Chapter 382 Li Cang's Trial
This situation made Li Cang a little confused. This kid actually chose to leave directly.
However, for a strong person in the Tianyan period, this is no joke. If the other party really intends to show up, there will probably be some trouble at that time.
"It's not impossible for me to help you, but you must pass the trial." Li Cang looked at Chen Li and said to him.
Hearing this, Chen Li slowly stopped and turned to look at Li Cang over there, "Senior, are you serious?"
Although he didn't know what Li Cang was thinking, Chen Li thought that this might be a good opportunity. He just didn't know what the so-called trial was about.
"I am a cultivator in the Tianyan period. How could I lie to you? And what benefit would it get me if I lied to you?" Li Cang replied.
Chen Li nodded, then walked back, "Since Senior said so, when do we start the trial?"
"Come with me, I will take you to the trial ground." Li Cang's voice was calm, but Chen Li felt something was wrong.
Could it be that this guy is planning to take me to some scary place? If that's the case, then I'm going to be in trouble.
Chen Li took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, allowing himself to calm down. It was useless to think about these things now.
Not long after, Chen Li and Li Cang had reached the edge of a cliff. The depth below was bottomless and even Chen Li had no way of finding anything inside.
"Next, I will give you five years to get out from here. As long as you can get out of here alive, I will help you." Li Cang stared at Chen Li and spoke in a flat voice.
Chen Li was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the test given to him was to walk out of such a bottomless cliff.
"What if we can't get out?" Chen Li looked at Li Cang and asked him.
Li Cang smiled and replied calmly: "If you can't get out, then don't ask me for help. After all, you will die in here."
This sentence made Chen Li understand that the other party was obviously trying to intimidate him. There might be something terrible waiting for him below.
To put it bluntly, the reason why Li Cang did this was just to make Chen Li give up. After all, the situation below could really kill a strong man in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
"I understand. Then when do we start?" Chen Li asked.
Although he was very clear about his situation, thinking about it now was probably of no use. In this case, why not choose to do as he wished?
Li Cang was quite surprised. Although he knew that Chen Li would agree, he didn't expect him to agree so readily. Was he really not afraid of dying here?
"Since you agree, let's start. Five years later, I hope to see you walk out of here alive." Li Cang looked at Chen Li and said seriously.
Chen Li nodded, but before he could say anything, he suddenly felt a push on his body. When he came to his senses, he found that he had been pushed down.
He was falling very quickly, and the black air surrounding him even made the spiritual energy in his body become somewhat disordered.
No, we can't continue like this, otherwise we will definitely encounter something unexpected when we land.
Chen Li knew very well that although he would not be killed by the fall given his physical strength, if any danger appeared in such an unknown place, he would be really doomed.
He took a deep breath, making his breathing even, while also regulating the spiritual energy in his body.
As the spiritual energy was released bit by bit, his body became much lighter. Half an hour later, he finally landed on the ground.
Chen Li had not expected that the cliff was so deep. It took him half an hour to fall down from the top.
Such a situation was indeed surprising, but he didn't think much about it now. He just observed the surroundings quietly. The surroundings looked flat without any obstructions, but there was lingering fog all around.
The mists surrounded Chen Li, making him feel that his consciousness was a little fuzzy, and he even had an urge to kill.
"It seems that this is the first level. I didn't expect it to be so simple." Chen Li muttered to himself with a big smile on his face.
If it were any other righteous cultivator, he would definitely be affected. Unfortunately, Chen Li did not claim to be a righteous cultivator. He practiced the Blood Evil Art, but the urge to kill was not as terrible as when he first practiced the Blood Evil Art.
He walked forward step by step. There was nothing around him except black fog. However, this road was too long. After walking for such a long time, he could not see the end.
It seems that he can only use spiritual energy and keep flying outside. After all, with Chen Li's cultivation level, he may be able to get out with just a thought.
As soon as he had a thought, spiritual energy filled his body and he suddenly flew forward. To his surprise, at the moment he was about to fly out, he suddenly felt a very deep spiritual energy coming at him.
The surrounding objects became a little weak, and for a moment there was a strong pressure coming, making Chen Li feel very painful all over his body.
This forced him to stop. If he continued like this, he would be doomed sooner or later. It seemed that this so-called trial would not allow any shortcuts.
Now that things have come to this point, he can only deal with it bit by bit. He doesn't think he has the ability to break the restrictions set by the Tianyan period strongman.
It seems that he can only use the most conventional method and move forward step by step. Although he doesn't know how long it will take, Chen Li does not intend to give up.
Before coming down, Li Cang had made it very clear that if he did not leave this place, the only fate waiting for him would be death.
Even if he didn't die, staying in such a place would probably bring him a lot of trouble.
Chen Li didn't know how many days he had been walking. When he came to his senses, he found that he had returned to the original place without knowing when.
Looking at the somewhat , Chen Li was a little confused. He remembered that he was walking on a straight road, and there was only one road in front of him. How could he walk back?
It has to be said that such a situation really made Chen Li feel helpless. He originally thought that he could leave here, but it seems that he really underestimated this restriction.
He slowly closed his eyes and used his spiritual sense to continuously explore the surroundings. Although there was no obstacle to the exploration of the spiritual sense, it was still limited in distance. For a strong person in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, it should be no problem for the coverage of the spiritual sense to cover the entire Nether Gorge Realm.
But under the cliff where Chen Li was, he could only explore the area within a radius of ten miles. This really made Chen Li a little confused.
"Well, I can only take it one step at a time." Chen Li muttered to himself, and then continued to move forward.
As he walked along, Chen Li could feel that the fog around him seemed to be getting thicker and thicker. If he had not relied on his spiritual sense to explore the road ahead, he would definitely have gone astray.
Even though there is only one way to go here, Chen Li still has this feeling in this fog.
After walking for a distance again, Chen Li suddenly stopped and stared ahead, because he could feel that there seemed to be something waiting for him to pass.
Boom, boom, boom! The opponent's footsteps were extremely heavy, and the ground shook with every step. Such a huge amount of leg strength was definitely not something a human could produce. In other words, what was waiting for him ahead was a monster.
Of course Chen Li was aware of this, so he had already started to prepare himself. With a thought, the Sword of Four Seasons appeared in his hand, and he unceremoniously slashed out a stream of sword energy in front of him.
The sword energy directly cut through the fog and rushed towards the monster in front. Surprisingly, although this move cut through the fog, the monster disappeared.
But the vibrating sound could still be heard around here, and it seemed that the guy still had no intention of leaving.
Chen Li frowned and used his spiritual sense to constantly observe the surrounding situation, with the aim of finding the trace of the monster.
Unexpectedly, even though Chen Li used his spiritual sense to investigate, he still couldn't find where that guy was, but the footsteps did not stop.
"Since you don't plan to come out, let me force you out." Chen Li's eyes became extremely sharp, and dozens of sword hearts flew around. Although there was only one way, it did not mean that there was no other way to go.
Boom! In an instant, the whole place shook violently, and the fog around was completely dispersed. However, the dispersed fog actually continued to condense in the same place.
The moment he saw the mist in front of him condense into the shape of a lion and rush towards Chen Li, Chen Li understood.
Everything you just heard was caused by this fog, and this is not real fog, but a monster called the Fog Beast.
The fog beast had become extinct thousands of years ago. Even Chen Li had only seen it in ancient books. He did not expect to see a real fog beast in the Nether Gorge Realm.
Although he was surprised, Chen Li did not let his guard down. The moment the opponent was about to rush over, Chen Li had already attacked forward.
The fog beast's body quickly turned into mist, and it easily avoided Chen Li's attack, and the mist continued to invade Chen Li's body.
Even though the fog beast's figure is illusory, after all, as long as its core is found, it can be fatally injured. However, the most crucial point now is that Chen Li has not found its core.
So when he saw the fog beast rushing towards him, Chen Li quickly stepped back and dodged the attack at a very fast speed.
It seems that as long as you don't use this high-speed movement method to travel, you won't trigger the restrictions here. Chen Li touched his chin. In this case, there is no need to hide your strength.
He took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy around him became increasingly dense. His speed became faster and faster, the sword light kept flashing, and the fog on the fog beast was constantly being dispelled.
After the mist was dispersed, it condensed again in just a few breaths.
Chen Li grinned and looked at a white bead in the center. This thing was the inner elixir of the fog beast and also its core. As long as the inner elixir was destroyed, the fog beast would perish on the spot.
It was a pity that he could not get such a good monster's inner core. Although he was very disappointed, Chen Li did not hesitate too much and rushed over immediately.
The fog beast, which was still quickly condensing fog, wanted to disperse itself immediately when it saw Chen Li rushing over.
However, Chen Li's speed was too fast and he didn't give it any chance at all. In just a moment, the fog beast's inner elixir was hit.
Crack, a crisp sound continued to spread, and soon disappeared completely.
After killing the fog beast, the fog around it began to dissipate, and it seemed that the strange situation before was no longer there.
"Sure enough, all this was caused by the fog beast." Chen Li glanced around and then continued on his way.
This time, the journey did not take as long as before. In just half an hour, he had already reached the next area.
