Anyone could hear the warning in Chen Mingli's words.
But after finally reaching the talent standard, it would be such a pity if it was lost along the way.
Out of five hundred people, after thinking it over, only dozens dropped out.
The remaining four hundred or so people had determination in their eyes.
The dozens of people who withdrew were not all cowards. Most of them had unresolved concerns and were unwilling to lose their lives.
There was silence for a long time.
Chen Mingli waved his hand.
"Those who are willing to participate in the next assessment, please follow me. The state of mind test will be held at Biyue Lake."
—
Biyue Lake, although its name contains the word "lake", is not actually a lake.
It is a cave reflecting emerald green crystals.
Most of these emerald green crystals are irregular.
Deeply embedded in the cracks of the stones.
Some people want to touch these emerald green crystals.
He was scolded by Chen Mingli.
"If you want to be poisoned, touch it hard."
"Once the poison takes hold, even the most powerful will be powerless to recover."
Everyone was shocked.
Such a beautiful thing is poisonous?
"I know this kind of crystal." The man dressed as a scholar had the good fortune to see an album of monsters, which recorded the origin of this emerald green crystal, and he began to talk about it incessantly.
After listening to the scholar's explanation, the women who were originally attracted by the beauty of crystals began to avoid them.
It turns out that this emerald green crystal is the excrement of a monster.
This monster is called the Blue Moon Snake.
Its excrement contains hallucinogenic toxins.
Ordinary people without any cultivation would immediately foam at the mouth and die if they came into contact with this emerald green crystal.
Even cultivators with advanced skills cannot take it lightly.
If you are mentally fragile or injured, this poison will take advantage of you.
Die of madness at the peak of bliss.
The death was extremely tragic.
"Elder, what's the point of bringing us to this place?"
A voice emerged from the crowd.
Chen Mingli stroked his long beard and spoke in a long voice, "Of course it's for your second round of assessment."
Someone's face turned pale. "Elder, you don't want us to devour this crystal, do you?"
"Yes, there is nothing else in here except this crystal."
"No way, this second level is going to keep us all here?"
"I, I kind of regret not quitting... I do want to cultivate, but I need a life to do so."
"Well, is it too late to run now?"
“…”
The chaotic discussions made Chen Mingli's face darken.
"The Ling Miao Sect has a reputation that has lasted for a century. How could I, Chen, do such a thing as killing a student in the assessment?"
Lu Liangfeng, who was following beside him, still looked nonchalant and idle.
He signaled Chen Mingli with his eyes to open the trap of Biyue Lake. "Alright, alright, Mr. Chen, stop keeping us in suspense. These little guys haven't experienced much and can't stand being scared."
"Listen to the Young Master."
Chen Mingli's expression changed again and again.
Lu Liangfeng is the person with the highest status and power besides the sect leader.
No matter what, he could not disobey Lu Liangfeng's words.
He took out a square plate from his long sleeve.
He gathered mana between his two fingers and infused it onto its surface.
The spacious emerald green cave suddenly began to shake.
Not far ahead, an entire circular area of ground collapsed.
Immediately afterwards, a gorgeous dark blue cage appeared in everyone's sight.
The surface of the cage was shrouded in cold air.
There are emerald green crystal clumps on the edge.
In the center of the cage was a huge monster with a ferocious appearance.
It's a snake beast.
The whole body is emerald green.
The tail is forked and pointed, exuding an unusual magical luster.
Its tail coiled around, covering its broad head.
Maybe he was disturbed.
It spit out scarlet tongue and slowly straightened its huge body.
Only then was its full appearance revealed.
If you say, the tail looks like a sharp weapon.
The head was like a heavy iron hammer, with terrible protrusions on it.
The snake's pupils erected.
Staring at more than 400 people.
Almost everyone present had no cultivation, and after being glared at fiercely by the snake's pupil, they all retreated.
"What kind of monster is this, Elder? Are you planning to feed us to it as food?"
"It was so scary. I felt like my soul was being pulled out of me just by its glare."
"We won't die... We won't die..."
"I don't want to participate in the second round. I want to leave. Elder, please let me go. I'll give up. I'll give up, okay?"
“…”
Chen Mingli put away the square plate and said in an imposing manner, "One by one, listen to me carefully."
"This monster is here to help you get through the levels, not to eat you."
"It's called the Azure Moon Snake, and it can create a place similar to an illusion."
"In a moment, you will be enveloped by a turquoise gas. Don't panic. Close your eyes and immerse yourself in it, and you will see your nightmare."
"You must break the nightmare and regain consciousness to pass the test."
Jade Moon Snake?
There was a strange look in Su Yuening's eyes.
In her previous life, she loved hiding in the Blue Moon Lake and playing with the Blue Moon Snake through the cage.
She didn't like to practice cultivation. When she was troubled or unhappy, she would stay quietly with the Jade Moon Snake, and her heart would also become quiet.
Sometimes, she would feed the Azure Moon Snake.
The Azure Moon Snake would not be mean to her and would often tap the cage with its tail to release a soothing aura to her.
