The huge Devil's Breath Lake is located in the south of the country of Yue, among the mountains. It is said that when the last calamity came, fire fell from the sky and created a huge sinkhole with a radius of tens of thousands of miles, and then the Devil's Breath They gathered here to form such a demonic land. If you look at this place from a high altitude, it will be dark and gloomy, with demonic breath turning into waves and sweeping across all directions. It really looks like an evil lake...
Within the Devil's Breath Lake, there are swarms of monsters, but also strange flowers and plants everywhere.
The demons inside were all more or less affected by the demonic breath, and became a kind of dark creature that devoured people.
These dark creatures are powerful and kill everyone. The weaker ones cannot break away from the shackles of the Devil's Breath Lake and will only cause chaos inside. But the stronger ones may rush out from the Devil's Breath Lake and kill them. lives, causing catastrophe.
It is precisely because of this that the five major immortal sects of the Yue Kingdom set the rules for the Immortal Ascension Conference.
Every ten years, a group of Immortal Sect disciples rush into the Demonic Breath Lake, killing the demons that have not yet grown up one after another, and also collect the magical medicinal herbs that have magical effects on cultivation, and obtain Rare cultivation resources, in this way, we can not only eliminate the hidden dangers in the Demonic Breath Lake, but also take advantage of this trial opportunity to enhance the power of the major immortal sects in the cultivation world...
The reason why these disciples who failed to establish the foundation were allowed in was, firstly, to let these disciples experience the terror of some dark creatures in advance, strengthen their Taoist hearts, and refine their fairy swords; secondly, it was because of the aura in the Demonic Breath Lake. , is so weird that it not only spawns a large number of demons, but can even corrupt the mana of practitioners and turn them into dark creatures, which is a disaster.
More importantly, there are many weird taboos in it. The higher your cultivation level, the easier it is to trigger these taboos!
For thousands of years, those who have entered the foundation building and golden elixirs and survived are very rare. However, the disciples in the Qi training realm have a great chance of survival. Over time, this has become a forbidden area for foundation building and golden elixir masters. The trial of a qi training disciple!
"You are all true disciples of various immortal sects. You must all know the rules of the Demon Breath Lake trial. I don't need to say more!"
At this time, outside the Demonic Breath Lake, the elder of the Immortal Sect in charge of the teleportation formation was giving his final lectures to the leading true disciples:
"Your main task is to eliminate the demons in your respective territories. You must not allow them to grow up and cause catastrophe. There are inherent dangers here, but there are also generous rewards. As long as you can lead the disciples, you will be responsible for Once the demons in the area have been wiped out, you will be considered to have passed the trial. During the Immortal Ascension Conference, you will be given a chance to build a foundation!"
All the immortal sect true disciples were a little excited when they heard this.
What they are pursuing is such an opportunity to build a foundation...
If you want to get a chance to build a foundation in the Immortal Ascension Conference, there are only two ways:
One is to lead the disciples to eliminate demons, pass the trial, and get the opportunity to build a foundation given by the Yue Kingdom Immortal Sect!
The second is to pick some amazingly valuable medicines and offer them to the Immortal Sect in exchange for a chance to build a foundation...
However, precious medicines are rare. It would be good to have one or two in every Immortal Ascension Conference, so we won’t consider them!
"If the opportunity to build a foundation is your biggest reward, then the dark magic breath in the Devil's Breath Lake is your biggest threat!"
The elder warned in a deep voice: "You must remember that the most important thing to fight against the dark devil's breath is whether your Taoist heart is firm!"
"The firmer the Dao heart is, the less affected it will be by the dark devil's breath. However, the devil's breath is weird, and the Dao heart alone is not enough. Therefore, all the disciples of the Immortal Sect who enter the Devil's Breath Lake will have the magic breath given by the Immortal Sect. The spiritual light talisman is jointly refined by the five immortal sects. It is activated by the mind and will release the protective light. It can help you resist the dark devil's breath to a certain extent... "
All the disciples were listening very seriously at this time, even though they already knew these things.
On them, each one has a spiritual light talisman.
After worshiping this talisman, a faint purple brilliance will appear above the head. This brilliance can block the evil breath.
All the things the elders said about the Taoist heart can actually be ignored. I hear them say something about the Taoist heart and not the Taoist heart every day, as if the Taoist heart can resolve all dangers. But in fact, who would believe such illusory words? I guess the elders I don’t even believe it!
Therefore, the spiritual light talisman is the true reliance and the foundation for survival in the Demonic Breath Lake!
"All true heirs, follow me!"
After that, another elder called Fang Yuan and others and gave each of them a formation flag: "Once you enter the Devil's Breath Lake, life and death are two different things."
"The Devil's Breath Lake is filled with dark devil's breath, and it is a completely different world from the outside world."
"Inside, it is impossible to transmit information to the outside world. We don't know what dangers you will encounter inside. If there are some problems that cannot be solved, everything can only be decided by you, the true disciples. And this Tao has gone through a special process The formation flag of the sacrifice is for you to save your life. If you encounter danger and suffer heavy casualties, you can rush to the cloud platform set up by your respective immortal sect in the Demon Breath Lake in advance. There is a large formation to resist the demons there. You You can wait there until the cloud platform is turned on, and then teleport back, but... "
"But it is my duty as an immortal to slay demons and subjugate them. If you hide on the cloud platform, this trial will be considered a failure!"
After hearing this, all the true disciples showed a little smile on their faces.
They are all the true disciples of the Immortal Sect, the proud sons of heaven, and naturally they are arrogant. Since they have entered the Demonic Breath Lake, they must eliminate the demons, lead the disciples to pass the trial, and gain a chance to build a foundation. This is No one will use methods that are half-assed!
But Fang Yuan listened attentively and remembered every word the elder said. He even asked a few more questions about Bahuang Yuntai. When others saw him, they thought he really cared about this matter. Everyone who was trying to save their lives laughed.
"The trial at Devil's Breath Lake is simple. It's just about slaying demons. I won't say much more!"
The elder waved his palm: "Go in now!"
"Teleportation array, start!"
At this moment, with a loud shout, not far away, a teleportation formation was suspended in mid-air, surrounded by mountains. The spiritual light flashed instantly, and the brilliance shot straight into Yunxiao, and here Around the formation, elders from various immortal sects such as Beast Spirit Sect, Shangqingshan, Baihua Valley, Xuanjian Sect, etc. gathered around the formation to watch the ceremony. Elder Yun and Elder Gu Mo of Qingyang Sect were also among them.
The disciples from various sects who were about to participate in the trial were spread out, waiting to enter the teleportation formation.
"Qingyang Sect, Ziyun Peak's lineage, enter the formation!"
As the red-robed deacon at the top of the teleportation formation shouted, the Qingyang Sect disciples were the first to arrive in front of the formation. The Ziyun Peak disciples entered the formation first. With a flash of inspiration, the radiance shone brightly. When the operation stopped, those disciples were no longer in the formation, and then came the second batch of disciples from the Qingyang Sect. The Longyin Peak lineage entered the formation, one after another.
Xiaozhufeng was the last one from the Qingyang Sect to enter the formation, but just when Fang Yuan was about to enter the formation with all the disciples, he suddenly heard a soft "Hey" behind him, followed by a woman's voice. : "Is that Senior Brother Fang Yuan in front of you?"
Fang Yuan felt slightly surprised and turned his head.
But what they saw behind them was a group of Baihuagu disciples wearing white and red robes, mostly embroidered with various flowers with gold threads. After Qingyang Sect, it was Baihuagu who entered the teleportation formation. They He must have come here to wait.
The person who spoke to Fang Yuan was a woman among the disciples of Baihua Valley. She was tall and beautiful, but her temperament was a little cold. She was wearing a white dress with an elegant peony embroidered on the skirt. Very outstanding...
"Junior sister Xinyao, long time no see!"
Fang Yuan saw her, frowned slightly, and gently called her name.
This woman was none other than Lu Xinyao, the daughter of the city lord of Taiyue City, who had almost married Fang Yuan.
There has been no news from her since she became a disciple of Baihua Valley, but she never expected to meet her at this time.
"I saw it from behind just now, and it was really you!"
When Lu Xinyao saw Fang Yuan turn around, she was slightly startled. She seemed to feel that Fang Yuan was different from before. A faint smile appeared on her face, and she walked forward gently and said, "I didn't accept it before." When my father sent a letter, saying that you had recently returned to Taiyue City to kill the demons who caused trouble under the orders of the Qingyang Sect, the people of Taiyue City are grateful and have already set up a monument for you... "
"It's just my duty to slay demons. Besides, there were many fellow disciples who helped me, so it's not all my merit!"
Fang Yuan replied softly. Seeing that the teleportation array had been activated again, he raised his hand to Lu Xinyao and said: "The teleportation array has been activated. Junior Sister Lu will accompany me. I will enter the formation soon. When the trial is over, I will be promoted to During the immortal meeting, don’t talk about the previous relationship!”
"That's fine, Xinyao hereby wishes Senior Brother Fang Yuan a blockbuster success and a successful career!"
Lu Xinyao's steps that she planned to step forward suddenly stagnated, and she quietly retreated back.
"Thank you so much, Junior Sister Xinyao!"
Fang Yuan thanked her and then entered the teleportation formation.
"Junior sister Xinyao, who is that young man? He is the old friend of the Qingyang Sect you mentioned. What is his name?"
Behind Lu Xinyao, a man in white robe frowned slightly and asked quietly.
"Haha, it's not that person, this is another one!"
Lu Xinyao replied with a smile, with a somewhat emotional look on her face. Fang Yuan's shadow in a green robe always flashed before her eyes, and she was slightly in a trance. When she heard other people's questions, she reacted, smiled slightly, and said: "I forgot to tell you. , this person is even more amazing, it is said that he is a rare genius in three hundred years, haha, he was the top one in our immortal sect exam... "
"Forehead… "
After hearing this, all the Baihua Valley disciples were stunned for a moment and looked at a young man in white.
"If he is at the top of the Immortal Ranking, then who does our little Senior Brother Yuan count?"
Some people even reacted and joked.
"Ouch..."
Lu Xinyao seemed to have just reacted, and chuckled: "I'm sorry, Brother Yuan, I didn't mean to do it. That was my classmate Fang Yuan in Taiyue City. He was originally at the top of the Immortal Ranking, but later, Dao Yuan The true solution was cancelled, so it was replaced by you..."
"It turns out he is Fang Yuan..."
All the Immortal Sect disciples nodded, and it seemed that they had all heard of Fang Yuan's name.
But the man in white, whom Lu Xinyao called "Senior Brother Xiao Yuan", just nodded calmly at this time.
His expression was indifferent, his eyes were cold, and there was no emotion or anger on his face.
Lu Xinyao seemed to have seen what he was thinking, and smiled softly: "Senior brother Xiao Yuan, you don't have to think too much. When you entered our Baihua Valley as the leader of the Immortal Ranking, you became a true disciple as soon as you entered the valley. Now you are even a member of our Baihua Valley." Baihua Valley is said to be the most difficult Lianhua Divine Canon to cultivate in thousands of years. I have cultivated it to the level of Xiaocheng. I am the first person in my generation. Who can compare with you?"
After hearing this, the man in white just smiled softly, very proud of himself.
I refined the manuscript before uploading it, and it is about to be published now. Many people have advised me to save more manuscripts and update them when they are published. However, I feel that updating the manuscript when it is published is not as good as updating a few chapters before it is published. Sincerity, if nothing else, I will add more updates tonight. If nothing else, please give me more recommendation votes at this critical moment!
