Chapter 1174 Flying Sword
Sure enough, when the young man climbed the 300th stone staircase from the bottom, his body sank suddenly, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, dyeing the pure white stone staircase red.
Duan Jian let out a soft sigh. The boy didn't have any mental preparations. In other words, he was ready to increase the gravity by ten kilograms, but in the end, he was suddenly pressed by a thousand kilograms.
This blow caused his mental and physical imbalance, and his internal organs were also severely damaged by this blow! With his physical fitness, it is very difficult to climb the last three hundred stone steps.
Gu Luo has complained about this design more than once, but in the opinion of the elders of Yujianzong, as a disciple of Yujianzong, one must be vigilant at all times to deal with the danger that may come at any time! The first 9,000 stone steps are not the real test, but the last 300 stone steps are!
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, the young man's expression became sluggish, with disbelief showing in his eyes, and he even had a feeling that Yu Jianzong's assessment was a kind of deception.
His lungs seemed to be on fire, and the threat of death was getting closer and closer. The boy even felt that his body seemed to be getting farther and farther away from himself, and his heart became panicked.
A slight sigh sounded in his ears, and the young man suddenly found that he was surrounded by a mass of warm white light, and the injuries on his body were recovering rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The surprise on his face hadn't faded away, the boy suddenly realized something, his body froze, and when he looked up to the top of the mountain again, his whole body suddenly turned into a white light and appeared at the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the sky-climbing ladder soaring into the clouds, the young man couldn't help but shed two lines of tears on his face. He knew that he had failed. He was once so close to success. He was only three hundred stone steps away from the disciples of Yujianzong. It is almost a distance that is within reach, but in the end, this distance has become a natural moat, which is the difference between immortals and mortals!
"It's a pity!" Wei Dong, the elder of punishment, let out a soft sigh. In fact, most of the disciples in Yujianzong are like the boy before, without any proud aptitude. Ba's perseverance passed the assessment, and these disciples who passed the assessment are now the backbone of Yujianzong, and Wei Dong is also one of them.
"Okay, in this examination for recruiting students, only two people passed the first level, Song Jian and Xin Ling!" The punishment elder Wei Dong turned his head to look at the two of them.
Xin Ling seemed a little embarrassed. If she hadn't possessed Gu Yue's sword body, she might not be as good as the young man before, and would have been eliminated long ago. She felt as if she had walked through the back door.
In fact, Xin Ling didn't know how much the disciples in Yujianzong envied her. In Yujianzong, those who have the qualification of sword body and those who don't have the qualification of sword body can reach different heights. This is why Sword Spirit Pond The qualification is so precious in Yu Jianzong!
"Come forward, both of you, and listen to me about the content of the second test!" Wei Dong nodded slightly towards the two of them.
Song Jian and Xin Ling came up and stood in front of the main hall. Behind them was the empty ladder to the sky!
"For the second level, you need to go to Jianchi Lake, which is 500 kilometers away, or collect a red sword grass with perfect appearance, or hunt down a lord-level boss of the same level to obtain its core. The quality of the core must be excellent. Above, or excavating a moon spirit stone with a level of nine, or extracting a bottle of lake essence from Jianchi Lake, or capturing a saber-toothed cub with perfect aptitude..."
"After you're done, just go back here. The task time is three days!" The punishment elder Wei Dong said calmly, looking at the two of them.
It was only at this time that Song Jian suddenly realized why his mentor Duan Jian had to obtain a flying sword before he came to Yujianzong to participate in the entrance examination.
You know, for a distance of 500 kilometers, even if you use the flame light wings, it will take nearly two days and two nights to go back and forth. Although the assessment task is not difficult, the requirements are indeed extremely high. If you are lucky, you may arrive at the back of Jianchi Lake Just encounter it directly, if you are unlucky, maybe even if you collect a hundred red sword grasses, you will not be able to collect a single one with perfect appearance.
If there is a flying sword, the round trip will save a lot of time, and if the time is spent on finding the mission target, the possibility of passing will be greatly increased!
At this moment, Song Jian heard a faint mosquito voice: "Even if you fail the second test, you can become a formal disciple, but the salary and benefits will be halved, so you'd better hurry up and don't grind." Goofing off and wasting time!"
Song Jian was stunned for a moment, he never thought that in front of so many peak masters and elders, Duan Jian would dare to transmit his voice to him. Could it be that he really thought that these elders and peak masters were just decorations!
Some helplessly nodded towards Duan Jian, Song Jian had already seen that several peak masters and elders looked towards Duan Jian with unkind expressions on their faces.
"Ahem, Xin Ling, the second test is also very important, you must treat it with caution, go and come back!" Gu Luo said to Xin Ling with a serious face.
Xin Ling looked a little ignorant, but she still respectfully said to Gu Luo: "Understood, mentor!"
Song Jian couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Duan Jian, and said in his heart: "The gap, this is the gap!"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, take the map, and set off quickly!" The punishment elder Wei Dong threw two unremarkable parchment scrolls to the two of them.
Song Jian took it and saw that the sheepskin scroll looked ordinary, but it actually looked like an electronic map. It not only marked his current location, but also marked the location of Jianchi Lake, and even a faint phantom appeared. Show how to get there safely and quickly.
At this time, Song Jian couldn't help but heard a voice: "Gao De Map will guide you..."
Song Jian couldn't help shouting in his heart: "This is simply a modified GPS navigation map!"
"Flying Sword!" With a soft shout, Xin Ling stepped on a flying sword, and quickly flew towards Jianchi Lake. Under her feet, she stepped on a flying sword emitting a faint silver light.
Gu Luo glanced at Duan Jian with a little pride, and said in a low voice: "This is a flying sword I bought with fifty amethyst coins. Although its attack power is mediocre, its flying speed is not weaker than ordinary golden quality swords." Feijian, it can be regarded as picking up a leak..."
At this time, Duan Jian was regretting the previous sound transmission. Compared with Gu Luo's generous instructions, he seemed too petty.
But after hearing Gu Luo's ostentatious words, an inexplicable expression suddenly appeared on Duan Jian's face, he coughed lightly, and said to Song Jian: "Song Jian, go and come back quickly, don't waste time !"
Song Jian glanced at Duan Jian, nodded slightly, and directly summoned the flying sword, used Yujian to fly, and flew towards Jianchi Lake. In an instant, it turned into a small dot in the air, disappeared, and the speed was almost Xin Ling's. Three times faster.
