Li Yuan was probably the least like the disciple of the Inner Court in the thousands of years since the establishment of the Huangting Academy.

Not only is he far beyond ordinary people in terms of the speed of promotion, but the degree of care about the identity of "inner court disciple" is also rare and low.

He didn't go to get the identity card of the disciples of the inner court, nor did he go to see the deacons and masters, as soon as he entered the inner court, he went straight to the direction of purgatory with the deacons of the inner court.

"Purgatory", as a unique place of sharpening in Huangting Academy, is naturally located in the academy.

The location of its entrance is at the junction of the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, the appearance is a wide temple, and there is a huge stone tablet erected in front of the door, with four big characters of "Yongzhen Demon" written on it.

Before arriving at the main hall, Deacon Xiang said first: "If you want to go to purgatory, there are some things I have to say in advance. ”

"Senior, please speak. Li Yuan said humbly.

"Purgatory is a place of life and death, not a place of fun. Although your cultivation has reached the middle stage of condensation, there is still a great risk in the depths of purgatory, so you must follow me closely after entering it, so as not to make any mistakes. ”

Li Yuan said curiously: "Dare to ask the seniors, what kind of strength do you need to come and go freely?"

Xiang Long smiled, "That's far away." There are eighteen layers of purgatory, and the deeper you go, the stronger the monster's strength becomes. Especially the seals and suppresses in the bottom three layers, all of them are super powerhouses comparable to the Xuantong Realm. Even if I went, I had to escape. Don't be too ambitious, the eleventh floor where Chi Xia'er is located is enough for you to have a headache. ”

Purgatory has a boundary every five floors.

The first five layers are the demon beasts in the qi refining stage.

The middle five layers are the little demons and alien monks in the realm of condensation.

The back five layers are already the great demon powerhouses of the Guiyuan realm. For example, the eleventh layer is roughly a group of big demons in the early stage of the Guiyuan Realm.

And on the bottom three floors, it is said that the town is sealed by several demonic demons who were jointly sealed by the first dean and the powerhouses who established Pangshan City back then.

That kind of existence, even the Dean of Thousand Machines would not dare to underestimate it, let alone destroy it.

"That's right. ”

Li Yuan bowed slightly.

Although he had successively defeated the Hengjiang King and the Water Covering King, the two great demons in the early stage of the Returning Yuan Realm, and his strength had improved recently.

However, the strength of the demon cultivators suppressed in purgatory is stronger than that of the outside world, and in addition, they may encounter groups of people who act together, and if they really do, it is also dangerous.

While speaking, the two entered the "Demon Suppression Palace" together.

As the only entrance to Purgatory, there are many people coming and going in the Demon Suppression Hall.

The vast majority are outer courtyards

The disciples, with the identity tokens of the disciples of the outer courtyard, reported their names and cultivation to the deacon at the entrance, and were allowed to enter.

Li Yuan Xiang Long took it, but it saved a lot of trouble, directly reported his name, and entered the entrance smoothly.

The entrance to Purgatory is located in the backyard of the Demon Suppression Temple, and it is a staircase that goes down to thank you, slightly similar to the passage to the Hareland, but on a much smaller scale.

After walking down the stairs for about a few hundred steps, the surrounding light dimmed, and only the spirit stone crystal lamps on the stone walls on both sides emitted a faint light.

Faintly, Li Yuan heard the roars of some wild beasts, and there seemed to be a battle taking place not far away.

"Most of the first layer are eleven or twelve-year-old disciples of the outer court, and their cultivation is below the fourth level of qi refining, and they occasionally fight with wild beasts, which can hone their courage, so basically the disciples of the outer court have to come and practice every other month. ”

Xiang Long explained as he led the way.

"It's really a good way to hone your awareness in real combat. Li Yuan exclaimed.

This kind of training method is very similar to the way he used to train in the Silver Alliance Reserve.

The difference is that in order to prevent accidents among reserve soldiers, most of them use highly realistic "virtual life and death fields" for training.

Although everything is virtual, the degree of simulation is very high, and being in it is not much different from being in reality.

If you die inside, you will be deducted from the trial points, and if the points are not enough, you will have to be eliminated from the reserves.

Back then, Li Yuan experienced thousands of battles in the virtual environment, and died no less than dozens of times.

Rao is like this, and he is still one of the best people in the same batch of reservists.

"Doing more training can help you improve your strength, but if you are not careful, you may also die here. Xiang Long did not forget to warn, "Almost every year in history, more than a dozen disciples of the outer courtyard die in purgatory, either because of carelessness or because of lack of strength, once they die, they can't even get their bodies back, they can only become food for demon beasts." ”

The path of cultivation is accompanied by many dangers, and since it is called "life and death grinding", then in addition to grinding, there are naturally dangers of life and death in it.

"What about the inner court disciples, have anyone ever died in purgatory?" asked Li Yuan.

Xiang Long laughed, shook his head and said: "That's not true, those who can enter the inner courtyard, even if they are not said to be geniuses on the cultivation path, are definitely good seedlings from a thousand, and they will not be so reckless and impulsive." The academy has been established for thousands of years, and so far there are only one or two thousand disciples in the inner courtyard who have gone out, and a large number of them have later become Yihao

Strong. For example, Yang Kaishan, the current county guard, and the chief elder of Qianyun Peak. ”

For more than a thousand years, one or two thousand people......

In other words, on average, only one or two people per year are able to enter the inner courtyard.

"How many disciples are there in the inner courtyard now?" Li Yuan asked.

Xiang Long didn't think about it, "Counting you, there are now fifteen." Among them, a few of them are older, and they have been in the inner courtyard for almost ten years, and their cultivation is close to the late stage of condensation. Of course, there is also the exception of Chi Xia'er, who has been practicing in the academy since she was a child, and entered the inner courtyard when she was ten years old, and now it has been almost fifteen years. ”

Li Yuan bowed slightly, and at the same time became a little curious, "I heard that Chi Xia'er was brought back by the dean himself, and no one seems to know her background?"

"Well, that girl's origin is mysterious, and if the dean doesn't say it, none of us know. I only know that she is extremely talented and has a brutal personality, and sometimes starting a fire will cause changes in the surrounding environment, flying sand and rocks, and dark clouds. ”

"This ???"

Li Yuan was dumbfounded when he heard this.

If you get angry, you will fly sand and stones, and the clouds will be thick, how does this sound like a fairy?

"Isn't her cultivation only in the late stage of condensation, why is it so strange?" he said puzzled.

Xiang Long shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't understand, "No one knows why, when she was seven or eight years old and was still a Qi refining disciple, she was already able to cause a strong wind to blow, and her strength has become stronger and stronger over the years, and the changes caused by anger have also become bigger and bigger." ”

"I've heard Master Dan say that this may be a special physique, born close to heaven and earth, and belongs to a kind of natural supernatural power. ”

Gifted with supernatural powers......

Li Yuan was speechless for a while.

No wonder everyone says that Chi Xia Er is powerful and completely invincible among her peers.

With this unique talent, even if you don't use your hands and stand there and get angry, you can scare off many people.

Xiang Long smiled again: "Although your kid is also talented, there is still a gap between him and Chixia'er. After that, if you learn from her, even if you lose, you don't have to be too discouraged, which of the dozen or so disciples in the inner courtyard is not the pride of the sky? But no one can beat her, this is an indisputable fact. ”

Li Yuan smiled bitterly.

Is this a vaccination for him?

"I'll do my best. He said, "If I really can't defeat her, then I'll calm down and practice until I am victorious." ”

There's no denying that Cabernet is very unique.

But he felt that he had the two major alliance holy texts of "Heart of the Universe" and "Galaxy Holy Body", and he was not an existence to provoke.

Which is stronger or weaker, you have to fight to know!
