Chapter 39: A Strange Road, A Familiar Pain
Seeing Yunlan coming up, Feng Yan didn't say much, turned around and walked to the side, and Lan Xuanhuang didn't say anything. The two seemed to have made an appointment, and they had a tacit understanding.
The location of the sacred courtyard is deep in the rolling mountain stream, because of its unique geographical location, and thousands of years of inheritance, it has a long history, and is respected as the first courtyard in the mainland. Although there are many holy places on the mainland, such as snow valleys, flower realms, ancient capitals and other places, they cannot be compared with them in terms of influence.
The several continuous mountain ranges that make up the Holy Courtyard have countless internal formations and many mechanisms, and if you want to enter it, unless you are led by someone inside, even if you are a king-level person, you will fall here.
Along the way, He Yan has reminded everyone more than once to be careful of all kinds of traps, dangers and the like. And dozens of people also went through a day and a night of adventure and came to the main gate of the holy courtyard.
At this time, standing on the cliff at the top, everyone was surprised, it was hard to imagine that the unknown depth of the heavenly curse in front of them was actually the first level to enter the Holy Courtyard.
There is a saying: the clouds are deep and do not know where. When it is so deep that it is insurmountable, it will leave an unfathomable impression in the bottom of people's hearts.
At this moment, everyone's hearts were impressed by the existence of the Holy Courtyard. Even after seeing countless buildings, Lan Xuanhuang would be attracted by such a majestic and atmospheric "welcome" method of the Holy Courtyard.
"Well, as you can see, this is just the beginning of wanting to enter the Holy Courtyard. Next, you will be tested by the Holy House for the first time. At this time, He Yan spoke.
"What? And the assessment! Is this over? ”
In the crowd, some people showed restless expressions, and some people had very ugly faces, as if they did not want to accept such a result.
"Hmph, not really. If the temple had been so easy to enter, it wouldn't have the reputation it has today. You don't want to think about it, is one of the people cultivated by the Holy Courtyard a waste? One of them said calmly.
Lan Xuanhuang remembered that this was the person who participated in the assessment with them, although he didn't have much contact, but he could also feel a sense of justice from him, and he was a very daring person.
He Yan glanced at him and nodded his head, "What Ling Yun said is right, the Holy Academy never cultivates waste people, but it will not recruit a group of waste people to come in, if you want to become a member of the Holy Academy, you can only rely on your own ability." ”
"So what are we going to do to get in?" A thin man asked.
"It's easy, just walk over there." He Yan squinted and replied.
"Huh? How does this go? Elder, you're not fooling us. ”
Yun Lan frowned, with a look of hesitation, with a look of hesitation? This can also be done? Could it be that there is still a secret way?
He Yan looked calm, "The scene in front of you is neither virtual nor real, you have to rely on your heart to recognize the way, so that you can walk through." Of course, what is the eye of the heart, this is your own question to think about, I am just a guide. If you have passed, then everyone will be happy, and if you can't get through it, you will never be able to set foot in the holy courtyard for half a step. ”
"That's weird, isn't it? The Holy Courtyard had never had such an assessment before! Someone exclaimed.
"Who knows! What is not the eye of the heart? Is there a path above this damnation? "Someone is inexplicable.
"Whatever, let it go...... "There are even newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers."
Many appearances fall in the eyes of He Yan, either disappointed or affirmed, in short, no matter what, they must get through this hurdle.
"Your time is only half a day, that is to say, from the moment you stand on this land, the assessment has already begun, how to face it, you choose for yourself. After half a day, I will be waiting on the opposite side for those who have passed, and those who have not yet passed, sorry, you have to go back the way you came. ”
The rules are ironclad, but the competition is brutal.
After He Yan said this, some people began to try to go in the direction of heaven's damnation.
"Xuanhuang, what do you think of this assessment item?" Yun Lan asked, standing beside Lan Xuanhuang.
"It's hard to say, anything is possible." Lan Xuanhuang looked at the Heavenly Curse on the opposite side and said in a deep voice.
"Oh? What are your thoughts? Yun Lan looked at her.
"Damnation is as insurmountable as the naked eye, but there is a difference between reality and fiction, and I suspect that this is a psychedelic formation that can block people's vision. It's just that the power of this formation is beyond our cognition, so it seems very dangerous, of course, this is just one of my opinions, what it is, only when we walk past it. Lan Xuanhuang said calmly.
Yun Lan pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I think this curse is not so complicated, the so-called heart eye may just test our courage, or it is to test our state in the face of this difficulty. ”
"That makes sense, so be it, you wait here for me first, and I'll talk to you when I'm over." Lan Xuanhuang said.
"No, I don't agree."
As soon as he heard her words, Yun Lan refused directly without thinking about it.
"Why? I'm not absolutely sure, but I don't joke with my life. Lan Xuanhuang looked at him puzzled.
"If you want to go, I will go first, how can I make you stand up and take risks again and again!" Yunlan said solemnly, his handsome face was full of seriousness.
"There is no such thing as a first-come, first-come, first-served thing, you still ......"
"Behold, the man walks in the void."
Just as Lan Xuanhuang was halfway through speaking, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.
Several people immediately looked at each other.
"How can it be him!" Yun Muqing muttered in a low voice.
Mo Bai looked at Feng Yan with admiration, "This person is so powerful." ”
"It seems that there really is a way, so let's go there in turn!" Lan Xuanhuang proposed.
"I'll go ahead, Mo Bai will follow, Mu Qing, you will walk in front of Xuanhuang, so that we can take care of each other. If you want to go over, there should be no problem. Yun Lan immediately assigned. The main reason was that he was afraid that Lan Xuanhuang would veto his approach, so before he could discuss it, he directly decided on it.
"Is that good......" Lan Xuanhuang paused.
"Well, no problem. Sister Xuanhuang, you have to trust my brother's decision once in a while. Yun Muqing hurriedly said.
"I think so."
Lan Xuanhuang looked at Mo Bai, but got his unanimous opinion, so he shook his head helplessly.
"Well, if there's anything, I'll pick you up in the rear."
After deciding, the group walked to the edge of heaven's damnation.
At this time, there were already dozens of people standing on the edge, and some of them cowered and took brave steps at the instigation of others. It's a pity that the reality slapped them hard!
This heavenly curse is by no means as simple as Feng Yan expressed, the man who was instigated to leave, just took a step, and fell into the abyss. All that was left in the sky was his screams.
"This doesn't work, how did that guy find a way?"
The few people standing on the edge looked a little annoyed, and many of the people behind them left them far away when they saw this scene, for fear that they would calculate it.
"Whatever the outcome, you wait for me to be sure before you walk over, okay?" Yun Lan said in a deep voice.
"Well, I know, don't worry." Mo Bai replied from behind him.
"Then I'll go."
Looking at Yun Muqing, and then at Lan Xuanhuang, he turned around and walked out.
In front of him was a void land, but only when he was truly immersed in the scene, Yun Lan knew that there was indeed a path in the void leading to the Holy Courtyard. The road seemed to be tangible, but in fact there was no trace of it, and after two or three steps out, he knew what the eyes of the heart were.
To put it bluntly, this path cannot be seen with the eyes, and can only be experienced by integrating oneself into this void.
When he had this experience and came up with the path he was groping, Yunlan turned around and wanted to warn a few people behind him, but he didn't expect that there was a cloud and mist all around, and there were no more people.
"How so?"
Yunlan called out loudly, but he didn't have any response, and what appeared in front of him was only a way forward. He had a hunch that if he gave up moving forward, or took a step back, the road in front of him would never be seen again.
What should he do?
"Sister Xuanhuang, why can't you see my brother, will something happen to him?" After a while, Yun Muqing looked at the Heavenly Curse Void with some concern and said.
"It's fine, it shouldn't be a problem." Lan Xuanhuang looked at He Yan's expression and responded.
According to the situation along the way, she saw He Yan's concern for a few of them, if something really happened to Yunlan, I was afraid that he would make a difference.
"Alright then, I'll just wait." Yun Muqing retracted her thoughts.
It's just that the three of them waited until dozens of people left. Soon, only the three of them were left here.
"There's still an hour, what should I do? Want to go? Mo Bai reminded.
Lan Xuanhuang felt He Yan's gaze, his face sank, and he said in a low voice: "Let's go, go over together." ”
The three of them stopped and jumped out from the edge of the damnation.
There was no sense of falling, and there was no howling wind, but what appeared in front of them was a different kind of road.
If the heart is strong, it is blocked by thousands of people, and there is no fear at all.
The road Lan Xuanhuang saw was full of twists and turns, and it was full of thorns. On this road, there are no shortcuts, no ends, only infinite murderous aura and chill.
"Is that what they see?" Lan Xuanhuang whispered.
seems to be standing on the thunder road of the year, although there is a devastating thunder ahead, but she chooses to move forward as always.
When I took the first step forward, the scene in front of me changed again.
The world of flying snow drifting, with a bit of coldness, is an ordinary wooden road, surrounded by several red plum and snow trees. As far as the eye can see, there seems to be a long pavilion opposite, and there is still a person sitting in it.
Lan Xuanhuang was a little confused in front of him, what kind of place is this?
Walking in the aisle, a red figure shuttled in front of him, so wanton and frivolous, so bold and confident. Isn't this person her?
But where is this? Is this a memory that belongs to her? Who are the people inside the pavilion?
The more I thought about it, the more intense the heartache became. It's a feeling she'd felt a long time ago, and now it's back. Although she didn't want to touch it, she always felt the pain invisibly.
Standing in place, Lan Xuanhuang was motionless, at this moment, she didn't know how to choose......
