Chapter 68
He was about to find out what was going on when the next level almost made Xuanyuan Zhicheng fall down. This was a place worse than hell.
What the hell, the third level is so difficult! It will be even worse when you come back! Even if you give me a year, I may not be able to pass it!
"My...my god..."
Xuanyuan Zhicheng wished he could find a place to bury himself in it. What are these? Are they for people to play with? Who invented this level? Come out and I promise not to beat you to death!
——The flying knife of life and death
Just above where Xuanyuan Zhicheng was, there were densely packed sharp blades the size of stalactites arranged directly above.
"Disciple, this level will be doubled according to the number of drops. Remember, if you can pass this level, then the next level will not be that difficult for you."
In other words, the hardest level is not at the end, but here?
Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Zhicheng's face darkened. It was indeed hell. He didn't follow the routine. I could tell it with just my eyes. So many knives had to prick me like a hedgehog.
Without giving Xuanyuan Zhicheng any chance to think or hesitate, the mechanism was triggered directly, and two knives fell instantly above Xuanyuan Zhicheng. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Zhicheng was agile and managed to escape. The two knives were more than enough for him.
Yes, even easily.
Then came four, eight, and sixteen!
"The knives here are like rain! There were two knives just now. If you multiply the original number by two, you will get four, then eight, and then multiply by... There is no time to think so much! Escape
ah!"
Thirty-two, sixty-four...
I managed to escape these by luck, but if there were more, I would have no chance of escaping! This ghost level is really deadly.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng gradually felt tired, and then he realized something was wrong.
I made a mistake. Just now Master said it was doubled on the original basis, but that's not how it happened. 2 turned into 4 is correct, but just now I didn't think carefully about the seriousness of the matter.
The eighth power of 2 is 256, the tenth power of 2 is 1024, and the thirteenth power of 2 is 8192!
In other words, it will become 8192 dollars later! And on the premise of not using elements, how can I avoid this? Unless I can fly!
It's over, it's over, it's really over now! I've fallen here. Even if you give me a pair of wings, I can't escape these eight thousand knives!
Master, are you so heartless to leave your disciple alone?
No, now is not the time to be depressed. The more troubled you are, the easier it is to be defeated. Instead of complaining here, it is better to think of corresponding solutions.
Since Master is willing to bring me here, it also means that he is confident enough in me and cannot bring me here to die in vain.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng thought about it carefully and seemed to realize something.
Wait, there is a rule. All the knives will not drop at the same time. There is also a time difference. Moreover, four knives will appear immediately after two are dropped. Instead, there is a cooling time. The more knives you have, the longer you wait.
The longer it takes.
They won't all be concentrated on my side, and they may come from other places. Even so, it still can't change the fact that 8192 knives fell!
What should I do? If I continue like this, I will die sooner or later, before the 13th time comes.
Yes, I remembered that there was a pillar of fire in the second level! If possible, take it down and use it as a shield to resist walking away. Then I will be fine, no matter how many knives fall out, I won’t be afraid.
It's just... he's in the air, and I can't pull it out. What's the best and quickest way to do it?
I have no choice but to turn back. This doesn't mean I'm giving up. This doesn't count as cheating, right?
Xuanyuan Zhicheng had no choice but to turn back all the way and came to the Flame Pillar in the second level. He locked his eyes on it without flinching.
It's just this one. It's about the same thickness. If you pull it off and lift it above your head to walk, it'll be fine.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng jumped up and grabbed the pillar itself, but it was still a certain distance from the ground. This was almost equivalent to hanging on it. How should he pull out such a big and long thing in such an environment that was off the ground?
There is no other way. Let’s try to pull it out first. We don’t have much time to think about it!
It's just... if I pull it out, how will I go back soon? Now is not the time to worry about this. I can't even pass the third level, let alone later. If the flame appears again, I can only connect the second level to the first level.
Let’s rush together and never stop!
Xuanyuan Zhicheng tried to pull it down, but his face became stiff due to some difficulty.
Come down quickly, even a part of it!
Speaking of which, this pillar is really a little heavy and a bit laborious.
Having said that, do you think my hard training during this period was in vain? I will make reasonable use of everything Master taught me!
I can even withstand the power of a waterfall and still be afraid of you? That would be even more uncomfortable than being filled with lead! Compared with this, it is just a small thing to move.
"I won't give up hope!"
Xuanyuan Zhicheng roared to the sky. Although his face turned red, he still did not give up his determination to move the pillar down.
After his efforts, the pillar was finally successfully taken down by Xuanyuan Zhicheng. However, it would be very laborious to lift the entire pillar, but it was nothing compared to surviving the trial.
He placed the pillar against his body and raised it above his head to form a shield. Naturally, the arm could not be exposed and could only be raised with the palm of his hand facing up.
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Zhicheng is very thin, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate him.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng did not dare to waste a second, holding up the pillar and passing through the dense rain of knives. The countless knives were ruthlessly inserted into the pillar that Xuanyuan Zhicheng raised, and it suddenly became a sieve.
If it were not for the contribution of this pillar, I am afraid that the person who would be pierced into a hedgehog would be me, and you can imagine the consequences.
He used his fastest speed to pass the torturous third level, and then came the fourth level of the cliff of life and death.
Looking at the distance of ten meters, Xuanyuan Zhicheng's heart felt as heavy as being hit hard.
If you want to reach the other side, you must cross a cliff ten meters away, and under this cliff is full of ruthless magma water. If you accidentally fall, it will be burned to ashes.
This requires the opponent to have strong jumping ability, not to mention the distance of 10 meters. Although we element controllers are indeed a bit more powerful than ordinary people, 5 meters is still okay, but 10 meters is too...
I'm not a frog. I can't jump such a long distance. Such a distance would be fatal!
Even if you want to give up midway, it's too late. Going back is dangerous, and not going back is even more dangerous.
If you have no choice, try relay jumping. If this is the case, you should be able to pass.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng had no choice but to retreat a certain distance, sprint forward with all his strength, and jump towards the cliff on the other side.
At that moment, time seemed to have stopped, and the whole world was playing back in slow motion. He was like a flexible dolphin in the sea, leaping along with the melody, and everyone was fascinated by it!
Finally, Xuanyuan Zhicheng landed perfectly, without any sign of instability;
I wasn't that nervous at first, but after passing it, I became more nervous. I even doubted for a while whether what I just said was true.
I did it, I really did it! This is something I never dared to imagine in my dreams. I didn’t expect that I actually...
The special training that Master taught me during this period is really effective! It made me become so much stronger in a short period of time.
I have never jumped such a long distance. This is really unbelievable. Only you can't think of it. No one can do it.
Having said that, what kind of devil training is next? Is there anything worse than the third level? Master said that as long as I pass the third level, there will be nothing difficult, so what will be waiting for me next?
——Escape from death
What came into view were a dozen huge hammers weighing hundreds of kilograms. They had time to deduce the same as the pendulum, but this time was slower than the first level, and it trended up and down.
The huge and heavy hammer hit the ground hard, and any living creature that entered would be beaten to pieces by his push at any time.
Just thinking about it makes me feel terrible. If it were smashed, it would be like throwing a pancake.
This level is a little similar to the first level. If it swings left and right, it's easier to hide, but if it's up and down...
First of all, this thing is very big. This hammer must be at least two meters big! The moment it falls is estimated to be 2.5 seconds. I have to duck in the moment it hits me.
Although the subsequent sequence is basically to smash down odd numbers, then even numbers up, then down even numbers after odd numbers, it is not difficult to pass the level according to this rule.
Okay, it's the fifth level. You have to hurry up and rush forward as soon as the first hammer comes up.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng found the right opportunity and prepared to sprint. The first hammer was gradually raising its head. I don't know if it was intentional. It knew that there was a living person coming in, so it deliberately drove very slowly until Xuanyuan Zhicheng ran into his sight.
Smash it to the ground!
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Zhicheng reacted quickly enough and dodged, otherwise he would have turned into a piece of powder, and the giant hammer would have smashed into nothing.
Phew, this one has been dodged, so you have to hurry up and get to the second one, because it just hit down, which means that this one is open, but it will soon fall down like the first one!
Xuanyuan Zhicheng ran away like he was desperately trying to survive. This giant hammer that was constantly beating was like a sewing machine specially used to mend clothes. It was weaving clothes diligently, but the difference was that this thing could kill people!
What a risk...I missed the second one.
It almost hit me on the head. I had no time to stop or hesitate when faced with this thing.
He ran as fast as he could, fighting the King of Hell, but this hammer, as fierce as a knife, would not let him go so easily.
The sound coming from his ears was like a time bomb, like the Jingmu Hall being shot up, which made people feel frightened! And the sinking behind him was like a life-threatening impermanence that could kill him at any time.
Are you trying to turn me into a living glutinous rice cake? Although the food is quite delicious, I don’t want to be the one being eaten!
There are a few more, hold on and finish the rest. After passing this level, you can take a short rest. I have spent too much energy in the front and I feel a little tired. Phew...
I have never felt so tired, and I have never been so tired fighting against dragons. But if this can be considered tired, then how can I duel with Andreas?
