Chapter 185 Soul Tempering Heavenly Pond

In the secret realm, a golden sun hangs high!

And at the top of the giant peak surrounded by clouds and mist, a white jade staircase rises straight up!

The so-called "Ladder to Heaven" was specially built by the Jinxuan Sect, which was at its peak, to select disciples.

Almost every step on it has a hidden secret.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an illusion with every step!

However, when the Jinxuan Secret Realm was opened, elite monks from various forces flocked to it. Anyone who could survive to the central secret realm was planning to enter the "Quenching Soul Pool".

After all, if one can reach the rumored state of perfect Qi Refining, not to mention that the road will be smooth in the future, even when breaking through the foundation-building period, it can increase the probability of breaking through the realm!

In this way, even if there are many illusions on the "Ladder to Heaven", and there are very few people who can successfully reach the top in the end, not to mention those who can successfully break through the perfect state, it is also rare!

Even some weak-minded people lost themselves in the illusion and could not extricate themselves, leading to the invasion of inner demons and the obsession of the devil. There were countless people!

But even so, there were still many Qi-refining cultivators who went forward one after another, trying their best to climb to the top of the giant peak!

At this moment, Qin Tian, ​​who was in the middle of the "ladder to the stage", had no expression of sadness or joy, his eyes were full of determination, and he always climbed up the stairs calmly and calmly!

Along the way, Qin Tian had experienced many realistic illusions that touched the weaknesses of human nature and the seven emotions and six desires.

And the length of time he was trapped in it each time was different.

But under the influence of his "enlightened heart of Taoism", many illusions were nowhere to be hidden.

In this way, Qin Tian's climbing speed was naturally much faster than that of ordinary cultivators.

At least on this road, many cultivators were overtaken by him and then left far behind.

Soon, as time passed slowly, Qin Tian had reached two-thirds of the "ladder to the sky".

But when he arrived here, the illusions that appeared each time suddenly became stronger, and even some of them were so realistic that even Qin Tian, ​​who had a "clear mind", could not easily distinguish the true from the false.

As a result, the speed of his ascent to the top naturally began to slow down.

Even the leaders of the major forces who had already set out began to show up!

And there were many "old acquaintances" of Qin Tian among them!

For example, not far in front of him at this moment, Yan Ying of the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, who was wearing a fluttering red skirt and exuding a sense of charm, was flushed with a pair of red lips slightly open.

Obviously, she had fallen into some kind of illusion and knew nothing about the outside world!

Seeing this scene, Qin Tian's eyes suddenly flashed a sharp murderous intent, but it was quickly suppressed.

The reason for this is that on this cloud ladder, the whole body is covered by the formation prohibition, and no one is allowed to attack.

Otherwise, if the spiritual power fluctuations are detected by the secret formation, they will be instantly wiped out by the powerful formation attack!

In this way, it can avoid the situation where the cultivators fall into illusions and are attacked by others and die!

It is precisely because of this that Qin Tian just suppressed his killing intent, and then he did not stop, directly passed Yanying, and continued to climb upwards.

Soon another hour passed, and at this moment, Qin Tian was not far from the top of the mountain, and there was no cultivator in front of him.

And behind him, people such as Blood Shark Young Master, Min Kun, Mo Ziyu, Ning Zhe, Wu Xun, etc. had already been left far behind.

Finally, under the morning light of the rising sun, Qin Tian slowly took the last step and successfully stepped onto the top of the mountain.

At this moment, the long stairs behind him disappeared, replaced by endless, rolling white clouds.

At the same time, Qin Tian only felt a strong and almost mist-like spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which rushed straight to his face.

Even just a light breath can make people feel comfortable all over!

Feeling this situation, Qin Tian couldn't help but raise his head curiously and looked towards the top of the mountain.

On the top of the mountain, there was a huge fog pool with a radius of hundreds of feet. It was filled with extremely dense fog-like spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Even when the fog was rolling, there was a faint sound of water flow!

Obviously, this is the rumored "Quenching Soul Pool"!

In the outer area of ​​the mountain top, there is a circle of array light curtains flashing with white light, which is constantly gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around and sealing it all in the "Quenching Soul Pool".

Seeing this scene, Qin Tian couldn't help but reveal a touch of shock and emotion in his eyes.

After all, such a huge ancient spirit gathering array, when it was built, it is conceivable that a lot of resources were consumed. Only the "Jinxuan Sect" that almost unified the endless sea of ​​monsters at the beginning had such a big hand!

After a moment, Qin Tian quickly gathered his mind and began to rush towards the center of the "Spirit Quenching Pool".

According to the records of the sect, in this "Spirit Quenching Pool", the closer to the center, the higher the purity of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the corresponding "Spirit Quenching" speed will naturally be faster.

And the probability of breaking through to the perfection of Qi Refining will also be greatly increased!

This is why every time the "Sky Ladder" is opened, many cultivators are all striving to climb, fearing that they will fall behind.

After all, stepping into the "Spirit Quenching Pool" one step ahead means one more chance to break through to the perfection of Qi Refining!

Thinking of this, Qin Tian couldn't help but secretly feel fortunate in his heart while rushing towards the center of the "Spirit Quenching Pool".

Indeed, if it were not for the powerful help of "Tongming Daoxin", he would be just like all living beings, still struggling on the "ladder to the sky"!

After a moment, Qin Tian, ​​who was originally running fast, suddenly paused, and then his speed began to slow down greatly!

The reason for this is that in the "Quenching Soul Pool" at this moment, due to the excessive concentration of the mist-like spiritual energy of heaven and earth, coupled with the strange effect of the ancient spirit gathering array, a strong spiritual pressure has been formed.

In this way, the cultivators in it will be constantly under the powerful spiritual pressure around them while tempering their spiritual power!

And Qin Tian also found that the closer he was to the center of the "Quenching Soul Pool", the stronger the spiritual pressure he endured!

But even though the pressure around him was so strong that Qin Tian felt a faint pain in his body, he still mobilized the five elements of spiritual power, gritted his teeth and resisted, insisting on moving forward towards the center!

However, Qin Tian didn't know that just as he approached the center of the "Spirit Tempering Pool", another young monk slowly walked out from the end of the "Sky Ladder".

Upon closer inspection, this person turned out to be the disciple of the head of the Qianyuan Sect, Wu Xun!

But for some reason, at this moment, Wu Xun's eyes were filled with a strange green color...
