Ten thousand thunderbolts strike simultaneously, with bolt after bolt of lightning slashing downward.

  And a certain cultivator suddenly rose into the air, each displaying their own techniques. Some had circles of golden light appearing around their bodies, while others were shrouded in a divine dragon's illusory shadow, just like Ji Ning being surrounded by the Water and Fire Lotus didn't seem particularly eye-catching.

  "Go."

  "Go."

  A white-robed youth stood on the Azure Dragon puppet, which was coiled and lying down, its body occasionally twitching and its sharp claws swiping in all directions. Its tail also danced wildly. For a time, not a single bolt of lightning could get close.

  "The Green Dragon swings its tail."

  "The Green Dragon Soars into the Sky."

  The white-robed youth occasionally muttered to himself, his eyes full of frenzy, he was completely immersed in controlling the green dragon puppet, looking extremely excited and thrilled.

  "One half of the puppet army." The black-haired man in mid-air gave the order.

  In an instant, more than 400 dragon head puppets, facing downwards, rose up to the sky and began pouring down bolts of lightning towards Ji Ning and company.

  "Great, cool, really cool!" The white-robed youth became even more excited and enthusiastic. The green dragon puppet he controlled was fully displaying its characteristics, exerting super strong combat power, easily blocking all the incoming lightning attacks.

  "Boom!"

  The dragon's tail was just a strip, and it made several lightning bolts fly sideways, and beside it was Ji Ning.

  Ji Ning, surrounded by the Water and Fire Lotus, held the Twin Swords of the Northern Darkness. Those lightning bolts that managed to penetrate the obstruction of the Water and Fire Lotus were easily dispersed by Ji Ning's two swords.

  Ji Ning's sword light was like water, natural and effortless, easily blocking all the lightning.

  "Huh?" Ji Ning's expression changed.

  Because three thunderbolts suddenly struck, too close, and arrived in an instant. Leaving Ji Ning, who was unprepared, somewhat caught off guard.

  "A drop of water doesn't leak." Ji Ning's swordsmanship immediately changed, and he parried the lightning bolt while glancing at the white-robed youth beside him, who had just affected him earlier.

  The white-robed youth was now looking at Ji Ning with a hint of embarrassment on his face, and he transmitted his voice: "Sorry, sorry, unintentional."

  Ji Ning felt a bit better towards the white-robed youth, who had deliberately transmitted an apology at this critical moment. Ji Ning also transmitted back: "It's okay."

  "I'll be paying attention next time." The white-robed youth transmitted his voice again.

  "Be careful, soon all the puppets will attack together." Ji Ning smiled.

  The two of them were still exchanging blows, and it was clear that neither had any intention of backing down yet.

  Keep flying up!

  The dragon heads above became clearer, eight hundred and ten dragon heads densely covered the top, this wave of people rushing to the sky had already knocked down two people... Only eight figures continued to fly up.

  "Puppet Great Array, all of them!" The black-haired man above gave another order.

  Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

  In an instant, it was as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had cracked open. All the dragon heads were now charging towards this region, and for a moment, countless lightning bolts surrounded everything... As far as the eye could see, everything was bathed in a blue-green electric glow, clearly having reached a state of saturation.

  "Lotus in the fire!"

  Ji Ning's eyes flashed sharply once.

  The surrounding blooming water fire lotus flowers continuously bloom one layer after another, the old ones are damaged, and new ones are born. And Ji Ning's double swords were fully displayed at this time, and all around Ji Ning were sword lights... No lightning could penetrate Ji Ning's swordsmanship defense.

  Charge!

  In just one blink of an eye, Jing Ning had already traversed this saturated attack zone.

  Whoosh!

  With a swift flight, he directly flew to the front of the Dragon Head Formation. Only then did everything become clear. Ji Ning saw with one glance the six Nascent Soul Daoists beside him.

  "Boom~~~" A majestic and powerful green dragon soared into the sky, and at the same time, a white-robed young man standing on top of it gazed at Ji Ning who had rushed out first, revealing a friendly smile.

  Whoosh! Whoosh!

  Ji Ning immediately flew to the entrance of the cave, and the white-robed youth also flew over to retrieve the puppet.

  "Boom!" "Splash!" "Burst!"

  With a loud explosion and angry roars, three more figures rushed out of the saturated lightning attack and charged into the cave.

  The cave was over a dozen zhang wide, and the white-robed youth walked over to him: "My name is Mu Zixiao. I'm truly ashamed, it's also because my skills are not refined, otherwise I wouldn't have affected you, Dao brother."

  "My name is Ji Ning." Ji Ning also smiled, Baidu Mang Huang Ji first "No wonder you after all previously was Bai Men Pai, which can be slightly careless."

  The young man in white nodded repeatedly.

  Ji Ning clearly felt the youth in white's slight immaturity, his face looking younger than Ji Ning himself. He estimated that he had broken through to the First Heaven at an even earlier age and immediately asked: "Mu brother, I am sixteen this year, how old are you?"

  "Fourteen." said Mu Zishuo in his white robe.

  At that moment, the three young people who also rushed into the cave around them changed their faces. The expressions of the three looking at Ji Ning and Mu Zixiao were instantly extremely complicated... Monsters, monsters, one is sixteen, and the other is only fourteen! They are just a little older than us, yet they broke through the Thunderbolt Puppet Array faster than us.

  That black-clothed man with injuries on his body stared at Ji Ning and said, "This Ji Ning is only sixteen years old, yet he has cultivated the Violet Palace Realm in the Nine Heavens Diagram. Moreover, he easily broke through to enter. I had to charge twice before I could get in."

  He started alone in the final and finished with regretful failure.

  Seeing him fail, Ji Ning and others rushed up one by one.

  He immediately followed Ji Ning and the others to charge, and then followed the green dragon puppet under the white-robed youth 'Muzi Shuo' to make a difficult breakthrough. With the green dragon puppet blocking above, he was slightly relieved, just a little bit relieved, and he still came in with injuries.

  "It's really tough." The white-robed young man, Mu Zishuo, looked down and sighed, "This Thunder Puppet Array is indeed difficult, worthy of the Black and White Academy."

  Ji Ning was also looking down at what lay below.

  Below, one after another, the figures of cultivators rose into the sky and continued to rush upwards.

  "It's tough, but there are many geniuses in this vast land of Anping County." Ji Ning said softly.

  Whoosh!

  Another figure burst through the lightning barrier, drawing an arc as it descended to the entrance of the cave. It was a purple-robed girl with a face as cold as ice. Looking into her eyes... it's clear that this haughtiness was naturally formed from a young age. However, everyone who can enter the cave at this moment is a genius.

  A moment.

  "A single stick of incense has arrived." The black-haired youth shouted loudly, and instantly the 810 dragon heads stopped simultaneously.

  Those cultivators who are still striving to rush upwards will continue to fly higher.

  "Get out of here!"

  The black-haired young man suddenly shouted loudly.

  His eyes suddenly became extremely terrifying, Baidu's wild and desolate chronicles first launched a powerful divine sense wave that swept over the lower realm. In an instant, the cultivators who were about to fly higher in the sky stopped momentarily, then one by one fell from the sky.

  "Divine sense?" Ji Ning's eyes lit up "It's a divine sense attack!"

  Those cultivators were affected at that time, and their eyes all became dazed, falling from the air, apparently their divine souls had been affected.

  "Could it be that the Divine Sense also has an attacking method?" Ji Ning's heart suddenly itched, his strongest aspect was indeed his divine soul, which could already rival those of the Yuanshen Dao people. Moreover, relying on the "Nüwa Diagram" visualization technique, his divine soul grew stronger every day, but previously he had only been able to use his divine sense to control objects to assist himself.

  Never heard of a divine sense that can directly attack someone's soul with a magical method!

  One's own consciousness sweeps over others, and others may not even perceive it; one's own consciousness also cannot attack others.

  "Divine Sense Attack?"

  "How did you attack?"

  "I've never heard of it, must be a profound technique. Since this black-haired youth can use it, the Black and White Academy probably has such a divine recognition technique." Ji Ning made up his mind in an instant, no matter what, he had to learn such a technique.

  ……

  The six figures, including the black-haired youth, all flew into the cave. The six people had varying appearances - some were slender and elegant, others short and stout, and one was cold and indifferent. Each of them exuded an aura that was shockingly powerful.

  Ji Ning and nine others all simultaneously bowed and said in unison: "Greetings, senior."

  "Hmm." Six former Shinto priests gazed at Ji Ning and the other nine people, with many of their eyes lingering on Ji Ning for a long time.

  "He." The black-haired young man pointed at one of them, a blue-robed youth with a high crown and flickering eyes.

  The youth in blue changed his expression and said repeatedly: "Senior, I am Donghe Xunxu."

  Ji Ning took a glance at this person.

  Donghe?

  That's one of the eight major powers!

  "Donghe?" The black-haired man sneered, "No matter where you come from, the first release of Baidu's Manghuang Ji is Anping North Mountain, and even the royal family of the Great Xia Dynasty. If you want to enter my Black and White Academy, you must follow the rules of my Black and White Academy. You used a Dao symbol, which goes against the rules. Get out."

  The young man in blue with a high crown gritted his teeth and immediately transformed into a flowing light that flew out of the cave entrance.

  "Did you use a Dao symbol?" Ji Ning looked at the Donghe clan's disciple in surprise. When the sect recruited disciples, there were requirements listed next to the entrance, which prohibited the use of Dao symbols and other external forces. One must rely on their own strength to pass the test. Those who relied on external forces would be eliminated.

  "Are you Mu Zishuo?" The black-haired young man turned to look at the white-robed youth, with a smile on his face.

  "Senior." Muzi Shuo said respectfully.

  "Fourteen years old, not bad, bring out your puppet and let me take a look." the black-haired man said.

  "Yes." Muzi Shuo also knew the rules, and using puppets was limited. Practitioners of puppetry who walked the path of cultivation... If they had to bring a puppet through a trial, that puppet must not have wisdom! The puppet's interior could not have a yuan force core either.

  Must rely on the cultivator's own input of yuan force to control.

  Actually, people like Hei Fa Nian had already discerned the truth from falsehood when they watched earlier, and this inspection is just a formality.

  One inspection.

  "Uh-huh." The black-haired young man nodded "Okay."

  Muzi Shuo then put away the Qinglong puppet.

  "You eight people." The black-haired man's gaze swept over Ji Ning and the other seven. "You have passed the most basic screening, next is the final screening. If you pass again, you will be a disciple of Hei Bai Academy. Baidu Mang Huang Ji first published. If you can't pass, I'm afraid you'll have to go back."

  "Final screening?"

  Ji Ning was secretly shocked.

  Even that black-clad man from the Seventh Heaven of the Crimson Bright Diagram barely made it in by taking a shortcut, and yet there was still another screening process ahead.

  "Chong Er." A white-clad woman among the six Yuan Shen Taoists spoke up.

  The young man in black bowed and said, "Auntie."

  "You've cultivated 'The Nine Heavens Diagram of Crimson Brightness' to the ninth level, you'll definitely be able to enter my Black and White Academy. But now you're only at the seventh level..." The white-robed woman shook her head.

  "I can't wait any longer, cultivating up to the ninth level will take at least ten or twenty years." The young man in black said anxiously.

  "The last barrier you can't pass." The woman in white said.

  "Auntie, I'll give it a try." The young man in black gritted his teeth and said. At this point, how could he easily give up?

  This made the woman in white shake her head.
