Chapter 22 Triple Test
Everyone ran all the way and gradually entered the depths of the Black Rock Forest.
After an hour, Shopkeeper Qin suddenly stopped.
Everyone also stopped and looked at Shopkeeper Qin with suspicion.
At this moment, they were in a small valley that looked ordinary. There was a small path on each side leading to the outside world.
"This is where the treasure of the great thief Yiming is located!"
Shopkeeper Qin said in a deep voice.
As soon as this was said, everyone was shocked.
What a joke, this is obviously just an ordinary small valley, how could the treasure of the great thief Yiming be hidden in such a place!
Seeing that everyone was completely unconvinced, Shopkeeper Qin smiled slightly, and a red disc appeared in his hand at some point, with a large number of twisted lines depicted on it.
"Array disc!"
The moment he saw the red disc, Chu Tian almost blurted it out.
He had seen some array knowledge in a book in the Marquis' Mansion before. Basically, any array requires a warrior to operate it through an array disc or array flag.
Not only Chu Tian, several people at the scene recognized the array disk in the hands of Shopkeeper Qin, and their faces changed slightly.
Could it be that the treasure of the great thief Yiming is really hidden in this small valley?
The next moment, Shopkeeper Qin held the disk, stared at it with his head down, and kept moving around. Soon, a faint red light began to flash on the disk.
And as Shopkeeper Qin kept moving, the red light on the surface of the disk became stronger and weaker.
Not long after, the red light emitted by the disk suddenly reached an unprecedented extreme, looking like a small sun in the dark night.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Qin was overjoyed, and hurriedly raised a finger and tapped the array disk several times, then put his hand on the disk and desperately poured spiritual energy into it.
Boom!
Suddenly, the ground shook violently.
Immediately, under the astonishment of everyone, a red vortex appeared out of thin air in the center of the small valley, rotating slowly.
"The red vortex is the entrance to the formation. Jump in quickly. I can't hold on for long!"
Shopkeeper Qin yelled.
"This..."
"This red vortex looks a bit creepy. Could it really be the entrance to the treasure?"
"It should be true. Shopkeeper Qin has no need to lie to us."
The people present were more or less hesitant and did not jump into the red vortex immediately.
Shopkeeper Qin got anxious and shouted again: "Jump in quickly, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted!"
The men in black who came with Shopkeeper Qin hesitated for a moment, then jumped into the red vortex and disappeared.
"Old Ba, is this red vortex really the entrance to the formation?"
Chu Tian asked in a voice transmission.
Old Ba replied: "Haha, kid, when did you become so scared of death? Jump without worry. Shopkeeper Qin did not lie to you. This red vortex is indeed the entrance to the formation!"
After receiving an affirmative reply from Old Ba, Chu Tian quickly walked to the side of the vortex and jumped down.
Seeing the mysterious person jump in, the others also jumped into the red vortex.
Soon, only Shopkeeper Qin was left.
He took a deep breath, quickly retracted his palm, and then jumped, just falling into the rapidly disappearing red vortex.
The next breath, the red vortex completely disappeared, and the small valley returned to its usual tranquility, as if everything just now had never happened.
After Chu Tian jumped into the red vortex, he immediately felt a rapid fall, and after a few breaths, his feet landed heavily on the ground.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
At the same time, the rest of the people also landed and turned to look around.
At this moment, everyone was standing in a circular open space, surrounded by darkness, only a passage not far ahead, emitting a faint white light.
Subconsciously, everyone walked towards the white passage.
After two or three breaths, everyone came to the entrance of the white passage, stopped, opened their eyes, and looked into the passage.
This passage is not very wide, and can only allow three people to walk side by side at most. As for the faint white light, it comes from the moonstones inlaid on the wall of the passage.
"Look, there is a line of words here at the entrance of the passage!"
Someone shouted.
Everyone hurriedly gathered around and found that there was indeed a line of clearly visible handwriting on the wall on the right side of the entrance of the passage.
"Those who pass the three tests successfully can get my treasure, Yiming will stay!"
The head of the shopkeeper Qin read the handwriting on the wall softly.
Everyone was ecstatic when they heard it.
From this line of handwriting, it can be clearly inferred that this is indeed the location of the treasure of Yiming, a thief who once dominated the entire Wuyan country for twenty or thirty years.
As for the fact that you can get the treasure only after passing the three tests successfully, it will feel normal after a little thought.
After all, the treasure of the great thief Yiming was obtained by hard work and huge risks. How could he give it away so easily!
"From this point of view, this passage is likely to be the first test!"
Shopkeeper Qin whispered, then took a deep breath and stepped into the white passage first.
After taking a few steps in a row, nothing happened. Shopkeeper Qin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then turned around and shouted at the people outside the passage: "Come in quickly!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they entered one after another.
When the last person entered the passage, suddenly, a slight vibration came from the deepest part of the passage, and then a terrifying pressure fell from the sky without warning!
Plop!
Plop!
Plop!
Almost in an instant, all the twenty people who entered the passage were knocked to the ground, their bones and muscles ached, and stars appeared in their eyes.
"Not good, it's a gravity formation!"
In the Immortal Slaying Sword, Ba Lao shouted.
"Gravity formation?"
Chu Tian understood it instantly after hearing it.
The so-called gravity formation is a formation that can create strong gravity out of thin air. It is said that some warriors who prefer to refine their bodies often use gravity formations to temper their bodies.
"No, the gravity in the formation is still slowly increasing!"
Chu Tian supported his arms and slowly raised his upper body. He actually felt that the pressure on his back was obviously stronger than before, and his heart was shocked.
The reason why everyone was suddenly pressed to the ground just now was because the gravity above their heads came too suddenly and was completely caught off guard.
"No, this damn gravity is still increasing!"
Another person found that something was wrong and shouted.
After Qin struggled to get up, he turned his head and shouted: "While the gravity is not strong enough to be scary, let's leave the passage quickly!"
After that, Qin panted and took the lead to walk forward.
After the others struggled to get up, they gritted their teeth and followed.
After Chu Tian got up, he followed closely. As the pressure on his head was increasing at a noticeable speed, Chu Tian was a little anxious and walked very fast.
In less than ten breaths, Chu Tian actually surpassed the shopkeeper Qin who was walking in the front and became the leader.
After surpassing the shopkeeper Qin, Chu Tian also felt incredible.
Logically speaking, among the twenty people present, his cultivation was the weakest, only at the peak of the fifth level of the body refining realm, and the others were generally at the lowest level of the body refining realm.
"How could this happen? That mysterious person actually walked in the front!"
Gongsun Cheng staggered forward while staring at Chu Tian who was in the front.
Although his master did not explain it clearly, he had already regarded the water spirit evil spirit that the mysterious person had photographed as his own.
Now this person is walking in the front, is this person's strength too strong?
But soon, Gongsun Cheng shook his head.
No matter how strong the mysterious person is, how strong can he be? After all, the strong people in the Lingyun Realm cannot enter here!
"This guy!"
Being easily surpassed by Chu Tian, Shopkeeper Qin was quite unhappy.
Although he could not see through the other party's cultivation, at best he was at the peak of the ninth level of the Refining Body Realm, and he had been immersed in this realm for more than 20 years. He didn't expect to be at a disadvantage at this moment!
The rest of the people were all bent over, gritting their teeth and persisting, without thinking too much about why the mysterious person suddenly came to the front.
"Hehe, kid, among the people present, your cultivation is the weakest, but you have taken a big advantage."
Ba Lao laughed.
Chu Tian was startled and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
"It's very simple. This gravity formation is an adaptive formation that can automatically adjust the strength of gravity according to each person's cultivation."
"Of course, you'd better leave this formation as soon as possible, because the gravity is getting stronger and stronger. If you walk slowly, you will eventually be crushed into meat paste on the spot!"
Ba Lao talked freely.
After listening, Chu Tian sighed secretly.
As expected of the first casual cultivator of Qianyang County who once stole all over Wuyan Country, he actually built such a powerful gravity formation. His financial resources are really admirable.
"Ah!!!"
Just as everyone was stumbling forward, a shrill scream suddenly came from behind, and everyone turned their heads to look back.
The black-clothed warrior walking at the back was lying on the ground at this moment, his body tightly pressed against the ground, his facial features bleeding, and his face pale.
This is an eighth-level strong man from Luoshui Pavilion who has been in the body-refining realm.
"Ahhhh..."
Suddenly, a more shrill scream came out of his mouth.
Then, there were bursts of bones breaking and squeezing each other violently, which made people shudder and their backs cold.
Under the attention of everyone, in just two or three breaths, the black-clothed warrior was directly crushed into a pool of blurred meat by the terrible gravity.
Seeing this bloody scene, several people vomited on the spot.
"Hmph! What a waste!" Shopkeeper Qin looked back, snorted coldly with a gloomy face, and then waved his hand, "Hurry up, the last person may end up like him!"
"What!"
Everyone's face changed drastically.
However, after thinking carefully, they soon understood the reason.
The line of words on the wall at the entrance of the passage has been clearly written. In order to obtain the treasure, you must pass three tests.
This sentence may also have another hidden meaning, that is, those who fail the test must die!
Just when everyone was stunned for a while, a scream that seemed to come from hell came from the back!
