Chapter 201: Hidden Spirit Valley
All the disciples of each sect who participated in the third round of testing had to sign a life and death order, and if they unfortunately died during the third round of testing, all the responsibility had nothing to do with the Liangyi faction, and they were responsible for it.
Although in the third round of testing, the Liangyi Sect will try its best to ensure the safety of the test disciples, but accidents in this round of testing are inevitable, so once the above situation occurs, the Liangyi Sect has no choice.
The location of the third round of testing is to a place called Hidden Spirit Valley, and this place called Hidden Spirit Valley has a spirit called Hidden Spirit, hence the name of Hidden Spirit Valley.
Hidden spirits are particularly fond of attacking humans, and will attack humans desperately once they find someone approaching.
Each Hidden Spirit probably has the strength of the late stage of foundation building, which is probably the same as the strength of most of the test disciples present, so it is not particularly easy to defeat the Hidden Spirit.
The content of the third round of testing is to go to the Hidden Spirit Valley to catch the Hidden Spirit.
Each disciple of the Liangyi Sect will be given something called a Hidden Spirit Bottle to each disciple who participates in the test, and will be taught how to use it, with which the Hidden Spirit can be sealed.
But if you want to seal the Hidden Spirit in it, you must first defeat the Hidden Spirit and die of it, and then seal the Hidden Spirit in it with the Hidden Spirit Bottle.
The result of the final test is to win by whoever seals the most hidden spirits, and the most cruel thing is that in this round of testing, there will be only one winner.
That is to say, among all the disciples who participated in the test, only the disciple who sealed the most hidden spirits would be directly selected by the Liangyi Sect, and whether the remaining disciples could pass the test or not depended on whether the Three Venerables could make an exception and select them, which means that in addition to the first place, whether others can enter the Liangyi Sect depends on luck.
And this round, in the Valley of Hidden Spirits, the Liangyi Sect will also place a total of five hundred Hidden Spirits, you can capture them, or you can rob the gains of other disciples, in a word, only those who have obtained the first number of Hidden Spirits can be selected, no matter what method you use.
After the test disciples walked through the ladder with five hundred disciples and elders of various sects, what appeared in front of everyone was the peak of a mountain peak.
The radius here is only a mile, bare and full of rocks, and even the grass does not grow a few roots, except for a huge boulder in the middle, pasted a huge talisman, on which are written some strange mysterious symbols and words, as if there are some demons and monsters suppressed behind it.
As soon as he saw this scene, Zhang Xiaomai remembered the scene under the Five Finger Mountain that he saw in Journey to the West in his previous life, and now this scene is very similar to that scene, so that Zhang Xiaomai can't help but guess what kind of giant demon is being suppressed behind it.
The test disciple first chanted a few words in front of the huge talisman, and the huge talisman immediately fell from the rock.
And to Zhang Xiaomai's surprise, behind the talisman was not a monster that broke through the rock, but a round hole that was enough for several people to enter and exit.
The test disciples gave each of the last 500 disciples a teleportation charm.
As soon as the three days are up, the teleportation charm will automatically work, teleporting back five hundred people, and at that time, whoever has the more hidden spirits sealed in the Hidden Spirit Bottle will be the final winner.
"The time has come, the disciples of all factions have entered the Hidden Spirit Valley!" Zhang Xiaomai had just figured out the rules of the Hidden Spirit Valley, and the test disciples announced that the time to enter the Hidden Spirit Valley had come.
The disciples of various factions went to the entrance of the cave one after another, in order not to let their disciples lose the opportunity too early, so the head of Qianwu Yang arranged his three disciples together, so that when they entered the Hidden Spirit Valley, they could still take care of each other together.
It was only when Zhang Xiaomai entered the Hidden Spirit Valley that he found that the arrangement of the head of the sect had no effect at all, because after the disciples entered the garden cave, they were randomly teleported to any place in the Hidden Spirit Valley, and as soon as he entered the garden cave, he lost contact with Xiao Jingzhi and the Tu Pan Master.
What appeared in front of Zhang Xiaomai's eyes was a huge rift valley, an area about the size of the Golden Jade Peak of the Five Elements Mountains, full of strange peaks and strange rocks and dense forests, among which there were many fierce beasts and those hidden spirits together, making this test full of danger.
After Zhang Xiaomai entered the Hidden Spirit Valley, he suddenly felt a pressure falling from the sky, and his ability to fly during the Dan period suddenly disappeared, and he could only walk on the ground.
Probably the same was true for other disciples, because Zhang Xiaomai walked around here for a while, and found that none of the disciples could fly in the sky.
In just an hour's effort, Zhang Xiaomai saw a young disciple who died on the road, I don't know which family and which faction, but he saw a red mark on his throat, and the whole person suffocated to death, which was the result of the hidden spirit's secret calculation.
It is no wonder that the last round of tests of the Liangyi Sect has to sign a life and death order, this hidden spirit is indeed not something to deal with, Zhang Xiaomai frowned secretly, and began to sow the seeds of the spirit vine under his feet.
At this time, Zhang Xiaomai vaguely felt a sign of aura fluctuation suddenly surging behind him, which made him immediately turn around, and a spirit vine immediately flew out.
But when he saw that in front of him, a white mist-like thing immediately flashed, avoiding Zhang Xiaomai's spirit vine, and flew over from another direction.
This should be the spirit of the hidden spirit, although Zhang Xiaomai has not seen this kind of spirit before, but he has also heard the real person Qian Wuyang talk about it, and when he saw it at this time, he immediately saw that this was the hidden spirit.
Fast, really fast!
Zhang Xiaomai's first impression of the hidden spirit is fast.
Relying on the strength of his early stage of knotting, if he is dealing with a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building now, there is almost no miss, but just now he struck at this hidden spirit, and he actually hit a miss, which couldn't help but make Zhang Xiaomai feel extremely surprised.
But you are fast, Zhang Xiaomai is not slow, and he attacked with a few spirit vines, and immediately let the hidden spirit retreat.
Seeing Zhang Xiaomai's strong strength, the hidden spirit suddenly felt that the situation was not good, so he wanted to slip away, Zhang Xiaomai only then met the first hidden spirit, where would it escape.
Dozens of spirit vines immediately formed a large net, one covering the sky, and immediately enveloped the hidden spirit in it.
The hidden spirit immediately squeaked unwillingly, like a frightened little beast, Zhang Xiaomai was not polite, and immediately tightened the spirit vine net.
The hidden spirit was immediately unable to move, and Zhang Xiaomai was not polite, and immediately collected the hidden spirit into the hidden spirit bottle according to the way taught by the test disciples of the Liangyi Sect to collect the hidden spirit, and Zhang Xiaomai had the first hidden spirit he caught.
Although this hidden spirit action is very fast, it seems that his spirit vine net is their nemesis, Zhang Xiaomai suddenly felt that he had gained a little experience in this spirit hunting operation.
After searching around for another hour, Zhang Xiaomai acted according to the law and caught two hidden spirits.
It's just that with such a capture speed, Zhang Xiaomai thinks that it is too slow, after all, the time given by the Liangyi Sect is only three days, and in these three days, if he only has this efficiency, then he will definitely not be the first disciple in the end.
I have to think of a way, Zhang Xiaomai frowned and thought about it.
After a while, Zhang Xiaomai suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, wouldn't it be better if he could set up some traps first, and then set up some bait, lure those hidden spirits over, catch them with spirit vine traps, and then collect them all.
The spirit vine trap is easy to do, but what to use for these hidden spirit baits, I really don't know, so I have to experiment a few times.
So Zhang Xiaomai first searched in the Hidden Spirit Valley for another hour and found another hidden spirit, but he didn't alarm him, but just remembered its location from afar.
After that, Zhang Xiaomai took out more than a dozen elixirs from the space of the fairy garden and threw them far away in all directions of the hidden spirit to see what kind of reaction the hidden spirit would have.
According to Zhang Xiaomai's thoughts, since this kind of thing is a spirit, then it is bound to like some heaven and earth elixirs, and even feed on them, and it should be the most appropriate thing to use these things as bait.
A moment later, as Zhang Xiaomai expected, the hidden spirit flew in one of the directions.
Zhang Xiaomai saw that it was some of the yellow essence he had planted in the Xianyuan space.
It turned out that this hidden spirit liked Huang Jing, and Zhang Xiaomai was suddenly happy in his heart.
Quickly capture the Hidden Spirit and seal it in his own Hidden Spirit Bottle.
Zhang Xiaomai began the process of laying spirit vine traps in the Hidden Spirit Valley.
As long as he passes through the place, every few zhang, Zhang Xiaomai will inevitably lay a spiritual vine trap, in which is placed a copy of the best yellow essence planted in the space of Zhang Xiaomai's immortal garden.
In this way, Zhang Xiaomai does not have to look for hidden spirits everywhere, he only needs to lay a spirit vine trap, and then patrol every once in a while to see if there is any harvest, which is similar to the Orion hunting in the mountains.
In this way, Zhang Xiaomai laid thousands of spirit vine traps in the places he passed, and then continued to advance towards the north of the Hidden Spirit Valley.
On the second day, finally in the north of the Hidden Spirit Valley, I heard the voices of some disciples arguing.
"Ouyang Feng, don't deceive people too much, why did we work so hard to get the hidden spirit and hand it over to you, who doesn't want to be selected in this selection of the Liangyi Sect, who doesn't want to go back to the glorious lintel, why should we be tied to you!" was a disciple's indignant voice.
"Hmph, Lao Tzu, as the young master of the Flying Dragon Sect, can take a fancy to your little miscellaneous sect, that is to look down on you, whether you hand over the Hidden Spirit Bottle or not, if you still want to be verbose, today is the death date of your two disciples of Yanqing Sect!" Ouyang Feng said very arrogantly.
Ouyang Feng, Zhang Xiaomai heard this name, and immediately smiled slightly, is it really not a family that does not get together!
