Rewards for passing the Trial Tower, Absolute Realm

After leaving the Xuanming Rule Cave, the Fifth Wing looked at the rankings and found that Qin Ruqing was no longer in Yuansheng.

But the Fifth Youlin was still inside. In other words, Qin Ruqing, who entered later, came out earlier than the Fifth Youlin who entered earlier.

With a mocking smile on his lips, the Fifth Wing commented indifferently: "My useless brother is really useless."

The second rule cave he chose was the Five Elements.

The Five Elements are divided into five major categories, and the assessments under each category are different. The Fifth Wing looked at the five light balls in front of him and randomly picked a color to enter.

At the same time, Tang Zifeng in the Metal Rule Cave seemed to have sensed something and suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were calm, and his long eyelashes, as black as crow feathers, cast a shadow under his eyes.

Tang Zifeng had actually passed through the metal rule cave a long time ago, but he did not choose to leave. He had learned a lot in this cave and felt good.

Of course, the most important reason was: Qingqing was still circulating in various rule caves for some unknown reason.

She was still inside, and it would be boring for him to go out and wait, so it would be better for him to stay inside and digest the gains of this trip.

Tang Zifeng's current state of practice was interrupted because the person who had just entered the rule cave disturbed him. This person rushed in as soon as he came in, and madly manipulated the power of rules with a bandit-like posture, even affecting the space he was in.

Tang Zifeng's eyes moved, and the power of rules around him began to materialize and turned into a big bell.

When the big bell covered all the power of rules in this space, making it impossible to shake it, Tang Zifeng closed his eyes again.

No matter who came, as long as it did not affect him, Tang Zifeng did not care.

Not long after, a figure flew over this space. The figure was tall and slender, wearing a black wide-sleeved robe, and was looking coldly at the direction where Tang Zifeng was.

The person who came was the Fifth Feather.

He looked carefully for a while and finally found the clue. It turned out that the power of rules in this space was blocked by everyone.

The Fifth Feather did not care much at first. It was blocked, so it was opened.

Behind him, a huge spear with a cold light on the tip appeared. The spear pointed the tip at the blocked space, and after accumulating power for a while, it pierced through like thunder. Although it was a virtual product, it still made people feel the boundless murderous aura.

The spear quickly penetrated halfway, but suddenly stopped, as if it had touched something solid. The spear body trembled with a buzzing sound due to the recoil.

The fifth feather's eyebrows moved slightly, and it was not until this time that he cast a serious look in that direction.

Because of the spear attack just now, the person hidden behind the space finally revealed his figure, and it turned out to be someone he knew - the number one weapon refiner of the young generation in Xiling, a weapon refiner genius whose reputation even surpassed the old generation of weapon masters, Tang Zifeng.

Although Diwu Lingyu had been the director of Xiling for several years, he had only had a few dealings with this talented young man who came from a local silver family in Xiling.

His deepest impression of Tang Zifeng was that he was a little follower who liked to stick behind Qin Ruqing and obey her every word.

Of course, he said he was a little follower, but he knew that Qin Ruqing regarded him as a member of the team and trusted and valued him very much.

Somehow, seeing Tang Zifeng's calm and handsome face, it seemed like he hadn't seen him for several years. He had grown from a brat in his impression to a real man.

... Suddenly, a strange idea came into his mind - he wanted to fight with Tang Zifeng.

This idea seemed to come without reason and made no sense. After all, he had never taken Tang Zifeng seriously.

But the Fifth Feather has always been following his heart, so he thought so and did so.

The two people looked at each other from a distance, and the spear suspended in the air suddenly began to rotate on its own. It seemed that some hidden changes had occurred, and the spear body had an amazing momentum that was unstoppable.

Tang Zifeng's expression did not change at all, but the bell shape hanging in front of him suddenly became even larger, with a faint posture of covering the sky and the sun.

After the spear accumulated power, it made a buzzing sound of breaking through the air and pierced into the bell.

The bronze bell body did not move, but the bell wall made a clear sound.

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

The space was distorted, without any huge momentum, the bell stopped, the space was quiet for a while, and then the sound of something breaking was heard.

The spear began to break from the tip, and finally turned into powder and turned into the power of rules again.

Tang Zifeng waved his hand, absorbed the large amount of power of rules, and covered it under the bell.

Qingqing said that good things should not be wasted.

After putting it away, he looked at the fifth feather again, and his brows wrinkled slightly.

Tang Zifeng was evaluating and examining.

The fifth feather was the former director of Xiling, but in fact he was the core descendant of the fifth fairy family. He had a secret deal with Qingqing, but Qingqing seemed to be more passive. Qingqing went to Penglai for further studies and expressed vigilance against this person many times.

The above inferences made it easy for Tang Zifeng to come to a conclusion:

a threat to Qingqing = an enemy.

He waved his hand again, and the bell dissipated, turning into a spear, exactly the same as the one that Fifth Wing had materialized before.

Tang Zifeng looked at Fifth Wing and said, "You are very powerful. But you know nothing about the way of weapons."

"Give it back to you."

Unlike the previous grand momentum, the spear flew towards Fifth Wing calmly. Because he did not see any threat, Fifth Wing looked at it coldly, and then turned his eyes to look at the spear, which pierced... the space where he was. Fifth Wing disappeared

on the spot.

The spear dissipated, and Tang Zifeng retracted his gaze again, and his eyes fluctuated a little.

"He seems to be the same as Qingqing. I don't know why he is circulating in various holes of rules... It doesn't look like a good thing. Send him out first."

On the other side, five balls of light reappeared in front of Fifth Wing. Obviously, he failed to pass the metal hole of rules.

Tang Zifeng used absolute rules to suppress him and drove him out. From now on, as long as Tang Zifeng stayed inside, he could not go in again.

The Fifth Feather did not look angry at all, and there was even a hint of interest in the corners of his narrow and beautiful eyes.

"...Interesting."

Qin Ruqing received her second mission in the Trial Tower from Armor.

[Mission 2: Endure the extreme pain that exceeds the limits of the body and soul, and persist for no less than ten breaths.]

Qin Ruqing's first reaction to this mission was: Is there really no problem with the style of this Trial Tower?

The extreme pain that exceeds the limits of the body and soul, and persists for ten breaths? What's the difference between this and asking someone to die?

Qin Ruqing asked Armor: "Does persisting for ten breaths mean the mission is passed?"

Armor: "If Trialist 946 wants to persist for a longer time, it's fine."

Tsk, who would be stupid enough to torture himself like this! What's the point.

Qin Ruqing: "Okay, I'll take this mission."

Although the two missions so far were a bit weird and annoying, for Qin Ruqing, the second mission was actually easier than the first.

It was nothing, because he had done too many stupid things, which made him more able to tolerate pain than others. With the cockroach-like recovery ability blessed by his Taoist body, Qin Ruqing rolled up his sleeves without hesitation: Whatever you have, just bring it on!

However, when the so-called extreme pain that exceeded the limits of his body really happened to him, Qin Ruqing's first reaction was:

Sorry, I boasted too early...

It really hurts!

Soon after she accepted the task, she heard the sound of thunder in the Trial Tower. Qin Ruqing was in a relaxed mood at the time, thinking:

Oh, so they are using fatigue to strike, that's nothing, she has experienced thunder tribulation before when she was forming a pill, and it was a very strong nine-nine thunder tribulation, but it didn't kill her.

As a result, the thunder tribulation in the Trial Tower just struck her and knocked her to the ground.

She only had time to scream in pain, and then her limbs began to twitch in an unpresentable way. In the end, she couldn't even scream in pain.

It felt like all the cells in her body, all the spiritual power and energy were used to resist the pain and feel the pain. She didn't have the energy to do anything else, even just to scream in pain.

Qin Ruqing opened her mouth unconsciously, and a dry, almost silent, hoarse sound emanated from her throat due to the pain.

The blue will-o'-the-wisp in the holes in the armor's eyes just looked at Qin Ruqing lying quietly on the ground. The lightning that struck her had not disappeared.

She had to endure the pain of the electric shock from the lightning for at least ten breaths.

Time was infinitely stretched, and after ten breaths, the head of the armor turned, and its sights fell on Qin Ruqing... She hadn't gotten up yet? But the armor's induction told her that this person was not unconscious or dead.

Ten breaths.

Eleven breaths.

Twelve breaths.

...

The "corpse" lying silently on the ground suddenly jumped up, and soon fell to the ground again.

Qin Ruqing cried out, "It hurts so much that I can't even stand steadily."

She looked up at the armor and said, "Have I passed the mission?"

The armor answered her first, "I passed."

Then the will-o'-the-wisp flashed and said, "You lasted for twelve breaths."

Qin Ruqing raised her voice, "Yes, because I found that the blue pill I took before has a paralyzing effect. If it weren't for it, I could only last ten breaths. But with this little pill, I thought I might as well hold on a little longer. Maybe if I hold on for two more seconds, I'll get some mysterious reward!"

After Qin Ruqing finished speaking, she looked at the armor with full expectation.

Unfortunately, the armor had an outer shell, so the meaning in her starry eyes could not be seen. Qin Ruqing had no choice but to cough and said bluntly: "Well, sir, I have persisted for twelve breaths. Is there any extra rating or reward?"

Armor: "You are indeed the one who persisted the longest. Before you, there was only one person who persisted for eleven breaths."

Oh, there is actually someone as stupid as her? ——She dared to be so willful on the one hand because she could really bear it, and on the other hand, it was her intuition based on her years of experience in taking advantage of others.

She always felt that the longer she persisted in this task, the better.

Qin Ruqing asked with great interest: "Who is the one who persisted for eleven breaths?"

Armor: "The fifth feather, Trial Tower number 111."

The air was quiet for a while, and Qin Ruqing sighed, "111, this person is crazier than me!"

"Interesting."

Qin Ruqing felt her paralyzed body gradually regain consciousness - chatting with armor was not nonsense, mainly because she couldn't do anything just now because she couldn't move at all.

Qin Ruqing pinched her skin as if she had felt something, and was surprised to find that her skin was now very tough and had an indescribable texture.

After groping for a while, Qin Ruqing actually took out a dagger from her purse. Looking at its blade with a cold light, she knew that this was a sharp weapon that could cut hair with a blow.

Qin Ruqing nodded in satisfaction, suddenly raised the dagger high, and then stabbed it hard against her arm.

There was a clear "duang" sound of metal hitting each other, and Qin Ruqing was shocked to find that the tip of the dagger was actually tilted.

"Fuck!" Qin Ruqing looked at the dagger and then at her arm, and exclaimed in surprise: "I am invulnerable now!"

Qin Ruqing's quick-witted mind instantly reminded her of the plate of ancient demon king's blood she had drunk before. Before, she only felt refreshed after drinking it, and she didn't feel too much improvement in her physical fitness. But now, Qin Ruqing dared to pat her chest and guarantee that even if she went out and said that she was a physical cultivator, no one would believe her.

"I understand. The Demon King's blood essence before was like taking a powerful pill, but the medicinal power was stored in the body and was not fully activated until the thunder tribulation that lasted for twelve breaths fell. It was like a perfect Maillard reaction, and the medicinal power was finally fully activated. Then my current physique was refined."

So, the style of the Xuanming Rule Cave is to actively offer wool to the testers to take advantage of it?

Qin Ruqing rolled her eyes, looked at the armor, and suddenly sighed. She even chatted with the armor.

"Hey, sir, although you don't have a physical body, looking at this heroic figure, you must have been an important person when you were alive, right? Can you tell me how many tasks I need to complete in order to leave the Trial Tower?"

The armor with a heroic figure was probably the first time he met someone who took the initiative to chat with him. He was stunned for a while before replying:

"The number of tasks that each trialist has to complete is determined based on their performance and is not the same."

Oh, that is to say, it varies from person to person.

Qin Ruqing nodded, looked at the armor, and chuckled: "Well, sir, you know, the person who passes the trial tower, that is, the last person to leave, can get any reward?"

...

There was a moment of silence. It was probably the first time that the armor encountered such an absurd question in his life.

After a while, the armor replied: "Please wait."

Still wait? Don't ask for instructions from the higher-ups.

Qin Ruqing waved his hand quickly, "I just asked casually, I don't really want to know."

Deep in the Immortal Tomb, a vague voice sighed and said, "I didn't expect the descendant of Daozu to be so temperamental..."

Another voice said, "What descendant? It's still unclear whether the inheritance of Daozu exists. I think she suits my taste. It's better to cultivate Xuanming with me to save such a talent."

In the Trial Tower, the ghost fire in the armor suddenly jumped violently, as if it was burning more vigorously than before.

The armor said leisurely, "If the trialer can complete all the tasks perfectly and pass the Trial Tower, he will get a reward-the absolute realm!"

Qin Ruqing heard this answer and nodded in his heart. It was not because of the reward of the Absolute Realm, but because

she had a sudden illusion that this armor seemed to be more alive...
