Chapter 75 Can't get out
After walking for a while, Xiang Nan finally ran out of energy and sat down under a tree.
He weighed the Demon Origin Fruit in his hand and was a little reluctant to eat it.
This fruit itself had the function of nourishing the meridians, stabilizing the foundation of the martial arts, and restoring one's strength to heal one's injuries.
Normally, if one ate it, one would be able to increase one's martial arts realm by a portion. If one ate it in conjunction with the instant one's cultivation realm increased, then one would be able to display the maximum effect of the Demon Origin Fruit.
One had to know that very few pills that could be seen on the market could directly raise the martial arts realm. This made the Demon Origin Fruit even more precious.
Xiang Nan reluctantly put the Demon Origin Fruit into his storage ring, took out a second-grade Rejuvenation Pill, and muttered to himself, "Right now, there is no sign of breaking through the bottleneck in my realm. I'll eat the Demon Origin Fruit when I break through."
The Tier 2 Rejuvenation Pill was also a treasure of great tonification. When a pill entered his stomach, the warm medicinal power instantly spread to his limbs and bones, causing Xiang Nan to let out a long and comfortable cry.
He had eaten the Spring Restoration Pill many times in the past, but never before had he drank a ladle of cold spring water as cheerful as this one, as if he was about to die of thirst.
"Eh … as expected, the weaker the pill is, the more effective it will be." Xiang Nan leaned against the tree trunk and stretched lazily. He felt his eyelids heavy and he felt somewhat sleepy.
A few high- highly intense battles had exhausted his body.
At this moment, countless wounds on his body and the cracks on his bones were being repaired by the Rejuvenation Pill at an extremely fast rate, especially the recovery rate of the dense wounds on his body's surface, which were visible to the naked eye.
Raising his head, he looked at the sky. The sun had already begun to tilt towards the west. It was estimated that nearly seven hours had passed.
According to the distance he had seen on the flying ship earlier, he had only walked half way.
"No way. If we continue at this speed, it will probably take 14 hours to reach the second examination room." Xiang Nan frowned deeply, hoping that the journey would be smoother.
After that, he leaned against the tree and rested for almost an hour before he felt full of energy again. The injuries on his body had also recovered by seventy-seven to eighty-eight percent. Only then did he continue on his journey with a whip on his horse.
At this time, eight hours had passed since the city selection began.
At this moment, a loud bell-like voice suddenly sounded from the flying ship, "Congratulations to the disciples of the Mo Clan in Bluestone City and Bluestone Town, Mo Hai. With eight hours of good results, you successfully passed the first examination hall and gained ten points."
As soon as this voice appeared, the 299 contestants were stunned at the same time.
"So fast!" One of the contestants exclaimed, "As expected of Mo Hai! He really was the first to arrive at the second examination hall!"
The second examination room.
"Huh? Is this the second examination room?" Mo Hai walked out of his own passageway. In front of him was an extremely wide-open area.
This open space was enormous. It was about two thousand meters in diameter. Each of the light cages that were locked with demonic beasts stood in a forest. At first glance, these cages were arranged in a circular arrangement, one ring at a time.
Mo Hai walked straight to the end of the second examination hall and discovered that there was actually a door on the light wall. There was a lock on the door, and there was a round hole in the lock.
"Lock?" Mo Hai frowned and looked back. Suddenly, he found a statue of a fountain carved out of stone at the core of the cages.
The fountain statue looked like a lion. There was a round hole on the lion's forehead, and there was a faint glow in the hole.
Mo Hai took out his own brand and nodded, "I see."
He walked forward and poked his brand into the round hole in the lion's head. At this moment, the brand began to shine.
Another voice appeared in the sky, "Congratulations to Bluestone City, Cai Clan disciples, and Cai Jianyun for arriving at the second examination hall in eight hours and ten minutes. Increase by ten points."
"Mo Hai." As soon as Cai Jianyun walked out, he smiled and said, "I've risked my life, but I'm still ten minutes behind you. Right, what are you doing?"
Mo Hai said, "To enter the third exam hall, we have to unlock it. I found that we need to use a famous brand to place it inside the lion's head and charge it with spiritual energy."
Cai Jianyun crossed the layers of light cages and arrived at the fountain. He wondered, "Almost your entire arm is in! If a demonic beast comes out of the cage at this time, it would be very bad."
"Yes." Mo Hai smiled, "But it doesn't matter. We don't need to deal with these demonic beasts."
Just as he was speaking, a crisp ding sound came from the lion's head. Mo Hai took out the name plate. The name plate had already begun to shine. He said, "I calculated that it would take about a minute from the beginning to the end of charging."
"Then I'll come too." Cai Jianyun also put the name tag in.
After both of them had been recharged, they went together to open the light wall leading to the third examination hall.
It was also discovered that this wall of light could only accommodate one person at a time. In other words, everyone had to recharge their own brand names.
Flying ship.
"Senior Brother Xiaoyun." A disciple of the Chihuo Sect whispered, "Look at Xiang Nan. He is much stronger than we imagined. If this continues, even if he will waste some time, he will still be able to enter the second examination hall, right?"
An imperceptible sneer flashed across Wang Xiaoyun's face. He lowered his voice and said, "How can it be so easy for him, Xiang Nan, to pass the first examination? Watch the show."
The first examination room, the 300th passageway.
Xiang Nan, who had regained his vitality, sprinted forward as fast as he could. The more he lagged behind, the less points he would gain.
From the looks of it, it was basically impossible to arrive at the second examination hall within ten hours.
"Eh? Something's wrong." Xiang Nan frowned. He looked at the scenery in front of him and said, "Am I being paranoid? I think I've already been to this place once."
The Black Sharp Demon Forest's environment was complex, and there weren't many iconic sceneries that could be used to observe.
However, Xiang Nan had always maintained a high degree of vigilance as he walked through the Origin Returning Passage. This was also the reason why he discovered that something was amiss.
With a puzzled expression on his face, he continued to charge out and quickly advanced.
About an hour later, another voice came from the flying ship. Wang Jingyun and Li Qingchuan of the Wang Clan arrived at the second examination hall with good results in third and fourth place respectively.
On Xiang Nan's side.
Xiang Nan frowned and stared at the scenery in front of him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Indeed, I did not see wrongly! After walking for an hour, I actually returned here!"
In nearly two and a half hours, he had already seen the same scenery for the third time.
"Could it be that my sense of direction is too bad?" Xiang Nan raised his head to look at the sun and locked onto the direction before moving forward.
Forty minutes later, he returned to his original location!
"How could this be!" Xiang Nan's heart thumped. The tenth hour had arrived!
During this period of time, a few more outstanding contestants arrived at the second examination hall.
However, Xiang Nan was still trapped here!
Xiang Nan began to feel anxious, "Right, I can move horizontally and stick to the wall of light! This way, there won't be any detours, right?"
He walked a distance horizontally and found the wall of light on the far left. He continued to walk along the wall of light.
Forty minutes later, Xiang Nan's face sank like water.
In front of him was the same environment as before!
