Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

After Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er got rid of the pursuit of the black-robed man, they sped all the way and finally stopped in a quiet valley. The valley was surrounded by green mountains and shaded by green trees. A clear stream ran through the valley. It was a quiet and peaceful place.

The two found a large flat rock and sat down side by side, both breathing heavily.

"Senior Brother Xiao, it was a close call just now. The man in black robe was too strong." Lin Wan'er said with lingering fear. Her face was still a little pale, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

Xiao Muchen nodded, his eyes revealing a trace of solemnity, "But fortunately we still escaped. Now let's see what secrets are hidden in this ancient book."

As he spoke, he carefully took out the mysterious ancient book from the ruins from his storage ring. The cover of the ancient book was made of some kind of animal skin, which felt rough but strangely warm, emitting an ancient and mysterious light that seemed to have life, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if telling a long-ago story.

Xiao Muchen gently opened the first page, and a stale breath came to his face. The words on the page were obscure and difficult to understand. The winding lines were like ancient talismans, revealing a mysterious charm.

"What kind of text is this? I've never seen it before." Lin Wan'er frowned. She moved closer to observe it carefully, her beautiful eyes full of confusion.

Xiao Muchen also frowned slightly, staring at the words intently, and fell into deep thought. Suddenly, he remembered that he had seen similar words in an incomplete ancient book during a previous adventure.

"I seem to have some impression, let me think about it." Xiao Muchen closed his eyes and tried to recall. Various scenes from the past kept appearing in his mind, trying to find a clue from the depths of his memory.

After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "I remember now, this is a kind of ancient writing. I have seen a simple introduction to it in a fragment of a manuscript."

Xiao Muchen began to decipher the words with difficulty, relying on his vague memory. His fingers gently slid across the words, mumbling something, his brows sometimes furrowed, sometimes relaxed.

Lin Wan'er watched him nervously from the side, not daring to breathe for fear of disturbing him.

As the interpretation deepened, Xiao Muchen's expression became more and more serious, and Lin Wan'er's face gradually showed a look of surprise.

It turns out that this ancient book records a powerful cultivation method called "Chaos Heavenly Spirit Technique". This method is said to be able to break through the bottleneck of cultivation and greatly increase the strength of practitioners in a short period of time. However, the cultivation conditions of this method are extremely harsh, requiring practitioners to have extremely high talent and perseverance, and they will face various dangers and tests during the cultivation process. In addition, the ancient book also mentioned that if you can pass the test, you can learn a low-level heavenly fighting skill - "Chaos Destroying Palm".

"If we can practice this technique and then learn this low-level heavenly fighting skill, our strength will definitely be greatly enhanced." Lin Wan'er said excitedly, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Xiao Muchen was not so optimistic. He shook his head gently and said, "Wan'er, don't be too happy too soon. This technique must be extremely difficult to practice, and this test must be full of dangers."

At this moment, the ancient book suddenly emitted a strong light, and the light instantly enveloped them. Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er felt dizzy, as if the whole world was turned upside down.

When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a mysterious space. This space was shrouded in a thick chaotic air, which filled the surroundings like smoke and fog, so thick that people could hardly see the road ahead. The chaotic air was like a living thing, constantly surging and sometimes turning into various strange shapes, as if they were creatures from an unknown world; sometimes it emitted a low whistling sound, like the roar of an ancient beast, which made people feel terrified.

In this ocean of chaotic energy, countless secrets and dangers seem to be hidden. Every roll of chaotic energy may bring unexpected changes, making it impossible to predict what will happen next. This uncertainty makes the entire space full of tension and depression, as if a thrilling crisis may break out at any time.

"Senior Brother Xiao, what's going on?" Lin Wan'er was a little panicked, and she subconsciously grabbed the corner of Xiao Muchen's clothes.

Xiao Muchen took a deep breath and calmed himself down, "Don't be afraid, Wan'er, maybe this is a test for practicing the technique."

They groped their way forward cautiously in the chaotic air, taking every step with great care. The ground beneath their feet seemed to have no substance, it was soft and made people feel uneasy.

Suddenly, a huge figure appeared in front of them. This figure was as tall as a mountain, as if it stood on top of the sky, making the entire space look extremely small. The figure was shrouded in a hazy light, making it difficult to see its face, but one could feel its extremely powerful aura. That aura was like a substance, pressing Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er so hard that they could hardly breathe.

"Why do you want to practice this technique?" The figure made a low voice, which seemed to come from ancient times, carrying with it endless vicissitudes and majesty.

Xiao Muchen endured the pressure, stepped forward, and said respectfully: "Senior, we want to improve our strength, protect the people around us, and fight against evil."

The figure was silent for a moment, and the chaotic energy around him seemed to stop at this moment.

"Okay, in that case, let's accept the test." After saying that, the figure waved his hand, and countless difficulties and challenges came towards Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er.

First, there are complex formations with flashing lights and flying runes. Each formation contains powerful forces that can strangle anyone who is not careful.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er looked at each other with determination in their eyes. They began to concentrate on breaking the formation. Xiao Muchen relied on his understanding of the formation to constantly look for flaws in the formation, while Lin Wan'er assisted him and provided him with support and protection.

After some hard work, they finally cracked the first formation. But before they could catch their breath, another wave of attacks followed.

This time it was a group of monsters formed by chaotic energy. They had different shapes, some had sharp claws, some had huge fangs, and they roared and pounced on them.

Xiao Muchen held the Star Sword, which shone with light, and used his sharp swordsmanship to engage in a fierce battle with the monsters. Lin Wan'er cast a spell in the back to bless Xiao Muchen with strength and heal the injuries he suffered in the battle.

With their tacit cooperation, the monsters were eliminated one after another. However, their physical strength and fighting spirit were constantly consumed, and fatigue gradually set in.

However, the test is far from over...
