Chapter 858: Chapter 857: Eighteen Attacks!
The sigh of the Three-Eyed Profound Ape, Ye Qingchen could no longer hear.
At this moment.
He had already arrived in the Black Nether Profound Sea.
This sea was even darker and more profound than what he had seen before. It seemed not like a sea, but an abyss capable of swallowing all existence!
However, the only good point was that the Spiritual Qi in this sea area was incredibly rich. Without even deliberately cultivating, it was more than ten times faster than his cultivation speed in the outside world!
"Is this my trial ground? Such rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi!"
"However!"
"Where is my trial? How exactly can I pass this trial?"
Ye Qingchen squinted, his gaze vigilant as he looked around.
He had a feeling.
His trial would come from this Black Nether Profound Sea beneath him.
Sure enough.
As soon as this thought arose, the voice of the Three-Eyed Profound Ape echoed in the sea area:
"Young man!"
"In this sea area, you will face eighteen waves of attacks in total! After withstanding each attack, you have three days to rest and recover! Only by completely blocking all eighteen waves of attacks will you have fully passed the trial!"
"This is a life and death struggle! If you die in these attacks, you will fall here completely, just like the others, leaving nothing behind!"
"Moreover, this trial tests not only your combat power but also your will and potential!"
Boom!
In the words of the Three-Eyed Profound Ape, the originally calm sea beneath Ye Qingchen suddenly surged with a terrifying wave, followed by a huge shadow darting out like lightning!
It was an enormous Dragon Turtle resembling a small mountain! Its head bore a single horn, and its shell, covered in moss, rose high like the spine of a mountain. Its eyes shone as brightly as the sun and the moon.
Additionally, the turbulent and wild Demon Power on its body was already being unleashed without restraint.
"Is this the first wave of attack?"
"According to what the Three-Eyed Profound Ape said earlier, with my strength, it should be easy to fend off the first nine waves of attack!"
"In that case, let’s not waste time!"
Ye Qingchen squinted his eyes.
As he was sizing up this Dragon Turtle.
The Dragon Turtle had already noticed Ye Qingchen and at the same time let out a roar. This roar was not like a turtle’s cry but rather the bellow of a fierce beast. In this terrifying roar, this massive Dragon Turtle, seemingly clumsy, with a swipe of its giant paw!
It swept up an enormous wave with unimaginable agility, crashing down like mountains and rivers, aiming fiercely at Ye Qingchen!
"Boom!"
In the instant the Dragon Turtle charged over, Ye Qingchen had already raised his right hand. In the void, a whirlwind gathered, swiftly transforming into a gigantic palm, and in an instant, this gigantic palm was slapping toward the Dragon Turtle.
"Bang!"
This gigantic palm, like the hand of a god, shattered the void with its crushing force.
The vast wave was instantly torn apart, and the gigantic palm, without losing momentum, landed on the body of the Dragon Turtle. With a cracking sound, that Dragon Turtle was utterly crushed beneath Ye Qingchen’s palm.
Just one move!
The Dragon Turtle was slain by Ye Qingchen!
"This Dragon Turtle was only equivalent to the Human Immortal Eighth Layer, not difficult for me at all!"
"However, this kind of trial will probably get more difficult as it goes on! There might even be attacks with Cultivation Realm and strength far beyond my imagination!"
"After withstanding each attack, I have three days to rest. I can use this time to improve my cultivation!"
Thinking of this.
Ye Qingchen sat down cross-legged, entering into cultivation!
...
Three days!
Amidst a vast sound of water, Ye Qingchen, who was immersed in cultivation, woke up instantly.
Although.
It had only been three days, it felt like three months of cultivation to Ye Qingchen. Although he reached Half-Step Earth Immortal cultivation, it was forcibly driven by Qi Blood at the Void Peak.
If he were seriously injured, or if his Qi Blood was insufficient, there was a risk of falling in Realm.
But in these three days, he completely solidified his cultivation.
"This Black Nether Profound Sea is truly amazing!"
"I have already cultivated here for three days, but outside, it might not even be an hour. If I can withstand eighteen waves of attacks, I might reach Earth Immortal!"
Boom!
As Ye Qingchen thought this.
The water surface broke open again.
This time, what appeared before him was a Demon Carp, this carp was hundreds of feet long, with scales all over its body presenting a black color. As it appeared, it swung its massive tail, creating a giant wave.
The vast wave even transformed into a gigantic Trident, and as it formed, it shot relentlessly toward Ye Qingchen!
And yet.
Ye Qingchen still eliminated it with one move!
"The second wave of attack, its strength was indeed significantly stronger than the last wave. Indeed, just as the Three-Eyed Profound Ape said, the eighteen waves of attacks get progressively harder!"
"I am afraid the difficulty by the eighteenth wave will exceed my imagination!"
"I must seize the time!"
Ye Qingchen took a deep breath and immediately began meditating again.
And so.
Every three days, Ye Qingchen would fend off one attack.
He commenced frenzied cultivation and combat in the Black Nether Profound Sea!
And his strength, too, in this relentless grinding, rapidly ascended with an inconceivable momentum!
Meanwhile.
Other Elder candidates entering the Cyan Nether Hall for their examination also began to undergo their trials in different regions. However, their trials were unrelated to the Cyan Nether Hall and the inheritance of the master of the Three-Eyed Profound Ape.
By the time the examination was halfway through, nearly a third of the original eighty-two Elder candidates had been eliminated.
Those remaining were mainly a few formidable presences from the Seven Peaks.
Such as Jian Chen from Seven Stars Peak.
Ji Jiuming from Piaomiao Peak!
Yue Fang from Cold Star Peak!
These were individuals who had been in the Entering Earth Immortal Realm for several years, with very solid foundations and fundamentals. Those like Jian Chen, who had stepped into Earth Immortal more recently, naturally were among the first to be eliminated.
Yet.
Due to the presence of the Bronze Token, those candidates were all able to leave the Cyan Nether Hall unscathed, returning to the plaza.
When they learned that Ye Qingchen had entered the Black Nether Profound Sea, which had been sealed for over two hundred years within the Cyan Nether Hall, and that the light screen monitoring Ye Qingchen had shattered and could no longer contain their inner elation.
