C925 Third Level of the Trial
"This Flaming Stone is a divine stone produced from the Apocalypse Volcano!" Ao Yan said to Qin Yun.
Qin Yun was shocked but did not know that this was the special attention Venerable Redsoul had given him.
"Thank you, Venerable Redsoul." Qin Yun said with great respect. With a flash of inspiration, he kept the fire Spirit Stone into the golden dragon ruyi bracelet.
Venerable Redsoul's beautiful eyes looked at Qin Yun as a smile appeared on his face once again. "Go. I believe you will definitely be able to break through to the third level."
"Thank you very much." Qin Yun's figure flashed as he headed straight for the final gigantic vine leaf.
"What an interesting fellow." Venerable Redsoul said as he looked at Qin Yun.
At this moment, the red-clothed old man from the first level appeared beside Venerable Redsoul.
"Chi Lian, why did you give him the flint stones?" The red-clothed old man smiled at Venerable Redsoul.
"Reporting to the executive elder, I only gave him the flint stone because I thought he might have some attainments in the true intent of fire." Venerable Redsoul said respectfully.
An executive elder. This red-clothed old man was the executive elder of the Crimson Fire God Palace. His status in the Crimson Fire God Palace was much higher than Venerable Redsoul's.
"It looks like I'm going to have to fight with that old bastard Han Xue for the victory. Interesting, haha." The executive elder laughed.
Soon after, his figure disappeared once again.
About three years later, Chenhai and Lang Jingfeng came out of the second level of the exam.
When they learned from Venerable Redsoul that Qin Yun had passed the second level of the trials very early, they were extremely astonished. It had also aroused the fighting spirit in their hearts.
The two of them also headed for the third level of the trial …
Of those who passed the second level, only less than ten percent would choose to enter the third level.
At this moment, Qin Yun stood alone atop the third and last gigantic vine leaf. He overlooked everything below.
The third vine leaf was also enveloped by a layer of immense realms. The things on the vine leaf were very simple. There was no water from the first layer of Xiushan or Lava Purgatory. It was just a huge piece of bare land.
There was not a single blade of grass growing on the ground. Other than the gigantic rocks that could be seen everywhere, there was nothing else.
Qin Yun knew that this level of training ground was definitely not as simple as it looked.
Looking around, he didn't see anyone and didn't see any signs of aura. He then started to float in midair, closing his eyes and recovering the spirit energy that had been used up.
The third floor would face unknown dangers. Only those who were well-prepared would have a higher chance of passing.
About five days later, Qin Yun slowly opened his eyes. However, the surroundings remained dead silent.
"Maybe there's no one on this level at all." Qin Yun muttered to himself as he headed towards the gigantic barrier.
"Swish!" With a sound, Qin Yun's figure instantly disappeared into the barrier.
After entering the barrier, Qin Yun did not feel any suppression on his strength. However, he realized that he could no longer see or hear. He could no longer sense anything from the outside as though he had lost contact with the outside world.
"What's going on? How come there's nothing left! " Qin Yun was alarmed.
He tried his best to spread out his perception, but he was still unable to sense anything. It was as if he was in the void.
However, there was nothing to be seen here. There were no vast stars, no light, and no spiritual energy.
"We'll see." Following that, Qin Yun's figure slowly landed on the ground.
At this moment, a deep voice resounded in Qin Yun's ears. "Congratulations for reaching the final level. The last level is the simplest and also the hardest. It varies from person to person."0
When Qin Yun heard the voice, his face revealed a hint of excitement. After all, he could hear the voice now.
"As long as you land on this piece of land, you will not be able to hear, see, and completely lose your perception … All you have to do is to wait here quietly. " The voice continued.
"It's that simple?" Qin Yun muttered to himself.
"Yes, it's that simple." "Yes," the voice replied.
"Then how long will I stay here?" Qin Yun asked softly.
"Four years." "Yes," the voice replied.
Qin Yun nodded.
"Let me remind you, in a world without anything, it would be very lonely." After the voice finished speaking, it did not speak again.
Qin Yun knew that this final level was probably a mental state trial. If one's mind was not firm, their soul would collapse and die.
"Come on, I'm ready!" Qin Yun roared in his heart.
After that, he started to quietly sit down in the midst of this endless loneliness.
Since he could not even cultivate, Qin Yun chose to recall every single detail of his experiences.
The first day passed quickly. Qin Yun felt that it was quite good. It had been a long time since he had the chance to calm down and reminisce about the past.
Following that, the next day, the third day, and all the way until half a month later, Qin Yun was still reminiscing. Time passed by in a flash.
However, a month later, Qin Yun felt that he was somewhat distracted. However, he continued trying his best to recall the memories. However, he realized that time was running out.
The second month felt like ten years. He did not even know how much time had passed.
In the third month, Qin Yun began counting. From the very beginning, he had been counting. Before the count reached ten million, he could no longer count anymore. He also realized what the voice had said at the beginning: This trial was the easiest but also the hardest.
"This won't do. If this continues, then my soul will surely collapse before five years have passed." Qin Yun thought to himself.
He began to calm down, feeling his heartbeat, feeling the flow of his blood, getting used to this absolute loneliness.
Gradually … He was beginning to get used to this loneliness.
It had to be said that Qin Yun's heart was undoubtedly extremely strong because such loneliness was worse than mere torture. At that moment, Qin Yun felt as though the entire world was void, empty …
"..."
A year had passed and Qin Yun was still sitting there calmly. This calm made Venerable Redsoul, who had been secretly observing, secretly surprised.
"With his Cultivation, for him to be so certain in his heart, even Divine level characters would not be able to do so while he was in the Cultivation."
Venerable Redsoul observed Chen Hai and Lang Jingfeng, who had also entered the third level of the trial. Although the two of them were very calm, it was not difficult for Venerable Redsoul to tell that their qualities were not as good as Qin Yun's.
