C167 Three trials

The follower returned in high spirits. He walked on the wasted path, at least he managed to preserve his life. Ying Ping was also extremely happy, and the number of people who belonged to him was the fewest.

However, the disciples of the two factions felt a chill in their hearts. After all, no one wanted to die because they were afraid that they would be chosen.

Wan Jian said to one of his junior brothers: "Junior brother Chang Ye, your ability to adapt to situations is the strongest, you can go now!"

The Changchun tree's expression remained impassive as he nodded seriously, "Don't worry, Senior, I definitely won't let you down."

Jiang Bihan also said to a disciple beside him: "We have already sent out one of our White Cloud Valley, this time we will be troubling you."

The disciple swallowed his saliva and nodded his head helplessly. He stepped onto the road that the Devil Sect disciple took just now, and the Changchun tree quickly advanced as well.

Everyone sat down on the ground once again, quietly waiting for the final result. Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the Changchun tree appeared in front of everyone very quickly.

He nodded his head and said, "I followed this road and there were no problems. Furthermore, I saw the mark left by Zeng Kun where I came back. This road should be the way to survival."

Everyone followed the path and walked on it. After walking for about an hour and a half, they saw Zeng Kun staring blankly into space, as if he was worried about something.

Everyone came closer and discovered that there were two sets of Stone Door here. Each one of the Stone Door had a line of words on them: "There is a path to heaven on the left, but there is no door to hell on the right."

Zheng Jie looked at them seriously and said: "These two Stone Door should be the first stage we face. From the mechanisms in front, our next step is to pass the three stages.

Zhao Yiming said in confusion: "I wonder how difficult these three views are, which door do you think we should open?"

Song Wufu hesitated for a moment before saying: "Logically speaking, it should be hell without doors, but I feel that this matter cannot be so simple. Could it be that he is deliberately using our mentality to walk the path of heaven?"

Jian Chenzi retorted, "What if the other party were to guess our thoughts and go the other way?!"

Zhao Feng man snorted and said, "I think my method just now was the best. We should each send a disciple and each of us should choose a door. We will know once the door is opened."

Zeng Kun carelessly said, "I've been the one to choose all this time, and this time it's me."

Zhao Yiming smiled and said, "Senior Brother Ceng, you have to give others a chance to show off. I think this time, it should be the Haotian Sect's turn."

Now, Shao Jun only had four disciples left, but he could not pretend to be a bear. He secretly clenched his teeth and said to one of the disciples beside him: "We cannot let others look down on us, you go."

That disciple had a sullen face, looked left and right, and finally decided to grit his teeth and choose the Gates of Hell. A disciple from Acacia Sect stood in front of them in heaven, and the two of them took a deep breath at the same time, forcefully pushing the Stone Door away.

After the door to the Gates of Hell was broken open, a jet of black water shot out and sprayed onto the face of the Haotian Sect disciple. He screamed miserably and fell silent.

Zhou Yuanliang waved to one of the disciples. That disciple carefully approached him and took out a dark green jade needle. He gently stirred it in the black water and then stepped back.

That disciple immediately said, "There are a total of twenty-six poisons in this water, but I don't think that's all. According to the scripture, this poison water should be composed of thirty different poisons. There are four that I haven't tested."

Zhou Yuangliang sighed and said, "It's a pity that I didn't bring any jade bottles. Otherwise, I would've definitely packed them up to study them."

Song Wufu cursed from the side: "There's actually a way out for us, the person who set up the mechanism was really crafty enough to understand people's minds clearly."

Everyone stepped into the Stone Door and walked along a stone staircase. Soon enough, they arrived at the edge of a cliff.

This time, they did not need to speak, and sent out two disciples each according to the old rules. Zhao Yiming felt that things were not that simple, and started to search again secretly.

As he expected, when these four disciples walked along the steel rope, it suddenly ignited with a green ghost flame. Soon, it covered all four of their bodies. These four people screamed as they fell down the cliff.

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. They didn't expect that these four steel cables would all be dead ends. Everyone looked at each other in dismay. There was no longer a path they could take.

Zhao Yiming hesitated for a moment, then said to Jian Chenzi: "I wonder if Second Brother would dare to follow this iron chain again." Jian Chenzi nodded.

The two of them flew up at the same time and watched the iron chain quickly move forward. The two of them quickly passed through the cliff and arrived opposite it. The two of them let out a long breath, and their clothes were completely soaked on their backs.

Some of them acted as a model, while the rest of them also rushed over. They did not expect that the remaining four would have ghost flames igniting their bodies as they charged forward, following in the footsteps of the people in front.

Zheng Tan sighed. "Such a powerful mechanism. I admire you for looking at each other from head to toe."

Everyone was shocked, but they could only muster up the courage to advance forward. They finally arrived at the final hurdle. It was a huge pond full of lotus flowers. Every lotus flower was incomparably huge, and every lotus leaf was like a dustpan.

Zheng Feiyu looked at Ying Ping and said, "Many of our disciples have died here. Shouldn't you ask your followers to lend a hand and scout out this lotus?"

At this time, Ying Ping was also too weak, he had no choice but to wave his hands, and two of his followers jumped out at the same time, one on the lotus leaf and the other amongst the lotus flower.

A pink smoke suddenly rose from the lotus, and the follower seemed to be drunk, shaking the lotus until he fell into the pond.

Two bubbles appeared on the surface of the water before disappearing without a trace. The follower standing on the lotus leaf was secretly rejoicing, when a long tongue suddenly stretched out from the water, encircling him and quickly dragging him into the pond.

Jian Chen shot toward the pond only to hear a loud cry before a tongue flew out. With a flash, the disciple behind him was pulled into the pond.

Zhao Yiming shouted loudly, "This stage doesn't hold any other thoughts, we can only try to break through. Remember, do not touch any of the lotus flowers." As he said that, he pulled Xiang Sibing up and used the Eight Steps to push the cicada to its limit as he rushed over with a streak of afterimages.

With him leading the way, everyone used all their strength to quickly rush forward. A long tongue extended from the pond and constantly, a few disciples would be dragged into the pond while screaming.
