Black Stone Trial
Reincarnator are synonymous with mystery and power within the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
A person is born with a wealth of martial arts experience and an understanding of the laws; all that remains is to break through to a higher realm.
Breaking through to a higher level becomes a natural process once a solid foundation is laid.
Therefore, Reincarnator cultivate at an extremely fast pace.
Some of the Reincarnator of the Heavenly Dao Alliance have reincarnated more than once; they have reincarnated three, four, or even five times!
The accumulation of many reincarnations, some even from tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years ago, has all erupted in this life!
Their understanding of laws and the Way of Heaven continuously accumulates and strengthens.
The laws comprehended by a martial artist in the early stage of the Dao Seed Realm have reached the peak level of the Kaiyuan Realm, and even approach the level of Emperor!
Among martial artists of the same level, they are practically invincible.
Unrivaled in their realm, only they deserve such a title!
The Martial Arts Alliance does not hide the existence of Reincarnator. Before this, the old members of the Martial Arts Alliance had witnessed the Reincarnator take action, and the terrifying scene was still fresh in their minds.
That move also caused many veteran members of the Martial Arts Alliance to abandon their last stand and choose to sign Soul Contract to join the Heavenly Blood Alliance.
In just one instance, the Heavenly Blood Alliance gained dozens of members!
Gongsun Hong also joined the Heavenly Blood Alliance at that time.
Having witnessed the Reincarnator's Reincarnator power, Gongsun Hong was filled with awe and admiration for it; it was truly awe-inspiring!
Therefore, when Gongsun Hong lost to Yi Yun, he brought up the Reincarnator, not only to save face, but also because Gongsun Hong admired Reincarnator too much.
He listed the many Reincarnator of the Martial Arts Alliance as his goals. He dreamed of making meritorious contributions in the Martial Arts Alliance and getting the opportunity to cultivate the Great Dao Samsara Technique. As long as he mastered this supreme technique, he could at least be named Emperor, or become an Ancestor, or even... surpass that realm!
In the past Tianyuan Realm, reaching the pinnacle of a sect's ancestor's achievements was almost the ultimate goal.
As for surpassing the patriarch of a sect, that seems like a pipe dream. However, many geniuses today possess different skills and Ancient Inheritance, so it's not impossible!
The prodigies who join the Martial Arts Alliance all have their own ambitions. With such an opportunity presented to them and having witnessed many miracles, they are easily swayed by their original convictions.
Humans are creatures easily influenced by their environment. Once influenced by the choices of those around them, it becomes natural for them to choose to join the Heavenly Blood Alliance.
Sacrificing freedom in exchange for great power is not an unacceptable thing.
Therefore, within a month of Yi Yun joining the Martial Arts Alliance, ten geniuses who had entered the Martial Arts Alliance with Yi Yun had chosen to join the Heavenly Blood Alliance.
More and more people are joining the Heavenly Blood Alliance. Although Yi Yun defeated Gongsun Hong, an old member of the Heavenly Blood Alliance, as soon as he joined the Martial Arts Alliance, he was humiliated on the spot.
However, he only slightly slowed down the speed at which the prodigies made their decisions, but he did not have any fundamental impact.
Yi Yun saw so many people joining the Heavenly Blood Alliance but didn't feel much. In the face of a world calamity, the life and death of a group of geniuses seemed insignificant.
Everyone has to pay the price for their choices.
In early winter, a snowfall had just occurred on Absolute Sword Mountain, and the mountain was bitterly cold, with the north wind blowing like knives and swords.
"Bang--Bang--Bang--"
On Absolute Sword Mountain, a bell suddenly rang out, its long, drawn-out sound piercing the cold wind and storm, reaching the ears of every member of the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
"Jiang Yi Dao, the Black Stone Trial has begun!"
While Yi Yun was meditating in his room, he suddenly heard shouts coming from outside.
A boy living next door to Yi Yun is called Yi Yun.
This young man, named Yu Chi Wei, was younger than Yi Yun. His background was not particularly distinguished; he came from a second-rate power in the Tianyuan Realm. It was quite remarkable that he could rise from a second-rate power and join the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
Like Yi Yun, Yu Chi Wei was also unwilling to join the Heavenly Blood Alliance, but Yi Yun didn't know how long the other party could hold out.
Yi Yun stepped out of his stone house.
Within the Heavenly Dao Alliance, only members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance are entitled to have a stone tower all to themselves. The stone tower is equipped with a grand formation, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is rich and pure, making it an excellent environment for cultivation.
Ordinary members who do not join the Heavenly Blood Alliance can only live in these stone houses, which have simple interior facilities and generally low concentrations of vital energy.
Although Yi Yun was renowned within the Heavenly Dao Alliance, he could only afford to live in such a simple stone house. In fact, his residence was considered to be in a rather poor location compared to other ordinary members of the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
In addition, ordinary members are restricted in various cultivation resources and trial arrangements, Yi Yun, as someone who can be vaguely called a leader among the ordinary members, receives special "attention".
Yi Yun has experienced various forms of unfair treatment.
This was purely a deliberate act by a veteran member of the Heavenly Blood Alliance.
Many of the trial arrangements were controlled by the old members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance, and these people naturally disliked Yi Yun.
In fact, four months ago, when Yi Yun first joined the Heavenly Dao Alliance and defeated Gongsun Hong with a single strike, the old members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance were all hostile towards Yi Yun.
This barbarian brat slapped the face of a veteran member of the Heavenly Blood Alliance as soon as he arrived at Absolute Sword Mountain, which involves a matter of face.
How shameful it is when older members are inferior to newer members!
The veteran members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance were eager to "teach" this arrogant newcomer a lesson, to show him that there are always people more capable than you.
But... Yi Yun is too strong.
Everyone knows Gongsun Hong's strength, but Yi Yun is the one who can defeat Gongsun Hong with a single strike.
Even if Gongsun Hong asserted that he only lost to Yi Yun due to momentary carelessness and a desire to show off his skills, and that if he were to use his true strength, the outcome of his battle with Yi Yun would at most be 40/60.
However... not many people believed Gongsun Hong's words, and Gongsun Hong didn't even explain the so-called "40/60 split"—whether he was the "60%" or Yi Yun was the "60%".
Gongsun Hong spoke loudly, but he didn't challenge Yi Yun again, so the truth of the matter is already quite obvious.
Yi Yun is incredibly strong, and he's a newcomer. These Heavenly Blood Alliance have been eager to teach Yi Yun a lesson, but fighting Yi Yun would bring them no benefit whatsoever.
If it were simply a matter of easily beating up Yi Yun, that would be one thing, but instead, he consistently loses more battles than he wins against Yi Yun. And when he does lose, he loses a large portion of his salary and suffers humiliation. Who would do something like that?
Yi Yun's trickery of Gongsun Hong is well-known in the Martial Arts Alliance. He pretended to be weak but actually outsmarted Gongsun Hong, making him completely outmaneuvered. It's best to avoid messing with someone as cunning as him, otherwise you might end up losing to him and being ruined!
For the past few months, Yi Yun has been cultivating peacefully without anyone bothering him. On the contrary, the other members who joined the Heavenly Dao Alliance with Yi Yun are bullied by the older members at every turn.
Many battles involve rewards and punishments from the Blood Jade, and these newcomers, especially those who insist on not signing Soul Contract, are bullied terribly.
That's human nature. The old members of the Heavenly Blood Alliance chose to sign Soul Contract, so they had this mentality: they wanted everyone to do the same and sign Soul Contract.
That way, they will feel psychologically balanced.
Normally, they don't target newcomers who join the Heavenly Blood Alliance; it's only those newcomers who are slow to join who have a hard time.
In recent days, Yi Yun has become much more restrained, refraining from making high-profile bluffs and challenges. Unsure of the Martial Arts Alliance's next move, he has chosen to bide his time.
His strength is constantly increasing, and his cultivation is beginning to approach the peak of the Dao Seed Realm.
Having cultivated to this level, Yi Yun himself didn't even know how much strength he was hiding. Since the Empress Secret Realm ended, he had only gone all out when sparring with Lin Xin Tong. And Lin Xin Tong was someone who couldn't be judged by ordinary standards. He didn't know how far Yi Yun could fight against the Tianyuan Realm.
"I'm coming right now."
Yi Yun, who was meditating, took a deep breath and picked up the knife beside him.
This sword is five feet long; it is a Tang Saber with a long, narrow blade and unparalleled sharpness.
The sword is named Gu Chen, which Yi Yun obtained by exchanging Blood Jade from the Martial Arts Alliance Armory.
A knife worth 1,500 Blood Jade.
For the Tianyuan Realm, this sword is considered top-tier.
So far, Yi Yun possesses the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow and the Mysterious Broken Sword, but in terms of blades, Yi Yun doesn't have a particularly good one.
Previously, Yi Yun had been using the Crimson Blood Red Lotus Saber, which he had scavenged from Granny Thousand Hands, and it was already considered quite good. However, after changing his identity, he could no longer use the Crimson Blood Red Lotus Saber.
Now, the Ancient Dust Saber in Yi Yun's hand is of a much higher quality than the Crimson Blood Red Lotus.
In four months, Yi Yun had become quite adept at wielding the Ancient Dust Saber.
With the Ancient Dust Saber in hand, Yi Yun strode out of the stone house.
After leaving the stone house, Yi Yun saw Yu Chi Wei and frowned.
Yu Chi Wei was originally a boy with delicate skin, but now, there is a grotesque, diagonal wound on Yu Chi Wei neck that extends down and disappears into his collar.
Yu Chi Wei's face was covered in bruises, clearly indicating that he had been beaten not long ago.
