There are thirteen elders in the formation pavilion, and they are all in the elders' hall at the moment. An old man is sitting on the main seat in the front, and the other twelve elders are on both sides, including Lu You.
"Next is the third assessment of the Formation Pavilion. If you pass it, you will be qualified to obtain the Donghua Order. Therefore, I hope that you will go all out and not stop here." The octogenarian said slowly.
The old man's voice was very hoarse, but it seemed to have a strange magical power that made people willing to listen with calmness.
"According to what the seniors said, if we pass the assessment, we will only be qualified to obtain the Donghua Order. Whether we can obtain the Donghua Order in the end is still uncertain?" A question came out, and the person who spoke was none other than Xiao Muyang.
Many elders looked at Xiao Muyang with quite surprised expressions on their faces. It seemed that this man was determined to win the Donghua Order. The assessment had not even started yet, but they were already thinking about what was to come.
"That's the theory." The old man looked at Xiao Muyang and said with a smile.
"Theoretically?" Xiao Muyang looked surprised and continued to ask: "What about in practice?"
"The master of the palace has deliberately emphasized that the Donghua Order must be given to people with outstanding talents. Therefore, the forces holding the Donghua Order must strictly select talents." The elderly man explained: "However, the final decision-making power lies with each force.
On hand."
"When you can get the Donghua Order, it doesn't depend on the array, but on yourselves. Can you understand what I mean?"
The old man looked at Xiao Muyang with kind eyes, and his tone was very gentle, as if he were treating his own juniors, without the slightest airs.
"I understand." Xiao Muyang replied with a profound look in his eyes.
The implication of the old man's words is that when the order is given to Donghua, he will be divided among the people.
In this case, he must take it seriously.
"The first round is to examine your formation ability, the second round is to examine your understanding of the Tao, and the third round is to examine your comprehensive ability." The old man said again, making the eyes of Xiao Muyang and the others flicker. Comprehensive ability?
How to investigate this?
I saw the old man waving his palm, and three rays of light flew out, landing in front of Xiao Muyang, Cheng Nan and Liu Su respectively. They were three iron boxes, which seemed to be made of special metal. It was impossible to see what was inside.
thing.
Xiao Muyang and the others' eyes fell on the iron box in front of them. They all looked puzzled and couldn't guess what this thing did.
"There is a formation in the iron box in front of you. The difficulty is the same. You release your spiritual power and enter it, and then you can break the formation with your thoughts. Ultimately, whether you pass the test will be judged based on the time it takes you to break the formation." The old man spoke again.
"I see."
Xiao Muyang suddenly understood. It turned out that he wanted them to break the formation, but it was different from the ordinary way of breaking the formation. This time, he used his mind to break the formation. He had never tried it before.
"Start now."
As soon as the old man's voice fell, Xiao Muyang and the others immediately released their spiritual power and entered the iron box in front of them.
After a while, a formation appeared in their minds, and their thoughts were incarnated in the formation, as if they were in the real world. At least there was no difference visible to the naked eye.
Outside, the old man waved his palm again, and he saw three light curtains appearing in the space. The scene shown above the light curtain was exactly what Xiao Muyang, Cheng Nan and Liu Su were experiencing at the moment.
The elders looked at the three light curtains, and every move of the three people was under their sight.
Xiao Muyang stood still and did not move. He was not in a hurry to break the formation. He looked around and looked at the scene inside the formation.
I saw seven swords inserted in different directions, and the breath released by each sword was different. There were swords of flames, swords of frost, and swords of storm. Seven different sword intentions flowed in the space, which seemed very strange.
Quiet and harmonious, no conflicts broke out.
“It blends together perfectly.”
Xiao Muyang was very surprised. The seven sword intentions were fused together, and the person who created this formation must be an extremely powerful sword cultivator.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Xiao Muyang's mind. Should he break the formation directly, or should he first think about how to break the formation and then break the formation?
The advantage of the former is that it can have better access to formations and adapt to changes. Some formations may seem calm on the surface and have no flaws. Only through personal experience can one find the way to break the formation.
The advantage of the latter is that it can make decisions before acting and will not make wrong moves due to carelessness.
Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, which need to be determined according to the situation.
After Xiao Muyang thought about it for a while, he finally decided to break the formation directly.
Judging from the formation in front of us, it is difficult to come up with a way to break the formation in a short period of time, and the old man said before that the time to break the formation is the criterion that determines whether to pass the assessment.
I saw Xiao Muyang stepping on the Liuying True Phantom Step, heading in a certain direction, and the moment he moved, three swords trembled at the same time. They were the flame sword, the storm sword and the thunder sword. The three swords
A sharp sword roar was emitted, shaking the space.
Then sword rays were released one after another, drawing extremely gorgeous arcs in the space. These sword rays contained different powers, and they all shot towards Xiao Muyang's body.
Feeling those sword lights shooting towards him one after another, Xiao Muyang's expression couldn't help but change. Do these sword lights have self-awareness?
Otherwise, why would everyone shoot at him?
But now is obviously not the time to think about this problem. Xiao Muyang's feet became a little faster, and his figure kept flickering in the air, avoiding those sword lights skillfully.
When the elders outside saw Xiao Muyang's actions, one elder smiled and said: "Although this guy's cultivation level is not high, his reaction is very fast and his speed is not bad."
"The Seven-Star Sword Array is quite difficult. If you rely solely on speed and reflexes, you are doomed to fail." An elder next to him said calmly.
"Indeed." Many elders nodded lightly. If they want to break through the seven-star sword ray formation, they must discover the mystery of this formation. Otherwise, it will just be a waste of time, and they will not be able to dodge those sword rays after all.
Judging from Xiao Muyang's current performance, it seems that he is just running away and has no time to observe the formation.
There was only one elder who looked very serious and kept staring at the picture on the light screen without saying a word. This elder was Lu You.
He had seen Xiao Muyang's array talent, and he was definitely a genius. Although the Seven-Star Sword Light Array was quite difficult, he firmly believed that Xiao Muyang would be able to break through it.
In addition to Xiao Muyang, the elders were also observing Cheng Nan and Liu Su and found that their conditions were not much better than Xiao Muyang's and they were all in danger.
Although the formations the three of them are in are different, the difficulty is not much different. This arrangement is naturally to ensure the fairness of the competition.
The octogenarian man at the front glanced at the three light screens, and there was not much trouble on his old face. He had seen countless geniuses, and his state of mind had already reached a transcendent state. No matter what happened, he would not be too surprised.
At this moment, he only cares about one thing. Among the three, how many will pass this round of assessment?
