147: Three Tests

Everyone understood what it meant.

Yang Yi was a bit surprised.

He had thought there was no hope for this matter.

He didn't expect hope to be right before his eyes.

One Elder asked curiously.

"I wonder what trials the Three Old Ancestors have prepared for Yang Yi?"

Sect Leader Yue Sha said with a smile, "I don't know either."

"Let's go to the Forbidden Ground."

"Let's see what the Three Old Ancestors say."

Everyone nodded.

They grandly arrived at the Forbidden Ground.

As soon as they entered the Forbidden Ground, a loud voice from an Old Ancestor echoed from the sky.

"Has everyone arrived?"

"Everyone's here," Sect Leader Yue Sha replied.

The Old Ancestor was hidden in the sky, his voice carrying a hint of majesty.

"The trial begins."

"There are three trials in total."

"The first trial is desire."

As his voice fell, a yellow mist suddenly rose around everyone.

This yellow mist quickly enveloped everyone.

Sect Leader Yue Sha was the first to sense something was wrong.

She immediately warned everyone, "Be careful, the mist is poisonous."

Some covered their mouths with their hands.

Some pulled out handkerchiefs.

Some put on veils.

However, this mist was more potent than everyone imagined.

Some people, as soon as they inhaled it, began to hallucinate.

Some collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth.

Some danced wildly, ecstatic, as if they had encountered something extremely joyful.

Some felt their bodies heat up and began to unbutton their clothes.

Seeing the danger, Sect Leader Yue Sha immediately knocked out several people who were trying to remove their clothes.

Yang Yi initially covered his nose with his hand, but the poison still entered his body.

He tried to resist with his inner force, but this poisonous mist was very strange; it seemed unafraid of inner force.

In an instant, the scene before Yang Yi's eyes changed.

A group of beautiful women, dressed in thin, light gauze, slowly approached him.

Yang Yi knew this was an illusion.

He sat cross-legged, muttering, "Can't see it."

"Can't see it."

"Can't see it."

He closed his eyes, but his body still felt sensations.

A group of women surrounded him, their fair, tender arms wrapping around him like small snakes, making him itch with desire and his blood boil.

However, Yang Yi remained calm.

Knowing it was an illusion, knowing it was fake, it wouldn't cause him too much serious harm.

The illusion couldn't affect his mind, but his body still reacted as it should.

Outside the illusion, Sect Leader Yue Sha saw Yang Yi sitting cross-legged, cold sweat already beading on his forehead.

She couldn't help but frown slightly.

Looking at the other Disciples, some were already unconscious, while others were still dancing wildly.

A bitter smile rose in her heart.

This was not only a trial for Yang Yi but also for the Disciples of Luoyue Sect.

Everyone who came here was talented and strong from Luoyue Sect.

If they were all wiped out, it would be a huge disgrace.

But now, she couldn't worry about others; she could only leave it to fate.

Facing the assault of the illusion, Sect Leader Yue Sha easily escaped, not even being affected.

Like flowing water, she effortlessly passed through the poisonous mist before her and emerged from it.

Her beautiful eyes observed her surroundings.

Soon, she found where the Old Ancestor was hidden.

But the next moment, the Old Ancestor disappeared.

Looking back, she could vaguely see the people in the poisonous mist struggling, making all sorts of strange gestures.

Few people could still remain calm and sit cross-legged.

After one incense stick of time, the other Disciples came out one after another.

It wasn't that they resisted the illusion, but rather that the Old Ancestor had lost interest in them, so he threw them all out.

They fell to the ground with thuds, like sandbags, and then woke up.

They had no idea how they got out.

The moment they woke up, they looked around blankly.

Seeing that the scene before them was different from what they had just seen, they realized that everything they had encountered was an illusion.

Some were deeply ashamed.

Some were indifferent.

Some were terrified.

Yue Lingxin was also thrown out.

She was among the last group of people to be thrown out.

The earlier one was thrown out, the more it proved they did not satisfy the Old Ancestor.

The last group to be thrown out were the ones the Old Ancestor appreciated the most.

Yue Lingxin patted the dirt off her body with her hand, looking somewhat aggrievedly inside, and quietly asked Sect Leader Yue Sha, "Revered Master, Yang Yi is still inside?"

"Why isn't he out yet?"

"Will something happen to him?"

"The later he comes out, the better," Sect Leader Yue Sha replied with certainty.

Yue Lingxin's eyes lit up.

She said softly, a little proudly, "Then am I also very powerful?"

"I was also among the last to come out."

Sect Leader Yue Sha smiled and shook her head.

"Coming out late only proves that your potential is good."

"It doesn't mean you are stronger than others."

"Then Yang Yi has hope, doesn't he?"

Yue Lingxin immediately focused her gaze on the poisonous mist, feeling happy for Yang Yi.

Sect Leader Yue Sha remained silent.

Who knew what the Old Ancestor was thinking?

Just then, in a daze, a figure slowly walked out.

When everyone saw Yang Yi, they were all a little surprised.

Especially Sect Leader Yue Sha, who was even more shocked.

She had seen how the others came out; they all fell from the sky, thrown out.

But Yang Yi was able to walk out on his own.

This meant that he had completely resisted the interference of the illusion, or even broken through the illusion and walked out of it.

As for which situation it was, Sect Leader Yue Sha did not know.

After Yang Yi walked out, the mist behind him disappeared.

Yue Lingxin and a few others gathered around Yang Yi, asking him how he came out.

Yang Yi calmly said he walked out on his own.

Yue Lingxin rolled her eyes and pinched Yang Yi's arm with her hand, making him grimace in pain.

"We know you walked out."

"We want to know how you walked out of the illusion."

Yang Yi thought for a moment and said, "I broke the illusion and then walked out."

"How did you break it?" another Disciple asked, disbelievingly.

Yang Yi smiled and said nothing more.

At this moment, Sect Leader Yue Sha scolded, "Alright."

"Don't crowd around him."

"Let him rest well."

"There are even harder trials waiting for him next."

"You all should rest well too."

"Perhaps you will participate in the next trial as well."

Everyone immediately sat cross-legged, recuperating.

An hour later, the Old Ancestor's voice came from all directions.

"Good performance."

"The next trial is intelligence."

Intelligence?

Everyone was a little stunned.

How would intelligence be tested?

Would they be given a few questions?

But answering questions doesn't necessarily mean someone has high intelligence.

Perhaps that person had heard those questions before.

As everyone was thinking, forty-six small rabbits ran out of the jungle not far from them.
