Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 393 Ten Thousand Years!

"Whoohoo-"

After the human bones completely turned into wisps of red mist in the air, a gust of wind suddenly rang out in the arena.

The sound of the wind was like the howl of a vengeful ghost from the underworld, extremely mournful, sending chills down one's spine!
Simultaneously.

The dark red mist that had just turned from human bones began to swirl rapidly around the blood-red iron sword after this eerie gust of wind appeared. Each rotation was accompanied by a sinister gale and a mournful sound.

Not long after.

The dark red mist that had been swirling erratically around the blood-red iron sword suddenly began to take on a regular shape in an instant.

These dark red weapons, which were originally invisible mist, gradually transformed into substantial solids.

However, this solid is not a completely solid, but rather a state between a solid and a liquid.

These substances drifted around the blood-red iron sword, emitting a dark red glow.

"Buzz!"

A sharp blow.

In the arena, a sudden, inexplicable gust of wind blew up, and the previously unstable dark red substance seemed to explode, then quickly condensed and suddenly became substantial.

At first, it was just a dark red patch high in the sky, but in the blink of an eye, a huge vortex large enough to devour the entire arena appeared in the arena.

All of a sudden.

The pressure from all around suddenly became immense, and Xu Ran, being someone in the arena, felt it most acutely.

He could even hear his bones cracking and popping under the immense pressure, like firecrackers going off inside his body.

Moreover, the earth's rock layers beneath their feet, stained dark red by the dark red mist, were visibly disintegrating into dark red gravel.

The "rustling" sound made it feel like being in a desert.

"Such immense pressure!"

At this moment, Xu Ran once again half-squatted on the ground, his back bent, holding the silver iron sword in his hand, and stuck it into the ground that had almost turned into dark red gravel.

When the silver iron sword pierced the earth, the earth, which should have turned into quicksand, became solid again at the spot where the silver iron sword was inserted, as if some force was helping the earth!
Xu Ran muttered to himself, enduring the immense pressure, and looked up at the sky.

I saw.

At the center of what had just transformed into a massive, dark red vortex, it seemed as if something was about to emerge.

Upon closer inspection, it's unclear whether the substance that came out was originally dark red or stained by the color of the vortex, but it looked almost blood red!
As soon as that thing emerged, the silver iron sword in Xu Ran's hand began to tremble uncontrollably.

This tremor was so slight that it was imperceptible to most people.

but.

Under such circumstances, Xu Ran was highly focused, constantly observing his surroundings, fearing that something might go wrong.

and.

We can now say that we have entered the most difficult period of swordsmanship. If we can successfully get through it, then we will be victorious.

Therefore, Xu Ran dared not relax in the slightest, and even when sensing his surroundings, he dared not be negligent in the slightest.

That's why, when such a huge vortex appeared high in the sky, they didn't focus all their attention on the vortex itself, but instead observed the silver iron sword, as if something was really about to happen.

Xu Ran endured the immense pressure and gripped the silver iron sword tightly in his hand.

"Is it really not simple?"

Xu Ran had some doubts in his heart.

The way and process by which this silver iron sword appeared was extremely strange, and it was completely out of place with its original environment.

It seems that this silver-shine iron sword is completely out of place here!
Sudden.

Xu Ran's eyes lit up.

"Could it be that the way to pass the level really lies in this silver-skinned iron sword!"

This sword technique cannot be unsolvable.

Therefore, there must be something in this arena that can help you pass the levels. Xu Ran knew this when he first entered the trial.

but.

Since he entered the swordsmanship trial, he has carefully observed that this silver iron sword is completely different in style from the other broken and rusty swords!

Although there was a suspicion from the beginning, the trials came one after another, leaving no time to think about the problem carefully.

If he hadn't been completely focused just now, and the silver iron sword hadn't trembled, he might have completely forgotten about the problem.

While Xu Ran was thinking.

High in the sky.

The dark red color completely stained the sky above the arena, and what had previously appeared in the vortex was now fully revealed to everyone.

I saw.

A blood-red iron sword, hundreds of feet in size, slowly flew out from the center of the vortex, piercing through the sea of ​​clouds. The entire arena was filled with the image of the blood-red iron sword.

This iron sword, which emerged from the dark red vortex, was enormous, hundreds of feet in size, and its massive shadow completely covered the entire arena.

If it weren't for the fact that this was during a trial and the source of the energy was unknown, even the light in the arena would have been obscured by this enormous shadow!

"What a huge sword!"

Upon seeing this scene, the junior sister's eyes immediately filled with confusion.

Even though she was knowledgeable and experienced, and even though she was a genius who specialized in mental power and was clearly visible to the naked eye.

As the saying goes, different things are like different mountains.

Even though Junior Sister is a prodigy who specializes in cultivating soul power, it seems that her knowledge is still somewhat lacking!

Upon seeing this, the second senior brother quickly made a judgment.

"Whether Xu Ran can pass the swordsmanship trial depends on this one sword strike!"

Although he wasn't a skilled swordsman, he did possess basic observational skills.

To know.

He had personally witnessed the Sword Immortal, a renowned sword immortal who existed since ancient times, whose talent was unmatched.

As the saying goes.

Even if you've never seen pork, you've at least seen a pig run, right?
Moreover, in those ancient times, it wasn't just the Sword Immortal who cultivated the way of the sword; there were countless other geniuses as well.

Therefore, he was able to quickly analyze some of the more important things.

Needless to say, the eldest brother...

As someone who wields a sword, he naturally knew what was about to happen.

For a while.

The three of them stared intently at Xu Ran in the arena.

first timing.

Xu Ran noticed the strange vortex appearing high in the sky. However, he hadn't expected the sudden burst of such terrifying pressure, which caused even his fully-developed [Innate Saint Body] body to tremble, and even the bones within his flesh and blood to vibrate!

Xu Ran endured the immense pressure and looked up at the sky, where the blood-red iron sword, hundreds of feet in size, came into full view.

The enormous sword, seemingly cast from an entire mountain range, was a peerless weapon of destruction, its blade flowing with a viscous, lava-like blood-red light.

On the sword's blade, a pattern similar to the sword's markings appeared. Each crack resembled a river of imprisoned lava, meandering into dazzling veins on the dark blade.

Gradually, my gaze fell upon the end of the sword hilt, where there was an extremely round object, the size of a complete human head.

When the human bone, the size of a human head, was fully revealed, countless dark red mists instantly spread across the sky.

Suddenly, the air became heavy as lead, making it difficult to breathe, and Xu Ran's face turned purple.

He looked as if something was choking him, which momentarily clouded his judgment.

With his mind in such a state of confusion, Xu Ran imagined warhorses kneeling down with neighing, and cavalrymen's chainmail peeling off piece by piece, like beetles being crushed by an invisible giant hand.

Suddenly, the scene shifted, and Xu Ran's small body was pressed under the guillotine. A series of insults came from beside him, but he couldn't hear what they were saying. He only heard the sound of the guillotine being chopped off, and his head rolled to the ground. He saw his tender body still kneeling on the ground.

Upon seeing this, Xu Ran's mind returned to normal, and his gaze returned to the arena.

The enormous crimson iron sword that appeared high in the sky, its blade etched with sword patterns, began to flash with black light in the blink of an eye. With each flash, a crimson light appeared before Xu Ran's eyes.

It didn't seem like sword patterns, but rather killing intent solidified over millions of years.

"Look at the sword pattern!"

The junior sister, who was observing Xu Ran's trial, suddenly shouted loudly.

For a while.

The other two instantly turned their gazes to the sword patterns on the massive, blood-red iron sword that blotted out the sky.

Suddenly, liquid light gushed from the winding grooves on the crimson sword's spine, like an inverted crimson Milky Way cascading down.

The moment this liquid light, resembling a blood-red galaxy, touched the earth, streaks of black lines appeared.

From high above, these black lines resemble spiderweb-like wounds cracking open in the earth as it groans in agony, the boiling magma frozen into black crystal clusters by the chill emanating from the sword shadows before it could erupt.

of course.

The formation of the blood-red iron sword was not so simple.

The most terrifying thing was the dark red vortex that appeared on the sword's edge, as if a giant had turned the entire sea of ​​blood upside down on the sky. Each rotation of the dark red vortex produced a deafening roar.

Rumble-——
Beneath each deafening roar was a struggling skeletal phantom, writhing within the already swirling dark red vortex as if trying to escape.

Just as these skeletal phantoms were about to escape from the dark red vortex, a blood-red sword beam suddenly appeared and pierced into the center of the vortex.

Then, a sound even more terrifying than thunder came from within—a shrill cry as space itself was torn apart, a dying groan as the chains of law broke.

The instant that sound rang out, tens of thousands of crimson lightning bolts exploded simultaneously, and the skeletal phantom that appeared above the dark red vortex vanished completely, as if it had never existed.

At the same time, the enormous blood-red iron sword high in the sky solidified completely.

Its stillness is more oppressive than any movement, like a guillotine hanging over the heads of all living beings.

The bald man, who had been ignored by Xu Ran and the others for a while, appeared on the huge blood-red iron sword high in the sky.

"This is the sword intent left behind by the sword immortal before his death!"

At this moment, the bald man hung high in the sky like a god who could command others at will.

"This sword intent is negligible even for a sword immortal, but it's enough for a baby like you who is not even two years old!"

The bald man was suspended high in the air, staring disdainfully at Xu Ran on the ground.

Xu Ran at this moment.

He remained half-squatting on the ground, still tightly gripping the silver iron sword in his hand, the immense pressure pressing down on him like Mount Tai.

Even so, he still did not lower his noble head, staring intently at the bald man.

This eye contact felt as if it spanned ten thousand years.

After a while.

The bald man, who was staring at her, suddenly blinked, and a gulping sound, only he could hear, echoed in her ears.

"impossible!"

As if provoked by something, the bald man suddenly went berserk, his thick fingers pointing at Xu Ran like lightning.

"Om-"

The enormous blood-red iron sword unleashed its full pressure, converging into a single point as it hurtled towards Xu Ran.

Upon seeing this, Xu Ran's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at the silver iron sword in his hand.

"I hope you really are as I think!"

He muttered it quietly in a voice he could hear.

Just as the immense pressure emanating from the crimson iron sword was about to reach him.

I saw.

Xu Ran, who had been half-squatting on the ground, suddenly stood up as if all his oppressive aura had vanished.

With his right hand gripping the silver-light iron sword in a reverse grip, he naturally grasped the hilt and swung the silver-light iron sword in a reverse grip.

All of a sudden.

The silver iron sword, which had previously shone without any light, suddenly emitted a burst of silvery-white light.

This light, like a lamp in the darkness, directly illuminated Xu Ran's heart and gave him warmth.

"That's really true!"

Upon seeing Xu Ran's reaction, the eldest disciple suddenly sat up from his seat, his voice trembling with excitement.

Just as they guessed, the key to passing the level lay in the silver iron sword that had been nestled in Xu Ran's hand.

The silver iron sword that Xu Ran wielded formed a dazzling silver light in front of him.

Rumble-——
The moment it took shape, the crimson sonic wave unleashed by the crimson iron sword exploded directly in front of Xu Ran, and endless dark red mist immediately filled the surroundings, drifting across the arena.

but.

No matter how these dark red mists drifted, they couldn't get close to the silver-white barrier in front of Xu Ran!
Xu Ran breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene.

"I guessed right!"

He felt incredibly relaxed.

Although he felt from the very beginning that the silver iron sword in his hand was somewhat different, he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

During the final trial, Xu Ran initially considered throwing away the Silver Light Iron Sword, but upon further thought, he decided to keep it by his side.

result.

Unexpectedly, after various trials, I discovered this silver-light iron sword, which is quite extraordinary.

Even more unexpectedly, this could directly destroy the attack launched by the huge blood-red iron sword!
