C38 Stone Man
Lin Xiu knew that regardless of whether it was the inheritance of Netherworld Palace or the fortune Bai Sou left behind, if he wanted to continue on his journey, he had to complete the trial of the nine hundred plus stone steps.
Once he understood this, he didn't waste any more time, and started to focus all of his attention on the test he was about to face.
However, he was not in a hurry to continue on his journey. Instead, he placed his gaze on the chess board on the stone table. Since Bai Sou was able to seal the Nine Nether Domain on the chess board, it was likely that it was no ordinary object.
Lin Xiu walked up to the chessboard and carefully examined it for a moment. After confirming that there was no danger, he removed the chessboard from the stone table.
The chessboard that was supposed to be crisscrossed with each other was now tightly entangled with the black and white. It vaguely looked like a primal chaos. The black and white chess pieces were all emitting a powerful aura and seemed to be hiding a powerful energy.
Carefully taking down one of the chess pieces, Lin Xiu noticed that the pressure from the chess piece disappeared immediately. All the energy seemed to be restrained as the chess pieces were broken down.
Lin Xiu, who was in the middle of the elemental energy storm was like a lonely boat in the ocean, in danger of being destroyed at any time. In his panic, Lin Xiu hurriedly withdrew his elemental energy from the chess piece, and the violent Heavenly Earth Element slowly calmed down.
Lin Xiu put away the chessboard and the chess pieces on his body. He could not conceal the excitement on his face.
He had really made a huge profit this time!
If one were to infuse elemental energy into the chess piece in an unexpected manner during a battle and then smash it towards the opponent, it would be like carrying a bomb.
If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't bring the stone table away with him, he probably wouldn't even have let it go.
Lin Xiu, who was in a great mood, was much less awed by the survival training in the future. On the contrary, he was more eager to give it a try. If he could reach the end of the world, then his harvest this time could really change his fate!
Tightening the baggage on his body, Lin Xiu started to continue on this unknown journey. He was looking forward to what would happen next.
Not letting him down, after advancing another 30 steps, the scene in front of him suddenly became clear. What appeared in front of him was a valley filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers. Lin Xiu couldn't help but moan at the density of the world's spiritual energy.
He began to run through the valley, feeling as if he had turned into a gust of wind. He ran slowly with the birds on the branches and the flowing stream. Occasionally, he would stop in front of a few bright flowers to whisper to them.
Unknowingly, he had become more and more compatible with the wind elemental spiritual energy of the heaven and earth, completely becoming a part of the wind. He didn't even need to use his movement technique to stun others; his speed was almost the same as when he was at full speed!
This was a gift. It was a gift from the old man named Bai Sou to the younger generation of the mainland. It was just that only Lin Xiu currently enjoyed this gift.
After the gentle breeze passed, Lin Xiu laid down beside the stream quietly. Looking at the rolling clouds in the sky, he gradually relaxed.
Ever since he could remember, he had been diligently cultivating, hoping to cure Father Lin's injuries, hoping to reunite with his family. These past few years, he had truly been too tired.
Lin Xiu gradually fell into a dream. In the dream, he seemed to see his family reunited, and he was really happy. A smile unconsciously formed on his lips, like a child.
She looked at Liu Tie gently and said in a soft voice, "Little guy, not bad at all. You actually found such a place. Jiu You and Bai Sou are really amazing people."
Even Lin Xiu, who always had a strong sense of power in his eyes, had a face full of reverence when he mentioned them.
She really wanted to know if Lin Xiu could pass the test here without her help. Moreover, even if she had the intention to help, it was probably because she didn't have enough strength left over from Bai Sou's existence. She was not able to deal with the aftereffects left behind by someone like Bai Sou.
His body turned into a ball of light and entered Lin Xiu's body. It was as if Lord Fenghuo had never appeared before.
After a full four hours, Lin Xiu slowly woke up. He wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand, then looked around guiltily. Only after seeing that there was no one around, did he feel relieved.
Calming himself down, Lin Xiu no longer wanted to stay here and continued forward without any hesitation.
"Buzz!"
The scene in front of him suddenly changed. Lin Xiu came to a closed stone room with three stone men inside. The moment Lin Xiu entered, the three stone men suddenly moved and surrounded Lin Xiu.
Seeing that the room he could move was getting narrower, Lin Xiu knew that this was not the time to hesitate and decisively made the first move.
What surprised him was that when his fist landed on the stone man, it only shook off a little bit of the stone fragments. It couldn't even shake the stone man a little.
At this moment, the attacks of the other two stone men also landed on Lin Xiu's body. In an instant, Lin Xiu felt as if his five visceras and six organs were about to shift under their attacks.
If he hadn't cultivated the Thousand Layered Body Refinement Art, his own body would be far stronger than a martial artist of the same level, and this attack could directly take his life!
These three stone men all had Bone Quenching Stage, and they might even be existences close to the peak!
A hint of bitterness appeared on the corner of Lin Xiu's mouth. Isn't this test too abnormal? He actually wanted a late stage Blood Refinement martial artist to face three enemies of a higher realm.
Subconsciously, Lin Xiu's hand went into his pocket. He wanted to use the black and white chess pieces he just got to deal with the three stone men.
What made him disappointed was that no matter how much elemental energy was injected into his body, the previously violent chess piece did not move at all. Lin Xiu sighed and put on his Wind Chaser Boxing Gloves as he prepared to fight against the three stone men.
In terms of strength, he wasn't even a match for any of the stone men. If he couldn't rely on his speed advantage, he would probably die here.
With a slight movement of his body, Lin Xiu discovered that his speed had increased greatly compared to before. It was as if he had become the favorite of the wind, extremely comfortable.
With the advantage of this speed, Lin Xiu put some distance between one of the stone men and the other two. Then, he quickly formed a seal with his hands and threw a Clear Wind Palm at the stone man's chest.
Lin Xiu's eyes lit up as he stared at the indented area on the chest of the stone man, thinking that there was hope.
Ever since he came out of the valley, Lin Xiu felt that he had become more sensitive towards the wind attribute. He believed that if he were to use the Cool Breeze Palm, it would be able to significantly change its might.
Lin Xiu chuckled twice and his gaze started to wander in front of the three stone men. Since his speed could completely crush the stone men and his attacks could cause them injuries, he will slowly wear you down.
