Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

After Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er successfully dealt with the two-headed giant python, they continued to explore the Fighting Saint ruins carefully.

The passages inside the ruins were intricate, and strange lights flickered on the walls, as if telling ancient stories. They walked along the winding passages, each step full of caution.

"Mu Chen, what secrets do you think are hidden in these ruins?" Lin Wan'er asked softly.

Xiao Muchen frowned, "I don't know either, but I feel this place is not simple, so we should be careful."

Just then, they came to a spacious hall. In the center of the hall was a huge stone platform, on which was placed a crystal ball emitting a mysterious light.

Xiao Muchen approached the crystal ball and felt a strong force emanating from it. Just as he was about to reach out and touch it, Lin Wan'er quickly shouted, "Be careful!"

But it was too late, Xiao Muchen's hand had already touched the crystal ball. Instantly, a powerful force enveloped him, and his body trembled involuntarily.

"Mu Chen!" Lin Wan'er was extremely anxious and tried to go forward to help, but was bounced back by an invisible force.

Xiao Muchen felt his consciousness gradually blurring, as if he was drawn into an endless vortex. In that vortex, he saw a series of blurry images, including fierce battles, mysterious rituals, and an unclear figure telling him something.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Muchen suddenly opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar space. The surroundings were in chaos, with only a faint light flickering.

"Where is this?" Xiao Muchen's heart was full of confusion and fear.

Suddenly, a figure slowly emerged. It was the owner of the ruins, a powerful Dou Sheng named Feng Yan Sheng.

Saint Fengyan looked at Xiao Muchen with a stern gaze and said, "Young man, you have entered a place you shouldn't be in."

Xiao Muchen hurriedly said respectfully: "Senior, I have no intention of offending you. I am just curious about the mysteries in the ruins. If there is anything inappropriate, I hope you will forgive me."

Saint Fengyan nodded slightly: "In that case, you must pass my test. If you succeed, you will benefit from it."

Xiao Muchen looked determined: "I am willing to listen to your arrangements."

First, Xiao Muchen faced a group of puppets. These puppets were agile, powerful, and numerous. Xiao Muchen frowned, thinking about how to deal with them. He decided to attack tentatively first to understand the puppets' weaknesses. After several fights, he found that ordinary attacks had little effect on the puppets.

"It seems that I can only use the strange fire." Xiao Muchen thought to himself. He used the Netherworld Poison Fire, and the dark blue flames swept out instantly, like a ferocious fire dragon, pouncing on the puppets with its fangs and claws.

The puppets felt the threat of the strange fire and tried to dodge. However, the speed of the Netherworld Poison Fire was extremely fast and it caught up with them in an instant. The moment the flame came into contact with the puppet, a "sizzling" sound was heard and the puppet's body began to smoke, but it did not immediately turn into ashes.

Seeing this, Xiao Muchen increased the output of the strange fire. The flames became more intense, wrapping the puppets tightly in it. The puppets struggled in the flames, trying to break free from the restraints of the strange fire, but the power of the netherworld poisonous fire was too strong, and their efforts were in vain.

As time went by, the bodies of the puppets were gradually charred, and finally turned into ashes in the flames. Xiao Muchen breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He knew that this was just the beginning of the battle, and there would be more challenges waiting for him.

After solving the puppet, Xiao Muchen breathed a sigh of relief, but he knew that the next test might be even more difficult.

Next was the illusion trial. As Xiao Muchen was an alchemist, his soul power was not weak to begin with, and it had been strengthened through long-term practice, so the illusion did not cause him much trouble at first.

However, as he went deeper into the illusion, the scenes became more realistic and complex. He saw his past failures and setbacks, and saw his family and friends being hurt, and he couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

"This is all fake, I can't be fooled!" Xiao Muchen gritted his teeth and tried to stay awake. He concentrated his mind and used his soul power to resist the erosion of the illusion.

Finally, with his persistence, the illusion gradually dissipated and he successfully passed the test. After this test, his soul power was further enhanced.

The final test is to survive ten moves at the hands of the Wind Flame Saint.

Xiao Muchen took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and responded with full concentration. The first move of the Wind Flame Saint came like a storm, with blazing flames and fierce momentum. Xiao Muchen dodged the attack with a flash of his body, narrowly avoiding it.

The second move was like a volcanic eruption, the raging flames formed a huge pillar of fire, crushing towards Xiao Muchen. He gritted his teeth, displayed his unique body skills, and shuttled between the pillars of fire like a ghost, avoiding this fatal blow.

The third move was like a prairie fire. The Wind Flame Saint waved his hands, and countless fireballs hit Xiao Muchen like a meteor shower. He did not dare to slack off, constantly changing his body shape, dodging left and right, and barely avoided the attack of these fireballs.

The fourth move was like a blazing storm, and a raging fire ignited around the Wind Flame Saint, forming a huge fire circle that trapped Xiao Muchen in it. Xiao Muchen's heart sank, but he did not panic, but quickly observed the surrounding fire, looking for an opportunity to break through.

The fifth move was like a fire dragon soaring into the sky. A huge fire dragon flew out from the hand of the Wind Flame Saint and pounced on Xiao Muchen with its fangs and claws bared. Xiao Muchen's eyes were determined, and he used all his strength to start a fierce fight with the fire dragon.

The sixth move was like a raging sea of fire. The attack of the Wind Flame Saint became more and more fierce, and the entire space was covered by flames. Xiao Muchen struggled forward in the sea of fire. His clothes had been burnt and his body was injured in many places, but he still did not give up.

The seventh move was like a blazing sun in the sky. The power of the Wind Flame Saint reached its peak, and a dazzling light emanated from his body, like a scorching sun. Xiao Muchen was blinded by the light, but with his tenacious will, he managed to find a flaw in the light and successfully avoided the attack.

The eighth move was like a hell of fire. The attack of the Wind Flame Saint became more bizarre. The flames were mixed with black smoke, making it hard to defend against. Xiao Muchen responded carefully, not daring to be careless.

The ninth move was like a fire exploding the heaven and earth. The Wind Flame Saint put his hands together, then pushed hard, and a powerful explosive force erupted instantly. Xiao Muchen was knocked back by this force and fell heavily to the ground.

The tenth move was like a flame destroying the sky. The final blow of the Wind Flame Saint came at Xiao Muchen with the momentum of destroying the heavens and the earth. Xiao Muchen struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes full of unyielding and determination. He used up the last bit of his strength and unleashed his ultimate move, colliding with the attack of the Wind Flame Saint.

Saint Fengyan nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you have passed the test. Here are the remaining pictures of the strange fire and two books of heavenly fighting skills as your rewards."

Xiao Muchen took the Strange Fire Remains Map and the Fighting Skills Secret Book while his body was covered in wounds, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Senior!"

After Xiao Muchen came out of the crystal ball, his injuries were instantly healed. After coming out, he saw Wan'er still waiting for him anxiously. After seeing Xiao Muchen come out, Lin Wan'er felt relieved and said to Xiao Muchen happily, "Muchen! I'm so glad you're okay. Let's go."

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er were happily preparing to leave the ruins. Just as they were about to walk out of the exit of the ruins, they were blocked by a group of people.

"Stop! Hand over the treasures you got in the ruins!" said the leader with a greedy look on his face.

Xiao Muchen didn't want to cause trouble, so he said, "Everyone, we don't want to be your enemy, please get out of the way."

However, the other party did not give up and rushed forward waving their weapons. Xiao Muchen had no choice but to fight. Wind and Thunder Fury appeared on Xiao Muchen's palm. He waved his hand and a flame with the power of thunder and lightning formed a small storm, whistling towards those greedy people. They scattered in an instant, and Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er took the opportunity to leave.

"Let's go!" Xiao Muchen pulled Lin Wan'er and quickly left the ruins.

After walking out of the ruins, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er found a quiet place to rest.

"Mu Chen, we have gained a lot this time." Lin Wan'er said excitedly.

Xiao Muchen nodded: "Yes, but it also caused a lot of trouble. We have to practice these two heavenly fighting skills as soon as possible to improve our strength."

In the following days, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er began to practice with great concentration. Xiao Muchen focused on "Wuji Sword Dao - Chaos Beginning", while Lin Wan'er delved into "Spiritual Wind Blessing - Swift Aid".

They know that this harvest will bring great changes to their future, but it will also bring more challenges and crises. However, they are not afraid and are ready to face everything in the future.
