The old man beside Zhang Tianheng was a Vice Hall Master of the Trial Hall. At the same time, he was an extremely powerful inner sect Elder. His strength was second only to the 19 core Elders, including the Hidden Fog Sect's Second Elder.
He was also one of the inner sect Elders with the highest hopes of becoming a core Elder.
"Hall Master, rest assured. Everything is going smoothly."
The old man smiled.
"Did anyone have an outstanding performance?"
Zhang Tianheng asked again, "Is there a chance of a core disciple being born?"
Facing Zhang Tianheng's second question, the old man bitterly smiled. "Hall Master, it isn't that easy to become a core disciple … their performance so far has been average. It's basically impossible for anyone to smoothly pass the assessment.
"I think that Duan Lingtian has a higher chance of becoming a core disciple than them."
The old man couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hall Master, how is it on your side? How is Duan Lingtian doing? "
"He hasn't made a move yet."
Zhang Tianheng shook his head. "That boy from my family is currently encouraging the other inner sect disciples to help Duan Lingtian open the way for him to pass the core disciple assessment … I really don't know what he's thinking."
As Zhang Tianheng spoke, he helplessly shook his head.
The old man bitterly smiled. "Young Hall Master probably doesn't know. Even with him and the other inner sect disciples helping at the beginning, the core disciple assessment Duan Lingtian will have to go through at the end won't be any easier … after all, the assessment can change at any time."
"That's why I think that boy from my family is a fool and wasting my efforts."
Zhang Tianheng said.
The old man shook his head. "Hall Master, you can't say that … maybe the Young Hall Master intends to befriend Duan Lingtian? That Duan Lingtian, even if he can't become a core disciple this time, as long as he can grow, he will surely become a powerhouse that can support our Hidden Fog Sect. "
"If that boy had such thoughts, I wouldn't need to spend so much effort on him."
Zhang Tianheng clearly didn't think that his son would have such thoughts. "In my opinion, he just hopes that after Duan Lingtian becomes a core disciple, he can brag to others that he witnessed the birth of a Divine Spirit Realm core disciple."
…
Zhang Yaoji didn't know what his father thought of him.
If he knew, he would definitely think that his father knew him best.
The Ultimate Abyss in Zhang Tianheng's small world was naturally created by him.
At his level of cultivation, the small world in his body had undergone many transformations compared to the small worlds of ordinary gods. With a single thought, he could evolve the small world in his body and create any space in his small world.
As for the creatures in the small world in his body, he could arrange where they would appear with just a thought.
He had complete control over the small world in his body.
This was similar to a supreme expert controlling a Realm of Gods.
Rumor had it that a Realm of Gods was a Little World that belonged to a supreme expert.
In the Ultimate Abyss, Duan Lingtian did not make a move at the first few checkpoints.
It was only when Zhang Yaoji and the others began to feel strained and some of them were almost injured that Duan Lingtian made his move.
Whoosh!
Crash!!
…
As the spatial storm swept out, the inner sect disciples who were struggling suddenly felt the pressure on them lessen. After that, they even realized that the slaves and demon beasts that were oppressing them were all forced to retreat.
Moreover, after they retreated, they did not dare to come up again.
The slaves and demon beasts were still fine since they did not show any signs of emotion.
However, the demon beasts looked at Duan Lingtian with fear in their eyes.
The slaves and demon beasts did not have any emotions and did not know fear. Although the demon beasts did not have any intelligence, their memories were not erased so they still had animal instincts.
After a few more checkpoints, Zhang Yaoji and two other inner sect disciples were the only ones who were still able to persevere. The rest of the inner sect disciples had stopped in their tracks.
"Senior Brother Duan, we won't hold you back anymore."
One of the inner sect disciples looked at Duan Lingtian and said with a bitter smile, "If it wasn't for you, we might have been eliminated in the last two checkpoints.
This is as far as we can go. "
"Good luck to you."
The other inner sect disciples who were weaker nodded in agreement. Apart from thanking Duan Lingtian, they were also looking forward to Duan Lingtian passing the god-grade core disciple assessment.
"It's really too difficult … We're only halfway there."
One of the inner sect disciples looked at the sky and realized that the path he had taken was at most halfway to the exit of the Ultimate Abyss. In fact, it seemed like it was only a small part of the way.
"Yeah … I wonder how Senior Xue Haichuan from ten thousand years ago passed."
Another inner sect disciple nodded in agreement.
Just like that, the group that had originally ascended into the air was only left with Duan Lingtian and the other three inner sect disciples. At the same time, the group of inner sect disciples who stayed behind also realized that Duan Lingtian and the other three inner sect disciples did not go with them. Hence, their speed in breaking through the checkpoints became much faster.
The demon beasts and slave and demon beasts did not even have a chance to get close to them.
Just now, because of their presence, Duan Lingtian and the rest did not dare to make a move. They were deeply afraid that they would be implicated and accidentally hurt them.
"When can I be as strong as Senior Duan Lingtian …"
Among the group of inner sect disciples who did not continue to break through the checkpoints, a young man with a slightly childish face muttered softly.
Hearing his words, another inner sect disciple shook his head. "Not to mention Senior Duan, even if you can be as strong as Senior Zhang, it would be good enough."
"These two people's strength is not weaker than Qi Yu's."
Along the way, Duan Lingtian also realized that the inner sect disciples who continued to break through the checkpoints with him and Zhang Yaoji had also mastered the fusion of three profound meanings that they were good at. Their strength was not much different from Qi Yu and Zhang Yaoji's.
It was also because of this that they were able to persevere until now.
"Looks like they are on the same level as Zhang Yaoji and Qi Yu. They are in the top ten of the God-Grade inner sect disciples."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"It's getting harder … I'll take a break first."
Although the current Zhang Yaoji was not in a bad state, he was sweating profusely and panting heavily.
As for the other two, they were not in a bad state either.
Only Duan Lingtian looked the same as before. It did not seem like he was exhausted at all. Zhang Yaoji only took a glance at Duan Lingtian and could not help but curse him in his heart. "What a freak!"
"Duan Lingtian, you don't know these two people, right?"
Zhang Yaoji did not forget to introduce the other two people. First, he looked at the young man in the gray robe with a cold expression. "This is Guardian Yun Huai's fourth disciple, Ah Qiu."
"This is Third Elder's second disciple, Sha Yuting. They are in the top ten of the God-Grade inner sect disciples. "
Sha Yuting was a middle-aged man in a light blue robe. He had an ordinary appearance, but his temperament was extraordinary. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
"Brother Duan, I've long heard of your abilities. Now that I've met you today, you live up to your reputation."
Sha Yuting sighed emotionally.
As for Ah Qiu, although he seemed to be serious in speech and manner, he still forced a smile at Duan Lingtian. "Duan Lingtian, you're very powerful."
Duan Lingtian was just about to exchange pleasantries when he was interrupted by a beast's roar that suddenly came from above his head.
"Roar!"
Accompanied by a beast's roar, there was actually a demonic beast that was as big as a mountain. It carried more than ten slave warriors and descended from the sky, charging toward Duan Lingtian and the others.
"Isn't the old man too ruthless? He won't even give us time to rest? "
Zhang Yaoji cursed loudly when he saw this scene.
It should be known that when they had ascended from the sky earlier, they had only appeared when they reached a certain height. Now, they had clearly not reached the next level, but the demonic beast and slave warriors had appeared in advance and charged toward them.
Ah Qiu and Sha Yuting's expressions also became solemn at this moment.
The divine power on their bodies surged again, ready to be unleashed.
"All of you have a good rest … I'll go up first."
Faced with the menacing demonic beast and more than ten slave warriors, Duan Lingtian greeted Zhang Yaoji and the others before he ascended into the sky to meet them.
Then, a low-grade divine sword appeared in Duan Lingtian's hand. With a point of the sword, a spatial storm suddenly appeared and transformed into a huge sword that swept out.
Even though the demonic beast and more than ten slave warriors tried their best to resist, they were still repelled and sent flying by Duan Lingtian's sword. Blood filled the sky. The demonic beast and more than ten slave warriors were all injured by Duan Lingtian, and blood spurted wildly from their mouths.
Then, as though they had received an order, they retreated.
This scene also stunned Zhang Yaoji and the others. "This is the embryonic form of Sword Principle?"
Now, the demonic beast and more than ten slave warriors had attacked earlier, so they could vaguely see the other party's strength. Even if the three of them joined forces now, they would at most be able to repel them with great difficulty.
This was because they had consumed a lot of energy earlier.
If they were at their peak, the two of them would be able to repel them together.
However, even if they were at their peak, it would be difficult for them to repel the other party within a few moves, let alone one move … Now, Duan Lingtian had only used one move.
To be precise, it was only one move!
With one move, the gods and demons would retreat. This was nothing more than that.
"If I were to face that move … I'm afraid I would die without a doubt! Qi Yu didn't die in vain. "
Sha Yuting muttered as she stared blankly at Duan Ling Tian who continued to soar up into the air as though nothing had happened and charged towards the next trial.
"I'm afraid it won't be easy for him to pass the next stage."
Zhang Yaoji said.
However, when Duan Lingtian reached the next stage, he was stunned again.
This was because Duan Ling Tian still managed to defeat the Demon Beast and Slave Deathsworn at the checkpoint with just a swing of his sword.
Then, he continued to advance.
Another move.
Another move.
"God … How did he do it?"
Zhang Yaoji was completely stunned.
At this moment, A 'Qiu spoke with a solemn expression on her face. "He must have comprehended the fusion of two profundities from the law of space … Coupled with the embryonic form of Sword Principle, he's invincible!
His current strength is even stronger than Xue Haichuan who passed the god-grade core disciple assessment 10,000 years ago! "
