If she couldn't comprehend a True Meaning in three months, she would die.
Logically speaking, the Star and Moon should die here.
However, she still had a chance to live.
Strictly speaking, she had already comprehended the True Meaning of Xuanyin, but she had entered a state of madness and couldn't stabilize herself.
Therefore, she had passed the third test, but she couldn't leave this place.
She wanted to use the complete rules here to suppress the True Meaning of Xuanyin in her body.
She could only leave this place after she had completely grasped the True Meaning of Xuanyin. Otherwise, she would die.
"Xuanyin Evil Body is indeed powerful." The half-beast man sighed.
If it wasn't for the Xuanyin Evil Body, it would be impossible for her to comprehend the True Meaning of Xuanyin.
In the Five Elements Academy, in the tenth area, Xiao Fang and the others were stopped by Jin Yuanliang and were scolding them.
"I heard that you are Fang Chen's good friends." Jin Yuanliang's face was filled with a sinister smile as he said disdainfully.
"Jin Yuanliang, you are ranked thirty-five on the Battle Tablet. Why are you bullying us?" Xiao Fang asked.
"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being Fang Chen's good friends. Fang Chen is a coward, he has been hiding in Elder Han's mountain for half a year and hasn't come out. I can only find you." Jin Yuanliang grinned.
Jin Yuanliang was a disciple of the Saint Master of the Pill Cloud Sect. He had been looking for Fang Chen and wanted to challenge Fang Chen.
However, Fang Chen hadn't appeared for half a year, which made Jin Yuanliang very angry.
Therefore, he turned his attention to Xiao Fang and the others.
"Kneel on the ground and say that Fang Chen is a coward, then I will let you go." Jin Yuanliang said.
Hearing his words, Xiao Fang and the others' faces changed and they looked at Jin Yuanliang angrily.
"Hmph, impossible." Qing Jingtong said.
"Bang!"
With a loud sound, Qing Jingtong's body was sent flying by Jin Yuanliang.
Qing Jingtong fell on the ground and spat out blood. His face was pale.
Jin Yuanliang was too strong, he couldn't resist at all.
"You have no choice." Jin Yuanliang said.
"Speak."
Jin Yuanliang's scolding was useless.
A soldier would rather be killed than humiliated.
Xiao Fang and the others stood there quietly, enduring the pressure from Jin Yuanliang's aura.
Xiao Fang stared at Jin Yuanliang and said coldly, "Jin Yuanliang, you will suffer retribution for doing this sooner or later."
"Retribution, hahaha."
Jin Yuanliang laughed out loud and kicked Xiao Fang away.
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Jin Yuanliang looked at He Jingwei.
"Bah!" He Jingwei spat at Jin Yuanliang.
This action completely infuriated Jin Yuan Liang. The latter's face turned gloomy. He grabbed He Jingwei's arm and pulled with all his might, breaking He Jingwei's arm.
"Ah!"
He Jingwei let out a miserable shriek. However, his eyes were filled with rage. He wouldn't compromise, nor would he submit.
"Kneel!"
Roared Jin Yuan Liang furiously. He kicked He Jingwei's knee, making him unable to stand and kneel on the ground.
"You three trash dare to oppose me?! If it weren't for the Five Elements Academy forbidding killing fellow disciples, you'd all be dead!" roared Jin Yuan Liang.
At this time, on a certain mountain peak.
Fang Chen had just left the mountain peak where the Heavenly Pass was located. He hurriedly went to another mountain peak.
He was preparing to go find Elder Han, but coincidentally, he ran into a student.
"Yes, Fang Chen."
Seeing Fang Chen, that student's expression changed slightly. His pupils constricted, and he wanted to say something, but stopped.
Fang Chen saw that and immediately asked, "Brother, do you have something to say to me?"
"Fang Chen, Jin Yuanliang is looking for you. You should hurry back to Elder Han's mountain peak," reminded the student.
"Jin Yuanliang is looking for me?" asked Fang Chen.
"For the past half year, you've always been on Elder Han's mountain peak. Jin Yuanliang couldn't do anything to you, so he took his anger out on your friends."
"If my guess is correct, he should be in the tenth region of the Theoretical Peak right now."
Fang Chen's heart sank. His figure flashed, and he rushed to the tenth region of the Theoretical Peak.
"If anything happens to Jin Yuanliang, Xiao Fang, and the others, I won't let you off!" roared Fang Chen inside.
With Fang Chen's current speed, he arrived at the Theoretical Peak in the blink of an eye. He then appeared at the edge of the tenth region.
He just happened to see Jin Yuanliang cut off He Jingwei's arm and kick his knee, forcing him to kneel.
"You trash." Jin Yuanliang sinisterly laughed when he saw the three of them being suppressed.
"Jin Yuanliang, Fang Chen won't let you off!" Xiao Fang roared in pain.
It would have been better if he hadn't said anything. Once he mentioned Fang Chen, Jin Yuanliang became angry. He suddenly looked at Xiao Fang and stretched out his hand.
Pa pa pa
Red fingerprints appeared on Xiao Fang's face.
Facing this extreme humiliation, Xiao Fang and the others were furious, but there was nothing they could do.
"Jin Yuanliang!"
Fang Chen roared angrily as he walked step by step toward the tenth region.
The sudden voice shocked many of the students.
Immediately, they turned their heads to look.
When they saw Fang Chen appear, they were all stunned.
"Fang Chen, you're finally willing to show up?" Jin Yuanliang laughed sinisterly.
Fang Chen looked at the three of them apologetically, then looked angrily at Jin Yuanliang. He said in a low voice, "Do you dare to accept a life-and-death battle on the martial arts stage?"
Fang Chen's voice was as deafening as thunder.
Seeing this, Jin Yuanliang sneered and said, "Why not?"
"See you on the martial arts stage at this time tomorrow."
After finishing his words, Fang Chen turned and walked toward Xiao Fang and the others.
He returned to the Sword-hidden Peak with the three of them.
Looking at Fang Chen's back, Jin Yuanliang sneered.
A life-and-death battle between students must be approved by the higher-ups of the academy.
After Fang Chen left, Jin Yuanliang went to apply for a life-and-death battle.
The news of Fang Chen's return also reached Elder Han's ears.
When Elder Han learned about it, he was very excited.
"He's back!"
Fang Chen came back safely, which meant that he had passed the third level.
"He comprehended the Gist of Trueness."
Five months later, Fang Chen returned safely.
Elder Han couldn't wait to come to the Sword-hidden Peak.
"Fang Chen." Elder Han saw Fang Chen and was very excited.
"Elder Han," Fang Chen said.
"Fang Chen, you have comprehended the Essence of Truth?" Elder Han asked.
Fang Chen nodded and didn't hide it.
"Hahaha, you are indeed the genius that I chose." Elder Han laughed excitedly.
Fang Chen only briefly explained what happened in the Heaven's Gate, and Elder Han didn't ask for details.
After chatting for a while, Elder Han also knew that Fang Chen's strength had improved a lot.
Now, he was not afraid even if he faced a Lv 8 Spiritual Vortex Realm martial artist.
This was the strength of a martial artist who had comprehended the Essence of Truth.
"Fang Chen, your current strength is enough to be in the top ten of the Battle Power Tablet, or even the top five." Elder Han said.
Fang Chen didn't care about the ranking of the Battle Power Tablet, but he cared about Xiao Fang and the others.
"Elder Han, can you treat them?" Fang Chen asked.
"Of course." Elder Han agreed.
With Elder Han's strength of the Real Martial Arts Realm, it was easy to treat the three of them.
Even if He Jingwei's arm was broken and his knee was shattered, he would be able to recover.
In a short while, Elder Han stabilized the three people's injuries.
"The three of them need a long time to recover from their injuries." Elder Han said.
"Thank you, Elder Han." Fang Chen thanked him.
"Fang Chen, you and Jin Yuanliang issued a Life-and-Death Challenge?" Elder Han waved his hand and asked.
"That's right, Jin Yuanliang is too much." Fang Chen said.
Elder Han nodded and said, "With your current status, even if you kill Jin Yuanliang, it's fine. However, if you do that, people will gossip.
I have already informed the higher ups of the school to approve your application for the Life-and-Death Challenge. "
Elder Han's meaning was obvious. For Fang Chen, it was nothing to give up Jin Yuanliang.
Jin Yuanliang was destined to be cannon fodder.
At this moment, in the Saint Master Pill Cloud's courtyard.
Jin Yuanliang stood there quietly. His face was pale as he looked at the Saint Master.
In front of the Saint Master Pill Cloud, Jin Yuanliang could not remain calm. The Saint Master's aura made Jin Yuanliang feel pressured.
"Saint Master, tomorrow I will have a Life-and-Death Challenge with Fang Chen." Jin Yuanliang said.
"Are you confident?" Saint Master Pill Cloud asked.
"I am confident." Jin Yuanliang said.
Saint Master Pill Cloud took out an Eight Trigrams Plate and handed it to Jin Yuanliang. He said, "Take this. If Fang Chen sets up a formation, pour your spiritual energy into the Eight Trigrams Plate and you will be able to break the formation."
Without the formation, Fang Chen would not be able to defeat Jin Yuanliang at all.
Saint Master Pill Cloud had put in a lot of effort in order to kill Fang Chen.
"Don't worry, Saint Master. I will not let you down." Jin Yuanliang put away the Eight Trigrams Plate and said excitedly.
Jin Yuanliang was very happy to be entrusted with such an important task by the Saint Master.
If he could kill Fang Chen, the Saint Master would make an exception and take him as an unofficial disciple.
The status of the Saint Master's unofficial disciple was not something an ordinary warrior could compare with.
"Alright, you can go now." Saint Master Pill Cloud waved his hand and said.
After Jin Yuanliang left, a black shadow appeared in Saint Master Pill Cloud's courtyard.
"Saint Master, will you be going to the battle tomorrow?" The black shadow asked.
"The bone warrior and Dan Qing will definitely be there. Of course I will be there." Saint Master Pill Cloud said.
Saint Master Pill Cloud looked at the black shadow and said, "Hu Jinlong, with your strength, you will definitely be in the top three of the Battle Power Tablet. Do you know why I asked you to hide your strength?"
"I don't know." The black shadow, Hu Jinlong, said.
"Go, cultivate well." Saint Master Pill Cloud did not answer Hu Jinlong's question. He waved his hand and said with a smile.
Hu Jinlong nodded and left the mountain peak.
In the eyes of others, Hu Jinlong was only a student who was ranked tenth on the Battle Power Tablet. Although he was strong, he was not strong enough to be proud of.
However, no one would have thought that the person behind Hu Jinlong was Saint Master Pill Cloud.
Moreover, Hu Jinlong had been hiding his strength from the very beginning.
Although Hu Jinlong did not know why Saint Master Pill Cloud wanted him to hide his strength.
However, he had no choice but to listen.
Without Saint Master Pill Cloud, he would not be who he was today.
Saint Master Pill Cloud could make Hu Jinlong, but he could also destroy Hu Jinlong.
With his strength, he could only listen to Saint Master Pill Cloud's words and work for him.
