Bang bang bang!

Ten people were thrown off the bridge.

Lu Changsheng used extraordinary phenomena to save these people.

"How so?"

Why can't we get over this?

"Young people aren't doing it either, so where exactly is the problem?"

This left all the cultivators puzzled.

It was at this moment that...

Lu Changsheng's voice rang out.

"Gentlemen, I think it must be related to the pace."

Lu Changsheng spoke, instantly arousing everyone's curiosity.

"Does it have anything to do with walking?"

Is it because of my posture?

"Does that mean we all have to walk the same way?"

"Does Senior Brother Lu mean that..."

Everyone was extremely curious.

"Step on both feet."

Lu Changsheng spoke.

He realized what the problem was.

In fact, he had been observing all the details and later discovered that the pace of everyone walking was completely different every time the bridge swayed.

This is a very simple test, but it requires extremely careful observation; otherwise, it will be very difficult to pass.

"Left and right feet side by side?"

The cultivators were stunned.

That's it?

Are you all still thinking about this?

"Try it!"

"Let's give it a try."

"Another team is coming. With Senior Brother Lu here, don't be afraid."

Lu Changsheng's words still carried weight, and no one doubted him. Soon, another group of cultivators set off.

This time, everyone walked side by side, and although they walked very slowly, the whole group quickly reached the bridgehead.

"Hiss! It really is?"

"Just as I expected."

"So you really are walking with your left and right feet side by side?"

"Senior Brother Changsheng is really too smart."

"No wonder Senior Brother Changsheng is so handsome, now I know why."

"I would like to regard Senior Brother Changsheng as the most intelligent person in the world."

They passed the test, and everyone was extremely happy.

Although I always felt that the bridge crossing setup was a bit silly, at least I got through the level anyway.

In an instant, the cultivators moved their left and right feet side by side, and soon the large group of people crossed the Rocking Bridge.

However, after the cultivators crossed the Rocking Bridge, a new group of cultivators appeared after an incense stick had burned for a while.

However, these cultivators were not human cultivators, but Demon Race and demonic cultivators.

Purple Yao Qi permeated the air, while black demonic energy swirled around. It was a rare alliance between the Demon Race and the demonic sect. They weren't late; they deliberately waited until this moment to enter, hoping that those ahead would clear the way.

"It's all your Demon Race's fault for dragging your feet. You've caused the Soaring Immortal Pool to run out of spiritual liquid. It's all been drunk up by these human cultivators."

The leader of the demonic sect, dressed in a black cloak, spoke with extreme anger.

"You guys didn't get any? We didn't get any either. The Celestial Origin Holy Ground is of utmost importance. We can't gather all the experts in a short time, so we can only make do and let them take the lead. What's so great about the mere Soaring Immortal Pool? Maybe there are even more treasures later!"

The powerful Demon Race said in an annoyed tone.

"Alright, alright, now that we've joined forces, let's stop arguing. We just received a message from our clan's hidden human cultivators that this Rocking Bridge requires both feet to be parallel to each other to cross. Everyone must be careful, or you'll fall into an abyss and die without even knowing how."

After the sound rang out, the cultivators from both races fell silent.

Meanwhile.

Lu Changsheng and the others had already crossed the Rocking Bridge.

The group gathered together.

For some reason, the further we went into the sacred territory, the stranger it felt.

Keep moving forward.

Soon, the Third Trial appeared before everyone.

Ten caves.

The scene inside the cave was not clearly visible.

Wang Xuanji's eyes shone brightly, transforming into divine eyes—his talent. However, he quickly frowned, withdrew his gaze, and said, "I can't see clearly what's inside the cave. It's very strange."

"There might be danger inside."

"Even my brother's Primordial Divine Eye cannot see clearly inside the cave. It seems there's something fishy about this cave."

"After all, this is the Celestial Origin Holy Ground, the place where immortals were made back then. It's normal that we can't see it clearly."

"Hey, there are words here."

The crowd discussed it, but soon someone noticed writing on the side of the cave.

In an instant, everyone turned their attention to that direction.

Wang Fugui also looked over.

"Nine shallow holes and one deep hole?"

Wang Fugui said softly.

Lu Changsheng: ""

Nine ghosts!

Is it a matter of surviving a near-death experience?

Although Lu Changsheng didn't know many characters, he could still recognize some simple characters with a lot of strokes.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes, the Nine Deaths One Life Cave is mainly due to a problem with the strokes. I didn't expect even immortals to be illiterate."

Wang Fugui muttered to himself.

The cultivators:

You clearly misread it, but you insist on explaining that the immortal is illiterate. You're such a clever little devil.

There are more words below.

Someone shouted.

Soon the sound rang out.

"This cave holds a hidden secret and can truly lead to a fairyland. However, among the ten caves, only one leads to a fairyland; the rest are places of certain death."

Someone read out these small print.

In an instant, everyone fell silent.

A near-death experience.

Isn't this a bit too exciting?

There is only a one in ten chance of survival.

"What do we do now?"

"Should we let someone go in and try?"

"It's not impossible, but who should we call?"

"Zhao Chen, have you all forgotten about him?"

"Right, right, where's that guy who only takes one sip from Three Thousand Weak Waters? Come on, we'll let you in first this time."

Everyone immediately thought of Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen, who had been beaten black and blue, was lying on the ground pretending to be dead.

"Damn it, are you pretending to be dead now?"

"Didn't you say you only want one sip from Three Thousand Weak Waters?"

"Go get it quickly."

The group said this with some annoyance.

"I've finished retrieving from the Soaring Immortal Pool. Fellow Daoists, I can't go any further, so I won't go in."

Zhao Chen lay on the ground pretending to be dead.

He absolutely refused to go in.

After a moment of silence from the cultivators...

Demon Race and cultivators from the Demonic Sect also slowly appeared.

"I knew it! You Demon Race and the demonic sects hadn't shown yourselves all this time; you'd been hiding behind us all along!"

As the Demon Race and the demonic sect cultivators appeared, a human powerhouse immediately spoke up, not with mockery, but with a cold laugh.

"The Celestial Origin Holy Ground is not a human territory, so naturally we have to come. However, since our Immortal Fate has not yet manifested, let's deal with the immediate problem first."

The powerful figures from the Demonic Sect also spoke up, but without using any fighting spirit or shouting for battle.

Everyone here is a person of importance. Although good and evil have been irreconcilable since ancient times, the Demon Race and the demonic sect have become much more docile in the last few thousand years, so there is no phenomenon of fighting and killing each other when they meet.

Of course, they are right.

The current problem is not between good and evil, but rather the struggle for Immortal Fate.

Wouldn't it be better to wait until the Immortal Fate arises before making a move?

Why waste your energy here?

"Since you're here, please come in first."

One of the cultivators spoke up, saying this.

"No, no, no, you are all from reputable sects, so naturally you should have priority."

"Yes, don't you guys fight over everything? We won't take it, you go first."

The Demon Race and the demonic cultivators were also cunning; they knew there was something strange about this cave, so they didn't fight or rob it.

And in an instant.

Everyone fell silent.

Nine parts deep, one part shallow.

Oh, no, it's the Nine Deaths One Life Cave.

This is indeed a bit tricky.

"Senior Brother Changsheng, what do you think?"

Someone spoke up, asking Lu Changsheng.

Everyone looked at Lu Changsheng, hoping he might have a good solution.

Lu Changsheng was taken aback.

How can I see it myself?

Stare wide-eyed?

Look closely?

He didn't say anything.

He simply stared quietly at the cave, pondering how to solve the problem.

I'm going out for a bit! The third update will probably be late!

Thank you everyone for your support!
