Chapter 2025: Right on Target

After Ye Liuyun was ready, the gravity in the room began to grow stronger.

He was still assessing which setting the current gravity reading corresponded to from his previous training.

When Mao Hongyin raised the gravity to the fifth setting and saw Ye Liuyun still sitting upright, he was already pleased.

"Good seed! Even the Physical Body is this strong!"

Disciples who can pass this setting are basically those who have entered the Holy Son selection.

These disciples who have been training at Profound Heaven Sect since youth, compared with Ye Liuyun who has spent years fighting abroad, naturally have no basis for comparison.

It wasn't until Mao Hongyin raised the gravity to the sixth setting that Ye Liuyun began to feel some strain.

The powerful gravity pressing on him made even keeping his spine straight now somewhat difficult.

"Truly worthy of Profound Heaven Sect's entrance test; such strong gravity still doesn't meet the qualifying standard!"

Ye Liuyun was still reflecting inwardly.

He prided himself that his Physical Body should already be strong within the Fifth and Sixth Layer Realms.

If even he feels strained, then ordinary Martial Cultivators should already be unable to endure it.

Ye Liuyun's guess was correct; even First Holy Son Murong Tian, under this gravity pressure, was not as composed as Ye Liuyun.

Mao Hongyin, delighted, continued to raise the gravity to the seventh setting.

Murong Tian, at the moment the gravity reached the seventh setting, could no longer hold himself and collapsed to the ground.

But Ye Liuyun only lowered his head slightly, bent his waist a bit more, and was not crushed outright.

Mao Hongyin suppressed his excitement, kept his hand moving, and continued to increase the gravity.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun could no longer think about the test; he was simply giving his all to withstand the pressure.

By the final stage of the seventh setting, Ye Liuyun's body had already begun to tremble slightly!

"Is my Physical Body untrained for so long and regressed?"

"Or is Profound Heaven Sect's requirement too high?"

Mao Hongyin never told him he had passed, and Ye Liuyun now began to doubt in his heart.

Mao Hongyin then directly raised the gravity to the eighth setting.

Ye Liuyun's waist was instantly pressed down.

He also thrust his hands onto the ground, preventing himself from collapsing.

"Hold on! If I can't even pass the test, that would be too shameful!"

Ye Liuyun gritted his teeth and persisted.

Mao Hongyin also dared not raise the gravity further, fearing it would cause trouble for Ye Liuyun.

But he still wanted to see Ye Liuyun's reaction, to gauge his perseverance.

So he kept the gravity unchanged for the time being.

Ye Liuyun also noticed that the gravity was no longer increasing.

"Could it be testing how long I can endure?"

He also dared not relax.

He continued to push through stubbornly.

He held on for a full quarter hour before Mao Hongyin satisfactorily reduced the gravity.

Ye Liuyun, feeling relieved, straightened his waist, stood up, and stretched his body.

"Being able to endure the pressure of the eighth layer, and even when facing Seventh Layer strong opponents it's hard to be killed! At the fifth setting I could already stand up and move—how was this Physical Body cultivated?"

Mao Hongyin was astonished in his heart.

But he could not show it, fearing Ye Liuyun would see through him and he would no longer try so hard to impress.

This excited feeling, unable to release, made his face turn bright red.

After reducing the gravity, he immediately ran off, let out a few hearty laughs, and then returned to find Ye Liuyun.

"Not bad, not bad, your performance is better than that of ordinary disciples! This stage is considered passed!"

After returning, Mao Hongyin said to Ye Liuyun.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun felt embarrassed inside.

"Profound Heaven Sect's disciples are this strong; they will be a formidable opponent in the future!"

If it weren't for his unfamiliarity with this place, he would have immediately wanted to place a Slave Seal on Mao Hongyin.

But he thought about it and decided not to rush.

These academy elders and disciples usually do not wear artifacts that defend against Spiritual Soul Attacks, so he will have plenty of opportunities later.

Seeing Ye Liuyun's somewhat gloomy expression, Mao Hongyin also chuckled inwardly.

"Giving him a setback is fine; it can boost his motivation for future cultivation!"

Mao Hongyin then told Ye Liuyun, "The third test is a real battle against Foreign Tribe opponents of the same realm."

"A real battle against Foreign Tribe?"

"There's a Foreign Tribe here?"

Upon hearing that he must battle a Foreign Tribe, Ye Liuyun was greatly startled.

"It's not a real Foreign Tribe. They're formed from spiritual energy! Yet their strength is genuine! Persist as much as you can, and see how many Foreign Tribe you can kill!"

It was formed from spiritual Qi! But its power is certainly not fake! Hold on as long as you can, and see how many Foreign Tribe you can kill!

"Oh!"

Ye Liuyun finally relaxed.

Moreover, the Foreign Tribe are evolved from True Essence, so he was even less worried.

Moreover, the Foreign Tribes are all evolved from True Essence, so he is even less worried.

Using the Primordial Spirit Secret Technique, he could directly eliminate the Foreign Tribe evolved from spirit qi.

Mao Hongyin again brought Ye Liuyun to a special Grand Hall, pointing at a stone outside and saying to Ye Liuyun: "After the Grand Hall's door is closed, Foreign Tribe evolved from spirit qi will come out."

However many Foreign Tribe you kill, that stone will display the number.

Try to kill as many as possible.

The spirit qi there is very pure.

For each Foreign Tribe you kill, that spirit qi will replenish you!

Ye Liuyun was about to ask whether the spirit qi inside could be absorbed.

Hearing Mao Hongyin say that, it was exactly what he wanted, so he naturally agreed repeatedly to try to kill as many as possible.

Mao Hongyin handed Ye Liuyun a token, urging Ye Liuyun: "Your time inside is not limited."

When you can't fight anymore, press this token once, and those Foreign Tribe will disappear, and the Grand Hall's door will open automatically.

Never push yourself too hard; don't get yourself killed.

No one in there will come to rescue you!

The storage space inside cannot be opened, so you can only hang this token around your neck or hold it in your hand.

Any weapons, armor, and treasures you need to use must also be taken out beforehand.

When Ye Liuyun had just finished the gravity test and Mao Hongyin went out laughing, he had already put the gilded armor back on.

Thus, he merely took out a sixth-rank sword as a precaution.

That token was also hung by Ye Liuyun around his neck and placed inside his clothing to prevent loss.

Seeing that he was ready, Mao Hongyin let him enter the Grand Hall.

After the Grand Hall's door closed, he stared at the large stone outside the Grand Hall.

Soon, the number one appeared on it.

"Instant kill?"

Mao Hongyin was somewhat surprised.

But what followed surprised him even more.

The number quickly became three.

Inside, each time Ye Liuyun killed a Foreign Tribe, an extra enemy would be added for the next round, so Ye Liuyun ended up fighting more and more as he killed.

But at this moment he felt completely at ease.

He didn't use a sword at all; instead, while practicing the Primordial Spirit Secret Technique, he blew up the Foreign Tribe evolved from spirit qi and absorbed that spirit qi to cultivate.

This spirit qi was indeed very pure.

Ye Liuyun hardly needed to convert it; he could directly turn it into True Essence.

At this time, his clone was also inside the Xuan Kong Shi, cultivating together with Ye Liuyun, compressing and condensing Mysterious Origin.

When Ye Liuyun had killed over thirty, Mao Hongyin finally couldn't hold back and rushed off to report to the Sect Master.

Indeed, Ye Liuyun's combat power was too strong, frightening him.

Ordinary inner sect disciples, when fighting Foreign Tribe of the same realm, being able to take on ten is already quite excellent.

Ye Liuyun not only killed many, but also fast; almost all were instantly killed as soon as they appeared.
