The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 1597: Chapter 1625: Heavenly Prison Maze

Daoist Minghuo clearly knows that bringing a Daoist Lord-level talent back to the Daoist School will earn him many rewards, so he doesn’t want to see Ye Feng leave the Daoist School because of Daoist Xuanming’s influence.

At this moment, both Daoist Qingzhu and Daoist Xuanming’s eyes revealed displeasure and killing intent towards Ye Feng.

Soon, the second round of assessment began. The second round tests everyone’s Dao Heart, which is the pursuit of martial arts, and this is also a test of willpower. Of course, the stronger one’s cultivation, the stronger their willpower will be.

In Daoist Minghuo’s view, as a Daoist Lord-level genius, Ye Feng’s willpower is certainly far beyond the average person’s.

Thus, there was no plan to let Ye Feng participate in the second round of assessment. After the second round ended, it was the second day, and both Qingshan and Zimo successfully passed the second round of assessment, and Daoist Minghuo returned to the stage.

Daoist Minghuo stood on the martial arts square’s platform, looking down at those who participated in the assessment.

At this time, under the platform, the martial artists participating in the assessment were less than one thousand. It should be noted that five to six thousand people came to participate in the assessment, and now after only two rounds, less than a thousand remain.

Daoist Minghuo stood on the platform and loudly said: ”Everyone, first I want to congratulate you on passing the first two rounds of assessment. Next, I will take you to the location of the third round of assessment. After passing the test, you can become disciples of the Daoist School!”

After speaking, Daoist Minghuo directly took out a flying shuttle from his storage ring.

The flying shuttle is large enough for a thousand people to board without feeling crowded.

When the shuttle appeared, the crowd boarded it one by one, and it moved towards the location of the final round of the assessment.

In just half an incense stick’s time, the group arrived at the location of the third round, fifty miles outside of the North Suburb of Heavenly Dao City. They saw a massive structure resembling a maze, surrounded by a powerful trapping formation. If the formation isn’t opened, one cannot freely enter or exit.

When the formation is unopened, one can only access the maze through its entrances and exits...

Daoist Minghuo led the martial artists to the maze’s entrance and said: ”Everyone, in front of you is the Heavenly Prison Maze. It is used by the Daoist School to imprison criminals. Inside, all prisoners are those on the Spirit Martial Continent who are under Daoist Lord level and extremely vicious. Your assessment is to pass through the maze!

The Heavenly Prison Maze has three levels. The first level contains Legendary realm prisoners. The first three of you to pass the first level with Legendary realm martial artists can become our Daoist School’s Outer Court disciples! The second level contains Divine Realm prisoners. The first five of you to pass the second level with Divine Realm experts can become our Daoist School’s Outer Court disciples! Finally, the third level.

The third level holds prisoners of the True God Realm. The first ten who pass the third level with True God Realm martial artists can become our Daoist School’s Outer Court disciples, but in the maze, prisoners can attack and kill you!

”What!” Upon hearing Daoist Minghuo’s words, everyone’s faces turned extremely grim. They all had heard how evil the prisoners within the Heavenly Prison Maze were, each with at least a thousand deaths on their hands.

In the martial artist world, having lives on one’s hands is normal, but the criminals held within the Heavenly Prison Maze are excessively malevolent, killing without cause. Even if not provoked, they attack and kill, so none imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison Maze are innocent.

Daoist Minghuo said: ”However, before you enter, we will issue a Teleportation Talisman to you. If you encounter danger, you can instantly be transported out by crushing the talisman.

This means you lose the qualification to join the Daoist School. Of course, you might face danger too suddenly to crush the talisman and get killed by the prisoners inside, which would be your own misfortune. If anyone wants to withdraw, now is the time. Let me also remind you, in each assessment, the mortality rate inside the Heavenly Prison Maze exceeds fifty percent!”

”What!” Upon hearing Daoist Minghuo’s words, everyone was shocked by the high mortality rate.

Immediately, many people started wavering, and soon a small portion chose to withdraw.

Almost all of them were martial artists at the initial and mid stages of Legendary, Divine Realm, and True God Realm because in their current realms, they were relatively weak. Entering the Heavenly Prison Maze had a very high mortality rate for them.

In no time, only over 600 remained wanting to continue the assessment. Then, Daoist Minghuo and his colleagues began issuing Teleportation Talismans, with the issuer being Daoist Qingzhu. Ye Feng, Qingshan, and Zimo all received a teleportation talisman.

When Daoist Qingzhu handed the talisman to Ye Feng, a strange expression flashed in his gaze.

That peculiar look may have been fleeting, but Ye Feng captured it, yet he paid it no mind.

When everyone received a Teleportation Talisman, Daoist Minghuo shouted: ”Alright, I declare the assessment started!”

With these words, martial artists started operating their True Essence, flew into the air, and quickly entered the Heavenly Prison Maze. Everyone knows that there were only eighteen spots available to enter the Daoist School, so every moment counts.

Zimo anxiously exclaimed: ”Brother Qingshan, Brother Ye Feng, let’s move quickly, or we’ll be overtaken!”

Ye Feng and Qingshan nodded, then flew into the Heavenly Prison Maze. Before long, they arrived within the maze and saw walls surrounding them. These walls were indestructible and reinforced by formations, rendering even Dao Realm-level experts unable to destroy them.

Meanwhile, the spiritual energy within the Heavenly Prison Maze was woefully scarce, just sufficient for sustaining life. Relying on this energy for cultivation was impossible...
