So what! Are you going to kill me?

Xie Sheng couldn't help but be moved when he saw these young disciples gradually gaining fighting spirit.

He said loudly: "Very good! I believe that no matter what the result of this assessment is, you will all grow."

“Remember, courage is not the absence of fear, but the choice to move forward in the face of fear!”

The disciples responded in unison, their voices resounding through the sky: "We will follow the elder's teachings!"

The day of the inner gate assessment.

Xie Sheng reiterated the precautions once again, and with his order, a huge teleportation array flashed in the void.

The light of the array was dazzling and illusory, and the shadows inside were blurry and vague.

The other end of the teleportation array is connected to the dangerous fantasy world of Exile.

The disciples were on full alert, and under the watchful eyes of the elders, they slowly stepped into the teleportation array.

The light instantly engulfed them, and the figures of the disciples gradually blurred and disappeared.

The light dissipated, and all the sect's disciples were randomly thrown into the illusion.

The scene before them made everyone gasp.

There are no blue sky or white clouds here, only a dark gray sky, and everything is shrouded in thick haze.

The wind howled, bringing with it a biting chill and a sickening smell of decay.

The ground was a barren expanse of scorched earth, with dry cracks like wounds on the earth, and black smoke rising from the cracks from time to time.

In the distance, strangely shaped mountains stand abruptly, with jagged rocks on them, as if they were twisted by some huge force.

The land seemed to be covered with sores, with huge caves rising up one after another. Thick fog filled the cave entrances and creepy sounds could be heard faintly.

The surrounding vegetation had long since withered, leaving only some dry branches, like desperate hands reaching toward the sky.

The miasma that permeates the air is condensed from the resentment of the undead. Even if you inhale just a trace of it, the things you fear most in your heart will occupy your entire mind, and your heart and lungs will feel like they are occupied by countless madly gnawing ants, causing unbearable pain.

A huge black bird flew over Jin Cancan's head and let out a sharp cry.

Jin Cancan frowned as he looked at the sticky swamp under his feet, his whole body slowly sinking.

Her luck was bad, as the location she was teleported to was the center of a huge swamp.

The spiritual energy in her body seemed to be frozen and was very sluggish, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Jin Cancan had tetanus, and she had a hunch that there must be something dirty in the swamp.

The muddy water in the swamp was bubbling constantly and emitting a disgusting smell.

Although she didn't see anything, Jin Cancan felt a chill down her spine and her hair stood on end. Her keen intuition was sending out warnings. She followed her instinct and rolled suddenly. A fallen species shaped like a strange fish suddenly jumped out of the swamp, opened its huge mouth and bit madly at the place where she was originally standing!

Jin Cancan's eyes flashed, and the cold light of Tetanus Blade in his hand flashed, and a sharp sword energy slashed directly at the monster.

There was only a sharp scream like that of a baby, and the Fallen Species was hit by the sword energy. The whole fish body was instantly split in half, black blood spurted out, and the minced meat exploded, stirring up a foul-smelling smoke.

The strong ominous atmosphere did not dissipate, but became even stronger.

The scream of the fish-like fallen creature seemed to be just a signal, and the originally calm swamp suddenly became boiling.

Countless fish-shaped falling species came from all directions. They shuttled through the mud, causing turbid waves and surrounding the golden creature.

Jin Cancan's heart was beating like a drum and she became a little excited.

She clenched the Tetanus sword tightly in both hands, the spiritual energy in her body circulated wildly, and the sword shone brightly.

Faced with the surging swarm of fallen creatures, she did not retreat but advanced.

With a flick of the golden sword energy, the group of fallen species closest to her were neatly cut in half, causing them to let out eardrum-shaking screams.

One of them jumped up from the swamp and rushed straight towards Jin Cancan's face. She raised her sword and accurately stabbed it into its open bloody mouth. The fallen creature twisted its body in pain, but its red eyes were still staring at her, and it twisted its fins to try to get close to her.

Two more Fallen Beings attacked from behind. Jin Cancan reacted extremely quickly. His spiritual energy surged, and with a beautiful sword flower, he sent one of them flying. At the same time, he swept the long sword and cut the other one into two pieces.

Outside the secret realm, several elders and Xie Sheng were watching the battle through the mirror platform, all of them with frowned brows and worried looks in their eyes.

They didn't dare to breathe, nor did they blink.

This is so dangerous!

The name of this kind of fallen species is tail-eating fish. They are not very dangerous and are only classified as the fifth grade. Converted into the human realm, they are only considered to be in the Qi Refining Stage.

But they travel in groups, are ferocious by nature, and are extremely difficult to deal with. They often go crazy for no reason and kill each other, devouring the tails of their own kind in the chaos, hence their name.

If you only encounter a small group of fish, it would be a bit tricky, but if you encounter a huge school of fish, it means that there is a king fish with a danger factor as high as level three!

The strength of the Tail-Eating Fish King can be regarded as the peak of the Golden Core realm for human cultivators, and the difficulty of killing it ranks among the top three in the entire illusion.

Jin Cancan's luck is so bad that she ran into him as soon as she came in!

It seems that there is no end to the fish, as their numbers are increasing. They keep coming one after another, without any fear of death.

Jin Cancan sank deeper and deeper into the swamp, and it was difficult for him to escape and get ashore under such an intensive siege.

She was somewhat powerless, and her movements slowed down for a second, resulting in multiple wounds appearing on her body!

Jin Cancan inserted the Tetanus into the swamp, and a powerful spiritual energy surged out from the sword, instantly forming a huge spiritual power shock wave, which shook all the surrounding tail-eating fish away.

A strange frequency came from the depths of the swamp. These fish seemed to have received instructions. They adjusted their bodies in the air in an instant and pounced towards Jincan again with their huge mouths opened.

Jin Cancan frowned, and spiritual energy continued to be poured into the long sword. The light on the sword became brighter and brighter, as if to illuminate this dark swamp. She gritted her teeth and ordered: "Tetanus, take me out!"

The sword hummed, and she grasped the hilt tightly, instantly escaping from the swamp and pulling out half of her body that was stuck in the mud.

Her body was as fast as lightning, and she moved freely among the schools of tail-eating fish. Every time she swung her sword, she would take away the heads of countless tail-eating fish.

The strange frequency came again, and the attack of the fishtail fish became more and more crazy. It even seemed to be intelligent and wanted to trip her and knock her into the swamp.

Her golden clothes had long been soaked with blood and mud, and the spiritual energy in her body was somewhat disordered due to excessive use. She did not even have time to catch her breath and flew to the shore in one go.

She fell on the dry sand beside the swamp, her chest heaving violently, and stuffed a handful of elixir into her bloody mouth.

The swamp continued to tremble, and huge ripples appeared in the center. A gigantic fish slowly emerged from the depths of the swamp.
