Sensing the changes around him, Ye Lin's lips curled into a smile.
As he surveyed the surroundings with Sword Intent, the so-called pressure vanished completely.
Then, Ye Lin, looking relaxed and content, lifted his foot and walked upwards.
"He... wasn't he just looking so stressed? Now he seems like a completely different person?"
Behind Ye Lin, the disciples who were struggling to climb looked completely bewildered.
Just a moment ago Ye Lin seemed just like them, but now, he seems like a completely different person.
"He comprehended the Sword Intent, and his body was surrounded by an aura of intent. He used this aura to manipulate the unique power of heaven and earth to resist the pressure caused by the Heavenly Path."
"A brilliant plan, but unfortunately, understanding its essence is incredibly difficult. It seems this Heavenly Path is not for me."
In the distance, a disciple holding a feather fan watched Ye Lin's retreating figure, lost in thought.
"It was really easy."
Despite being blocked by Sword Intent, Ye Lin remained relaxed and at ease, as if he were simply walking normally.
Looking up, there were only five figures, and with himself, there were only six figures in total.
Looking back, a large group of the Outer Sect disciples were struggling to move, each step incredibly difficult.
Ultimately, only a minority can truly grasp the essence of the text.
Ye Lin had an easy time along the way, but Ye Lin expression changed when he reached the last hundred steps.
Next, the Sword Intent became useless.
This directly affects the soul.
Meanwhile, the five disciples around them all had extremely ugly expressions.
Li Xiaoyao remained where he was, his face extremely grim.
Ninety-nine, ninety-eight, ninety-seven, ninety-six...
With each step he took, Ye Lin silently recited a prayer in his heart.
There's no way around it, it's just too difficult.
This was the result of his Mystic Light Pagoda operating at full speed, trying to reduce the pressure on his soul.
The Phoenix Fire also circulated around the soul.
After the Phoenix Fire advanced to the Earth Grade High Tier, he discovered that the Phoenix Fire could directly affect the soul.
It can protect one's own soul, or it can burn the souls of others.
This surprised and delighted Ye Lin for quite some time.
Nowadays, even Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who accidentally come into contact with the Phoenix Fire will suffer greatly.
The premise is that you stand still.
"There's still half an hour left."
At that moment, a voice came from the top of the Heavenly Path.
Ye Lin looked up and saw only a huge platform, but did not see the owner of the voice.
However, the being capable of creating this Heavenly Path must possess considerable cultivation.
After all, something created by the Nascent Soul Realm stage expert couldn't possibly suppress such a large group of Golden Core stage cultivators to the point of being unable to raise their heads.
"Damn it."
At this moment, a disciple next to Ye Lin's expression changed drastically. He knelt down on the steps and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Your soul is injured, go back."
At the same time, the voice came from the sky again, and the disciple beside him disappeared.
"Ten minutes left."
When the voice came from the sky again, Ye Lin and Li Xiaoyao stood side by side, looking at the ten steps in front of them.
What were originally just ten ordinary steps now seemed to the two of them to be the furthest distance in the world.
"That's not right."
Having reached this point, Ye Lin looked somewhat surprised.
Of the entire Outer Sect, only Li Xiaoyao and I remained until the end. Why does this plot seem so familiar?
Ye Lin then turned his gaze to Li Xiaoyao, and immediately a transparent panel appeared.
Name: Li Xiaoyao
Cultivation level: Early stage of Golden Core
Fate Rank: Yellow
Fate Traits: [ Smiling Tiger ][ Sword Dao Divine ][ Innate Sword Body ][ Transcendental Luck ][ Child of Heaven's Favor ]
Destiny: He stopped at the peak of Mahayana, and eventually went to the Boundless Sea, where he was attacked by three Mahayana- stage sea beasts and perished in the sea.
Recent Opportunity 1: The Outer Sect descends upon the Heavenly Path. You seize the opportunity and, relying on your Innate Sword Body, directly ascend to the top of the Heavenly Path, becoming True Disciple of the Heavenly Path's master, Qingfeng True Person.
Recent Opportunity 2: At the bottom of the fourth jar in the third row of the Scripture Depository, a jade pendant was found. From the jade pendant, Mysterious Grade High Tier Swordsmanship, Azure Tide Sword Wave, was discovered. After practicing it, combat power will greatly increase.
Recent Opportunity 3: He was bestowed with a Earth Grade Low Tier pendant by Qingfeng True Person. The jade pendant contained Qingfeng True Person's full-force attack, which he has kept as his trump card ever since.
[ Smiling Tiger ]: You may appear to be a refined gentleman, but you are actually incredibly dark inside. You prey on those around you, and none of those who become your friends end up well.
[ Sword Dao Divine ]: In the path of swordsmanship, you are undoubtedly the best, unmatched by anyone in the world.
[ Innate Sword Body ]: You possess one of the most powerful physiques from High Antiquity times, an innate affinity with Long Sword. Once awakened, you will be invincible among those of the same level.
[ Transcendental Luck ]: Your luck is terrifyingly good. Even a fall is caused by heavenly materials and earthly treasures under your feet. Under such terrifying Fortune's Favor, everything goes smoothly for you.
[ Child of Heaven's Favor ]: You are favored by Heavenly Dao. Those who want to kill you will ultimately be killed by you. Those who offend you will not die a good death, including their Lineage.
After looking at Li Xiaoyao's stats, Ye Lin suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder this script felt strangely familiar.
" True Person."
Looking at the Qingfeng True Person on the panel, Ye Lin carefully studied it. Only Spirit Transformation stage expert could be called True Person.
Cultivators below the Spirit Transformation stage can be called Great Cultivators, but they must never call themselves True Person.
True Person is someone who has cultivated and attained enlightenment. Only after reaching the Spirit Transformation stage can one be considered to have truly achieved something.
"Senior Brother Ye, I never imagined that it would be just the two of us left. Can we hold on?"
Li Xiaoyao's expression was grim. He looked around and spoke softly to Ye Lin.
"Don't worry, we can hold on."
Ye Lin smiled.
"One minute left."
As Qingfeng True Person spoke his last words, Ye Lin and Li Xiaoyao almost simultaneously gritted their teeth and took three steps to reach the summit together.
The next moment, Ye Lin felt a lightness all over his body, and all the pressure from before dissipated.
And the sweat on his body evaporated instantly.
"You two are quite interesting. Do you know that if I had stopped in time, your souls might have collapsed?"
A voice came from afar.
Ye Lin and Li Xiaoyao looked up at the same time and saw Qingfeng True Person sitting among the clouds, looking mysterious and unpredictable.
In front of them were two prayer cushions.
Ye Lin was puzzled. He had just reached the top and noticed that there was clearly one futon, but now there were suddenly two.
"There are two cushions here, please sit down."
As soon as Qingfeng True Person finished speaking, Ye Lin and Li Xiaoyao stepped forward.
Arriving in front of the prayer mat, the two clasped their hands and bowed to Qingfeng True Person before sitting down on the mat.
"Your ability to reach the summit is a kind of destiny with me. I will preach for three days, and how much you can listen to depends entirely on yourselves."
With a gentle wave of his whisk, Qingfeng True Person caused the Heavenly Path to vanish, and the surrounding area was completely hidden by Cloud.
From the outside, the once enormous platform had vanished into thin air.
Hearing the great master preach was fortuitous opportunity for Ye Lin and Li Xiaoyao. As the saying goes, the Dharma should not be passed on to six ears, nor should it be spread outside.
"Cultivation is like cultivating the mind; it is a struggle against the heavens..."
As Qingfeng True Person spoke, Ye Lin slowly closed his eyes.
From popularizing cultivation knowledge to understanding profound cultivation experiences, Ye Lin diligently studied and comprehended them.
The fact that he possessed Fate Traits astrological attribute of Divine Comprehension made it seem less difficult for him to understand.
