403: test

The words of the Wan Gu Sect Leader were resounding, as if containing some kind of power, falling upon the field like a thunderous sound, unchangeable.

As his words spread, Yao Wu's identity and subsequent arrangements were finally confirmed.

To Yao Wu's surprise, she would actually be learning from the Sect Head. Given his status, it was a good thing for him to teach her.

But there were clearly other calculations behind this, only now she had no room for rebuttal.

And what was the trial of Lieyang Mountain?

Yao Wu didn't know, and now she could only take things one step at a time.

"Ling An, take her back. When she's ready to challenge the mountain, arrange for her to enter Lieyang Mountain," the Wan Gu Sect Leader said calmly.

Ling An Zhenren cupped his hands and transformed into a streak of light, disappearing from the spot.

On Ling An Mountain, Ling An Zhenren brought Yao Wu to that large mansion.

Inside the mansion, after seeing her Husband and daughter, the tension in Yao Wu's heart finally eased.

"Mother, how was it?"

After Ling An Zhenren brought the person back, he disappeared.

So as soon as she returned, Zhou Shi Xin eagerly asked.

She had heard about the Gu casting from her Father earlier, so she was very worried about her Mother.

Now seeing her Mother safe and sound, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

After Yao Wu sat down, she told the two of them what had just happened.

After listening, Zhou Luo asked, "What is the trial of Lieyang Mountain?"

According to the other party, if the trial was not passed, then Yao Wu would lose everything.

This was clearly unreasonable.

Because for her, completing the trial at the Qi Refining Realm would probably be very difficult.

Could it be that this was the plan of the Wan Gu Sect?

Wanting to use this to rightfully claim the things of True Person Lieyang?

But which faction would get these things?

Zhou Luo felt that the matter was not as simple as he imagined.

Yao Wu shook her head: "Ling An Zhenren didn't tell me these things. He said I would know when the time came."

Zhou Luo nodded slightly: "Let's rest first."

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and Ling An Mountain was silent.

After much thought, Zhou Luo still called for Xuan Qing.

"The trial of Lieyang Mountain?"

Xuan Qing showed a hint of surprise after hearing the other party's words.

Clearly, he had not expected things to develop to this point.

"Zhou Fellow Daoist, it seems your wife is in danger," Xuan Qing said earnestly.

The mountain lord's trial is a tradition of the Wan Gu Sect that has remained unchanged for ten thousand Nian.

However, this trial is obviously aimed at the mountain lord, at Golden Core True Persons.

But how could a small Qi Refining Realm like Yao Wu compare to a Golden Core True Person?

If the trial was forced, then only death awaited her.

"The Wan Gu Sect shouldn't be so ruthless," Zhou Luo said with a frown.

If the other party didn't want Yao Wu to inherit the things of the True Person Lieyang lineage, why would they bring them here from so far away?

Xuan Qing said in a deep voice: "Since True Person Lieyang died, Lieyang Mountain has been sealed. It is likely that the Sect Head wants you to break the Restrictions and reach the summit."

He also didn't know how the Sect Head had arranged things.

In his opinion, how could a Qi Training cultivator possibly reach the summit of Lieyang Mountain?

After hearing these words, Zhou Luo's face became increasingly gloomy. He suddenly asked: "Then can I ascend to the summit with her?"

If there were restrictive formations on that Lieyang Mountain, then as an Array Revered Master, he might be able to lend a hand.

Hearing this, Xuan Qing shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either. This matter still needs to be discussed with Revered Master."

Zhou Luo said with a solemn face: "Then please trouble Xuan Qing Daoist Friend to ask for me. After all, my wife is still pregnant now, and it is not suitable for her to undergo the trial."

After speaking, he bowed to the other party with utmost sincerity.

Xuan Qing didn't say much, only leaving a sentence, "I will do my best," before leaving.

Soon, the news about Yao Wu's impending mountain ascent for the trial gradually spread throughout the Inner Sect.

Everyone had been discussing Yao Wu these past few days, thinking, could a mere Qi Training cultivator really turn the sky upside down?

It seems the Sect intends to make things difficult for her, not wanting the things of the True Person Lieyang lineage to be leaked out.

Nobody had any confidence in Yao Wu.

After all, this involved the issue of the Lieyang Mountain mountain lord, so the trial was by no means that simple.

Immediately after, another piece of news came out.

Yao Wu's Husband, that guy named Zhou Luo, was actually going to accompany his wife into Lieyang Mountain to undergo the trial together.

As soon as this news came out, the Inner Sect Disciples who had been discussing it heatedly once again erupted.

They heard that this Zhou Luo was a Foundation Establishment cultivator and also a Second-Order Alchemist, but even so, could he really pass the trial of Lieyang Mountain?

It is said that True Person Lieyang was skilled in sharp and fierce swordsmanship, and the entire Lieyang Mountain was filled with various Sword Intents. Could he, a Second-Order Alchemist, really lead a Qi Training cultivator to the summit?

Clearly, everyone did not think so.

In their opinion, Zhou Luo's joining would not change the situation at all.

No wonder the Sect agreed, because they knew that everything was already destined.

But some people secretly thought, what if, what if the other party really passed?

If she really passed, Yao Wu would not only receive guidance from the Sect Head, but after successfully establishing her foundation and becoming a Second-Order Gu Master, she would officially become the Lieyang Mountain mountain lord, with a status comparable to a Golden Core True Person.

Risk and opportunity coexist.

Five days later, twilight descended, deep and vast. Lieyang Mountain faced the setting sun, the immortal mist was extremely thin, almost nonexistent. The vegetation, trees, insects, fish, birds, and beasts in the mountains were all very clear, and there was nothing special at all.

Below the mountain, there were several mountain paths leading to the peak. On the mountain paths, only occasional spiritual beasts ran past. The quiet paths showed no hint of danger.

But any Disciple of the Wan Gu Sect knew clearly that this was all an illusion.

Since True Person Lieyang passed away, Lieyang Mountain was completely sealed during his twilight years. A vast sword formation fell into it, and even a Golden Core True Person would not be able to break it easily.

Now, since Yao Wu is to inherit his Legacy, she naturally needs to challenge this sword formation.

To have a Qi Training cultivator challenge a sword formation left by a Golden Core True Person, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to reach the summit.

Even with a Foundation Establishment cultivator assisting beside her, it would be useless.

Of course, the Wan Gu Sect did not make this trial a true dead end.

The Sect Head clearly stated that the sword formation would be weakened under his power, but even so, it was still extremely dangerous.

So he also gave Yao Wu another path.

That was to give up the inheritance, return to Qingyuan City, and pretend that nothing had happened.

Yao Wu did not answer, but Zhou Luo answered for her: "The path of cultivation is originally a struggle against the sky and earth. For the Great Dao, life and death can be cast aside."

As soon as these words came out, even the Sect Head showed a look of appreciation.

Then he stopped saying anything more.

Zhou Luo and Yao Wu stood at the foot of the mountain, and other Inner Sect Disciples were watching from the side.

Although the two were destined to fail, everyone still wanted to see how this farce would end.

In the field, the Golden Core True Persons were all absent, only a group of Disciples watched them standing on the mountain path leading to the summit.

At this moment, they were like a pile of statues, silently looking at the mountain path, not moving at all.
