Chapter 116: Challenger
The moment she entered the mysterious gate, Luo Yu found herself surrounded by darkness, space began to distort, and then she felt a dizzying sensation, her body seemed to be blown up like a kite in the wind.
The body feels no weight at all, the internal organs seem to be folded seven or eight times along with the twisted space, this feeling is so uncomfortable that it makes people want to vomit.
It was unclear how much time had passed, perhaps a century or just an instant. Luoyu felt her head spinning and heavily hit the hard ground. She stretched out her hand to touch it, feeling icy coldness that pierced through her bones.
Raising her eyes, the entire hundred-square-meter space was a uniform pale white, as if it had been carved out of a single block of ice.
This ancient sect must be mainly cultivating water and ice systems, otherwise why would even the ground here be so icy and bone-piercingly cold.
It's possible that the heroine Huang Luoxue's spiritual root is indeed a top-grade water spiritual root.
Luoyu struggled to her feet, rubbing her sore head, grateful that she had the Water Spirit Root inside her, or else being in this kind of environment would be unbearable.
Look up and look forward, and indeed see three large gates inlaid on the ice wall, all white, integrated with the ice wall, only a few mysterious patterns are engraved on the gate.
The gates from left to right, one higher and larger than the other, should mean that the difficulty of the trials is one gate higher than the other, shouldn't it?
Gu Xiu's simplicity should not be deceitful in these matters, Luo Yu nodded to herself, firming up her thoughts, and walked towards the large door on the right side, the tallest one.
Choose the most difficult trial, if successful, the gain will be the greatest, if failed, then possibly no bones left.
Luo Yu had already thought about these things long ago.
Currently, the highest level of physical refinement techniques that can be found in the Cultivation Realm and are suitable for men is only at the Nascent Soul stage, or perhaps the Spirit Severing stage. However, this is not something that Luo Yu and her family can find and afford. Moreover, she is just a side branch, and there are still Eldest Sister and Ninth Sister who take precedence over her. Whether the family will go all out to help her find techniques is another matter altogether. As for Tian Xuan Sect, Luo Yu lamented that she was just an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, why would the sect go to great lengths to cultivate her?
So, her greatest hope is to find a physical repair method in the Tongtian Tower. The higher the difficulty of the trial, the higher the level of the method obtained. And the highest difficulty trial may correspond to the method of transforming gods.
The ancient sect that mainly cultivates the Water and Ice Two Qi Gates, has more female cultivators than male. So, the hope of appearing a female body cultivation method is extremely great, Luo Yu's eyes started to shine brightly.
Rather than searching for the Body Refining Technique in the Cultivation Realm like finding a needle in a haystack, it's better to enter through the right gate and make a desperate attempt. If successful, not only will she obtain the subsequent Body Refining Techniques, but also change her figure as a female Han, from then on possessing a slender physique and beautiful appearance. Luo Yu began to fantasize, occasionally letting out silly giggles.
She is a girl. Also a pretty good-looking girl, how could she not care about her figure, only being forced by the space inside her body to exercise, and her figure developed in the direction of a tomboy.
She has several good friends who actually know her subtle mind and take care of her emotions.
For example, Song Ning. He never discussed the topic of body shape in front of her, but Chu Yang would sprinkle salt on her heart every time they met, enjoying it immensely, while Luo Yu put on an air of being completely unaffected, and had been pretending for so long that sometimes she herself felt like she really didn't care about the physique of tomboys.
Luoyu shook her head, shaking off the messy thoughts, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then suddenly opened her eyes, her face set in determination, her almond-shaped eyes shining brightly.
A burst of spiritual energy was unleashed and slammed heavily into the large gate.
Bang! The spiritual light collided with the gate, producing a tremendous sound. However, the gate did not open; instead, the mysterious patterns on it underwent a transformation.
The patterns swam like fish, getting faster and faster, suddenly bursting out with dazzling light, a whirlpool appeared, getting bigger and bigger, the huge suction pulled up Luo Yu.
Luoyu was pulled into the whirlpool, without any hindrance, and she followed the whirlpool instantly into the gate. The light retracted, the patterns on the door stopped moving, returned to their original position, and the entire space returned to calmness, as if nothing had happened.
It was another dizzying spin, but Luo Yu felt slightly uncomfortable, much better than his previous trip to the Mystic Gate.
Luo Yu found herself falling onto a circular battlefield, its surface gleaming white, with a diameter of at least a thousand meters. A thin layer of pale blue light enveloped the space above it, forming an enclosed space. The entire space was filled with dense spiritual energy, twice as high as that within the Qing Huang Secret Realm.
"Challenger, state your name."
A soft and cold woman's voice sounded in her ear, Luo Yu raised her head to look around, but didn't find anything.
"Challenger, state your name." The cold voice repeated once more.
Luoyu guessed that this might be a predetermined program and didn't dare to delay any longer. She bowed and replied, "Senior, I am Huang Luoyu."
"Huang Luoyu, Wu Xing Linggen, bone age 16 years old, foundation building initial stage, peak of power training period." The cold voice evaluated without any ups and downs: "Linggen talent is superior, promotion speed is satisfactory."
Ah! The 16-year-old Zhuji's initial foundation was still considered mediocre? If her current cultivation were to be transmitted back to the Tianxuan Sect, it would probably cause a stir.
In nearly a hundred years, the earliest disciple of Tianxuan Sect to build the foundation on their own is the female lead Huang Luoxue, who built the foundation at 13 years old; followed by Song Ning, who built the foundation at 14 years old; then Chu Yang, who built the foundation at 15 years old; and the fourth one can be counted as Luo Yu, who built the foundation at 16 years old.
This ranking only includes those who have built their foundation on their own and does not include disciples who have taken Foundation Establishment Pills.
If her promotion speed is considered satisfactory, then this time the cultivators who entered Tongtian Tower will have more than half of them evaluated as useless, Luo Yu muttered to herself.
Luo Yu did not expect that her speculation would actually come true. Except for the female lead and Song Ning, who were evaluated as rapid advancement, Zi Ye, Sun Da Niu, and Li Yun Cong were evaluated as slow advancement, while the rest were all evaluated as useless, striking the geniuses of various sects with a blow to their pride.
The calm and cold female voice continued without pause, "You have chosen the highest level of trial in the foundation period. You need to kill 36 batches of enemies within 30 days, with one day's rest after each battle. You can also choose not to rest, just shout 'start' to begin. There is one chance to revive during the trial, but if you die twice, it will be permanent death. If you fail the trial, you will be kicked out of Tongtian Tower and cannot enter again for 100 years. If you succeed in the trial, you can choose a cultivation method from the Scripture Pavilion."
"Excuse me, senior, is there a female body refinement method in the Scripture Pavilion?" Luo Yu asked anxiously, her palms starting to sweat.
