Seeing the surroundings fall silent again, Cui Shengnan did not hesitate at all and returned to the front of the group.
"alright."
"This is just a minor incident."
"We will now proceed to the second stage of the assessment."
The deep voice echoed in the space, constantly reverberating in everyone's hearts.
Judging from the methods previously displayed by the Misty Sect, both the forces on the Tianqiong Continent and the Qingxuan Continent are well aware that this is a very powerful sect.
I just didn't expect it to be this strong.
After all, the fact that even the Soul Hall doesn't take it seriously speaks volumes.
Many elders from the holy lands have begun to regret not bringing their most outstanding direct disciples with them.
Missing this opportunity would undoubtedly be a huge loss for them.
Who knows when the next mountain-opening assessment will be?
Upon hearing Cui Shengnan's instructions, the disciples who had already obtained the tokens regained their fighting spirit.
After all, everyone knew very well that the stronger the Misty Sect was, the greater the help it would be to them.
"Elder, the tokens have been distributed almost completely."
"Preparations for the forbidden zone can begin now."
Wu Junyan approached Cui Shengnan and spoke softly.
Cui Shengnan glanced at the area and realized that the number of disciples was already much higher than he had expected.
Although the Misty Sect is short of people, it has never needed those useless people; only the most talented can enter.
He gathered spiritual energy in his hand and with a gentle wave, he achieved his goal.
Countless arcs of electricity leaped and flickered across the sky, and the power of the Great Dao surged forth continuously.
A massive field of celestial lightning slowly gathered in everyone's sight.
Endless spiritual waters converge within it.
The terrifying pressure was so intense that even the elders of the holy lands at the Immortal King level felt their scalps tingle.
They were able to cultivate to this stage not because they hadn't undergone the baptism of lightning tribulations, but even the most ordinary lightning tribulation trials were extremely beneficial.
Anyone with discerning eyes can see clearly that the second trial of the Misty Sect, though called an assessment, is actually just a reward for those disciples of the Myriad Races Dojo who passed the first trial.
Looking at the enormous field of immortal lightning that had formed above the gray sky, all the forces present couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
"So this is the work of the Misty Sect? It's absolutely terrifying!"
"Yes! I've never heard of any force that could simulate this lightning tribulation arena before. Even the Emperor-level forces in the Central Saint Domain are far from being able to do this, right?"
"What a joke! You don't actually think those Emperor-level forces in the Holy Central Region can compare to the Misty Sect, do you? Even someone like Soul Slaughter is like an ant in front of the Misty Sect. They don't even take the entire Soul Palace seriously!"
"Damn it, I'm grinding my teeth to dust. If I had known that the Misty Sect had such a strong foundation, I would have just brought those top genius disciples from the Holy Land here. Getting them into the outer sect shouldn't have been a problem, right?"
"Which holy land is so arrogant? They dare to call themselves monstrous disciples in front of the Misty Sect?"
"......"
The disciples in the area who were participating in the assessment were also shocked when they looked at the Immortal Spirit Thunder Field above the Misty Sect.
Having cultivated for so long, many of them are among the most outstanding disciples from various holy lands on both continents. What kind of spectacle haven't they seen?
But during the Misty Sect's inaugural assessment, almost all the disciples felt as if they came from some desolate land.
"The Celestial Thunder Field has been activated."
"We can start preparing now..."
Choi Seung-nam's voice rang out again, and then he turned his gaze back to the crowd.
"I'll just briefly mention this Celestial Lightning Field."
There are five levels in total.
"Man, Earth, Heaven, Spirit, Immortal..."
"As long as you can pass the human level, you'll have passed the test..."
If it were before, they would have been very excited and happy to hear this, since passing the lowest level would have been enough to complete the assessment.
However, having experienced the brutal beating at the Myriad Races Dojo, they have come to understand the true value of this Misty Sect's inaugural assessment.
The simpler the threshold, the more nervous they became.
"No...no, it won't be like that myriad races dojo again, will it?"
"Damn it! No matter what, I have to get through this human-level lightning tribulation, even if it costs me my life!"
"Once I join the Misty Sect, my life will be bright. My sister-in-law is waiting for me at home. I can't give up so easily."
"......"
Although everyone was filled with trepidation, the allure of this ethereal beauty only strengthened the resolve in their eyes.
At the front of the group, Fo Chen and the others were also excited, even though they had lost to Wang Teng in the assessment of the Myriad Races Dojo.
However, this time, the Celestial Lightning Field, while still testing talent and potential, will depend more on one's own will.
This means they still have a chance.
Feeling the immense pressure of the boundless Dao intent, Huo Qingqing couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Even though she had already stepped into the inner sect of the Misty Sect, she still wouldn't give up so easily.
"Minefield open..."
"Everyone, you may begin..."
As Cui Shengnan's voice rang out, hundreds of streams of spiritual energy soared into the sky, directly surging towards the direction of the Immortal Spirit Thunder Field.
As soon as they entered the minefield, the scenery before them completely changed.
The entire sky was shrouded in endless gray, with only rolling thunder above.
Unlike before, the world before them now consisted only of themselves and the others.
No longer being able to see other people's rankings creates a more intense atmosphere, which can also push one's talents to their limits in extreme environments.
'boom--!'
Before everyone could adjust to their surroundings, a thunderous sound rang out.
The deafening roar descended, carrying with it the terrifying power of the Great Dao.
Without the slightest hesitation, everyone unleashed all their spiritual power to resist.
With lightning enveloping their bodies, they understood why Cui Shengnan had said earlier that the Celestial Lightning Field tested their willpower.
The excruciating pain caused many people to kneel down the moment they came into contact with it.
Without a full-force resistance, they would have lost consciousness immediately.
"Holy crap? This is human-level heavenly lightning?"
"This is too outrageous! Just this one move and I'm almost half dead. I wonder how far those freaks from the Myriad Races Dojo will go this time."
"Damn it, I refuse to believe it! What kind of bullshit heavenly thunder can destroy my steel-like martial arts heart? Ridiculous!"
"Ah...help me..."
