the ground level.

This sword has a thin body, a few points shorter than ordinary swords, there is no sword jaw and no sword grid, and the overall shape is weird. Jian Ruomu pulled out the sword and unsheathed it to examine it carefully, although he was curious, he didn't find any problems.

Jian Ruomu returned the sword into the sheath and handed it to Qingshi and said: "Your sword is quite high-level, but the shape is too curious, in terms of its shape, it does not meet the purpose of my sect's sword, if you can join our sect, this sword will not be used in the future." ”

Qingshi smiled: "My sword is indeed a strange shape, and it is a surprising way to win." "Take it and tie it behind your back.

Jian Ruomu took out a metal bracelet and handed it to Qingshi and said, "This is a pass, you can start wearing it." ”

Qingshi took the bracelet and put it on, feeling the bracelet automatically tighten and fit to his wrist. After concentrating slightly, Qingshi jumped up lightly and stepped on the iron chain, and then walked towards the opposite side without hesitation.
