What appeared in front of Yan Li was a beehive-like building. Rather than calling it a building, it would be better to call it a strange illusory projection. Rather than calling it a strange illusory projection, it would be better to call it the entrance to a secret garden.
This was something completely beyond Yan Li's knowledge.
Lianhai Qingshan brought all the students to a spring at the back of the mountain.
They were surrounded by a lush forest, and the chirping of birds and chirping of insects could be heard.
The clear spring reflected human faces, and it was very clear.
"Jump." Without any explanation, Lianhai Qingshan said and jumped down. Li Lingxiu followed closely behind.
Yan Li's face turned green in an instant, then from green to purple, a shade darker than a pig's liver. Then, it returned to normal, because Lianhai Zhangjin said something.
"This is not water." Although Lianhai Zhangjin did not know about Yan Li's fear of water, she knew that he could not swim, so she reminded him.
But just like a person who was afraid of heights standing on a transparent piece of glass on a cliff, he would still be so afraid that he could not walk. Yan Li stared at the seemingly fake spring, not daring to take a step forward.
The sound of splashing could be heard. The spring was so clear that one could see the bottom. Everyone who jumped in, after a splash, disappeared, as if they had entered another space and time.
But even so, Yan Li could not overcome the fear in his heart.
"Brother Yan?" Seeing that everyone had jumped enough, Lianhai Zhangjin frowned and said, "This water is fake. Qingshan mentioned to me before that this is the Jixia Learning Palace built by the combined efforts of three Heavenly Master Craftsmen and dozens of craftsmen. Rather than saying that the learning palace itself is a learning palace, it would be better to say that this is the source of the learning palace. There is another world inside. Jump with me, it will be fine."
With that said, he jumped down. "You're even afraid of water, and you still dare to call yourself the man who defeated me!" Huang Shaoyu walked over and laughed coldly.
"Shut up." Yan Li glared at him fiercely.
"Hmph!" Huang Shaoyu became arrogant after his success. He proudly stood by the side of the spring and said, "When I was ten years old, I could swim from the upper section of the Qu River to the middle section. If you're a man, then jump down with me. Let's have a real duel of life and death!" After he said that, he laughed heartily and jumped down.
"Plop —"
The water splashed and splashed onto Yan Li's face. He raised his hand and touched it. It was wet and cold. He couldn't help but curse, "Is this f * cking fake?"
"Life and death are up to fate, riches and honor are up to the heavens!" He took a deep breath and leaped.
Even in the most desperate situation, he would not say such negative words. It could be seen that water was scarier than nightmares and desperate situations.
What is more terrible than nightmares and hopeless situations?
It was the Abyss.
At this time of year, the spring could be considered very cool.
However, as soon as Yan Li touched the water, he felt cold all over and all kinds of discomfort came one after another. It was as if a person with claustrophobia was locked in a room. Countless terrifying images wantonly spread out in his mind, and the tide-like feeling of suffocation could completely drive a person into the abyss.
Falling, falling, falling, falling continuously.
Suddenly, he landed on the ground, and the feeling of suffocation magically disappeared.
Yan Li opened his eyes abruptly and saw a cluster of red corals reflected in his eyes.
"This is?" He looked around and couldn't help but be shocked. This was actually an underwater world.
He took a deep breath and found that he wasn't suffocating. It was exactly the same feeling as when Tang Sanghua fell into the Spirit River. There was real water around him, but he couldn't touch it.
As the last person to come down, he should have naturally attracted attention and ridicule. However, he found that no one paid attention to him because they were all attracted by a building.
That building was not far in front of him. It was a complete spherical shape, and there were strange beams of light shooting out from under it, dispersing into lines. This building was constructed by interweaving lines.
It was like a mountain that had been chiseled out with thousands of caves. Those caves looked densely packed, exactly like a circular beehive.
"Everyone." Lianhai Qingshan stood in front of the spherical shape. "I believe that most of you have heard of Jixia Academy and know what's behind me. However, since there are still a few who don't know, I'll give you a simple introduction."
"It's called the Secluded Garden." His face was filled with a kind of sacred light. "It's a supernatural illusion completely realized by talismans. The earliest design concept came from our Lianhai Mountain Villa."
The greatest use of the Secluded Garden was to absorb the consciousness of cultivators and enter a completely illusory world. There, a duel of life and death could be carried out. Even if one was turned into ashes inside, it would not have any effect on the real world.
The Secluded Garden was such a simple name, but it carried the blood and sweat of countless generations. Its greatest significance actually did not lie in its use itself, but in the progress of the world. When it appeared, many people must have felt the arrival of a new era.
Yan Li had coincidentally arrived at such a "new era".
When Lianhai Qingshan gave a simple introduction to the "Secluded Garden", he once again felt the importance of talismans from the bottom of his heart.
For cultivators, it practically had endless benefits.
Then a question was born: why would such a miraculous cultivation system be buried in the dust of history?
For the first time, Yan Li was curious about the origin of talismans.
Lianhai Qingshan said with a smile, "Everyone, please choose an entrance. You will enter a completely unfamiliar world. After entering, you will receive mission instructions. The order of the mission will be determined by how long it takes you to complete the instructions. This is a very obvious way of competing. If you waste your time on fighting, I'm afraid that the good ranking that you have in mind will fall into the hands of others. Remember, sincere cooperation, unity, and mutual assistance is the main purpose of this trial. "
"Begin." He waved his hand.
All the students immediately rushed in. The first to enter would give them a small advantage. There was no doubt about this. After someone entered, each cave would automatically close. It was obvious that each cave would only allow one person to pass through.
Lianhai Changjin also wanted to rush in, but was suddenly pulled back by someone. "Don't be in a hurry."
Hearing Yan Li's words by his ear, his mind moved and he transmitted, "What do you know?"
"Look at them," Yan Li said.
Lianhai Changjin carefully looked and suddenly found that there were at least fifty people who were indifferent. These people all had faint, cold smiles on their faces.
Yan Li slightly narrowed his eyes and said, "Look at these caves. They all have different shapes. Why is there such a difference?"
Lianhai Changjin thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Could it be that they represent instructions?"
"We'll know if we keep observing," Yan Li said.
"What are you waiting for?" At this moment, an irritating voice sounded by his ear.
Yan Li didn't need to look to know that it was Huang Shaoyu. He couldn't be bothered to answer.
Huang Shaoyu suddenly gave a strange smile, "Have you heard of a legend?"
Lianhai Changjin couldn't help but ask, "What legend?"
