No one had expected this.
Behind the towering ice wall, there was actually an ancient training ground.
Furthermore, the trial ground was still in good condition. After a large number of cultivators barged in, the energy pagoda in the trial ground was finally activated, starting a trial that transcended time!
"Shut up!"
At that moment.
With a raise of his hand, Chen Xiao slapped Senior Brother Xu to the ground, rendering him powerless to resist.
"Puff... you..."
Senior Brother Xu spat out a mouthful of blood.
A terrifying force struck him, shaking his internal organs. Senior Brother Xu's body instantly curled up like a prawn!
Grandmaster Gu Li's expression changed drastically. His eyes flickered with flames of anger. He immediately gathered his Dharmic powers and charged forward, "Kid, how dare you! How dare you attack my disciple in front of me... "
The scene.
Gu Huaiyu groaned in his heart.
Be it Chen Xiao and the others or Grandmaster Gu Li...
The two sides were like dry wood and a raging fire. A conflict would break out the moment they met, resulting in an intense explosion!
"Grandmaster Gu, let's talk this out, please don't..."
Kaboom!
Before he could finish his sentence, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky.
The speed of the thunderbolt was extremely fast, as though it was piercing through the void. It was like a heavenly sword punishing lightning, slashing down from above, causing Gu Li's body to tremble uncontrollably. His transcendence energy was scattered and his entire body was charred black, as though he was being roasted on the spot!
"Puff... what is this?!"
Gu Li spat out a mouthful of blood.
While he was still in midair, this mouthful of blood was completely evaporated by the lightning!
"Master!"
"Grandmaster Gu!"
Beside Gu Li.
The disciples and followers let out cries of astonishment, as they could not believe their eyes.
Their Master, their Master, the famous Array Refinement Grandmaster Gu Li …
He was struck by a bolt of lightning in front of everyone. His eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were emitting electric snakes!
"Once the trial begins, no one is allowed to use Dharmic powers outside the ice palace."
The mechanical voice of the energy obelisk rang out at the critical moment, as emotionless as ever.
"No one is allowed to use Dharmic powers outside the ice palace?"
Gu Li panted heavily, his face was extremely ugly.
Originally, when his disciple was beaten up, he attacked out of anger, intending to teach Chen Xiao a lesson.
Who knew …
Before he could even touch Chen Xiao's skin, he was blasted into charcoal by the lightning laws of the trial ground!
If it weren't for the fact that Gu Li was an Array Refining Grandmaster with an astonishing amount of wealth and many secret treasures on him, this lightning strike alone would have been enough to knock him to the ground!
"This … This isn't fair!"
At their feet.
Senior Brother Xu struggled to get up and shouted, "He was the one who attacked first. Why did he only punish my master?!"
Rumble —
As soon as he finished speaking.
Another bolt of lightning fell from the void.
"Ah …"
Even though this bolt of lightning was clearly much weaker than the previous one ….
However, its power was still astonishing, causing Senior Apprentice Brother Xu to scream miserably. In the blink of an eye, he was no longer breathing!
"Disciple … cough, cough!!"
Gu Li let out a cry of alarm. Without thinking too much, he immediately took out pills and fed them to Xu Ziming. After a moment of confusion, Xu Ziming's life was finally saved.
The expressions of the group of people were all extremely unsightly.
Even though many people's eyes were filled with hatred and resentment, no one dared to speak this time.
"Questioning the rules of the trial is a small punishment."
The energy pagoda's voice was heard slowly, "This kid didn't use any Dharmic powers."
After that.
There was no more sound.
Only the crowd was left looking at one another.
At this moment, it seemed that from the beginning to the end, Chen Xiao had only used …
Pure physical strength!
"Could it be … that he's a Body Cultivator?"
Many people present, including Gu Huaiyu, had similar thoughts.
Body Cultivators did have Dharmic powers.
However, to be able to have such combat power without using Dharmic powers, they could not think of a second possibility apart from being a Body Cultivator!
Just as the air was silent.
Suddenly, cries of pain could be heard from the ice palaces.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me … "
"I don't want to participate in the trial anymore! Let me out! I want to leave this godforsaken place! "
A few battered figures charged out from the ice palaces. Their bodies reeked of blood, and there were residual energy ripples. They ran into the distance without looking back.
However, not long after …
Even more miserable cries could be heard from the direction they came from.
"Where's the exit? Where's the exit?! "
"Why did the tunnel we came from disappear!!"
"I don't believe it … I don't believe it …"
Boom boom boom boom boom —
All of a sudden.
Hysterical screams mixed with the explosions of Divine Abilities rang out one after another.
Following that, countless lightning snakes appeared in the void!
"Warning, do not use Dharmic powers outside the ice palaces."
"Warning, do not use Dharmic powers outside the ice palaces."
"Warning, do not use Dharmic powers outside the ice palaces."
"Warning …"
The energy pagoda's voice was as cold as ice.
Every time a bolt of lightning landed, a mechanical sound would be heard, sending chills down everyone's spine.
In the blink of an eye, several heavily injured martial artists lost their lives under the lightning!
"This …"
Everyone looked at the scene before them.
Whether it was Gu Huaiyu's group, Grandmaster Guli's group, or the other martial artists, they all sucked in a breath of cold air.
A chill that they had never felt before rose from the depths of their hearts.
Fear!
That was the spread of horror and fear!
"Didn't … didn't they say … this was just a trial?"
"Then what's going on with these people …"
"The exit, the tunnel we came from disappeared?"
Some martial artists cried out in fear, their souls leaving their bodies on the spot.
Everyone could see that …
Even though the power of the lightning was shocking, many of the martial artists were already heavily injured when they charged out of the ice palaces!
The lightning that followed was just adding insult to injury.
This time, the energy pagoda did not reply.
Just as everyone felt their hair stand on end, they slowly came to their senses —
"There's no such thing as a leisurely place to spread your wealth."
"Trial, trial …"
"If you don't experience iron and blood, how can you call it a trial?"
Although the ancient training ground in front of him contained a shocking opportunity, it was still a huge treasure.
But what corresponded to this fortuitous encounter was a shocking death rate!
"It's easy to die in this trial!"
Countless people were shocked.
The craziness and fervor from before seemed to have been poured down by a bucket of cold water in an instant, drenching his heart on the spot!
No matter how shocking the opportunities were, one had to be alive to take them.
"The trial is filled with danger, but staying in the outside world makes it impossible to leave. It seems like …"
Gu Huaiyu's eyes were deep as he murmured softly.
Only then did he turn his gaze to Chen Xiao at the side. "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Xiao has any opinions?"
