Xu Qingmu put away his sword and looked at Li Chengru:
"I feel that my Qi Palace is larger than before, and it contains more spiritual energy..."
Li Chengru smiled strangely: "What, you are not happy with such a good thing?"
Xu Qingmu shook his head: "No, I am worried about whether the construction of the Climbing Immortal Bridge will be more difficult in the future."
The Taoist Shutong next to him looked surprised: "What is the purpose of building a bridge to ascend to immortality?"
Xu Qingmu said: "I had a fight with someone and it was interrupted."
"..."
Xu Qingmu scratched his head, slightly embarrassed. However, he had doubts in his mind. This senior Qingqiu looked so powerful. How come he couldn't even tell that the Immortal Bridge broke when he climbed it?
Li Chengru patted Qingqiu on the shoulder: "You are an old monster who has become a saint in the flesh. Naturally, you don't understand sword cultivation. By the way, how many years has it been since the last time the world airspace was opened?"
Qingqiu thought briefly: "Eight hundred and thirty years?"
"It's almost the same. I don't know how it has evolved inside. But I think it must be much better than your Qinglian dimension."
The middle-aged man curled his lips and ignored Li Chengru, but turned to look at Xu Qingmu:
"If the preparations are complete, I will start the trial. Li Chengru is right. Once you enter the trial, whether you are alive or dead, I will not engage in any favoritism, let alone rescue."
Xu Qingmu nodded. He himself did not expect the middle-aged man in front of him to save him.
Qing Qiu looked at Wang Shuai again: "How many levels of Tongtian Lu have you understood?"
Wang Shuai said respectfully: "Twenty-one floors."
There was a slight surprise in Qing Qiu's eyes: "Twenty-one? Hmm... I think so. I have the inherited memory of a thirteenth-level sword cultivator. It is not unusual to have such progress."
There are ninety-nine levels in Tongtian Lu, and there are dozens of cultivation secrets, and the puppet technique is one of them.
What's even more magical is that Tongtian Lu can only be passed down through inheritance and memory. Once written on paper, it will be automatically sealed. Unless there is a powerful person, it will be no different from broken paper.
As for the twenty-first level of Wang Shuai's cultivation, his talent is so high that only Qing Qiu knows about it.
You know, Emperor Yan was only at the ninetieth level when he was at his peak!
"There are two ways in front of you. One is to go in for the trial alone, or to assist Xu Qingmu and complete his trial together. When the task is over, you will get the same reward." The middle-aged man said.
Wang Shuai didn't even think about it: "I'm with my good brother!"
Then he asked, "Can you take my brother with you?" He pointed at Fu Xiansheng, who was doing nothing behind him. Under his white hair, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing murderous intent.
Wang Shuai is not afraid of boiling water: "Look at how tall he is, who can he beat? If he is bullied, as a brother, I will feel very painful, very painful..."
Yes, remember that kick in the carriage.
"No, he is one of the examiners on your way." The middle-aged man said casually: "Life or death, it's all up to him."
The white-haired man Tu smiled.
Wang Shuai immediately burst into tears: "Master, you are my biological grandfather, grandpa..."
"Be good, try to hold on until I'm there."
"..."
Xu Qingmu turned a blind eye to the bickering between the two men. He was thinking about this mission, including the last addition, killing the old python in the Dijie Mountains.
"Senior Qingqiu, can I ask about the strength of that old python?"
Know yourself and your enemy and you will be victorious in every battle.
"I will suppress his realm to the peak of Ascension Realm, which is equivalent to your thirteenth realm."
Wang Shuai was even more on the verge of tears. He regretted that he should not have chosen to be with his good brothers. But then he became cheerful again and cursed the mantra of his ancestors:
"People die * upward!"
...
After the group finished dinner, Xu Qingmu and Wang Shuai appeared on the Great Wall of Demon Control together. The ten-year-long experience officially began.
Because of his special physique, Liu Liu was taken with him by Senior Qingqiu, who used secret methods to warm up the voodoo body so that he could suppress and control the voodoo. Xu Qingmu also asked the last question in his mind, that is, in the Qinglian space
How long is ten years equivalent to the outside world?
Qing Qiu stretched out five fingers and said: "It's only five hours."
Xu Qingmu felt relieved, it was okay, okay.
However, Qingqiu also warned that since the Qinglian space was opened, it has entered a countdown. At most, it can last for ten years before it will destroy itself.
Thinking about it, if it exists forever and can be practiced casually in space for hundreds of thousands of years, then what's the point?
So after dinner, the two stepped into the magic circle prepared by Qingqiu. As the scenery changed infinitely, the two fell from the sky and landed on the Great Wall of Demon Control that was trembling with the snake demon.
Li Chengru looked through the light curtain at the two people who had joined the war, feeling worried for no reason:
"Old Qiu, is this battle the best in the world?"
Qingqiu, who has lived for an unknown number of years, looked thoughtful, as if comforting himself or Li Chengru:
"My Majesty said that that guy can hold that sword, and one sword is ninety thousand miles long."
There was another pause:
"Your Majesty, you don't lie."
...
Xu Qingmu and Wang Shuai fell from the sky, which shocked the soldiers who were resisting the snake demon. However, looking at the two men carrying swords, they thought they were also on the human side, so the leader was a man with a beard who looked like a leader.
He shouted: "Why are you standing there, waiting to die!"
Xu Qingmu also reacted, took out Chouli and slashed at the attacking snake demons around him. But when Xu Qingmu tried his best, he only left a little white spot on the snake demon's body, which was insignificant.
The attacked snake demon took it all in, swept its tail suddenly, and hit Xu Qingmu directly. Suddenly, an extremely powerful force penetrated his body. Xu Qingmu flew backwards, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his internal organs were in pain.
So strong!
When Wang Shuai saw this, he trembled with fright. What was going on? He didn't even draw his sword, he ran away, hid behind the bearded man, and shouted for help.
The Great Wall of Demon Control is overflowing with aura, and all dead people or beasts turn into a stream of aura and disperse. Snake gallbladders of all sizes on the ground are either trampled to bursting, or devoured by humans or demons, turning them into supplementary nutrients. Demon Control
The shouts on the Great Wall resounded throughout the world, and the roars of the snake demon continued to be heard from under the city wall. The high-level snake demon had transformed into a semi-human shape and was dancing with weapons. It was extremely powerful.
The leading general looked at Xu Qingmu with some surprise, and immediately said: "If you don't have the ability, just go back, don't come up and die!"
He still had a question, why did this man vomit blood?
Even if their arms were broken or lost, their soldiers would only see spiritual energy emanating from the wounds, and no blood would ever flow out!
How strange!
But now is not the time to think about these things. There are still two or three hours before dark, and we still need to work hard to block the attacks of those snake monsters. After thinking about it, he ordered:
"You two are too weak, hurry up and hide!"
After saying that, he stepped forward with his sword again and slashed with the snake monsters.
Wang Shuai immediately hid, watching the broken arms and bodies flying, his chest heaving violently: "My dear, it's too scary, it's too scary."
Of course, he did not forget to pick up two larger snake gallbladders from the ground and quickly stuffed them into his mouth. Xu Qingmu got up from the ground and stepped forward with his sword again, fighting with those snake monsters. Although he was knocked away several times, he still
Still wiping the blood on his mouth, he swung his sword.
It lasted until the sun set in the west, and the snake demons that kept attacking gradually retreated from the Great Wall. Under the command of a demon general who was almost in human form, they continued to retreat from the Great Wall, and almost all the snake gallbladders in the place were taken away.
Only a few scattered ones were left, glowing in various colors on the ground.
The human side finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to count the number of people. Captain Beard arranged for some people to go and count the snake gallbladders left on the ground, while others began to bandage the injured. For a time, everything was orderly and the division of labor was clear.
Xu Qingmu was covered in blood and sat on the ground breathing heavily.
Wang Shuai stuck his head out from behind, squinted his eyes and looked around. After making sure that no one was there, he ran out. He first checked Xu Qingmu's injuries. After making sure that there was no problem, he enthusiastically joined the group of snake gall collectors.
Then, under the extremely shocked and contemptuous eyes of all the soldiers, he stuffed his whole mouth.
The bearded general inserted his sword and sat next to Xu Qingmu:
"Stranger?"
Xu Qingmu nodded, reached out to take the apricot flower wine handed over by General Beard, and took a sip. Maybe the strong wine choked his throat, and he coughed twice, which affected the wound, and he grinned for a while.
"Why did you appear on the Great Wall of Demon Control?"
Xu Qingmu did not explain. He just said that he came to fight and hone himself. He said to General Beard: "My name is Xu Qingmu."
General Beard took a sip of wine and said, "You can call me Zhuo Zhe. I am a fourth-level warrior."
Then he asked: "Seeing as you are equipped with a sword, what level of sword cultivator are you? Since you were swept away by the tail of the second-level snake demon just now, do you think you have just started?"
Xu Qingmi bared her teeth even more fiercely. Was it the weaker second-level snake demon that was fighting with her emotionally?
But then he became even more worried. How could he complete the task of walking deep into the Dijie Mountains and killing the old python?
Sad.
Looking at Wang Shuai who picked up a relatively large snake gallbladder and smiled from ear to ear, he thought about the future fate of the Wang family.
Fortunately, ten years is still a long time.
Xu Qingmu asked again: "General Zhuo, do you know what level the old python is in the Dijie Mountains?"
"Snake King? Jiu Jing, I saw it once during the siege of the city. With just one tail, most of the city wall was broken." Zhuo Zhe's eyes were a little horrified. He recalled the scene at that time. The hundred-foot-long body was twisting and its destructive power was unparalleled.
.
Xu Qingmu asked again: "What is the highest level among us humans?"
The general shook his head, his eyes full of anger: "Sixth level."
He grabbed a piece of snake gall handed over by the soldier, put it in and finally chewed it: "Once human strength reaches the sixth level, it will no longer start to increase. No matter how hard you practice, it will be in vain."
Xu Qingmu could see that there was some loss and resentment in the general's eyes.
"Otherwise, with the diligence and wisdom of us humans, we would have defeated it long ago. The Dijie Mountain Range is not worth mentioning!"
He took another bite of snake gall, his eyes even more dissatisfied. Then he reached out and handed one to Xu Qingmu: "Eat some to replenish your spiritual power."
Xu Qingmu reached out to take it and said thank you.
General Zhuo Zhe talked to Xu Qingmu about various things in the Qinglian space, and personally brought Xu Qingmu and Wang Shuai home to meet Mrs. Zhuo and their six or seven-year-old son.
During dinner, Zhuo Zhe held a simple reception banquet for Xu Qingmu. Although the food was sparse and simple, it was enjoyable.
When they went to bed at night, Xu Qingmu and Wang Shuai slept together in the simple room prepared. They looked at the leaky roof and remained silent for a long time.
