Chapter 17 The web of fate is coming

Jia Lan thought of the surging mental pressure just now, and immediately realized that he was no match for the white-haired young man in front of him, so he stopped humiliating himself.

She touched her stinging forehead and felt the bulging flesh on her forehead. Even though she was extremely angry, she did not choose to lose her temper on the spot.

As the crowd watched, Jia Lan glared at Hua Tiandu with his eyes seemingly spitting fire.

"I, Jia Lan, will remember today's shame. When I enter the Mystical Realm of Divine Power in the future, I will definitely seek your advice!"

Leaving behind the words "I will definitely get my face back in the future", she pushed through the crowd of onlookers and left in big strides, as if she didn't want to stay there any longer.

Hua Tiandu looked at the figure leaving in a panic and shouted loudly, fearing that the other party might not hear him clearly.

"Junior sister, when you break through to the realm of magical powers, remember to come find me."

In the distance, Jia Lan, who was about to turn the corner, paused when he heard these words, as if he wanted to turn around and argue, but after struggling for several times, he finally walked into the corner in silence and disappeared.

Next, Hua Tiandu sparred with two fellow disciples in the Divine Transformation Realm once more, but the sparring was limited and no one was injured.

In the competition, he mixed the various martial arts he had learned into different ways of connecting the moves. He even made slight changes to some of the moves to make the connection between them smoother.

After completing the two set goals of practicing martial arts and exchanging martial arts skills, Hua Tiandu began to stroll around the Wuxian Academy.

He walked to the big lake area, sat on the grass by the lake, felt the breeze, and lay down to rest.

However, I accidentally heard a small group nearby talking about topics such as "the battle between immortals and demons".

"Just a few days ago, the Grand Elder of Taiyi Sect fought a fierce battle with the Demon King in the underground abyss."

"I've also heard about this incident. It was said that it happened because of a true disciple of Taiyi Sect. That disciple was seriously injured in the underground abyss and almost died tragically."

"It is said that she is a female disciple named Yan, and she is the reincarnation of the ancient water god..."

Hua Tian did not continue to listen to the subsequent conversation.

Hearing this information, he immediately thought of the name 'Yanshuiyi'.

According to the trajectory of fate, hundreds of years later, Yan Shui was going to become his fiancée, but as fate would have it, she ended up becoming Fang Han's dual cultivation partner.

"Fang Wei who is suspected to be the ancestor of the Fang family, Jia Lan who I met today, and the female cultivator of Taiyi Sect who is suspected to be 'Yanshuiyi' in the underground abyss..."

"Has the web woven by fate begun to envelop me?"

At this moment, the images of Fang Wei, Jia Lan and others in his mind began to lose their lively life colors and became dim.

"These people are nothing more than puppets of fate..."

In the sunshine, Hua Tiandu lay on his back on the grass, his eyes fixed on the sun in the sky. His expression was somewhat complicated, and no one knew what was going on in his heart.
-
Time passed, and Hua Tiandu, who had been practicing hard for half a month, walked out of his yard early in the morning.

Today is the important day for Yuhua Sect to hold an examination for its inner disciples. The examination will be held at the 'Demon Battlefield'.

The Demonic Battlefield is actually a dead planet located in outer space. It is a unique space opened up by the supreme leader of the Yuhua Sect thousands of years ago.

Hua Tiandu came to the depths of Yuhua City and arrived at the "Sky Courtyard", which is the place to enter the Heavenly Demon Battlefield.

In front of the courtyard gate, he took out a specially made jade token and handed it to the deacon elder who was guarding the side of the gate for inspection.

Holding this jade token means you are qualified to take the test.

"Well, the jade token is real, you can go in."

With permission from the deacon elder, Hua Tiandu walked through the gate and came to the square in the courtyard.

At the end of the square there is a huge, tightly closed stone gate, which is the entrance to the Demonic Battlefield.

Next to the stone gate, four elders of the Yuhua Sect were sitting with their eyes closed. They were in charge of all matters related to this assessment.

Not long after, other outer disciples arrived one after another, all holding jade tokens. They were obviously those who were going to take the assessment in the Heavenly Demon Battlefield.

While waiting, some familiar disciples began to chat with each other. "I wonder how many people will die in this assessment?"

"Is the inner disciple examination so dangerous? Can people die?"

"Of course! In the last assessment, there were more than 10,000 people participating, but by the end of the assessment, only 259 people passed."

"Then all the remaining people are dead? This is too horrible!"

"No. About 3,000 people died in the Heavenly Demon Battlefield, and more than 4,000 disciples were tortured into madness by the extraterritorial Heavenly Demons. The remaining 2,000 sane disciples were rescued in time and were not harmed."

……

Some disciples who knew the inside story of the assessment began to explain some basic information about the assessment to some disciples who lacked information.

As time went by, more and more disciples gathered in the square and it became lively.

Hua Tiandu, who was standing in a corner of the square, even saw a few old acquaintances, including Jia Lan who was traveling alone, and Fang Wei and Song Fangfei who came together.

"Dang~"

Suddenly, a loud bell rang throughout the venue, and the four elders all opened their eyes and announced: "The examiners have gathered, and the examination has officially begun!"

At the same time, the stone door made a rumbling sound and slowly opened.

Behind the door was a void of nothingness, but bursts of air and space were escaping from it.

Following the crowd, Hua Tiandu handed over the jade token in his hand. An elder took it and threw it into the vacuum behind the stone gate.

"You can go in now." The elder gave instructions first, and then explained the assessment rules, "As long as you stay in the Heavenly Demon Battlefield for ten days and ten nights, you will be considered to have passed the assessment."

"What I need to tell you is that this assessment is life-threatening, and it's not too late to quit now."

Looking at the elder who was trying to persuade him, Hua Tiandu said firmly: "I want to participate in this assessment and have no intention of withdrawing."

Hearing this, the elder nodded, handed him a bottle of pills, and said, "These are five Bigu pills, which are for you to maintain your physical strength."

Hua Tiandu took the pill and walked directly to the mysterious area behind the door without saying a word.

The moment he stepped into the stone gate, he felt dizzy, as if he had fallen into an endless abyss. Not only did he lose his sense of direction, but he also lost all color in his eyes.

This strange feeling only lasted for two breaths.

By the time his senses recovered, Hua Tiandu had already arrived at a mountainous area. There was not even a single weed in sight, and the area seemed extremely desolate.

He looked up at the sky, and could only see the gray sky and twinkling stars.

It is worth mentioning that there are some "stone balls" "hanging" high in the sky, which are extremely eye-catching.

"These are the Death Stars, right?"

"The scene outside the sky is indeed strange."

After admiring the scenery in the sky, Hua Tiandu began to look around, intending to familiarize himself with the environment first.

"This is outer space, and the stone door you just passed through is the space-time passage."

Suddenly, the voice of the fire spirit came out from his body.

Since the Great Wilderness Ancient Furnace was refined by the Immortal Venerable Pan Wu himself, and Hua Tiandu's body was integrated with the essence and blood left by the Immortal Venerable Pan Wu, the two could be merged into one and would not be noticed by outsiders.

"This outer space is filled with a large number of extraterritorial demons. It is a good place to sharpen your spirit."

"In the next ten days and ten nights, I will not take action unless your life is in danger."
