When Zhou Hong and Guan Zhihong learned that the difficulty of the level would double for every person missing, their expressions became solemn.
At the previous second level, they had already deeply felt the difficulty.
Even though they worked together, they both paid a heavy price to successfully pass the second level.
But I didn’t expect that the difficulty of the third level would be doubled!
This puts an enormous amount of pressure on them.
besides.
The way they looked at Xiao Shi was also very different.
They all realized…
The opponent surprisingly passed the second level even though the difficulty of the second level was doubled, and he passed it without any damage. Even the guards around him did not suffer any casualties.
To this.
Their minds were all in turmoil.
They were well aware of the difficulty of the second level.
Not to mention that the difficulty has doubled.
Even on normal difficulty, it would be impossible for them to complete the game alone.
This not only shocked them, but also aroused their strong curiosity about Xiao Shi's identity.
For sure.
The other party must be in the Wumo realm.
It can't be a saint!
But being in the same Martial Demon Realm, they couldn't figure out how the other party managed to pass the level alone without any damage!
They immediately searched in their minds for the powerful martial demons in the Da Wu Dynasty.
But think about it.
They were also unable to match the person in front of them with the powerful martial demons in their impressions.
Even those powerful and extraordinary martial demons in their impression could not do this.
But Xiao Shi is powerful.
It made them feel a lot more at ease.
Thinking that there was such an unfathomable strong person entering the third level with them, the situation was not too bad.
But at this moment.
The barrier in front of them leading to the third level.
Suddenly disappeared!
This scene made all three of them stunned.
Instinctively, he turned his head and looked towards another official road.
The pavilion where they are now is the intersection of three official roads.
Logically speaking.
The barrier leading to the third checkpoint should only disappear when the third party arrives.
But the third party has not arrived yet.
This barrier has already disappeared...
This is very wrong!
"Could it be that..."
"They failed to pass the second level and died inside it?"
Zhou Hong's heart trembled.
Only this possibility can explain why the people on the third official road did not arrive and the barrier leading to the third checkpoint was removed ahead of schedule.
So that's it.
The situation is even worse for them!
Originally, there was one person missing from Xiao Shi's place.
The difficulty of this level has doubled from the beginning.
Now there are two less people...
Then the difficulty of the third level will most likely increase three times!
Even though they don’t know what is inside the third level yet…
But we can also imagine that the third level, which has tripled the difficulty, must be extremely difficult.
This made Zhou Hong and Guan Zhihong's faces turn pale.
Xiao Shi's expression hidden under the black cloak was also solemn.
Previously, he was able to pass the level by teleporting.
Now there is no transmission...
You can only pass the level with your hard power.
If he was alone, he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to pass the level even if the difficulty of the level increased three times.
But now he has to take care of more than just the guards around him.
At the same time, we also have to take into account these two martial arts realms.
If these two Wu Mo Realm masters died in the third level, the difficulty of the fourth level would increase again.
In this way, the difficulty of subsequent levels will increase as you progress.
"No..."
Xiao Shi frowned.
I feel that according to this rule, the difficulty of the following levels will inevitably increase by ten or twenty times.
By then, the difficulty of these levels will directly exceed the scope of the Martial Demon Realm...
There's no way it could pass.
Xiao Shi suddenly felt that his previous speculation about the increase in level difficulty might not be accurate.
"The reduction in the number of people will indeed increase the difficulty of the levels, there is no doubt about that."
"But is it possible that..."
“The difficulty of each level increases, not depending on the number of people at the beginning.”
Xiao Shi fell into deep thought about this.
From current experience.
He thought that this place could be divided into two parts.
Part of it is the levels.
The other part is the official road before entering the checkpoint.
This gave rise to an association in his mind.
"If the number of people at each checkpoint is not determined by the number of people at the beginning, then it should be determined by the number of people who appear on the official road after passing the previous checkpoint."
"That is to say..."
"People who died in the previous level will not be counted in the next level!"
Xiao Shi felt that his speculation might be more in line with the situation here.
If it depends on the initial number of people.
So the third level now is a six-person level.
However, those who died in the previous checkpoint will not be counted. Only those who pass the checkpoint and enter the official road will be counted.
This level is a three-person level.
Because only three of them passed the second level.
"That is to say..."
"As long as you don't kill people on the official road, the difficulty of the level will not change!"
Xiao Shi thought about it carefully.
When I killed that Wu Mojing before, he was killed by me after he passed the first level and entered the official road.
Therefore, the difficulty of the second level has doubled.
If you kill him inside the level instead of on the official road, it will not affect the next level.
In this way, there will be no problem that the difficulty of the later levels will inevitably increase by ten or twenty times.
Under normal circumstances, these levels are more difficult than the previous ones.
Even if the difficulty increases by just one time, it will become extremely difficult, let alone an increase of ten or twenty times.
There is absolutely no hope of passing this level.
Xiao Shi felt that according to his speculation, as long as none of the three of them died on the official road, the difficulty of the third level would not change at all.
Immediately.
Xiao Shi told the two of them about this idea.
After Zhou Hong and Guan Zhihong heard this.
They also felt that Xiao Shi's guess was more reasonable.
I felt relieved.
If the difficulty of this level were to increase three times, they would feel that they could basically just give up.
Of course, Xiao Shi also said that this was just his guess.
The specific situation can only be known after entering this level.
Anyway.
Next they all had no choice but to continue heading towards this level.
Before entering the level.
Xiao Shi took a look at Guan Zhihong's frozen left hand and personally helped him to thaw the ice.
Since this is a multiplayer level.
Naturally, they both need to work together.
Even though these two are far inferior to Xiao Shi in terms of strength, they both have exclusive items in their hands!
I believe it can play a good role.
soon.
When the three of them led a group of guards through the woods, they entered a valley.
It's obvious.
This valley is the third level of this area.
The sky over the entire valley was dark.
Parallel wooden stakes were inserted into the dark and towering cliff, and rotten coffins were lying on the stakes. There were at least hundreds of them as far as the eye could see.
The mud in the valley was dark brown, with no grass growing on it. When the sunlight shone into the valley, there was no warmth at all, only a pale light.
Just approaching, not yet stepping in.
Xiao Shi and the other two had already sensed that extremely strong and eerie aura.
Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes slightly at this.
He knows.
Each of the levels here represents a past era.
The scene in this level now obviously originated from a certain era in the Tianwu Continent.
"Could it be that this era is related to corpses and souls?"
Xiao Shi had a guess in his mind.
Through his own experience, Xiao Shi knew that there were different power systems in different eras of the Tianwu Continent.
If this level is about the soul...
Xiao Shi felt that he still had a lot of advantages.
After all, he has many ways to deal with souls.
Immediately.
Xiao Shi took the lead and stepped into the valley.
Zhou Hong and Guan Zhihong followed Xiao Shi closely and entered together.
call!
The moment you step into the valley.
They felt a biting cold.
This kind of coldness and the coldness of the ice region are two completely different kinds of coldness.
The coldness here is more due to the lack of vitality, like a huge cemetery where no life has appeared for many years.
Zhou Hong and Guan Zhihong were tense and looked around warily.
The moment Xiao Shi entered here, he spread out his soul consciousness.
However, his soul consciousness did not detect anything unusual here.
No soul was found either.
The whole valley was silent.
"If there is no soul, the danger here may be those coffins..."
Zhou Hong stared at the numerous coffins on the cliff.
Xiao Shi nodded.
He also discovered that the coffins on the cliff were not ordinary coffins. Even with his soul consciousness, he could not penetrate the coffins and see what was inside.
At the same time, looking at the distribution of these coffins.
It is in the form of two straight lines on the left and right, covering the entire valley.
When the three of them started moving forward.
call!
A strong cold wind suddenly blew in the valley, causing the guards to shiver.
at the same time.
In this gloomy wind.
The coffin closest to them suddenly shook.
It seems that the purpose of this gust of cold wind is to awaken the existence inside the coffin.
As the shaking of the coffin continued to intensify.
With a bang.
With a loud bang, the entire coffin lid exploded.
A figure flew out of the coffin and turned into an old man with gray hair.
The old man was burly and strong, with gray hair tied into a ponytail, thick eyebrows and fierce eyes.
There were patches of corpse spots on the pale, bloodless face.
The eye sockets were as black as ink, but the pupils were scarlet, with blood-like red light spreading out.
"A body?"
Xiao Shi frowned slightly.
It was clearly noticed that the old man flying out of the coffin was a lifeless corpse.
And there is no soul in the corpse!
That is to say.
This corpse was not subject to any spiritual manipulation.
But it can act...
This is very weird!
Usually, in order to manipulate a corpse, one must use soul power to do so.
Just like the two clones of Wang Xiao and Chai Wenshen created by Xiao Shi, they were formed by transferring part of the soul into the corpse.
But now this corpse...
But there was not a trace of soul power in his body.
It was just a simple corpse.
But this corpse can move freely like a living person.
call!
When the corpse flew out of the coffin, its scarlet eyes directly locked onto Xiao Shi and the other two.
His knees were slightly bent, and as he sank to the ground with a "boom", he flew towards Xiao Shi and the other two like an oversized cannonball.
Zhou Hong and Guan Zhihong both shrank when they saw this.
exclaimed at the same time.
“Physical training!
”
They instantly realized that this corpse was a physical cultivator in his lifetime.
Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes slightly.
Look more carefully than them.
"No..."
“This isn’t physical training.”
His figure flashed and he rushed out in an instant.
The corpses that were rushing towards them were like two meteorites, colliding fiercely in the air, causing a huge explosion.
boom!
Xiao Shi and the corpse were both knocked back.
Fell heavily to the ground.
Two deep holes were smashed into the ground.
You can see it.
Xiao Shi's entire chest was deeply dented by the impact, and all the bones in his chest were shattered, but his powerful healing ability made his injuries recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It was just a blink of an eye.
His sunken chest has been restored to its original state.
As for the corpse on the other side, there was a fist mark all over the chest.
The punch pierced through his body.
But he also has strong recovery ability.
Flesh and blood grow rapidly.
It quickly filled the hole in my chest.
Xiao Shi stared at the corpse.
Looks solemn.
Through a collision between them, he had clearly felt that the strength of this corpse had already reached a level comparable to the peak of the Martial Demon Realm!
At the same time, the strength and hardness of its body are also amazing.
It gave Xiao Shi a feeling like he was facing the incarnation of a demon.
The body of the demon clone originated from the evil energy in the Dark Moon era.
Now Xiao Shi felt that the corpse in front of him was like a humanoid warrior like the evil energy user. Every part of its body was comparable to a divine weapon and had incredibly powerful lethality.
And this kind of strength does not come from body training.
As a cultivator himself who practices body cultivation, Xiao Shi can clearly feel the strength of the other person's body, which is completely different from the body formed by body cultivation.
After all, when the body reaches a certain stage, blood will be formed.
But there is no blood in this corpse.
at the same time.
A cold wind blew through the valley again.
Then the two coffins on the cliff began to shake at the same time.
Then there were two loud explosions.
Two more corpses flew out from the two coffins.
"If every corpse here is as powerful as the peak of the Martial Demon Realm, then we're in trouble!"
Xiao Shi glanced at the many coffins on the cliff.
There are hundreds of coffins here!
