"And what you need to do is compete with the Lightning Eagle in speed. At the end of this sky, there is a golden mountain called Golden Sun Mountain." The black, withered old man pointed to the end of the distant sky, "Whoever reaches there first between you and the Lightning Eagle wins. If you reach Golden Sun Mountain first, you will have passed the first test: the test of speed."
Following the direction of the black, withered old man's finger, Lin Changqing looked towards the end of the sky. Ten thousand miles away, he could indeed vaguely see a golden mountain.
"Compete in speed with the Lightning Eagle..." Lin Changqing turned to look at his opponent, the black, hundred-meter-tall giant bird. It was entirely black with sharp claws. Its wings, when spread, were several hundred meters long, and there were lightning runes swirling around them.
Lin Changqing could feel the presence of this giant bird's flesh and blood life force. It was actually a living Lightning Eagle!
Lightning Eagle, Lin Changqing had indeed heard of it.
Ranked among the top 100 rare and exotic beasts of the ancient era, known for its speed.
It was said that even a newly born, young Lightning Eagle with only Qi Refining cultivation, would be faster than some Foundation Establishment cultivators in terms of speed alone.
Lin Changqing could feel that the Lightning Eagle next to him had a cultivation level of approximately the peak of the Core Formation tenth layer, which meant that this Lightning Eagle's speed might be comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator!
If an ordinary Core Formation cultivator were to compete in speed with this Lightning Eagle, they might really lose. However, Lin Changqing had the Kun Peng Celestial Art, and he was confident that he would not lose this competition!
"Start the race!"
With the black, withered old man's command, the Lightning Eagle spread its hundreds-of-meters-long black giant wings. With a bang, the lightning runes swirling around its giant wings cut through the sky, flying straight towards the distance.
In a very short time, the Lightning Eagle had traveled ten thousand meters with a single flap of its wings.
This kind of speed was simply incomparable to ordinary Core Formation cultivators!
"Kun Peng Celestial Art!" As the Lightning Eagle started, Lin Changqing also outlined the Kun Peng runes in his dantian. In an instant, black and white qi swirled around him. In the blink of an eye, Lin Changqing transformed into a giant bird with a fish head, carrying a Taiji diagram on its back, with mysterious black and white qi swirling around it. This was the true form of the Kun Peng!
[Your competition with the Lightning Eagle has begun. You immediately used the Kun Peng Celestial Art, displaying the true form of the Kun Peng. The Kun Peng Celestial Art is indeed one of the Ten Great Celestial Arts. After using the Kun Peng Celestial Art, you only needed three breaths to catch up with the Lightning Eagle!]
[Seeing you surpass it, the Lightning Eagle let out a滔天 angry roar, and lightning runes appeared on its body. Its speed suddenly increased by another level. You know that the Lightning Eagle has begun to burn its essence blood, using its talent to enhance its speed.]
[However, you are not afraid. In an instant, you once again activated the Kun Peng runes in your dantian. The black and white Taiji around your Kun Peng true form rotated a second time, and your speed increased again. Even if the Lightning Eagle used its talent to burn its essence blood, it could not compete with you.]
[In this way, after half an hour, you were far ahead all the way. No matter what divine abilities the Lightning Eagle used to accelerate, it could not catch up with you. A quarter of an hour later, you were the first to reach the golden mountain, while the Lightning Bird had long been left behind. In this competition about speed, you were far ahead, and you even felt that your victory was a bit easy.]
"Not bad, Successor, your performance in this speed competition can be described as perfect. I can give you a score of ten." After Lin Changqing reached the golden mountain, the black, withered old man arrived and announced Lin Changqing's victory in this speed competition, and informed Lin Changqing that this performance was perfect.
"Successor, you are the first person I have seen to perfectly pass the speed test. The two Successors before you also surpassed the Lightning Eagle in speed, but they were not as fast as you. I can only give them a score of nine. And your performance is a 10.", the black, withered old man said again.
Hearing this, Lin Changqing's eyes narrowed: "Did the Fourth Prince and the Thirteenth Princess also compete with the Lightning Eagle in terms of speed..."
You were not surprised by the black, withered old man's words. These two people had continuous fortuitous encounters. The Thirteenth Princess had a phoenix, so it was possible for her speed to surpass the Lightning Eagle. The Fourth Prince might also have a movement technique in terms of speed, so he could also surpass the Lightning Eagle.
Of course, no matter what, these two people's mastery of speed was definitely not as good as his own.
Mastering the Kun Peng Celestial Art, Lin Changqing believed that he was invincible in terms of speed.
[Next, the second level began. The black, withered old man informed you that the second level was a test of strength, and you also learned that in the strength test, the Thirteenth Princess failed, and only the Fourth Prince succeeded.]
"Successor, next is the second test, the test of strength. Of the two challengers, one male and one female, only one male succeeded. I hope you succeed this time as well."
As the black, withered old man spoke, he snapped his fingers again. This time, the scene changed from the sky to a fiery valley. Lin Changqing looked ahead of the valley, where a black giant bull, surrounded by flames, stood. The black giant bull's eyes were full of murderous intent, and its two giant horns were outlined with dense runes.
"Successor, this is a type of demon beast cultivated by my Mountain and Sea Sect in the ancient era that reached the extreme in terms of strength, the Mighty Black Mountain Bull, which is listed alongside the Lightning Eagle as one of the Hundred Great Demon Beasts. It has 100,000 pounds of strength at birth, and can gain two million pounds of strength after three months. After adulthood, it even possesses the power of one dragon!"
"And this Black Mountain Bull has a Core Formation tenth layer cultivation, and its own bloodline is outstanding. It is the king of the Black Mountain Bull herd, with the power of ten dragons. What you need to do is compete with this Mighty Black Mountain Bull in strength, using the pure physical strength of your body."
[Hearing the words of the black, withered old man, you secretly clicked your tongue. You finally know why the Thirteenth Princess failed. This black mountain bull actually possesses the power of ten dragons. What kind of concept is that? The so-called power of one dragon is a standard for measuring physical strength. What a noble creature is a dragon? Being able to reach the power of one dragon in terms of physical body means that you have reached the extreme in terms of physical body, possessing unparalleled power.]
[Like Lin Changqing's physical body forging ten bones, but before entering the Five Elements Divine Palace, he only had the power of two dragons. Entering the Five Elements Divine Palace, passing through five levels, the five internal organs of the body were refined, and the strength was increased, reaching the power of six dragons, but it was only the power of six dragons, and there was still a difference of four dragons of power from the Black Mountain Bull!]
"The power of ten dragons, I am currently lacking the power of four dragons, how to fight? How did the Fourth Prince win?" Lin Changqing narrowed his eyes, looking at the black mountain bull that was three zhang tall in front of him.
He had to admit that if he only relied on his physical body, he was afraid that he really could not defeat this Black Mountain Bull.
"Could it be that I am going to be defeated?" Lin Changqing thought so in his heart, but in an instant, he put this thought in the bottom of his heart. The Fourth Prince could win, why couldn't he win?
He had invincible faith. He could do what others could do.
[With this kind of faith, you began the strength competition with the Mighty Black Mountain Bull.]
