Chapter 24: Passing the Test

  The flame talisman exploded on its own before it even touched the water ball, and the surging flames shattered all six water balls. Although they didn't completely disappear, they no longer posed a threat either. Water can extinguish fire, this principle is naturally understood, so he wouldn't let the flame talismans stick to the water balls.

  The shattered water ball turned into countless small water droplets, covering the sky and sweeping towards Yuantian like a tidal wave.

  "Rustle rustle... Rustle rustle." This time, it was really unavoidable. I was directly drenched from head to toe by the dense raindrops.

  It's good that I wore this waterproof black long shirt, especially the hood is great, can keep me looking good at all times.

  The waterproof performance of this suit is really good, not only does it not leak water, but also does not absorb water. The water droplets sprinkled on it all slide down to the ground, without sticking to the body at all.

  "Hong" Yuan Tian settled the pursuing water ball and immediately counterattacked with a flame talisman.

  The two-layered blue robe's agency head reacted not a bit slow, and before the flame symbol even hit, he began to dodge to one side. By the time the spirit symbol exploded, he had already dodged a distance away. The heat wave's power was still insufficient to harm him.

  "Puff! Puff! Puff!" Yuantian ran while throwing out three flame talismans. However, the Blue Robe Mechanism Master dodged and also released three water balls, extinguishing all the flames that had been ignited.

  The second layer's blue-robed mechanism boss is much smarter than the first layer's great sword-wielding boss who only knows how to use brute force. Not only does it know how to dodge, but it will also use water balls to counterattack flames.

  The Flame Emblem's power is also limited, and at this rate, I really can't outlast the Blue Robe Organization Chief.

  This mechanism is not large in size and is not easy to hit. It just so happens that the moving speed is fast, and it will also release water balls to offset the fire talisman, which is simply the nemesis of Yuantian.

  "Hoo-hoo-hoo"! Dressed in black, Yuan Tian flashed out with lightning speed, three flame talismans flying in a triangular formation towards the blue-robed Mechanism Master.

  "Puff puff puff" without any suspense, three water balls quickly counterattacked and extinguished all the incoming fireballs.

  A burst of swift movement, a wrist-thick vine suddenly appeared under the feet of the Blue Robe Mechanism Master and rapidly entwined upwards. The moving Blue Robe Mechanism Master was caught off guard, his legs were tied up, and his body involuntarily leaned forward.

  "Hehehe...". Taking advantage of his opponent's inability to move, Yuantian swiftly released three Flame Talismans.

  This blue-robed man is really something, although his legs were entangled, he still managed to steady himself and not fall. Amidst the chaos, he even counterattacked.

  A deafening roar, a wave of flames with overwhelming power. It was the special flame talisman made from mid-grade spirit paper that had burst open. Three flame talismans crammed onto one piece of spirit paper, and its power was indeed extraordinary.

  Yuan Tian desperately retreated backwards, exerting his speed to the limit. He arrived at a relatively safe corner and rolled in with a thud.

  The flames gradually subsided, and when I looked again at the blue-robed official, there was still a blue robe, but it was just an empty shell of an official.

  Apart from the power of the Flame Talisman, everything was within Yuan Tian's calculations. Earlier, he had thrown out three Flame Talismans as a test, then used Entangling Talismans to bind Blue Robe's legs, and threw out another three to disrupt him.

  Just as the Blue Robe Organ Master was about to counterattack with a water ball, the vines suddenly wrapped around his wrist and pulled down. The three water balls that were originally going to hit their mark all smashed into the ground instead.

  At this moment, the specially-made flame talisman flew over and exploded in front of the Blue Robe Sect Master.

  "It was a close call... I dare not drink the wine token again, this is simply playing with one's life. However, I must thank the special flame token this time, otherwise it would be difficult to defeat the Blue Robe Organ Master."

  A white jade table slowly rose from the ground. On it was placed a beautiful celadon small porcelain vase, and a jade slip emitting a milky white glow.

  Seeing these two exquisite things, Yuan Tian took three steps forward and made two steps closer, picked them up and examined them carefully.

  As soon as the porcelain bottle was opened, a faint medicinal fragrance wafted out. This smell was very familiar, it was exactly the same as the two Yuan Dan pills that had been given before. This time, there was an entire bottle of them, so he quickly took one and tossed it into his mouth.

  Yuán Tiān this guy is really anxious, doesn't even take a look at what's recorded on the Jade Scroll first. He just sits down to adjust his breath and starts absorbing the medicinal power. A whole bottle of Pé Yuán Dān ah, previously one pill was enough to raise his cultivation from fourth layer Qi Refining to fifth layer. The second pill didn't manage to bring him to sixth layer, but it did bring him to mid-fifth layer.

  This is the third one this time, I don't know if I can break through to the sixth layer of Qi refining.

  The absorption of the medicine's power is a bit slow, after all, it's not spiritual food or spiritual vegetables. The medicine needs a continuous metabolic time to absorb its power and eliminate impurities. Because I had taken two pills before, this one naturally absorbed more slowly. This was also because during the battle just now, I had consumed a lot of medicinal power with my constant dodging and weaving, otherwise it would have been absorbed even more slowly.

  Outside the tower, it's no longer 500 sparrows chirping, but 1,000 ducks quacking loudly.

  After the news of Yuan Tianchuang's successful breakthrough to the second layer appeared on the bulletin board, many miscellaneous disciples were completely subverted. Liu Ming had already been carried away, otherwise he would definitely be furious and faint again.

  "Yuan Tian Shixiong he...". Xuan Yuan Shu wanted to speak but stopped, looking at Da Ge Qian Kai with inquiring eyes.

  "Junior brother is preparing to break through the third layer, this kid really has guts." Qian Kai wiped his nose with his right thumb and expressed his opinion.

  "Ah" Xuan Yuan Shu's sister was clearly intimidated by this statement, how could she not be. She didn't even dare to venture into the second layer, yet Yuan Shu actually wanted to venture into the third layer.

  "You guys think that Yuan Shixiong will become the future leader of the Outer Sect?" The little fatty, who always liked to stir up conversations, had once again brought up a new topic.

  At this moment, Liu Gong accompanied Liu Ming and left, if he heard it here, he would have to peel off his skin.

  "It's still too early to say, if he can pass the third level, then he should be the outer sect champion." A fairly good-looking female disciple frowned and expressed her opinion.

  "Haha! If he can make it past the third level, you'll have to call him Master Uncle!" A man in his thirties said with a pat on his chest.

  "Yes! I heard that the third floor's boss is a test of one's cultivation ability, and if you can defeat it, your own strength will be at the level of gathering spirit. Moreover, I heard that successfully passing the third floor will reward you with Gathering Spirit Pills." A hunchbacked male disciple spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice, his age seeming quite advanced, and indeed he knew many things.

  "I've also heard that Zhao Jiajun, the current outer sect chief, has not yet broken through to the third layer. He's planning to accumulate his strength and make a breakthrough to the Gathering Spirit stage with the help of the Gathering Spirit Pill." The talkative fatty was unwilling to show weakness, doing his best to display his extensive knowledge and being well-informed.

  "Alas!" Wang Guanshi held up the teacup in his hand, looked at the information on the bulletin board, and then turned to look at his nephew Wang Tao beside him, letting out a sigh.

  Fan Weidong put down his teacup and also took a look at the notice on the bulletin board. At this moment, he felt a bit embarrassed because Yuan Tian was recommended by him to participate in the challenge.

  Lao Fan was very happy in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud. Wang's nephew had barely passed the first level, and now Yuan Tian, whom he recommended, had made it through the second level and seemed to be heading for the third, which made Wang Jianghua's old face lose its dignity.

  "Brother Fan really has vision!" Wang Jianghua, an old hand, just let out a slight sigh and immediately adjusted his expression. Smiling, he clasped his hands together in congratulations to Fan Weidong, not showing any signs of the disappointment from earlier.

  "Come on! This kid is just lucky. He definitely won't make it past the third level, young people are too reckless!" Boss Fan was even more of an old hand at this sort of thing and hastily returned a gift to Wang.
