When everyone has the ability to reach the top, the competition becomes how to completely crush the opponent.
Either ride on a horse and wait for work at the top to intercept the latecomers.
Either strike first in the middle, kill your competitors, and then leisurely climb to the top.
Originally, the four people in the first echelon were all about the same strength, and no one could do anything to anyone.
They have the advantage of being in the front. They can advance, attack, retreat or defend.
Who would have thought that Lin Luochen would burst out of nowhere and deliberately fall behind, yet he was almost unaffected by the illusion!
Watching him eradicate dissidents along the way, and now following him with eager eyes, the four of them were horrified.
They no longer care about restraining each other, and rush upwards with all their strength, just wanting to pass this mental journey as soon as possible.
After all, this old man is always with them, and he may come up to finish them off at any time when they are trapped in the illusion.
At the moment, the four of them are on the 800th level. The pressure here is huge, and the illusion is so strong that they can stay in place for a long time.
Xu Huaian was powerless and relied on Mr. Meng's protection to hold on.
Dao Wuya is an innate Tao body, with a clear Tao mind and able to see through illusions, which is relatively easy.
Ji Lingyu seems to have some secret skills, and can skillfully resolve some of the pressure, while still maintaining some agility in his body.
Chu Kuang doesn't have so many tricks. He relies solely on his strong body and extremely tough Taoist heart to resist interference.
The speed of the four of them was already extremely fast, but Lin Luochen still caught up with him, causing the people below to scream in surprise.
"Xu Huaian! Run! All my wealth is weighing on you!"
"Fairy Lingyu! Be careful of that old man behind you!"
"This demon thief is so cunning, he is hiding behind him!" Counterattack..."
"Xu Huaian and the others are really unlucky, they met this unreasonable boy..."
"No! He's catching up!"
… …
Hearing the exclamations one after another, the four people in front knew that Lin Luochen was approaching without looking back.
At this moment, they have stepped onto the nine hundredth level, and each step up is like crossing a natural chasm.
Even Dao Wuya, who seemed quite calm along the way, began to falter.
Although Lin Luochen's speed is slightly slower, his pace is still steady and he is still faster than the four people in front!
Seeing that he was about to be overtaken, Xu Huaian shouted anxiously: "Let's work together to deal with him first! Otherwise, no one will be able to reach the summit safely!"
Dao Wuya and Ji Lingyu looked at each other and nodded helplessly.
After all, this old man may still have some mercy towards Chu Kuang, but he will never be soft on them!
The three of them all looked at Chu Kuang, who glanced at him and snorted coldly.
"I will not help the one who beats you!"
He ignored him after saying this, gritted his teeth and continued upward.
Xu Huaian and the other three looked at each other and did not dare to take action against Chu Kuang easily.
If he was forced to join forces with Lin Luochen behind him, it would be a real disaster.
The three of them formed a temporary alliance and continued their ascent, leaving one or two people to guard against Lin Luochen.
Soon, Lin Luochen appeared behind him, and Xu Huaian took the lead in slashing him with his sword.
"Go back!"
Dao Wuya was not to be outdone, and wielded the sharp sword intention that contained Dao Yun.
Ji Lingyu threw out the magic talisman while half asleep and half awake, trying to increase the pressure on Lin Luochen.
Lin Luochen snorted coldly and said, "If you don't give way obediently, how dare you attack me?"
He did not dodge or dodge, the green lotus swayed in the sea of consciousness, and he calmed down in an instant, and slashed out with the dragon bone sword in his hand.
"Sword River!"
"Misty Hidden!"
Ji Lingyu woke up from the illusion and cast a water spell. A strange water vapor filled the surroundings, interfering with Lin Luochen's spiritual judgment.
"Toppled to the ground!"
The Taoist Eight Diagrams appeared at Dao Wuya's feet, reversing the orientation and disrupting the five elements, putting Lin Luochen in danger several times.
In contrast, Xu Huaian's threat was the least, and he only continued to interfere with his sword skills.
After all, although Mr. Meng is in the Mahayana realm, he is not good at attacking, and Xu Huaian's own skills are also slightly inferior.
If it were Chu Kuang who intercepted him here, Lin Luochen would never be so calm.
But the road of inquiry is not broad. The three of them are ready to fight. After forming an alliance, their strength cannot be underestimated.
As long as Lin Luochen shows a slight flaw, he will be attacked like a violent storm.
The three of them, Xu Huaian, took care of each other. Even if one of them lost his mind, the other two could still help.
Lin Luochen's way forward was completely blocked, and it was difficult to break through for a while.
The four of them fought and advanced like this, with Taoist symbols flying, water vapor filling the air, and sword aura flowing horizontally.
Fighting all the way, the four finally reached level 950 and above.
On this last stretch of the road, even Lin Luochen could no longer take it easy.
The huge pressure here is enough to crush an ordinary Jindan cultivator, and even Lin Luochen's strong physique is beginning to feel the strain.
In the fantasy world, regrets and obsessions from the past and present life came one after another, and he began to be seriously disturbed by the fantasy world.
Lin Luochen was like this, not to mention the others. Ji Lingyu, the only woman among the four, was the first to feel depressed.
Taichang Zong is not good at refining the body. Although she has secret methods to resist illusions, her physical strength is ultimately a weakness.
At this moment, she was still focusing on using her spiritual power to protect herself, and it was already difficult for her to move under such pressure.
Xu Huaian and Dao Wuya were slowed down by her, but they did not dare to leave her easily for fear of being defeated one by one by Lin Luochen.
What is surprising is that Dao Wuya, the holy son of the Taigan Holy Land, actually has a strong tendon under his Taoist robe.
His physical strength was strong, unaffected, and his attacks were powerful, becoming the strongest resistance for the three of them to intercept Lin Luochen.
At this time, Chu Kuang had reached the 980th level, more than 20 steps ahead of everyone else, and was about to reach the top first.
Lin Luochen made several breakthroughs to no avail. Instead, he suffered some losses due to the interference of the illusion.
There seems to be only one choice left before him: retreat!
Otherwise, as he continues to go up, the distance between the two sides will be too close, and if he falls into an illusion, he will be easily attacked.
In this way, a few people can only maintain the status quo and reach the end point "peacefully".
The premise is that after the three people reach the top, they are still willing to give him a chance to go up!
A cold light flashed in Lin Luochen's eyes, the flames of karma were ignited, and the power in his body suddenly exploded, leaping through several steps like an arrow from a string!
"No! He wants to forcefully attack! Stop him!"
Xu Huaian shouted, taking the lead in throwing out a set of strange sword moves, and a series of sword lights came over him.
Happy to die, Lin Luochen's body swayed and he fell into a deeper illusion.
He saw an invasion from the outside world in the future, and he and Qu Lingyin turned against each other, and he resisted the foreign enemy alone and died...
The terrible illusion disturbed his mind, and the three people in front seized this fleeting opportunity and attacked with all their strength!
As everyone screamed, Lin Luochen was about to be shot down, but a pair of huge blood-colored wings suddenly spread out from behind him!
The pair of wings waved flexibly like arms, blocking all the attacks of the three people.
"Damn it! It's this damn thing again!"
Xu Huaian couldn't help but curse secretly, unable to do anything about this weird blood shadow.
And the blood wings fluttered, carrying Lin Luochen like an arrow off the string, and rushed upward again!
"Seal of the Universe!"
"Water Dragon's Roar!"
"Wave Devouring Sword Technique!"
The attacks of the three people came, overwhelming towards Lin Luochen like a turbulent wave.
At this moment, the green lotus in Lin Luochen's sea of consciousness moved slightly, and the illusion was shattered.
He opened his eyes suddenly, slashed out with the dragon bone sword in his hand, and shouted angrily: "Open the sky!"
The terrifying sword intent tore apart the attack in front of him. The three of them were forced to stagger back by the sword, and were instantly trapped in the illusion.
Lin Luochen passed by, but before he could fight back, he fell into an illusion again.
Fortunately, Qu Lingyin controlled the blood wing and blocked the follow-up attack for him in time.
After a moment, Lin Luochen came to his senses, quickly stepped upwards, and finally opened the distance between him and the three of them.
In this hellish place, he didn't dare to resist the attack of three people, so the best thing to do was to distance himself first.
Xu Huaian gritted his teeth and continued upward, but his body was shaking violently and reached the limit.
Meng Lao's soul power was consumed a lot and he said weakly: "Boy Xu, stop chasing, your body has reached its limit..."
Xu Huaian stared at Lin Luochen, who was only a few steps away, with unwillingness in his eyes, and he resolutely continued to chase with blood burning.
"Meng Lao, I can't lose, I can still chase!"
Meng Lao sighed and began to burn his soul power to share the pressure with him, and said solemnly: "Let's go through together!"
Xu Huaian nodded and tried his best to chase after him, his eyes began to lose focus.
Hooking visions and pressure came like a tidal wave, and he seemed to see the terrible backlash of good fortune.
Lin Luochen's sarcastic face, Wen Fang's "shy" face, and his own tragic state of ruin...
Fear, unwillingness, and despair instantly swallowed him up, almost breaking his heart and making his whole body stand on end!
"No... I don't want..."
But the overwhelming hatred for Lin Luochen strangely supported him to continue upward.
Seeing that Lin Luochen had surpassed him, Dao Wuya no longer waited for Ji Lingyu and rushed forward alone.
Hence above, Chu Kuang's bones were cracking, his mouth was bleeding, and he was still climbing up with eyes wide open.
But soon, Lin Luochen caught up with him, but did not make a move, and just continued upward.
Although Chu Kuang was unwilling to do so, he could only watch him surpass.
In the end, under the gaze of countless shocked eyes, Lin Luochen was the first to step onto the 999th step!
The terrifying pressure at the top of the stairs instantly enveloped him. His body trembled and he seemed to be half kneeling.
At the same time, Lin Luochen's eyes were in a trance, but he was controlled by the last illusion and could not get rid of it.
· Upon seeing this, the people below immediately seized this last opportunity to climb to the top.
It is meaningless to attack Lin Luochen at this time. He has weird blood wings and has successfully reached the top.
The best solution is to take this opportunity to reach the top!
Chu Kuang was the closest, roared, used up his last strength to leap forward, and jumped onto the last step.
Qu Lingyin, who controlled the blood wing behind Lin Luochen, hesitated for a moment, but still did not slap him down.
The moment he landed, Chu Kuang was directly pressed down on the stone steps by the terrifying pressure, and he pushed himself up with great difficulty.
Just as he was half-kneeling on the ground, struggling to resist the pressure and illusion, Lin Luochen finally got rid of the illusion.
"Why does Fellow Daoist Chu need to perform such a great gift?"
Chu Kuang instantly broke through and turned over, lying on his back on the ground, cursing: "Your uncle!"
Lin Luochen smiled slightly, forced himself to stand up straight, turned around slowly, and looked down at Xu Huaian and others with a smile.
"Are you going down by yourself, or should I give you a ride?"
Xu Huaian, Dao Wuya and others were still two or three steps away from reaching the top, and their scalps went numb when they saw this.
Xu Huaian still wanted to imitate Chu Kuang, so he jumped with all his strength and forcibly jumped several steps.
But Lin Luochen suddenly raised his foot and kicked Xu Huaian down in mid-air!
"Fellow Daoist Xu, you'd better go down and have a rest!"
"Lin! Fall! Dust!"
Xu Huaian flew backwards, his unwilling roar resounding through the mountain road.
He tried in vain to grab the steps, but couldn't reach them at all and fell downwards.
Lin Luochen looked at Dao Wuya and the others with a smile, and Dao Wuya sighed helplessly.
He was so free and easy that he actually jumped down and gave up on his own initiative.
Behind the two of them, Ji Lingyu took a step forward with difficulty and raised his pale face.
「Lin Daoyou......」
She bit her red lips lightly and looked at Lin Luochen pitifully, which really made me feel pity for her.
Lin Luochen smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, fairy, I have always cared for women."
Ji Lingyu had not had time to be happy when she saw Lin Luochen stretched out his hand and pushed her gently in front of her, pushing her down.
Everyone looked up at the figure at the top. He stood upright. Although his white clothes were a little messy, he had an unparalleled aura that looked down on the world.
Chu Huaiyu suddenly looked at him blankly, as if he had made up his mind, and his eyes became firm.
At this moment, Chu Kuang, who was paralyzed on the side, finally got rid of the illusion, and rolled his eyes angrily when he saw this.
"Stop talking, the people below can't hear... give me a bottle of wine too!"
Lin Luochen chuckled and said, "Aren't you afraid of being called a traitor?"
Chu Kuang sneered, "Why should I, Chu Kuang, care about other people's eyes?"
Lin Luochen threw him a bottle of wine, no longer frowning, and sat down with a smile.
The two of them were speechless for a moment. They just sat on the top step, overlooking the bottom, and drank from one pot after another.
The pressure here is very helpful for tempering the body, and they are not in a hurry to go down.
An hour later, the examination of asking questions officially ended.
Although Lin Luochen had a bad start and was besieged, he made great efforts in the middle and later stages, swept his opponents, took the lead in reaching the top, and won first place again!
Chu Kuang was second, Xu Huaian and Dao Wuya were tied for third, and Ji Lingyu was fifth.
Thanks to Lin Luochen's blessing and his weird bad luck, Murong Qiuzhi also ranked among the top ten, with outstanding results.
Leng Yueshuang was told by Gu Qinghan not to go all out this time and deliberately stopped at level 850.
Although Xu Shoujiang's Taoist mind is tenacious and his body is strong enough, his spiritual power and martial arts are at a disadvantage, and he cannot continue after reaching the 900th level.
This level does not count time, only points are scored according to the level.
The final results are out, Lin Luochen and Chu Kuang have 100%.
Others are converted in proportion to the order and the first two, and rounded off.
Although Xu Huaian and others were only one step away from the finish line, they could only score 99 points.
Ji Lingyu also scored 99 points, but looked at Lin Luochen with an extremely unkind look.
This bastard, where did you push it just now? It must be intentional!
Xu Huaian is even more unwilling to accept it. Although he is one or two points behind every day, he is being pushed away by Lin Luochen step by step!
Looking at Lin Luochen's back as he turned away, he secretly clenched his fists and felt a dull pain in his chest where he had been kicked.
"You bastard, just wait for me!"
Tomorrow's assessment in the Craftsman's Workshop will be randomly selected for the assessment of the monastic arts. He believes that he will definitely be able to draw the elixir.
Compared to Dan Yao, he was absolutely confident that he could crush Lin Luochen!
Lin Luochen didn't know this and took Gu Qinghan straight back to Yunke Lai Inn.
That night, Chu Huaiyu, who had already accepted his fate, came to Yunlaike in disguise and knelt down on one knee when he saw him.
Lin Luochen laughed dumbly and said, "Why did Fairy Huaiyu give such a gift?"
As soon as he said the words, he suddenly felt that these words were familiar, as if he had just said them today.
Coincidentally, both of them have the surname Chu.
Chu Huaiyu looked honest and well-behaved: "Master Lin, Huaiyu sincerely surrenders and is willing to do your best for you!"
"Very good..."
A playful smile appeared at the corner of Lin Luochen's lips, and he picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Your status in the Palace of Purity is not low, tell me what you know."
