A Bug’s Desire To Survive - Chapter 101
While staying in the treatment array to recuperate, the score list on the screen continued to change, but the speed gradually slowed down. Wei He and Yuan Chu fell out of the top ten, while Sang Rong and Qiu Luoshui were in the ranking. constant increase.
Sang Rong’s cultivation base has reached the foundation-building stage, and among the students of the same period, he is considered outstanding. With the help of mid-grade magic weapons, the speed of breaking the formation is a little faster than others. Without Wei He for comparison, the two became the most concerned candidates in the audience. However, as the number of times of breaking the formation increased, the level of the formation increased steadily. The formation that could be broken in a few minutes before may not be broken in ten minutes now.
In the last hour, Wei He and Yuan Chu had already dropped out of the 20th place.
“Okay.” Wei He jumped up from the ground and said energetically, “Let’s break through the formation.”
When the two walked out of the healing formation, the first thing they encountered was a 6th-level civil-engineering double-series formation with a complex formation that had both offense and defense.
“In the beginning, you were by the side to help me form the formation.” Wei He swiped the ground, took out his Xuan Xiao umbrella, and instantly burst into a black flame.
Yuan Chu also sacrificed his own snake hairpin, surrounded by silver lights, waiting quietly.
At the same time, the people watching the battle in the square also found that they had finally left the healing formation and started to act again. Countless eyes turned to their small screens, paying attention to their every move.
“They are already fifty or sixty points behind the first place, can they still catch up?”
“I’m afraid it will be difficult. In the end, it will rush into the top ten at most.”
“That Wei He used to sweep the first-level formations, but he was a paddler at the beginning. Their strength should not be as good as Sang Rong and Qiu Luoshui.”
“They seem to be entering a 7th-level civil-engineering dual formation? Is it too hasty to challenge a 7th-level formation as soon as they come up?”
“I remember that Wei He’s cultivation was only in the late stage of Qi refining. Who gave him the courage to choose a 6th-level formation?”
Just as the spectators were discussing, Wei He had already gone deep into the formation, facing the complex and ever-changing attacks.
The black flames swept wildly, burning out the glow of the dusk, and the world fell into darkness, like hell.
This majestic opening method made the doubters shut up instantly.
“I’m going, this is the strength in the late stage of qi refining? Are you afraid that you are not beating me?”
“Maybe it’s just a bluff?”
“A bluffing move can crack a level 7 formation?”
“What kind of magic weapon is the black umbrella in his hand, it looks very powerful.”
“This is too handsome! I admire it.”
It was also the first time for Wei He to face a level 6 formation, but there was always a feeling in his heart that he could break the formation.
Sure enough, after several trials and groping, he gradually mastered the rules and successfully cracked the formation, scoring 12 points.
Levels 1-3 can get 1-3 points respectively, levels 4-6 can get 8-12 points respectively, level 3 is a stage, and the scores are doubled.
After getting the score of this formation, Wei He and Yuan Chu went to find the next formation.
Soon, a new formation appeared in front of the two of them, but Wei He didn’t stop, and passed by directly.
“Time is running out, all the formations below level 7 are given up.” Wei He explained, “We have to crack at least three formations above level 7 within the remaining dozens of minutes.”
Yuan Chu had no opinion and acted as a navigator without a trace, helping him find a suitable target.
Level 7 Magic Array, Level 7 Soul Locking Array, Level 7 Mirror Array… swept all the way, the score climbed steadily, and it was like a broken bamboo to advance to the top five.
In the case that the rankings of others are rising slowly, two heretics suddenly appear, and it is difficult for people not to notice.
“It’s amazing, I started to choose the 1st-level formation, and now I only choose the 7th-level formation, and it’s so beautiful.”
“Anyway, it’s a 7th-level formation, can you guys restrain yourself a bit, don’t you lose face with the formation?”
“I suspect that my Qi refining period is fake…”
“Am I the only one who thinks that girl is too lucky? Paddled all the way and followed behind to pick up points, it’s so cool, isn’t it?”
“Is this too unfair? The other candidates are stronger than her, but their scores are lower than her.”
“Senior sister Qiuluoshui, who teamed up with Senior Brother Sang Rong, at least participated in the battle, but the original one did not contribute at all.”
“If this is not cheating, then as long as I find a big guy to fly me, I can easily pass the test.”
…
Sang Rong is currently ranked first. He originally thought that the victory was in his hands, but it turned out that Wei He and Yuan Chu were catching up fast, and even had the potential to surpass them, and there was a glint of prey in his eyes.
“They are catching up, what should I do?” Qiu Luoshui said impatiently.
There are only ten minutes left until the end of the exam. If you want to keep the first place, it is best to win an 8th-level formation.
“Remember the Thousand Blades Formation we saw before?” Sang Rong pondered, “As long as I win it, my first place will be stable.”
“That’s an 8th-level formation, can we break it?” Qiu Luoshui hesitated.
Sang Rong clenched the Cang Yue Sword tightly and said decisively, “If it can’t be broken, it will be broken!”
Qiu Luoshui looked at his firm expression, and there was a flash of obsession in his eyes, and the dissatisfaction caused by his unsatisfactory performance disappeared at this moment. The man she was looking for was definitely not a mediocre person.
She took his hand: “I will definitely help you with all my strength.”
“How much time is left?” Wei He asked casually.
Original: “18 minutes.”
“Almost one formation can be broken.” Wei He finished adjusting his breath and looked at Yuan Chu, “Which way to go?”
The trial space is very large. In the absence of map markers, candidates can only try their luck, but in the beginning, they could always find a suitable target in the shortest time, and almost no detours were taken. Maybe it was just a coincidence, or maybe she mastered a certain target. A secret method similar to search and positioning.
Wei He had no intention of exploring, but just let her continue to exert her strengths.
Yuan Chu looked around and stopped in the southwest for a moment, a mysterious feeling rose in his heart.
One mile to the west, you will encounter Sang Rong and Qiu Luoshui, as well as their challenged 8th-level Thousand Blades Formation.
The original dark pupils flashed a stream of light, and the air was drawn, seeing what she had foreseen, and knowing what she had foreseen.
Sang Rong will break the Thousand Blades Array at the last moment, get 24 points, and firmly stand first.
Even if Wei He breaks another level 7 formation, he will lose to Sang Rong by one point, missing the prize of Qi Gathering Pill.
Yuan Chu turned to the south again, two miles away from them, there was a level 9 water binding formation, which might be an opportunity for Wei He to win, or it might be his crisis.
“What’s wrong?” Wei He’s voice sounded in his ears, interrupting his original thoughts.
Yuan Chu looked at him: “Do you want to win first?”
Wei He: “The first one seems to be Sang Rong now?”
“Yes.”
“Then this first, I have to decide.”
Yuan Chu didn’t say any more, tiptoe a little, and swept away toward the south.
Wei He followed closely.
But after a few breaths, the two came to a large formation.
There is a lake in the array, surrounded by mountains and rocks, the water mist is lingering, and an icy air blows straight to the door.
“This is…” Wei He’s eyes flashed with surprise.
“Level 9 water binding formation.”
Level 9?
Although Wei He accumulated a lot of experience and improved a lot of strength in the process of cracking the 7th-level formation, the reason why he was able to break the formation quickly was mainly because his fire attribute and Xuanxiao Umbrella had great explosive power.
If it is level 8, he may still have the confidence to fight, but level 9? And is it a 9th-level water binding formation with his attributes? Wei He didn’t dare to ask for a big one.
“Come in?” Yuan Chu asked.
“Enter!”
Cultivation is to go against the sky, and only when you face difficulties in adversity can you grow.
Wei He no longer hesitated, as soon as the Xuanxiao umbrella opened, he rushed into the formation without hesitation.
The people watching the battle exclaimed and looked at the two people on the screen in disbelief.
They actually wanted to challenge the level 9 water binding formation?
The Water Binding Array is one of the few advanced formations in the Destruction Trial Space, and its initial level is level 9. For students in the later stage of Foundation Establishment and below, it is an existence that is difficult to break through.
These two people, where did the confidence come from, dare to use the cultivation base of the refining stage to break through the 9th-level formation?
“Are they floating??”
“It’s just courting death! If you fail to break into a formation below level 8, you will at most be injured and withdraw, but a level 9 formation will kill them in minutes.”
“It’s up to them how long they can hold on.”
“I bet they won’t last three minutes.”
“At most 3 and a half minutes, it can’t be longer.”
…
Wei He and Yuan Chu didn’t notice the outside discussion.
After they entered the formation, they were immediately wrapped in clouds of water mist and felt resistance from all directions, making it difficult for them to stretch their limbs.
Xuan Xiao Umbrella spit out flames, expressing a strong resistance to this environment.
Wei He opened the Xuanxiao umbrella, resisting the resistance of the outside world, while looking for the formation eye.
At this moment, the surrounding scene suddenly changed, and the originally stable space suddenly turned upside down. Like a big wave, Wei He was lifted several dozen meters away, and he couldn’t even stand up.
“Come on!” Wei He shouted in a low voice, the flames rising all over his body, pushing the giant waves away, creating a protective barrier for himself.
However, this barrier only lasted for 3 seconds before it shattered.
With monstrous strength, the water waves rushed towards Wei He, as if to shatter him.
Facing this seemingly boundless force of nature, Wei He felt powerless for the first time. The fire attribute mana was greatly reduced in the water binding formation, and even the Xuanxiao umbrella was suppressed, and its power could not be exerted.
A huge force continued to impact his body. It seemed that there was no trauma on the surface, but the internal organs and internal organs were severely injured.
Wei He endured the pain and calmly looked for life.
At this moment, a beam of silver light flashed past his eyes and disappeared into the mist.
That’s… the original snake hairpin.
Wei He’s heart froze, and he chased in the direction where the snake hairpin disappeared without even thinking about it.
Originally it should be outside the formation, why did her magic weapon appear here?
Did she join in too?
Wei He was anxious and tried his best to rush forward, but he only traveled a few dozen meters.
The resistance around him was too great, making him in a dilemma.
He knew he had to calm down, but he couldn’t calm down as long as he thought that the original might be in danger.
When he was anxious, the familiar silver light appeared again, swam like a snake in the surging water waves, took advantage of the situation, overcame the obstacles, and came to his side.
The silver snake circled around him a few times, and the flashing light was like the eyes of the man, watching him with concern.
Wei He’s restless heart calmed down in an instant.
After the little snake circled for a few times, it rushed towards the surging water waves and disappeared into the hazy water mist in the blink of an eye.
If Wei He realized something, he slowly restrained his breath, gave up resistance, and let himself go with the flow.
Sure enough, the resistance from the outside world became smaller. Although he lost the mana support, he felt very uncomfortable, but his body could move with the flow.
Pulled by the current, he swam little by little in the direction where the snake hairpin disappeared. A huge force slammed into his body from time to time, and he took it down abruptly.
In the face of the 9th-level formation, he has no strength to break through, and can only look for opportunities to counterattack with his broken body.
found it!
Array of eyes!
In the center of the whirlpool, like a giant beast that chooses people to eat, it exudes a powerful aura.
Wei He calmed down, clenched the umbrella handle, and slowly approached the array eye.
The mana turned and the flames ignited. Wei He looked at the silver snake floating quietly above the eyes of the formation. Ling Ran’s air burst out from his eyes…
“What does he want?”
“Isn’t it because you want to make a desperate move and make a big move against the 9th-level formation?”
“He’s dying??? Don’t know that once he launches an attack, the formation will be completely stimulated?”
“Teacher, should we send him out immediately?”
“Doesn’t he know that the girl is also in the formation? If the formation is stimulated, the girl will not be spared.”
“I’m a little afraid to watch…”
The black flames condensed into arrows, broke the water waves, formed a huge fan shape, and rushed to the formation eye with a decisive momentum.
At the same time, the formation’s qi machine was disturbed, and the huge waves rose into the sky, like two beasts grabbing, attacking from both sides, and pounced on Wei He in the middle.
Seeing that he was about to be swallowed up, a beam of silver light burst out of the air, making a roaring sound. In the next second, the huge wave in mid-air started from the top of the wave, frozen layer by layer, making a crackling sound, and in the blink of an eye, the entire space was frozen into a silver-white world.
boom!
Wei He’s full-strength strike reached the formation’s eye, and a huge explosion sounded. The solid formation’s eye was instantly shattered and burned to ashes by the black flames.
The eyes of the formation were broken, and the silver-white world collapsed suddenly, turning into countless icicles, scattered from the air, as beautiful as a picture scroll.
Wei He spit out a mouthful of blood, and slowly walked into a slender figure in his hazy vision.
The spectators were stunned, but in just one minute, such a reversal occurred.
“Fuck, what happened just now?”
“Frozen the giant waves? This is so cheating!!!”
“I was wrong, it turns out that the girl is the real boss!”
“The 9th-level water binding formation was broken by them like this???”
“They refreshed my understanding of the Qi refining period again and again…”
There was a commotion in the square, and everyone showed incredible expressions.
On the other side, Sang Rong and Qiu Luoshui also broke through the Thousand Blades Formation. Although the mana is almost exhausted, everything is worth it, and his first place is finally stable.
Sang Rong wiped away the blood stains from the corners of his mouth, and a smile that was inevitable appeared on his face.
At this moment, the sound of drums sounded in the air, announcing the end of the second exam.
Sang Rong and Qiu Luoshui were teleported out, and what they heard was a deafening cheer.
Sang Rong had a smile on his lips, and stood up straight, ready to receive praise from others. However, everyone around turned a blind eye to him, and all looked in one direction. There stood two men and women who were surrounded by stars, and they were Wei He and Yuan Chu.
The smile on Sang Rong’s face froze, what’s going on? Isn’t he the first?
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the screen, Wei He’s name took the first place in a grand manner.
impossible!
He had just broken through an 8th-level formation. In any case, Wei He could not have scored a higher score than him.
“It’s amazing, it actually broke through the 9th-level formation.”
An exclamation sounded into Sang Rong’s ears.
What? Rank 9? ? ?
Wei He broke a level 9 formation?
Isn’t he in the late stage of Qi refining?
What is the concept of the 9th-level formation, even the cultivators in the late stage of Foundation Establishment dare not say that they will be able to break through it.
How did Wei He do it?
Sang Rong looked at Wei He who was surrounded by everyone in disbelief, and his whole body froze.
“So Wei He is so powerful?” Qiu Luoshui muttered to himself.
Sang Rong turned his head and saw that she was looking at Wei He admiringly, completely forgetting that there was someone standing beside her.
Sang Rong clenched his fists, his eyes burning with anger.
Qiu Luoshui in the previous life looked at Wei He with this kind of eyes, and did not change his infatuation with him. I thought this life would be different, but it turned out to be the same!
He hated it to the extreme, and his eyes were full of resentment when he looked at Wei He.
Those adoration and admiration should belong to him, what kind of thing is Wei He! He will definitely ruin his reputation and never get ahead!
The darkness is born from this, and the devil is born from this.
The invigilator released the coercion to maintain order and announced that the exam would be rested for an hour to prepare for the third exam.
Wei He took Yuan Chu to the lounge and asked with a heavy face, “Are you alright?”
“It’s alright.” Yuan Chu sat down cross-legged and looked at him with a smile.
“You still have injuries on your body. That last spell should have used up all your mana, right?” Wei He took out a bottle from his pocket and poured out a healing pill for her.
Originally looked at the medicinal pill in the palm of his hand, and was speechless. Someone seriously injured seems to need more treatment than her bug.
“Use it yourself.” She handed the medicinal pill back to him.
“You can use it for you, I still have it!” Wei He said in a wicked voice.
Yuan Chu spread out his hands: “Then show me the bottle.”
Wei He quickly grabbed the bottle and said coldly, “Why should I give you my bottle? Isn’t one pill not enough for you? Don’t be too greedy!”
Yuan Chu: I know that you have no pills in your poor bottle, you don’t have to hide it…
