This world has been completely silent, devoid of any life. Your mission is to deliver the spirit seed in your hands to the only remaining spring in this world and plant it there. Whoever reaches the spring first and plants the spirit seed will be the winner.
"However, there are various dangers along the way. These are all disasters left by the chaotic energy." Fang Jian said this, and then he summoned twenty-five talismans and presented them to the crowd. "Hold these talismans carefully. If you encounter danger, do not try to resist. Be sure to crush them immediately. Then the immortal light within will lead you away."
Then, Fang Jian looked at everyone and warned, "Don't try to be brave. Once you are trapped in the disaster left by the chaotic energy, even I can't guarantee that I can save your soul."
Upon hearing this, the cultivators present couldn't help but look tense. "How could this be called simple?" In the previous tests, even if one died, their spirits and souls could still be preserved. But in this test, even dying might not guarantee survival.
"So, if any of you want to withdraw now, you can raise it immediately. There is still time." Fang Jian said to the crowd.
Liu Chenxiang, the young man who once split the mountain to save his mother, couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
But after all, he had a grudge with Fang Jian, so it was impossible to ask him to admit defeat and withdraw. Besides, Liu Chenxiang was not afraid of him.
Not only Liu Chenxiang, but the other immortals did not propose to withdraw. Instead, they all held the talismans given by Fang Jian tightly in their hands. Once a crisis occurred, they would crush the talismans without hesitation.
Fang Jian waited for a moment, and seeing that no one suggested quitting, he asked, "Are you ready?"
"We're ready, Master Hongqing." The monks said one after another.
Fang Jian nodded and said, "Okay, the assessment officially begins."
As soon as Fang Jian finished speaking, his figure instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Immediately afterwards, the four groups of people from Heaven, Taoism, Buddhism, and Immortals immediately dispersed and automatically formed four different camps.
Upon seeing this, General Lin Jingcao of Thunder couldn't help but say, "Fellow Daoists, there's no need for us to kill each other now, right? Don't forget the calamity caused by the chaotic energy ahead. It's too early to start a fight now."
"This fellow from Heaven is absolutely right," said the immortal Ling Caibo, "let's go our separate ways and find the spring."
The Buddhist Dragon Girl holding a pearl nodded and said, "That makes sense, fellow Taoists. Then my Buddhist sect will take the lead."
After the Pearl-holding Dragon Girl finished speaking, she rode away on a cloud with the other four great Buddhist monks, Zhiyi, Huike, Zhiwei, and Huiyuan.
Seeing that the Buddhist sect had already taken the lead, Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Taoist sect, also bowed and said, "Fellow Taoists, my sect will also take the lead."
After saying this, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, Zhang Liang, Wang Chongyang, Zhang Sanfeng, Liu Chenxiang and others from the Taoist sect immediately ascended into the sky and disappeared into the sky in an instant.
The Taoist and Buddhist monks had all left. The six people from the Heavenly Palace, Lin Jingcao, Ao Ding, Huang Ling, Feng Yan, Huang Meng, and Huang Ying, also bowed to the group of immortals, and then stepped onto the clouds and left.
Finally, only a group of scattered immortals remained. They stared at each other in silence for a long time, and then a female immortal with a brilliant jade-like appearance spoke up, "If we scattered immortals want to compete with our fellow Taoists from Heaven, Taoism, and Buddhism, we must unite. Therefore, we need to elect a leader."
"Fellow Daoist Mu Tinglian is right," said another female immortal, her skin as white as pine resin and as fragrant as dew. "If we are a pile of scattered sand, how can we compete with fellow Daoists from Heaven, Taoism, and Buddhism?"
The female fairy who spoke was named Zhi Jinghuan, and she was a close friend of Mu Tinglian.
The two female fairies spoke first, and the other scattered fairies also expressed their agreement. They could be a group of scattered sand outside, but if they were still a group of scattered sand here, then let alone competing with the Heavenly Court, Taoism, and Buddhism, they would have to fight among themselves first.
Therefore, after discussion and election among the immortals, they elected Tai Zhengping, the oldest and most powerful immortal present, as their leader.
To be honest, this leader does not have any real power. He is just responsible for coordinating the scattered cultivators, serving as the backbone to unite people's hearts, and being a mediator with the greatest say. Therefore, who is chosen is irrelevant to the overall situation.
Then, under the leadership of Tai Zhengping, the immortals also set off.
