Chapter 45: The First Light Increases

He and a few people nearby stood there and watched the torture of people not far away.

Glancing at the woman in white surnamed Lu, she was still standing there with a faint expression, in a dark and terrifying place, it seemed that any sin had nothing to do with her, and she could not be contaminated in the slightest.

It's just that what other people are like has nothing to do with him.

Listening to the screams in the steamer, Qi Mingchen felt a little regretful, the pain was nothing to him, but he didn't expect that there were so few sins on his body, he basically didn't experience punishment, and the growth of the first light was also very small, so small that it was negligible.

The sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth floors are: Copper Pillar Purgatory, Knife Mountain Purgatory, Iceberg Purgatory, and Oil Pot Purgatory.

Hundreds of people chose to give up and leave one after another, unable to bear the harsh punishment.

Of these, only the seventh layer he offended.

"Knife Mountain Purgatory, blasphemers, slaughterers, according to the degree of sin, climb the mountain barefoot."

Because he had slain alien beasts, he inevitably violated this article.

In fact, no one escaped this punishment, including the woman surnamed Lu.

When Qi Mingchen found that he had been driven down the mountain to climb to a certain height according to his sin, he felt joy in his heart.

Finally, there was a punishment that fell on him.

He lost his shoes under his feet, stepped on them with his bare feet, and the sharp blade instantly pierced the skin, dripping with blood.

At the same time, the first light between his eyebrows flickered, and sure enough, the energy in it began to rise.

The distance he had to climb wasn't high, so he stopped where he was, ready to continue climbing when his energy stopped growing.

The monster waved the whip to urge him to go up, but unfortunately the whip did not increase his energy from the wound.

There was also a wound in the back, and the pain was no less severe than that in the feet.

He ignored the whips that kept coming from behind, and when he felt that the first light was no longer active, he raised his feet and continued to walk up.

The lava river meanders, and flames churn through it, emitting a scorching gas that scorchs the air.

Sharp knives covered the ground, and each step produced an incomparably sharp pain.

"No, I can't stand it!"

Some people commit suicide on the spot and choose to give up, and others are already in a state of mental breakdown, as if they are unable to leave due to orders or restrictions, and they can no longer support it to continue to persevere.

In the chaotic state, Qi Mingchen still remained awake, walking up step by step, but he stopped and felt every step he took, and waited for the first light to stop growing, and then continued to go up.

After a while, he saw the woman in white, her feet were already drenched in blood, her head was covered with cold sweat, and her face was pale and she insisted on walking up.

This level, without exception, was punished by all.

After this layer, to the ninth layer, no more punishments were received, and the first light grew slowly.

At this time, a monster came up and said, "You have received half of the punishment and have been qualified to leave, so you can leave by reciting "Thanksgiving to the Lord" in your hearts. ”

After all the punishments were overcome, when they heard this, they did not think much about it, but silently recited it in their hearts and disappeared in the same place.

Mu Qingdu on the side was scarred and couldn't see the human appearance, but finally showed a mocking expression, and closed his eyes and disappeared out of thin air in the next second.

Soon, everyone left, leaving only Qi Mingchen unleft.

I saw him walk up to the monster and ask, "I can accept the judgment of the remaining purgatory." ”

The monster looked at him with the eyes of a monster and said, "Are you okay?" ”

"Can't you?"

He didn't care what the other party thought, there was a way to improve the first light, and he naturally wouldn't let it go, even if he had to suffer some pain.

"Yes, yes...... Are you sure? ”

"Hmm."

The monster took him to the tenth level, "Bull pit purgatory, torture livestock, and build happiness on top of it...... You don't. ”

The monster scratched its head and continued, "Eleventh floor, Stone Pressed Purgatory, the one who abandons the baby...... Well, you still don't. ”

"Twelfth floor, purgatory, waste of food, swear words and foul language while eating, well, you have wasted food."

In this way, under the leadership of the monster, he received the exclusive punishment treatment.

From the tenth to the eighteenth floor, he went through it once, but unfortunately, he only violated the twelfth layer, and the rest did not do it.

After all the eighteen layers were passed, the first light in the center of his eyebrows suddenly flashed with light, and a stream of pure energy surged from all around, converging in the center of his eyebrows.

The energy of the first light was originally the size of a bean, but now it has become the size of a copper coin, and the whole body is transparent and comfortable, as if it has been purified.

"Alright, you've accepted all the punishments, let's go!"

He didn't even need to say anything in his mind, the picture around him changed, it became the original space, and after he arrived, everyone's eyes turned to him.

"Why is this guy coming back so slowly?"

"No wonder I've waited so long."

"You can't stay and experience the rest of the punishment!"

"How is that possible?"

In the surrounding discussions, Qi Mingchen found that the choice he made just now had delayed everyone's progress, but he didn't feel guilty, even if he knew this, it wouldn't affect him to improve his strength.

The energy of the first light has been enhanced, and now it has exceeded the acquired period, and he is not clear about what the specific strength is, through the identity card test, he knows that he was at the peak of the day after tomorrow, so now the energy of the first light is at least in the early stage of innateness!

If he used this energy repair elixir, then he would only need to spend a day to repair the Orange Pin's primary elixir.

Mu Qingdu also recovered, walked over, and said, "I remember when you pulled out your tongue before, let that monster continue, you won't really continue to accept the punishment there!" ”

He did not reply, and the discussion lasted only a moment, when they were distracted by another, more important matter.

[Those who participated in the second-level trial, 1,257 people, 851 eliminated people, and 406 people who cleared the customs.] 】

The elimination of so many people in this round did not cause any more shock, but some people discussed:

"Painful trials...... Isn't that the content of last year's Final Trial? Why did you advance to the second floor this time? ”

After experiencing the horrors of purgatory, no one thought it was impossible to eliminate so many people.

"The first level is also scarier than usual."

[At the end of the second layer of trials, starting from the third layer, those who are injured and killed in it will be brought to reality and irreversibly repaired, and the trialists can choose whether to continue or not.] 】

"Don't continue, the second layer is so outrageous, I'm afraid my life will be in danger."

"Even if you can choose to break away in the process, if you don't react in time, you will die."

"It's a pity that I didn't awaken any soul power."

"I've never seen anyone awaken this thing in the past......"

At this moment, a cold snort interrupted the discussion of the people around him.
