Chapter 238 Entry Trial
As the insect wave moved forward, all the Gu masters estimated the distance in their minds and knew that they had traveled approximately two miles.
"Hua Hua..." The sound of water flowing into my ears, the water vapor was hazy.
A section of the river passes in front of it, one end is connected to the mountain, and the other end is submerged underground.
The water is cool and cool, like an underground river.
When they arrived here, everyone thought they were coming from the ground to the underground. Little did they know that the place they were waiting for first was actually the water cave at the foot of the mountain.
The insect tide slowly stopped, and all the Gu Masters couldn't help but become nervous.
"The trial of my sect is held once every three years, and each time it is a little different. I wonder why this trial of my identity as a foreign sect is!" Ye Yunmeng whispered.
Liu Feng's true body was in front, and his clone was a little behind, and he was not interested in the outer sect identity test.
When you reach this position, you can smell a medicinal smell. Different from other medicinal materials, it is the unique smell of insect medicine.
When everyone present was wondering about the upcoming trial, another black stream rolled in from ahead.
There were no soldier Gu in this much smaller insect wave. There were strange Gu insects in the middle, human-sized and similar in appearance to various kinds of exotic Gu.
There are as many as four hundred of this kind of strange Gu, and the auras they emit are all of the second grade.
Liu Feng took a look at it and recognized that it was transformed by a Gu Master. There was no foreign Gu in his body. He was pushed out by the Immortal Slaughter Sect, presumably to be used as nourishment for the new disciples.
There are nearly 1,100 newcomers, and there are many Gu masters who recognize this human-shaped strange Gu. Lu Yao, who is in the Jue Sect, looks very familiar to him.
Compared to Insect Valley, the Immortal Slaughter Sect is larger in scale, and they are also used as nourishment. In front of them are all disciples of the second generation transforming into gu.
"Rumble..." The roar sounded.
As these strange Gus of different colors arrived, the insect tide surged, and painful howls suddenly sounded among the crowd.
Others looked sideways and saw that there were more than sixty Gu masters feeding Gu on the spot.
At the same time, five people were taken deep by the insect tide, and Ye Yunmeng on the side of the eclipse gate was one of them.
Seeing this, the clever Gu Master suddenly woke up and realized that the person who was bitten by the Gu insect was over twenty-five years old, but was not strong enough, and was trying to pass himself off as a disciple of the Immortal Transformation Sect.
Those over the age of twenty-five are not eligible to participate in the trial, unless their strength reaches the level of the protector of the sect.
The test waiting for those five people will also be different from the disciple test.
"Buzzing..." Under the guidance of two giant soldier Gus, the insect tide split into two.
The third-grade and above Gu worms retreated to the outer circle, leaving only the second-grade and first-grade Gu worms inside, forming two long corridors.
A long corridor on the left is much shorter and flows into the underground river.
A long corridor on the right extends inwards, with four hundred human-sized second-grade exotic Gu placed along the way.
With a "pop" sound, a medicine man squeezed out from the cavity of the giant soldier Gu insect, throwing out a large amount of mucus.
This medicine person looks like he has just woken up from a deep sleep, his eyes are clear and there is no trace of confusion.
The one who woke up was not the medicine man himself, but the Gu Master who was probably behind the scenes.
No need to look further, Niu Yun muttered: "The fourth-grade medicine man must be controlled by the elder of the Immortal Slaughter Sect, but I don't know if he is using the spirit-sending Gu technique like my grandfather."
More than sixty people were feeding the poison, and there were more than a thousand people present. Everyone looked at the medicine man hanging on the soldier's poison.
The lower half of the lower body was still inside the insect's cavity. The middle-aged medicine man pointed at two "long corridors" and a hoarse and unpleasant voice echoed.
"You wait until you come to the Immortal Transformation Sect. This sect will not interrupt your way of survival. It is still too late to retreat now."
"There are two roads, one is the way to leave the sect, and the other is the way to pass the test of identity of another sect."
He said that it was still too late to retreat, but he could not just let people leave. He had to walk through the shorter Gu corridor on the left, which was just for feeding the Gu.
Take the Gu Insect Corridor on the right, and if you go through it, you can get the status of a disciple of the outer sect. There are 420 levels of exotic Gu to nourish them along the way.
Choosing one of the two, the Gu masters who came out of the canyon all had fierce personalities and rushed to the right.
When a swarm of Gu comes, being squeezed in the back means that you have to hold on longer, and the Gu master who gets ahead can grab more nutrients.
In this way, the more timid you are, the more likely you are to die miserably.
Compared with the Gu Masters who came out from the bottom, at this moment, there are disciples among the Gu Masters in the seven branch sects who are hesitant and want to take the left passage to retreat.
It's a pity that these lifelong disciples were brought here by their senior brothers and sisters, and they couldn't help themselves.
When they came, their respective sect masters had already told them that they would be rewarded if they passed the test and branched out into different sects. How could they come here in vain? It was inevitable that they would fight to the death here.
On the Eclipse Gate side, Liu Feng didn't hesitate at all. Like the other third-generation body Gu masters, he had already settled on the Gu Insect Corridor on the right.
The group was missing Ye Yunmeng. Not counting him, there were twenty-eight Gu masters.
When he walked to the right, no one chose the path to the underground river, and they all followed him.
All the Eclipse Gate Gu Masters, whether they were disciples or foreign Gu Masters who got their quota by giving gifts, twenty-eight people crowded together, close to Xiang Liufeng's body and clone.
Even the second-generation disciple among the visitors was a little worried when facing this Gu insect corridor.
"I hope that senior brother will take care of junior sister. Junior sister will only obey senior brother and listen to senior brother in everything." A strange fragrance that made people instinctively restless floated, and the person seeking help from Liu Feng was Xu Manxiang, who was in the middle of his second life.
When she came, the elder who took this girl to the eclipse gate even asked Liu Feng to get closer to her!
Liu Feng didn't even look back, and walked forward quickly as if he hadn't heard anything.
Facing the Gu insects below the third level, he didn't even need to release the Gu insects from his body, he just resisted with his physical body.
The strange Gu "Human Demon" strengthens the body and exudes the aura of death, which cannot be easily approached by Gu insects below the third level.
In addition, he also has Buddhist cultivation. Once the Great Sun Buddha Fire is released, these Gu insects will die as many as they come before the Buddha's power is exhausted.
Soon, all the Gu masters crowded to the right.
The medicine man nodded with satisfaction at the sight of the giant soldier Gu insect's cavity, and then billowing poisonous mist spewed down from the mouthparts of the soldier Gu.
This poison is harmless to the Gu Master, but the group of Gu below immediately rioted after coming into contact with the poisonous mist.
"Buzzing..."
The sharp chirping of insects was loud, and the "corridor" rolled up from both sides, submerging all the Gu masters in it.
The vision was pitch black. Except for the powerful Gu Master like Liu Feng, everyone else released the Gu worms in their bodies, and also performed various Gu techniques.
One after another, figures covered in Gu were running wildly in the black tide. Some were rushing forward, while others were fighting for the humanoid Gu along the way.
Liu Feng's body and clones went hand in hand. Not a single voodoo insect came out of his body, and he was not seen using voodoo techniques to defend himself.
The Ximen group who crowded behind him felt Liu Feng's cold-bloodedness, and they didn't take care of him at all.
Even Duan Miao and Qiu Yu, who were planted with the "Yan Tong" sub-gu by Liu Feng, were loyal to him, but they didn't get any help.
If they can't even pass this level, it's useless for Liu Feng to ask them, so it's better to let them feed Gu.
Niu Yun puffed out her cheeks and stared angrily at Liu Feng's back.
With the three kinds of strange poisons arranged for her by her grandfather, it would not be difficult to get through this level. However, she suspected that Liu Fengbai would take advantage of her grandfather and would not help her obtain the status of a direct descendant.
"Liu, you can't break your promise! Otherwise, I will ask my grandpa to clean up the mess afterwards."
Niu Yun's body was covered in layers of ice, and there were more than twenty black shadow-like sub-gu attached to her upper body.
Liu Feng kept walking and glanced at the woman casually.
The three kinds of strange Gu all shed their skin once, and one of them can control water and turn into ice. Zhen Shanren has this Gu.
But there are two other kinds of strange poisons on Niu Yun's body. Although he has not used any magic skills, Liu Feng cannot identify their origins. They are probably the rare strange poisons that Niu Yunhua worked so hard to get for his granddaughter.
"Liu will keep his word." A strange smile appeared on Liu Feng's lips.
What he cares about is the benefits in Niu Yuanhua's hands, and what Niu Yun said about asking grandpa to deal with him is difficult to think about.
The fourth-grade medicine man has fallen into his hands. Even if Niu Yuanhua brings all his belongings to deal with him, Liu Feng can at least leave calmly.
If the opponent is careless and is approached by someone with a fourth-grade medicine, and there is no way to save his life, he can still hit his weak point with every move and take his life.
Wails were heard one after another from behind, and a disciple from one lifetime was buried in the mouths of a group of Gu.
The Eclipse Gate Gu Master was not the only one who fell among the group of Gu. In less than a hundred feet, there were more than a thousand people who chose this path, and two hundred of them had become the food of the group of Gu.
Liu Feng ignored it and pushed forward unhurriedly. The clone stared at the third generation body Gu master with "empty pupils".
Pei Liang and the other three who had obtained the Elder Token's third-incarnation body had no Gu insects to protect them. The Gu insects that pounced on them were like moths to the fire, turning into dead insects layer by layer.
Looking back, the methods of the third incarnations of each branch sect are slightly worse, but they are also extraordinary and comparable to the third incarnations.
It is normal for them to be stronger than ordinary third-incarnation bodies. Under the age of twenty-five, either they have the opportunity, or there are fourth-incarnation Gu masters in the clan who are in charge of them, and they get the opportunity by force even if they don't have the opportunity.
Among the Juemen group, the female Gu Master who had attacked him acted strangely.
This person used the "Red Moo" Gu technique to spread the venom, hugged him from left to right, only looked after the female disciples of Jue Sect, and ignored the male disciples.
"Among the three generations of body Gu masters, there is still someone with such eccentricities!"
Among the monks Liu Feng met, even martial arts masters needed to understand the martial arts to reach the four realms, but Gu masters were the only ones who did not insist on cultivating their minds.
As far as is known, Gu masters are the most emotional among monks, but people with twisted minds and quirks are still extremely rare.
As for this woman's behavior of taking care of her fellow Gu Masters, no Gu Master of our sect came forward to stop her.
Among the people present, it is difficult for the disciples in the second life to take care of others, and only the third life has this ability.
As the leader of the Eclipse Sect said, everyone really depends on their ability in the trial.
In this case, there is no need for him to worry too much about winning a spot for Niu Yun in the subsequent direct lineage test.
As for whether Niu Yun can assume the status of a direct disciple after entering the school and fight with other direct disciples, whether he lives or dies has nothing to do with him.
"Buzzing..." The buzzing of insects in front weakened, and light emerged from the black tide.
Figures wrapped in Gu worms gathered together, and some people passed the trial, followed by ecstatic roars.
Liu Feng walked through the "corridor" of Gu insects, and within the naked eye's field of vision, there were two more roads in front of him.
A road on the left leads straight into the depths, and at the end is a huge valley, where most of the disciples of this sect are.
The road on the right leads to rows of grottoes. At a glance, there are as many as five or six hundred stone chambers in all the grottoes.
In the darkness, in each stone room, there is a white-robed Gu Master sitting cross-legged. Judging from his clothes, he does not look like a wild cultivator, but he may be a disciple of our sect.
A pair of eyes looked out from inside the grotto, looking at the newcomers here, as if they were sizing up prey.
New people kept walking through the Gu Insect Corridor. After a stick of incense passed, the insect tide surging behind them gathered again and surged away like a tidal wave. It was unknown where they were going.
Without the Gu swarm, the surrounding scene was clear. There were only more than 400 people who survived, and the rest had no bones left, and they were all fed by Gu.
After Liu Feng's death, the eclipse gate's group of Gu masters lost eighteen people, with only ten remaining. Among them, only four survived in the first life, and two died in the second life.
Maybe he was unlucky enough to be besieged by second-grade Gu masters on the way, or maybe he was plotted by other Gu masters. Liu Feng didn't go to see it, so we don't know.
The two giant soldier Gu moved, and in the insect cavity of the flat soldier Gu, the medicine man who had spoken previously spoke again.
"Those who survived, I would like to congratulate you. You have obtained the status of a disciple of my sect's outer sect."
"Two roads, go into the valley. After that, you will be a disciple of the outer sect. Go into the grotto, choose one person to kill, and take off their waist badge as proof. If you succeed, you will be able to obtain the status of a disciple of the inner sect."
There were many fierce ones among the more than four hundred Gu Masters. Even though they knew that the Gu Masters in the cave were not easy to mess with, they still strode away.
"They are most likely disciples of the outer sect of the Immortal Transformation Sect. At least they are Gu Masters who have lived in our sect for more than three years. Are they killing each other with them?"
"If you can live for more than three years, the disciples of the outer sect should not be underestimated."
Duan Miao and Qiu Yu looked at each other and saw Liu Feng walking towards the grotto. They gritted their teeth and followed.
The remaining eight members of the Eclipse Sect and the four surviving first-life disciples ran straight towards the valley without even thinking about it.
Niu Yun, Xu Manxiang and other four people walked behind Liu Feng and looked into the entrances of the many caves, each choosing their opponent. Of course, they were not willing to accept their status as disciples of the outer sect.
There are five to six hundred stone chambers, each independent, with one person selected from each.
When Liu Feng's body and clones walked to two adjacent stone rooms, the mere presence of the "Human Demon's" deathly aura on their bodies made the two people inside look desperate.
Liu Feng fought all the way and has grown up to this day, naturally developing the aura that a strong man should have.
In addition, being contaminated by evil things, no matter how vicious a Gu Master is, he will inevitably feel fear in face to face.
"Senior brother, can you let me live? This is my waist card."
"It's not easy for me to get to where I am today. In half a month, I will be able to acquire the third level of strange Gu. I hope that senior brother will be merciful..."
In the two adjacent stone rooms, separated by a stone wall, two young men had the same pleading look on their faces. They offered their waist cards, not daring to attack the white-haired Gu Master in front of the cave entrance.
They were at the lower end of the Immortal Transformation Sect and were sent here to test newcomers. When they encountered weak people, they would feed on each other's poison. If they bumped into strong people, they would suffer. Life and death depended on luck.
"Choose anyone to kill...this is what your elders say, no one will be left alive."
Liu Feng's tone was calm, his body and avatar were the same person, his expression and tone were the same.
After the words fell, the yin fire spread out from under the clone's feet, while the main body remained motionless, with a compound eye squeezed out of its face.
Two miserable howls sounded in no particular order. One person was burned by the evil fire of the "human demon", and the other one burned himself with poison fire after being possessed by a hallucination.
