Ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

Today is the day when the third round of competition begins!

Today, the Immortal King of the Underworld used his magical power to cause an altar that had been sleeping underground in the inner city to rise high out of the ground!

It was the Circular Mound Altar erected by the First Killing Emperor. It had three floors and was paved with blood-patterned marble.

In the center of the third floor of the altar, there is a huge stone tablet. The stone tablet is 100,000 feet high and inlaid with 10 million blood-colored crystals the size of fingernails, shining like stars.

The jade platforms on both sides of the altar were already filled with old monsters from Dongtian.

Under the altar, stood a hundred participants headed by Ning Fan.

In the third round, the test is the Taoist heart!

Participants who stand on the altar and touch the stone tablet can light up the blood-colored crystal with the evil energy accumulated from their own killings.

In the process of lighting up the crystal, the subject will endure the torment of evil spirits several times that of his own body.

Those who do not have a strong Taoist heart will be counterattacked by evil spirits.

Those with a firm Taoist heart can obtain varying degrees of evil spirit improvement based on the number of lit crystals and the strength of the Taoist heart.

The power of most of the magical powers in the Killing Hall is linked to the strength of the evil spirit.

For the monks of the Killing Hall, the stronger the evil spirit, the stronger the magical power.

This Blood Sea Altar can increase evil spirits. Generally speaking, it will only be opened once every ten thousand years. Monks who want to use the altar to increase evil spirits can use the power of the altar to increase evil spirits after spending a large amount of killing points.

Like the Tower of Babel, it costs Dao Crystals to increase the evil spirit on the altar. The more the monks increase the evil spirit, the more Dao Crystals are consumed.

And even if no one uses the altar to increase the evil spirit, just opening the altar once will cost nearly 400 billion Dao Crystals.

The Blood Sea Altar was last opened 3,700 years ago.

The other monks in the Killing Hall have to wait for 6,300 years before they have the opportunity to use the power of the altar to increase their evil spirits.

"The Immortal King of the Underworld is so generous that he actually opened the Blood Sea Altar for a mere apprenticeship ceremony..."

"The last time it was the Tower of Babel, this time it's the Blood Sea Altar. The Immortal King of the Underworld seems to attach great importance to this contestant."

"It's no wonder that the Immortal King of the Underworld attaches so much importance to this year's contestants. After all, one of the candidates in this year's competition is Ning Fan."

Some old monsters were discussing in low voices when suddenly, a sound of coughing spread throughout the inner city.

These old monsters looked in the direction of the sound, and their expressions changed.

The one who coughed slightly was none other than the Immortal King of the Underworld.

His brows were slightly furrowed and his eyes were slightly displeased. He didn't like being talked about behind his back.

When they saw the Immortal King of the Underworld showing his displeasure, all the old monsters shut up obediently and did not dare to talk nonsense anymore.

For a moment, the entire inner city was deathly silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

"Qian Tu. Announce the rules." Immortal King Nether Sea said calmly.

"yes!"

Qian Tuzi clasped his fists respectfully to the Immortal King of the Underworld, and then asked someone to bring over a copper box, place it in front of him, and said loudly in the direction of the hundreds of participants,

"In this copper box, there are name tags of all the little friends. I will randomly draw the name tags. Whoever is drawn will go to the altar and light up the crystal with evil energy."

"If the participant's Taoist mind is unstable and is counterattacked by evil spirits, the score for this round will be zero. Each time a crystal is successfully lit, the score will be increased by 1 point. After this round, the top ten people with the total score will advance to the fourth round.

.”

The results of the first two rounds can already affect the third round.

Except for Ning Fan, everyone got zero points in the first round.

Only 76 people had results in the second round, and the other 24 people who advanced through the lottery still had zero results.

If these people want to squeeze into the ten-person quota, their chances are slim.

Ning Fan looked at the copper box, his eyes flashing slightly.

This copper box has six sides without openings, and the surface is covered with isolation and teleportation formation patterns. It can isolate spiritual thoughts, and can be randomly inserted to transmit life cards.

But Qian Tuzi patted the copper box, and in a flash, a nameplate in the box was revealed.

The famous brand was suspended in mid-air. After one breath, it turned into powder.

On the nameplate was engraved the word "Ren Xiao".

"Ren Xiao, go to the altar!"

Qian Tuzi gave an order, and a white-robed man with an immortal cultivation level walked out of the crowd and climbed onto the altar step by step.

His name is Ren Xiao, and he was born in the intermediate cultivation star - Demon Sea Star.

He is also a young demon with a good reputation in the Demon Sea Star Territory. He has killed many people in his life and his evil aura is not weak.

Standing under the giant monument, Ren Xiao took a deep breath, the evil energy around him dispersed, and slapped the giant monument with his palm.

In an instant, thousands of crystals lit up one after another on the giant monument!

"3852 points... Not bad evil spirit, but unfortunately, this guy's Taoist heart is too weak. Although he kills a lot, he is not a good person at all in practicing the way of killing..." Qian Tuzi said to himself.

As soon as his voice fell, an evil aura that was several times more powerful than Ren Xiao's evil aura suddenly poured out from the giant monument, turning into a sheet of blood and drowning Ren Xiao.

Under this ferocious evil spirit, Ren Xiao's eyes gradually turned blood red and were invaded by the evil spirit.

I felt a pain in my chest. I took a few steps back and suddenly fell to my knees on the ground, coughing up blood.

After the palm was separated from the giant monument, the evil energy and blood that poured out immediately disappeared.

Ren Xiao looked at the giant monument with a wry smile, knowing that he would not be able to get his 3852 points.

The score is related to the number of kills in a lifetime. It not only depends on the number of kills, but also the difference in cultivation between the killer and the killed.

If you often kill beyond the level, your score will naturally be extremely high.

If you rely on your cultivation as a loose immortal to slaughter mortals, even if you kill tens of billions, there will be no points.

Ignoring Ren Xiao, Qian Tuzi patted the copper box again, looked at the nameplate flying into the sky, and said loudly.

"Next, Wang Yu!"

A skinny young man who had cultivated as an immortal stepped onto the altar and placed his palms on the giant monument.

This person lit up a total of 4274 crystals, but unfortunately, he could not withstand the evil energy emanating from the giant monument.

The score for this round is zero...

"Lu Jia!"

"Ding Feng!"

"White rainbow!"

...

There were thirty-five Loose Immortals in a row, but none of them could withstand the evil energy coming back from the giant monument. The scores for this round were all 0 points.

The thirty-sixth person who ascended the altar was a young scribe.

After he ascended the altar, he did not reveal all the evil spirits, but only released a small amount of evil spirits, lighting up 1,000 crystals.

It's not that he can't light up more, but if he lights up more, he may not be able to withstand the backlash of evil energy.

The amount of evil energy released is small, and the evil energy that comes back is within the range he can bear.

"This guy is smart and knows how to make choices. Although 1,000 points is a small number, it is better than 0 points."

Qian Tuzi nodded, slapped his palm on the copper box again, took out the next name tag, and ordered people to go to the altar.

Following the example of the young scribes, many of the others followed suit and stopped releasing evil spirits with all their strength.

So, some people lit up 1,200 crystals, some lit up 800 crystals, some lit up 1,500 crystals, and most of them got points.

Although the score is small, it is much better than the previous zero score parties.

But in this way, it goes against the meaning of the existence of the Blood Sea Altar.

Ning Fan looked at each of the competitors indifferently. These people were ready to take advantage of the situation before they boarded the altar, and they became timid.

And what they are timid about is the killings they have committed and the evil spirits they have accumulated along the way.

Such a cowardly approach before fighting means that he has sneaked into the killing hall, so what future can he have?

Those who are timid before fighting will naturally not have a strong Taoist heart.

Those who do not dare to face their own sins will naturally have a weak Taoist heart.

Ning Fan opened his palms, looked at his white palms, and frowned.

This palm looks clean, but in fact it is already stained with blood and sin.

Along the way, he has waded through too many seas of blood and committed too many murderous deeds.

He never escapes from the sins he has committed, and he will not blame others after killing others to make himself feel at ease.

If he kills, it is not because of evil; if he does not kill, it is not because of good.
