At this time, the new disciples heard Zhao Shi say that the entrance trial of this dilapidated Gufeng, which no one was willing to come to, was actually to climb a demon spirit.
The anger in their hearts instantly reached its peak.
Immediately, several young devil cultivators sneered as if they were ready to leave at any time.
"What a boring Gufeng! Normally, even if we were invited, we wouldn't be willing to come to such a dilapidated and desolate Gufeng! "
"That's right, the reason why we came to Gufeng today is to give you some face so that your Duxu Peak won't be completely ignored. I didn't expect such a dilapidated Gufeng to have so many rules. I think it's better not to enter this Gufeng!"
"That's right, your Dark Devil Sect isn't the only sect in the world that recruits disciples. You've already completely lost your inheritance, yet you still dare to set up so many bullshit rules. I think you'll hold on to these rules until you completely decline!"
"The Duxu Peak doesn't know what's good for you, it's no wonder that you've declined to such a state."
…
Boom!
Just as the several demonic youths were looking at the ancient tree and Zhao Shi with a look of disgust, a muffled sound suddenly exploded in everyone's ears. It was as if a thunderbolt from the ninth heaven had descended to the mortal world.
Being blasted by this loud sound, the young cultivators who had just spoken sarcastically suddenly trembled and their complexions instantly became much paler.
In the next moment, under the gazes of the thirty Demonic Dao cultivators, a blood-red halo suddenly blossomed from the ink-black ancient tree.
An unimaginably strong bloody aura emanated from the blood-colored halo. Being hit by this murderous aura, the bodies of the demonic youths who had spoken rudely trembled. With a puff, they spat out mouthfuls of blood and staggered back a dozen steps.
"Humph, the Duxu Peak's ten thousand years of foundation, how can it be slandered by you bunch of ignorant brats? If you don't want to, then hurry up and scram!! "
Zhao Shi coldly snorted and his usually straightforward face carried a rare trace of anger.
As for those people, they seemed to have sensed that the black demonic tree was truly angry. Thus, they did not dare to say anything more. One by one, they got up and ran.
The blood-red sunset shrouded the western sky. For some reason, the sun should have set a long time ago.
However, that strange blood-red setting sun was still hanging in the sky, radiating a blood-red light across the land.
Within this blood-colored halo, a strange feeling suddenly emerged in everyone's heart.
It was as if the ancient black tree had grown bigger …
Everyone looked at the ancient tree that had already grown to a height of over one hundred and fifty feet. Simultaneously, a chill emerged from the depths of their hearts.
This ancient tree … was so powerful and strange!!
"Uh … cough cough …"
Seeing that everyone seemed to be shocked by the ancient tree's performance, Zhao Shi glanced around, as if he had long been accustomed to everyone's shocked gazes.
Lightly coughing twice, Zhao Shi pulled everyone's consciousness back to reality. He nodded slightly, "Alright, you can begin to participate in this peak's entrance trial … Who wants to go first?"
The air was deathly silent. Facing a demonic soul that had lived for who knows how long, at this moment, no one dared to act blindly without thinking.
It was clear that this ancient tree in front of them was definitely not a good person. It could be seen from the blood-red mist that was full of endless killing intent that it had just emitted.
If they wanted to climb this demonic soul, they would have to be prepared to be swallowed at any time.
After another fifteen minutes or so, seeing that no one dared to attempt to climb the ancient tree, the corners of Chu Chen's mouth twitched slightly. His clear and indifferent voice suddenly resounded through the void.
"I want to join the Duxu Peak myself. Since no one is willing to participate in the trial first, then I'll give it a try."
Uh …
Almost at the same time, everyone's eyes converged on Chu Chen. They saw the grey-clothed youth stagger towards the ancient tree.
Beside him, Feng Qiang's eyes lit up. He gave Chu Chen a thumbs up, "Hahaha … Boss is still the most handsome. I'm afraid that only Boss here dares to challenge this demonic tree!!"
Chu Chen's pace had always been very gentle. He didn't walk very fast. It was obvious that when he took a step, the distance between each step was uneven. It seemed that he was limping a little.
"This … This guy is actually a cripple?"
A sharp-eyed disciple saw Chu Chen's seemingly stiff legs and suddenly cried out in alarm, "Are you kidding me? He dares to climb the Demonic Soul Ancient Tree even though his legs are crippled?"
"I think it's not very convenient for him to walk. Every step seems to be very strenuous. Can he climb a tree like this?"
"I'm afraid this kid is courting death! This Demonic Soul Ancient Tree is not comparable to other things. From the blood-colored baleful aura it emits, it can be seen that this is a demonic tree. I'm afraid it will devour the flesh and soul of cultivators! "
"While climbing this demonic tree, one must always be prepared to escape the moment the demonic tree erupts. This kid's legs are crippled. If he really encounters the demonic tree and it goes berserk, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape!"
"How can he be so reckless! I've seen this kind of Demonic Soul Ancient Tree in another demonic land. This kind of ancient tree is violent and bloodthirsty by nature. It's easy to provoke it and it will go crazy. Once you make a mistake while climbing it, you will directly fall into its digestive roots and become its fertilizer! "
…
Just as many disciples were discussing spiritedly, Chu Chen's chest moved slightly. A hamster's head with red hair stretched out.
The little hamster yawned and helplessly shrugged its shoulders.
"I recognize this tree. I didn't expect it to still be on this Duxu Peak after so many years. In fact, strictly speaking, this demonic tree was originally used to test the Duxu Peak's Peak Lords … You must know that in ancient times, this Duxu Peak was the head of the seventy-two Gufeng and was the absolute main peak of the Dark Devil Sect. The Peak Lord of this peak was usually the next Sect Lord of the Dark Devil Sect. "
"According to the rules of the Duxu Peak, only cultivators who climbed to the top of this demonic tree were qualified to inherit this Duxu Peak and become the Peak Lord. Other ordinary disciples had to climb at least three hundred feet to become an official disciple of the Duxu Peak. "
Chu Chen didn't expect this old tree to be so legendary.
"However, with the passage of time, the Duxu Peak underwent great changes and the rules naturally changed a lot. Now, disciples only need to use their hands to touch this ancient tree and climb a few steps to pass. Even so, this is a very difficult task and not many people can complete it. "
