"It's just the first level. It tests the laws of gold and the strength of the physical body. He just took advantage of it. The following levels test comprehensive understanding. You can't go far just by relying on brute force." Elder Duanshui snorted coldly.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw in the water mirror that Ye Feng had walked into the light door on the second floor.
The second floor of the Sky Tower, Wood Pass.
This is a primeval forest full of vitality, but there is a murderous intention hidden in it. Countless thick vines were like giant pythons, twining from all directions. The vines were covered with barbs and flashed with green light.
At this time, Ling Jianchen was among them.
His sword flashed brightly, and his body moved around, cutting off the incoming vines one by one. But these vines grow endlessly. If one is cut off, ten more will grow out, endless and extremely difficult to control.
"The law of wood lies in 'life'. If you want to break the situation, you must find the source of life and kill it." Elder Xuanchen said slowly.
Ling Jianchen obviously also understood this truth. While resisting, he scanned the entire space with his spiritual consciousness, looking for the core of the formation.
Soon, he locked onto a unique towering ancient tree.
"Found it!"
His eyes condensed, and his whole body turned into a sharp sword, soaring into the sky, ignoring the vines that were wrapping around him, and allowed them to leave traces on his body-protecting immortal essence.
"One sword, shocking!"
His man and sword merged into one in mid-air, turned into a stream of light, and stabbed hard into the core of the ancient tree!
"Boom!"
The ancient tree exploded, and the vines all over the sky withered instantly and turned into fly ash.
Ling Jianchen fell to the ground, his face slightly pale. It was obvious that the sword just now took a lot of damage from him.
He glanced at the screen and found that the word "二" also lit up behind Ye Feng's name.
"Hmph, have we reached the second level so soon? It seems that the physical body is powerful, which does have some advantages. But that's it!" Ling Jianchen's eyes were full of cold pride, and he rushed directly to the third level without stopping.
He wants Ye Feng to know what the real gap is!
However, as soon as he stepped forward with his front foot, Ye Feng stepped onto the second floor with his back foot.
Facing the overwhelming poison ivy, Ye Feng's reaction once again surprised everyone.
Instead of resisting, he took a deep breath with an intoxicated expression on his face.
"Well, the life essence is so strong, I just feel a little hungry."
The next moment, he opened his mouth.
"The Art of Returning All Things to Origin!"
A terrifying devouring power erupted from his mouth, forming a huge whirlpool.
The vines that were originally menacing and wanted to tear him apart, when they came into contact with this devouring power, seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and made a fearful "hissing" sound.
They tried frantically to retreat, but it was too late.
The vines all over the sky, along with the vitality of the entire forest, were pulled by the vortex, turning into green energy torrents, pouring crazily into Ye Feng's mouth.
But in the blink of an eye, the entire second floor space became deathly silent, and all the plants withered and turned into powder.
Ye Feng burped and patted his belly with satisfaction.
"It tastes good, but the quantity is a bit small, and it's not enough to fit between teeth."
After saying that, he walked unsteadily into the light door leading to the third floor.
There was silence in the square.
If we talk about the first level, they can also explain it as "the physical body is strong and takes advantage".
How to explain this second level?
Eat it alive?
Swallowed up the energy of the entire level?
What kind of devilish technique is this!
"Fat Chiyang...you...are you sure this is the right way to practice?" Elder Duanshui's voice was trembling.
Elder Chiyang was also confused. He opened his mouth and held back a sentence for a long time: "Pure...pure and peaceful, definitely not magic! Yes, definitely not magic! This is an ancient secret method, a lost secret method!"
When he said this, he didn't have any confidence.
The elders looked at each other, and they all saw deep shock in each other's eyes. How many secrets does this boy named Ye Feng hide?
Is he really a casual cultivator from the mortal realm?
Even if this is the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor, it’s not so outrageous!
The third floor of the Sky Tower is the Water Pass.
What you see is an endless ocean. The black water exudes biting cold and strong corrosiveness. There is nothing on the sea except a lonely stone platform. The light door leading to the fourth floor is on the stone platform.
When Ling Jianchen stepped into this place, his brows furrowed tightly.
He could feel that there was a powerful water monster dormant in the black sea water.
"Crash!"
With a loud noise, the sea surface exploded, and a huge hydra monster broke out of the water and locked onto Ling Jianchen.
Every head spits out attacks.
There are extremely corrosive venoms, cold air that can freeze the soul, and water arrows that condense into substance...
For a time, nine kinds of attacks intertwined into a dragnet, sealing all Ling Jianchen's escape routes.
"Evil beast!"
Ling Jianchen remained calm in the face of danger, the long sword in his hand buzzed, and the condensed sword energy burst out of his body, forming an airtight sword energy shield around him.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!"
Countless attacks landed on the shield, causing ripples in circles, but they were still unable to break through.
"What a sword energy protector! It integrates offense and defense without any flaws!" In the square, some knowledgeable monks couldn't help but admire it.
Elder Duanshui's tense expression also softened a little.
"Sword cultivators must move forward without hesitation. But the true way of swordsmanship is not only about attacking." He spoke calmly, as if he was giving instructions, but also as if he was showing off, "Defending is also part of the way of swordsmanship. Only by guarding your heart and guarding your square inch can you strike out with the most powerful sword."
In the illusion, Ling Jianchen immediately launched a counterattack after blocking the first wave of attacks.
His toes were a little bit in the void, his body was like lightning, and he took the initiative to face the hydra demon.
"Splitting Sword Shadow!"
He thrust out his sword, and the sword tip trembled slightly in mid-air, and actually transformed into nine identical sword lights, stabbing each of the nine heads of the Hydra demon.
This move was so exquisite that many people were stunned.
The nine-headed snake demon roared angrily when it was in pain, biting its nine heads crazily, and its huge snake tail set off a huge wave, slamming towards Ling Jianchen.
Ling Jianchen's figure shuttled between the huge waves and the snake's head, the sword light flashed, and every time he drew his sword, it would leave a deep wound on the snake demon's body.
This is a hard fight.
A full quarter of an hour later, Ling Jianchen seized an opportunity and used his killer move.
"A sword that reaches the sky!"
He poured all his immortal energy into the sword body, and the light from the sword even covered the light gate in the sky.
A slash of the sword seemed to split the ocean in half.
"Pfft!"
The nine heads of the Hydra were all chopped off by this sword!
The huge body rolled a few times in the sea water, then turned into light spots and disappeared.
Ling Jianchen panted heavily, his face became even paler, and the hand holding the sword was trembling slightly. This level was more difficult than he imagined.
He raised his head and glanced at the external light screen, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
The word "three" also lit up behind Ye Feng's name at some point!
"He...he has reached the third floor too? How could it be so fast!"
