384: C384 The Second Test

C384 The Second Test

Qi Zhuohao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. No wonder... If the Iron Heart Black Bamboo could make a warrior's mind become abnormally firm and powerful, then the geniuses and warriors of the many provinces in Wuze Region wouldn't go to Great Desolate Ghost Cave to temper their minds!

Putting aside his disappointment, Qi Zhuohao turned his head and looked at Luo Hao. His eyes instantly shrunk. At this moment, Luo Hao actually cut open a two-inch deep hole in the Iron Heart Black Bamboo. In three days, Luo Hao would definitely cut that Iron Heart Black Bamboo into pieces!

"Am I destined to lose to Luo Hao?" Qi Zhuohao was very anxious. If this continued, he would definitely lose. Each of the three trials was very important. Losing the first match would mean losing the initiative to win the trial. This was not the result Qi Zhuohao wanted to see. He had to think of a way. He could not. He had to lose!

Luo Hao couldn't help shaking his head when he felt Qi Zhuohao's anxious gaze. It was really tiring to cut down Black Bamboo, but it was worth it. Not only could he temper his mind, but he could also do it. Qi Zhuohao's speed of cutting the Iron Heart Black Bamboo... Too slow!

"What should we do?" Qi Zhuohao became more and more anxious. He felt Luo Hao's disdain for him. If this continued, he would not need to continue cutting the Iron Heart Black Bamboo. He was destined to lose to Luo Hao.

Nangong Yumo looked at Qi Zhuohao's worried face and felt anxious for him in her heart. She also felt a bit happy and complicated. It was the first test. She should be happy that Qi Zhuohao would definitely lose to Luo Hao, but she didn't want to see Qi Zhuohao looking dejected.

Qi Zhuohao continued to hack at the Iron Heart Black Bamboo as he thought of a way to cut the Iron Heart Black Bamboo in a short period of time. Suddenly, his heart moved. He could not use essence energy, but he still had strength!

Heartforce had many uses. For example, using heartforce to support an artifact. It could increase the durability of an artifact. The iron cleaver in his hand could not even reach the Mortal Rank. However, once it was enhanced with heartforce, it could definitely be used as an ordinary weapon.

When he thought of this, Qi Zhuohao's heart was filled with excitement. He had almost forgotten that he had heartforce in his body. Using heartforce to support the iron cleaver did not violate the rules of the test. His chopping speed was far inferior to Luo Hao's, so he could only start from this aspect.

While feeling excited, Qi Zhuohao immediately used his heartforce. As expected, when the ethereal heartforce was added to the iron cleaver, the toughness of the iron cleaver rose steadily, and finally reached the degree of toughness comparable to a middle-grade mortal weapon.

Qi Zhuohao was incomparably delighted. The iron cleaver had gained the support of heartforce and became the same as a middle-grade mortal weapon. Qi Zhuohao could increase the strength of his physical body. With his current strength, he could use at least 30% of his strength to use the chopping knife to slash the Iron Heart Black Bamboo!

With his current state of mind, Qi Zhuohao decisively increased his strength. The chopping knife landed on the Iron Heart Black Bamboo. Qi Zhuohao was very satisfied. When his strength increased to 30%, the machete's damage to the Iron Heart Black Bamboo increased by a terrifying amount!

"Haha! Luo Hao, you want to beat me? Dream on!" Qi Zhuohao kept chopping the Iron Heart Black Bamboo with all his might, while sighing in his heart. With this kind of effect, he would be able to cut off an Iron Heart Black Bamboo in less than two hours.

"Yi! Every blade of Qi Zhuohao's can actually leave behind a tiny opening on the Iron Heart Black Bamboo. Could it be that he used essence energy? Impossible! His strength has increased so much, how can the machete withstand it?"

The woman said to Nangong Yumo in surprise. Her voice was very loud. Not far away, Luo Hao and the three Essence Incarnating Expert supervising Luo Hao couldn't help looking over.

As expected, the fragments of the Iron Heart Black Bamboo flew in the air and followed Qi Zhuohao's crazy hacking. The opening on the Iron Heart Black Bamboo became bigger and bigger. The speed at which he hacked and slashed at the Iron Heart Black Bamboo quickly surpassed Luo Hao's. This caused everyone to be very surprised and puzzled!

The increase in strength caused Qi Zhuohao to slash out with every slash. It was comparable to Luo Hao's tens of thousands of slashes. His speed was not as fast as Luo Hao's. However, this disadvantage had disappeared after the enhancement in his heart. At most, he would be able to cut off an Iron Heart Black Bamboo in two hours. As for Luo Hao? He would need two days and three days.

Everyone was dumbfounded. They were all geniuses, and they could feel the Qi of heartforce very quickly. They suddenly realized that Qi Zhuohao didn't try to trick them. Instead, he added heartforce to the machete. This was the reason why he was able to cut bamboo at such an astonishing speed.

As the Iron Heart Black Bamboo broke and fell to the ground, Nangong Yumo and the other three shook their heads and sighed helplessly. Qi Zhuohao did not violate the rules. The situation had already turned around. Luo Hao didn't have the strength to fight. Obviously, he wouldn't be able to defeat Qi Zhuohao.

Nangong Yumo and the others still didn't understand. It was said that he had used his strength to enhance the weapon. It consumed a lot of heartforce, and Qi Zhuohao could actually use it for more than an hour. How strong was the heartforce in Qi Zhuohao's body, and how majestic was it?

"Qi Zhuohao, I have to admit that you are really a genius. I actually forgot about heartforce. I have lost this competition!"

Luo Hao sighed with a depressed expression. They had all forgotten about the fact that Qi Zhuohao had heartforce. Qi Zhuohao had already cut off an Iron Heart Black Bamboo, and it would take him at least two more days to cut off this Iron Heart Black Bamboo. There was no point in continuing the competition, because Luo Hao knew in his heart. When he cut off this Iron Heart Black Bamboo, how many of them had Qi Zhuohao cut off?

"Luo Hao, you admitted defeat so quickly? Don't you want to continue the competition? "Qi Zhuohao asked plainly. He was fighting back the provocation and ridicule Luo Hao had given him at the beginning.

Hearing this, Luo Hao snorted coldly and said, "Qi Zhuohao, you have the strength to fight. This is your good luck. There are still two more tests left. Our competition has just begun. Don't be so proud of yourself. The one who loses will only be you in the end. "

Although Luo Hao said so, he was very unwilling in his heart. He had lost the first round of the test, and he couldn't afford to lose the next two rounds of the test. Otherwise, he would lose to Qi Zhuohao in the theory examination. Therefore... Therefore, he was very worried about the test after that.

"Luo Hao, luck is also a part of strength. You should know this very well. I will accompany you to the end of the next two tests!"

When he heard Qi Zhuohao's incomparably firm counterattack, Luo Hao coldly harrumphed once more. After that, he threw down his machete and left. He had no strength left. He wouldn't be able to defeat Qi Zhuohao even if he continued to compete. If he lost, he would lose. It was good that he won the next two matches. It wasn't shameful at all.

Luo Hao gave up the competition and left. Qi Zhuohao naturally couldn't be bothered to continue chopping the Iron Heart Black Bamboo. He had used up about seventy percent of his strength. He needed to recover as soon as possible so that he could deal with the second round of the test.

"Qi Zhuohao, you have won this test. Luo Hao has already left. Let's return to Jade Line Palace as well!"

Nangong Yumo reminded him and Qi Zhuohao returned to the Jade Line Palace with them. Nangong Bojie and Nangong Yudia were still in the Jade Line Palace. When they saw Qi Zhuohao and his group return, was the test over?

Confused, Nangong Bojie immediately opened his mouth to ask. When he heard her, Nangong Yumo immediately cut off an Iron Heart Black Bamboo from Qi Zhuohao. Luo Hao knew that he couldn't defeat Qi Zhuohao, so he gave up on the first test and told her the result.2

Hearing this, Nangong Bojie's face darkened slightly. He had also forgotten about the fact that Qi Zhuohao had mental strength. Only Nangong Yudia's heart was very calm. She asked Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao to cut down the Iron Heart Black Bamboo. She had thought about it carefully. Luckily, she hid it from Nangong Bojie. Now that the first test had ended, even if Nangong Bojie knew that he had been fooled, there was nothing he could do about it.

Sure enough, Nangong Yudia immediately knew when she felt Nangong Bojie's angry gaze. Nangong Bojie had already understood that she had secretly helped Qi Zhuohao. She felt very helpless. In the first test, she had planned for Qi Zhuohao to win. However, in the second round of the test, he could not help Qi Zhuohao. He could only rely on his own ability.

"Qi Zhuohao, congratulations on winning the first test, but don't celebrate too early. You will definitely lose to Luo Hao in the second test." Nangong Bojie said faintly, then turned to look at Luo Hao. "Luo Hao, you do not have the strength to fight. It is normal for you to lose to Qi Zhuohao in the first round. You have to work hard in the next two tests!"

Nangong Bojie did not want to care about whether the first test was fair or not. It was decided by him and Nangong Yudia together. This was Nangong Yudia's plan and Qi Zhuohao's luck. He and Luo Hao had no right to blame Nangong Yudia and Qi Zhuohao.

In the following test, Qi Zhuohao's heartforce and Desolate Force would not be of any use. Let's see how Qi Zhuohao could defeat Luo Hao.

"Father-in-law, please rest assured. I am confident!" Luo Hao replied. He could not lose anymore. He hoped that Qi Zhuohao would not be able to exert his strength in the second and third test.

Nangong Bojie nodded slightly when he heard Luo Hao's reply, which was full of fighting spirit. He said, "Originally, the second test would only start three days later. However, since the first test ended so quickly, the second test would start early. The second round of the test will begin in two hours! "

After pausing for a moment, Nangong Bojie continued," Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao, the second test is to refine Indifferent Pill. I have already prepared the medicinal ingredients to refine the Indifferent Pill for all of you. But... I have mixed the ingredients to refine the Indifferent Pill into a mess of herbs. All of you must rely on your own understanding of alchemy. To differentiate the herbs needed to refine the Indifferent Pill, the time limit is still three days. Whoever refines the Indifferent Pill first will be the winner. "

When Nangong Bojie said this, it was not only Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao. Didn't this mean... This test of Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao was equivalent to creating their own Medicinal Pill, and the truth was much more difficult than this!

The Indifferent Pill refinement method had long been lost in the annals of history. Nangong Bojie happened to have the Indifferent Pill refinement method in his hands. However, he did not pass the refinement method to Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao. Instead, he let Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao figure out how to refine the ___ themselves. This was something that was virtually impossible to accomplish. After all... Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao only had three days' time, and they didn't know what the medicinal ingredients for refining the Indifferent Pill were.

"What the heck, this Nangong Bojie is really scheming! He can even think of this kind of test method!" Qi Zhuohao sighed with emotion. If it was a self-created Medicinal Pill, Qi Zhuohao was confident that he would be able to succeed in three days' time. He only needed to keep trying, but he needed to create a Medicinal Pill that had already been developed by his predecessors. And without any reference, this was as difficult as ascending to the heavens!

Similarly, Luo Hao's heart was also suffering. Although he was a genius alchemist, the Luo family of Qincang did not have the refining method for Indifferent Pill. This test was a huge challenge to him. Perhaps, he wouldn't be able to succeed in this test.

"The first test is already very difficult. This second test is much harder than the first one. I wonder what the third test will be? The difficulty must not be lower than the second test! " Luo Hao sighed in his heart and smiled bitterly.
