Proving Immortality Starting with Hextech Runes

At this moment, Chen Xu discovered that his cultivation level had been suppressed to the early stage of Qi Refining.

He frowned slightly as he surveyed the space.

"What will this first test be... killing monsters? Or breaking through an illusion?"

Just as he was on high alert, the pool of blood in front of him suddenly surged.

An irresistible suction force pulled Chen Xu down.

Thick, hot blood instantly engulfed him, and a feeling of suffocation and oppression struck him simultaneously.

Worse still, countless ferocious beasts roared and plunged into the blood pool from the mist, tearing at his protective aura.

Chen Xu instinctively resisted, trying to break free of his restraints and repel the monster.

However, the more she struggled, the stronger the suction of the blood pool became, and the faster her body sank.

"What's the point of testing this?"

Faced with this situation, Chen Xu stopped resisting and waited to be kicked out of the trial space so he could challenge it again.

Then, his body stopped sinking, and the frantically biting monsters disappeared.

Then, Chen Xu's vision cleared up, and he found himself standing in an open space, with no trace of the blood pool in sight.

"What's going on? Did it pass already?" Chen Xu was stunned for a moment, feeling somewhat speechless.

"This test... is rather unique..."

Outside the tower, Li Yuan stared at a single point of light that had appeared on the Nine Departure Heart Forging Tower, his face filled with disbelief.

"It passed so quickly?!"

"This first level is entirely filled with those eerie pools of blood; the more you struggle, the deeper you sink. How did Chen Xu manage to get through it?"

Li Yuan couldn't understand it, so he went back into the tower to take on the challenge again.

At this moment, after passing through the first level, a message appeared before Chen Xu's eyes:

Since struggling is futile, why not succumb to despair? Close your eyes and experience it for yourself; only then will you grasp the true meaning. Congratulations on passing the trial. Claim your reward, or proceed to the next level?

"..." Chen Xu stared at the line of text and fell silent for a moment.

"Struggling is useless... so should I just give in and sink into depravity?"

"The educational philosophy of the First Holy Sect... is far too advanced..."

He simply couldn't imagine that an ancient sect that once had a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge...

He would use this almost passive approach to teach his disciples how to deal with crises.

Chen Xu couldn't help but wonder to himself, "Just what kind of sect is the First Saint Sect...?"

After venting his frustrations, Chen Xu had a sudden thought and chose to enter the next level.

Then, the scene before my eyes changed rapidly.

Chen Xu found himself sitting on a golden dragon throne.

Looking around, one sees an extremely luxurious and magnificent palace.

The dome is inlaid with bright pearls, the ground is paved with spiritual jade, and the pillars are wrapped with golden dragons, displaying supreme majesty everywhere.

Chen Xu was wearing an imperial robe embroidered with a nine-clawed golden dragon, which was not known at some point.

And... he was also holding a stunningly beautiful woman nestled in his arms.

The woman was dressed in a gossamer-thin palace gown, her figure exquisitely graceful and alluring.

Her features were exquisite, and her eyes were captivating, as if they could draw one's soul in.

At this moment, she was leaning against Chen Xu's chest, one long, smooth leg draped lazily over the armrest of the dragon throne.

A layer of almost transparent white gauze covered her legs, adding to the allure of mystery.

"Your Majesty, it's time for your meal..." The beauty's lips parted slightly, her voice ringing in Chen Xu's ear, her eyes practically drooping with longing.

She was holding a porcelain bowl with gold trim and dragon patterns, and she scooped up a spoonful with a small spoon and put it in her mouth.

Then, to Chen Xu's astonishment, she slightly raised her stunningly beautiful face, her mouth full of porridge, and slowly brought her red lips to Chen Xu's mouth.

Enjoy reading "The Path to Immortality: Starting with Hextech Runes".

His eyes were glazed over, and his breath was sweet as orchids; his intentions were all too clear.

Chen Xu raised an eyebrow, alarm bells ringing in his mind: "Wait, what kind of test is this? Is it even serious?"

Logically, to cope with such a test of illusion, one should cut off the temptation before one's eyes with a single sword strike to demonstrate one's resolve.

However, considering the experience after passing the first level, it is clear that the test of the Initial Saint Sect cannot be done in the usual way.

"Could it be... that the test of the First Saint Sect is meant to do the opposite of what is expected?"

Thinking of this, Chen Xu composed himself but still didn't bring his mouth to the lips.

He reached out, ready to take the porcelain bowl from the beauty's hand and taste the hot porridge himself.

However, just as his fingers were about to touch the bowl, time seemed to freeze in the entire hall.

The beauty's pose froze in the gesture of offering a kiss, while Chen Xu's outstretched hand remained stiff in mid-air, unable to move an inch.

"Why am I stuck?" Chen Xu wondered.

"Does the rule mean we have to accept this method of feeding?"

After much internal struggle, Chen Xu ultimately compromised.

He sighed helplessly to himself, "Oh well, that's all I can do..."

Just as he tried to lean forward slightly and bring his mouth closer...

The frozen scene finally came to life.

A warm, sweet porridge, accompanied by the woman's unique fragrance, slowly entered Chen Xu's mouth.

The beauty's smile deepened. After finishing the imperial meal, she took Chen Xu's hand and said sweetly:

"Your Majesty has been busy with state affairs today and must be exhausted. Why don't you come with me to the hot springs in the backyard to relax?"

Chen Xu did not refuse again and followed the beauty to an open-air hot spring pool shrouded in mist.

The pool water was crystal clear, shimmering with a spiritual light, and surrounded by exotic flowers and rare plants.

The beauty removed her palace attire, her graceful figure appearing and disappearing in the mist.

She pulled Chen Xu into the pool to play, splashing water and laughing merrily...

As night deepened, the boudoir was warm, and the red candles flickered.

Amidst the enchanting spring scenery, Chen Xu passively experienced the ultimate pleasures of an emperor...

When everything returned to calm, the scene before Chen Xu's eyes vanished once more, and a new line of text slowly appeared:

The path to immortality is long, and the desires of food and sex are natural. Only by living freely and unrestrained can one truly appreciate the joys of youth. Congratulations on passing the trial! Claim your reward, or proceed to the next level?

Chen Xu looked at the words that appeared before him, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

He finally understood that none of the trials of the Initial Saint Sect were conducted according to common sense.

Instead of racking your brains trying to guess the rules, just deal with them as they come.

Bring on whatever challenges you face... Without further hesitation, Chen Xu proceeded to the next level...

Meanwhile, outside the tower.

Li Yuan once again crawled out of the tower gate in a disheveled state.

"Damn it! How did the first level of the trial suddenly change?!"

"Could it be... that once the original test is passed, the content of the test automatically changes?!"

"This Trial Tower of the First Saint Sect is too bizarre!"

His gaze turned to the Nine-Part Heart Forging Tower, and he noticed that a second point of light had appeared, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Then, gritting his teeth, he went inside again.

"I refuse to believe... we can't even take down the first level?"

After Li Yuan's figure disappeared outside the tower, a refined-looking cultivator suddenly appeared in the same spot.

It was Wen Tianhe, whose cultivation had fallen to the early stage of Core Formation.

He also looked at the two points of light on the Nine Departure Heart Forging Tower, a hint of helplessness appearing between his brows.

Then he stepped inside.

"I refuse to believe... that I, a dignified Core Formation cultivator, can't even pass the first level of the test?"
