Qin Haitian stood in front of the barrier. The moment his fingertips touched the transparent barrier, the ground around him suddenly shook violently.
Ripples like water ripples appeared on the surface of the originally stable barrier, and countless golden runes emerged in the void, forming a complex star map.
"Be careful!" Shui Yingyue suddenly grabbed Lin Chuxue beside her and quickly retreated.
Suddenly, a dark blue crack appeared on the ground beneath everyone's feet, and a violent spatial turbulence gushed out, splitting the team into three.
Qin Qiao'e was surrounded by moonlight, barely protecting Shang Yuyan and Lin Wanqing: "The ancient ban has been triggered! Be careful!"
Qin Qiao'e's strength is related to the fortune of the Human Emperor Palace. With Qin Haitian's brilliant performance in the Xijiang event in recent years, her fortune has become much stronger than before. Now, her cultivation has reached the level of Martial King.
Qin Haitian grabbed Li Qingyue's wrist in the chaos, and the two were sucked into a sudden space vortex.
As the world spun, he saw Shui Yingyue and Lin Chuxue disappear in a beam of light. Qin Qiao'e turned into a moonlight shield and wrapped Shang Yuyan and Lin Wanqing before disappearing in another beam of light.
When his vision became clear again, Qin Haitian found himself standing in the center of the ancient bronze palace. Nine huge pillars engraved with stars surrounded it, and the flowing Milky Way on the dome was projected onto the ground to form a Bagua formation.
The corner of Li Qingyue's plain white skirt was stained with blood, and it was obvious that she had been injured while traveling through space.
At the same time, Qin Haitian also saw his other Taoist companions.
Everyone was safe and sound, which made Qin Haitian feel relieved.
"Master, this... should be a palace left behind by a certain force or some powerful person." Qin Qiao'e's voice suddenly sounded in the sea of consciousness, "Master, be careful, I sense three terrible auras."
Before he finished speaking, the huge pillar on the left collapsed.
Three bronze war puppets walked out of the smoke and dust, with three ancient seal characters "strength", "wisdom" and "heart" engraved on their eyebrows respectively.
The eyes of the leading war puppet glowed red, and the heavy halberd in his hand chopped out with a powerful force, and the air was compressed into ripples visible to the naked eye.
Qin Haitian held Li Qingyue's waist and turned in mid-air, the heavy halberd brushed past her back, plowing a three-foot gully on the stone slab. He drew out the Emperor Sword with his backhand, the sword edge traced a mysterious trajectory, and nine star rays intertwined into a net in the air: "Beidou Locking Immortal Formation!"
The puppet's movements suddenly slowed down, and Shui Yingyue took the opportunity to make a spell, and seven ice spikes condensed from the void and pierced the puppet's joints accurately. However, only white marks were left on the bronze surface. The puppet roared and shattered the ice spikes, and the heavy halberd swept across, bringing up the phantom of the stars.
"This is a star war puppet possessed by an ancient war spirit!" Qin Qiao'e said anxiously, "We must find their energy core!"
Qin Haitian's pupils flashed gold and silver, and his divine eyes penetrated the bronze armor.
In the chest of the third war puppet, he saw a rotating hexagonal crystal.
The sword turned with his body, and the Galaxy Sword turned into a stream of light and went straight to the vital point, but it was blocked by an invisible force field when it was three inches away from the crystal.
On the other side, Shang Yuyan suddenly groaned, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
She had just forced her true energy to move, and now her cultivation level of the first level of Martial King Realm began to backfire under the pressure of the War Puppet.
Yes, she broke through to the Martial King realm some time ago!
Qin Haitian's eyes flashed with determination. He pressed his left hand on her back to transfer his true energy. The sword in his right hand suddenly changed its momentum, and actually activated the galaxy projection on the roof of the hall.
"Starfall of the Infinite Galaxy Sword Technique!"
Thousands of stars gathered at the tip of the sword, and the entire hall suddenly lost gravity. The three war puppets twisted their movements, and the heavy halberds chopped into the air, causing ripples in the space. Qin Haitian seized this momentary flaw, and the sword light penetrated the force field like a butcher cutting a cow, and the six-sided crystal shattered with a sound.
When the last war puppet knelt down, the Milky Way suddenly poured down from the dome. Qin Haitian took all the women into his own cave, then jumped into the stream of light. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the vast sea of stars.
Countless stars form a maze, and each star is interpreting a different rhythm.
"This is the second level, the Wisdom Trial." The figure of Qin Qiao'e, the spirit of the Human Emperor Palace, appeared beside him and reminded him, "We need to crack the Zhoutian Xingdou formation to find the exit."
Qin Haitian frowned slightly, and then activated the Eye of Truth.
"Wait!" He suddenly withdrew his hand, "This star array seems to have been tampered with by someone. This... is a trap!"
Before he finished speaking, three stars on the right suddenly exploded and turned into demonic figures with green faces and fangs. Qin Haitian swung his sword to kill the demonic energy, and his back was soaked with cold sweat. The aura of these demonic figures was actually the same as that of the elders of the Green Demon Sect who had chased them.
"Could it be that the Green Demon Sect is plotting against me?" He wiped the demon blood off the blade with an unsightly look on his face.
Yes, a supreme being, a great emperor, and eleven monarch-level beings of the Green Demon Sect all died in his hands. It is reasonable that the Green Demon Sect will not let him go.
"But how can the Green Demon Sect control such an ancient bronze temple? Or is this just a coincidence? Is the Green Demon Sect a branch of this ancient bronze temple?" Qin Haitian had countless puzzles in his mind at this moment, but now was not the time to think about this. The Eye of Truth could see through all illusions and he could clearly see that where he was was a galaxy, and in the sea of stars there were countless dense invisible rune chains.
When he used his divine eyes to burn the chains, the entire sea of stars began to collapse, and finally condensed into a jade slip that fell into his palm.
"Is this... a fragment of the Qing Emperor Sutra?" Qin Haitian's consciousness swept over the jade slip, and he suddenly had a splitting headache. Countless images flooded into his mind: the fairy palace collapsed, the earth veins boiled, and the nine immortals joined forces to set up a barrier.
The third level of the Dao Heart Test came without any warning.
When Qin Haitian regained consciousness, he found himself standing in the Hundred Swords Sect. He was having a meal with his Taoist companions and chatting happily. The warm scene suddenly turned bloody, and the Green Demon Sect monks broke in, and the scene of the Taoist companions being pierced by long swords appeared.
"No!" Qin Haitian roared and swung his sword, but found that all his true energy was lost. Then, the terrible inner demon turned into black mist and wrapped around his body. At this moment, Qin Haitian felt his consciousness sinking.
At this moment, Qin Qiao'e's voice penetrated the illusion and rang in Qin Haitian's mind: "Master! These are all fake! All fake!"
Qin Haitian suddenly woke up and found a half-broken sword stuck in his heart. Blood dripped down the hilt, causing ripples in the void.
"I see..." He held the sword and slowly pulled it out, "If you can't see through the illusion, how can you prove the truth?"
The broken sword turned into golden light and sank into his forehead. Qin Haitian's momentum suddenly rose, and his cultivation level seemed to have no bottleneck and rose rapidly.
Originally, Qin Haitian's cultivation had just broken through to the seventh level of the Return to One Realm a few days ago, but at this moment, he continued to improve to the ninth level of the Return to One Realm before stopping!
And that broken sword is not actually a real broken sword, but something that contains extraordinary energy, just like Tao, the way of swordsmanship.
Bang bang bang!
Suddenly, there was a sound of applause in front of him, which made Qin Haitian's eyes shrink, because the applause was too abrupt!
