Caretakers of the Four Great Holy Lands

The stone stele of the Shadowless Steps stood a hundred meters tall, divided into nine smaller patterns like a nine-square grid.

The first pattern contained only one footprint, the second had three, and the third had ten.

By the final one, it was densely packed with footprints layered atop footprints. Some had even been covered over, leaving only a tiny edge visible.

Trying to figure out the sequence of these footprints was incredibly difficult.

There was not a single person before the Shadowless Steps stele, which proved just how difficult it was.

Everyone had limited time. Learning the Swift Wind Steps already took a long time, and too many people simply had no time to study the Shadowless Steps.

Even with Lin Zhen's comprehension, learning the Shadowless Steps was difficult. The first small pattern alone was an important hurdle.

The first step was merely a simple left footprint, but was this step forward or backward? If forward, how far forward? If backward, by what magnitude? Finding that mysterious sensation was extraordinarily difficult.

As he comprehended it here, Lin Zhen also continuously simulated and practiced in the Dimensional Arena.

"This footwork is so difficult. It looks simple, but it is actually incredibly hard. Being off by even the slightest bit with this step won't work. One of the three footprints in the second pattern is identical to this one. If I am even slightly off, I won't be able to execute the second pattern at all."

"Moreover, it contains three powers: space, time, and Wind Element. While taking the step, I have to pay attention to combining all three. The flow of time must definitely differ from its normal rate, and I also have to add the power of the Wind Element. How much to add is another problem. This is
