After the transmission power disappeared, Duan Gujin finally opened his eyes. He looked around and realized that they, a group of contestants, had been teleported into a boundless desert.
Duan Gujin frowned deeply as he surveyed his surroundings. Soon, he noticed soone of the Liuyun Immortal Sect Elders' level standing on a nearby platform.
That elder shouted loudly, "All of you, you have now entered the Lost City. In a mont, you will walk into the city ahead. There, you will find a giant pyramid with five levels, each with a challenge waiting for you! You can only pass this stage by solving all the riddles! Co up one by one to get your Teleportation Plate! Let tell you, once you activate the Teleportation Plate, you will be teleported away! If you're teleported away, then you've failed this stage of the test! None of you should even think about cheating!"
Cheating?
Duan Gujin's eyebrows knitted further. He suddenly rembered why so many Sixth-level Alchemists were entering the Trial Ground at the sa ti for this test—weren't the people of Liuyun Immortal Sect afraid of cheating among the contestants?
Before entering the practice area, all the contestants had their storage rings taken away, and they were subject to thorough inspections.
Logically, the contestants should now no longer have any Elixir Pills or Spiritual dicine to assist them anymore.
If they wanted to cheat here, they would have to huddle in groups of two or three to discuss strategies.
Many of the present contestants realized sothing.
"It turns out that there are many mory Crystal Stones set up by the Liuyun Immortal Sect here. Those mory Crystal Stones can record every trace of their activities here!"
With this in mind, the contestants all beca very cautious, considering that they might be in a place under constant surveillance, where every move could be watched.
After the contestants received their Teleportation Plates, they raced towards the direction of the pyramid.
Duan Gujin also hurried forward with the other contestants, flying swiftly while pondering a question.
"Why did Liuyun Immortal Sect create such a desert area here?"
His mind raced, and after so ti, he thought of a type of Array.
"Could it be that Liuyun Immortal Sect built a Flowing Light Flying Formation here? But that Flowing Light Flying Formation is a very high-level one, and it's not sothing that can be activated easily. If this is really the Flowing Light Flying Formation, once it's activated, it would consu a trendous amount of Immortal Stones. If the Liuyun Immortal Sect really did activate a Flowing Light Flying Formation here, then the number of Immortal Stones consud would be astonishing. They would suffer a huge loss!"
Duan Gujin extended his Divine Sense, inspecting the energy fluctuations around him.
After a while, he indeed sensed a strange fluctuation of energy in the nearby Void.
After careful analysis, he ca to a conclusion—the space that he was in was a small space surrounded by Spatial Energy and Ti Energy.
"Could it really be that we are inside a Flowing Light Flying Formation?"
Contemplating this possibility made Duan Gujin gasp in shock.
"How is this possible?"
Duan Gujin was filled with doubts, truly puzzled as to why the Liuyun Immortal Sect would have them undergo the final trial within a Flowing Light Flying Formation.
"It's said that any living creatures within the Flowing Light Flying Formation, if they stay here for one day, it would be equivalent to staying outside for a month, and that chairman told us to stay here for seven days, it seems they really do know how formidable this Flowing Light Flying Formation is!"
His eyes darted around, but he couldn't figure out why the people of Liuyun Immortal Sect wanted them to enter this place for the final trial.
After thinking for a while and confirming that he could not understand, he didn't ponder any further.
With so little information in hand, he knew it was impossible to draw conclusions just by analyzing.
To find the truth, he must find more clues.
Duan Gujin abandoned all unnecessary speculation and followed the team towards the pyramid ahead.
On the way, he spotted four won with veiled faces.
These four won had graceful figures, delicate bodies, skin as white as snow, and jet-black hair.
However, their faces were covered with a layer of specially made veils which prevented others' Divine Sense Inspection, making it impossible for anyone to see through those veils to the won's faces.
Duan Gujin glanced briefly at the four won before shifting his gaze.
He was not interested in those won. His Divine Sense extended and he soon realized that among all the contestants, there were only four won.
"It seems that it's really not an easy task for won to learn Alchemy," Duan Gujin remarked to himself.
The four won did not take to heart the glance from Duan Gujin.
To them, Duan Gujin was rely a disciple from a Second-class Sect with a low Cultivation level; they didn't spare him a second glance.
Even though their Cultivation realms were similar to Duan Gujin's, in their minds, only Martial Artists at the Martial Emperor Realm were worth their attention; they simply didn't consider Duan Gujin.
The appearance of four female Alchemists in the group did not please the other male Disciples.
After all, the four won who could appear here were by no ans ordinary, and they commanded a certain level of respect.
Even if there were no surveillance Treasures around, the other contestants dared not lay a hand on the four female Alchemists.
Those who were participating in the Sixth-level Alchemist test, which one of them was ordinary? They were all old foxes who had lived a thousand years, even ten thousand.
Monts later, the crowd indeed saw a huge pyramid appearing in the distance.
In the seemingly endless desert, the sudden appearance of such a giant pyramid was a trendously shocking Treasure.
After approaching the pyramid, the contestants saw a huge entrance at the base of the pyramid.
Despite the sand almost everywhere outside, there was no sand at the entrance.
The ground was completely smooth and dry, as if it had been swept clean.
"Let's go in!"
The contestants arrived at the gate, all channeling their Primordial Power to activate the Array and open the doors together.
After several clanking sounds, the doors were indeed pushed open by the joined efforts of the contestants.
Once it was opened, it could no longer revert to its original position.
Just as they pushed open the door, they saw that the passage ahead was covered with a pile of stones.
"What's going on?"
The contestants looked at each other before they all rushed forward, carefully moving the stones aside.
