Chapter 334 The Immortal Venerable's Trial Begins, Yao Nu Embarks on Her Journey
"Is this the place where the Immortal Venerables are undergoing trials..." I murmured to myself, gazing at the rolling sea of clouds before me, which resembled the gaping maw of a giant beast, ready to devour everything.
This is much more dangerous than the fairyland we explored before!
The air around me felt like mountains pressing down on my chest, making each breath a struggle.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, but it felt like I was inhaling a knife instead of air, cutting into my internal organs.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Wen Chen's voice came from beside me, as gentle as ever. His hand was tightly holding mine, conveying warmth and strength.
Even so, I was still so nervous that my palms were sweating.
As soon as I stepped into the trial grounds, I felt my feet sink into the ground. The scene before me was like a shattered mirror, twisting, spinning, and overlapping... Had I stepped into a spatial trap?!
"Damn it!" I cursed under my breath, trying desperately to steady myself, but everything around me was changing and I couldn't find my way at all.
I felt like I had been thrown into a giant whirlpool; I was dizzy, my stomach was churning, and I almost threw up.
"What should I do..." I was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. The more anxious I became, the less I could find a way out.
Before I could even catch my breath, a cold wind blew by, making my hair stand on end, and I instinctively dodged to the side.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Several dark figures rushed in from all directions. When I looked closely, I realized they were a group of expressionless puppets!
These puppets are no joke; each one exudes ruthlessness, and the weapons in their hands gleam coldly. They are clearly not to be trifled with.
"Good timing!" I suppressed my panic, drew my longsword, and charged forward.
"Clang clang clang!"
Swords flashed and sparks flew as I fought the puppets.
But there were just too many of these puppets, and they were incredibly strong, so I gradually started to feel the strain.
"Damn it, this can't go on!" I gritted my teeth, and fine beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
Just then, I suddenly felt everything go black, and a strong sense of fear surged into my heart.
I felt as if I had returned to that stormy night before I traveled back in time, trapped alone in a dark room, crying helplessly...
"No! This isn't real!" I shook my head violently, trying to shake off this terrible hallucination, but it clung to me like a leech.
"Hehehe...Little girl, are you scared?" A sinister voice rang in my ear. It was the White Bone Demon!
That damned fairy, taking advantage of our misfortune!
Fear, despair, helplessness... all sorts of negative emotions overwhelmed me like a tide, my movements became sluggish, and I could barely hold the sword.
"No, I can't give up!"
At this critical moment, I suddenly remembered Wen Chen's encouragement, the expectations of everyone in the Immortal Sect, and the hardships I had endured along the way...
"I control my own life!"
I roared, and the spiritual power within my body erupted like a volcano, shattering the illusions around me instantly.
"Break it for me!"
I brandished my longsword, using all my skills, and unleashed a barrage of sword energy at the puppets like a raging storm.
"Boom boom boom!"
The puppets were blown to pieces, turning into piles of scrap metal.
I stood amidst the chaos, panting heavily, but an excited smile spread across my face.
"Phew...it's finally over." I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling full of energy.
"Well done!" Wen Chen's voice rang out from outside the training ground, carrying a hint of satisfaction and pride.
However, before I could be happy for long, a powerful pressure descended from the sky. When I looked up, Erlang Shen's tall figure appeared in front of me.
"Little girl, you've got some skills. Now, let me, your lord, teach you a lesson!" Erlang Shen's voice was like a booming bell, making my eardrums buzz.
"Come on then, who's afraid of who!" I straightened my back and went to meet them without fear.
The three-pointed double-edged sword in Erlang Shen's hand gleamed coldly, and each swing carried the force of thunder. I dared not be careless and used all my skills to fight him to a standstill.
Swords clashed, sparks flew, and the surrounding space seemed to be torn apart.
"What an amazing girl!" A hint of surprise flashed in Erlang Shen's eyes. "She was able to withstand so many of my attacks!"
"Hmph, this is nothing!" I snorted coldly, and my spiritual energy surged wildly within me.
In the midst of the fierce battle, I suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in my mind, as if something had been unlocked.
"This is... a new immortal technique?" I was overjoyed and immediately poured my spiritual power into the longsword according to the insights in my mind.
"Take this, Erlang Shen!"
I shouted loudly, and the longsword in my hand burst forth with dazzling light, a huge sword aura slashing towards Erlang Shen.
Erlang Shen's pupils contracted, and he quickly raised his three-pointed double-edged sword to defend himself.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, Erlang Shen was actually forced back several steps!
"Good! Good! Good!" Erlang Shen laughed three times. "Little girl, you have indeed not disappointed me!"
Standing in the training ground, feeling the surging power within me, I was filled with pride.
Erlang Shen looked at me, slowly nodded, his eyes full of admiration.
"Still have the strength? In the next level, no one will show mercy." Erlang Shen's voice suddenly turned deep, and he turned slightly to the side, as if gesturing for me to look in a certain direction.
