Chapter 1828 Competition
"Boom!"
The bluestone steps were full of violent intent.
As soon as Ye Chunyang took the first step, a statue with a majestic face and a giant sword on its back in front of the Earth Spirit Ancient Cave immediately glowed with dazzling brilliance, and a terrible will of fusion came like a storm.
"Buzz!" "Buzz!"
In Ye Chunyang's body, eighty-one life sword essences were trembling, as if sensing some kind of resonance, and the sword energy fluctuated violently.
He looked up and looked forward. The sculpture was full of sword intent, and there was an invisible fierce breath that wanted to strangle him.
Under this will, his Nascent Soul was also faintly suppressed.
Ye Chunyang's heart trembled, and he urged his magic power to protect his Nascent Soul and resist this storm of sword intent at the same time.
But then he found that this will was so strong that even if he used all his magic power, he still couldn't stop its suppression, and almost shook him off the steps.
"What a strong will!"
Ye Chunyang was secretly shocked.
It was indeed the spiritual will left by a great master in the fusion stage. With his magic power in the spirit transformation stage, he could not resist it at all.
However, this was only the first step. If he retreated, he would be abandoned by this will and would never be able to set foot in this ancient cave, let alone reach the third level.
Moreover, Ye Chunyang was not a person who would retreat when faced with pressure, otherwise, he would have endless demons in his heart and it would be difficult for him to make any progress in his cultivation.
He looked at the majestic sculpture with a long sword on its back, and then sensed the eighty-one flying swords in his body, and then looked at the people who walked up the steps one by one.
Through the aura of the flying sword, he could feel that in addition to him, there were several other sword cultivators present, who were also affected by the will of this sword immortal sculpture.
He suddenly understood.
These eighteen sculptures launched attacks against various attribute wills. He specialized in flying swords, so he naturally attracted the sword immortal sculpture.
Of course, in addition to this, the will launched in the sculpture seemed to be related to the spiritual root.
Under the same spiritual root attribute, the will of the sculpture would be aroused.
"No matter what, I must reach the third level!"
Determination flashed in Ye Chunyang's eyes.
He shouted in his heart, and his soul and magic power were activated at the same time, and the eighty-one flying swords in his body rang!
"Bang!"
A low tremor sounded under his feet, and Ye Chunyang's footsteps landed steadily.
Looking at the sword immortal sculpture that released a blazing pressure on him, Ye Chunyang was determined, and then he took the second step again!
The terrifying storm of will came again, like a wind blade to tear him apart.
This time, the will was even stronger!
Ye Chunyang did not waver at all, and his footsteps did not retreat, still landing steadily.
On the other side, Hua Fei'er also landed on the bluestone steps, her face slightly pale.
The one who released the combined will to her was a sculpture holding a moon-white lotus, a female cultivator, but her will was no weaker than the sword immortal who released pressure on Ye Chunyang.
But Hua Fei'er did not retreat either. After taking the first step, she landed on the second step at the same time as Ye Chunyang.
Then the third step, the fourth step, and the fifth step!
Even more terrifying will pressure descended, and Ye Chunyang's footsteps did not stop, his body was as steady as a rock, and he could not be shaken.
He did not look sideways, his spirit was introverted, and there was no one in his consciousness, only the infinite sword will.
Every step he took, the flying sword in his body trembled a little, as if it was about to be crushed under this combined will.
However, Ye Chunyang's flying sword was not an ordinary thing, it was made of natural thunder wood and was indestructible. Although this sword will was extremely terrifying, in his world, there was still only him and his sword!
The monks on the steps were also moving forward step by step, and the combined will became more and more solemn. People with outstanding talents like Yan Hao have already walked out of a distance of more than ten steps, while some people could not support it, and were crushed by the combined will and flew out of the steps.
And the old Taoist Gu Mu and the old ancestor Gui Ling, who were strong men in the Return to Void period, had already left everyone far behind and reached the twentieth step.
Ye Chunyang raised his head slightly and accidentally saw the young master of Xuanji Palace. She was walking very fast. The will placed on her seemed to have no effect. In a blink of an eye, she was on par with Gu Mu and Yuan Xianyi, two mid-stage Return to Void strongmen.
Hua Ling, who stepped into the steps with her, was still on the fifteenth step.
Ye Chunyang was slightly surprised. This woman was clearly only in the late stage of Thunder Tribulation, equivalent to the late stage of Transformation, but she was able to leave everyone behind.
Is her talent really so terrible?
"As expected of the only genius who could reach the twenty-ninth step three hundred years ago, this young master of Xuanji Palace is indeed extraordinary."
"This time, will she create a miracle unprecedented in history like she did back then?"
Others looked at the back of the woman in palace dress with envy and spoke.
That was an extremely dazzling existence, a legend in front of the Earth Spirit Ancient Cave, and no one could surpass it.
"How can the young master's talent be compared with you people." Hua Ling's eyes were extremely fanatical.
That woman was incomparable in his mind, as dazzling as a fairy from the sky. No one present could compare with her.
"Humph! You are too happy too early!"
A voice full of arrogance sounded beside Hua Ling, accompanied by a loud "bang", and the steps shook wildly, as if hit by a mountain.
A rough figure stepped on the nineteenth step, only one step away from the girl in palace dress!
Yan Hao!
A genius of the Tianshi clan, known as the strongest of the young generation of the Tianshi clan, the most qualified to advance to the Return to Void stage within a hundred years!
He is not inferior to the girl in palace dress!
Hua Ling's expression froze.
This Yan Hao is far superior to him in both talent and cultivation. No matter how arrogant he is, how dare he contradict him?
The palace-dressed girl in front heard the voice and looked back slightly. Her beautiful eyes between reality and illusion were slightly different.
But then she showed a mocking expression and continued to fall forward with light steps.
The 21st step!
At this time, she was already ahead of several returning to the void cultivators.
Yuan Xianyi saw this and smiled with relief. With the woman's excellence, everyone would only be her foil, and this ancient cave of the earth spirit would be a test to verify her supreme talent.
"I haven't seen this little girl before. If I'm not mistaken, she used some secret method to stay in the earth abyss three hundred years ago, right?" The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and looked at Yuan Xianyi.
"Hehe, how can others guess the magical power of my Xuanji Palace?" Yuan Xianyi responded disdainfully.
The old Taoist snorted coldly, his face a little ugly.
The three early stage Return to Void warriors, Ghost Spirit Ancestor, Ao Xie Taoist, and Mo Man, looked at the two with obscure eyes, and no one knew what they were thinking.
"Huh?"
"Who is this person? He has reached the fifteenth step so quickly?"
At this moment, there was a commotion in the crowd.
Everyone looked back and saw a man in a black cloak walking steadily and landing on the fifteenth step.
His figure appeared very abruptly, and no one felt his presence in advance, but his aura was extremely firm and steady.
Hua Ling, who was landing on the sixteenth step, looked back and showed a bit of surprise in his eyes.
Because of the combined will, Ye Chunyang's cultivation aura was also revealed. Seeing that the other party was in the middle stage of the Spiritualization like him, but could catch up with his pace so quickly, Hua Ling secretly felt a little jealous.
Being surpassed by a genius like Yan Hao, he had nothing to say. This man looked inconspicuous, but he could stand shoulder to shoulder with him, which made him intolerable.
On the other side, Hua Yanxi, who had reached the fourteenth step, was even more surprised.
At the fourteenth step, Hua Yanxi was already having trouble holding on.
You know, the combined will of this Earth Spirit Ancient Cave tests not only one's cultivation, but also one's talent and perseverance.
There were many mid-stage cultivators behind, but few could reach this step, and some were even crushed by the combined will and retreated from the steps.
Hua Yanxi's ability to reach the fourteenth step was enough to prove her talent.
However, this mysterious man easily surpassed her!
Hua Yanxi knew what this meant.
And she vaguely felt that this mysterious man and the girl next to her seemed familiar?
Hua Yanxi's beautiful eyes flashed with a strange light, and she couldn't help but pay more attention to the two of them.
"Boom!"
Hua Ling stepped on the sixteenth step.
The cultivators of the same level had been far surpassed by him, and he would not allow anyone to compare with him.
Ye Chunyang did not look at him, nor did he pay attention to Hua Yanxi. At this time, he only had eyes for the eighteen sculptures.
Since the tenth step, the pressure on the steps has been ten times greater than before. The heavy will is like a raging sea, as if it can swallow people.
But as he walked forward, Ye Chunyang found that his magic power became more condensed under the constant impact, and his true essence became more stable.
"It turns out that these combined wills not only test the cultivator's talent and perseverance, but also have a cleansing effect on the true essence. Before I broke through the middle stage of the spirit transformation, my realm was still a little frivolous, but now these wills are of great help to me."
Ye Chunyang had an epiphany in his heart.
This is a great place to temper magic power.
With this understanding, Ye Chunyang's goal in his heart became clearer.
Now that he has gained such benefits only at the fifteenth step, what will happen to the next step?
He took another step.
The sixteenth step!
The strong will swept over again, and Ye Chunyang's body trembled slightly, and there was a roar from all parts of his body, but he soon stabilized.
Hua Fei'er followed closely behind him.
Her steps seemed a little difficult, but after a slight shake, she stood steadily with Ye Chunyang.
At this time, on the sixteenth step, Hua Ling, Ye Chunyang, and Hua Feier stood side by side!
In front of them were several Return to Void strongmen and the two peerless geniuses.
Hua Ling glanced slightly, his eyes revealed a coldness, and then he continued to move forward without saying a word.
On the seventeenth step, the will of the combined body rushed like a tide, his body shook violently, his face was slightly pale, but he still did not stop.
However, just as Hua Ling took this step with a happy look on his face, his expression suddenly condensed.
Two figures behind him came quickly.
What shocked Hua Ling was that the man in black and black clothes, after taking the seventeenth step, did not stop at all, but took continuous steps and passed him directly.
He took two steps and landed on the eighteenth step!
He was only three steps away from the several Return to Void strongmen, and only one step away from the genius Yan Hao!
