Reborn Demon Emperor, I have to stay away from them

Yes, in fact, the three levels and five hurdles are always aimed at disciples who are promoted in the sect, not the top leaders.

Being able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage or above, even in Zhongzhou, one cannot be said to be weak! Such a cultivator, any sect in Zhongzhou, including the first pavilion and the three sects, is willing to accept.

But disciples below the Nascent Soul stage... those who are not good enough, if they enter Zhongzhou, wouldn’t that be a waste of Zhongzhou’s resources?

In fact, Yu Mu had figured this out long ago.

Even... the promotion of a sect is nothing more than a piece of cake that looks delicious and fragrant. Throughout history, not many promoted sects can actually eat the cake.

as predicted!

Even though many disciples were floating in the air, a breeze blew by, and a disciple in the early stage of Jindan suddenly screamed! Everyone looked up and saw that the disciple's ankle was tightly entangled by a vine.

Floating at a low altitude, it stands to reason… this thing can’t reach anyone!

Then, the disciple wanted to reach out for help, but no sound came out of his open mouth. Instead, vines followed his open mouth and his seven orifices and emerged at an extremely fast growth rate!

There was not even a trace of blood, and in just half a breath, without even giving others a chance to react, the disciple was completely decomposed by the vines.

There was not a trace of flesh or bones left! If it weren't for the tattered clothes falling on the ground, who would dare to believe that this clothes was still on a living person half a breath ago?

"Everyone be careful! Go at full speed and get through this place!"

Qi Ziyu shouted angrily, and the disciples immediately sped up their speed, but the screams continued one after another!

There were flowers that looked beautiful and charming, but suddenly they opened their mouths and swallowed a person alive. There were dense vines that instantly dismembered a person. There were branches that swung violently, smashing a person into a pile of blood and flesh.

This is indeed a killing array! This power is enough to be fatal to foundation building, core forming, and even golden core cultivators! Only Yuanying strongmen can escape from it.

“It’s really lively.”

Yu Mu observed and found that, as expected, those who were devoured by this formation were all relatively weak ones, either those with low cultivation or insufficient qualifications.

The path to advancement in a sect is nothing more than a huge sieve.

As he was thinking, Yu Mu saw Ye Tian's strange look. This bastard was holding Liu He and would glance at him from time to time...

Then Yu Mu bent his fingers, and three small stones shot out instantly, accurately and directly landed on the flowers and plants under Ye Tian's feet.

“Ahhh!!!”

Ye Tian was still thinking about how to deal with Yu Mu, at least to kill the Xiao brothers under his command, but before he could do anything, he saw the flower with a big mouth, the dancing vines, and the rustling insects flying towards him...

With Liu He's scream, Ye Tian felt numb all over! Although these things wouldn't kill him, they would bite him if they really did!

"How dare you!" Zi Li shouted angrily!

"boom!!"

The powerful spiritual pressure exploded instantly, and the flying insects, man-eating plants, and vines were instantly turned into ashes! Other high-ranking Yuanying and Huashen realm masters also took action, and they were all paving the way for the disciples.

On the contrary, on Yu Mu's side, there was no need for Yun Buqi to take action. Everyone saw a black and purple flame burning in Yu Mu's palm.

Under the light of the fire, those things retreated one after another, and could not even get within three feet of Yu Mu! This was also the first time they saw the so-called "devil flame", but where was the slightest bit of evil in it?

There is only the heart-pounding heat and domineeringness!

Xiao Jiji and Xiao Jiba followed closely behind Yu Mu, and some clever disciples also entered within three feet of Yu Mu.

However, only halfway through the journey, even with the escort of these powerful men, more than a thousand disciples still died in the formation.

There are also some who are not too weak. They have means to save their lives, but they are seriously injured... and then they are squeezed out of the formation by the power of the formation. I think, if they are not killed, they can still save their lives.

The screams were still heard sporadically, but they were much less frequent.

Finally, everyone passed through the oasis and looked back. The oasis gradually became blurred, with only the breeze, the singing of birds, the fragrance of flowers, and the beautiful sun.

The place is still quiet and peaceful, and you can't tell at all that nearly two thousand lives were buried in this peace not long ago!

Today, the number of remaining disciples in the Xinyunhe Sect is less than 20,000.

Until the shadow of the oasis completely disappeared, without giving everyone any time to breathe, another obstacle appeared in front of everyone on the way to the valley.

A gap less than one foot wide.

Everyone was silent.

Yun Buqi gritted his teeth and took a step forward! Immediately, the scenery changed again!

Oasis, desert, wide river, mountains, and vast ocean.

The five obstacles cost the lives of 6,000 disciples of Xinyunhe Sect! More than 3,000 disciples were squeezed out of the formation. Although they saved their lives, they also lost the qualification to enter Zhongzhou.

Currently, there are only a little over 10,000 disciples left in the Xinyunhe Sect, and everyone has an expression of deep fatigue on their faces.

It turns out... this is the path to advancement for a sect, it turns out... this is killing, then how cruel will the battles with the seven sects and the fight with the geniuses that will follow be?

In the valley, more than ten thousand people were blocked by an invisible force. They could no longer move forward, but they also got precious time to rest.

At the same time, seven powerful men with terrifying auras were on the top of a mountain, surrounding an ancient yet luxurious tea table.

The fragrance of tea wafts in the wind. The wind, which should have been strong, becomes milder on the top of the mountain.

"This Yunhe Sect does have some good talents. The four gods are also extraordinary and can be used."

One of them spoke up: "They used to be a sect in Zhongzhou."

"Yes, they are still a sect in Zhongzhou." Another person blinked, and there was even some teasing in his words.

"Hey! Fellow Daoist, please don't make fun of me. If nothing else, look at those two Yuanying Tianjiaos. They are so young and so powerful."

"You guys, are you already plotting against the genius in their sect? You should know that this kind of strength is enough to settle in Zhongzhou, and their sect is still there."

"The sect is still there? Otherwise it will be gone in a hundred years. Are the promotions of these sects just to provide fresh blood for us?"

"Hahaha! Same here."

"I do like that young man. When the time comes...his master can also become my disciple. With his aptitude, he can return to the void within a thousand years!"

"Fellow Daoist, you are such a domineering person! Yunhe Sect is a piece of fat meat. You are not the one who will take all the fat meat when you come to our Seven Sects. You must compete fairly!"

"Hahaha, yes, yes, what you said is absolutely right!"

…………

The Yunhe Sect took great pains to settle in Zhongzhou, but little did they know... in fact, throughout history, all the sects that had risen from a small corner of the country had become the fat meat in the eyes of the Zhongzhou sects.

As a result, a corner of the land became desolate again, and then rose again. The sects were integrated and promoted again. This cycle repeated itself, and Zhongzhou became more and more powerful.
