A vertical horizontal log appeared in front of Xue Ying, about two inches in diameter, and the length could not be seen at a glance. An old voice came from afar, "This is the first level of the assessment - the path of inquiry, once you step on this crosswood, as long as you say what you think in your heart, you will be stable on this crosswood, meet the requirements of the Meteor Sect will enter the second level, if you do not meet the requirements, you will be safely teleported out; ”

Xue Ying looked around, no one else appeared, there was only this horizontal wood in the space, and it was expected that everyone might be in a different space and participate in the same assessment content.

She felt that she had a firm determination to cultivate immortals without regrets, the perseverance to never give up, the courage to move forward, and nothing could stop her, so she calmly stepped on the horizontal wood.

The old voice came again, "What is your purpose in cultivating immortals?"

Xue Ying didn't answer immediately, she listened carefully to her inner voice, and only spoke after a while, "My parents are both mortals, and they have been coldly looked at and ridiculed by many cultivators in the family.

When I was forced to leave the house, I cultivated immortals in order to gain more power, have greater freedom, do what I liked, and not be dominated by others;

Since starting from Wenqing City to Penglai Xiandao, I feel more and more that I have been in a corner of the Wenqing City clan like a frog at the bottom of a well, I don't know how high the sky is, how deep the sea is, I want to appreciate the wider world, free to swim in the sky.

They are all the purposes of my immortal cultivation, regardless of before and after, and they are also the driving force for me to keep forging ahead. ”

As the words fell, Xue Ying suddenly advanced a long distance on the crossbar, which was a length that had never been seen in the previous assessment.

"The second question, how much can you pay for cultivating immortals?"

Xue Ying also pondered for a while before speaking, "I will never violate my conscience and let down the people who cherish and treat me well, and other than that, I am willing to do my best." ”

"Then the last question, do you have any intentions for the Meteor Sect?"

Xue Ying didn't hesitate this time, and replied categorically, "I don't have any evil thoughts about the Meteor Sect, it's just an indispensable opportunity on my path to cultivating immortals." ”

"Well, I hope you don't forget your original intention, so you can always be. Go for it!"

Then a gust of wind blew suddenly, very violently, Xue Ying even closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was already in a raging fire.

The little ant curled up, "Xiaoying, I'm afraid of fire." ”

Xue Ying woke up from her fright, tore off a corner of a piece of clothes woven of ice silk, wrapped the little ant's whole body, carefully put it in her arms, and comforted, "Don't be afraid, try to hold on, and when we get out of here, I'll release you again." ”

The little ant was surrounded by ice silk, and his whole body still couldn't stop trembling, "Xiao Ying, you have to be careful!"

"Don't worry, we'll be out soon. ”

Xue Ying concentrated and carefully observed the situation in front of her. Directly in front of it is a circular platform, engraved with a simple pattern, which should be the end of this level, but the fire in the middle is burning, dense, and there is no gap to pass.

She tentatively threw out the Xue family's flying sword and commanded it to fly slowly from above, only to see that as soon as it reached the top of the flames, it directly lost control and fell straight down, turning into ashes in the flames.

"Flying through the air doesn't work, and this flame can directly devour the flying sword, and the power is not to be underestimated, and it will not work to quickly pass through it with the monk's body.

But since it is a level of entry assessment, it must be passable, and I must have overlooked some key points. ”

Xue Ying didn't know how long it had been here, but she finally saw some doorways, these flames would collide together in six special locations every quarter of an hour, and when these locations were connected, it looked like an artificially built curved flame road.

She took out six spirit stones in pain, calculated the position of the moment, and threw them one after another to the position where the flames were about to collide, and sure enough, the moment these spirit stones touched the flames, they did not change, but were quickly dissolved and disappeared after the sparks of the flame collision dissipated.

"It seems that I can pass through this sea of fire by stepping on the flame flower at a certain location on time. This level is so cleverly designed, things are extremely opposed, and more flames come together to dissolve each other and reduce its energy!"

For the sake of prudence, Xue Ying still threw down the spirit stone on time in advance, stepped on the spirit stone and flew by, and only relaxed when it reached the circular platform opposite.

Untie the ice silk that surrounded the little ants, "Brother Yi, we're here!"

The little ant breathed a sigh of relief, "Suffocate me, let's go, don't delay here, I don't like fire." ”

Xue Ying touched its head amusedly, put it on her shoulder, and stepped onto the round platform. The whole process was dark, and when Xue Ying's closed eyes opened again, she was already in a one-foot square ice room, cold to the bone, surrounded by thick ice, including the ground.

"Isn't this assessment hot or cold? First brother, how do you feel?"

"It's okay for me, although the cold makes me uncomfortable, but in the end there is no threat to life, I am just afraid of the fire just now. ”

The little ant remembered the scene he had just experienced, and he still felt palpitations.

"It's all right,... Hey, listen carefully, it seems that there are other monks' voices. ”

"Hell, the sea of fire just now restricted flight, I didn't expect it to be the same here, it's the same ice room smashed around, what is the right way to get out? Bang, bang, bang..."

Listening to what he said, it seems that he came here very early, and he has broken a lot of ice chambers, if what he expected is correct, then this should be a giant beehive-like labyrinth made of ice, then the route he has traveled can help him take a lot of unjust roads, Xue Ying thought to herself.

The sound of "bang" was closer to her, and Xue Ying opened her mouth and asked, "Fellow Daoist, I am a formation mage, and I am very confident in getting out of this ice room maze, are you willing to tell me the location of the ice room you broken, and we will cooperate to clear the level." ”

The sound of the impact stopped abruptly, and when Xue Ying's words fell, he immediately replied, "I can cooperate with you, but we need to meet and make a covenant before I can tell you the information, otherwise I will tell you the information, but you will clear the customs by yourself, and I will not be in vain." ”

Xue Ying took out the Fengyun Sword, and at the same time opened the Lotus Platform to a defensive state, and was fully prepared, before he said, "Daoist friends are thoughtful, I agree to establish a covenant, you can determine my location according to my voice, we will work together to open up the ice room, I wish us a happy cooperation first!"

"Okay, that's it. ”

"Bang, bang, bang..." The voice sounded immediately, and Xue Ying did not deliberately slack off, "First brother, you are on guard on the lotus platform, if someone else suddenly appears or the other party is plotting against you for a while, you are my last line of defense, you know? I have to concentrate on trying to break through the ice now." ”

"Xiaoying, you can rest assured. If there is danger, I will release the Lotus Terrace. ”

Xue Ying promised with relief, "At the end of our assessment, no matter whether we succeed or not, we will give you a big leg of lamb as a reward! ”

She continued to use the fireball technique on the ice that was close to the sound, but it was also slow, and it took a day to blast it open and enter another ice room.

"Fellow Daoist, where are you, make a voice and ask me to determine the location. ”

"I'm to your northeast, and there should be two or three ice chambers between us. ”

"Okay, we still have to do it as soon as possible, I don't know if there is a time limit for the assessment. ”

......

In this way, three days later, the two finally met after a loud "bang", and the two made defensive postures at the same time.

Xue Ying saw that the young monk with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square face, and a strong body appeared in front of him had no malicious intent, so he first let down his guard, recalled the little ant, and accepted the lotus platform, "Fellow Daoist, I am Xue Ying, as long as you cooperate sincerely, we will make an alliance now."

I made a vow first, I promised to take the Taoist friend from this level to leave safely after the Taoist friend gave the relevant information about the ice room, and I would not do anything to hurt the Taoist friend on the way, otherwise the immortal path would be cut off. ”

"Haha, since Daoyou is so honest, I won't ink the excuse, my real name is Li Lei, because of my rough appearance and strength like a cow, my friends like to call me a big cow.

I also make an oath hereby that the information I give is absolutely true and reliable, and that I will not hurt my fellow Daoists in the process, otherwise the immortal path will be cut off. ”

After taking the oath one after another, the two of them felt an invisible bondage at the same time, which was a sign that the covenant was recognized by heaven and earth. The oath of a mortal cannot be "listened to by heaven", so heaven and earth have no binding force, and the oath is invalid, and the monk takes off the mortal body at the moment when he draws qi into the body, and once the oath is recognized by heaven and earth, it will be bound and the oath will take effect.

"Okay, fellow Daoist, we can now call us temporary allies. You can tell me where you're going to be in the ice room before I can deduce it. ”

"When I showed up in the ice room, I didn't know where the exit was, so I kept walking south, and I passed about thirty ice houses. It's just that because I was looking for you, I went a little west, well, it should be four ice rooms. ”

Xue Ying carved out his approximate path in the underground ice, "Fellow Daoist, is that so?"

"Yes, that's how I go. ”

"Fellow Daoist, according to my calculations, the Array Eye may be in three locations, one is to go back to your starting point and go north to the next ice room, one is to return to the location where you didn't find me and continue to walk south until the end, and the other is the center of this maze, we need to go straight east for at least twenty ice rooms. ”

"Which of the three do you think is most likely to be the Formation Eye?"

Xue Ying shook her head and destroyed the calculations she had made, "In my opinion, the odds are roughly equal. However, I prefer to go to the first one first, after all, the road has been opened by you, and we don't need to waste a lot of time. ”

"You're a formation mage, and I'll listen to you. That being said, I lead the way. ”

"There are Lao Daoyou. ”
