"Die!"

  Lin Ming took a step forward, his long spear thrust out like a venomous snake, bursting with energy!

  "Ding ding ding ding ding ding!"

  In an instant, the two men exchanged blows countless times, and Lin Ming actually used his heavy spear to compete with the sword in terms of speed, and he didn't fall behind!

  "Power of Thunder!"

  With a loud "zing" sound, a thick purple electric light flashed, and the swordsman in the Condensation Period was shocked to numbness all over his body. Lin Ming raised his gun and stabbed again, but at this moment, the warrior holding the Fang Tian Hua Halberd struck heavily!

  Clang!

  Lin Ming raised his gun to meet the attack, and the spear and halberd clashed. The nine-foot-nine-inch-long heavy mysterious soft silver spear firmly held off the thick, child's arm-sized Fang Tianhua halberd.

  Lin Ming blocked the full-force strike of the martial artist in the Cong Pulse stage!

  "Give me defeat!"

  Lin Ming activated the power of the evil god, and the powers of thunder and fire intersected. A ball of thunderfire the size of a human head appeared on the Heavy Profound Soft Silver Spear, "Thunderfire Kill!"

  "Boom!"

  A highly compressed flame and thunder power burst forth, a thousand feet of golden light pierced through the dark night sky, an unmatched powerful air wave scattered out, several nearby warriors were directly blown away!

  Those mid-term warriors who used Fang Tian Hua's halberd were completely enveloped in such a fierce explosion, with all their internal organs shattered and dying instantly.

  Under the restraint of so many warriors, he killed a mid-term warrior in Condensed Pulse with one move. Lin Ming himself was also slightly stunned, and unknowingly, his combat power had grown to this extent.

  A surge of heavenly energy several times more concentrated than before poured into Lin Ming's body, his true essence penetrating deeper into his bones and muscles under the nourishment of this heavenly energy, and only just entering the Bone Forging Stage, his cultivation had already been consolidated.

  Lin Ming's heart was both shocked and delighted. If this continued, his cultivation might soar to the peak of Bone Forging!

  At that time, his combat power will be raised to what extent?

  Killed the strongest martial artist. Without the strange gravity restriction before, plus Lin Ming's own strength increase, under this situation, the pressure he faced greatly reduced.

  He no longer used guerrilla tactics and charged directly into the enemy ranks with his spear!

  Tempering Bone Period's peak warrior was no longer his match, Heavy Mystical Soft Silver Spear swept out with one shot, and a Tempering Bone Period warrior died. The enemy was getting fewer and fewer, while Lin Ming was getting stronger and stronger!

  It was just a half-column of fragrance. More than a dozen corpses had already fallen to the ground. In front of Lin Ming, only four condensed pulse warriors were left, and at this time, Lin Ming's cultivation had already been promoted to Tempering Bone Great Completion!

  The next battle was no longer suspenseful.

  At the beginning of the Condensing Pulse stage, Wu Zhe was no longer Lin Ming's opponent.

  With one breath, he killed the remaining four people, and Lin Ming's strength reached the peak of Bone Forging in one go!

  "Tempering Bone Peak..." Lin Ming took a deep breath. Clenching his fists, he felt his entire body filled with power, an unprecedented sense of strength!

  This fifth pass is too much of a boost in strength, even Lin Ming feels somewhat unreal.

  If it weren't for his increased strength, Lin Ming wouldn't have been able to pass this test.

  If the sixth layer still enhances his cultivation, will he be promoted to the Condensing Pulse Realm or even the Great Completion of the Condensing Pulse?

  However, this possibility is not very high, and the method of rapidly increasing one's power by absorbing large amounts of pure heavenly and earthly energy is similar to eating heavenly materials and earthly treasures, which cannot be infinitely increased, otherwise one's cultivation will become unstable.

  At this moment, Yan Meng appeared and gazed at Lin Ming for a brief moment before saying: "Congratulations to you, Trial taker. You are probably the most talented young man I have seen in my 19,000 years of presiding over the Trials of Life and Death! I look forward to seeing you pass the sixth trial, one that no one has ever passed from ancient times to the present. You still have three hours to recover your strength."

  "Has anyone ever passed from ancient times to the present?" Lin Ming slightly furrowed his brow, "Just the sixth floor and no one has passed, so isn't the seventh floor even more ridiculously difficult? Is the difficulty set by Senior Wugou too high?"

  "The master's arrangements, I have no right to comment on. Perhaps the master overestimated the talents of Nanjiang, or perhaps the master intentionally did so. The Witch God Tower may exist for tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years. Just because no one has passed the sixth layer in 19,000 years doesn't mean that no one will in the future. Leaving opportunities for the most outstanding talents is probably also the master's wish. The master only left three gifts as the final reward for the trial of life and death. Take one away, and there will be one less. If the difficulty was too low, they would have been taken long ago."

  Lin Ming asked again: "Then in these 19,000 years, how many people have entered the Trial by Fire and what level have they reached?"

  "Altogether, 32 people have entered the trial of life and death. Three stopped at the third layer, the Beast Realm; 26 stopped at the fourth layer, the Witch Slave Realm. Among these 29 people, seven died! Only three passed through the fourth layer, the Witch Slave Realm, and only one person passed through the fifth layer, the Mortal Realm. Now you are the second. Congratulations on passing all the trials, take away one of the three treasures left by the master."

  Did he pass all the trials? Lin Ming took a deep breath and to be honest, he didn't have absolute confidence. From the fourth floor onwards, the difficulty had increased too quickly. If his cultivation hadn't suddenly risen by an entire major boundary, he wouldn't have been able to make it here.

  "What are those three treasures after all? Can I see them now?" Lin Ming asked.

  "Alright." The eye beast didn't hide anything from Lin Ming, in fact, these three treasures were originally going to be shown to Lin Ming anyway, and let him make a choice.

  As soon as Lin Ming's mind stirred, a ripple of distortion appeared in the space before him, and three treasures suddenly materialized in front of him.

  These three treasures, the first is a dark golden scroll, only over a foot wide, with two rollers that feel like they are made of animal bones. The surface is wrapped in silk, and when rolled up, it's no more than an inch thick. Just by looking at it, you can feel a vast and profound aura of the ancient Taoist way!

  The second piece is a dark red crystal, in the center of which is sealed a small deep red thread, looking like a crystal containing a hair crystal.

  What is called "hair crystal" is a kind of needle-like mineral contained in crystal, with diverse shapes and varied forms. Because their shape resembles hair, they are called "hair crystal", which is relatively common in crystal.

  But what's strange is that the crystal inclusions in ordinary crystals are inanimate objects, while this "crystal inclusion" seems to be moving slowly like a small snake inside the crystal, as if the interior of the red crystal is liquid-like, incredibly mysterious.

  The third item was an off-white jade vase with mottled patterns. Although it was unknown what was inside the vase, just looking at the vase made Lin Ming's heart skip a beat. The mottled patterns on the vase seemed to contain some profound truth, and after gazing at it for a long time, one could almost become mesmerized by it.

  Seeing these three treasures, Lin Ming couldn't help but breathe rapidly. He had originally thought that the Witch God might have left behind some divine weapon or powerful artifact, but instead, she had left behind these three completely mysterious objects.

  Although I don't know what the three treasures are, just looking at that aura makes me feel their extraordinary nature.

  This made Lin Ming's heart beat faster, and he couldn't help but want to possess all three treasures for himself.

  Unfortunately... I can only choose one thing, but the premise is still to pass the seventh layer!

  "What are the effects of these treasures?" Lin Ming asked. He could only choose one, so he had to carefully consider their effects.

  But unexpectedly, the eye mask listened to Lin Ming's words and said: "Sorry, I can't explain the specific effect, because the value of these three treasures is not the same. In order to ensure fairness for each trialist who enters the Witch God Tower, you can only choose by yourself."

  "Are they not of equal value?" Lin Ming was taken aback, and then slightly furrowed his brow. It seemed that he could only rely on luck to choose which one had the highest value.

  Three items, each of which looked like a treasure, but Lin Ming first excluded the dark golden ancient scroll. This kind of scroll was probably used to record some sort of skill, martial technique or alchemy and medicine techniques.

  It might be the witch god's own cultivation method, sorted out and passed down to later generations.

  Top-notch skills are of course precious, and for a martial artist, they're the most important thing. However, Lin Ming already has many of these skills, and he'll even acquire new ones in the future. So, when it comes to Wu Shen's skills, Lin Ming isn't particularly eager.

  What's left is the jade vase with colorful patterns and the crystal sealed with red silk threads.

  Which one of these two things is more precious?

  Lin Ming guessed that what was inside the jade bottle might be some kind of spiritual elixir or wonderful medicine.

  Most of the spiritual elixirs and magical medicines are used to enhance one's cultivation, while a small number of them are used to improve one's physical constitution and temper the body.

  As for the red crystal, he had no idea what it was or what its function was. He tried to probe it with his soul force, but his soul force couldn't penetrate the red crystal at all. It seemed as if there was another world inside the crystal. Even Lin Ming couldn't be sure whether the red thread was a living thing or a dead object.

  "What exactly is that red thread? If it's a living thing, could it be some kind of contract beast or spirit beast, and what would its function be? If it's an inanimate object, then is it a precious mineral that can be used to forge divine artifacts? Or perhaps it can be ingested to increase one's cultivation?"

  Lin Ming looked at the red crystal and suddenly had a strong urge to choose it, wondering what its effect would be.

  Yan Mou didn't urge Lin Ming at all, silently floating beside him, letting Lin Ming continuously use his soul force to examine the three treasures.

  After a moment of hesitation, Lin Ming finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "I'll choose this red crystal!"

  He couldn't resist the strong idea in his heart, although the spiritual elixir was good too. Lin Ming's current physique was already very good, and he would have opportunities to obtain heaven-sent treasures that could improve his physique in the future.

  As for increasing why, as long as you work hard to cultivate it, accumulating over the years will be the same.

  But that red crystal, for some reason, Lin Ming had a strong premonition in his heart, as if he missed this opportunity, he would never be able to get it again.

  There will be another update later tonight, possibly after 11pm or even midnight.
