Outside the pavilion, it was pitch black in the pavilion, and when I walked into the pavilion, it was still pitch black.

This kind of black, thick as ink, can not see the five fingers.

At this time, the examiner's voice sounded, "If you see the door, you can walk in and go to the higher floor." ”

"Go to the higher levels as much as you can, and if you can't stand it anymore, shout and give up. ”

"When the time comes, the official will save you. ”

"Remember, do what you can. ”

"Good luck to you. ”

When a candidate heard this, he couldn't help but think of the candidate who had been carried out before, and couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Examiner, I don't know what danger is here?"

"Yes, the examiner will talk to us. ”

Several candidates asked several times, but there was no echo from the examiner.

The candidates had to talk to each other, "Fellow Daoists, listen to the examiner, the higher you go, the more dangerous it is, if anyone encounters an accident, everyone must pull each other along." ”

"That's right, everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, and everyone must work together to go further. ”

"Who of us here knows how to use fire magic? ”

"Come on, I'll do a fireball spell. As a woman's voice sounded, everyone felt a fluctuation in spiritual power, but after waiting for a while, the surroundings were not illuminated.

"Fellow Daoist, why haven't you cast this fireball technique yet?"

"I've already done it. ”

"How is it possible, how can there be no light. ”

"This fellow Daoist has indeed cast the Fireball Technique, and the blazing temperature can't deceive people. At this time, Dumb slowly opened his mouth.

The fireball was blazing, and everyone felt it a little, and they felt it.

A voice wondered, "What's going on? How could the fireball not have light?"

"Regardless of why it has no light, now that we can't see anything, what are we going to do?"

Dumb pondered for a moment and said, "The examiner brought us here mainly to test our realm. ”

"And the measure should be to see how many floors we can go. ”

"However, there are yin and yang in the Tao, and there are two sides to things, and this is for us to measure, but it is also a good opportunity for us to break through. ”

"Blindly looking for the door to enter the next level, it is better to think about how to improve the realm. ”

After Dumb's words were finished, everyone on the side fell into a deep groan, and after a while, someone said, "This Daoist brother has a point, but Brother Fang also said that the higher the realm, the higher the realm, which just shows that the higher you go, the greater the chance of breaking through to the next realm, so I think it's better to find the door first, go to a higher level and then realize." ”

"I think the latter Daoist brother is reasonable, and we should find a way to find the door as soon as possible. ”

"I think so, but how do we look for it?"

"Well, let's go around, feel the walls, and search carefully. ”

"Okay, let's do it first. ”

Rustle rustle.......

There was a sound of shredded footsteps, and the group walked away.

After everyone left, the woman's voice suddenly remembered, "Brother Dao, are you still there?"

At this time, Dumb was still standing in place, it was pitch black all around, and he didn't know if the Taoist brother in the woman's mouth was himself, so he asked, "You, it's me who asked?"

The woman recognized that it was Dumb's voice and said happily, "Brother Dao, I think what you said is more reasonable, they have all gone to find the door, what should we do?"

Dumb pondered for a moment and said, "Let go of the induction and try it." ”

"Okay, I'll try. The woman spoke, and there was no sound around her.

Dumb also slowly closed his eyes and let go of the senses.

In Dumb's induction, it was still pitch black all around, but under the subtle induction, he found a trace of abnormality.

This first layer of 'ink' seemed to have life, and even his sensing power could devour it.

Dumb was surprised, and suddenly he thought in his heart that the light of the fireball could not shine, whether it would have something to do with this inky devouring.

Dumb turned the spiritual power in his body, a wisp of fire appeared on his fingertips, and at the same time, the induction was put to the maximum, and Dumb clearly felt that the vitality of the 'ink' was stronger.

The 'breath' of 'ink' began to become apparent, and the breath of ink was different from all the breaths that Dumb had felt so far.

It only inhales but does not exhale, and the reason why it is also called breathing is because its 'inhalation' is regular, and after each inhalation for a period of time, there will be a short pause, which is similar to the rhythm of breathing.

Dumb is strange in his heart, the universe is vast, and there are no wonders.

What exactly is this 'ink'?

Is it gas?

Or is it a tiny life that is invisible to the naked eye?

If ink is life, what is the light that can be swallowed by it?

Could light be a much smaller life?

Light, but also life?

Dumb doesn't know, or even Lu Shi can't answer such a question.

There are too many unsolved and too many mysteries in this world.

The more I learned, the more I was fascinated by it.

Dumb felt the ink carefully, the ink was like a little milk cat waiting to be fed, with its small mouth open, desperately devouring.

Dumb's entire right hand ignited a raging flame, and the inky devouring instantly surged several times, swallowing up all the light that was emitted.

Dumb felt the breath of the 'ink' as it devoured the light.

Following this law, he adjusted the operation of the spiritual power in his body little by little.

At first, no matter how much he adjusted the flow of spiritual power in his meridians, he couldn't imitate that strange breath.

Dumb simply gave up control of the spiritual power meridians, sat down cross-legged, and the flames ignited all over his body, sensing the light around him with the inky color around him.

In this way, I don't know how long it took, and finally the change began.

Dumb didn't take the initiative to urge the spiritual power meridians of his whole body, but the spiritual power and meridians in his body began to tremble slightly.

It felt like my heart was beating.

Then the spiritual power of his whole body suddenly turned into a trajectory that he had never felt and could not describe.

Bang!

Bang!

Slowly, the beating of the meridians of Dumb's whole body began to become regular, and slowly began to coincide with the rhythm of the inky breath.

Then Dumb felt a trace of warmth emerge from his body, and then began to swim in his body, from the soles of his feet and palms, from every inch of his body skin up little by little, and finally completely converged to the center of his eyebrows.

Dumb felt his brows cold, as if someone had put a piece of ice on his forehead.

As time passed, he felt that his body was getting colder and colder, and the whole person seemed to be frozen into an ice sculpture, not only that, but the center of his eyebrows became colder and colder, and his mind was a little wooden.

But Dumb still insisted, because in his senses, the ink around him began to gradually dissipate.

I don't know how long it took, until the entire first layer of ink completely disappeared, the coldness disappeared, and although his eyes were closed, his eyes were as bright as day, and everything was clearly visible.
