Barrier of Light

"How is the trial going in the Heart-Cleaning Pool?"

"As you expected...those extraordinary beings without power or background, even if they get this opportunity, they cannot grasp it. Not even one tenth of them can pass the test of the Heart Washing Pond."

The Great Elder walked towards the temple, listening to the Holy Judge's report on the way.

"Those 'loose cultivators' selected in the primary election have basically completed the trial. There are still many people who cannot resist the mental pressure brought by the water in the heart-washing pool and can only choose to abstain."

The Holy Inquisitor smiled and said: "Now that these casual cultivators have gone back, the next step is the trials of the ambassadors."

"good."

The great elder nodded.

With his identity and the preciousness of his "blood," how could he waste time monitoring the trials of ordinary extraordinary people?

If there is a unique genius among those casual cultivators, he will pay attention to it when the time comes.

The great elder asked: "Are all the people from the mission here?"

The Holy Inquisitor said respectfully: "They are all here. They are all waiting for you."

"Um...Is Song Ci here?"

The great elder pondered for a moment and suddenly mentioned a name.

The Holy Inquisitor's tone was a little complicated, and he said: "He's here, and he's the earliest. Is he the legendary [Apostle]?"

The great elder raised his eyebrows and said, "What, is there any problem?"

"The one named Song... is really weird."

The Holy Inquisitor thought about it again and again, but really didn't know how to describe it. Finally, he could only say helplessly: "Great Elder, you will know after seeing it."

The so-called Heart-Cleaning Pool Trial is actually not as complicated as it sounds.

When Guangming City was built around Sunset Mountain and Red Lake, there was a deep pit on the back of Shanyin. Later, Guangming God Seat used the "power of fire" to fill the pit, and diverted the water from Red Lake to carry out the project. water.

If you want to set foot on the Red Lake, you must have permission from the temple.

The heart-washing pool is a "simplified version" of the Red Lake. Practicing here can help people calm down quickly.

Practicing in silence is also divided into levels.

Although the "focusing" effect that the Heart Washing Pond can provide is not as good as that of the Red Lake, it is more than enough for the vast majority of extraordinary people.

Not long after, the Great Elder led people to the Heart Washing Pond.

This huge "spring pool" covers an area of ​​several hectares and looks like a small lake.

At this moment, the "testers" sent by various embassy delegations were waiting by the heart-washing pool. These people sat on the ground, demarcating the territory tacitly.

We come from all over the world and are basically familiar with each other. We rely on each other and stay close to each other.

But... there is one exception.

A certain weirdo who was completely inconsistent with his surroundings actually took off his thin floral shirt in public and placed his flip-flops next to the heart-washing pool...

Others were sitting by the pool waiting patiently.

But he was the only one who was naked and soaked in the water.

In the silent heart-washing pool, his voice echoed continuously.

"Is this Mr. Yi from Shangcheng Hongpu Group? My wife and I met you when we went to Zhongzhou to discuss business. Don't you remember? I am Crow!"

"Remember? Let's take a bath together!"

Crow's name used to be very loud.

Everyone knows that this is the number one guard next to Lu Nanzhi. He is extremely capable and symbolizes the appearance of Huazhi Group's force value!

But in the past few years, this name has disappeared, and many people have no memory of it.

But no impression, no impression.

The extraordinary beings from various ambassador groups who came to this heart-washing pool were all people with "sightedness". They could see that this freak who used the heart-washing pool as a bathhouse was extremely powerful.

Countless spirits greeted him.

Without exception, all perceptions failed.

After hearing this, Mr. Yi from the Red Portugal Group waved his hands awkwardly and stepped back.

The area around Song Ci soon became clear and turned into a large open space.

Others would rather squeeze in than be with this guy... Not only because he is strong enough, but also because he keeps talking without stopping!

"Great Elder, you are finally here!"

A heavily armored attendant hurriedly stepped forward.

He had been dissatisfied with Song Ci's behavior for a long time, but the temple's higher-ups had already told him that the big figures who were traveling to the west this time must be treated well and must not be offended.

At the beginning, the Holy Inquisitor also reminded Song Ci that this was not a place for bathing.

But Song Ci just waved his hand and ignored it.

"This Song Ci... actually used the 'Heart Washing Pond' as a bathtub!"

The heavy-armored servant was so angry that he was itching his teeth and said: "Great Elder, this kind of scum is obviously disrespectful to the light. How can we allow him to participate in the fire trial? I beg you to disqualify him from the trial!"

Several trialists around him spoke in agreement.

The great elder fell into silence.

He gently patted the heavily armored servant on the shoulder and said: "I will handle it myself...you can step back."

The fog dissipated, and the Great Elder stepped into the boundary of the Heart Washing Pond. His figure immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The extraordinary beings sent by these missions saluted one after another.

"Everyone, please wait."

The Great Elder glanced at Song Ci and did not stay on Song Ci for even a second. He returned the gift to everyone and said lightly: "Today is the 'Heart Washing Pond's Refining'. The rules are very simple. Everyone, please show your spirit by the Heart Washing Pond. When you touch the water, you can sense the 'Dream of Light'. As long as you can enter a state of tranquility and maintain it for twenty minutes, you have passed this test."

The trial of the Heart Washing Pool is not difficult in the first place.

The temple set up this level of testing to screen out those who disrespected the "light".

The next step is to distribute "Tinder Dreams".

This is an extremely precious resource, and the Church of Light will not hand over the "Dream of Fire" to those extraordinary beings with ulterior motives.

"What are you doing? Don't you need to go into the pool?"

Song Ci muttered after hearing this.

He felt many strange looks coming from all around.

"Great Elder, this pool of water..."

Mr. Yi from the Hongpu Group looked embarrassed. He looked at Song Ci, who was soaking in the pool, and then at the elder.

The implication is already obvious.

Many people showed the same look.

"Mr. Song Ci really has a unique insight. This heart-cleansing trial is difficult to say or easy to say... If you can't resonate with the 'Dream of Light', you can also try to touch the pool water, so that the efficiency of entering the dream will be higher."

The great elder said calmly: "It is recommended not to bathe in the pool. It is said that before Master Shenzuo filled the heart-washing pool, this deep pit was filled with countless disasters and ominousness. Later, He was suppressed only after being watered by the water of the Red Lake. Only those who believe that their fate is hard will do such a thing as soaking in the water of the lake."

As soon as this was said, the crowd suddenly laughed.

"Zhuo! Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"

When Song Ci heard this, his eyes widened in anger.

He immediately climbed up, and bursts of golden glow evaporated from his body, evaporating all the water vapor.

Everyone's laughter gradually subsided, because many of them recognized the golden glow...

This Shenxia is very familiar.

The divine realm of the Douzhan Seat is said to be shrouded in thousands of golden clouds.

The great elder looked twice meaningfully.

This Shenxia means the protection of the God of War.

Over the years, Song Ci hid in Qingzhong Cemetery in order to avoid the guidance of Guangming City's dreams... People in the temple did not dare to set foot in Nagano, so they could only watch.

But now, it's different.

No matter how protected the God of War is, this is still Xizhou!

The Great Elder withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "Everyone, there are some taboos in the Heart Washing Pool trial. You need to remember... If you successfully enter the 'Dream of Light', the appearance will be peaceful. But if you are resistant to the 'Light', Or if you have dirty thoughts, you may be contaminated by the misfortune and ominousness of the 'Heart Washing Pond' after entering the dream."

"If you feel guilty, or feel something is wrong, please stop dreaming immediately and abstain."

"Of course... everything has risks. If it is really contaminated, the temple will not be responsible for it."

After speaking, he glanced around.

After everyone expressed no objections, the Heart Washing Pool trial officially began.

The great elder retreated silently, disappearing into the mist.

…

…

Outside the boundary of the Heart Washing Pond.

The Great Elder was alone, standing in the realm shrouded in a sea of ​​fog. He had been replaced with the fresh blood of the [Undead], and at this moment, his whole body was at its peak state.

only.

It's all false.

He knows very well that as time goes by, his condition will decline rapidly.

The blood of those undead will be contaminated by disasters. My body, which "should have rotted long ago," can only maintain a ray of vitality through constant blood exchange.

The rumors he just mentioned.

It's actually fake.

A deep pit is just a deep pit... Before it became a heart-washing pool, there was never any so-called ominousness or disaster.

But after he "replaced blood", it became available.

His old blood was contaminated with strong "disaster". Even if it was sent into the bodies of the undead, it still couldn't be processed and could only be pressed in the heart-washing pool. The so-called "disaster" was emanating from it. And, every once in a while, the temple will organize some believers to sit in the Xinxin Pond and practice meditation.

Pass through this barrier.

The great elder can see the mental picture of every "quiet person".

In the past, he would find those believers whose "dreams were not pure enough" and send the part of the misfortune that could not be suppressed into the lake of their hearts...

Although there are many disasters, if you give some of them to others, you will have to endure less.

This approach is selfish.

But the Great Elder has no other choice. If he wants to survive, he must exhaust all means.

Being severely corroded by the ominous influence of Pluto is a fatal wound...

Every extra second he lives in this world can be said to be a miracle.

But how can the miracles in this world be so simple?

He is a mortal, and if he wants to create a miracle, he can only rely on this method. The undead he has found in the past are too weak.

In the past twenty years, the only [immortal] he has set his sights on is Meng Xiao.

But Meng Xiao was brought into the light by his stubborn and dull junior brother and became the Holy Son of the temple.

He wanted to lure Fisher into Guangming City, but was blocked by Beizhou.

Fortunately now...

He finally waited for the powerful [Immortal] he had dreamed of.

Although he only took a few glances, the Great Elder was certain that Song Ci's strength, physique, and blood essence were absolutely top-notch!

This is the most powerful [Immortal] he has ever seen in his life!

This time in the Heart Washing Pond, he planned to transfer part of the disaster to Song Ci first to test the depth of this [Immortal].

After the trial, I will slowly look for opportunities...

If Song Ci's "blood" could be sent into his body, he would definitely live for a long time!
