049, Heavenly Steps

Yan Xiao nodded and took his words, "Obviously, the initial illusion is like a test of our minds. Later, although we met the blue snake, the blood wolf, and the bronze crocodile, they all stopped when we were about to hold on. She frowned in thought.

Seeing the expression on her face, Cheng Yi chuckled and said, "I saw that Yan Daoyou made an extraordinary move, so he must have left Biyun Mountain to join the Great Sect, right?" ”

Yan Xiao looked up in surprise, not knowing why Cheng Yi suddenly brought the topic here, but he still nodded.

"Then I don't know if Yan Daoyou passed the sect test to enter the big sect?" Cheng Yi saw that she was a little confused, but he didn't explain and continued to ask.

Yan Xiao shook her head, she had seen that the real person had directly brought them into the sect by accepting disciples outside, and she directly saved the process of Yaoguang Trying.

But she had heard Yan Chuhan say that Yaoguang tested. This Yaoguang Examination, like other sect examinations, is held every five years for the purpose of recruiting external disciples. The disciples who passed the Yaoguang test and entered the Yaoguang Sect were all ordinary formal disciples. And Yan Xiao is the disciple of the real person, and his status is higher than that of ordinary formal disciples.

In the Yaoguang Sect, each Jiedan monk has a total of three places to directly recruit disciples from outside, eliminating them from the procedure of participating in the Yaoguang Examination.

"Hmm." Cheng Yi shook his head when he saw Yan Xiao, and he didn't seem surprised, he just heard him say: "It's not surprising, although the content of each sect's sect test is different, it is still basically the same. For example, what we have experienced this time is a very typical model of the sect test. Yan Daoyou has never experienced it, so it's not surprising that he can't see it. ”

"In your opinion, what we are experiencing now is the sect test of a certain sect?" Yan Xiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Cheng Yi, as if she didn't believe it.

This place has been biased towards the southern part of the Tianyuan Continent, there are not many sects, and the only famous big sect is Danxin Valley hundreds of miles away. But Yan Xiao didn't think that they would set up a sect test in this place, and they were accidentally in.

"Naturally, this will not be the sect test of Danxin Valley." Cheng Yi seemed to know what Yan Xiao was thinking, so he continued: "Yan Daoyou has not participated in the sect test, so it is normal not to know, generally the sect test of each sect will be set up near the sect, so that the elders in the sect can investigate at any time. Therefore, this place will definitely not be the sect test of Danxin Valley. ”

"Then according to the opinion of Daoyou, which sect should be the sect test here?" When Yan Xiao heard this explanation, she remembered the Yaoguang test that Yan Chuhan introduced to her, and it seemed that it was indeed within the range of Jingchang Mountain. In this way, she believed Cheng Yi's words a little more.

"I think it's very likely that this is the sect test of an ancient sect." Cheng Yi touched his chin, and after a long time, he finally spoke: "The pupil blood wolf is almost invisible in the current immortal cultivation world, it is said that in the beast tide thousands of years ago, it was slaughtered by the monks and almost extinct, and the remaining pupil blood wolf was almost no longer born. But here, there is such a large group. He turned to face Yan Xiao: "What does Yan Daoyou think this means?" ”

Yan Xiao didn't answer yet, but he heard Cheng Yi say: "The third-order pupil blood wolf is said to be the kind of demon beast that some ancient sects that have died out earlier like to put in the sect test. Nowadays, the third-order pupil blood wolf is too difficult to find, and many sects have replaced it with a third-order phantom pattern wolf. ”

Just when Yan Xiao nodded slowly, he heard Cheng Yi say again: "But these are my guesses, how it is, I have to climb this stone step to know." ”

Both of them looked up at the same time, looking at the stone steps with no end in sight.

"I heard that the last level of the sect test is generally a test of the candidate's mind and perseverance, I don't know if what I said is correct?" Yan Xiao turned his head sideways and looked at Cheng Yi beside him.

Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows, turned his head sideways and nodded at Yan Xiao, and then, as if the two had made an appointment, they walked towards the stone steps in front of them.

After the two climbed the stone steps, they turned back again, only to see that the green wilderness they had originally come from had turned into a cliff at this moment, and the back road had been cut off, and it was impossible to turn back.

Yan Xiao silently turned his head and followed behind Cheng Yi, and the two climbed up one after the other.

One, two, three, four...... One hundred and five, one hundred and six......

Yan Xiao was still counting the steps one by one at the beginning. It wasn't until later that she counted to tens of thousands, and when she looked up, she still saw endless stone steps, and gradually, she gave up counting as a way to pass the time.

However, as soon as she gave up a few steps, she faintly heard a faint voice ringing in her ears.

"Why are you cultivating immortals?"

"I want to be stronger." Yan Xiao replied unconsciously, even she herself was taken aback, but she seemed to be unable to control it at all.

"What is it for?"

"Protect the people you value and protect yourself from dragging others down." She replied silently.

……

After several questions in succession, Yan Xiao unconsciously opened her mouth and said her innermost thoughts.

"What is the Immortal Dao?" With each question, the hazy voice becomes clearer. This time, Yan Xiao even felt that the source of the voice was not far away.

"Immortal Dao ......" She subconsciously wanted to answer, but suddenly found that her heart was in chaos.

What is the Immortal Dao? Yan Xiao frowned, pondering hard, but still had no answer.

Her feet no longer needed her command, and she unconsciously climbed the stone steps one by one, while the four words "What is the Immortal Dao" kept echoing in her mind, "What is the Immortal Dao?" ”

Yan Xiao first thought of her previous life, then thought of her mother-in-law, thought of Biyunmen, thought of Su Jianzhen, thought of Ning Han, Ji Jinyu, He Boyuan, He Bojun, and then thought of the Yaoguang faction, thought of Tongchen Zhenren, Yan Chuhan, Qingyuan Daojun, and then thought of Cheng Yi, and thought of Guo Lao......

Everyone's path seems to be different. Since it is different, what is the Immortal Dao? Yan Xiao felt that this question seemed to be wrong.

"Hey! Is your question wrong! She shouted, but no one answered.

"Everyone has their own immortal path, and there is no answer at all!" She could even hear her own echo, but no one paid any attention to her. It was as if the voice had vanished, never to be seen again.

She must have thought something wrong. Yan Xiao tried to calm herself down.

Since everyone has their own immortal path, what is her path?

Yan Xiao found that she never seemed to have thought about this question.

She suddenly thought of Cheng Yi, and she didn't know what his way was?

"Cheng Daoyou! Cheng Daoyou! Yan Xiao called twice, but no one responded. She raised her head and was surprised to find that Cheng Yi, who had been walking in front of her, disappeared from nowhere.

Cheng Yi is gone, so who will answer her question?

Yan Xiao climbed the stone steps while meditating, and gradually, he seemed to have entered a mysterious realm.
