Chapter 1324

Stepping out of the corridor, they arrived at another hall.

This hall was much grander than the previous two halls.

The previous two halls gave off an eerie feeling, making people want to leave as soon as possible.

The one in front of them finally looked like a normal hall. It was magnificent.

Most importantly, Gu Ding and the others finally saw other people.

Many of the powerhouses who had been with Testo and the others had gathered in this hall, sitting cross-legged.

When they saw Gu Ding and the others coming, many of them looked relieved. A few of them even stood up and came up to greet them.

"Did you see anyone on the way here …" A few of them asked anxiously.

These people were asking about their relatives and friends. They had been separated while they were trying to break through.

Gu Ding frowned slightly when he saw the projections they gave him. They had seen these people on the way here. They had been sucked dry by the giant mosquitoes and died.

Although Gu Ding could not bear to see them die, he still answered them one by one.

The few of them returned to the crowd with a lonely look on their faces and did not say a word.

"Why are you all gathered here? Is there anything special about this hall? Where are Testo and Luna? "Gu Ding asked one of them.

The man gave a detailed explanation one by one.

After listening to the explanation, Gu Ding and the others realized that this hall was the only safe hall.

The fortuitous encounter of this level was also in this hall.

The ancient painting hanging on the wall of the hall was a trial ground.

The more trials one passed in the ancient painting, the more amazing the rewards they would receive.

When a certain number of trials had been passed, those who passed would be transported to the next floor of the Hidden Dragon Temple.

Testo and Luna were not here because they had passed enough trials to enter the next floor.

As for those who weren't in this hall, they had probably already perished. The remaining twenty or so people in this hall were the last survivors.

After receiving this information, Qian Duoduo and the others sat down cross-legged. They wanted to adjust themselves to their best condition before entering the ancient painting to challenge the trials.

Gu Ding walked up to the ancient painting. He did not step into it immediately. Instead, he observed the ancient painting.

In the painting, an elegant man stood on the top of a mountain, looking at the sky.

A great sun hung high in the sky, illuminating the common people.

At the top of the mountain, under the light, the man's shadow seemed to be faintly fluctuating.

Gu Ding thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. He rubbed his eyes, but the scene remained still and the shadow did not show any abnormalities.

Gu Ding looked at it for a long time but could not figure out much.

He shook his head and cleared his mind of distracting thoughts. Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to adjust his condition.

Not long after, Qian Duoduo whispered to his subordinates. The strong men nodded, then walked in front of the ancient painting and reached out to touch it.

A moment later, the six of them disappeared from where they stood.

Gu Ding did not even feel any spatial fluctuations.

This ancient painting could only allow nine people to enter at a time. After each person entered, they would enter an independent world that belonged to them, and they wouldn't be able to see the other examinees.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, the six of them were sent out one after another, all of them heavily injured.

One of them, whose injuries were slightly lighter, transmitted his voice to Qian Duoduo about his encounter in the ancient painting.

After listening to Qian Duoduo, Qian Duoduo was not stingy and shared the information with Gu Ding and the others.

After listening to Qian Duoduo's description, Gu Ding roughly understood the content of the ancient painting assessment, which gave him more confidence.

"You guys or me first?" Gu Ding asked.

"We'll go first. You, Biggie, Elizabeth, and Hark stay behind," Lilliath said as she led Phaser and the others toward the ancient painting.

A moment later, the nine of them disappeared into the ancient painting.

About half an hour later, Faust and Dockett were sent out one after another. After another ten minutes or so, Lilliath and the others were sent out one by one.

In the end, Elsa was the only one who was not sent out.

"That last stage was too much!" Lilliath's face was full of displeasure. She looked extremely disheveled, and her clothes looked like that of a beggar's.

"It was too difficult!" Phaser also gave a one-word evaluation.

"Unfortunately, we lost in the last move …" Becka was also a little depressed.

"What happened to you guys?" Gu Ding could not help but ask because they must have gone further than Qian Duoduo's men.

Lilliath and the others told him what happened to them in the last stage. After listening, even Gu Ding frowned slightly. "Testo, Luna, Argus, and the others all passed the test? Elsa also passed?! "

"I've seen Argus and Jaggers' strength. It's very likely that they had a breakthrough in their cultivation at the last minute for them to be able to pass," Neptune said with certainty. "As for Elsa, there's an old monster hiding in her body, so it's not surprising that she passed."

After listening to the information given by everyone, Gu Ding nodded and shared the information with Qian Duoduo. Then, he waved at Biggie and the others. "It's our turn!"

"I'll go in with you." Qian Duoduo hesitated for a moment before making the decision.

Gu Ding nodded at him, then led the group of people to the ancient painting and pressed his hand on it.

The next moment, Gu Ding came to his senses and found himself in a small town at the foot of a mountain.

The town was peaceful and tranquil.

"This is …"

After observing the town for a while, he looked up at the mountain not far away and was stunned.

This mountain was the tallest mountain in the ancient painting. The elegant man in the ancient painting was standing at the top of this mountain and looking at the sky.

"Participants, welcome to the world of Spirit Mountain!"

"Trial Ultimate Goal: Climb to the top of Spirit Mountain."

"Trial Content: Defeat all obstacles along the way and climb Spirit Mountain."

"Trial Final Reward: Open the Immortal Door and enter the land of Immortal Path heritage."

"Trial Normal Reward: Rewards are calculated according to the level of defeating the obstacles. Rewards are optional."

"Trial Taboo: You are not allowed to use any props other than weapons and armor, including all types of medicine and pills. You are not allowed to use Dragon Seal during the trial. "

…

A slightly aged voice was constantly reading out the rules and prohibitions of the examination.

Gu Ding waited for the sound to die down before he walked toward the mountain.

He had only taken a few steps when he was stopped by a burly man. The burly man's coat was half-open, revealing his round belly. He stuck out his belly and carried a heavy ax on his shoulder.

"Kid, I opened this mountain, and I also opened this tree … No, I plucked it! Bah, wrong again! " The burly man looked slightly embarrassed. "That … If you want to pass, you'll have to pay for the toll!"

"Fat uncle, where's the tree you plucked?" Gu Ding asked.

Apart from the small house, there was only flat ground. There were a few weeds on the side of the road, but there were no trees at all.

"This …" The burly man looked around, and the expression on his face became more and more embarrassed.
