Chapter 545
The passage is very long. It is the only way for warriors from the lower realm to go to the upper realm. Of course, there is another shortcut for messengers from the upper realm that does not require passing through the passage.
After entering the passage, the two activated the token. Well, this was for others to see and to reassure the messengers. Look, they used the token, so they don't have to worry about the two escaping from their control.
Because of the protection of the token, the illusions they saw along the way had no effect on them. These illusions were a test of the warriors' character.
The two of them quickly walked through the illusion and entered the second level of assessment. Just after they took a few steps, many monsters ran out from both sides of the passage. The strength of the monsters had reached the saint level, and they ignored the protective shield formed by the tokens on their bodies, pounced on the two of them, and bit the protective shields on their bodies.
Duan Linzhi sneered and squeezed Yuan Jing's palm: "Stand back and I'll deal with it. It's just a trivial trick."
"Okay, I believe you, Brother Duan." Yuan Jing replied sweetly, which guaranteed that the person behind the scenes would be so angry that he would jump to his feet.
Duan Linzhi was already a Martial Emperor, so of course he could kill the Saint-level monsters effortlessly. After a short while, these Saint-level monsters fell under his sword. Not long after the monsters died, the corpses in the passage disappeared, which showed that these monsters were the condensation of energy, but their strength was not lower than that of real monsters.
After the energy is dispersed, it can be condensed into a monster again after a period of time.
Duan Linzhi killed his way through the passage until the monsters on both sides of the passage became king-level in strength, and a solemn look appeared on his face.
All the monsters with the strength of the first-level emperor were killed by Duan Linzhi's sword. He quickly swallowed a pill to restore his energy and prepared to face the next wave of monsters. But an accident happened. This time, the energy condensed not from monsters, but warriors. Five second-level martial emperor warriors appeared and quickly surrounded the two of them.
When Duan Linzhi struggled to kill the five second-level Martial Emperor warriors and turned them into energy, Duan Linzhi was also injured. Yuan Jing hurriedly gave him healing pills and pills to replenish his energy.
At this moment, a sneer sounded in the passage. Yuan Jing, who was taking care of Duan Linzhi, looked at him. As expected, she appeared. This woman deserved to die.
Then, five warriors suddenly appeared in the passage. One of them was a woman. It was Ji Peilan. However, her physical body did not come in. Instead, it was her consciousness. The strength displayed was that of a fifth-level Martial Emperor. Because it was her consciousness that came in, she used energy to condense her body, so her strength was limited.
Duan Linzhi pushed Yuan Jing away, wiped the blood from his mouth, and looked at the woman coldly: "You are finally here. We have been waiting for this moment since we stepped into this passage."
Damn it! Ji Peilan felt that he was offended. At this moment, these two bastards still refused to bow their heads. He waved his hand and ordered the other four warriors: "Go, kill that alchemist. With this messenger here, you can't even step out of this passage."
"Really? Yuan Jing, be careful."
"Okay, let's see who can solve it the fastest." At this time, Yuan Jing no longer concealed his strength. He drew his sword and killed the four warriors who rushed towards him. He also used the soul attack skills he had practiced for many years at the same time. The strong soul power turned into a long whip and lashed at the nearest warrior.
With a "bang", the nearest warrior collapsed under Yuan Jing's attack, and scattered into light spots that flew around and turned into energy in the channel. The other three warriors seemed to be unaware of it, and still carried out the order to attack the invaders, attacking Yuan Jing fearlessly.
Ji Peilan didn't have the chance to find out how one of the warriors died, because she was surrounded by the dense sword energy used by Duan Linzhi. She thought that even if his strength was weakened, he was still at the fifth level of the Martial Emperor. What means were needed to deal with a lower realm warrior who had just entered the first level of the Martial Emperor? Isn't it easy to capture him?
But as soon as she faced Duan Linzhi's sword energy, she found something wrong. While trying her best to resist, she shouted angrily: "You bastard, how dare you hide your strength? This messenger wants you all to die in the passage!"
"Death? Go and experience this feeling for yourself!" Duan Linzhi mercilessly used his sword and sword energy to torture Ji Peilan's body. Even though only his consciousness came in, Ji Peilan still felt the pain from his flesh.
Duan Linzhi deliberately did not destroy her body directly, but wanted her to suffer enough before ending her.
At this time, behind Duan Linzhi, several "bang bang bang" sounds were heard. Yuan Jing had indeed dealt with the four warriors and turned around to support Duan Linzhi. He quickly set up a formation on the spot to imprison the soul, that is, the consciousness. Once the formation was activated, Duan Linzhi pointed his sword directly at Ji Peilan's heart. With a "bang", Ji Peilan's condensed body also collapsed.
Ji Peilan was filled with hatred. She had never expected that Duan Linzhi's strength was beyond her expectations. No, even Zhai Yuanjing was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. He had clearly been promoted to Martial Emperor long ago, but he showed the strength of Martial Saint. Ji Peilan decided to be merciless. Even if she had to withstand the pressure from Jiang Xiuyi, she would keep these two people in the passage forever.
When the body collapses, the consciousness will return to the flesh. Ji Peilan decided to enter the passage in person to deal with the two people in the passage after her consciousness returned. But the next moment, she found that her consciousness began to gather energy again, and in the blink of an eye she had a new body. She screamed in shock and anger:
"What did you do? Why can't I get out? How dare you! Someone come——"
Duan Linzhi tortured him mercilessly again, and with the last stab of his sword, his body collapsed with a "bang" again.
"ah--"
But no matter how much she screamed, her consciousness was still unable to return to the body that remained outside. She condensed a new body in the passage for the third time, but as her soul power weakened, the strength of her energy body became weaker and weaker.
When she found herself still in the passage for the fourth time, the pain that penetrated her bones frightened Ji Peilan: "No, spare me, I will do whatever you say...ah——"
When Ling Chi attacked her again, Duan Linzhi's eyes were extremely cold, and he was not moved at all by the woman's pleas for mercy. Yuan Jing was the same. If he let this woman go, who would let those young warriors who had been humiliated by her go?
Outside, Hua Wenmeng took the messengers who were guarding the passage to drink. In his words, what could happen? This test passage was set up by people from the upper realm. Even the martial emperors like them could not destroy the formations and restrictions in the passage, let alone the warriors from the lower realm.
Of course, when Hua Wenmeng diverted these people's attention, his heart was also pounding. He wondered how Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi were doing. He thought that a woman with the surname Ji would never have a good life in their hands. This was all he could do. It was really sad.
The tokens issued to the warriors in the lower realm this time all have the word "Luo" on them, which means that these warriors who enter the upper realm will join the Tianluo Sect and become disciples of the Tianluo Sect. This has been an agreement made by the four forces for many years, and these warriors take turns to enter each force.
When a warrior who entered the passage successfully passed the level, there would be a prompt outside. The guards who were drinking with Hua Wenmeng suddenly heard the message from the other side of the passage, quickly put down their glasses and went to check, then exclaimed: "Two people have passed. They must be the two who just entered. They passed so quickly?"
Hua Wenmeng was secretly delighted, but pretended to be puzzled and said, "Isn't it easy to get in with the token? Isn't it normal to get in so quickly?"
A few of them looked at each other and thought to themselves that Ji Peilan seemed to have failed, but how could she fail? Maybe Hua Wenmeng gave them something good. Forget it, success or failure has nothing to do with them, so they turned around and said, "Yes, it's normal. It seems that Tianluo Sect will have a few more junior brothers. Let's go, let's continue drinking. There are quite a few warriors who have passed the level today."
"Yes, keep drinking." Hua Wenmeng thought to himself that the Ji family had not appeared yet, which was very abnormal. Could it be that he was caught? This seemed a little unlikely, but he didn't care, and drank.
The news that Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi had successfully passed the level also reached the entrance. Jin Huang and Su Tianfeng were extremely surprised, while Feng Shixi was furious. How could this happen? Could it be that Envoy Ji had failed to capture those two people? He actually let them escape? This woman was too useless. She acted like she was very capable. Feng Shixi looked down on this woman from the bottom of his heart.
"Since Brother Duan and the others have made it through, let's go in too."
"Okay." Jin Huang and Su Tianfeng joined forces to enter the passage. Feng Shixi gritted his teeth and stepped in.
After Duan Linzhi and Yuan Jing killed Ji Peilan, the two successfully passed through the passage. At the other end of the passage was a colorful glass world that extended upward. The two looked at each other, then held hands and flew upward along the suction generated by this colorful world.
The two people who had traveled through time many times could easily see the spatial power in this world, as well as the formations and prohibitions that stabilized the spatial power. In fact, this was the real passage connecting the upper and lower realms. The so-called passage before was nothing more than a path set up by humans in the upper realm.
This experience was quite new to the two men. No matter how long the passage was, it had an end. When they saw the light of day again, they found themselves in a cover. No, it should be said that they were in a formation. Two warriors came from outside the cover, walking leisurely and chatting while flying.
"After waiting for so long, someone finally showed up. I hope there will be more people this time, so that we don't have to run all the way for just one or two people."
When they flew closer, they found that there were only two people in the cover. They were a little disappointed and made a hand gesture. Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi found that they could leave. After they walked out, they bowed to them. Before they could say anything, they were interrupted by them: "Just the two of you? Are there any others?"
Duan Linzhi nodded and said, "There are still people trying to pass the level, they should be coming up soon."
"Then stay aside and wait."
Yuan Jing asked curiously, "Where is this place? Is it far from the Tianluo Sect we are going to?"
"That's a lot of nonsense! But there's nothing I can't tell you." The two of them were obviously very clear about everything. If this kind of person came here, it would be impossible for him to leave their sect and he could only stay in Tianluo Sect. "This is the border of our four forces. It belongs to the four forces together, and Tianluo Sect is located in the southeast."
"So that's how it is. We won't disturb you two seniors anymore. We'll be leaving first." Yuan Jing bowed again. Before the two men could react, a space-breaking talisman tore open. A ball of space energy wrapped around Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi. In the blink of an eye, the two men disappeared in front of them.
The two men finally reacted after the man disappeared. They rushed over and shouted, "Oh no! Those two thieves got away. Report them now!"
"The Sky-Breaking Talisman! How did they get such a thing as the Sky-Breaking Talisman? Damn it, I'll make them regret what they did today!"
The two of them quickly sent out an urgent message, informing the fellow disciples around them of the situation of the two escaped people, and asked the fellow disciples who saw the urgent message to quickly arrest the two people when they saw them. They were warriors who had escaped from the lower realms secretly.
The time in the passage was very short, so when Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi used the Sky-Breaking Talisman to escape, Jin Huang and others in the lower world were still trying to break through, and no one noticed Ji Peilan's situation.
This group of people all had tokens, and nothing had been done to them, so their journey was smooth. Then they entered the colorful passage. They were all very excited, but unfortunately, as soon as they came out of the passage, they were strictly interrogated by the two warriors guarding outside. Only then did Jin Huang and the others realize that Duan Linzhi and Zhai Yuanjing, who had arrived before them, had run away.
Run away?
Several people suspected that they had misheard, but when they saw the two warriors looking furious, they looked at each other and wondered if they had really run away. Why did they run away? Where did they go?
They did not think that running away was a good thing. The lower realm had limited knowledge of the situation in the upper realm. Moreover, although the Martial Emperor of the lower realm had reached the top, in the upper realm, the Martial Emperor was still at the bottom. At this time, it would not do them any harm to rely on a sect, as it would help them better integrate into the upper realm.
Therefore, even Jin Huang and Su Tianfeng, who had a good impression of Duan Linzhi, could not understand their behavior. Feng Shixi sneered and took the initiative to step forward and said, "I have their situation to report. They offended Envoy Ji in the lower realm. They must have been worried that Envoy Ji would settle accounts with them after coming to the upper realm, so they ran away in a panic. But I believe that they will never escape the clutches of the seniors."
"Okay, stay still. I'll let you move and talk!" Not only did the two warriors not feel they were being flattered, they took their anger out on them.
Feng Shixi's face changed and he cursed Duan Linzhi and Zhai Yuanjing in his heart. It was these two bastards who had implicated them. He didn't know what else was waiting for them.
When there were no more people passing through the gate in the lower world, the gatekeepers wanted to temporarily close the passage. At this time, someone asked curiously, "Where is Ji Peilan? Where did she go?"
"We'll know if we go in and take a look. Didn't she go in? I really don't know what she is doing!" If going in was to stop those two people, then wouldn't those two people have already gone to the upper realm?
The two men finally found Ji Peilan in the passage, and discovered that she did not move. They pushed her, and Ji Peilan fell straight down.
He reached out and touched it. Oh no, the alarm went off: "Ji Peilan died in the passage."
Jiang Xiuyi brought people over immediately and discovered the cause of Ji Peilan's death after a careful inspection. Jiang Xiuyi didn't know whether to say that this woman was being clever or seeking her own death. She schemed against others but ended up plotting herself. Her soul power was strangled in the passage, and her soul was destroyed.
