Chapter five hundred and sixty-ninth trial stone steps
The blood is the color of fairy gold, crystal clear.
If you carefully sense it, you can still detect traces of mysterious charm contained in that wisp of blood, which seems extremely incredible.
Tsk!
What's even more astonishing is that this wisp of blood is constantly struggling between Su Yi's palms, as if it has life, and the power it releases is even more powerful.
With Su Yi's skills, he needed to use a confinement technique called "Mountains and Rivers in the Palm" to firmly suppress this ray of blood.
"This seems to be... the blood of an innate divine being, containing a trace of divine aura..."
Su Yi was also surprised inwardly.
Immediately, he thought more, "If there is an innate divine object in Mount Sumeru, it can indeed resist the erosion of the Dark Ancient Forbidden City."
"However, innate divine objects are treasures born from the origin of the world. They can be encountered but cannot be sought. If such treasures were originally controlled by the Xumi Sacred Pavilion, there would be no need to worry about the influence of the Ancient Forbidden City."
"But unfortunately, Xumi Sacred Pavilion was destroyed in the long river of time. This is a bit abnormal."
"Could it be said that this innate divine object in Mount Xumi did not originally belong to the Holy Pavilion of Xumi?"
"It's interesting. There must be a big mystery hidden here!"
Although he did not understand the mystery, the discovery in front of him aroused Su Yi's curiosity.
He turned his hand to completely suppress the strand of golden blood and put it away.
"Brother Su, what was that just now?"
Wen Xinzhao asked.
Everyone else also looked at Su Yi.
Especially Mei Yanbai and others seemed to have found a backbone.
"We're not sure yet, but maybe we'll see it later."
Su Yi said, looking at Mei Yanbai and others, and said: "Given your strength, it is better to evacuate from here."
Mei Yanbai said bitterly: "We are trapped here, even if we want to leave, we can't."
Su Yi took out a blank jade slip, engraved a route map on it with his spiritual mind, and said: "Follow the route above and you can leave."
Mei Yanbai quickly took it with both hands, as if he had found a treasure, and said gratefully: "Thank you, fellow Taoist Su, for your help!"
Feng Zidu, Qian Yun and Nie Li also saluted together: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Su!"
Everyone was excited and happy.
Seeing this, Su Yi couldn't help but joked: "I robbed your treasure, so I should help you."
Mei Yanbai and others were all embarrassed and chatting endlessly.
"Brother Su, one code equals one code. As you said, it was a fight of chance. There is no right or wrong. If we lose, we should hand over the treasures we carry."
Taking a deep breath, Mei Yanbai said, "This time, Brother Su ignored the previous grudges and pointed out a way for us to survive. It's such a great kindness that we can't thank you enough, so why would we care about the unpleasant things in the past."
Fengzi and others all nodded.
Witnessing the scene where Mei Yanbai and others took the initiative to turn their hostility into friendship, they were very happy when they heard that Xin Zhao was in love.
Having fewer enemies and rivals is not a bad thing after all.
"Let's go."
Su Yi didn't delay any longer and was about to move on with Wen Xinzhao and others.
Qian Yun suddenly spoke, with a hesitant look on his face: "Fellow Taoist Su, I have a gracious request. If you meet Dou Kou on the way down the road, can you... also help her?"
The image of that charming girl appeared in Su Yi's mind, and he also thought of the extremely rare talent that the other party was born with.
He immediately said: "If we encounter it, I will not stand by and watch."
Qian Yun breathed a sigh of relief, bowed and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist!"
Soon, Su Yi and his party disappeared deep into the mist.
Mei Yanbai and others took the jade slips given by Su Yi and headed towards Mount Xumi.
An hour later.
Xumi Mountain, halfway up the mountain.
Su Yi and his party arrived here smoothly.
What comes into view is a cluster of buildings, but they have all collapsed and turned into ruins.
As far as the eye can see, there is no grass growing and everything is withered and desolate.
"Didn't a tragic battle take place here?"
Wen Xinzhao said in surprise.
Ge Qian said disappointedly: "Regardless of whether there was a war or not, how can there be any chance in such a dilapidated ghost place?"
"How can such things as chance be commonplace?"
Su Yi looked up at the heights and said, "However, I am quite sure that there is an unprecedented opportunity in this mountain."
With that said, he walked towards the ruins.
Through the ruins, there is a straight path leading to the top of the mountain, which is ten feet wide and covered with layers of black stone steps.
When Su Yi and the others arrived, they immediately saw battles taking place on the very high stone steps.
Contemporary talents such as Fo Zichenlu, Li Handeng, Jiang Li, and Yu Wenshu are scattered on the stone steps at different heights.
Each of them is using all their strength, sacrificing treasures, and fighting hard.
But the strange thing is that they can't see their opponents!
It's as if they are fighting with the air...
"this……"
Wen Xinzhao and others were stunned.
"These are the trial stone steps. Each level is covered with the Great Way War Realm. Stepping on it is like entering a battlefield, where you will encounter opponents transformed from the Great Way War Realm."
Su Yi could see the details of this stone staircase at a glance, "The higher the stone steps go, the more powerful the battle realms are. This means that the higher you go, the stronger the opponents you encounter."
"Generally speaking, only the imperial sect can open up such a 'testing ground', specially prepared for the successors of the sect, so as to temper their moral conduct and combat power."
"Of course, such a trial ground will also test a monk's perseverance, soul and wisdom. Many times, assessments for sect disciples will also be conducted in places like this."
"For example, if you pass different levels of trial stone steps, you can get the corresponding identity and status, as well as generous rewards, etc."
"The assessment and screening of the inner sect, true disciples, core disciples, and closed disciples can also be done on this trial stone step."
After hearing this, they all understood it completely and couldn't help but be eager to give it a try.
Places like this have almost never been seen in the outside world!
For them, this is no different than finding a place of opportunity to hone their strength.
After all, according to Su Yi, only the imperial lineage has the ability to open up such a training ground.
This also means that even on the Cangqing Continent 30,000 years ago, only the top imperial realm forces had something similar.
This can certainly be called an opportunity!
It was also at this time that Wen Xinzhao and the others realized how unique the battle that Fozi Chenlu and others were engaged in was.
"This place is indeed a good place for you to hone your strength and improve your Taoism."
Su Yi said, "Besides, it's not dangerous. You can give it a try."
Wen Xinzhao and others were already eager to give it a try, and they all readily agreed upon hearing the words.
"Brother Su, what about you?"
Yue Shi Chan asked.
This girl in white, who is as cold as ice, has always cherished words like gold and rarely chatted.
But when it comes to matters involving Su Yi, he seems extremely concerned.
Su Yi smiled slightly and said: "Like you, I also want to climb the trial steps, but the purpose is to go to the top of the mountain. You go quickly, and I will see how your respective combat capabilities are first."
It was just a sentence, but it made Wen's heart shine, and Yue Shichan quietly had a competitive thought in her heart.
"Sister Shichan, do we want to have a test?"
Wen Xinzhao smiled and said.
The girl has a graceful figure, simple and elegant clothes, natural beauty, and compelling aura.
"good."
Yue Shichan only nodded, her cold expression calm and ethereal, like a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world.
As for Ge Qian, he was ignored by the two of them...
Ge Qian consciously remained silent. With his cautious temperament, he would never compete on such a matter.
Immediately, all three of them took action.
Su Yi put his hands behind his back and watched quietly for a while.
Then he turned his palm, took out the strand of trapped golden blood, glanced around, and said to himself:
"If you dare to cause trouble on the trial stone steps, don't blame me, Mr. Su, for being rude to you."
After that, he put away the ray of blood and stepped up to the first stone steps.
boom!
Following a strange wave of power, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
Su Yi appeared in a dark and vast world.
There is only a huge Taoist platform standing alone here, and there is nothing else in the vast surroundings.
Su Yi strolled onto the platform.
Whoosh!
A strange fluctuation appeared on the platform, and a figure suddenly appeared.
This figure was dressed in Taoist robes, with a gold ribbon wrapped around his waist, and an ancient sword on his back. His appearance was vague, but his aura was filled with the cultivation of the early stage of the Star Gathering Realm.
This is a "gatekeeper" transformed by the power of the great road.
Su Yi was not surprised by this.
The gatekeepers on the avenues and gates distributed on the trial stone steps will all have the same level of cultivation as the gatekeepers.
The higher the stone steps are, the guardian's cultivation will not change, but his strength will continue to grow.
People like Yue Shichan and others will also encounter similar situations.
In this way, if the gatekeepers and gatebreakers have the same level of cultivation, they can play a role in tempering their moral conduct and honing their strength in head-to-head competition.
If the gatekeeper is too powerful, the trial steps will lose the meaning of their existence.
"Could this image and appearance be left behind by a certain emperor-level figure in Xumi Shengge?"
Su Yi looked at the gatekeeper opposite, thoughtfully.
The refining of the trial steps must have the power of the imperial realm.
In this way, we can set up a great battle realm for monks of different realms.
The guy in front of me was wearing a Taoist robe, carrying an ancient sword on his back, and a gold ribbon around his waist, although his appearance was extremely vague.
But Su Yi knew very well that this image must have been left by the emperor-level figure who refined the trial steps.
"I would like to see how powerful the early Star Gathering Realm was in the eyes of an emperor like you back then. I hope... you won't let me down too much..."
Su Yi shook his head and didn't waste any more time.
Whoosh!
He reached out and grabbed it, and a sword quietly condensed in the void.
Almost at the same time, the gatekeeper on the opposite side raised his hand and pulled out the ancient sword from behind, and his aura suddenly became stronger.
Su Yi stepped forward and slashed out with his sword.
boom!
The gatekeepers on the opposite side didn't have time to take action, and their figures were cut into two halves like paper and disappeared suddenly.
