21: BUFF is stacked【Please read more】

Screams rose and fell.

The faces of the examiners were pale, some even cried from fright.

Even more so, some had wet their pants.

Looking at these few examiners, Han Li and the other examiners exchanged glances.

This situation… was truly unbelievable.

Was it really that scary?

Meanwhile, the Qingyuan Sect Disciples on the other side looked calm, with some even showing a hint of a smile on their faces.

For those who failed the trial, a few Qingyuan Sect Disciples stepped forward to help them to the side to rest.

Han Li watched the failed youths, their legs trembling, their eyes revealing unconcealed terror.

It was as if they had walked through the gates of Hell.

“This Heart-Nature assessment truly has a lot going on…”

Han Li murmured to himself.

Those who passed would be rewarded with a Marrow Cleansing Pill, but how could such a Marrow Cleansing Pill be so easily obtained?

From the outside, it looked unremarkable, but only by going deep within could one realize its terror.

“Not enough courage…”

At this moment, theFat Man sighed from the side.

Han Li glanced at him.

TheFat Man’s talent was the highest, a top-grade seven-star talent, and his background was also extraordinary. From his words, he might know some inside information.

“You know about the changes within?”

Han Li asked in a low voice.

TheFat Man turned his head and looked at him, smiling slightly: “This stage is about courage. Without enough courage, you can’t pass this stage.”

“Courage…”

Han Li frowned slightly.

“You’ll know once you’re in there.”

TheFat Man chuckled, revealing a hint of mystery.

Han Li did not ask further, shifting his gaze to continue watching the examiners who were stepping on the two-foot-wide white line within the Formation.

In a few seconds, half of them were eliminated.

The remaining few swayed precariously, extremely cautious, as if falling off the white line meant plunging into an abyss.

Time passed, and soon, only one person remained from the first batch of examiners.

At this moment, this young examiner had already walked halfway.

His face was pale, and his body trembled.

He advanced cautiously.

“Ah!”

Suddenly, the youth’s foot slipped, and he fell off the white line.

His face was ashen, and sweat poured down his forehead.

Ultimately, all examiners in the first batch failed.

The Qingyuan Sect Disciples stepped forward to help him to the side, and then the second batch of examiners stepped up.

Having observed, this batch of youths had also prepared themselves thoroughly.

Each of them looked solemn, and the moment they stepped into the Formation, a burst of light rose.

Han Li continued to watch. This second batch of youths, like the first, also had very grim expressions.

It was as if they had seen something incredibly unbelievable.

They advanced cautiously within the white line.

The situation was slightly better than the first batch.

At least no one failed at the very beginning.

But it was only slightly better.

After taking a few steps, the examiners started to fail one by one.

The situation was consistent; everyone’s face was ashen, and their calves trembled.

Han Li continued to watch, carefully observing the changes in their expressions.

Nervousness, solemnity, fear… Their steps were very slow; sometimes, it took a while to take a small, difficult step forward.

As time passed, the second batch of examiners successively failed.

In the end, only one person succeeded.

But even after passing, his face was very pale, showing a lingering sense of fear.

Out of eighteen people in two batches, only one managed to pass.

One can imagine how abnormal the difficulty coefficient of this assessment was… Batches of people were assessed one after another.

ninety-nine percent of them failed.

Even with mental preparation, once they were in, everyone’s face turned pale.

Out of nine batches of examiners, totaling over eighty people, only three managed to pass.

Among the two youths with top-grade talents earlier, only the white-clothed youth passed, while the young girl failed.

This stage had nothing to do with talent.

It was about one’s Heart-Nature and courage!

Han Li had simulated many scenarios in his mind, but it was still different from the actual assessment.

Only by experiencing it could one truly understand.

Simulation could only be simulation; the real situation was a different matter… Batches of examiners came out one after another.

Soon, it was Han Li and his final batch of examiners.

There were only eight people.

And before, only three had been able to pass.

Everyone else’s expressions were very solemn, but theFat Man beside him had a slight smile.

It seemed he was already confident.

Han Li glanced at him, took a deep breath, calmed the ripples in his heart, and returned to his normal state.

Immediately, the eight of them stepped into the Formation before them simultaneously.

As he stepped onto the white line within the Formation, the surrounding environment suddenly changed dramatically.

The next second, Han Li found himself on an extremely narrow path.

Two steps wide.

On both sides of the narrow path were abysses of ten thousand feet, filled with black mist, as if devouring everything.

The narrow path was straight, about six zhang long.

There was no retreat behind him; he could only advance along the narrow path.

At this moment, Han Li understood why the others’ faces were so pale.

One wrong step here meant being shattered to pieces.

Although he knew this was an illusion created by a Formation, this illusion was too real.

A six-zhang long narrow path didn't seem far, but in reality, being in it, one realized its difficulty.

Han Li steadied the turmoil in his heart and took a step.

A gentle breeze blew from both sides.

At this time, if his center of gravity shifted even slightly, he might be done for.

But Han Li wasn’t flustered; he steadily took the second step.

The first step of Divine Travel Eight Desolations was about one word: stability.

Still as a virgin, swift as a rabbit!

No matter the wind from east, south, west, or north, I remain unmoving.

He could transform into a swimming Dragon, or remain still as a mountain!

This was the Foundation of Divine Travel Eight Desolations.

Now, having Cultivated to Major Achievement, his control over his own body had reached a pinnacle.

As he took the second step, the blowing wind seemed to intensify slightly.

His clothes flapped, the wind was very real, and he couldn't feel at all that he was in an illusion.

“The difficulty increases with every step forward; no wonder so many people fail.”

Han Li’s thoughts flashed through his mind, and at the same time, he relaxed his mind, maintaining a sense of inner peace.

As he took the third step, the wind force increased again.

On the narrow path, the blowing wind was an external force, capable of making him fall at any moment.

Han Li remained as steady as an old dog, proceeding cautiously.

Although the wind intensified, it was only a lateral influence.

He continued to advance.

A thunderclap suddenly resounded in the sky.

Han Li’s figure trembled slightly.

He was walking along perfectly, and then suddenly a thunderclap.

If it weren't for the solid Foundation laid by Divine Travel Eight Desolations, he might have fallen.

The difficulty coefficient increased… He advanced three zhang.

Thunder and wind.

Han Li also felt a bit of mental pressure.

However, relying on the solid Foundation of Divine Travel Eight Desolations, he remained stable.

He continued to advance.

Suddenly, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.

“Damn it, this developer is really a dog…”

Feeling the light drizzle from the sky, Han Li’s heart twitched.

Rainfall, coupled with the wind, and occasional thunder, instantly multiplied the difficulty coefficient several times over.

However, he only cursed inwardly and Han Li continued to move forward.

At four zhang, the drizzle turned directly into a torrential downpour.

Moreover, mist began to appear ahead.

It instantly escalated from a difficult level to a Hell-level difficulty.

Visual interference and various external factors came one after another.

Thunder rumbled, wind howled, heavy rain poured, and mist obstructed.

All negative buffs were fully stacked on him.

It went off the charts.

At this point, a slight misstep would result in falling off a ten-thousand-foot cliff.

Everything felt extremely real; you simply couldn't imagine it was fake.

The rain fell, soaking his clothes.

The narrow path beneath his feet also seemed a bit muddier.

Taking a few breaths, Han Li continued to move forward.

Five zhang.

The mist grew thicker.

You couldn't see what was ahead, but you could see the bottomless abysses on both sides.

Step by step, Han Li took his final step and reached the opposite bank.

And in that instant, all illusions vanished without a trace.

He successfully passed the trial.

His soaked clothes were dry again; everything that had just happened was an illusion created by the Formation.

The thunder, heavy rain, and mist disappeared completely.

“Passed!”

The middle-aged man from Qingyuan Sect looked at Han Li, nodded, and smiled.

Han Li’s speed was considered fast.

Among the few who passed, he was the fastest, completing the trial perfectly in just a few minutes.

Although he looked pale, he wasn’t trembling, which was very good.

A few Qingyuan Sect Disciples stepped forward, but Han Li waved them off and then came before the few who had passed.

“You’re good.”

One of the white-clothed youths spoke.

Han Li smiled in response and nodded.

Then, he turned his gaze to the other Formations.

In the last batch, he was the first to pass.

After one or two minutes, theFat Man also successfully passed.

Seeing Han Li standing to the side, theFat Man’s eyes showed surprise.

“Amazing, even faster than me.”

TheFat Man came over, looked at Han Li, and gave a slight thumbs-up.

“It’s alright.” Han Li nodded.

At this moment, the remaining examiners successively failed.

The strongest one advanced five zhang but ultimately declared failure.

Having gone through the assessment, Han Li didn’t have any disdain.

With all negative buffs stacked to the max, the difficulty coefficient was indeed a bit too high.

If he hadn’t Cultivated Divine Travel Eight Desolations, he would definitely have been finished too.
