The old man outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower was surprised, as if he saw something.
"Which peak is this disciple from? He is quite powerful, and a monster comparable to the minor success of bone refining was killed by him so easily."
"What's his physique? No, his physique is not innately supernatural. It's interesting that an ordinary physique can burst out with such strength."
The other four were also keeping an eye on every disciple to prevent any accidents from happening.
The wills of the four people were all extended in the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, so they knew who the old man was talking about.
It was Zhou Qing.
The monster that one faces at the beginning of the monster test must be at the same level as the disciples of Xuan Du.
Zhou Qing has achieved a minor level in bone refining, and the attacking monsters are also at this level.
Although Zhou Qing had just achieved a breakthrough last night and few people knew about it, there was no way he could hide his cultivation level inside the divine artifact, the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, and in front of four Huangquan Chedi realm practitioners. It was immediately identified.
Therefore, in every true transmission qualification test, there will basically be no situation where one can hide one's skills and then use the advantage of the stronger to defeat the weaker and pass the test.
Luo Liuli said at the right time: "I am a disciple of Shuiyue Peak."
"No wonder you, Lord Dan, came to watch today." The old man smiled and said, "This disciple is quite powerful, and he can practice in Shuiyue Peak. His future is bright."
The other young man said, "He killed a monster at the level of Minor Bone Refining with two swords. I'm afraid his strength has already reached the level of Marrow Cleansing."
"With such strength, the test is meaningless to him. He will definitely pass. Dan Jun, why don't we let him pass the test in advance?"
Luo Liuli replied: "Just follow the rules."
"Dan Jun is right. Since he has the ability, he should pass the test with honor. If he is given special privileges, it will only lead to criticism and bring him a stain."
The old man nodded and said:
"I have never seen this disciple before. He must have just started learning recently, right? Then he can be considered to have started learning with some skills."
"I wonder what this young man's background is? With such strength and such a deep foundation, he must be from a very important family, right?"
It is not uncommon for people to enter the profession with an artistic talent.
However, it is quite rare to find someone who has top-notch talent, strength, and foundation to start with.
After all, most of these talented practitioners are true disciples of other sects, so how could they possibly come to Xuandu Temple?
Unless this young man was a casual cultivator before.
But would a casual cultivator have such a level? The young man laughed and said, "Old Hai, you are wrong."
"You have been staying at Haizang Peak for many years and have ignored worldly affairs. You may not know that this young man came from a small mountain town in Tianzhou. He received his enlightenment in a small martial arts hall there and has cultivated himself to this point."
Even a few inner disciples knew that Shuiyue Peak had one more disciple, let alone big shots like them.
Unless they are isolated like that old man Hai, the top leaders of Xuandu will definitely not miss the news if they are willing.
The main reason is that Zhou Qing is also involved in the Tianyue City incident, and there are many people who are interested in him.
"A small town in the mountains, cultivated alone?" Hai Lao's expression changed. Is he really a casual cultivator? As for the little warrior, he ignored him.
What level can a martial arts school in a small mountain town have? How could it be possible that such disciples were trained because of them?
Finally, Ebi sighed.
"Young man, this is a great opportunity..."
He didn't say anything else. The young man just smiled and watched the interior of the Ten Thousand Demons Tower. Ermu didn't say a word from beginning to end.
Luo Liuli's expression did not change at all. She seemed to be in a different world from the other three people. She was just staring at Zhou Qing to make sure he was safe.
This test was carried out by Ermu and the other two.
But considering Luo Liuli's status, no one would deny her this face.
Anyway, it is impossible to change the result, so the rest is up to you.
…
The body of the one-eyed monster fell to the ground with a loud bang, then began to melt, and then turned into a pool of blood. In the end, even the blood seeped into the black ground.
"Minor success in bone refining... The strength of this monster is about the same as that of a normal warrior, but I don't know what its so-called strange methods are."
At this moment, Zhou Qing suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and a one-eyed monster similar to the one just now swooped down from the sky, with a murderous aura in his face.
Zhou Qing raised his sword to strike, but he saw something and forced himself to change his move, striking directly behind him.
"when!"
A black light hit the Taibai sword, making a crashing sound.
The monster that fell from the sky had disappeared. It was clearly just an illusion, and the real monster was not far behind Zhou Qing! Seeing that the black light failed to succeed, the monster roared and then disappeared. After a few breaths, four monsters attacked Zhou Qing from four directions.
But Zhou Qing just glanced at it and ignored it all. Taibai chopped from bottom to top, and the sword energy was like a rainbow!
"bump!"
The two pieces of the body fell suddenly to the ground, and Zhou Qing dodged to avoid the dirty blood.
The four monsters also disappeared, still phantoms.
"Illusion? Or projection ability? And the way to disappear, is it invisibility? Can it also spit out rays from the mouth?"
Zhou Qing’s mind raced, is this the monster’s special ability?
If it is the first time you encounter it, then it does have a certain effect of surprise.
However, if one's intuition is sharp enough, or one's mental strength is strong enough, or one's eyes have some special abilities, one can be able to see through this ability. It is definitely not unsolvable.
Lu Yuanyuan only said that Zhou Qing should not be caught off guard, but she did not think that Zhou Qing would fail here.
“Boom boom boom!”
The sound of iron hooves trampling the ground was heard, and this time two centaur-like monsters suddenly ran out from nowhere.
The lower body of the horse has no hair, but is covered with black scales. The two palms of the upper body are sharp blades, there is a pair of horse eyes on the face, and the ears are long and pointed.
The strength of their aura is similar to that of the one-eyed monster just now. They are two monsters comparable to the small success of the Bone Refining Realm.
But Zhou Qing felt exactly the same, disgusting.
What kind of race is this...
Even as his thoughts raced, Zhou Qing did not stop his movements and took the initiative to face the monster, as fast as a shadow.
The sword light was cold, the sword energy was rampant, and murderous aura was overflowing. After a few ups and downs, the two halves of the horse body and the two halves of the human body fell to the ground with a bang and melted into the ground again.
Zhou Qing was not given time to rest. This time, he killed three monsters directly. They were in another form, purely human, and walked like humans. They were still at the level of minor success in bone refining.
But after the fight, Zhou Qing discovered that among the three monsters there was a guy with special abilities!
Unfortunately, although he is insidious, he can't cause any trouble in the face of the absolute gap in strength.
But after facing the special abilities of this monster twice, Zhou Qing also discovered something.
These abilities are not like the human race's martial arts or Taoist magic, but more like... talents? Because when these abilities are activated, the fluctuations are completely different from using martial arts and Taoist magic.
After the three monsters were killed, four more monsters appeared. This time the monsters had eight eyes, eight arms, and eight legs, and were extremely weird.
An ordinary warrior facing the siege of practitioners of the same level, let alone four, will probably be defeated at the level of the special one-eyed monster. A good one can last until the level of the two centaur monsters, and then be knocked down.
But now the people in the Ten Thousand Demons Tower are different. Each of them is an inner disciple of Xuandu, and one of the best among them.
They are either among the top ten in each peak, or come from well-known peaks. Their strength is extraordinary among their peers.
The siege that independent cultivators cannot face is not an insurmountable obstacle for them.
At least no one has been eliminated so far.
Of course, no one else can clear the level as fast as Zhou Qing. The fastest of them is still at the level with two monsters. None of them is like Zhou Qing, who can easily reach the level with four monsters and be far ahead.
Four monsters with eight eyes and eight arms and legs surrounded Zhou Qing and beat him up, but they were chopped into several pieces in an instant, and their corpses were scattered all over the ground.
This time, the bodies of the monsters haven't melted yet, and new monsters have emerged, so naturally the number has increased by one more.
This is the test of the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons. The number of opponents you face will increase as you progress through the levels.
One monster, two, three or even more.
When a certain number is reached, the level of the monsters will be upgraded, allowing you to fight against monsters of higher levels, but the number will be reset.
Five strange-looking monsters came roaring and charging towards them. They looked extremely ferocious. If they appeared in the mortal world, they would be enough to become an enduring anecdote and be used by countless adults to scare disobedient children.
But in Zhou Qing's eyes, they were just ugly toys.
Including the four masters outside the tower, they all felt that these monsters were weak and helpless in front of Zhou Qing.
Five monsters were killed on the spot, and six more monsters rushed out, trampling on the corpses of their companions.
But this level of bone refining was too weak for Zhou Qing. There were only six of them, so they couldn't make any waves and died quickly and cleanly.
The next second, the number of monsters that appeared changed, and there was only one, but this also meant that its strength had increased.
As expected, the strength of his aura is already comparable to that of a master of bone refining.
After being besieged by six monsters of the same level, you will enter another difficult level.
Zhou Qing thought to himself: "Six... This may not be the limit of those most elite inner disciples of Xuandu Temple."
This is an assessment after all. It is impossible to endlessly use monsters of the same level to drain the disciples' physical strength and true essence/soul power.
But even if the monster had reached a higher level, it would still be useless in front of Zhou Qing.
From the initial stage of bone refining to the minor success in bone refining, this was a huge improvement for Zhou Qing, making his basic physical quality comparable to that of marrow cleansing warriors.
Even though he had just entered the realm of bone refining and would not feel any pressure facing monsters of a higher realm, the scene that could be presented when a marrow cleansing warrior faced a warrior who had achieved great success in bone refining was completely different from the scene when a warrior who had achieved great success in bone refining faced a warrior who had achieved minor success in bone refining.
The former can crush more easily and violently because there is a huge gap in realm.
In fact, when practicing to this stage, Zhou Qing did feel that the gap between each realm was widening.
In the past, when he had just entered the minor stage of internal organ development, the basic quality of his physical body was not weak when he first started to refine his bones.
But now he has made some progress in bone refining, and in this aspect he can only be compared with the marrow cleansing warriors. It can only be said that he has barely reached the bottom line of the marrow cleansing warriors.
This is not just a problem that Zhou Qing faces alone. All the geniuses in the world are like this. The closer they are to the Yin God's True Blood, the more difficult it becomes to make a significant leap in basic qualities.
As he was thinking, the monster that had achieved great success in bone refining had already died. Another monster was coming from behind, but it must have special abilities.
Sure enough, when Zhou Qing slashed him with his sword, the blood spurted out and exploded, spreading like mist.
Zhou Qing only took one sniff to sense something was wrong.
poisonous!
Outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, Hai Lao's attention was mostly on Zhou Qing. Seeing Zhou Qing's heroic performance, admiration appeared in his eyes.
At this time, the young man said, "I am somewhat interested in this young man, but it is really meaningless for him to face these monsters with his strength. Why don't we give him a few more rounds of monsters?"
"Of course, the requirements for him to pass the test are the same as those for other disciples. Even if the monsters that appear after him defeat him, it will not affect his successful passing of the test. What do you think, Dan Jun?"
"No need." Luo Liuli refused directly.
Even if it does not affect Zhou Qing's ability to pass the test, it is undoubtedly a form of targeting.
If she wasn't here, there would be no solution, but since she was here, could it be possible that the disciples of Shuiyue Peak would be targeted? The young man raised his eyebrows, thinking that Luo Liuli was in the way. If she hadn't appeared here today, wouldn't he have been able to easily arrange this harmless little thing?
He would not change the result of Zhou Qing passing the test, but adding a few more rounds of monsters would not have any impact.
Unfortunately, even though he was the official examiner and Luo Liuli was just a spectator, he couldn't act on his own.
"How about this? Give Zhou Qing a few more rounds of monsters, and I'm willing to compensate him." The young man said:
"It has been many years since such an outstanding foreign genius joined our Xuandu Temple. I am indeed very curious."
"And the better his performance in the Ten Thousand Demons Tower today, the more attention the temple will pay to him when we report to the temple and ask for his true teachings to be assessed."
Hai Lao and Ermu looked at the young man in surprise. Hai Lao smiled and said, "Tang Tian, are you interested in this boy and want to take him as your disciple? He is from Shuiyue Peak and I'm afraid he won't go to your Tongxuan Peak."
"But Dan Jun, what Tang Tian said does make some sense. The better Zhou Qing performs now, the more attention the temple will pay to him in the future. A genius like him should be different from others."
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
Ermu didn't say anything, otherwise he was afraid that Luo Liuli would think that he was targeting Zhou Qing because of past grudges.
Luo Liuli thought about it, but finally refused.
"no."
She didn't want to cause Zhou Qing unnecessary trouble because of her own reasons, as that would go against the vision of her master and junior sister.
Tang Tian frowned slightly, already angry in his heart, but after thinking for a while, he didn't vent his anger and continued, "Is it okay? I think you should ask Zhou Qing. He is the person involved. You can't deprive him of the opportunity to show his talent and strength for the first time since he came to Xuandu Temple."
Hai Lao nodded, "That makes sense."
At this point, Luo Liuli also felt that there was some truth in what she said. She refused, but perhaps Zhou Qing herself had different ideas?
So after Zhou Qing killed that special monster, Luo Liuli sent him a message and told him about this matter.
"Arrange a few more rounds of monsters for me to see how strong I am, and compensate me afterwards?"
Zhou Qing was a little confused and didn't understand what the Tongxuan Peak Master meant. After asking Luo Liuli and making sure that their conversation would not be heard by others, Zhou Qing answered straightforwardly:
"Promise him. There is no need to refuse. Now that I have come to Xuandu Temple, I cannot hide my true strength any longer."
When he came to Xuandu Temple, he didn't come here to develop quietly, but to shine brightly.
You have joined a top-notch Taoist school that is top-notch in all aspects, but you are still hiding your shortcomings and pretending to be a pig. Aren't you sick?
In this relatively stable environment, only by showing yourself as much as possible can you get the greatest attention and training.
If you pretend to be a pig here, you will only become a real pig in the end.
He came here just to blind everyone's eyes! If he really wanted to develop in a low-key manner, why didn't he stay in Black Cloud Town and practice quietly for decades before coming out?
"But since the Master of Tongxuan Peak is willing to pay to watch, please help me get a high price."
Zhou Qing conveyed his request to Luo Liuli.
Want to see?
You have to pay extra.
He didn't want to miss an opportunity to show himself, and now someone was paying him to do so, which was really great!
Luo Liuli blinked and felt that Zhou Qing's tone became a little more eager when he mentioned asking for a high price.
Because Luo Liuli was communicating with him, no new demons appeared here in Zhou Qing.
After getting Zhou Qing's reply, Luo Liuli turned to Tang Tian and said, "A quasi-Yellow Springs Dao technique or a quasi-earth-level martial art, I can agree to this matter."
“…”
Tang Tian and the other two were speechless.
What kind of black heart does one have to dare to say such a thing?
Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning when you go out? Luo Liuli's expression was still cold, without any feeling of shame.
Sorry, she has never had this kind of emotion since she was a child.
Tang Tian's expression was very cold, and his anger doubled. He was simply being slaughtered like a pig! "Impossible, he's just a bone-refining warrior." Tang Tian flatly refused and said:
"At most I can give him a divine artifact or a Yuanwu weapon."
To Tang Tian, an item of this level is just a weed, and he doesn't feel bad about giving it away.
"Shuiyue Peak is not short of these things, a divine weapon or a real weapon."
"Not even one divine material is possible!"
"No compensation for a level lower than the Yin God True Blood level."
Luo Liuli was also very determined and unwilling to give in.
She knew that Zhou Qing was very wealthy. After all, Zhou Qing gave Lu Qingmo the Huangquan Pill and the Tongtian Flower, which were two priceless treasures.
So she didn't want to bring back some ordinary things for Zhou Qing as compensation.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense; Ermu and the other man pretended to pay attention to the Ten Thousand Demons Tower and did not interrupt.
Tang Tian's chest was rising and falling noticeably, and his face looked a little unhappy.
A master does not necessarily have the demeanor of a master.
The so-called demeanor of a master refers more to the attitude that a master shows when facing a weak person, because they occupy an absolute dominant and ruling position, and of course they are full of demeanor.
But masters are also human beings. When they are with masters of the same level, they naturally act like human beings and have all the necessary emotions.
Unless one has a personality like Luo Liuli, or has practiced some special skills and become unlike a human.
Tang Tian is neither of them, so he is very angry now, but he did not reject Luo Liuli immediately, which means he is thinking about it.
A genius who has cultivated to this level on his own, now with the power of the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, is indeed my best opportunity to observe him...
"A true blood martial art."
There was a hint of grit in Tang Tian's words.
Among the divine materials, divine weapons/real weapons, etc., he chose compensatory martial arts.
For Tang Tian, this was the lowest cost.
If a divine material is given to him, he will have one less, but for knowledge-based treasures such as martial arts, he can copy one and still own it, so it is not too much of a loss.
"Okay, I want the original."
Luo Liuli readily agreed and informed Zhou Qing directly.
Zhou Qing, who was resting in the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, was stunned.
Hiss, a true blood martial arts as compensation? Is this Tongxuan Peak Master so generous? Or is Luo Liuli bargaining too hard?
Zhou Qing originally thought that at most he could get something that could cleanse the marrow of the saints. For him, items of this level were apparently treasures of a higher level.
He was quite satisfied with the treasure of the Holy Marrow Cleansing. After all, it would be worthwhile to waste it.
But I never thought I could obtain the True Blood Martial Arts...
The master of Tongxuan Peak is a good person.
After the negotiation outside the tower, new monsters finally appeared here.
The Ten Thousand Demons Tower itself is under the control of Xuandu Temple. When to release the monsters and when to suppress them so that they cannot cause trouble is naturally decided by people outside.
Two monsters that had achieved great bone refining skills rushed over and Zhou Qing swung his sword with all his might, without holding back.
The next thing he thought about was not how to pass the test, but how to present himself.
That's how it should be.
This is a test for qualification to receive the true teachings. Zhou Qing's strength is completely comparable to the real and complete true teachings of a major sect. The so-called qualification test is nothing more than a formality for him.
Zhou Qing had a clear understanding of this from the beginning.
If Zhou Qing's current strength found the qualification test extremely thrilling and difficult, then considering all the existing Xuan Du true teachings, Zhou Qing had reason to suspect that they had taken a backdoor when they took this test.
But now it's different.
He will try to touch his own limits!
He only did one thing, killing, and kept killing until he was exhausted! Two bone-refining demons were chopped down by the sword, and then three, and four...
Because Luo Liuli and the others took some time to discuss, and Zhou Qing encountered additional monsters, some people were rescued from the Ten Thousand Demons Tower later.
Those who came out of the tower could see lines of words in the sky outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower.
First place, Shuiyue Peak, Zhou Qing, second round, level 6.
Second place, the ninth peak, Qi Yunyuan, the first level of the second round.
Third place, Chunqiu Peak, Fang Yuan, first round, seventh level.
Fourth place…
Those words actually ranked the performance of the disciples in the Ten Thousand Demons Tower.
Although there will only be a maximum of six monsters in each round, because the second level has a monster with special abilities, the number is the same as the first level, so there are seven rounds in total.
After seeing this ranking list, all the disciples who left the Ten Thousand Demons Tower were dumbfounded.
What's going on? What the hell is the sixth level of the second round?
How could this person be so far ahead of the second place? Also, hasn't the second round of the Ten Thousand Demons Tower test ended yet?
Every disciple who left the Ten Thousand Demons Tower had the same expression after seeing the list.
Impossible, absolutely impossible! Is there something wrong with this world?
On the list, Zhou Qing's information changed very quickly. Under the complicated gazes of many people, it jumped from the sixth level of the second round to the seventh level, and then changed to the first level of the third round...
As if to make them understand it more clearly, Zhou Qing's cultivation level was also added.
First place, Zhou Qing from Shuiyue Peak, minor success in bone refining, first level of the third round.
After the information changed like this, the originally noisy space suddenly fell into absolute silence, and everyone's eyes were imprinted on the first position like a magnet attracted by a magnet.
As for the people behind, no one has paid attention to them anymore, the gap is so big that no one will pay attention.
Second, third? Just dust in the corner!
When you enter the third level after reaching the minor success level of Bone Refining, you should face monsters at the Marrow Cleansing level, right?
Outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, there was complete silence, and someone kept rubbing his eyes.
No, who can tell us why such a person would come to take the genuine qualification assessment with us?
