Ye Yu was so angry that he almost vomited blood. If he had known earlier, he would not have said anything and would have just watched Li Xiu and the others fall.

"My cultivation is still not good enough, I have to stay calm...stay calm..." Ye Yuzhen took a deep breath, but the breath in his heart was so blocked that he couldn't swallow it.

Ye Yuzhen didn't take a deep breath, jumped over the pillar and continued to follow.

The A-level trial is much more difficult than the previous B-level trial, and Li Xiu no longer dares to drag A Fei and the others directly into the room.

Even if he couldn't hear any movement in the room, Li Xiu would go in first, and after making sure there was no danger, he would let A Fei and Sha Chu in.

"Let me go in front." The bandit said to Li Xiu.

She has the skill of giving up, so if she encounters danger, she can quit directly.

"No need." Li Xiu shook his head. He didn't know how big the A-level dark maze was yet. He had to find a way out as soon as possible. It would be too slow to let Ah Fei go ahead and explore.

"Sha Chu, wasn't your body able to glow before? Why didn't you use it here?" Li Xiu looked at Sha Chu.

"Do you think I don't want to use it? I can't use it here in the trial field. In the trial, you can only rely on your own qualities. Nothing else can be used. I can only use it after I leave the trial field." Sha Chu sighed.

"What's the use of it outside the trial field?" Li Xiu was a little confused as to why the abilities of Qi, Mo Ling and Sha Chu could not be used in the trial field.

Outside the trial field, it is the world of the magic armor masters, and real trial participants cannot defeat them.

"Of course it is useful. It will be useful after you pass the trial field." Sha Chu said.

"You mean behind the admission ticket?" Li Xiu asked as he walked.

"Haven't you been in there before?" Sha Chu asked tentatively.

"No, tell me, what's behind the ticket?" Li Xiu didn't think of hiding anything.

"That is the real trial ground. To use an inappropriate metaphor, the trial ground is a school, a place for you to learn and train. The trial ground is the real society. If you don't have the ability, you will be beaten if you enter the trial ground."

After a pause, Sha Chu continued, "I have only been to one trial site. It's not that I can't go to other trial sites. Each trial site has a corresponding trial site. You can enter with an admission ticket, but no one can guarantee whether you can come out alive. The first time I entered that trial site, I survived by luck after a narrow escape from death. So since then, I have never been to other trial sites. Even after I had an S-level punisher of good and evil, I never thought about going to other trial sites. I only went to the trial site that I was familiar with."

"After getting the admission ticket, how do I enter the trial site?" Li Xiu asked again.

"After completing the agreement with Qi, the bronze lamp will naturally lead you to the trial ground. After you get the contract for this trial ground, you will not have another contract next time you come in, and the gate of the trial ground will be open, so you can go in directly. But I advise you not to try to enter the trial ground without full preparation, as that may cost you your life." Sha Chu thought for a moment and said, "But you have so many demon spirits, so your chances of survival should be greater than that of ordinary trial-takers."

Sha Chu continued, "Every trial site is different. My experience is of no use to you. The only useful information is to be prepared to fight against the demons."

Li Xiu understood what Sha Chu meant. There are different types of demons, and their abilities vary greatly. It is useless to only know the ability of a certain demon.

"If I get a chance, I'll go in and take a look." Li Xiu suddenly stopped. He heard something hissing from inside the door that had just been opened.

Before Li Xiu closed the door, he smelled a fishy odor, and the thing blew over with the fishy wind.

Li Xiu immediately stepped aside and shouted, "Get out of the way, something is rushing out."

A Fei and Sha Chu immediately retreated to the sides. Sha Chu wanted to rush into the room, but felt his legs were entangled by something, so he immediately punched it down.

Bang!

When she punched the thing, she felt something greasy and cold. The iron plate was about to be bent by her punch, but Dong Fei did not let go of her legs. Instead, he wrapped around her and directly wrapped around her body, causing Sha Chu to lose her balance and fall to the ground.

"It's a python. I'm entangled by a giant python." Sha Chu shouted.

Li Xiu had already figured out what that thing was, so he pushed Ah Fei into the room with the door open, and rushed to Sha Chu's side. He listened to the wind and determined the position. The skill imprint emerged, and he smashed his finger bones into the ** of the python.

The python suddenly relaxed, and Sha Chu quickly broke free. Together with Li Xiu, he rushed into the room with the open door and closed it behind him.

As soon as Ye Yuzhen entered the room, he saw the angry python and was immediately frightened.

It was too late to escape, as the huge python suddenly jumped over.

"Oh my god!" Ye Yuzhen was shocked and angry, and turned around and ran away.

Fortunately, he retreated quickly this time and returned to the previous room. He closed the door with his backhand. There was a bang, as if it was the sound of a python hitting the door.

Seeing that the python was more than ten meters long and frighteningly thick, Ye Yuzhen did not want to get entangled with it, so he had to change his route and did not dare to chase Li Xiu and the others anymore.

Li Xiu and his two companions passed through one room after another, and soon Li Xiu discovered a pattern. The A-level dark maze was actually just based on the B-level maze, with several more floors of rooms on the periphery, and there were also more rooms with mechanisms and venomous snakes and ferocious beasts.

However, the way out of the maze has not changed. As long as you can figure out the direction of the maze, the road ahead is still the same. You just need to explore the road in the next few floors of the room.

With this discovery, it became much easier to continue finding the way.

He took Ah Fei and Sha Chu through one room after another. Although they encountered some traps and ferocious beasts, they were able to resolve them safely. In less than half an hour, they reached the exit.

Until the countdown ended, only Ye Yuzhen came out, and none of the other trial-takers came out.

Seeing that Li Xiu and the others were not dead yet, Ye Yuzhen glared at them hatefully.

After taking the reward, Ye Yuzhen chose to give up. Even he was unwilling to take the risk of an A-level trial again.

"The second round only has half an hour. Do you want to continue?" Sha Chu looked at Li Xiu.

"Of course." Li Xiu had already figured out the map of the A-level dark maze, so it would not be a problem for him to clear it in half an hour.

The three people entered the second round of trials. Under the leadership of Li Xiu, they reached the exit safely and received the reward again.

The third time became the final test, which lasted only fifteen minutes, but was still not a problem for Li Xiu.

This time, under the leadership of Li Xiu, they bypassed all the mechanisms and poisonous insects and beasts and rushed out of the exit within fifteen minutes.

"The final trial is completed, and the rewards are being randomly generated... Each trial participant can choose two rewards..."

Soon, four rewards appeared in front of Li Xiu, and Li Xiu saw the admission ticket at a glance.

"Finally, I have another admission ticket." Li Xiu was delighted. He first chose the attribute reward and then the admission ticket.

Although skills and talents are important, Li Xiu is more lacking in attributes now.

After the attribute injection, Li Xiu felt that his physical fitness had greatly improved. If he were to pick up the Fire Lotus Sword again as he is now, he should be able to pick it up easily as long as he had the blessing of boiling blood and super excitement.

The black admission ticket turned into a black hole and sucked Li Xiu in.

The dim copper lamp, the ancient stone table, it was still the same familiar things, but the things on the stone table were different.

"What is this?" Li Xiu walked closer and looked carefully at the black thing on the table. Only then did he see clearly that it was actually a pair of sunglasses.

"This contract really has everything, except for a pair of sunglasses. Why don't you get me a pair of sunglasses?" Li Xiu complained in his heart, but he didn't stop. He walked to the front of the table, directly activated the S-level blood-boiling skill, and reached for the sunglasses with both hands.

After so many times of strengthening, Li Xiu's strength is now much stronger than before. Coupled with the double strength blessing of S-level passion, the extremely heavy sunglasses were lifted up little by little by him.

Although it still feels heavy, it is not as hard to lift as before.

The moment the sunglasses left the table, a strange voice was heard: "Congratulations, tiny carbon-based creature, you have obtained the qualification to 'contract' with a higher life form to become a life community. Its name is the Dark Mirror. Use your blood to complete the life agreement with it. From now on, you will become an inseparable whole, and it will be the cornerstone of your growth..."

With the experience of the last fire lotus, Li Xiu knew that this voice could communicate, so he asked: "What grade of contract is the Dark Mirror?"

"Brilliant." The strange voice answered Li Xiu's question.

"Is this thing of higher quality than the Fire Lotus Sword?" Li Xiu looked at the sunglasses in his hand, feeling a little surprised.

"Have you fulfilled your life's promise with the Dark Mirror?" the strange voice continued to ask.

"Yes." Li Xiu made the decision without hesitation.

If his previous speculation was correct, even if he wanted to fulfill the life agreement and make the Dark Mirror his symbiotic contract, it would be impossible.

Even if his speculation was wrong, it would be a good choice for the Brilliant Contract to become the Symbiotic Contract. After all, things of the quality of Glory, whether it is a contract or a magic spirit, are extremely rare.

Of course, that possibility is low.

"Use your blood to complete the life contract. From now on, the Dark Mirror will become a part of your life and grow with you..."

Following the strange sound, Li Xiu felt a pain in his finger, as if he was pricked by the Dark Mirror in his hand. A wound appeared on his finger, and blood flowed onto the Dark Mirror.

After the Dark Mirror absorbed Li Xiu's blood, it immediately emitted a strange black light, then automatically flew up and was placed on Li Xiu's face.

The next second, Li Xiu felt his body sink. Although the Mirror of Darkness was on his face, he felt as if a heavy object was pressing down on his whole body. Li Xiu almost staggered and fell to the ground.

"The symbiotic agreement has failed, the Dark Mirror has transformed into a parasitic contract... the trial ground is opened... when the Eternal Lamp goes out... that is when you leave the trial ground..." The strange voice became smaller and smaller.

The copper lamp on the stone table suddenly floated up strangely and slowly drifted into the darkness behind the stone table.

Li Xiu hurriedly followed, he wanted to see what the trial place that Sha Chu mentioned was like.

If Sha Chu was able to survive, Li Xiu would have several demon spirits at his disposal, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to survive.

Originally, he only had the Fire Lotus Sword as a burden on his body, and now he had the Dark Mirror as well. Fortunately, his physique was much stronger than before, and he could still walk with the help of his boiling blood.

The bronze lamp was not floating very fast, and Li Xiu could barely keep up.

As I walked, I realized that except for the one-meter range where the light was shining, everything else was pitch black and I couldn't see anything.

Suddenly, Li Xiu's eyes lit up. He didn't know when, but he was standing in an ancient city.

The bronze lamp was floating beside Li Xiu. Wherever Li Xiu went, the bronze lamp would follow him, without the flame moving.

Li Xiu tried to summon the demon spirit, and the Jedi Knight immediately appeared in front of him.

"Sure enough, magic spirits can be used in the trial ground." Li Xiu summoned all the magic spirits without hesitation, let them surround him, and then began to look around this ancient city.

The architectural style of this city is very strange. All the buildings are built with black stones, even the roads.

The stone walls and the ground are not very flat, and the construction technology seems to be very backward, as if they have not been polished at all, and the raw stones are just piled together.

The walls and the road were uneven, there were no electric lights on either side of the road, and at regular intervals there was something like a stone stove with charcoal burning in it.

Those buildings don't look like ordinary people's houses, but rather like some kind of religious style, giving people a mysterious, gloomy and terrifying feeling.

The doors of all the buildings that Li Xiu could see were tightly closed.

He was standing at the intersection of two streets. Looking around, he couldn't see a single person. It was like a dead city with no living people.

The sky was frighteningly dark, without a single star or moon. There was only the glow of flames from the charcoal stoves lining the street, and the occasional crackling sound of charcoal splitting.

There is a small square at the corner of the intersection, where stands a black stone tablet with three twisted large characters "Black Death City" engraved on it.

Clang... Clang...

From deep within the dark street, a strange noise was heard, as if an iron chain was being dragged across the ground.

Li Xiu looked intently. In such a dark environment, he should not be able to see too far. However, perhaps because of the Dark Mirror, he could actually see very far.

At the end of the long street, he saw a creature with shackles on his hands and feet walking towards him step by step.

It was obviously not a human being, because he had a pair of black horns on his head, like the devil's horns in the legend.

His whole body was wrapped in black armor like cast iron. Black smoke was coming out of the gaps in the armor, and a strange black light appeared from time to time.

Li Xiu knew that it was an evil spirit, but he had never seen this kind of evil spirit before.

The evil spirit dragged the shackles and walked towards them step by step, undoubtedly coming for Li Xiu.

Li Xiu turned over and sat on the pink nightmare, and at the same time ordered the Chrysanthemum Knight to charge at the evil spirit.

The Chrysanthemum Knight held a gun in one hand and a shield in the other, and the heavily armored cavalry under him galloped wildly, charging towards the evil spirit.

The Chrysanthemum Knight was wearing heavy armor, and the momentum of his charge was terrifying. The demon seemed not to see it and continued to move forward step by step.

Just as the Chrysanthemum Knight was about to rush to the front of the evil spirit, the warhorse suddenly neighed, bent its front legs and fell to the ground, and the Chrysanthemum Knight also fell to the ground.

The man and the horse struggled for a few times, and then fell to the ground and didn't move. No matter how Li Xiu called them, they didn't move.

Li Xiu was horrified to find that the Chrysanthemum Knight and the warhorse began to emit black smoke, like the black smoke produced by a burning corpse.

The demon spirit walked past the Chrysanthemum Knight without even looking at him, and continued to walk towards Li Xiu.

Clang... Clang...

The chain dragged on the uneven ground, and the sound it made echoed in Li Xiu's ears like a death warrant.

Li Xiu was retreating because he saw the Chrysanthemum Knight and his warhorse lying on the ground, most of their bodies had turned black. The black color was still spreading over his body, and the parts that had turned black were like flying ash, which was blown away by the wind.

The evil spirit was moving faster and faster, getting closer and closer to Li Xiu.

Li Xiu rode the pink nightmare and retreated while observing the evil spirit. He still couldn't figure out how the Chrysanthemum Knight was killed.

So he could only take back all the demons except the pink nightmare to avoid any unnecessary sacrifices.

The monster itself is difficult to obtain. It is unknown how many gems are required to produce one, so it cannot be used as cannon fodder.

Li Xiu rode the pink nightmare to distance himself from him. The evil spirit kept following behind, getting faster and faster, but compared with the pink nightmare, it was still much slower and could not catch up with Li Xiu for a while.

"Luckily there is Pink Nightmare, otherwise if I were to run on my own, I would have been caught up long ago." Li Xiu secretly rejoiced, but continuing to run like this was not a solution.

He had reached the end of the long street. Surprisingly, this city had no gates. At the end of the long street was a stone wall that was more than ten meters high.

What’s even more bizarre is that such a long street has no forks, as if there are only two long streets running horizontally and vertically like a cross.

Although the evil spirit was moving very slowly, Li Xiu had already reached a dead end and had no way to retreat.

Clang... Clang...

The demon spirit that was thrown away caught up again not long after, but Li Xiu had nowhere to retreat.

Li Xiu knew that he couldn't let the evil spirit get close to him, so he could only summon the demigod Shanna again.

The demigod's body, glowing blue, flickered in and out of view, like a blue shadow.

"Kill him." Li Xiu gave the order to the demigod Shanna.

The demigod Setsuna immediately raised his arm and shot at the demon with his blue diamond pistol. A blue light bullet streaked across the night and hit the demon in the head.

With a bang, the demon's helmet was pierced by the light bullet, and black smoke immediately poured out from the bullet hole.

The demon's body suddenly fell backwards and fell heavily to the ground. Blue light ran around in its body and black smoke continued to pour out.
