Chapter 522: There Is Hope as Long as You Are Alive
“Boom!”
A thunderbolt as thick as a bucket struck from the sky, containing the laws of heaven and earth, and came in a mighty manner.
With such divine power, those below the Spiritualization Stage would die if they were touched, and there was no room for resistance.
However, this thunderbolt suddenly split into three parts on the way down, reducing its power by more than half, and bombarded the three people below respectively.
“Boom!”
Xu Hei was hit on the top of his head. The thunderbolt that could have split him into ashes only knocked him to the ground, his body charred, and his hair burned off.
Han Te and Luo Bai were even more miserable. They were directly bombarded into the ground, their heads bleeding, their bodies broken, and Han Te even had an arm broken.
“Not dead, success!”
The three people were filled with joy at the same time.
In fact, if the power of the law was still there, even if it was only one-third, it would be enough to kill people.
However, after the thunderbolt split, the power of the law disappeared. It was not as simple as reduction, but it was directly gone.
This further verified Xu Hei's guess. The original intention of the person behind the scenes was not to kill one person at each level, but to let them find the correct solution.
Unfortunately, Xu Hei knew very well what kind of people were in the battlefield outside the domain.
How easy is it to find a solution?
Moreover, even if someone found a solution, it was said that three people entered at the same time. As long as one of them had bad intentions and hesitated for even a moment, the consequences would be disastrous!
The power of the law fell, and as many as came would die.
The first level was probably a similar situation. Everyone must sacrifice at the same time, and no one could be faster or slower.
If someone hesitated, the first person who dripped blood would become the only sacrifice and die directly. The rest would survive.
Xu Hei didn't know whether anyone had discovered the clues in the first level and made it all the way to the end without dying.
But from now on.
Xu Hei firmly believed that there would be no reduction in the number of people in their team of three!
After a long time, the thunder tribulation disappeared.
In the center of the formation, a bridge appeared, extending infinitely, leading to the depths of the void.
Xu He looked at the bridge in front of him, then looked at the two people beside him who were seriously injured and dying, and sighed. Let's heal our wounds first.
…………
After passing the three levels, almost all teams lost three people, and some even suffered casualties during the fight, with more casualties.
Teams with less than three people were completely wiped out.
The center of the virtual world.
This is the core area of the virtual world. There is a boundless black plain connecting every level.
The plain is open and dimly lit. There are many tombstones on it, standing everywhere. The inscriptions on the tombstones have long been weathered. I don't know who the owner is. It exudes an ancient and vicissitudes of life, as if it has existed forever.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared on the plain, and a figure appeared.
This person was green all over, with black air on his head, carrying a large coffin, and there were many corpse spots on his body. It was the first Taoist monk who crossed the bridge, Gu Yunsong.
After Gu Yunsong landed on the plain, he clearly felt that this place was different from the previous checkpoints.
The space was stable, the aura was normal, there were no fancy formations, and there was no longer a sense of crisis in his heart.
Gu Yunsong realized that this should be the last place in the virtual world.
"There is no one else here, I am the first to pass the level?" Gu Yunsong's eyes flickered.
He passed through three levels, and the total time he spent was no more than an hour, only the last bridge, the walking time was a little longer.
He had the idea of setting a trap to kill the latecomers, but in a blink of an eye, his eyes were attracted by the tombstones on the plain.
"There are so many tombstones, is this the burial place of the great powers in the upper world?" Gu Yunsong looked around.
It is rumored that the virtual world has the inheritance of the great powers in the upper world. If the rumor is true, the most likely place is this burial place.
The Tomb School has always studied cemeteries. Gu Yunsong came to a tombstone, pinched his hands, and slapped the tombstone, and a strange rune merged into the tombstone.
This is the Tomb School's Dragon-Seeking Technique, which can be used to find the location of the tomb owner based on the tombstone.
When the seal entered, Gu Yunsong's face suddenly turned pale, and he flew backwards as if struck by lightning, with a trace of black water spilling from the corner of his mouth.
"So strong! He has been dead for so many years, but he still can't be calculated." Gu Yunsong's face was uncertain.
He just wanted to see if the tomb owner was still there, but he was hit hard. It seems that this place cannot be desecrated.
After a little thought, he suddenly released a zombie, walked to the tombstone, and slapped it hard.
It didn't move at all.
"Attacking the tombstone will not be counterattacked, but the tomb owner will be injured if it is calculated. It's quite strange. Maybe I can use this." Gu Yunsong thought.
He was the first to arrive. He had to study this place as quickly as possible and take advantage of it.
"Buzz!"
After a while, another light appeared on the plain, and someone was teleported over. I saw a ruddy, pale-skinned, androgynous figure descending here.
It was the Heart Devouring Demon Xiong Yan.
Seeing that it was Xiong Yan, Gu Yunsong gave up the idea of killing him. The opponent's strength was similar to his, and he would not get any good results.
"Oh? There is actually someone faster than me." Xiong Yan glanced at Gu Yunsong, licked his lips, and smiled: "Congratulations to Brother Gu for winning the first place. Brother Gu's methods are well deserved."
He clasped his fists and secretly cursed the Yin and Yang evil spirits for ruining his good deeds, holding him back for a long time, and forcing him to waste a Hunyuan blood bead.
Otherwise, this first place belongs to him.
Gu Yunsong just snorted and ignored him.
Xiong Yan also discovered that there were many tombstones here, his eyes flickered, and he smiled and said: "Friend ancient Taoist, studying these tombstones is boring. Why don't you and I work together to ambush, whoever will kill whom, and eliminate the competitors. This is the best way!"
Gu Yunsong originally planned to refuse, but he suddenly thought of the magic of these tombstones and said with a smile: "Okay, I have exactly what I meant."
…………
Three days later.
On an isolated island altar.
Nine-Headed Insect, Hai Teng, and Xiong Dabao were all lying on the altar. The three monsters were pale and angry, and their blood had dyed all the blood channels red.
A portal also appeared on the altar, which was the door to the next level.
They rested for three full days before they recovered and barely opened their eyes.
"I...am not dead?"
Xiong Dabao raised his head weakly and looked at his two companions.
Hydra and Haiteng also woke up at the same time.
The three demons looked at each other, sat down cross-legged, took out a pill and drank it.
Before, they had a melee as agreed, but their strengths were almost the same. No matter how they fought, they could never tell the winner.
Perhaps it was God's will that after the three parties tied, they decided to sacrifice together.
The result is obvious. They each lost one-third of their lives and opened the door to the next level.
Although he is not dead, he has lost half his life and it will take a long time to recover.
"It's good that you're not dead. There's always a way out. We made the right bet!" The Nine-Headed Insect's eyes were firm.
They don't know what they will face next, but as long as they don't die, there is hope.
