After waiting for a while, seeing that no monsters appeared behind, Zhou Qing knew that the third round was over.

But this also suited his wishes.

If he had used all his tricks, it would be fine to continue to pass the level, but there was no need for that.

Up to this point, the performance has been perfect and no one can find fault with it.

Means like the destruction of both body and soul are real trump cards, and the fewer people know about them, the better.

Zhou Qing recalled his performance in the past three rounds and nodded secretly.

If he had to give himself a score, he would give himself ninety-nine points.

The remaining one point was given to the golden finger that had been helping him.

After all, it's 99 points of talent and hard work, plus 1 point of opportunity.

Hai Lao said: "Since this is the end, let him come out."

"Not yet." Ermu shook his head and refused, "Ei Lao, you forgot that Shuiyue Peak Zhou Qing applied for a dual test of martial arts and soul."

"He stopped at the third round and the third level. This is his martial arts test result. He still has to go through the soul test."

"..." Hai Lao was slightly startled and looked at Zhou Qing.

"This young man's performance in martial arts was so good that I overlooked his spiritual cultivation."

Zhou Qing's talent and strength in martial arts are so dazzling that he is truly a peerless genius.

When you have preconceived ideas, you will indeed overlook some things.

Well...actually Hai Lao doesn't know the situation of these disciples who are taking the test.

Compared with Ermu, he, as an examiner, was more of a formality, ensuring that no violations of the rules occurred during the test.

Ermu was responsible for all the preparations before the test.

"With such an outstanding talent in martial arts, he has also cultivated his soul." Hai Lao became interested.

"I don't know what his soul talent is like. It can't be as good as his martial arts talent, right?"

Ermu replied expressionlessly: "According to the information collected in the temple, Zhou Qing should have inherited the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Seal from Lu Qingmo, and has successfully cultivated it."

Hai Lao was silent. He naturally knew that the Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire Seal had caused quite a stir in Xuandu Temple.

But he didn't expect that this young man with extraordinary talent in martial arts could actually master peerless Taoist magic.

This already proves a lot.

"Young people... can be called."

Ebi uttered these four words once again, and they meant it sincerely.

Cultivating peerless Taoist magic does not guarantee that one can reach the pinnacle, but it definitely reflects that a cultivator’s current potential is very good.

And if this person is also practicing both soul and martial arts, and has outstanding talents...

His possibility of becoming a truly strong man is definitely much greater than that of others.

Hai Lao was really filled with emotion. With the true teachings of Xuan Du, there will be one more fierce dragon crossing the river.

Although the debate on whether the soul is the basis and the body is the supplement, or the body is the part and the soul is the supplement, or whether both are equally important has never ended in the cultivation world.

But there is one thing that people have a common understanding of.

If the dual cultivation of the soul and martial arts can be perfectly coordinated and complement each other, then both the potential and the possibility of becoming a strong person in the future are generally the greatest among the three situations.

Therefore, it is vaguely clear which of the three paths is the correct one.

But why do some people still refuse to admit it, and still insist that only one path is correct? Do you expect a cultivator who only cultivates the soul and not the body to admit that the body is superior to the soul? To admit that both are equally important?

Some things, some truths, are not incomprehensible, but simply cannot be understood and cannot be acknowledged.

Although it is the right thing, it is indeed contrary to my own interests and path, so it can only be wrong.

Truth and facts are not important. What is important is the stance and where I stand is important.

All the flesh and blood on the ground melted away, not even a trace of blood remained.

Zhou Qing also received a notice asking him to prepare for the test of his soul.

Zhou Qing was prepared for this. After all, this was how Luo Liuli and he applied when they signed up for the test.

The two tests are separate. Even if Zhou Qing fails to pass the soul test, it will not affect his passing of the martial arts test. He has also obtained the qualification for the true teaching test.

The reason why one has to go through the trouble of undergoing a soul test is because it concerns the resources and treatment after being promoted to the true teachings.

If both paths are passed down, then although it is impossible for Xuandu Temple to reward one heavenly martial arts and one heavenly art at the same time, the other cultivation resources will be much richer than the true teachings of only practicing one path.

For example, the inner disciple benefits Zhou Qing received last month included Qi and Blood Pills, Yuan Crystals, and Qi Gathering Incense, both of which were included.

If you are just an inner disciple who practices martial arts alone, then of course you will not have the Qi Gathering Incense, and it will be useless to you. Or if you practice both martial arts but hide the other one, no resources will be bestowed upon you.

Similarly, even after being promoted to the true master, a martial arts disciple will not be given many exclusive soul resources. At most, he will be given some things to strengthen his spirit and practice martial arts.

For those who major in martial arts and minor in souls, but whose souls fail to pass the qualification test, the temple will continue to support you in dual cultivation after you are promoted to the true transmission, and you can also obtain soul resources, but they cannot be compared with martial arts resources, and you will not enjoy the treatment of the true transmission of souls.

Only if both tests are passed at this time, can you enjoy the treatment of double transmission in the future. Of course, the transmission assessment does not need to be conducted twice, once is enough.

It is impossible to ask you to use only physical strength or only spiritual strength during the assessment.

The treatment of double-transmission of the true teachings and the resources excluding some overlaps are almost double. How could Zhou Qing refuse such a great benefit?

Every dual-path true disciple is the envy of other true disciples, because Xuandu Temple gives so much.

This is Xuandu Temple. We will not be stingy just because you need too many resources. We are just afraid that you do not have the ability to get more resources from the sect.

You will be treated according to your performance.

You don't have to hide your talents here. Some secrets must not be revealed, but if you have talents, you should show them.

Talent is the key to everything, it is a pass that can be cashed in!

Zhou Qing's soul left his body, and then a light shield automatically appeared near his body, protecting him tightly.

Seeing Zhou Qing's actions, all the disciples outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower finally came back to their senses and were in an uproar.

"What is he doing?"

"This Zhou Qing is actually a cultivator?! Judging from his cultivation level, he is probably in the late stage of Sun Breeding, which is higher than his martial arts cultivation?!!"

"Is he going to undergo a soul test now? Is a true disciple of the dual path going to be born today?"

"How is this possible!?"

"Yes, it's impossible, absolutely impossible!"

“…”

No matter whether they were speaking or not, everyone couldn't believe what they saw.

The talented warrior who had just achieved a small success in bone refining and killed two marrow-washing monsters, was actually a cultivator whose soul realm was higher than his own martial arts skills?

This is totally unfair!

When the girl in linen saw this scene, she clenched her fists, and suddenly a desire and yearning arose in her heart.

"If I could have such a talent..."

The gentle smile on Qi Yunyuan's face could no longer be maintained, and he looked a little gloomy.

"There is actually a soul test, and it is still the late stage of the day tour..."

Qi Yunyuan was a pure warrior. After seeing this scene, his thoughts were shaken a little.

This kind of person, a fellow practitioner of the same path, can I ever compare to him after I have been promoted to the true disciple and rebuilt my foundation?

Qi Yunyuan recalled the scenes of meeting Zhou Qing, then his eyes lit up slightly and he discovered the blind spot.

"When I observed him outside Wangchen Palace, this fellow named Zhou Qing was probably already in his twenties. Although he was practicing both Daos at this age, his martial arts talent was only at the minor level of bone refining, and his Dao was only at the late stage of soul..."

"His current strength is indeed strong, but his talent in cultivation is too poor. He can only show off his courage for a short time."

After thinking about this, Qi Yunyuan felt relaxed again and felt that his future was still promising.

He had only achieved some success in bone refining at the age of twenty-two or twenty-three. This kind of talent in cultivation was at the bottom of the list in the true tradition of martial arts.

Even logically speaking, it is impossible for this kind of talent to be promoted to the true teachings.

What kind of combat power you can exert in a certain realm is important, but the speed of cultivation is equally important.

Become the king of the same realm? I will quickly cultivate to a higher realm, and then crush you with the realm advantage!

To be honest, judging from age alone, Zhou Qing is indeed older than these disciples.

Among these outstanding people in the inner sect of Xuandu, there are not many who are over 20 years old, and they all have relatively high cultivation. Those who are in the Bone Refining Realm, not to mention those like Zhou Qing who have surpassed him by three years.

Zhou Qing didn't know what people outside thought, nor did he care.

He had only been an inner sect disciple of Xuandu for three days and didn't know those people, so why should he care about what they thought?

Now Zhou Qing is constantly killing the monsters that are pouring out one after another. The test of souls has begun. These monsters are also in soul state and are in the same realm as Zhou Qing.

But the cultivators who were not peerless geniuses in the late stage of the day tour were too weak for Zhou Qing.

Apart from instant kill, there are no other two words that can describe the current situation of his battle with the monster.

After clearing the first round of souls, the second round is the monsters of the perfect day tour, which is still not enough.

There is still a difference between completing a day trip and achieving ultimate bone refining.

On the road of martial arts, the ultimate of each realm is strictly speaking not an independent small realm, but more like an extension of the realm of great success.

It is to integrate and strengthen the practice contents of this realm on the basis of great success and push them to an extreme.

Compared with the Great Accomplishment, the improvement in strength in the Extreme Realm is obvious, but it is not considered a small realm gap.

As for the various realms of the Soul Road, the late stage and perfection are more independent of each other, more like two different small realms, which is different from martial arts.

Therefore, the martial arts test will not see different monsters at the level of great and extreme bone refining, but there are souls here.

Zhou Qing had no idea why this difference occurred. He was not yet at the stage to explore the root of the system, nor did he need to.

He is now just a ruthless monster killing machine.

The people outside were noisy at first, but as Zhou Qing cleared level after level, round after round, they returned to their silence.

The meanings revealed by their expressions are unified and similar.

impossible.

Is this still a human being? Why would we take the qualification test with such a person?

Also, who just said that we should watch Zhou Qing's battle? Is this something that people of their strength can watch? What a crappy suggestion! It's really harmful!

Tang Tian said: "He hasn't used the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Seal yet."

His expression was somewhat subtle and difficult to describe.

Ermu pondered for a moment, then said: "In the late stage of Sun Tour, one does not need to rely on Heaven-level Daoism and peerless Daoism. One can kill the demon in the middle stage of Manifestation of Sainthood with only one's own strength plus Yinshen Daoism..."

"Generally, this only happens to those who have practiced the root method and have extraordinary talents."

The innate special soul refers to the special case like the Yun family's Juezhen God.

After thinking for a while, Ermu added: "And it must be cultivated in the major Taoist sects, and from a young age, various treasures that can strengthen the body and soul and forge a more perfect foundation are used to achieve this."

Tang Tian said quietly, "If you want to kill a monster that has just entered the marrow cleansing stage at the level of minor bone refining without relying on Tianwuxue or peerless magic skills, the requirements are similar to what Palace Master Er said."

"And this Zhou Qing is neither an innate alien soul nor an innate alien body. His origin is just an ordinary origin."

Hai Lao fell into deep thought, "Is he really not an immortal seed cultivated by some top Taoist sect?"

Luo Liuli didn't say anything, but she was happy in her heart.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Junior sister picked up a treasure.

The so-called innate different souls or innate different bodies, such people are born with supernatural powers that ordinary people do not have. Their souls and bodies are profound. Once they embark on the path of cultivation, their starting point will be higher than other practitioners.

But it does not mean that every innate soul or innate body, on the premise that they have practiced root methods or secret martial arts, can exert the same strength.

Can an innate divine being who has been trained in Xuandu Temple since childhood and grown up in a pile of treasures be compared with a wild innate divine being who has no resources? If the various resources are not enough or there are no resources at all, then even if a cultivator with an innate soul in the late stage of Sun Travel and has cultivated the root method, without extraordinary Taoist techniques, his strength is at most at the early stage of Manifestation.

It is absolutely impossible to reach the realm of the middle stage of manifestation of the saint.

Innate talent and skills are important, but the cultivation of various acquired treasures is equally important.

Otherwise, why is it said that only these major forces can discover a person's potential and talents to the greatest extent?

But Zhou Qing’s current situation made them very confused.

It is surprising that someone who does not possess innate supernatural powers can burst out with strength that is not inferior to that of those with innate supernatural powers after practicing root methods or secret martial arts, but it is also acceptable.

Because there are many such extraordinary people in history.

Although the origin is mortal, the talent is too extraordinary and can be compared with innate supernatural powers.

To put it in more fantasy terms, a mortal body is on par with a divine body. It is rare, but it does exist, which shows how amazing the talent is.

But people’s becoming stronger and discovering their talents have their own trajectory and prerequisites.

How can you stay in a small mountain town, where you can't possibly get any decent treasures, and fully explore your potential and lay such a strong foundation? The top Taoist sects spared no expense to cultivate the ultimate true teachings, and you just practiced casually in a wild town and caught up?

Also, what kind of opportunity can allow a young man from a small town to inherit both the unknown root method and the secret martial arts? You kid, don't be too outrageous.

Now Ebi and the others just think it’s outrageous, especially outrageous.

The shock that Lu Qingmo and Bai Tian had suffered in the past was now also felt by these Huangquan Chedi Realm masters.

And because they are more powerful and have higher status, and know more, the impact seems more severe.

Could it be the reincarnation of some ancient great man? Someone had this thought in his mind, which was surprisingly similar to Lu Qingmo's original thought.

This moment is just like that moment.

If it were revealed at this time that Zhou Qing was actually a Taoist seed secretly cultivated by some top Taoist sect, they would think it was normal.

I would only admire his talent, but not be so surprised.

After all, it is still a kind of arrogance, the arrogance of the top Taoist school.

They simply didn't believe that, apart from themselves and other forces of equal stature, any other force could cultivate such talent, let alone a casual cultivator who could cultivate on his own.

After a long silence, seeing that Zhou Qing had already made it to the fifth round, Hai Lao said, "What happened today needs to be reported in detail to Guanzhong, with emphasis on the description. This Zhou Qing deserves attention."

Ermu and Tang Tian nodded. Even if they didn't report it, Luo Liuli would say that there was no point in hiding this matter.

In the Tower of Ten Thousand Demons, the fifth round is a demon in the late stage of manifestation of the saint.

But the monster that appears in the first level is a little different.

Most monsters have strange looks, even those in human form have non-human features, but this monster looks exactly like a human, and its appearance is also extremely beautiful and charming from a human's perspective.

That's right, this is a female monster.

After she appeared, she did not attack Zhou Qing immediately. Instead, she stared with her beautiful eyes wide open and said angrily, "You humans are really evil. We did not provoke you at all, but you captured us, locked us up here, and killed us wantonly."

?

Zhou Qing slowly asked a question. How could this monster be so rational? And could it communicate with him calmly?

but……

Zhou Qing glanced around, then retracted his gaze and sneered in his heart.

It's just a devilish trick.

At the same time, Zhou Qing didn't believe a word the monster said.

Just based on the madness, brutality and bloodthirstiness displayed by monsters, it would be a joke to say that both sides can live in peace after coming into contact with any race.

Zhou Qing could see that the monsters' bloodthirstiness came from the bottom of their hearts and was their nature.

How could this race coexist peacefully with other races? Xuandu Temple didn’t know where the monsters were found, but to say that the monsters didn’t provoke the human race…

Quite a cold joke.

As if she knew what Zhou Qing was thinking, the female monster said:

"This is the nature of monsters. What can we do? Can we be blamed for this?"

"Do monsters deserve to die?!"

"What a joke! You guys shouldn't die. Am I the one who should die?"

So other races are willing to be killed just to satisfy your nature, right? The female monster said again: "If you leave here now, I won't kill you."

"But I have to kill you."

"Why are you, a human, so unreasonable?"

"I'm too lazy to reason with you. You don't deserve to hear it."

The female monster looked angry, then closed her eyes and said, "Then do it. I won't resist. I will prove that we don't deserve to die. This is all your fault. It's your cruelty that has caused the current situation!"

"That would be best."

Zhou Qing laughed, "What do you mean by not resisting? Do you mean the illusion you secretly set up?"

Hearing Zhou Qing's words, the female monster opened her eyes, and the anger on her face disappeared, turning into coldness.

"How did you find out?"

Zhou Qing looked around, his eyes unusually bright.

"you guess?"

Beautiful women are the best at deceiving people, and so are monsters! Under Zhou Qing's gaze, the space around him seemed a little illusory, revealing a sense of unreality.

In addition to the female monster standing opposite him, there was also a shadow outside the illusion, moving slowly in the communication between man and monster, and approaching him.

Zhou Qing estimated that it was the real female monster, and the one talking to him was just an illusion.

The soul and the body are two sides of the same coin. The soul naturally has the same yin-yang eyes as his physical body.

After being strengthened by many treasures, his eyes have gone beyond the category of simple yin-yang eyes.

So Zhou Qing discovered something was wrong at the beginning. The communication between him and the female monster was just to delay time, complete the illusion, and finally launch a fatal attack.

Close your eyes and wait for death?

Oh.

Just a lie.

Before entering the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, Ermu had emphasized several times that we should not hold back on the monsters, as they are killers! Hai Lao and others outside the tower were also somewhat surprised to see Zhou Qing see through the illusion.

"This is a relatively rare phantom demon. I didn't expect that it would not be able to confuse him."

"He should have a way to deal with illusions."

The illusion is not a special ability of the female monster, but a method that all of her tribes have, just like the bone knife and bone armor on the body of the ordinary humanoid monster that Zhou Qing faced in the last round of the martial arts test.

Those phantom monsters with special abilities will be even more terrifying.

The female monster obviously didn't want to guess, and she screamed, but the sound was no longer as pleasant as before, but instead extremely hoarse.

"Die, human race!"

The shadows outside the illusion rushed towards Zhou Qing quickly, and at the same time, he felt dizzy, as if the world was turning upside down.

But Zhou Qing was not afraid. He instantly formed the Earth Fire Seal, and the surging Yin and Yang Fires poured out, causing the illusion to suddenly become shaky, and finally it was broken! The illusionary monster, the illusion method was indeed extremely sophisticated, but that was all.

"it's over."

Outside the tower, Hai Lao spoke, as if predicting something.

Inside the tower, the yin and yang fires filled the entire space, exploding violently.

This female monster didn't even leave any ashes.

Why do people pursue heavenly-level or even peerless skills?

When fighting against opponents of higher levels relying solely on one's own strength and conventional martial arts configuration, it will take a long time to determine the winner.

But the extraordinary Taoist martial arts are enough to make the final decision.

After killing the cunning female monster, Luo Liuli spoke again and ended the next level.

Passing the test is certain, and it is amazing enough.

After receiving the notification, Zhou Qing's soul returned to his body, and then a faint illusory distortion appeared in front of him, the same phenomenon as when he entered the tower.

He stepped through and appeared outside the Ten Thousand Demons Tower, where he was greeted by numerous gazes.

Zhou Qing was a little confused and didn't understand why everyone was looking at him.

Ermu was broadcasting his battle to the outside world without telling him. After he came out, the projection naturally dispersed.

However, the ranking list was still there, and Zhou Qing saw it directly.

The first place is myself, without a doubt.

He looked at the second place, a man named Qi Yunyuan, hmm...

This result seems a bit bad, right? (End of this chapter)
