For the people of Southern Territory, Yu Huang is almost equivalent to a demigod in Southern Territory, that is, the spiritual belief second only to Wu Shen.
Many followers even stubbornly believe that Yu Huang did not die, but has ascended to become a god and gone to the realm of the gods.
In Nai's view, if Yu Huanglian can't even pass the fifth trial, then the sixth and seventh trials with higher difficulty are already worthless.
Who else can pass?
Time passed minute by minute, Lin Ming took out the True Essence Stone and operated the Chaotic True Essence Art, slowly recovering his true essence. The flame and thunder power that were consumed earlier due to the Thunderfire Kill were also slowly recovering.
Due to the powerful force of Qi and Blood, Lin Ming's recovery ability now far surpasses that of ordinary warriors. In just half a time, he had fully recovered.
"Let's start, fifth round!" Lin Ming shouted at the already disappeared Yan Meng.
"Alright, as you wish! The fifth trial, Mortal Realm. This trial has not been passed by anyone for over 10,000 years!"
"More than ten thousand years..."
Lin Ming didn't find it unexpected. The previous level hadn't been passed in over 6,000 years, so it was normal that this level hadn't been passed in over 10,000 years either.
The surrounding space suddenly turned dark, and Lin Ming arrived in a desolate space. Under his feet was the vast earth, and above his head was the brilliant starry sky. Around Lin Ming, eighteen illusory figures appeared. They were all human warriors, dressed in black clothes, holding various types of weapons such as swords, knives, guns, and clubs, etc., with eighteen kinds of martial arts, each one perfect.
Lin Ming noticed the cultivation of this group of warriors, and his heart suddenly sank. Among these eighteen people, twelve were actually at the peak of Bone Forging, and six were in the Pulse Condensation period!
How can we fight like this?
Lin Ming was speechless, no wonder nobody had passed through here for over 10,000 years.
Among these six Condensing Pulse warriors, five had just entered the Condensing Pulse stage, and one was even in the middle of the Condensing Pulse stage. The remaining twelve Bone Forging peak warriors were also half a step into the Condensing Pulse stage, each one more formidable than the monkey-faced man and the bald giant before them.
Lin Ming couldn't help but wonder if it was really possible for the entire Tianyun Continent to find a fifteen-year-old youth who could single-handedly take down these eighteen freaks.
Is it really possible for anyone to pass this assessment?
According to what the old man said, it seems that more than 10,000 years ago, there were still people who had passed by... Unbelievable!
From the third pass to the fourth pass, the difficulty has soared. If it weren't for having Lei Huo Sha, it would be impossible to get through.
Who would have thought that this fifth level would see another surge in difficulty? How are the sixth and seventh levels even possible to pass?
"This life-and-death trial is really abnormal. Before entering the life-and-death trial, I could only deal with one Condensing Pulse warrior at most, but now there are six of them at once! And one of them is in the middle of Condensing Pulse, and there are also twelve Extreme Bone Refining warriors holding me back, it's really looking down on me." Lin Ming grasped the heavy Profound Soft Silver Spear, his true yuan circulating throughout his body. Although the hope of passing this trial was slim, he would still go all out to fight.
"Life and death trials are the real killing arrays, I must be careful again and again. If I'm no match, I'll have to give up; otherwise, if I'm not vigilant for a moment, I'll lose my life here."
Facing so many masters, Lin Ming couldn't dare charge into the enemy ranks like he used to. A tiger entering a flock of sheep was essentially suicide.
"Whoosh!"
A warrior holding a long stick charged towards Lin Ming first, sweeping his stick towards Lin Ming's knee. At the same time, another warrior with a knife took a step forward, his gleaming blade sealing off all possible directions for Lin Ming to dodge.
"Golden Peng breaks the void!" Lin Ming unfolded his body technique, his body slipping through the attacks of the two warriors like a fish swimming in water. Although he could block their attacks, he didn't dare to engage in close combat, or else he would be surrounded and killed for sure.
His body pulled out a string of phantoms, speeding up to an unbelievable degree, dodging three or four attacks in a row, and appearing behind a warrior who used the Flowing Star Hammer like a ghost.
The meteor hammer is a niche weapon, suitable for long-range attacks. If it's close combat, it will be restricted everywhere, so Lin Ming chose him as his first target!
"The dragon rises from the sea!"
Lin Ming shot out with his Heavy Profound Soft Silver Spear, that Flowing Star Battle-Axe cultivator was only at the peak of Bone Forging Stage, but he reacted extremely quickly, his two hands shook and the Flowing Star Battle-Axe's chain wrapped towards Lin Ming's spear.
"Crack!"
The chain tightly wrapped around the heavy silver spearhead, directly jamming it.
Just pin down Lin Ming's weapon for a few blinks of an eye, and Lin Ming will face the group attack of eighteen martial artists. At that time, he can only abandon his weapon, otherwise he can't dodge at all.
At this moment, Lin Ming's mouth curled up with an arc, and a thick electric arc suddenly jumped out, rushing along the chain towards that Flowing Star Hammer warrior.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"
Meteor Hammer Warrior was electrocuted, his whole body numb. Lin Ming took advantage of the opportunity to let out a loud roar, and a force of 10,000 kilograms burst forth. His right hand heavily slapped the tail of the Soft Silver Spear, directly breaking open the chain lock. With a fierce thrust, he stabbed towards Meteor Hammer Warrior's throat.
"Pffft!"
One shot to the throat!
With one move, he killed a martial artist at the peak of Tempering Bone, and Lin Ming didn't dare to stay for even a moment, withdrawing his sword and retreating violently.
"Whoosh!"
Right where Lin Ming was standing, a halberd as thick as an infant's arm came crashing down, and with a loud rumble, a large area of the rocky ground was smashed in. This was the attack of that mid-stage cultivator.
Lin Ming secretly wiped a cold sweat, this was truly a killing array. If he had dodged half a second later earlier, he might have been beaten to the point of being half-dead, and then instantly killed by the subsequent attacks of other warriors, without even having the chance to give up on the trial.
At this moment, Lin Ming suddenly felt a pure and unadulterated heavenly energy surging into his body. It was the influx of this heavenly energy that caused Lin Ming's true yuan, which had already been at its limit, to finally break through and formally enter the peak of Easy Tendon!
"Huh? This mortal realm is increasing true yuan and cultivation?"
Lin Ming was overjoyed, previously the Hell Boundary, Hungry Ghost Boundary, Beast Realm and Slave Realm did not directly increase his cultivation, such as what Qi Blood Force, Soul Force, although it would be very beneficial for Lin Ming's future cultivation, but for a direct boost in power, it wasn't too great, unlike this cultivation breakthrough, from one boundary to another, that was a qualitative change.
"Just killed one and already reached the peak of Easy Tendon, if I kill them all, what level should I be at?" Lin Ming's fighting spirit surged, "First kill the Tempering Marrow stage, then kill the Condensing Pulse stage!"
After the Easy Muscle Peak, Lin Ming's strength increased by a large margin, and his speed also became faster. Under the blessing of the Golden Peng Broken Void Body Method, his figure was like a ghostly shadow, and the attacks of the Bone Forging stage martial artist couldn't even touch him.
It can be said that Jinpeng Breaking Void is the foundation for Lin Ming to stand firm in this situation. Otherwise, once he falls into a heavy siege, he will immediately fall.
With his extreme agility, Lin Ming unfolded a guerrilla warfare, and the Thunder Force attached to the Heavy Profound Soft Silver Spear was a deadly killer.
A warrior with similar strength to Lin Ming, being electrocuted would result in complete paralysis. In a battle between experts, this momentary paralysis is enough to determine the outcome of the fight.
"Gasp!"
Lin Ming swept away the skull of a tempered bone peak warrior with one shot, and his true yuan surged up again.
"It's really beyond the limit of endurance!"
Lin Ming was overjoyed in his heart. He had only just broken through the Easy Muscle period a little more than a month ago, and yet he was already about to enter the Tempering Marrow stage so quickly.
Just then, Lin Ming suddenly felt as if his body had sunk into some kind of mire, and every movement he made was being pulled by some strange power, slowing down.
Turning around, he saw that the mid-stage warrior holding the Fang Tian Hua Halberd had inserted it into the ground, and waves of solidified True Yuan fluctuations were constantly bursting out of his body.
"Manipulating gravity?"
Just as Lin Ming had this thought, a sword-wielding cultivator in the Condensation Period appeared behind him like a ghost, his hand rising and falling, a dark blue sword energy shooting straight towards Lin Ming.
"Damn it!"
Lin Ming raised his gun to block, but the sword energy was too fierce. Even though it was blocked for a moment, some of it still scraped past the barrel and cut into Lin Ming's body.
"Hiss!"
Lin Ming's outer armor was directly torn apart, revealing the purple gold soft armor inside. A fierce surge of true yuan burst into the soft armor, mercilessly piercing Lin Ming's five organs and six viscera.
Lin Ming grunted and his body flew backward, but he quickly stabilized himself. He examined his body and was surprised, "Huh? Nothing?"
Although it was painful, his internal organs were not damaged. Such a strong defense power made Lin Ming himself unbelievable. "It was during the fourth layer that killing that witch slave changed my physique. It's really abnormal. This is an attack by a master of the Congming period, and although it's just a residual wave, it's enough to kill ordinary Easy Muscle period warriors. But I withstood it without getting hurt."
That swordsman was just a puppet conjured up by the primordial energy of heaven and earth, he didn't understand surprise, seeing that one move had no effect, he came to kill with his sword.
Lin Ming naturally wouldn't engage in a prolonged battle with him, his body flashed and the Golden Peng Breaking Void movement technique was unleashed, Lin Ming instantly appeared behind the two peak Bone Forging martial artists.
"Hah! Hah!"
Two more heads flew up, and two more people were killed!
After Lin Ming reached the limit of Easy tendon, killing the peak of Wu Zhe was already very easy.
Two strands of pure energy poured into Lin Ming's meridians, causing his body to shudder. He felt as if his entire skeletal system was numb and tingling, as if something had drilled into his bones.
The skeleton becomes more compact and tougher.
"True yuan enters the bones, tempering bone phase!"
At that moment, Lin Ming officially entered the Bone Forging stage.
The mighty true yuan poured into his four limbs, Lin Ming felt a surge of power throughout his body. It was as if something inside him had been ignited, and his blood was boiling with excitement.
Seeing that the sword-wielding warrior was about to strike again, Lin Ming let out a loud shout and thrust his spear forward.
"Train strength like silk!"
"Boom!" Five thousand strands of True Yuan burst forth, each one several times thicker than before. Such a powerful True Yuan caused the sword aura of the Condensation Period warrior to be torn apart!
