Above the altar, a blue pillar of light rose, and an extremely ancient and majestic aura descended.

The inscriptions engraved around the altar gradually lit up with a blue light.

Then, a huge blue door slowly rose up from the altar in front of them and unfolded.

The intense spatial fluctuations emanating from it clearly indicate that this is the entrance to the Moon Goddess Trial.

Just then, Yue Wumian spoke to him.

"Kid, the trial has begun. You may go in!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Yun nodded.

"Thank you so much, senior!"

He bowed with his hands clasped in a gesture of respect, which was quite polite.

Yue Rushuang, who was beside him, still gave him some instructions with some lingering concern.

"Be very careful, even if you fail, don't let yourself get ruined."

For Yue Rushuang, it didn't matter whether Ye Yun passed or not, as long as he could come out alive.

After all, as long as a person is alive, there is still a chance...

Ye Yun smiled faintly and confidently grasped her hand, saying this.

"Understood. Ru Shuang, you stay outside and wait for my triumphant return!"

"Okay, I'll wait."

Yue Rushuang nodded slightly and smiled at him.

Following that, Yue Wumian's voice came.

"You brat, this trial gate won't last long. Stop talking nonsense and get in!"

He felt that if he didn't say something to remind them, these two could stay there and be all lovey-dovey for a long time.

"Ahem, I know, I know."

Ye Yun scratched his head and smiled, quickly letting go of Yue Rushuang's small hand, looking at the trial gate in front of him, and took a step out.

As soon as he entered, it was as if he had been teleported, and he disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

A few breaths later, the blue door that had been standing there gradually disappeared.

Only the inscriptions on the altar continued to glow, proving that the trial was still proceeding normally.

Thus, the Moon Goddess Trial officially began.

After Ye Yun went inside, the atmosphere around the altar outside quickly fell silent.

Yue Wumian glanced at her daughter beside her and couldn't help but shake her head.

"You little rascal, are you still angry?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Rushuang didn't even glance at him and snorted lightly.

I don't want to talk to you.

In fact, she has been like this almost every time she gets angry or throws a tantrum since she was a child.

Without a doubt, she is still angry with herself to this day.

Even Yue Wumian sighed helplessly.

"I said Ru Shuang, everyone says that a married daughter is like water that has been thrown away."

"You're not even married yet, how come you're already siding with outsiders?"

"Have you really forgotten even your father for the sake of your Daoist partner?"

Although he knew in his heart that this day would come sooner or later.

But when it actually arrived, this old father still felt a little sad.

Upon hearing this, Yue Rushuang rolled her eyes at him and said irritably.

"It's all your fault! You're being completely unreasonable!"

At first, she tried to patiently persuade the other party.

However, it turned out that no matter what they said, it was to no avail; instead, they were severely reprimanded.

So naturally, she also became a little angry.

Upon hearing her daughter's complaints, Yue Wumian sighed and spoke with a serious expression.

"Wasn't I doing that for your own good?"

But it would have been better if he hadn't said anything; his words only made Yue Rushuang angrier.

She glared at Yue Wumian and said irritably.

"For my own good, for my own good, that's all you ever say!"

"If you really care about me, you should approve of the person I chose!"

In her view, the other party treated her like a naive and clueless girl who didn't know anything.

She felt that she had been deceived by Ye Yun's sweet talk.

In fact, she had been cultivating for so many years and had gone out to train more than once or twice.

She considered herself to be relatively clear-headed.

It was a decision made after much deliberation that she was able to accept Ye Yun.

But from his own father's perspective, it was a decision he made on a whim, in a moment of impulse.

In response, Yue Wumian sighed again and said slowly.

"I don't understand."

"What's so great about that brat? Is he worth you liking him like this?"

Clearly, he still has some issues with Ye Yun.

However, after listening, Yue Rushuang glanced at him and snorted softly.

"That's true, but didn't someone shamelessly accept a gift from someone else?"

"If you really don't want to accept something from someone, then don't accept their gifts in the first place."

These words were clearly a devastating blow to Yue Wumian.

Indeed, it is precisely on this point that even Yue Wumian finds herself in a position of being indebted to others.

Yue Wumian took a deep breath and replied calmly.

"I accepted these not for myself, but for the future of the Holy Land."

For him, those ninth-grade pills were irrelevant; the only thing that mattered was the secret technique that could awaken the nine-tailed moon fox.

He had to stay no matter what; it was far too important for the Moon Wheel Holy Land!

"cut……"

Yue Rushuang curled her lip and said coldly.

"You're only with him for the sake of the Holy Land, and part of the reason I'm with him is also for the sake of the Holy Land, okay?"

"Can these things be compared?"

"What's the difference?"

"Anyway, it's different."

"..."

In the blink of an eye, Yue Wumian and his daughter Yue Rushuang started arguing about the matter.

They are probably the only ones in the entire Moon Wheel Holy Land who dare to speak to each other like this.

The atmosphere was getting increasingly tense, and the argument was getting more and more heated.

Luo Meng, who was standing nearby, had to speak up and offer some advice.

"Um... you two, please calm down."

"These kinds of things can't be solved by arguing; it's better to discuss them calmly."

That's just how she is; if it were someone else, it would probably be difficult to even persuade them.

Upon hearing this, Yue Rushuang gave a light snort and said calmly to her father.

"It's okay, you can say whatever you want, the bet has already been made."

Yue Wumian glanced at her and said dismissively.

"Let's wait until that kid passes away first, then we'll talk about it."

Even now, he doesn't really think Ye Yun can pass the Moon Goddess Trial.

As someone who experienced it back then, Yue Wumian knows better than anyone how difficult the Moon Goddess Trial is.

Even I only went to challenge after my cultivation had reached the peak of the Dao Building stage and I was fully prepared!

Even so, there were several near failures along the way.

Not to mention, Ye Yun, who was just at the Transcendent Realm, only decided to challenge him on the spur of the moment. What chance did he have of winning?

One of the reasons I agreed was to shut everyone up.

One is Jin Liuli, another is his own daughter, and the third is the opinions of the public.

Then, if anyone says he made things difficult for his son-in-law, he can at least say something in response.

You see, I gave him the opportunity, and he agreed; it's just that he didn't seize it.

At that moment, Yue Rushuang glanced at him.

"If he wants it to pass, you have to accept it."

Clearly, she was a little worried that her father might change his mind later.

Upon hearing this, Yue Wumian asked with some surprise.

"Oh? You have that much confidence in him?"

"Of course."

Yue Rushuang nodded, her tone tinged with pride.

"That Ye Yun guy always manages to create miracles."

"The most impossible things often seem to be nothing to him."

Without a doubt, this evaluation is quite high.

The content reminded Yue Wumian of Luo Meng, so she turned to look at it.

Luo Meng also showed a helpless expression in response.

However, she still managed to say something.

"Indeed, Ye Yun is very skilled in this area."

If this evaluation was given by a single person, it might be somewhat biased due to their personal feelings.

But what if everyone gives him a surprisingly consistent evaluation?

That might actually be one of their defining characteristics.

"interesting."

Yue Wumian nodded and smiled faintly as she looked at the altar in front of her.

"Let's see what kind of results that kid will achieve in the end!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out his hand again.

Strands of blue light converged in front of him to form a three-section blue projection.

Without a doubt, this is a projection of the Moon Goddess's Trial.

By calling upon the power of the formation from the outside, Ye Yun's trial progress within it can be retrieved.

At this moment, Ye Yun was in the area of ​​the first level.

Right next to it, there was another area with numbers marking how many Moonlight Beasts Ye Yun had killed.

Currently, the number is still zero, indicating that the trial has not yet officially begun.

……

At the same time, Ye Yun had just been teleported.

Once his senses returned, he found himself in a wasteland.

Not a single star could be seen in the sky, only the bright moon hanging high, illuminating the desolate wasteland below.

Compared to the outside world, the moon was so large that it gave people a sense of awe and fear.

Ye Yun lowered his head, glanced at his hands, and touched his body.

"What an amazing formation! This isn't an illusion?"

"Nonsense, this is a real world."

Nangong Jiutian spoke up, offering a leisurely reminder.

"So be careful, if you die in here, you're really dead."

This is clearly why there is a certain mortality rate in the Moon Goddess Trials.

They're going straight for the real thing, a real-world trial; if anything goes wrong, it's game over.

In comparison, the trial that Empress Tianyan gave her back then was far too gentle!

"So, has my trial truly begun?"

Ye Yun glanced around but didn't see any Moonlight Beasts.

Just then, a woman's clear, cold voice rang out from the surroundings.

"In ten breaths, the first trial will begin. Please slay enough Moonlight Beasts."

"If your Xuan Qi is depleted during this period, you can replenish it by chanting at will, up to a maximum of ten times."

After he finished speaking, silence returned to the surroundings.

And right there in the sky, from the bright moonlight, strands of blue light fell down.

Right before Ye Yun's eyes, the blue moonlight power condensed into the shapes of various mystical beasts.

Each of them exuded an extraordinary aura, and their cultivation level was clearly at the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm.

Clearly, the Moonlight Beast was determined based on his own cultivation level.

Ye Yun's eyelids twitched, and he couldn't help but gasp.

"Wait, they actually sent a mystical beast of the same level?"

In other words, to pass the first trial, you need to kill more than 10,000 mythical beasts of the same level as yourself!

For a fleeting moment, Ye Yun really wanted to curse. Was this some kind of trial for people?

Isn't that just too outrageous?!

The fact that Senior Yue Wumian was able to pass that test back then shows she really had something special.

As for myself, I wouldn't have a chance at all.

"Alright, kid, if you can't handle it, then get out of here."

Nangong Jiutian jokingly said it in his mind.

"Wait a moment, let me try it first."

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow, still somewhat wanting to try it himself.

Nangong Jiutian scoffed at this.

"Fine, I won't shed a tear until I see the coffin."

At that moment, Ye Yun unleashed all his silver blades and entered an attack stance.

And on the wasteland centered on him, one after another moonlight beasts also materialized.

They resembled real mythical beasts, their bodies flowing with the power of moonlight, making them appear extraordinary.

Numerous Moonlight Beasts roared and pounced towards Ye Yun!

"Let me see just how powerful this so-called trial really is!"

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and, with a wave of his hand, unleashed the dragon blood silver blades that had been swirling around him.

In an instant, the silver blades rained down on the attacking Moonlight Beast.

However, to his surprise, these moon beasts were surprisingly sturdy.

Even with the Dragon Blood Silver Blade, it is difficult to pierce through them; each one requires at least four or five sword strikes to kill.

Although killing a beast of the same level so quickly is already impressive, it's clearly not feasible here.

Because in just that one exchange, Ye Yunxuan had already consumed a significant amount of his spiritual energy.

However, the number of mystical beasts he killed was only a dozen or so, far from ten thousand.

Inside this trial space, Ye Yun discovered that he couldn't fly yet; at most, he could only fly three to five meters off the ground.

But during this time, the Moon Beasts continued to attack from all directions.

He needs to dodge the attacks of the Moonlight Beasts while simultaneously killing them.

According to Ye Yun's estimation, with his skill level, he could kill at most three thousand before his Xuan Qi was exhausted ten times!

"No, no, I've seen it in your eyes, it's something I can't get past."

Ye Yun sighed and decisively decided to unleash his ultimate move.

"Senior Nangong!"

"They're here!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Nangong Jiutian's cheerful voice reached his ears.

Just then, Ye Yun was about to be ambushed by a mystical beast while switching bodies.

First, he used the Holy Light Shield to create a defensive barrier around himself before closing his eyes and relaxing his mind and body.

In an instant, Ye Yun felt himself lose control of his body, and could only watch as his body was manipulated like a spectator...

……

Outside the trial space, the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.

At this moment, the three of them watched as the number of mystical beasts Ye Yun had killed on the projection changed from zero to one, and then to two...

The rate of increase was quite fast, but Yue Wumian still shook her head.

"No, this kid is too slow. He's probably used up a lot of his Xuan Qi."

Looking at the numbers jumping around, Luo Meng asked in surprise.

"Huh? Is that slow?"

Looking at the fluctuating numbers, Yue Wumian said calmly.

"It would be fine for an ordinary person, but he specializes in flying swords, so the first trial should be in his area of ​​strength."

"Plus, you said he has ninety-nine flying swords, so his speed should increase even faster now."

"It seems they haven't figured out the trick."

This first trial cannot be overcome by brute force alone.

You need sharp eyesight, good footwork, and then you can start attacking.

Luo Meng seemed to be deep in thought, then asked a question out of curiosity.

"So, what about His Majesty's achievements back then?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Wumian pondered for a moment and then spoke.

"My score is... around eleven thousand."

Because it was so long ago, he doesn't remember the exact number very clearly, but he remembers it was roughly around 11,000.

Upon hearing this, Luo Meng sighed.

"So many? Your Majesty is truly amazing!"

Yue Wumian was indeed unimpressed by her praise.

He shook his head slightly and said.

"This number is still far less than that of our ancestors."

It is clear that Yue Wumian was not entirely satisfied with this result.

Luo Meng was taken aback for a moment, then asked curiously.

"What was the best achievement of our ancestors throughout history?"

This question made Yue Wumian ponder for a moment.

Then he said with a smile.

"The highest record was set by an ancestor who specialized in flying swords, and it was about 13,100 swords."

"Hmm, that's definitely... a bit exaggerated."

Luo Meng was deeply moved, even though the numbers weren't that different.

But you should know that once the number exceeds ten thousand, each additional one becomes a comprehensive test for the challenger!

Even Yue Wumian remarked on this.

"Yes, for many years afterward, no one broke this record."

"As for the future... I'm afraid no one will be able to break it again."

Only those who have truly experienced it can understand how incredible a score of 13,000 is.

In his view, no one could ever reach, or even come close to, that level again...

Just then, Luo Meng looked at the numbers on the projection and pondered for a moment.

"If that's the case, does he really have no chance?"

"I'm afraid so..."

Yue Wumian nodded slightly, then glanced at Yue Rushuang and said.

"Girl, now you see, right? He's not as outstanding as you thought."

In response, Yue Rushuang's face darkened, and she gave a cold snort.

"This is just the beginning; the outcome is still uncertain!"

"Alright, alright, just wait and see."

Yue Wumian shook her head, having already made up her mind.

Meanwhile, inside the trial space.

Nangong Jiutian, who was temporarily in charge of the body, moved around a little, as if he was warming up.

"After sleeping for so long, I can finally get out and move around a bit."

Nangong Jiutian clenched his fists and jumped around a bit, as if he wasn't quite used to his new body yet.

At the same time, Nangong Jiutian couldn't help but complain.

"To be honest, this area is really in your way. How about I take a picture of it?"

Ye Yun broke out in a cold sweat and immediately shouted.

"Senior, please don't cause trouble. I still have hope for happiness in my later years."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Jiutian joked.

"Hey, I was just kidding. Why are you so nervous? Do you think I'd actually kill you?"

Ye Yun was extremely frustrated by this.

"That's hard to say..."

He then reminded Nangong Jiutian.

"Senior, why don't we resolve this trial first? I've already given you the terms."

It wasn't that he was in a hurry, but rather that the Holy Light Shield couldn't hold out for long due to the sheer number of mystical beasts.

If this continues, the Holy Light Shield will soon break through, and he will be buried by a large number of Moonlight Beasts.

"Understood. My deals are always reliable!"

Nangong Jiutian grinned, then his gaze fell on the Moonlight Beasts swarming around him.

"Looking at these things, it's definitely her work. It would be quite troublesome for an ordinary person to deal with, but..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Jiutian manipulated Ye Yun's body to put away the Holy Light Shield.

In an instant, the numerous moon beasts, now free from their restraints, pounced on her in a frenzy.

The distance was extremely close, with almost no reaction time.

If we're not careful, we might be devoured by the Moonlight Beast.

Nangong Jiutian smiled slightly at this.

"Well done!"
