Chapter 322: Chapter 321: Easily Completing the Final Assessment The disciples of the Life-Seeking Sect, led by Qin Feng, burst into maniacal laughter. They all supported Xu Wendong, hoping he could become the Sect Leader. After all, This was the successor chosen by the previous Sect Leader. Seeing even the heavens helping Xu Wendong, they felt genuinely happy. Because everyone could see, Xu Wendong’s condition was very bad earlier. It was no exaggeration to say he had reached the end of his strength. If it weren’t for the sudden downpour, Xu Wendong would have found it difficult to persist until the end. "With support from above comes great assistance; without it, support is scarce." "Even the heavens help him, this is his destiny!" "Is it not also the destiny of our Life-Seeking Sect?" Qin Feng shouted excitedly, his face wet with indistinguishable rain or tears. Xu Wendong looked up at the sky. He let the dense rain hit his face. That crackling feeling made him feel very delighted. This rain came so timely. If it weren’t for the downpour, he might not have been able to hold on until the end. And now, The charcoal fire on the ground had been extinguished by the rain. Although there was still some residual heat, it could no longer affect him in any way. "How could this happen?" Han Li looked at the scene in front of him, unwilling to accept it. The rain had obviously stopped, and the sky had cleared. But why did it suddenly downpour? Was even heaven helping Xu Wendong? "Why is it like this?" Ye Qingxin gazed in shock at the upright figure in the heavy rain, her heart unable to calm down for a long time. She knew Xu Wendong better than anyone else, knowing he was a cultivator. Yes. She did not deny the strength of a cultivator, capable of being above all. However··· Cultivators defy the heavens and are considered sinners or traitors in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao. As such, cultivators never have a good end. But, Xu Wendong seemed different from the cultivators recorded in ancient books. Not only did he not receive suppression from the Heavenly Dao Rules, but he also received help from them. It was quite puzzling. Of course, the stronger Xu Wendong’s power became, the safer she felt, which enabled her to avenge the Blood Sea even more. The rain came suddenly. And passed quickly. It lasted less than three minutes. But just those three minutes of rainfall accumulated into a river, helping Xu Wendong hold on till the end, as he successfully passed the first round of assessment. Even so, the soles of his feet were horribly burned by the charcoal, trickling with fresh blood, looking miserable. He even felt his legs tremble as he stood there, as if they could not support his body. Thankfully, he was a cultivator and could mobilize True Qi to his feet, instantly extinguishing the burning pain on the soles. Han Li wore a fake smile: "Mister Xu, congratulations on passing the first test, but to become the Sect Leader, you will have to climb the Mountain of Knives!" "I hope you can pass the second test!" Hearing this. Everyone’s expressions turned grave. If Xu Wendong’s feet had not been burned, they believed that with Xu Wendong’s strength he could definitely climb the Mountain of Knives. But now, His feet were covered in blood. With such severe injuries, could he possibly climb the Mountain of Knives? "Please proceed to the backyard!" Han Li made a gesture of invitation and led the way to the backyard. "Sect Leader, how are you?" Mo Yuan looked at Xu Wendong anxiously. "To be honest, not very well." Xu Wendong shakily took out a lighter, wanting to light a cigarette, only to find it was soaked by rain. Helpless, he retrieved another dry cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a few puffs. To be honest. Since he started cultivation··· No! In strict terms, this was the most wretched he had ever been in his life. However, Since he had chosen to become the Sect Leader of Life-Seeking Sect, he would not give up easily. He was still counting on controlling the Life-Seeking Sect to contend against the Kyoto Xu Family. Xu Wendong, with a cigarette in his mouth: "Let’s go, finish the last challenge." He said, stepping forward toward the backyard, leaving a bloody footprint with every step. But even so, his posture was completely unaffected. His figure stood tall, like a divine weapon, proudly standing between heaven and earth. Not to mention other things, his sheer courage won over many people. Moments later, Everyone arrived at the knife-filled backyard. Looking at the towering platform about ten meters high, they all gasped, a chill running down their spines. Qin Feng’s face was dark, trembling with anger: "Han Li, just say if you want to kill someone. Why resort to such despicable methods?" As soon as these words came out, his brothers stood ready, seemingly willing to fight to the death at a moment’s notice. Han Li’s people were also readying for a fierce battle. "Qin Feng, don’t falsely accuse. When did I say I wanted to kill someone?" Han Li wore an innocent smile. Qin Feng whispered: "Our Life-Seeking Sect does have a rule about climbing the Mountain of Knives, descending into the Sea of Fire, but the so-called Mountain of Knives is built with countless kitchen knives." "Those knives are placed flat, with blades upward. Although it’s very difficult, it’s not impossible to accomplish." "But the Knife Mountain you set up is full of daggers." "All daggers, with sharp blades upward. Let me ask you, did you ever consider someone could succeed when you set up this Knife Mountain?" If they were kitchen knives, it would have been difficult but not insurmountable for martial masters, as long as the feet could tread steadily on them without causing any harm. But daggers were different; the smaller the contact surface, the greater the damage. This was like a needle versus a rounded stick. Both could be stabbed into the body, but the needle, though small, would cause great pain. Conversely, a stick would not cause any feeling. Moreover, Xu Wendong’s feet were already a bloody mess. If he accepted this challenge, it would be certain death! Han Li laughed heartily: "Qin Feng, times have changed. Times have changed, understand? Since times have changed, we cannot stick to the old ways; we must make some innovations!" "For example, this Knife Mountain before you, I find it quite interesting." "Though you think it cannot be completed, I believe Mister Xu will surely conquer it with his exceptional power." "And successfully seize the Great Seal at the top!" "Then." "I, Han, will certainly follow him faithfully throughout life and death, without regret!" Xu Wendong looked at the gleaming Knife Mountain, the dazzling blades, and the Great Seal wrapped in yellow fabric at the top, showing a slight enigmatic smile: "So, if I take that Great Seal with my bare hands, I’ve passed?" Han Li’s grin was mischievous: "Yes, as long as you seize that Great Seal, you will have passed the assessment and become the thirty-fourth Sect Leader of the Life-Seeking Sect!" "But, being as severely injured as you are, continuing the challenge would mean certain death. I truly suggest you give up, exam···" Before he finished speaking, Xu Wendong bent his knees, then leaped into the air, soaring more than ten meters up under the shocked gazes of many. He was like a Blue Hawk, grabbing the yellow bundle atop the Knife Mountain, and then lightly landed in front of a dumbfounded Han Li. The man picked at his ear, curiously looking at Han Li: "What were you just about to suggest I do?"
