Once a cultivator advanced to the Spirit Water Realm, their fleshy body would obtain the tempering of spiritual energy and would be impervious to cold and heat. Even in a world of ice and snow, they would not feel too cold. Hence, when many people heard the reception elder's words, they all had relaxed faces, thinking that this trial would be passed very easily.
However, they had overlooked a fact. In this trial, they had to select 100 super powerhouses out of the 50,000 people who could persevere until the end!
To be able to eliminate several tens of thousands of Tenth Level Spirit Water Realm experts... just how horrifying was it?
It was simply unimaginable! Many alchemists who thought of this immediately felt chills all over their bodies and shuddered for no reason.
After the reception elder repeatedly confirmed that all the trial disciples understood the rules of the competition, he did not say any nonsense.
With a wave of his hand, light flickered. A blazing white light spewed out from the Mountain and River State Painting, instantly enveloping the 50 thousand disciples in the plaza. After the light gradually dissipated, all the disciples had already entered the Mountain and River State Painting!
When the Mountain and River State Painting's teleportation white light gradually dissipated, a dusky brand new world appeared in front of everyone. This was an extremely desolate place. Looking over, there was not a trace of greenery to be seen at all.
There was not a single plant, flower, or tree. What was there were only endless clusters of odd-looking rocks of various colors and postures. They stood bare on the ground like ferocious beasts of the ancient era, prostrating on the ground and glaring at everyone.
The entire world was dusky. There was no sun, stars, or moon in the sky. The firmament was a stretch of gray. Not knowing where the light came from, it shone on the ground, revealing a trace of dilapidated and decadent smell. Making people's hearts sink when they saw it. Only to feel that their chests were heavy like something was pressing down on them.
This scene made everyone feel a slight chill in their hearts.
"Alright, this is the Secret Medicine Realm."
Just as everyone was sizing up the world contained within this ancient secret treasure in astonishment, an ear-piercing cry descended from the sky.
Everyone raised their heads to look and saw an enormous snow crane flying over. On the snow crane's back, the reception elder had a solemn expression.
"Are the rules clear? I'll say it one last time. Each of you has a jade talisman in your hands, and each of you has an hour to prepare. After an hour, a super blizzard will descend upon the Secret Medicine Realm, the likes of which have never been seen before and will never be seen again! If you feel that you can't hold on any longer, just crush the jade talisman, and you'll be transported outside naturally, safe and sound. As long as the person who persevered until the end, he or she would become a disciple of the Medicine Palace! "
"Also, let me kindly remind you!"
A mysterious smile suddenly appeared on the picky face of the guide elder. He waved his hand and pointed behind everyone. Everyone turned around and saw that not too far away, there were three thousand feet tall mountains standing between the Heaven and Earth. They were extremely eye-catching.
"Do you see that? Those three mountains are the only source of life in the Secret Medicine Realm. At the top of each mountain is a Spiritual Eye formed by a Spiritual Vein of Heaven and Earth. Within the Spirit Spring, neither cold nor heat could invade. However, each Spirit Spring can only be used by one person, so it's the best place to escape from the blizzard! "
"Other than those three mountains, there are two other small mountains that are also excellent places to hide, but you'll have to find them yourselves. Other than these five mountains, there are also many caves of various sizes in the entire Secret Medicine Realm that you can hide in. There are countless of them, so you'll have to find them yourselves. In short, when the snowstorm comes, you must find a suitable place to hide. Only then can you survive for a longer period of time, understand? "
The reception elder looked at everyone. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he frowned slightly. "Also, I'll say it again. Fighting is not allowed in the Secret Medicine Realm. You can fight with each other, but you must know when to stop! If anyone dares to kill, you'll be disqualified from the competition without further ado. Do you understand? "
"Understood, Elder!!"
Orderly shouts resounded through the sky. The reception elder nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand fiercely. He did not say any more nonsense. "Then … the trial officially begins! Little friends, let me see how long you can persevere! " Then, he patted the snow crane beneath him. Accompanied by a long cry, the reception elder's figure soared into the sky.
The entire Secret Medicine Realm fell silent for a moment. To be honest, when they had just arrived at such a strange place, everyone was at a loss. It was as if they did not know what to do next. However, as time passed, some people began to react and rushed towards the three small mountains behind the crowd!
The guide elder's words were clear and concise. Those three small mountains were the best places to hide from the blizzard. Although they still didn't know how strong that snowstorm was, it wasn't a bad thing to occupy a good location!
Once the first person made a move, there would be a second and a third. Soon, more and more people realized the hidden meaning in the reception elder's words. Hence, in just half a quarter of an hour, most of them had reacted and began to rush towards the three small mountains like a tide!
There was no doubt that once one occupied one of the three small mountains, it was equivalent to obtaining a guarantee to become a disciple of the Medicine Palace!
What kind of situation was it when tens of thousands of people rushed towards one direction at the same time? Those who had never seen it before would never be able to imagine the shock.
Looking down from the sky, one could see a boundless sea of people. It was like a wildly surging black tide that was rapidly spreading forward.
Before the crowd had even reached the small mountains, the crowd was already filled with violent roars, sounds of fighting, roars, curses, and cheers. As the saying went, there were too many monks and too little gruel. There were only three small mountains and there were indeed tens of thousands of people fighting over those three mountains. This drastic contrast caused everyone's eyes to turn red. Almost everyone rushed forward with all their might, afraid that someone else would beat them to it. If that happened, it would be too late for regrets.
Where there were arguments, there would be battles. Hence, more and more people began to fight for various reasons. Streaks of spiritual energy of various colors could be seen galloping through the void, blooming into brilliant rays of light in the dusky world. It was incomparably dazzling!
