626: Entering the cave, I choose Fufeng

"I am Wei Heng of Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. Since you are at Dragon Transformation Realm Peak, I will assess you in this second trial! You only need to endure ten moves against me to pass."

Wei Heng spoke with an indifferent expression.

"What a pity..."

The other disciples of Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven all felt a pang of regret.

If this person were to spar with them, he would have a good chance of entering Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven.

For such a promising talent, they wouldn't be too harsh, just a simple test would suffice.

If they could befriend him early, when he soared in the future, they might even be able to leverage that connection.

But with Wei Heng making a move, it was a different story.

Wei Heng had a Senior Brother in Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven behind him, who was at the Divine Court Realm and had some conflict with Huang Quanxiao.

Thus, Wei Heng would certainly not easily allow someone brought by Huang Quanxiao to enter Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven.

Xie Weilou smiled faintly and said, "Senior Brother, please!"

Wei Heng's eyes sharpened, and he immediately conjured a long saber. All his power erupted, and he instantly charged at Xie Weilou with the saber.

Still thinking of lasting ten moves?

He wouldn't even give him a chance for one move; he had to quickly deal with this person!

"..."

Xie Weilou's figure flickered, suddenly appearing beside Wei Heng. He grabbed Wei Heng's left shoulder, raised his knee, and violently struck his chest.

Bang!

A booming sound echoed, and Wei Heng's chest caved in.

His body flew backward like a cannonball, crashing into a stone wall, shattering it directly. Blood spurted from his mouth and nose; he was defeated in one move!

"So fast!"

"Such powerful strength."

"He actually defeated Senior Brother Wei in one move."

"..."

Those around him stared at Xie Weilou with shocked expressions.

Xie Weilou's speed just now was too fast; they couldn't even catch a trace of an afterimage.

This was probably not an ordinary Dragon Transformation Realm Peak!

Xie Weilou smiled as he looked at Wei Heng: "Senior Brother, I accept your concession!"

"..."

Wei Heng stared intently at Xie Weilou, subconsciously wanting to continue fighting, but he couldn't muster any strength.

Xie Weilou asked, "Did I pass this second trial?"

A female disciple at Dragon Transformation Realm Peak softly said, "Of course you passed. Now Junior Brother Xie only needs to go into the light portal, and there will be a third assessment."

Defeating Wei Heng in one move, who would dare say he didn't pass?

No one stood out to accuse Xie Weilou of injuring someone; it was a fight, not a game.

Even if they wanted to, the person behind him was Huang Quanxiao, a Divine Court powerhouse, whom ordinary people couldn't afford to provoke.

Wei Heng had a Divine Court Realm prodigy behind him, which was why he dared to be ruthless. As for them, they had no grudge with Huang Quanxiao, so they naturally wouldn't offend her wantonly.

"Thank you."

Xie Weilou smiled indifferently and flew towards the light portal.

Buzz!

The moment he entered the light portal, a mysterious force swept over, pulling him directly in front of a massive sea of fire.

"The third trial primarily assesses temperament and perseverance. You only need to cross this sea of fire to pass."

An old voice entered Xie Weilou's ears.

"..."

Xie Weilou glanced forward and sensed a force of formations; this was an illusion!

Without hesitation, he walked straight ahead.

As soon as his foot stepped into the sea of fire, a terrifying incinerating force swept over, as if to burn him to ashes.

His body and soul felt a stinging sensation.

An ordinary cultivator stepping into this trial, upon sensing the incinerating force, would instinctively stop, or even not dare to take that step.

But to Xie Weilou, everything before him was an illusion. He didn't hesitate at all and continued to walk forward.

When he took three steps, the sea of fire disappeared.

"Passed!"

The old voice sounded again.

Xie Weilou was moved by a force.

When he reappeared.

He had already arrived at the peak of a mountain, with an even larger plaza beneath his feet.

All around were clouds and mountains, illuminated by purple light, with mist rising, immortal cranes dancing, and hundreds of birds singing.

In the distance, there were countless large mountains, and on some of these mountains, there were many mysterious and ancient buildings.

This was Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven, located within a vast secret realm, like a fairyland on earth.

Whoosh!

Just then, a white-haired Elder at Dongxuan Realm Mid-stage arrived on a purple flying carpet.

He looked at Xie Weilou, waved his hand, and a jade slip flew towards Xie Weilou.

He smiled faintly and said, "Young man, congratulations on entering Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. This contains basic information about Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven has a total of thirty-six peaks. Take a look and decide which peak you wish to go to."

Xie Weilou took the jade slip, swept his divine sense over it, and immediately understood some things about Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven. Among them, there was a peak called Talismans Peak, which piqued his interest.

"Have you decided which peak to choose? If you haven't, this old man can recommend some to you."

The white-haired Elder said with a smile.

Xie Weilou pondered, "I choose Talismans Peak!"

"Talismans Peak?"

The white-haired Elder's expression froze. He mused, "Young man, you must think carefully. Talismans Peak is the lowest-ranked among the thirty-six peaks, with very few resources and only a handful of disciples. You are already at Dragon Transformation Realm Peak, with limitless prospects. Going to Talismans Peak might waste your talent!"

Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven, thirty-six peaks, each with its own specialty.

Talismans Peak, on the other hand, taught the Dao of Talismans, but the path of talismans was extremely demanding of talent. Three hundred years ago, Talismans Peak had already declined.

Now, Talismans Peak had even fewer disciples and was extremely dilapidated.

Xie Weilou said, "To be honest, this disciple also cultivates the Dao of Talismans. My current talisman cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and I urgently need to accumulate knowledge and study."

A bottom-ranked peak, very few resources, and only a handful of disciples? This would be quiet, which would be conducive to his secluded cultivation.

After listening, the white-haired Elder showed a look of realization: "So that's it. In that case, this old man will not persuade you further, as choosing which peak to go to is your freedom."

He took out a Talismans Peak token and said, "What is your name?"

"Xie Weilou!"

Xie Weilou stated directly.

The white-haired Elder waved his sleeve, and Xie Weilou's name appeared on the token. He gently waved his hand, and the token flew towards Xie Weilou: "This is the Talismans Peak token, which will allow you to move freely within Talismans Peak and also enter Lingyuan Grotto-Heaven."

"Thank you, Elder."

Xie Weilou took the token.

"Come up! This old man will take you to Talismans Peak."

The white-haired Elder said.

Xie Weilou flew onto the flying carpet.

Whoosh!

The flying carpet shot forward. After traveling several tens of miles, an even larger mountain appeared in front.

The mountain was formed by thirty-six peaks, with waterfalls cascading down, countless palaces and buildings standing on the mountain, and ancient plazas embedded halfway up the mountain.

In the sky, there were hundreds of floating islands, all adorned with exquisite pavilions.

The white-haired Elder controlled the flying carpet to one of the peaks.

Not long after.

The two arrived on a main road of Talismans Peak. The white-haired Elder mused, "Talismans Peak has been reached. Go find the Peak Master of Talismans Peak!"

After speaking, he controlled the flying carpet and departed...
