Chapter 681 - Step 1 - Killing intent
"You guessed right."
Jian Yi"s voice sounded out, "The "Ling Xiao Ancient Road" test, to others, is extremely difficult. But your test is at least ten times more difficult than the others. In this" Ling Xiao Ancient Road ", each step you take is one illusion, and each step you take is one filled with killing intent! "
"One step, one illusion, one step, one killing intent …"
Hearing these ten runes, Tang Huan"s heart also tightened slightly. He could not help but ask, "Senior Jian Yi, how many steps does this" Ling Xiao Ancient Road "need to complete?"
"That depends on you." Jian Yi said slowly.
"Look at me?" Tang Huan was startled.
"That"s right."
The sword laughed, then said, "Tang Huan, after you become a Martial Warriors, every battle, will appear in the illusions here. The number of battles, will be the number of illusions."
"If you can successfully pa.s.s through all of the illusions, this" Ling Xiao Ancient Road "will be finished. And every time you can pa.s.s through the illusions, your strength will increase."
"However, as long as you are killed in one of these illusions, you will also die, and your soul will be completely devoured by this Ling Xiao Ancient Road. In addition, if you were injured in the illusion world, your body would also be injured. If your injuries are so severe that they are difficult to heal, even if you successfully pa.s.s through that illusion world, you will still die here in the end. "
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Tang Huan subconsciously looked down.
Only then did he realize that the clothes on his abdomen area had already been torn apart, and a small area had even been dyed gold with blood. However, the place where the dagger had pierced him had already healed. After that, Tang Huan looked at the hand he used to grab the dagger again.
"I see." Tang Huan nodded and sighed.
"Yiya!"
Xiao Budian cried out crisply, his gaze swiveling back and forth between Tang Huan"s palms and abdomen. His pair of deep blue eyes were filled with worry.
"Don"t be afraid."
Tang Huan caressed Xiao Budian"s head while laughing, but there was a trace of heaviness in his eyes. Within that illusion, Tang Huan didn"t have the memories he had now, but his opponent seemed to know how he would act. To him, this was indeed extremely dangerous.
The stronger the opponent, the greater the danger.
Furthermore, according to what Jian Yi said just now, when Tang Huan took his last step, the opponent he would meet would definitely be the Secluded Night Dark King. When they were in Foggy Sea Island, Tang Huan and Xiao Ai teamed up and wasted a great amount of energy to deal with it. His own soul was also heavily injured, and it took a long time for him to recover.
In this illusory realm, the Secluded Night Dark King would definitely be even more difficult to deal with.
However, since he had already entered the "Ling Xiao Ancient Road", Tang Huan would not be so timid. While thinking, Tang Huan once again stepped forward, and the scene in front of him changed.
It was still that blacksmith shop. Other than Tang Hong, Tang Jiang and Tang Junjie, there was also a seventeen to eighteen year old black-clothed youth. It was Tang Chao …
… ….
Inside the Foggy Sea Island, many figures were gathered in front of the Ling Xiao Arch.
Everyone was either sitting cross-legged on the ground, eyes closed, or pacing up and down with light footsteps. From time to time, they would raise their heads to look at the abnormally vast void within the arch.
"It"s been almost a month, right?"
Suddenly, a melodious voice broke the silence of this s.p.a.ce. The one who spoke was Shan Shan, and the two gazes that looked at Ling Xiao Arch were filled with worry.
"Little Shan Shan, don"t worry."
"With Tang Huan"s current strength, he can be called the strongest person in the history of our little world. If he is unable to pa.s.s the so-called test, no one in this world will be able to pa.s.s it in the future."
"That"s right."
Yu Feiyan cast a sidelong glance at Shan Shan, and laughed heartily. "The reason why that Senior Yun Zhan, who is a "Ling Xiao Sword Sect", left behind this trial, is because he wants to link this" Ling Xiao Ancient Road "with his own little world. If even Tang Huan failed, the "Ling Xiao Ancient Road" would probably never have any hope of connecting the dots. This was definitely not what Senior Yun Zhan intended to do, so let"s just calmly wait. "
Upon hearing her words, many of the surrounding people nodded their heads in agreement.
Shan Shan wrinkled her nose and snorted softly. She naturally understood this logic. However, understanding was one thing, and worrying was another.
"Only one month has pa.s.sed, there are still two more months. If the "Ling Xiao Arch" still hasn"t closed by then, it means that Tang Huan has already succeeded." Ou Xie said while beaming.
"Perhaps there"s no need to wait for two more months, the "Ling Xiao Arch" will make its move." Xing Meng also smiled slightly, he was extremely confident in Tang Huan.
"Gu gu …"
Xiao Ai groaned as he nodded his head repeatedly.
Seeing that, Feng Ming unknowingly smiled, but after a while, the smile on her face disappeared, and she secretly sighed.
After Tang Huan had entered the "Ling Xiao Arch", she could no longer sense his position, but the link between their souls still existed. Through this connection, she could still faintly sense some of Tang Huan"s situation.
Almost every once in a while, the connection would become extremely weak.
At first, she didn"t quite understand what it meant.
But with the increase in their numbers, she slowly woke up to reality. Every time the connection between their souls became weaker, it probably meant that Tang Huan was already in great danger. However, she did not reveal her discovery to prevent others from thinking too much.
Fortunately, although the connection became weaker time and time again, it did not completely break. Instead, it quickly strengthened to its original state.
It could be seen that Tang Huan was constantly pa.s.sing through various dangerous situations …
… ….
Ling Xiao Ancient Road.
"Huff!" "Huff, puff …"
Tang Huan suddenly woke up, but he was unable to hold on. "Putong" he kneeled on the ground, panting like an ox, his brows filled with an unconcealable exhaustion.
At that instant, the black-coloured robe on his body was filled with all sorts of big and small cracks.
Every part of the robe had a golden mark on it, which was very eye-catching. This was the result of the blood that was left on the wound. There were six long wounds that had just formed, and the golden blood that flowed out had almost completely soaked the robe.
The illusion just now had occurred in the Dragon Spring Town, and Tang Huan"s opponent was Sha Long Empire"s thousand generals, Chu Feng.
In the real world, Tang Huan had escaped from Chu Feng"s giant sword.
But in the illusion, Tang Huan could not escape, and in the end, even risked his life to kill that Stage Seven Martial Master. However, the final result was that there were six additional wounds on Tang Huan"s body, each of them rolling up until his bones were visible. Even if Tang Huan obtained the "Sun Spirit Body" after escaping the illusion, the recovery rate of his flesh body was ridiculously strong, and such an injury still could not be completely healed right away.
