Perfect World: The First Dao Body in the Chaotic Era!

Forced out of the void, one of them stepped forward and said:

"Fellow Daoist, please don't be offended. We are just here to observe the ceremony."

As for the truth, everyone knew it, but no one said it aloud. The old man didn't say anything more.

Those who came today, apart from those who brought outstanding members of their clans to participate in the trials, were those who came to find the mischievous child and the little devil.

"Shh-"

Just then, seeing that almost everyone had gathered and the trial was about to begin, the elders of the Demon Spirit Lake and the Rain Clan, who had been waiting for a long time, directly rode their mounts to pierce through the sky.

The leading elder, with eyes as sharp as lightning, swept his gaze across the tens of thousands of people, his purpose quite clear.

"The Demon Spirit Lake and the Rain Clan are being so direct; are they trying to snatch people from the Heaven-Mending Pavilion?" Many people couldn't help but exclaim in surprise upon seeing this.

"Fellow Daoist has crossed the line!"

The old man unleashed his power, instantly forcing the two races in mid-air to a halt, and the atmosphere instantly became tense and confrontational.

"Fellow Daoist, please forgive us; it was our recklessness."

The Rain Clan elder spoke with a forced smile, a hint of disappointment in his eyes, clearly indicating that he had gained nothing.

"Humph!"

The old man snorted coldly and, without further ado, addressed the crowd:

"The trial begins!"

If this continues, who knows what unexpected things might happen? The best solution right now is to let them go through the challenges, so that outsiders can't interfere.

shhhhh--

As soon as he finished speaking, several figures of the Patching Heaven Pavilion elders instantly appeared in the void.

Some stood on longswords, others lay half-reclined on spears. The most mystical of them all was a being who commanded a divine mountain, and he divided eighty or ninety thousand people into eight groups.

The many young people looked apprehensive and did not enter the mountain gate, but instead followed the elders of the Butian Pavilion westward.

They arrived at a vast, desolate land, ravaged and filled with the stench of decay.

This was originally an ancient battlefield, but it is now under the control of the Butian Pavilion. They know what kind of ferocious beasts are inside, so they have turned it into a training ground.

"This battlefield is divided into eight areas, each covered with runes to prevent ferocious beasts from entering."

"If you can withstand the ancient rune array until the end, you can join the Heaven-Mending Pavilion."

"Furthermore, if someone can directly penetrate the rune array and arrive at the second battlefield, all the opportunities within will belong to the destined person. However, it is also extremely dangerous, and each person must decide for themselves how to proceed."

After explaining the rules, the person didn't hesitate for long and immediately announced the start.

"Enter the array! I wish you all the best in passing the trial."

At a single command, eighty or ninety thousand men instantly transformed into eight long rivers, surging into this ancient battlefield.

Meanwhile, the generals and elders of various factions were still frantically searching for the Little Demon King and the mischievous child, but they found nothing.

They could only stubbornly stay at the entrance, carefully checking every child who entered.

Li Dao sat cross-legged on Qingque, holding a juicy, fragrant fruit in his hand.

While eating, he looked down at the magnificent scene below, his expression completely calm, quietly waiting for Shi Hao to cause trouble inside.

The female war goddess, who was watching everything with great interest, noticed Li Dao, who seemed to be enjoying it even more than she was, and asked Xia Youyu beside her with some curiosity:

Who is this?

Li Dao's hands didn't stop moving. Without waiting for Xia Youyu to speak, he said without turning his head:

"Li Zizai greets fellow Daoist."

A glint flashed in the eyes of the female warrior. She nodded without saying anything more. She hadn't noticed before, but upon closer inspection, she was shocked to find that the person in front of her seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, making it impossible to see clearly.

"That's just how my junior brother is, don't take it to heart."

Seeing this, Xia Youyu also spoke up from the side.

As the sun began to set, the many cultivators waiting for the results all around grew increasingly impatient.

"Why hasn't anyone come out yet? Could something have happened?"

"Hey, what's the rush? My son failed the first three times, that's normal."

The lotus-shaped Dao patterns in Li Dao's eyes slowly faded away, and he thought to himself:

"It should be about time!"

The moment the thought crossed his mind, he saw dozens of figures emerge from the entrance.

The disciples were completely bewildered by the dense, overwhelming crowd of cultivators outside.

"I'm out now?"

"I beat the game! I did it!!"

"How come this time it's so easy? Compared to the previous two trials, it's child's play!"

Looking at the group of cheering teenagers, not only were they somewhat bewildered, but the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion were also somewhat bewildered.

"what?"

"Are there really that many prodigies this time? Are there really so many people coming out?"

"This is still the eighth area, which is relatively easy, so it's normal for so many people to come out... right?"

At this moment, many elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion were still thinking silently in their hearts, when hundreds more people came out from the seventh region.

There was no doubt that something was wrong inside.

"Could the formation have failed? How come so many people are coming out?"

"Could it be that some brat is causing trouble inside?!"

"It seems we were too naive. Putting that brat and the little devil together is bound to cause some trouble!"

"But what should we do now? Based on the original trial intensity, these people are all unqualified!"

"What else can we do now? We need to hurry in and check, cut our losses in time, and prevent things from getting even worse!"

The faces of many elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion turned pale and then red. Although they had long heard of the mischievous child and the little devil, seeing it happening in person was still a headache.

Listening to Li Dao's words and seeing the indignant elders turning their anger towards him, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Especially feeling the strange gaze from Xia Youyu beside him made him feel uneasy.

Seeing that his time to act had come, he spoke to the elder in the lead:

"Elder, something has happened inside. I'd like to go and take a look."

When the old man saw that the person who spoke was Li Dao, he was puzzled, but he saw that Li Dao had come with Xia Youyu.

Assuming the other party was a prodigy secretly cultivated by the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, he did not refuse and nodded slightly.

"In that case, let's go in together with Elder Zhuo Yun and the others."

Li Dao nodded, gestured to Xia Youyu behind him, and then followed Elder Zhuo Yun and the others towards the trial grounds.

Xia Youyu, who was watching everything from behind, didn't know why Li Dao had done this, but she didn't say anything.

"Your junior brother looks cold, but he has a warm heart."

The Goddess of War watched Li Dao's disappearing figure, a thoughtful look flashing in her eyes. However, unable to figure it out, she could only smile and hint at it indirectly.

"Junior brother is indeed like that."

Xia Youyu replied calmly, leaving everyone puzzled.

On the other side, Elder Zhuo Yun erected a light blue protective shield, protecting Li Dao and several other elders in the middle to avoid interference from the formation.

Arriving above the trial grounds, he addressed Li Dao and the others:

"Split up and quickly investigate all areas to find the source of the disruption to the trial."

After speaking, he turned his gaze to Li Dao, a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

"Will you come with me, or..."

Li Dao naturally understood his meaning: he was afraid that his Cave Heaven Realm would be affected within this array domain, and it would be truly shameful if he couldn't get out.

"Elder, you don't need to worry about me. I will investigate on my own."

Zhuo Yun didn't say much after hearing this. Although he had doubts, he didn't say anything more.

However, he still thought to himself:

"Although they are secretly trained prodigies, they probably haven't experienced much danger. This array domain is not so easy to withstand."

"This should also be a chance to train and hone their skills."

Li Dao had no idea what the other party was thinking. After choosing a direction, he stepped straight out of the protective barrier set up by Elder Zhuo Yun.

In an instant, an incredibly viscous pressure surged towards him, as if he had fallen into a quagmire and could not move an inch.

Li Dao's body stiffened slightly, and he thought to himself:

"It seems that the higher you go in this array, the greater the pressure becomes."

"But thinking about it, it makes sense. If there were no restrictions at high altitudes, the people taking the trial could simply use flight techniques to pass the test quickly."

Seeing Li Dao's body freeze in place, Zhuo Yun, who was behind him, had already thought of a way to save face for him, but couldn't help but shake his head inwardly:

"They're still too young."

Swah——

However, before he could offer Li Dao a way out, a pair of lifelike wings, shimmering with purple-gold light, unfolded behind Li Dao.

With a slight tremor, it carried the sound of wind and thunder, tearing through the air and disappearing quickly from sight.

"Small……"

Zhuo Yun swallowed the words that were about to be spoken, his pupils constricting as if he had seen something incredible.

The pressure high above the array is something that a cultivator from a grotto-heaven realm cannot withstand.
