"This ......"

Seeing that the sword qi around him was becoming more and more violent, Chen Nan's heart suddenly hesitated, and he even faintly had the intention of retreating.

It was only a dozen steps, and the sword qi around him was already so strong, it was conceivable how difficult it would be to really complete all the thousands of stone steps in front of him?

With his current strength, it is almost impossible!

"What should I do?"

Chen Nan is not a fool, and he has not been carried away by the relics of the Shushan Sword Sect, knowing that he can't do it, he still has to rush into it with all his heart......

If you have a choice, Chen Nan really doesn't want to take risks, so it's a big deal to wait for his strength to become stronger, and then come here to find out?

It won't run anyway?

But the question is, does he really have a choice now?

The retreat behind him had already been broken, and even if he retreated down the stone steps now, it would only be safe for the time being! Unless he could find a way to break the previous weird formation, he wouldn't be able to leave here at all......

I knew that I wouldn't jump down with Tang Yulong, because the passage at that time had actually been opened by someone! As long as they could find a place to hide at that time, as soon as those people left, they would naturally be able to leave here safely.

At the end of the day, I'm too impulsive!

It's good now, Tang Yulong's life and death are unknown, and he is completely trapped here......

It's a pity that there has never been regret medicine in this world, since it is already like this, then he can only resign himself to fate and take one step at a time!

"Alas!"

Thinking of this, Chen Nan had to quickly empty the messy thoughts in his head, and the top priority was that he should quickly recover the true qi in his body first.

Chen Nan sat cross-legged directly, but before he could urge the exercises in his body, he was suddenly stunned for a moment, and suddenly found that those sword qi that slashed at his body could actually be refined?

"Huh?"

Chen Nan was shocked, where did he dare to hesitate at all, and then he urged the few true qi in his body, and directly refined the surrounding sword qi......

In less than five minutes, Chen Nan suddenly stood up, and actually walked forward about ten steps in one breath?

"I see!"

A flash of surprise flashed in Chen Nan's eyes, as if he understood the meaning of the existence of these steps, it turned out that this thing was not a sword formation, but something like a test!

Only when the people who are close to here comprehend the sword intent around them can they not be disturbed by these sword qi and thus safely ascend these steps.

"Great!"

Chen Nan finally saw hope in his heart, as the most proud disciple under the Tianzun Throne, Chen Nan's talent, naturally needless to say, it was definitely the best of the best!

Therefore, his comprehension of sword intent was very fast, and almost every few minutes of meditation, he could easily climb more than a dozen steps.

In this way, after just half an hour, Chen Nan not only climbed about a hundred steps in one go, but also had a new awakening to the way of the sword!

In this way, Chen Nan continued to move forward, although the sword intent around him became stronger and stronger, Chen Nan's pace of progress was not affected in the slightest, and even accelerated a lot!

When he got to the back, he only needed to comprehend for five minutes, and he could directly cross the steps of nearly fifty steps.

But the further he went, the more frightened Chen Nan became, because by the time he got behind, the sword qi had almost become so strong that it was beyond limit! If he hadn't comprehended the true meaning of the sword intent, he would be directly immune to these sword qi, even with Chen Nan's body, I am afraid that he would be directly shattered into powder by these sword qi!

Not only that, but Chen Nan also found that the number of stone steps was actually far more than he had estimated at the beginning!

Because two hours later, Chen Nan had successfully climbed the stone staircase of nearly 1,000 steps, but he still couldn't see the end of the stone staircase......

It's just that at this time, he has long lost the anxiety just now, and even hopes that the more stone ladders there are, the better, because the more stone ladders, the more sword intent he can comprehend!

Even if there is nothing in this Shushan ruins, this sword intent alone is actually the biggest gain of Chen Nan's trip!

If he was a little jealous of Huang Xinghai just now, then Chen Nan at this time had almost completely ignored him! Chen Nan was even absolutely sure that he could kill him with one blow!

The Shushan Sword Sect really lived up to its reputation, it was just a sword intent, and it actually greatly improved Chen Nan's strength!

As time passed, Chen Nan was almost completely immersed in the comprehension of the sword intent, and he was hungry and thirsty! Together with the mastery of the flying sword in his hand, he also had a new comprehension at this time, and he truly achieved it like an arm and a finger, completely turning into an extension of his body!

In the end, I don't know how long it was, Chen Nanzheng was deeply trapped and couldn't extricate himself, but the powerful sword intent that originally shrouded him around him disappeared inexplicably at this time?

"Huh?"

Chen Nan was obviously stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt empty in his heart, but he was actually a little unaccustomed to it?

After staring, I realized that I had reached the end of the stone staircase and finally reached the top......

Looking back at the world behind him, Chen Nan suddenly realized, because the stone staircase is no more, no less, it is just 3,000 steps, could it be a symbol of the legendary 3,000 avenues?

Thinking like this in his heart, not far from him, a cold and emotionless voice suddenly sounded at this time: "Are you back......?"

"Huh?"

Chen Nan was startled, turned around suddenly, and found that not far from him, a middle-aged man wearing a black robe with a face like a knife actually appeared at this time!

"What?"

Chen Nan was scared enough, and said in his heart when did this guy appear, but he didn't notice it at all?

"You ......"

Chen Nan subconsciously took two steps back, and said with a vigilant face: "Who are you? When did you come?"

It's a pity that the other party ignored him at all, and still read to himself: "It's been 100,000 years, and finally let me wait for you......"

"Ten...... 100,000 years?"

Chen Nan was a little dumbfounded, didn't that mean that the other party had lived for at least 100,000 years?

Good boy!

Frankly speaking, it was the first time he met someone on earth who had lived longer than himself, and he actually lived for 100,000 years?

More importantly, it also confirms his previous conjecture that the Earth is not as simple as he thinks, let alone just a cage.

He even had a very bold idea, that is, the years of the earth's existence were likely to be even older than the cultivation realm......

But at this time, he obviously didn't have the leisure to think about this, but looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with a wary face.

Somehow, there was obviously not a trace of true qi leaking out of the man's body, but it always gave Chen Nan an unfathomable feeling! Even he felt that even when he was in his heyday, he might not be this person's opponent!

But how is this possible?

Isn't the "end of the Dharma era" on earth not over? How could there be such a master?

However, he didn't seem to be hostile to himself, so he hurriedly asked, "Who are you, and why are you here?"

"Huh?"

It was only at this time that the middle-aged man seemed to react, and then grinned at him: "You don't know me anymore?"

"Huh?"

Chen Nan was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, should I know you?

"It's okay if you don't know!"

Seeing that Chen Nan didn't look like he was pretending, the middle-aged man's face couldn't help but smile even happier, and then said: "Anyway, you still passed my test after all!

"Oh?"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Nan's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he set his eyes on the pavilion not far away, that place has not been completely destroyed, and there should be a lot of good things in it!

So he said, "Isn't everything here mine?"

"Yes!"

The middle-aged man nodded, but before Chen Nan could be surprised, as if he had guessed what Chen Nan was thinking, the middle-aged man immediately changed his words: "I know what you're thinking, but I advise you not to have any big hopes, everything here has already been ruined!

"So I'm afraid the only one you can inherit is me......"
