The pagoda ascension ceremony was a challenge of opportunity, so it shouldn't be prepared to harm the disciples. It would definitely create many opportunities for survival.
Moreover, to Ling Xiao, who had the Mountain River Martial Soul and could see through everything, was it so easy for him to be eliminated?
Suddenly, a peerless figure appeared in mid-air.
It was the Moon Maiden!
A powerful aura enveloped the entire Inner Sect Square and even enveloped all 50 disciples.
"Welcome, Your Highness!"
Under the lead of the Sect Master Chang Yueying and the Inner Sect Hall Master Tian Yan, the 50 participants of the pagoda ascension ceremony bowed.
The Moon Maiden nodded slightly and didn't say anything. Her eyes were fixed on the top of the Moonlight Pagoda as if she could see through the layers of fog and see what was at the top.
After a while, the moonlight in the sky suddenly became very bright and offset the daytime sunlight. It was like a golden thread that enveloped the surroundings of the Moonlight Pagoda.
Vaguely, one could see a majestic palace floating in the moonlight.
This scene was filled with a mysterious and ancient aura, causing all the disciples to swallow their saliva.
"Moonlight Illuminates the Sun, Divine Palace Appears, Pagoda Opens!"
The Moon Maiden muttered softly. Her voice was very clear because it was infused with a powerful energy.
Then, she pointed to the sky with both hands, and a stream of True Yuan pierced through the clouds and shot into the mysterious palace.
At that moment, a voice came from the palace —
"Allow!"
At the same time, the moonlight that enveloped the Moonlight Pagoda gradually changed. A doorway appeared, and the metal door on the pagoda slowly opened.
Everyone was paying attention to the Moonlight Pagoda.
However, Ling Xiao's eyes were fixed on the sky.
Perhaps only he could see that there were faint figures flashing in the palace, but because it was too far away and there were layers of energy barriers, he couldn't see clearly.
However, he was sure of one thing. These people were extremely powerful. Perhaps they could kill the Moon Maiden with a sneeze.
Not to mention the higher-ups of the Yuehua School and the disciples who were still ignorant of the world's secrets.
"The Moonlight Pagoda has opened!"
The disciples' exclamations forcefully pulled Ling Xiao back from his thoughts.
He vaguely felt that this world might be more complicated than he imagined.
Become stronger!
I must continue to become stronger!
Then, he would explore the mysteries of the world!
What's going on with that palace? What's going on with those people? I have to figure it all out!
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists and tried his best to calm himself down before looking at the opened door of the Moonlight Pagoda.
He couldn't see anything inside, only a glaring light. He guessed that he would only be able to see things clearly after entering.
At this moment, the Grand Sect Master, Elder Jin, Heavenly Venerable Golden Light, Heavenly Venerable Heavenly Eye, Heavenly Venerable Wu Gou, Wanghan Tianzun, and many other high-ranking members of the Yuehua School were watching this ceremony from a distance.
It seemed like it was just a matter of the disciples' encounters, but in fact, it was a secret battle between the higher-ups.
Whoever's disciple could obtain a great opportunity would be able to obtain a higher status in Yuehua School!
Standing in front of the Moonlight Pagoda, Ling Xiao could feel a powerful force attracting him, urging him to quickly enter.
Behind the blinding light was a world where opportunities and dangers coexisted.
He didn't care about the battle between the higher-ups. He even felt that it was ridiculous and ignorant.
A group of ants fighting endlessly for power and profit, but they were unwilling to look up and see how wonderful the outside world was.
Before entering the Moonlight Pagoda, Chang Yueying had something to say to everyone.
At this moment...
Bai Feifei and Shen Tianlin, who were in the crowd, couldn't hold back their strong expectations. They turned around and glanced at Ling Xiao, who was standing behind them.
Bai Feifei's eyes were filled with resentment and anger.
Shen Tianlin, on the other hand, was disdainful and impatient. It was as if he was eager to show off to his master and gain merit.
Tantai Lingzi, on the other hand, was looking at Ling Xiao with a smile.
Ling Xiao couldn't guess what this woman was thinking for the time being.
Because he didn't know why she was targeting him, he didn't have the time to investigate.
In any case, he just had to be careful.
The three of them knew very well that after entering the Moonlight Pagoda, even the Moon Maiden couldn't control them. Although they wouldn't really die after dying in the Moonlight Pagoda, there were many ways to kill people.
However, there were many ways to kill a person. As long as he could bind Ling Xiao's soul before he was teleported out, that would be enough.
Not to mention, the three of them had special secret scrolls in their hands that could ignore the Moonlight Pagoda's rules.
Although the three of them had different thoughts, the idea of "Ling Xiao must die" was absolutely unified.
"Alright, I've finished speaking. Now, enter the Moonlight Pagoda according to the order!"
At this moment, Chang Yueying stood to the side and said.
Everyone nodded. Then, according to the order, they walked toward the unknown white light one by one and entered the Moonlight Pagoda.
The Moon Advent Pagoda Ascension Ceremony had officially begun!
Ling Xiao stepped into the Moonlight Pagoda. In that instant, from the blinding white light into the darkness, almost everyone's eyes showed different degrees of discomfort.
But Ling Xiao didn't.
After he entered the Moonlight Pagoda, he closed his eyes and released the "True Yuan Ball" to sense everything around him. This was even more sensitive than his eyes.
Feeling that it was about time, he slowly opened his eyes.
What entered his eyes wasn't the ground of an ordinary pagoda. The place where they were standing was actually a steel cable bridge.
He didn't know how long the bridge was, but he couldn't see the end of it.
The bridge was only about two meters wide. There were no wooden planks, only some steel cables connecting it.
Under the steel cable bridge, there was a surging river, and the waves were turbulent.
The moment he opened his eyes, Ling Xiao heard a few cries of agony.
"Fifty disciples participating in the pagoda ascension ceremony. Five have been eliminated. Forty-five remain!"
This was a very cold mechanical voice. It felt like the voice of a mechanical puppet.
"What? They were eliminated just like that? "
The disciples who were left behind were also shocked.
They hadn't done anything yet, but five people had already been eliminated. The Moon Advent Pagoda Ascension Ceremony was indeed very difficult.
"This is the first stage, and also the simplest stage. After passing through the steel cable bridge, the things you encounter may be more difficult than the last. Moreover, everyone's encounter will have different changes."
The cold mechanical voice continued to sound.
"The Moonlight Pagoda will record your performance. The longer you stay inside, the higher your results will be. Of course, the opportunities you encounter, the performance when you encounter danger, and so on are also one of the criteria. However, I must emphasize again. Survive. This is the core mission! Survive, and you will obtain more! "
When this cold mechanical voice sounded, no one moved.
Because everyone wanted to listen carefully to the rules.
