Chapter 146: Passing the Gale Bridge, Second Trial
Lin Xuan took a few more steps forward and heard a scream from behind.
A martial artist had bled too much and slipped, falling to the edge of the bridge.
The wind blew violently, almost blowing this martial artist off the bridge.
Because he had lost too much blood, he had already exhausted a lot of his strength and could not grab anything at all.
“Catch me!”!!
One of the martial artists beside him shouted and forced himself to grab him.
The outcome was obvious.
The two of them were already exhausted and could not grab anything at all. The others could only watch as they fell off the bridge.
The two of them were blown off the bridge and into the seemingly calm river below.
The next moment, the calm river surface actually boiled like boiling water.
“Ah!”
A tragic cry sounded again. Lin Xuan subconsciously looked towards the river and was surprised to see piranhas with sharp teeth crazily devouring these two martial artists.
The sharp teeth of the piranhas were as sharp as razors. Although they could only bite down a little each time, a large number of piranhas swarmed over and instantly ate the two martial artists clean.
Blood dyed the river!
These were also the two people who had died first in the Gale Bridge trial!
All the martial artists who witnessed this scene were shocked.
From the looks of it, if one did not have the ability, they definitely could not bother saving others. Otherwise, one might even lose their life.
Lin Xuan also shook his head slightly.
The martial artist who saved the guy who fell had good intentions. Unfortunately, he had overestimated his ability.
On the third bridge.
Xiang Tianxiu had already jogged all the way to the middle of the bridge.
Immediately after were Flame Explosion and Cold Domain.
After that, there were still Silver Fox and the others.
“No way, no way. Is the Gale Bridge this simple? Does this mean that anyone with feet can easily cross it?”
Xiang Tianxiu shook his head repeatedly.
Before coming, he had thought that the Heavenly Dragon Zen Temple’s nine trials were very difficult.
Teacher Li Weiguo also instructed him not to underestimate these trials.
He did not expect it to be so surprisingly simple.
At this moment, Xiang Tianxiu saw the piranhas begin to jump on the river.
“Stop jumping. No matter how you jump, you won’t be able to jump up.” Xiang Tianxiu sneered.
At this moment, a piranha jumped higher and higher and finally jumped onto the bridge!
“Damn.” Xiang Tianxiu was fast and dodged lightly.
The piranha fell onto the bridge and swayed its tail weakly.
Soon, it died because of lack of water.
Flame Explosion and Cold Domain looked up at the corpse of the piranha.
Indeed, in less than a minute, the corpse of the piranha evaporated and disappeared.
“If these piranhas can only scare people, that would be too boring.” Xiang Tianxiu shrugged and even looked back at Flame Explosion and Cold Domain. “Gentlemen, don’t you think so?”
As soon as Xiang Tianxiu finished speaking.
A large number of piranhas began to jump persistently.
Moreover, they were jumping higher and higher.
In the end, some could actually jump more than five meters high and directly jump over the bridge!
“Ah!”
On the second bridge, a martial artist was wrapped in a large amount of sand. His body became extremely bloated and his speed decreased.
He was working hard to smash the sand and rocks on his body, but he did not know that a piranha had already jumped up and landed on his head.
With a click.
A large portion of this martial artist’s scalp and hair were directly bitten off, and blood flowed non-stop.
The martial artist screamed and casually stepped on the piranha to death.
However, by the time he reacted, he was already at the edge of the bridge.
There was also a large patch of sand that was headed towards him.
He lost his balance and fell into the river.
The piranhas immediately swarmed over and ate, instantly turning him into a white skeleton.
On the four bridges, screams sounded continuously.
Martial artists were constantly attacked by the piranhas and a large piece of flesh was bitten off their bodies.
The sneak attack of the piranhas worked really well with the four different violent winds on the Gale Bridge, causing martial artists to fall into the river from time to time.
Every time, it would dye the river red!
The martial artists were all in danger and did not dare to underestimate this trial at all.
Lin Xuan’s expression did not change.
Indeed, this was the Gale Bridge with a difficulty that had increased by 200%.
Xiang Tianxiu also became cautious at this moment. As he advanced, he would pay attention to the piranhas above his head, on his left, and on his right.
Moreover, he also discovered that as he walked further and further on the bridge, the violent wind that corroded his mind had already taken effect on him and pierced his nerves slightly.
In this situation, he still needed to multitask. He also needed to pay attention to the sneak attacks of the piranhas.
Of course, this was already a common occurrence for Lin Xuan.
“Aside from testing if my corresponding attribute points are high enough, this trial also tests my ability to multitask. This trial is indeed not difficult for me.”
Lin Xuan chuckled.
Multitasking was already a common occurrence for him.
Time slowly passed.
The first batch of martial artists of the four bridges had already arrived on the other side.
Lin Xuan deliberately delayed for a few minutes and arrived on the other side after Ye Yuqiu.
On the other side was a firm and flat limestone ground. There was also a light screen in the center. That was the light screen that would teleport them out of the Heavenly Dragon Zen Temple.
At this moment, Lin Xuan suddenly discovered that everyone around him had disappeared and he was completely enveloped by the fog.
Lin Xuan was not surprised.
This was because he had seen the records of the Heavenly Dragon Zen Temple five years ago.
Every time he passed a trial, he would be wrapped in fog. Then, a treasure would randomly appear.
As expected, the fog in front of him suddenly dispersed, revealing a treasure chest flickering with golden light.
Lin Xuan stepped forward and knocked lightly. The treasure chest opened, and golden light shone brightly.
What appeared in front of him was a fist-sized green irregular ball.
Wind kept howling around the ball, as if there was wind lingering around it.
Lin Xuan used his High-Level Observer skill to check and immediately understood what this was.
Storm Core! A golden item! When used to forge equipment, it could increase the speed of the equipment by 10%. However, this item could only be used for feet equipment.
He looked at his avatars and discovered that the things they obtained were all very strange.
There were skill books that increased movement speed, short knives with shocking bleeding effects, and runes that increased attack speed.
“Looks like it’s completely random.”
Lin Xuan was deep in thought.
At this moment, the fog beside him had already completely disappeared. He discovered that he was still standing on the spot, and beside him were Xiang Tianxiu, Ye Yuqiu, and his avatars.
“What did you guys obtain? I’m really lucky to have obtained the Lightning Core!” Xiang Tianxiu chuckled. “When you use this thing to forge a staff, it can increase the staff’s lightning damage by 10%. I’m already planning to forge a new staff after leaving.”
“By the way, the rewards of the Heavenly Dragon Zen Temple this time are so generous!”
Ye Yuqiu said, “I obtained a ring that increases my strength by 5 points. It’s neither good nor bad.”
As they conversed, some martial artists had already arrived at the resting area through the Gale Bridge.
Some martial artists were already covered in injuries. After careful consideration, they decided to leave through the light screen.
In any case, they had already passed the first trial and had already profited. They decided to stop while they were ahead.
However, many martial artists still decided to continue to the second trial.
If one did not work hard, one would be no different from a salted fish!
At this moment, the fog dispersed on its own, and two tall mountains and a long and narrow passage appeared in front of them.
At this moment, a large number of rocks rolled down from the high mountain from time to time. Some were big and some were small, but every one of them would cause a huge noise when they smashed into the ground.
This was the second trial, the One-Line Sky.
No matter what method the cultivators used, it was fine as long as they could pass through the One-Line Sky.
According to the records of the Heavenly Dragon Zen Temple five years ago, this line was not difficult.
He could either use his superb movement speed and reaction speed to directly run over. This method was also the fastest.
Or they could blast their way through and destroy all the falling rocks.
Of course, they rely on brute force to pass through.
As long as one’s Constitution was high enough, being hit by a few rocks was nothing. They could use their shields to resist.
These three methods were suitable for various professions.
“Forward!”
Xiang Tianxiu was the most enthusiastic.
He rushed into the sky and a rock the size of a head smashed towards him as soon as he entered.
Xiang Tianxiu raised his hand and threw a lightning ball.
Boom!
The rock exploded.
“This is nothing. It’s very simple!”
Xiang Tianxiu continued forward.
Lin Xuan and the others also followed closely.
Everyone displayed their own abilities.
Ye Yuqiu directly slashed out with her sword light and shattered the rocks.
Flame Explosion and Cold Domain shattered it with spells.
Lin Xuan took out the Giant Thunder Spear and threw it. Every illusory thunder spear could cause the rocks to explode
Poison Blade dodged at an extremely fast speed.
As for Brother Milk, he took out a shield under everyone’s shocked gazes.
Poison Blade said in surprise, “You even use a shield?”
Brother Milk said embarrassedly, “I’m just a healer and don’t have much self-protection ability, so it shouldn’t be hard to guess why I carry a shield, right?”
The others thought for a moment. This seemed reasonable, so they nodded.
The trial seemed to be very simple at the moment.
If that was the case, it was only a matter of time before they passed the One-Line Sky.
However, Lin Xuan knew that it was definitely not that simple.
After all, the difficulty had increased by 200%. Did they think of that as a joke?
As expected.
They had only traveled a third of the way when the number of falling rocks suddenly increased.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Rocks kept falling.
Screams could already be heard from behind.
It was those martial artists who had just entered the One-Line Sky. They were probably already hit by the falling rocks.
Lin Xuan and the others arrived at the halfway point of One-Line Sky.
The falling rocks above changed again.
A large number of rocks were actually mixed with some metal rocks!
Seeing that the lightning ball did not shatter it, Xiang Tianxiu immediately cried out and hurriedly dodged.
Boom!
The metal rock smashed into the ground, creating a huge pit.
If not for him dodging in time, he would have been turned into meat paste.
Moreover, because the impact of the falling metal was too great, the ground had already become bumpy.
This made everyone’s speed decrease greatly.
The speed of the people in the first group slowed down, and so did the people behind.
Lin Xuan even heard Silver Fox curse from behind.
“Damn, how am I supposed to get there?!”
Lin Xuan and the others continued forward and crossed two-thirds of the distance.
At this point, falling rocks went through another change.
The ordinary rocks no longer feel and they were all replaced by metal rocks.
There were also various elemental rocks mixed in the metal rocks.
Lightning Falling Stone, Poison Falling Stone, Flame Falling Stone, Frost Falling Stone!
These falling rocks would cause a large area of the ground to change.
As long as one tried to pass through, they would be injured.
If they circled around, they would waste more time and might be hit by more rocks.
This once again increased the difficulty of passing through.
