Chapter VI: Where the Danger Is
Zhang Tie stopped in front of a building with a group of children, he raised his head and looked at the building not far away with some surprise.
The building is not high, occupies a large area, and the strange thing is that the building is not known what it was built for, and the whole body is pitch black, giving people a mysterious feeling.
"Is this the place to take the test?"
With curiosity, Zhang Tie turned his head and admonished the child behind him, and then walked towards the crowd in front of him.
"Excuse me, is this the place to take the test?"
Zhang Tie stopped an old man and asked.
The old man looked Zhang Tie up and down, and said with a puzzled look: "Yes, yes here, do you also want to participate in the assessment?"
The old man was very puzzled, he really encountered something strange today.
Although there is no age limit for the inheritance assessment, he looked at Zhang Tie's age, as if he had already passed the age of taking the exam.
"I took the children in the village to take the test!"
Zhang Tie responded with a smile, but his heart moved, could he also participate in the assessment of the supreme inheritance?
Confused, he took all the children to the place where they had signed up.
"Do all children have to take the test?"
The person in charge of registration looked at the child behind Zhang Tie and looked up and asked.
"By the way, can I take the test?"
"You?"
The person in charge originally lowered his head to prepare for the record, but after hearing Zhang Tie's question, he raised his head again and looked Zhang Tie up and down.
After a while, his face became serious, and he said, "It stands to reason that you can take the test." However, I would like to remind you that everyone can only participate in the Supreme Inheritance Assessment once, and the second time they participate, they will definitely die!"
After finishing, the person in charge looked puzzled, "Are you sure you haven't taken the assessment at your age?"
"Didn't attend. ”
Zhang Tie shook his head.
"That's fine!"
I was in charge of toughening my head and began to record. After a while, the person in charge gave Zhang Tie a bag, "Here are the tokens for participating in the exam, a total of fifty-eight, you let all the children drip blood into it, and they will know how to take the test, and you are the same!"
"Thank you!"
Zhang Tie took the bag, ignored all the discussions around him, found the children waiting on the side, left a token for himself, sent all the other tokens, and taught them how to use them, Zhang Tie took out his token.
"Dripping blood?"
Zhang Tie was puzzled and dripped a drop of blood onto the token.
As the blood dripped in, the token in Zhang Tie's hand suddenly flashed with a dazzling light.
The strong light immediately attracted the person in charge of the registration not far away, he raised his head sharply, looked at the place where Zhang Tie was, and frowned, "Someone from the outside world?"
As soon as the voice of the person in charge landed, several figures shot towards Zhang Tie very quickly.
"Someone from outside!"
When Zhang Tie was still sinking into the token in his hand, a thunderous roar sounded in his ears. When he looked up, he found himself surrounded by several terrifying figures.
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Tie frowned, and quietly took out his natal flying sword.
He wondered how he had been exposed, and then his gaze swept to the token that was still glowing.
Is this a token? What should I do now?
"Stand down!"
At this time, an old, white-haired figure slowly appeared beside Zhang Tie, and shouted angrily at the figure surrounding Zhang Tie.
"Big ...... My lord!"
"I, step aside!"
The old man's crutches were a little heavier on the ground, and a shockwave visible to the naked eye centered on his body, spreading towards the figure surrounding Zhang Tie.
Plop, plop!
After the shock wave, all the figures surrounding Zhang Tie fell to the ground, and there was a look of fear on their faces.
Seeing that the old man's face was getting more and more ugly, they hurriedly left.
"Man, I originally wanted you to be forced to participate in the assessment, but I didn't expect you to participate in it yourself!"
The old man looked at Zhang Tie with a slight smile on his face.
Grunt!
Zhang Tie looked at the old man in front of him and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
The scene just now was absolutely real, but Zhang Tie turned his head to look around, and the pedestrians around him didn't seem to notice what had just happened at all, and they all looked at the token in their hands with strange eyes.
This, what the hell is going on?
It was also on the sculpture side before, and in that moment, the space seemed to be frozen, and except for himself and the old man, all other time seemed to stop.
"Man!"
When Zhang Tie's face was full of shock, the old man slowly walked up to Zhang Tie and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ah, yes, I'm here, senior!"
Zhang Tie's whole body trembled, and he reacted immediately, with an extremely respectful look on his face.
"That's scared?"
The old man shook his head and said to himself, "Anyway, he is also from the Pangu world. ”
"Come with me!"
The old man shook his head as he led the way towards the pitch-black building.
"Former ...... Senior!"
Zhang Tie stopped in place and touched his head with some embarrassment.
"What's the matter?"
The old man turned around, his head bowed, and his expression could not be seen.
"I'm leaving with you, what about those children?"
Zhang Tie pointed to the group of children who were looking at him with doubts not far away, and asked the old man.
After asking this question, Zhang Tie's heart hung in the air.
This old man doesn't look very good-tempered. He was afraid, unintentionally offending the old man.
"I'll let someone arrange it, you come along!"
The old man shook his head and continued to walk towards the dark building.
"Here?"
After Zhang Tie followed the old man into the pitch-black building, his face was full of shock. Inside the pitch-black building, it was also pitch black.
The only light was a faint glow overhead.
"Sit!"
When Zhang Tie was shocked, the old man had already stopped, only to see the crutches in his hand gently move on the ground, and a bright room immediately appeared in the dark place.
"What kind of means is this?"
Zhang Tie sat opposite the old man with doubts.
"How did you come to the Sword Palace, it's been a long time since anyone from the outside world came!"
The old man didn't know when there was an extra wine gourd in his hand, and he drank the wine in the wine gourd.
"I was sent by a friend. ”
Zhang Tie touched his head and replied truthfully.
"Sent by a friend?"
Unexpectedly, after he finished saying this, the old man's eyes immediately brightened, and he asked again, "Which friend?"
"Split Mountain Sword Sect, Jade Xuanfeng Peak Lord. ”
"The Split Mountain Sword Sect?"
The old man frowned, and after falling into contemplation for a long time, he shook his head, "I haven't been to the Pangu world for a long time, and the Pangu world is still full of talents!"
"Senpai!"
Zhang Tie suddenly stood up, with an extremely excited look on his face, "Senior, can I still go back to the original place?"
"Sit down!"
The old man, who was originally quite good to Zhang Tie, snorted coldly, and Zhang Tie quickly sat on the chair with his ass oppressed by an irresistible force.
"Want to go back?"
The old man took another sip of wine and looked at Zhang Tie with a smile, "You can save your life first!"
"Saving your life?"
Zhang Tie was startled, his eyes full of puzzlement.
"Hmph, what do you think is the place of the Sword Palace, you can come here!"
The old man snorted coldly again, and his face immediately became unkind. He looked at Zhang Tie coldly and said, "The Sword Palace is a world created by the Emperor, and those who enter the Sword Palace will die without the permission of the Emperor!"
When he said this, Zhang Tie was so oppressed by his momentum that he was almost out of breath, and his close-fitting clothes were already soaked with sweat.
"But!"
As soon as the old man's voice changed, Zhang Tie immediately felt much more relaxed.
I saw him lower his head again, and his flat voice sounded again, "Without the token of the emperor, it is impossible for your friend to find the Sword Palace." In this way, you will also get the permission of the Emperor to enter the Sword Palace!"
When Zhang Tie just breathed a sigh of relief, the old man shook his head at him, "Don't feel that there is nothing to do!"
The old man raised his head, his eyes flashed, "The Sword Palace has the rules of the Sword Palace, anyone from the outside world must participate in the assessment of the Supreme Inheritance, and those who do not participate will be directly executed! One thing I want to remind you is that if someone from the outside world participates in the assessment, the difficulty of the test will be directly increased by ten times! The assessment that was originally not dangerous will also become extremely dangerous!"
Bang!
A thunderbolt sounded in Zhang Tie's head, and at this moment, he finally understood what the danger of the peak master meant.
The peak master's place is very dangerous, referring to the assessment of the Sword Palace.
Ten times more difficult and extremely dangerous?
For a while, Zhang Tie felt that it was difficult for him to ride a tiger.
"However, if you pass the assessment, you can get unexpected benefits!"
It seemed that seeing Zhang Tie's face become very ugly, the old man's words sounded in Zhang Tie's ears again.
While drinking the wine, he shook his head and said, "The supreme inheritance, but the emperor left it." To be able to obtain the inheritance of the Emperor Venerable, that is something that many people dream of? Don't you want to return to the original world? As long as you can live and obtain the supreme inheritance, I will immediately send you back to the original world!"
"Really?"
"I can't lie to you!"
The old man shook his head and continued to drink.
"When will the assessment start?"
"Don't worry, the assessment from the outside world is different from the local assessment of the Sword Palace, and after the local assessment is completed, the assessment will be arranged for you separately!"
"Senior, can I see which children I bring to the test?"
Zhang Tie was cheeky and made a request to the old man.
Watching the children's assessment is fake, in fact, he wants to see what is going on with the assessment first.
"It doesn't hurt for you to take a look, your assessment is completely different from theirs!"
The old man shook his head, as if he understood Zhang Tie's intentions, and saw that when he waved his hand, the originally bright room became dark again, and not far away, a very large and bright room appeared.
Inside the room, an assessment is underway.
"I brought the child!"
Zhang Tie immediately recognized that the test was being taken in the room, and it was the child he brought over.
"It is forbidden to use the power of the sword, once it is discovered, it will be judged that the assessment has failed, and the assessment begins!"
In the huge room, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child froze in place, a little at a loss.
"Please pierce the plank in front of you without mountain fruits!"
As the child sat down, the sound of machinery sounded again in the room, and with it, a very thin plank rose not far from the child, behind which was a bright red fruit.
"Please start the assessment!"
As the planks were raised, the sound of machinery was constantly heard in the room.
"Please start the assessment!"
Over and over again, under the constant urging of the mechanical sound, the originally dazed child finally woke up, only to see him lift the long sword in his hand and stab it towards the wooden plank not far away with all his might.
Poof!
The sword pierced the thin plank, but the bright red fruit behind the plank was also pierced.
"Failed the assessment!Please leave!"
Next, a child with one appeared in the large room. But almost all the children failed.
Without using the power of the sword, even if the children have some cultivation, the sword can completely lose its accuracy and control.
Some of the children couldn't even pierce the plank.
Slightly better, it is the fruit that pierces the plank, but the mountain behind the plank.
"This boy is good!"
As time passed, the old man next to Zhang Tie suddenly let out an exclamation, hurriedly put down the wine gourd in his hand, and watched it with Zhang Tie.
I saw that in the huge room, a teenager was passing the assessment again and again. It seems that all the assessments are not difficult in his eyes.
"Sun Le?"
The corners of Zhang Tie's mouth curled slightly, but there were terrifying waves in his heart.
He never thought that the supreme inheritance assessment of the Sword Palace was actually related to the control of the long sword.
If his own assessment is also these, then the extremely dangerous assessment is not a little difficult for him.
"Defeated!"
The old man shook his head very regretfully, but his eyes were full of appreciation.
After a while, the voice of the old man sounded in the huge room.
"Guy, although you failed the assessment, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"
When the old man's voice sounded, his old figure appeared in front of Sun Le.
"The disciple is willing!"
Sun Le's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Haha, I received a nice disciple!"
Zhang Tie looked at the huge room, then looked at his side, and wondered: "Divine power, doppelganger technique?"
"Good eyesight!"
The old man beside Zhang Tie was drinking wine, and his eyes revealed excitement.
"Senior, I want to know, who proposed this way of testing consumption?"
"Of course it's the Emperor!"
The old man glared at Zhang Tie, revealing an unhappy look.
Zhang Tie closed his mouth, and there was a shock in his heart.
This method was learned when he was in the Black Feather Guard Training Camp. Moreover, the person who created this method was only a person who didn't even have the Ning Dan period, Liu Xinghe.
Liu Xinghe may not even have achieved the unity of human and sword.
It's still himself, through continuous practice, that he has groped for the unity of human and sword, and has groped for the degree of mastering sword intent.
Why would the legendary emperor use this method as an assessment?
