In the dense forests surrounding Heartbreak Valley, the nest of the snake, the nest of the insect, and the nest of the ant, all of them seemed to have been pulled by an inexplicable force towards the entrance of the valley where Xu Zongyi and the rest were.

Xu Zhengdao and Xu Xindie knew nothing about this.

But this time, the two of them did not dare to be careless since it was clear that they were going to do more training. Especially the momentum from the beginning, it was enough to prove everything.

The wall of fire had long since been extinguished, and the powder that sprinkled down had also dispersed with the wind.

Although it was daytime, the bonfire was still burning.

Pails of kerosene were prepared on the side. Corrupt ants were indeed not easy to deal with. They were small in size and had fast movements. Once they wrapped around a person, they would madly bite and bite. If they couldn't break free, they would die without a doubt.

Every one of its legs was covered in barbed spikes that were able to dig into one's skin. Its mouth was sharp and was suffused with toxins.

Even though Xu Zhengdao and Xu Xindie were heaven's pride experts, they did not dare to underestimate their opponent.

Today, it was Xu Xindie's turn to stand guard. She sat cross-legged, and when she heard the sound, she frowned slightly. Her expression suddenly changed, and she shouted, "Pour fire oil on her."

All of the disciples guarding the valley threw the oil of fire they had prepared forward in all directions.

Sure enough, half an hour later, a large number of rotten ants came rushing over.

Xu Xindie took out a handful of fire and threw it on the ground.

Whoosh!

The flame burned fiercely, and the wall of fire once again blocked those rotten ants.

Tsssssss …

The sound of crackling could be heard one after another.

However, even though this was the case, there were still Corrupt Ants that charged forward at all costs.

"The situation isn't right. In the past, these rotten ants wouldn't do such a thing." Xu Zhengdao frowned. He realized that this time, the rotten ants were different. They were about the size of a fist. "Looks like stronger rotten ants are coming out."

"Could something have happened?" Xu Xindie also felt the same way. Suddenly, she seemed to sense something, "Oh no, the Flaming Snake has also come. This time is not normal."

"Everyone be careful, all the female disciples retreat!" Xu Zhengdao gave the order.

Every Fire Scale Snake that had entered the Qi Drawing Realm possessed at least two thousand points of strength.

The male disciples of the Winter Court were already in the Qi Drawing Realm, coupled with their innate talent, they were around two thousand or so.

Fortunately, they were able to form a sword formation to attack.

"Wind, Thunder, Rain, Snow, Cloud!"

The background of these five disciples from the Winter Court was not small. Each of them cultivated a sword technique and each changed.

Once the five of them joined forces, even Xu Zhengdao, who was covered in Qi, would not dare to underestimate them.

Puff!

The Fire Scale Snake that had barged into the sword formation was instantly cut into six pieces, blood spurting everywhere.

"Do you really think we're vegetarians?" One by one, the women from the Spring Festival Gym, Summer Nurturing Courtyard, and Autumn Battling Courtyard also made their moves.

The five courtyards were originally one.

Spring, summer, autumn, winter, day and night, each have their own special points.

But that did not mean that female disciples could not fight.

However, other than the fact that most of the girls were obsessed with Xu Zhengdao, the main reason why they were willing to come here was because they too wanted to be tested and their strength would not be weak.

"Bait them." With Xu Xindie's order, dozens of jars filled with honey were thrown out of the wall of fire.

One after another, the sound of the jar shattering rang out and honey splattered out.

The swarm of rotten ants charged toward the honey like crazy, but very soon, they stopped moving.

This was because the honey was highly toxic, and was especially used to kill insects. Even so, there were still many rotten ants that crashed into the wall of fire.

After the rot ants were burnt to a crisp, the sap that splattered out of their bodies was able to affect the flame a little.

However, the number of these rotten ants was enough, the effect could be imagined.

Because the wall of fire was quickly worn down, other disciples had to pour out more fire oil to increase the intensity of the fire.

A huge number of Fire Scale Snakes rushed in. Their powers were all at the Qi Drawing Realm, crazily attacking everyone.

"What's going on? Are all these strange beasts crazy?" Xu Zhengdao waved the Skyfrost Sword in his hand, and the ice condensed from the natural powers appeared out of nowhere. It was extremely sharp, and as it shot out, it sliced the Flaming Snake into dozens of pieces.

The dagger in Xu Xindie's hand danced again as a spring breeze blew.

Although they looked weak and weak, their killing power was extremely powerful. Tens of Blazing Scale Snakes of the Qi Drawing Realm were cut into countless pieces.

The wind helped the fire, causing the wall of fire to whoosh and burn.

Ah!" At this moment, a woman from the Xia Family Hospital was bitten on the arm by the Flaming Snake, and her sharp teeth directly pierced through her arm.

Xu Zhengdao used his sword to slice open the head of the Fiery-Scaled Snake, then pulled the woman backwards.

"Quick, eat the antidote." Xu Xindie hurriedly shouted.

"Be careful!" As soon as Xu Xindie was careless, a Flaming Snake flew over.

Xu Zongyi slashed out with his foolish sword from behind.

Pow!

The snake's head exploded, blood spurting out as it let out a miserable shriek.

Xu Xindie waved the dagger in her hand lightly, and a gentle breeze blew. More than ten Flaming Snake's were cut into dozens of pieces, falling to the ground and twisting instinctively.

The girl quickly retreated. A female disciple from the Spring Life Courtyard quickly bandaged her wound and fed her the Fiery-Scaled Serpent's poison.

However, she wouldn't be able to move for a short period of time.

From early in the morning until the afternoon.

Only then did the attack stop. There were snake corpses and many dead ants on the ground.

From front to back, there were twelve injured people, and Xu Xindie had personally treated them with medicine.

The five boys from Winter Court had formed a formation, and they had a tacit understanding with each other. Although they weren't injured, they were barely able to lift their swords, which consumed too much of their strength.

During their great battle, Xiao E had already started cooking. She cooked the leftover Fiery-Scaled Snake meat and the Purple-rank Body Strengthening Rice.

"You guys eat first …" Xu Zongyi looked at everyone.

"It's only the second day. What will happen next?" There was an injured female disciple from the Summer Palace who had a serious expression on her face.

"Everyone recuperate first. If you really can't hold on any longer, you can go back. It's no big deal." Xu Xindie said solemnly.

"Don't be discouraged. Although there are a lot of Fierce Beasts, we also have quite a few achievement points on us. When the time comes, can we still have quite a few good things?" Xu Zhengdao had the strongest killing power, and he was on par with Xu Xindie.

The other five were boys from the Winter Court, followed by Xu Zongyi.

Xu Zongyi's expression turned grave as he looked at the already somewhat weak wall of fire. It was only at this moment that he realized just how terrifying these snake-worm and rat ants were.

"This can't go on." Xu Zongyi looked at the forest in front of him.

"What do you want?" Xu Zhengdao was covered in blood, and his fighting spirit was strong.

"I want to capture the thief and the king first. I want to burn the nest of those rotten ants and destroy the nest of those Fiery-Scaled Serpents." Xu Zongyi was extremely serious.

"It's too difficult to find such a huge forest. Even if we can find it, there are a lot of them so we can't kill them all. We will plant ourselves in the forest outside of the Heart Rejuvenation Valley and not only these things, there are even more terrifying existences." Xu Zhengdao wanted to do the same, but in the dense forest, there were hundreds and thousands of ants and fire scaled snakes' nests.

"Is there no other choice but to stay here?" Xu Zongyi felt a bit stifled. It seemed that the reason for this trial was to suppress them.

"Other than that, we have no other choice. Unless we admit defeat of our own volition, the trial will be over." Xu Zhengdao nodded.

"…" Xu Zongyi took a deep breath, "The two of you should rest well. I'll guard them for now. Let them heal their injuries first."

"Yes." Xu Zhengdao also felt a bit exhausted, and fortunately, there weren't a large number of Fiery-Scaled Serpents around him today. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to deal with them.

Xu Xindie was there to treat all of the injured disciples. In addition, she also instructed Xiao E and the rest of the injured disciples to tidy up the battlefield.

Many of the carrion ants and the corpse of the Flaming Snake were mixed together, mixing with the herbs and mixing with the water, watering the grass.

"Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night." Xu Xindie felt that this test was too strange.

In the past, there wouldn't be so many Scaled Snakes at the Qi Drawing Realm, and even more so, Rotten Ants wouldn't be so crazy as to use their own bodies to attack the wall of fire.

Sure enough, before anyone could even rest, another surprise attack began.

All of them were Fiery-Scaled Snakes that could draw qi into their bones.

Xu Zongyi stood guard at the very front. He calmed his heart as he recalled everything that had been recorded in the《 Life in All Things》.

From his skin to his muscles, he was cultivating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. He thought about the habits and weaknesses of this Fiery-Scaled Serpent. It had skills to hit seven inches, and every time it would be randomly thrown around, not only consuming his own strength, but also affecting his efficiency.

Only those who knew themselves and knew their enemies could survive a hundred battles.

A Flaming Scaled Snake flew through the air, and Xu Zongyi could feel its body swaying as he seized the opportunity. Leaping into the air, he slashed his sword seven inches away.

That strike had caused its scales to burst apart, and blood and gore to spurt out from its body. It fell to the ground, motionless.

"As expected!"

That night, Xu Zongyi's attack targets were extremely precise. Every single time the stupid sword in his hand struck a vital point of the Fire Scaled Snake, knocking it out unconscious, and even killing it.

Exhausted a great deal of physical strength, in actual combat, he understood the true meaning of《 Life from All Things》, causing his strength to once again increase. This made Xu Zongyi realize that if he wanted to improve himself, he could only stimulate his potential to the greatest extent under the pressure of actual combat.

The Foolish Sword in his hand seemed to be able to absorb and emit some of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, making him feel that this sword was not simple.

He revolved his entire body, but he did not cultivate any techniques. He just moved according to his instincts, and as he waved the stupid sword, he used up a large amount of his blood and Qi, forcing the sweat and impurities out of his body until daybreak.

Xu Zongyi's strength had already risen to three thousand five hundred jin, causing his entire body to tremble from hunger. One must know that this was already comparable to the strength of some people who had just entered the body.

Luckily, Xiao E had already cooked a big pot of Flaming Snake Meat and Purple grade Body Strengthening Rice. Xu Xindie saw him grow and sighed: "Once this trial is over, I'll have to use the Bone Ablutionary Grass to remove the impurities in my body. It'll give me quite the boost."

That night, three more disciples were bitten by Fiery-Scaled Serpents.

Xu Xindie had baited them in advance, causing countless ants to die within the honey. Combined with the wall of fire, they would be safe for the time being.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

The attacks of the Fiery-Scaled Serpent and the Rotten Ant almost always happened during the daytime and at night.

During this period of time, Xu Zongyi's strength had risen tremendously, breaking through to the strength of 4000 jin.

Xu Yueshen frowned while watching from the side: "Drawing in the Qi into the flesh, has a strength of four thousand?" "Looks like we can't go on like this."

The other disciples also had significant increases in strength.

Under such high pressure, everyone was able to unleash an unprecedented potential in times of crisis.

The five male disciples in the Winter Court had already reached the Large Success Realm of Qi Drawing, with a strength of 2300. The key point was that their understanding and usage of formations had improved by leaps and bounds.

The other female disciples also had breakthroughs. Although Xiao E didn't fight, she arranged everything in a neat and orderly manner. She did not stop when it came to watering the grass. She did all sorts of chores, letting them do whatever they wanted.

"Why are you still paying attention to the Spirit Gathering Grass at this time?" Xu Zongyi asked, a little confused.

"It's one thing to compare achievement points, but if we can maintain the level of the Spirit Gathering Grass at the same time, we can also increase the grade of these Spirit Gathering Grass. At that time, we can also count them and they will also be our bargaining chip." Xu Xindie had comprehended a part of the Water Melting Grand Ceremony. During these seven days, she had nurtured the entire land where the Mind Gathering Grass was located, causing it to be abnormally fertile and then watering the water she brought along.

Xu Zongyi came to a realization after hearing this as he hurriedly asked, "How much can I get?"

"To transform from Red Rank to Orange Rank, how many points can be obtained from ten thousand of each stalk?" Double stack for each level! " Xu Xindie smiled.

It looked like he couldn't let go of the effects of the Spirit Gathering Grass. His current strength was inferior to theirs, but if he were to plant one now, he would still have a considerable advantage.

"That's right, Miss Xindie, what is the history of the sword in my hand?" Xu Zongyi had been using this sword for a few days already, and he was starting to get the feeling that something was amiss.

"My ancestor told me a story a long time ago about someone trying to move a part of Taihang Mountains so that it could lead to Wangwu Mountain and other paths. Otherwise, the road would be too difficult, and it would be difficult for them to leave the mountain." He relied on his own perseverance to cultivate to an extraordinary realm, and is called the fool by others. This sword was left behind by him, and it is said that in the Qi Drawing Realm, those who can use this sword will be able to unleash twice the power, and at the same time be able to make people stand firm in their resolve. Although you have trained in the supremacy of cultivation, if you are able to coordinate with him, your fighting strength will definitely rise greatly, and when you return to the Scripture Hall, you should be able to use a different attacking technique to cultivate.

Right now, Xu Zongyi was at a disadvantage because he was relying on his own physical strength.

"So that's how it is …" Xu Zongyi came to a realization that he liked the stupid sword even more. At the very least, it was very suitable for him at the moment.

At this moment, a voice sounded.

"I have bad news to tell you all, I'm afraid we will lose this trial." Xu Zhengdao finished what he was doing. His expression was serious, unwilling to give up.
