Chapter 571 - Chapter 571: Chapter 561: Braving the Hundred Refinement Bridge, The Conspiracy of Fire Cloud Tunnel_3 (2/2)

“I’m not interested.”
Qin Niu was not the kind of guy who threw himself at a beautiful woman, planting seeds every chance he got; he rejected the idea without a second thought.
“If you won’t drink a toast, you must drink a penalty! Die!”
The Nine Insects Gang Leader suddenly unleashed her strongest sword technique, materializing a crescent moon above her head, and slashed her sword at Qin Niu.
This woman was still as venomous and fierce as ever, turning hostile in the blink of an eye.
Qin Niu, faced with her attack, quickly dodged aside.
But fighting on this bridge, which was already extremely narrow, made it nearly impossible to dodge.
Seeing the sharp sword moves slashing toward him, the terrifying Sword Qi made his skin sting.
“That’s wrong, you’re fake!”
As if he suddenly understood something, Qin Niu didn’t dodge or block, but continued to charge forward.
Whoosh!
Everything vanished, confirming his guess. How could the Nine Insects Gang Leader suddenly appear in front of him?
Besides, on this perilous Hundred Refinement Bridge, which challenger wouldn’t be rushing to the other side, instead of stopping to fight?
Although there was some enmity between Qin Niu and the Nine Insects Gang Leader, it hadn’t reached the point of being utterly irreconcilable.
These abnormal points led Qin Niu to boldly determine that the Nine Insects Gang Leader in front of him was an illusion.
He rushed forward and then saw the world of vitality on the opposite bank, where plants green with vigour were displaying their robust vitality.
He had finally made it through.
Qin Niu couldn’t help but rejoice; he was just about to hasten his step and jump onto the bank but still kept an extra ounce of caution.
Because if the Hundred Refinement Bridge was so easily crossed, it would seem a bit too unrealistic.
As expected, he circulated the Medicine King Sutra cultivation power through his eyes to examine the plants on the opposite bank. He discovered they only had faint energy and did not emit any medicinal fragrance, which was obviously abnormal.
Qin Niu proceeded honestly along the bridge surface and didn’t dare to leap onto the bank.
As he reached the junction of the bank, with only half a foot stepping onto the bridge extension towards the bank, the green plants in front of him shattered like a broken glass dreamscape, and all vanished.
The surface of the bridge under his foot twisted and extended forward.
If he had been in a hurry to achieve immediate success and jumped directly onto the bank, he would have certainly fallen into the abyss beneath the bridge.
He couldn’t help but break into yet another cold sweat.
Afterward, he went through two different trials before he finally reached the opposite bank.
Before him suddenly appeared a teleportation gate flashing with multicoloured light.
This also meant that Qin Niu had finally passed the trial of the third Immortal Gate and could officially become a disciple of the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect.
He looked back at the Hundred Refinement Bridge he had crossed; the white fog that had shrouded it had long since disappeared. He could clearly see the entire bridge and Xu Weng, who was still struggling to make his way across it.
The scene was incredibly eerie, with Xu Weng constantly stepping backward and then forward in small increments.
He even wildly swung his sword at thin air.
It seemed the Hundred Refinement Bridge primarily tested a challenger’s mentality. Only those with firm and stable Dao hearts and exceptional strength could possibly pass the trial.
Behind Xu Weng, there were six or seven strangers who he had never met before, each trying to cross the bridge.
Qin Niu was certain that these people did not come riding the white clouds of the Great Immortal Envoy; he had not seen any of them before.
His gaze involuntarily turned to the opposite bank where Chi Jinglei was.
Qin Niu’s pupils constricted as he saw Chi Jinglei’s one-way teleportation formation flashing with white light. Immediately after the flash, a strange woman emerged from it.
“Has he summoned a powerful fighter from the Fire Cloud Tunnel? What exactly is Chi Jinglei trying to do?”
After the woman emerged, she quickly leapt onto the Hundred Refinement Bridge and began her attempt to reach the opposite bank.
Qin Niu couldn’t help but worry about Xu Weng on the bridge.
