The fight with Zhang Beiwang in the dark, in fact, if it is just about time, it is not too long. Before and after, Zhang Beiwang stabbed seven or eight swords at He Zhi, and the total time consumed was about fifteen minutes.

However, in these fifteen minutes, the battle of seven or eight moves, for He Zhi, the consumption is almost no less than a life-and-death struggle with someone for more than half an hour!

You must know that even in ordinary life-and-death battles, many times a person's spirit will be tight and loose. Because the battle between two people will be fierce, some will be calm, some will break out, and some will hold each other, and they will not always be at the most tense juncture.

However, in the complete silence of darkness, facing an assassin of Zhang Beiwang's level, He Zhi had to concentrate all his attention on guarding and observing. His spirit couldn't even relax for a moment! Because as long as there was even the slightest flaw in He Zhi's body, he might be caught by Zhang Beiwang and stab with a fatal sword.

Therefore, don't look at the fact that this level has not been going on for a long time, but the consumption brought to He Zhi is even greater than the previous four illusions combined! When he walked out of the trial illusion realm, with He Zhi's strength, he even felt a trace of exhaustion from the depths of his spirit.

This also made He Zhi secretly speechless, not knowing how many outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had passed such a difficult level.

On the other side, many of the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect in the Trial Hall looked at He Zhi, but the discussion stopped all of a sudden.

Among these outer disciples, many of them had watched He Zhi enter the trial illusion realm several times before, and came out several times. Although they didn't know that He Zhi had already passed the Trial Illusion several times, just from what they had seen, He Zhi had already passed the Trial Illusion for at least the fourth time just now.

How long has it been since the trial began?

It's too fast! It's too fast! I don't know how many Golden Sword disciples can't help but exclaim in their hearts.

Qin Shou had already noticed that the surroundings had suddenly quieted down at this time, and then he noticed that everyone's eyes were looking at one place at the same time.

Qin Shou immediately understood, this must be the strong man who surpassed Wang Lu in the mouths of everyone just now. He followed everyone's gaze curiously, and then saw He Zhi.

Is it him? How could it be him? The moment he saw He Zhi, Qin Shou simply had a feeling as if he had been struck by lightning.

Shouldn't he not be able to adapt to the trial strength of our Ten Thousand Swords Sect, so his progress is slow?

Yes, that's right! He passed the first level slower than me, how could he have passed more than three trials in a row in an instant?

Qin Shou kept saying this to himself in his heart. Turning his head, he suddenly saw that another wooden door not far behind He Zhi had opened again.

Then, Wang Lu walked out of the wooden door.

When he saw He Zhi, Wang Lu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and took the initiative to say to He Zhi: "We meet again." ”

Wang Lu spoke to him, and this scene in front of him made Qin Shou grit his teeth.

In the main hall, everyone was even more talking. Inside the outer gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Wang Lu has long been recognized by everyone, and he is a figure who only has a sword in his eyes.

When getting along with people in ordinary times, although Wang Lu can't be called a rejection of people thousands of miles away, he definitely can't be called enthusiastic. Basically, in the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, except for a few people who have always been in the top ten among all the disciples, Wang Lu does not have any friends around him at all—this is completely different from the vast majority of the Golden Sword disciples in the outer gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

Moreover, even among the disciples who were able to rank in the top ten among the Golden Sword disciples, Wang Lu would rarely take the initiative to communicate with them.

In many cases, Wang Lu only saw that they had created new moves in swordsmanship, or made any new breakthroughs in cultivation, and would take the initiative to talk to them and discuss with them the gains and losses in cultivation.

In other words, Wang Lu is indeed a self-serving figure. Unless someone showed something that interested him, it was as if he had completely isolated himself in a world where only he and the sword existed.

And now, Wang Lu, who has such a character, actually took the initiative to talk to He Zhi! This can only show one point - Wang Lu saw from He Zhi's body that he couldn't reach for the time being, and made him have a strong interest!

In other words, Wang Lu took the initiative to talk to He Zhi, which is no less than admitting in public that he is not very wise in some aspects!

Qin Shou's heart once again felt deep jealousy.

For Wang Lu, Qin Shou's feelings are actually quite complicated. In fact, it's not just Qin Shou. Among the Golden Sword disciples of the entire outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, there was actually such an emotion - all of them didn't like Wang Lu very much. Because Wang Lu was too strong, pressing on their heads, making them arrogant and unspeakably depressed.

However, if Wang Lu really found one of them and was willing to talk to them and even make friends, it would be a great glory for them, the Golden Sword disciples of the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

It can be said that if a disciple of the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect can let Wang Lu come to the door and take the initiative to talk. This incident was definitely enough for him to blow in the outer gate for a whole year.

Because Wang Lu took the initiative to come to the door to talk, it was actually equivalent to being recognized by Wang Lu. Among the outer sects of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, this is an honor that is enough to be the envy of everyone.

And Qin Shou is among the outer sects of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and he can also be regarded as one of the most outstanding leaders. Although he is not a figure who can rank in the top ten in the outer gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, but among the top twenty or even the top fifteen in the outer gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, there must be a place for Qin Shou.

But even so, within the outer gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Wang Lu never took the initiative to talk to Qin Shoupan.

Of course, Qin Shou also knew what this was because of this—among the top fifteen outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Qin Shou belonged to the most comprehensive and stable type.

In other words, in Qin Shou's body, you can hardly find any shortcomings. Whether it was swordsmanship, exercises, fighting experience, or the speed of cultivation, Qin Shou was very balanced in each of them.

However, another meaning of equilibrium is that it is characterless. Qin Shou was strong in every direction of his cultivation, but he was not the strongest!

Therefore, to a certain extent, Qin Shou is actually a fully weakened version of Wang Lu. He is not much weaker than Wang Lu in every aspect, but he is weaker than Wang Lu in every aspect.

As for the other Golden Sword disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, most of them have their own specialties. Even Huangfu Tianchi once received an invitation from Wang Lu because of his outstanding swordsmanship and discussed with him for a day and a night. However, Qin Shou never got even a chance to talk to Wang Luchang.

As the leader of the Golden Sword Disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Qin Shou has always regarded this matter as a great shame. And this incident has actually always inspired Qin Shou to keep moving forward and moving forward.

In the depths of Qin Shou's heart, he also longed for Wang Lu to come to the door one day. Let him stand in front of this man who once made him have to look up to him as a victor.

But now, Qin Shou has not been able to get Wang Lu's affirmation, but He Zhi, a guy who has been regarded as an "enemy" by Qin Shou, was actively approached by Wang Lu!

Of course, in addition to jealousy, there was also a strong hostility and vigilance in Qin Shou's heart.

He Zhi was originally the enemy of the Zhang family, and Qin Shou worked hard to keep He Zhi out of the Zhang family's gate. Originally, Qin Shou almost thought that he was going to succeed.

But now he realized that he seemed to have made a huge mistake! He Zhi's strength may be much more powerful than he imagined!

Qin Shou didn't make a sound, pricked up his ears again, and listened carefully to the conversation between He Zhi and Wang Lu.

"yes, meet again. He Zhi was very surprised that Wang Lu would take the initiative to talk to him, but for this disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who was only one step behind himself in the first round of the illusion trial, He Zhi still responded to him very politely.

"You seem to be stronger than I thought. Wang Lu looked at He Zhi carefully, and there seemed to be curiosity in his eyes, "May I take the liberty of asking, is this your first round of trial......s?" I just passed the fourth round of the trial. ”

Wang Lu was very conscious, and before asking He Zhi, he first told his own situation.

"Hmm...... I should have passed five rounds of trials. However, this round of trials just now is a little tricky, and I may take a break for a while. He Zhi didn't have the idea of concealing it, and told Wang Lu about his situation very calmly.

"Oh? After listening to He Zhi's words, Wang Lu couldn't help frowning as if he was a little puzzled, and then he nodded thoughtfully, and walked away again.

He Zhi smiled, and didn't ask more questions because of Wang Lu's unfinished words. He Zhi also walked to the side and sat down, seizing all the time to start recovering his energy.

Most of those Golden Sword disciples in the main hall were not familiar with He Zhi, but Wang Lu was known to them.

Moreover, many of these Golden Sword disciples had talked to Wang Lu before, and they thought that they had some friendship with Wang Lu. Therefore, soon someone couldn't hold it back, and took the initiative to come to Wang Lu's side and ask him about it.

"Senior Brother Wang, what happened to that person just now? Did he really pass the five rounds of testing?" The Golden Sword disciple who spoke was also one of the strongest among the Golden Sword disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. It has also passed three rounds of testing.

However, it was precisely because this Golden Sword disciple had already passed three rounds of testing that he knew better how incredible it was to pass five rounds of testing in a short period of time.

To be honest, this Golden Sword disciple was a little skeptical of He Zhi's words. He even felt that He Zhi was a little suspicious of bragging-because when he spoke before, Wang Lu was the first to take the initiative to say that he had passed the four rounds of tests.

This disciple of the Golden Sword always felt that He Zhi was not because he heard Wang Lu say that he had passed the four rounds of the test, so he said that he had passed the five rounds, so as to overpower Wang Lu and satisfy his vanity.

"Hmm. Didn't you hear him just now?" Wang Lu glanced at the person who asked the question and replied with a smile.

"Hey...... Hearing is hearing. However, Senior Brother Wang, don't you think that he seems to be a bit of a braggart? If you just said that you had passed five rounds, he might have to say that he had already entered six rounds of illusion. ”

"Hehe, it shouldn't be. Wang Lu smiled and shook his head.

"By the way, Senior Brother Wang, I feel very embarrassed when I look at this person. Do you know where he came from?"

"He should be a seeker who entered the sect from the path of seeking immortals. ”

"What??, you came in from the Immortal Seeking Road?" the Ten Thousand Swords Sect disciple was stunned when he heard this, and then said almost subconsciously, "Shouldn't you go to the outer gate to report?

"Huh...... Don't forget, in the rules of our Ten Thousand Swords Sect, it is clearly written that those who enter the sect from the path of seeking immortals, as long as they are willing, they can continue to be tested until they become true disciples. ”

"This ...... This is too outrageous, isn't it?" the disciple still blurted out a sentence, "These people are all mortals and loose cultivators!"

"What about mortal casual cultivation? Among mortals, among casual cultivation, can't there be a truly powerful genius? Besides, when I came out of the first round of testing, I saw that he was already waiting in the main hall. I'm sure he's probably already passed five rounds of trials. ”

"Yes...... But it's only been less than half an hour! Five rounds of trials? At this rate, wouldn't he be able to complete all ten rounds of trials in two hours? This is unprecedented! Since the founding of our Ten Thousand Sword Sect, I'm afraid we haven't had such a powerful outer disciple, right?" When the Golden Sword disciple said this, he couldn't help but even stutter a little.

"Huh...... Two hours......" Wang Lu showed a somewhat regretful smile on his face, "If everything is normal, maybe it's possible." However, I am afraid that he should not have this opportunity. ”

"Hmm, Senior Brother Wang, what do you mean by that?" the Golden Sword disciple wanted to ask, but Wang Lu had no intention of talking to him.

"Nothing. Wang Lu smiled and shook his head, then pulled out his long sword and began to wipe it.

As soon as the Golden Sword disciple saw Wang Lu's action, he knew that the other party had given him an eviction order, and he should leave.

Of course, after this Golden Sword disciple left, the words that Wang Lu had just said quickly spread throughout the hall through his mouth. Many of the Golden Sword disciples in the main hall couldn't help but talk about it.

Wang Lu didn't care about everyone's words, and after resting for about ten minutes, he got up again and entered the illusion. And He Zhi, who had been ahead of Wang Lu before, did not move at this time, still sitting cross-legged in place, constantly adjusting the operation of breathing and mana, and recovering himself.
