Chapter 269 The Final Choice! Enter! Habitual Thinking! Encounter!Chapter 269 The Final Choice! Enter! Habitual Thinking! Encounter!
Old Rabbit noticed Qin Fang’s hesitation. Her eyes were cloudy, and after a short silence, she slowly said, ”As your guide, I naturally prefer that you make a more rational choice. That would actually be better for me. But...”

It paused slightly at this point, and Qin looked at it with a lowered mind.

“But your situation is special… It’s only been a little over two years since your world protection period ended, and right now, you can only execute the third strike of the Xunfeng Nine Slashes. You need to comprehend at least the sixth strike before you can truly come into contact with the laws… before you can achieve your goal of entering this place.”

”The comprehension of laws is not something that can be achieved overnight. The comprehension of ultimate skills is even more like step by step, each step a great leap forward... Many people can comprehend the first three levels quickly because those who can enter the God’s Dungeon need to clear the ’Abyss Dungeon’ solo, and their class must be at least Epic... or even mostly Legendary. As long as you choose the right direction for cultivating ultimate skills and make it compatible with your class, you can almost always master it quickly.”

”But starting from the fourth level, the difficulty of cultivating ultimate techniques begins to increase sharply. Not only do you need more advanced source energy cultivation techniques and more advanced meridian cultivation methods, but your understanding of the ultimate technique itself will also enter a new level... This level is called ’intention’.”

“Unless there is a fragment within the body that has a specific direction for cultivation that can provide a backup plan, many people are blocked at this step and can hardly make any further progress... And this fourth level of law fragment corresponds to the skills of the ‘Legendary Class’ in the Myriad Realms Battlefield class panel.”

”And this is only the fourth level.”

”The most crucial aspects of cultivating the Path of Laws lie in the fifth and sixth levels...”

”The fifth level is the initial contact with the laws. The sixth level is the beginning of comprehending some of the laws.”

”Although you have an unexpectedly large number of law fragments in your body, you certainly don’t have any law fragments related to the fifth and sixth levels... because those are law fragments belonging exclusively to gods.”

”This is why that profession is so important, being called ’divine’.”

It paused for a moment before slowly saying, ”This is the first time you’ve actively chosen a practical assessment, and as I told you before... the scoring system becomes increasingly stringent as you progress. And the opportunity to obtain rewards from the Myriad Realms Battlefield... is extremely rare and precious. I hope you understand that.”

That’s all I have to say. Make your choice.

It stopped talking after that.

Qin Fang also fell silent.

After a long while, he let out a soft breath and made a decision.

”Since that’s the case... then let’s make it a life-or-death challenge.”

He still chose the life-or-death difficulty level.

On the one hand, it was naturally because of what Old Rabbit said.

On the other hand... it’s about some of his previous speculations about the Myriad Realms Battle Domain.

My first real-world experience came a month after I began my actual training.

This is a fixed practical test... The purpose of the Myriad Realms Battlefield is to familiarize those being guided with practical combat and to test their cultivation and combat talents.

And for every test that followed, I had to apply for it myself.

It is known that the Myriad Realms Battlefield is a divine instance created to cultivate cultivators of the laws... so the next step is naturally to select even more outstanding cultivators.

The opportunities are equal.

Everyone has the opportunity to choose.

But what you ultimately gain depends entirely on your own choices.

He could certainly choose the relatively safer ’hard mode’... but that choice would obviously disappoint the Myriad Realms Battle Domain.

...Qin Fang, of course, didn’t care whether the Myriad Realms Battle Domain was disappointed or not.

But as I said before... when you are powerless to change the rules, you can only go along with them and try to gain more benefits for yourself within those rules.

The Battlefield of Myriad Realms was something he couldn’t contend with, and it contained something he desperately needed.

Then he can only follow the rules of the Myriad Realms Battle Domain.

He needs to become someone ’favored’ by the Myriad Realms Battle Domain; only in this way can he rapidly grow stronger with the help of the Myriad Realms Battle Domain.

Moreover... this time he chose the relatively easy option.

What about next time?

There are options too?

Does that mean he will definitely not encounter any danger in the future?
Or do they immediately shrink back whenever they encounter danger?

Sometimes, taking a step back is a sign of wisdom.

But to keep choosing to back down... that’s cowardice.

Of course, there’s an even more important point...

”The Battlefield of Myriad Realms is about pushing every guide to the limit... not about making all the guides die.”

”So even a life-or-death test is definitely not a dead end.”

”I have now perfectly absorbed all the resources from before. My source energy has reached 100 units, I have completed the second stage of the Meridian Opening Realm, and I have completed the third stage of the Xunfeng Nine Slashes... This is the limit of what I can cultivate at present. There is no way to advance further.”

”As long as you are careful, you can definitely pass the life-or-death level combat test.”

”There is pressure, but it’s definitely not a hopeless situation.”

”So... we can take a gamble!”

Qin Fang’s gaze became focused.

When he made his choice, a hint of appreciation flashed in the old rabbit’s eyes, and then he nodded: ”As you wish.”

It stood up, walked to the familiar doorway, and turned to Qin Fang, saying, ”After entering, you must survive for 72 hours to complete the test. But if possible... try to kill as many corrupted individuals as possible, as this will greatly help your score. But be careful... the panel will be unusable; you can only face everything with your true cultivation level.”

Qin Fang stepped forward, took a deep breath, and nodded.

The old rabbit said no more, and with a flick of its finger, ripples appeared. Qin Fang, his gaze calm, walked inside.

……

A dimly lit world, a giant, scarlet moon.

It was still an apocalyptic scene.

Qin Fang stepped inside and looked around.

Sure enough, a huge red ’Banned’ sign appeared on the panel... The sign was so red it was almost black.

Qin Fang tried it, silently calling out ”Unseal” in his mind... but naturally, nothing changed.

His eyes flickered slightly as he looked up to survey his surroundings.

Suddenly, a booming sound, like thunder, rang out.

Qin Fang was startled and subconsciously turned his head to look.

Hundreds of meters away, a colossal creature could be seen wandering through this post-apocalyptic wasteland...

Qin Fang’s expression immediately hardened... He hadn’t expected to run into him so soon after arriving.

...It’s the same corrupted monster as the last boss in the previous test!

The two sides were about 400 meters apart.

Qin Fang was observing when, in the next moment, the monster suddenly turned its head and made direct eye contact with him.

When Qin Fang saw the stunned look in the monster’s eyes, he was immediately startled.

Oops!

The next moment, the dark figure blurred and howled as it charged directly at Qin Fang!

The speed was extremely fast.

The distance of over 400 meters was covered in an instant!

”grass!”

Even Qin Fang was startled and couldn’t help but swear, then retreated without hesitation.

boom! ! !
Almost the instant he retreated, the monster four hundred meters away unleashed its massive fist at the spot where he had been standing, instantly unleashing a violent gust of wind that shattered the ground and caused rocks to crumble!

”Damn it!”

Qin Fang’s face flashed with annoyance... Damn it, just because I glanced at you from 400 meters away, you’re going to mess with me?
The next moment, a thought crossed his mind, and he was about to summon his longsword to fight the monster.

But the next second...

”Holy crap! I forgot to bring my weapon!”

Qin Fang was completely dumbfounded.

Looking at his empty right hand.

Damn!

His expression changed drastically, and he cursed himself for being so stupid as to forget something so important!
In life-or-death combat tests, the control panel will be disabled! Naturally, you won’t be able to use your inventory either!
Qin Fang cursed inwardly... The panel backpack was too useful; he had gotten used to taking out weapons from it at any time.

Little did I expect that this habit would lead me into this awkward situation!
...No weapons!
And it can be said that ninety percent of his skill lies in the sword.

How is this played?
The grumpy rabbit, having missed its first attack, leaped up again with incredible agility.

Its height was probably tens of meters, pressing down on Qin Fang like Mount Tai, its massive body almost obscuring the sun... Imagine a building jumping up and smashing into you. It pounded with its fists, as if it wanted to smash Qin Fang into a pulp!

Unable to use his weapon and the Nine Slashes of Wind, Qin Fang’s face turned grim. He could only lightly tap his feet to accelerate his retreat, moving with incredible agility, and flashed away once more...

boom! ! !
A deafening roar, like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting open.

The ground was hammered open by this blow, creating a crack, as if a small earthquake had occurred!
But Qin Fang still managed to slip away.

”The speed is significantly faster than last time... and the neural reaction speed can keep up as well!”

Qin Fang clearly noticed the change in himself compared to the last time.

Last time, when faced with the same monster, he dodged it in a very awkward manner.

The first time, I barely managed to dodge it; the second time, I had to use my skill directly, and it ended in failure.

However, after Qin Fang practiced the second-stage Source Energy Cultivation Technique, his gene cells evolved once again, further enhancing his nerve reaction speed.

The 100 units of energy gave him plenty of stamina.

The second stage of meridian activation made his physique stronger, allowing him to unleash even greater speed in an instant.

It is relatively easy to deal with now.

However, without weapons, he has no way to fight back.

Seeing the furious rabbit attack for the third time, Qin Fang didn’t hesitate any longer and turned around to run at full speed!
boom!
With a stomp of his foot, the ground cracked instantly, and his figure shot out like an arrow.

Powerful!

At first, the grumpy rabbit wanted to pursue him.

But it’s clear that Qin Fang is now a cut above it.

After a short chase, they had already been outmaneuvered by Qin Fang.

The grumpy rabbit let out a roar, but in the end, it could only stop helplessly.

Qin Fang’s figure disappeared into the post-apocalyptic ruins...

……

Once he was certain he had shaken off his pursuers, Qin Fang finally let out a sigh of relief and stopped.

Looking around...

This place doesn’t look much different from the place we just left. It’s a vast wilderness with slightly undulating hills. The ground is barren, and there are circular pits that look like they’ve been hit by a meteorite.

Qin Fang frowned and looked around.

The faint roars of beasts could be heard from all directions... indicating that there was more than one monster in the vicinity.

”What should we do? Without weapons, there’s no way to fight these monsters.”

Qin Fang was in a dilemma.

Habitual thinking is indeed harmful!

Having gotten used to the panel and backpack, he was suddenly unable to use it... He really couldn’t figure it out for a while.

However, upon closer reflection, it’s understandable.

After all, he was caught in a dilemma at the time, whether to enter into ’difficulty’ or ’life and death’... This choice made him forget to think about anything else for a moment.

When he came to his senses... Old Rabbit had already opened the door for him.

So naturally, he entered based on his ambition and resolute thoughts at the time.

They completely forgot about weapons.

And now...

It’s too late to regret.

”But actually, it’s not very useful to bring it... After all, an epic weapon will shatter after using the Wind Slash Nine-Slash once. With my inventory and panel locked, even if I bring the weapon... I only have one chance to strike.”

”You can’t exactly bring in a bunch of knives, can you?”

Qin Fang can only try to salvage the situation himself now.

After a long while, he let out a soft sigh, stopped dwelling on the matter, and began to seriously consider what to do next.

”To survive here for three days... that’s not a long time, food isn’t a problem... it’s only three days, we can go without food.”

He currently has 100 units of source energy within him.

The purpose of consuming food is to obtain energy.

After becoming a true cultivator, Qin Fang had actually entered the realm of ’abstaining from grains’.

They no longer need to obtain energy through food.

After meditating for a while, the source energy flows in continuously.

My stomach feels empty and uncomfortable.

So he usually eats something.

But in this life-or-death situation, this little problem is naturally not a problem.

”After the second stage of meridian opening, the physique is greatly improved, and even the genetic level changes... The need for water is no longer a necessity.”

Source energy cultivation is a form of evolution at the genetic level.

Water and food are necessities for ordinary people.

But it’s no longer a necessity for Qin Fang.

In fact, when his internal energy reaches 10 units, he can live well without eating or drinking.

Their survival ability has been dramatically improved.

This obviously helped him a lot... Otherwise, if he had to find food and water during those 72 hours, the difficulty would have increased even more.

”Survival is not the problem, but if it’s just about survival... the final evaluation won’t be high.”

”Although the baseline is ’Excellent-’... it would be a huge loss to only get the baseline. After all... the village chief said that the evaluation standards will be higher as we go on. This time the baseline for the ’life-or-death’ level is ’Excellent-’, but next time it might only be ’Good+’ or even ’Good’...”

Qin Fang’s eyes flickered.

Therefore, you not only need to survive, but also kill as many monsters as possible to improve your score.

He was very curious whether he could achieve an ’excellent’ grade.

Even ’U+’?
According to Lao Tu’s description, ”Excellent+” should be the highest rating.

This is likely his only chance to receive the highest rating.

and so……

Thinking of this, Qin Fang took a deep breath.

Gradually, my thoughts became clearer.

”First, I need to find a safe place to stay... Although I only have three days, I’ll be fighting afterwards, so I need to think about restoring my energy. These monsters roam around, and if I just find a random place to restore my energy, I’ll likely encounter another monster, which would be disastrous...”

The monster charged straight at them after they made eye contact from 400 meters away.

There are countless similar monsters roaming around here now... and there might even be stronger ones.

In this situation, directly restoring energy in the wilderness would undoubtedly be suicidal.

Therefore, a relatively secluded area needs to be found for the restoration.

”Then... it’s about finding a usable weapon...”

Qin Fang frowned.

Without weapons, he had no way to kill these enormous monsters.

But weapons...

Can it be found?
It’s really hard to say.

But this is the real planet Ribit, where a great war once took place... Finding some weapons shouldn’t be too much of a problem, right?
Qin Fang thought uncertainly.

Finally, he took a deep breath.

”Never mind, let’s just walk and see... Let’s find a temporary place to stay first.”

Thinking it over, he looked around, quickly determined a direction, and carefully moved there...
