Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 388: Narrow Road of Enemies (12)

Several days later.

Outside.

The high-level members of the Holy Land were all attentively watching the projection.

As the trial approached its end, more than two-thirds of the disciples had been eliminated.

At this moment, the Holy Lord, who was in the pavilion, projected a leaderboard that displayed the rankings of the participants in terms of their distance from the mountaintop, from closest to farthest.

First place: Wutang, Ruan Xuanming.

Second place: Futang, Meng Shuan.

Third place: Wutang, Bai Jingda.

Fourth place: Wutang, Qu Jiaqing.

Fifth place: Dantang, Ji Yuyang.

And so on...

"In this trial, the disciples from Wutang have a significant advantage, with three of them in the top five," the Hall Master of the Refining Hall sighed.

After speaking, he shook his head and lamented, "Sigh, unlike the disciples of my Refining Hall, their strength has greatly declined because they can't use Law Weapons due to the loss of spiritual power. Relying solely on physical strength is a big disadvantage."

The Hall Master of the Formation Hall also sighed, "Yes, the disciples from Wutang, Futang, and Dantang have a significant advantage. This trial for the newcomers seems to have been tailor-made for these three halls."

The people from the Law Enforcement Hall laughed, "It's just a trial for newcomers, not a trial for Hall Masters. Whether it's fair or not, let's just enjoy the show."

On the other side, the Hall Master of Hundred Flower Hall, Hua Xuanyin, and the Hall Master of Qianye Hall, Zhu Yange, were both staring at the projection of Chen An.

Zhu Yange was also watching because he wanted to find an opportunity to mock Hua Xuanyin.

As they watched, Hua Xuanyin's expression suddenly changed.

She saw the scene she least wanted to see: Chen An had encountered the three disciples from Qianye Hall!

It's over!

A narrow road for enemies!

She knew that she would definitely be mocked by that despicable Zhu Yange again later!

Hua Xuanyin was in agony.

However, Zhu Yange was even more despicable than she had imagined. Before the three disciples from Qianye Hall eliminated Chen An, he had already started mocking him.

"Hall Master Hua, what a coincidence. Your only disciple from Hundred Flower Hall has encountered the three disciples from my Qianye Hall," Zhu Yange said, tauntingly.

"It seems like your only disciple's strength is a bit weak. Should the three disciples from my Qianye Hall give your disciple from Hundred Flower Hall some guidance?" he continued.

"Hall Master Hua, why aren't you saying anything?"

Zhu Yange kept talking nonstop in Hua Xuanyin's ear, his tone filled with malice.

Hua Xuanyin clenched her fists and endured, thinking that after the trial ended, she would sneak attack Zhu Yange and teach this despicable person a lesson.

...

Inside the trial grounds.

Chen An swiftly ascended towards the mountaintop.

Suddenly, he noticed a new light spot in his sea of consciousness.

With a thought, his consciousness lightly touched it.

In the next moment, a leaderboard unfolded from his sea of consciousness.

It was the same leaderboard that the Holy Lord had projected.

Chen An glanced at it and saw that the three disciples from Wutang were all ranked in the top five.

He couldn't help but feel amazed. The trial grounds had a natural sealing effect, which was a huge advantage for Wutang.

Similarly, Dantang and Futang also had significant advantages.

One could use poison, while the other could use talismans, both of which didn't require the consumption of spiritual power.

On the other hand, the Refining Hall didn't have such an advantage.

Using Law Weapons required the infusion of spiritual power, unlike talismans, which could be prepared in advance and then used.

Chen An looked at his own ranking and, as expected, he was at the bottom.

He wasn't surprised by this.

In the past half month, he had been hunting demons and monsters at the foot of the mountain, falling far behind many others.

He quickly put away the leaderboard and increased his speed, rushing towards the mountaintop.

He was worried that he would be late and someone else would reach the flag first.

After running for a while, he saw three familiar figures not far away.

They were the three disciples from Qianye Hall.

Two men and one woman.

The one leading is a female cultivator in purple robes.

At this moment, all three of them look a bit disheveled, clearly having gone through numerous battles along the way.

Perhaps with demons.

Perhaps with disciples from other sects.

Not intending to pay any attention to these three people, they continue to maintain their speed and rush past them.

Sensing the commotion behind them, all three of them stop and turn around to look.

When they see that the person approaching is Chen An, all three of them show a hint of surprise on their faces.

What's going on?

How can a weakling from Hundred Flower Hall make it to this position?

How did he manage to do it?

Chen An notices the strange expressions on their faces, but doesn't pay too much attention to it. He simply tries to pass by them quietly.

However, he doesn't want any trouble, but others do.

The female cultivator in purple robes, who is leading, immediately steps to the side and blocks his way.

"Fellow Daoist from Hundred Flower Hall, are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated?"

The female cultivator in purple robes says with a smile, but her smile is a bit cold, sending a chill down one's spine.

The two male cultivators beside her quickly surround Chen An, not giving him a chance to escape.

Chen An calmly looks at the three of them and asks in a flat tone:

"Do you want to become Rogue Cultivators?"

"Rogue Cultivators?"

The female cultivator in purple robes also smiles, with a disdainful expression on her face. "You're overestimating yourself. Do you have anything valuable on you that's worth us robbing you?"

After saying that, she smirks and continues, "Fellow Daoist from Hundred Flower Hall, if you admit that Hundred Flower Hall is inferior to Qianye Hall, not only can we let you go, but we can also help you make further progress in this newcomer trial and achieve better results."

They're targeting me like this, it must be because of the grudge between Qianye Hall and Hundred Flower Hall... Chen An thinks to himself.

With that thought, he doesn't waste any more words and directly throws a punch at the three of them.

Then, a loud "boom" is heard!

The ground trembles.

The earth cracks.

Dust fills the air.

Nothing can be seen.

Soon, a figure swiftly emerges from the dust.

It is Chen An, who just threw the punch.

At this moment, he is rapidly ascending towards the mountaintop.

Shortly after his figure disappears, the dust in the air gradually dissipates.

In its place, there is a deep pit on the ground.

It seems bottomless.

At least a hundred meters deep.

The edge of the pit is filled with terrifying cracks, as if it could collapse at any moment.

As for the three from Qianye Hall, they are nowhere to be found.

...

Outside.

The three disciples from Qianye Hall who were just surrounding Chen An in the trial grounds are now standing in a teleportation array, all wearing confused expressions, still trying to figure out what just happened.

"What's going on? How did we suddenly get teleported out of the trial grounds?"

"It seems like we were hit by a punch from that person from Hundred Flower Hall, and it triggered the protective effect of the teleportation talisman."

"This, how is that possible? Wasn't it said that all three members of Hundred Flower Hall are only at the early stage of True Immortal? How could that person defeat us with just one punch?"

"..."

These three disciples from Qianye Hall all have a look of doubt on their faces.

Especially when they see that their protective Law Weapons are all covered in cracks and damages, the look of doubt on their faces instantly turns into fear.

If it weren't for the protection of the teleportation talisman, they would probably have been smashed to death by Chen An's punch, dying on the spot.
