Chapter 226
The three of them walked to the foot of the mountain.
Suddenly, a strange beast suddenly rushed out of the stone forest. It had red scales all over its body, four legs and a single horn, and was surrounded by green flames. Its divine appearance was truly magical.
The beast's pupils were blazing, and its pair of green eyes stared at Han Yuan intently. The horn on its head suddenly lit up with a green light.
Yu Muchu's expression changed, and he shouted,"King Qingli, what are you going to do? This is a disciple of our Tianshen Sect!"
The beast snorted coldly, and its horn shone with a more dazzling green light:"There is an aura on him that I hate!"
Chang Ye asked in confusion,"What aura?"
The beast stared at Han Yuan for a long time, but it didn't seem to find anything, and said coldly,"Another drunkard who sneaked in from the fairyland!"
It stepped on the green flames and turned away angrily.
Han Yuan looked at the beast going away with a confused look on his face, and whispered,"What's going on?"
Chang Ye shook his head and said,"I don't know. King Qingli was inexplicably irritable some time ago. Maybe he was too irritable when he woke up. You don't have to worry about danger. It won't attack the disciples of Tianshen Sect!"
Han Yuan felt relieved after hearing this. He felt a strong threat of death from the beast. The strength of the beast was terrifying.
The three continued to move forward.
After walking for a while, Han Yuan saw some buildings scattered all over the stone peak.
Looking up, he saw a very conspicuous large stone staircase halfway up the mountain, extending all the way to the top of the mountain. The steps were estimated to be one mile wide and light gold, very eye-catching. When he looked outside, he couldn't see anything. At a certain moment, he suddenly saw a stone staircase. At the end of the stone steps on the top of the mountain, a stone temple seemed to be vaguely visible.
He hesitated whether to ask the two elders next to him about the origin of this staircase. Suddenly, he noticed that a team of about a hundred people stopped at the entrance of a plaque in front of them that read [Inner Sect of Tianshen Sect].
Han Yuan unexpectedly saw a familiar figure in this group of people. It was Yan Guilai!
Why is this guy here? He ran faster than them!
Li Muqiu understood the doubt in his eyes and explained,"The transmission channel leading to Tianshen Mountain restricts cultivators above the fusion to transmit. He directly transmitted here."
Han Yuan was stunned. In this way, he accompanied the two fusion elders and walked for more than ten days in vain.
When the three approached the entrance, they heard the voice of an old man.
The old man saw Yu Muqiu and Changye, paused, and nodded to greet the two.
Yu Muqiu and Changye also nodded and smiled back.
The old man looked at Han Yuan for a while and then continued to talk.
The crowd also noticed the approach of the three people, but seeing that the elders did not say anything, they naturally could not say anything more.
Yu Muqiu introduced him through voice transmission:"This is Elder Yu Mu, a cultivator from the mortal world, and now he is in charge of the reception of newcomers."
Han Yuan nodded in understanding.
He also listened carefully to what the old man said.
Elder Yu Mu said in a strange voice:"……You have seen those steps on the mountainside, right? That is the Long Stairway to Immortality, one of the three treasures of Tianshen Mountain. Don’t think it’s easy to climb just because there are a total of 10,000 steps. If you can step on the tenth step, it means you have the qualifications to become an immortal!"
"Therefore, the assessment standard for the inner sect is the tenth step!
After you become a first-class genius in the outer sect, you will have a chance to come here to practice for thirty years every thousand years.
During these thirty years, you will have an opportunity to try to climb the immortal steps every year.
Only those who can step on the tenth step can continue to stay in the inner sect!
In other words, all disciples of the inner sect of the Heavenly God Sect have the hope of becoming immortals.
"
Han Yuan was full of surprise. The so-called inner sect threshold was so high, and those steps were called immortal steps.
He could see that these people's faces were very solemn, and Yan Guilai was shocked, as if he knew nothing about the inner sect.
At this time, Yu Muqiu transmitted the voice:"The immortal steps are the immortal tools that the great powers of our Eight Heavenly Gods family have dropped from the immortal world. The allocation of resources after our ascension depends on the highest step record before ascension. It can not only be used to test the potential for becoming immortals, but also has a reward mechanism. Every time you step on a new step, you can get a reward! You can find an opportunity to try it later!"
""Okay." Han Yuan responded, and in his heart he became interested in the three treasures of Tianshen Mountain mentioned by the old man. If the long steps to immortality are really immortal artifacts, what are the other two treasures that can be ranked alongside it?
Chang Ye then transmitted his voice,"Let me remind you that the news that we are reincarnated immortals is kept secret from the combined elders. Your public identity is that you are a special genius secretly cultivated by the sect, and you have many privileges! For example, you don't need to take the 10th-level threshold test, you can directly move into Tianshen Mountain."
"Many ordinary cultivators will always feel dissatisfied with our privileges and will challenge us. Once their challenge succeeds, the sect will be able to deprive us of our privileges. You must be careful not to fall into the trap!"
""Let's go, there's nothing to see, let's register our identities first and get the token!" Yu Muchu said.
The three of them walked past the crowd and headed towards the building complex on the mountain.
The team of a hundred people kept looking sideways, guessing the identities of the three.
Han Yuan came to the mountain and looked at some buildings up close. Some of the buildings were covered and closed, and it was hard to tell what was real or fake.
But some buildings were open, and you could see some monks on the balcony breathing in the breath emanating from the underground of Tianshen Mountain, while some people were standing on the windowsill, waving at the three people who were walking.
Yu Muchu introduced:"The people in these buildings are all inner sect disciples who have passed the test. Among them are also reincarnated immortals. You will know them later. You can choose an ownerless house to live in later. Those houses with tokens inserted at the door are ownerless! After you break through the fusion, you can move to the stone house halfway up the mountain to live."
Hearing this, Han Yuan looked above the halfway point of the mountain and observed carefully. Indeed, he saw some stone houses on the left and right sides of the steps. They looked very inconspicuous. He did not expect that they were places where only the combined cultivators could live.
He could not help but become more interested in the long steps to immortality.
He said,"I want to ask, if I go to climb the steps, how many levels will be qualified?"
Yu Muchu and Chang Ye looked at each other implicitly.
Then Yu Muchu said calmly:"30 levels are qualified, 50 levels are excellent, and 100 levels are zero!"
Han Yuan nodded thoughtfully.
They gradually approached the halfway point of the mountain.
Under the leadership of Yu Muchu, they entered a hall.
A golden light directly enveloped Han Yuan's incarnation, as if detecting something.
Then a voice came:"Welcome, the newcomer of the Jianmu family, you have obtained the privilege token of the inner sect of the Tianshen Sect. I wish you to be ranked among the Golden Immortals as soon as possible and enjoy the immortal blessings forever!"
A golden token appeared in front of Han Yuan.
