With a crisp sound, Su He's inner vision was interrupted. When he opened his eyes, he saw a golden token in front of him.
There is the word "Trial" on the front of the token, and a bright and shiny back.
The immortal sword on Turtle Mountain made Su Huanian's voice: "Go and participate in the trial. If you can pass the three levels of the trial with the inherited skills, do your best. There will be rewards at each level."
Just now Su Huanian was meditating when Xia Dali's flying sword arrived, bringing Elder Ge's token. This was an opportunity for Su He to practice Elder Ge's turtle Taoism, which could be considered compensation from the sect.
When the sound finished playing, a sword flashed on Turtle Mountain, and the entire Turtle Mountain rose into the air and broke away from the turtle shell.
Since she wants to participate in the trial, she naturally cannot rely on her magic sword and Guishan.
It depends on real ability.
The fairy sword took Guishan away, and only Su He and the turtle were left on the water.
I don't know how long I looked inside, but now it was already dark. There were clouds tonight and no moon, but the token was shining brightly in the night.
Su He felt a little expectant and a little nervous, just like he felt before a blind date in his previous life.
He swallowed the token and waited for the trial to come. The night deepened a little, and the deep forest was as quiet as water.
I don’t know how long it was, but in my hazy sleep, it seemed like a breeze was blowing gently on my tortoise shell, and it felt warm and comfortable.
Su He tried hard to stay awake but couldn't hold his breath and fell into a deep sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, a hint of murderous intent flashed by, and Su He woke up instantly and looked in the direction he felt.
A man walked out from the woods on the shore. He was wearing black clothes and a mask, holding a magic sword in his hand, and staring at him with unfriendly eyes.
Su He had been awakened by the murderous intent, but the warning device Xia Dali left on his tortoise shell was not activated...
The masked guest has murderous intentions, is he a vicious guest like Qiao Ling, or is it part of the trial
Su He didn't dare to jump to conclusions, but his heart leaned towards the latter. After all, the Qingyuan Sect was a famous and upright sect. There were some compromises, but not too many.
Especially after the big commotion today, with Su Huanian's sword suppressing the Law Enforcement Hall, everyone knows that this turtle has a backer. Even those who covet the flesh and blood of the divine turtle will think twice before acting.
Unless it was a killer sent by another sect because they didn't want Qing Yuan Sect to get a divine beast.
But this possibility is very small. If this is true, what is the difference between Qingyuanmen and a sieve
No matter which one it is, the water is Su He's battlefield.
Su He gently paddled towards the center of the Elephant River. Suddenly, a sword sounded behind him, and a sharp fairy sword pierced Su He's tail.
Despicable root thumper!
Su He quickly rolled sideways, using her tortoise shell skirt to block the sword. At the same time, she flicked her claws and lifted up a water hose, lashing it behind her like a whip.
The man failed to score after his attack and immediately pulled back. Su He's whip arrived first and with a thunderous sound, the tip of the whip swept across the man's lower back.
With a scream, the man in black was blown away, bounced twice on the water like a float, turned over and disappeared into the night. He hid in the woods, covered his back and gasped.
In the night, murderous intent suddenly arose.
One, two, three, the assassin he hit had three murderous intentions in total, two on the shore and one in the water.
Su He narrowed his eyes.
If this is a trial, the trial officer will have more or less personal emotions.
Su He asked himself if he had provoked anyone. He came here with emotions, perhaps because he had snatched the trial that belonged to them, or perhaps it was a guy like Qiao Ling.
Fight first and talk later!
Su He dived into the water, wrapped the water hose around his body, and sneaked away quietly.
The current, the night, and the dark turtles form a perfect hiding state. Turtles do not need training, they are born knowing how to hide themselves.
"Second brother, get ashore! It's underwater!" The first man in black on the shore shouted urgently.
It's too late!
"Boom!" A huge column of water shot up into the sky. Su He had been submerged thirty feet underwater and suddenly accelerated and rushed up. His turtle shell crashed down like a mountain. The man in black who was lurking on the water waiting for an opportunity to attack was immediately knocked away.
The person was still in the air when a water whip as thick as a bucket was swung in the air and chopped down in an "S" shape!
“Bang!”
The second one didn't even have a chance to react before he fell into the water again.
A mouthful of blood spit out,
The other two men in black on the shore suddenly rushed towards the water with a changed look in their eyes.
Su He turned and left.
Although he had the upper hand, Su He could sense that he could win against one man in black, and he would be invincible against two men, but he would be beaten if three men joined forces.
Especially the man who just shouted, Su He felt a vague sense of threat from him.
After being a turtle for two years, Su He has formed an instinct: he doesn't have to catch prey and it's okay to go hungry, but he must not get hurt.
The three of them gathered together and rushed towards Su He.
There were holes in the brains of these three people. They could clearly suppress him if they joined forces, but they chose to split up and launch a sneak attack, and he killed two of them instead.
It’s a pity that he doesn’t have any outstanding means of attack, otherwise he would dare to fight against three people.
No, Su He suddenly realized.
Never think of your enemy as being stupid. Three monks who obviously have actual combat experience cannot possibly not understand the art of combined attack.
This is a trial!
Only for trials will he use people whose fighting power is similar to or slightly higher than his.
He can handle the three of them with ease when they are separated, but he can't defeat them when they come together.
The test was... to escape to safety before the three of them met up
It should be like this.
Judging from the positions and movements of the three people at the beginning, they are safely in the west
Or does he have to reach a certain location in the west within a specific time while being intercepted by three people
How insidious! This trial was extremely simple, but the clever part was to make him understand the rules of the trial. In fact, this was the real trial, right
Test his comprehension!
This is a trial related to inheritance. It is meaningless to test combat power. Accepting the inheritance and understanding are the key.
After figuring this out, Su He turned around and left.
Go west, all the way west!
He would never allow the men in black to cause any hindrance to him.
Su He splashed through the water and ran, using his ability to control water to the extreme, his speed as fast as a horse.
Behind them, the three men in black looked at each other and understood each other's meaning: the Turtle Mountain Cave Mansion where the Divine Turtle could take photos was not there, so there was no need to waste restrictions, just chase him! Force him into Elder Ge's courtyard.
It would be best to take this opportunity to avenge those two whips! Anyway, it doesn't matter as long as it survives!
There were three people, one turtle, one chasing and the other fleeing, and their goals were surprisingly the same, all in the West.
The dark clouds dispersed, the moon rose above the willow branches, and before they knew it, they had left Xiangshui. Elder Ge's courtyard was clearly visible. They should have arrived. For some reason, Su He had a vague feeling that this was the destination!
Surrounded by wilderness and a lonely courtyard, it would be unreasonable to say that this place is not the destination.
Su He rushed into the courtyard.
The token in his mouth shook slightly and he spit it out. The words "try practice" on the front of the token remained unchanged, but there was an extra line of words on the back: The First Level!
Su He smiled. Will there be a display on the token after passing a level? Sure enough, he was about to escape into the courtyard while being stopped by the man in black.
In the special space, the sloppy old Taoist's eyes lit up, here they come!
Token feedback: The turtle has entered the trial and started the first level. Are you in such a hurry? It should be not long since you received the token, right
The space where he was located was called Sanhe Wasteland. It was too special, as if it had already left the Xuanhuang Realm.
The divine consciousness could not be transmitted. He could not observe the specific situation of the trials in the academy, and could only rely on the means left in the academy to perceive and adjust slightly.
The turtle should be pinned down by now, and being beaten by the puppet, right
As soon as Su He entered the courtyard, he felt his limbs suddenly sink, as if a mountain was pressing on his back. The whole turtle fell to the ground.
It's gravity! The gravity in this courtyard is at least three times that outside!
Puppets wielding hammers and sickles came from all directions, their movements so agile that they were completely unaffected by the courtyard's gravity.
Is this the second level of the trial? No rewards first
Su He was a little disappointed.
Three men in black rushed into the courtyard with swords in hand.
In the special space, the old Taoist vaguely sensed that three more powers suddenly appeared. Could it be the water-controlling power of the tortoise that Xia Dali had mentioned in the letter
But this and the other three forces seem to have broken in from the outside. The divine turtle cannot generate water on its own, so it needs to mobilize water from the outside
Although this is not enough, it is also a good magical power. It is as if three incarnations have been really condensed. It is really flexible!
Taoist Ge did not doubt him. The trial was conducted by Xia Dali. Although Xia Dali was shameless, he would not cheat and would not let anyone help the turtle create the formation.
These three powers can only be the ability of the divine tortoise itself, or at most the followers accepted by the divine tortoise. It is only natural that cultivators have pet beasts and divine beasts have followers.
If nothing unexpected happens, this level of trial will not be able to stop it.
But if I let it pass so easily, wouldn't it make my Taoism look cheap? The formation of the courtyard becomes stronger when it encounters a stronger opponent, how could it stand it!
As if in agreement with their master, the gravity of the courtyard suddenly increased fivefold the moment the three men in black broke in.
Su He had just adapted to the triple gravity when he was pressed down again. He did not fight back in a hurry, but stared with his tortoise eyes at the three men in black who were fighting with the puppets.
The sudden force of gravity made the three men's movements stutter, and they were beaten back by the puppets, but they adapted quickly and rushed forward with swords. One of them secretly sensed the bug and reported to Lu Ming.
"Brother, we have forced the divine turtle into Elder Ge's courtyard, but the gravity here is constantly increasing, and there are countless puppets. I'm afraid I can't hold on!" He chopped a puppet with a sword and began to pant.
Lu Ming transmitted his message through the katydid in his arms: "I have a light body talisman in my Qiankun bag. No need to save it. Break the formation! Force the divine tortoise to enter the third formation as quickly as possible. After you disguise the scene, retreat immediately."
In the prison, Lu Ming clenched his hands, showing his restlessness. This feeling of planning and winning thousands of miles away is really great!
I am in the prison, but my battlefield is hundreds of miles away in the Beast Taming Valley. The head of the sect, the Law Enforcement Hall, the Divine Turtle, and Elder Ge are all pawns on my chessboard.
This feeling... inexplicably excited!
This time, we will never fail!
In the small courtyard, Su He felt a bit strange as he looked at the man in black fighting with the puppet. The reward for passing the first level is that the boss of the first level helps me clear the second level
It’s a new way to play—but doesn’t the existence of the second level have any meaning
Defeating the puppet is not part of the assessment for this level!
Su He reacted and stared closely at the man in black and the puppet. As he watched their fight, a sense of clarity gradually arose in his heart.
Yes!
These puppets used all kinds of moves, but the three men in black only used one set of sword techniques from beginning to end.
Is this set of sword skills the test for the second level
Do you want him to learn sword
Su He doesn’t have a sword, but he has claws. Mortals can use their claws as swords, so why can’t a turtle
The spiritual energy here is rich, the gravity is doubled, and there are three men in black demonstrating in person. It is a great place to practice swordsmanship. If nothing unexpected happens, this is the real content of the second level trial, and it is even the reward for passing the first level.
Su He narrowed his eyes and watched the three men in black fighting with the puppet, his attention focused on the magic swords in their hands.
A dice fell from the sky and began to spin.
Five o'clock!
All of a sudden, it was as if he had suddenly been enlightened. The sword technique that he had never understood before, suddenly became clear to Su He. He waved his claws awkwardly at first, but after a while, he became able to do it like a pro.
Five points of learning efficiency.
The three men in black were struggling and encouraged each other in a low voice: "Hold on! This puppet is definitely not infinite. Once we chop it up, we can force the turtle into the second formation. Once we pass the second formation, our mission will be accomplished."
In the special space, the sloppy old Taoist closed his eyes and sensed the trial situation in the courtyard.
The boy was anxiously waiting: "Master, how about the turtle? Can it pass the first level? You didn't cheat by increasing the gravity a thousand times and sending out stone men or even bronze men, did you?"
The sloppy old Taoist waved his hands: "Nonsense! How could the master do such a thing?"
We are separated by three rivers and wasteland, so even if you want to cheat, you have to be able to control yourself!
Besides, if he wants to cheat, he should do it at the third level. If a divine turtle can't even pass the first level, if it gets out, people will definitely think that I, the Taoist priest, am making things difficult for him and don't want to teach him the Taoist magic!
But why is this stupid turtle fighting with the puppet? Can't he just use his turtle shell to withstand the puppet's attacks and force his way through
There are endless puppets. If I can’t pass the first level, it will ruin my reputation!
