Chapter IV

Ah Sheng knew that the next two levels must be much more difficult than climbing the ladder. But he also knew that he must not back down, even if he gave up his life, he had to fight.

Knock Knock Knock –

A dull bell suddenly came from the depths of the sea of clouds, and everyone was full of energy.

Ah Sheng looked around, and he was on a vast rectangular platform, where thousands of Gongshan people gathered.

Beyond the platform, there is an endless sea of clouds.

At one end of the platform, a huge stone gate slowly appeared, and a stone arch bridge could be seen behind the door, looming in the depths of the sea of clouds.

"That's the Fuyun Bridge, cross that bridge, and you'll enter the West Mountain Gate. The voice of the sword soul sounded in Ah Sheng's head.

Ah Sheng was a little surprised, and asked secretly: "I thought that climbing the cloud ladder would be to the West Mountain Gate." ”

"The three checkpoints of Xishan Gate: climbing the cloud ladder, Wangyun Gate, and Fuyun Bridge are also the three necessary roads to enter the Xishan Gate. You've only just passed the ladder—" Sword Soul said.

Ah Sheng nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then how do you pass the next two levels?"

As soon as Ah Sheng finished speaking, the bell stopped, and the sea of clouds above the platform suddenly began to roll, and a huge cloud eagle fell from the sky and hung in front of the Wangyun Gate.

This cloud eagle was more than half a zhang tall, much larger than the one killed by the sword soul, and was covered in gray-brown feathers. On Yun Ying's back, there stood a man in a red robe, his long hair reaching to his waist, neatly tied behind his head, and there was no wind to automatic. The facial features are like a knife, with sharp edges and corners. The gaze is bright and deep, as if it can see through people's hearts.

"I am Shun Hua, the fifteenth chief disciple of the Xishan Gate, and I have come to greet all the Gongshan seekers on the order of the first seat—" His voice was not loud, but it turned into an invisible wave of sound, echoing throughout the platform, deafening.

The people around looked at Shunhua, their eyes were shining, full of admiration.

"Amazing!" Even the Sword Soul let out a sigh of admiration and said, "This kid is less than thirty years old, and he has actually reached the cultivation of the Tongyuan Realm, and has become the chief disciple of the Xishan Sect. With his talent, even when he enters the inner door, he is also a leader. Well, after the mountain gate is wide open this time, he should be able to enter the inner gate. ”

Hearing the Tongyuan Realm, Ah Sheng was also taken aback, the Sword Soul had told him that there were nine realms on the path of cultivating immortals, and each breakthrough was extremely difficult.

In addition, there are also the three tribulations of heaven, earth and man, which are extremely difficult and dangerous. If you are not careful, it can be ruined for decades of cultivation, or at worst, your meridians will be damaged, your spirit will collapse, and even your body will be shattered and your soul will be scattered.

In short, once the catastrophe fails, the end will be extremely miserable.

And the Tongyuan Realm is the fourth realm in the Nine Realms of Cultivating Immortals.

In order to reach the Tongyuan realm, one must pass through the first human tribulation of the three tribulations. At that time, immortal cultivators will not only be able to sense the vitality of heaven and earth, but even control the flow of vitality within a certain range.

This is a watershed between immortal cultivators, a gap that is absolutely insurmountable.

"When will I be able to cultivate to his level?" Ah Sheng secretly envied in his heart.

Shun Hua pointed to the Wangyun Gate behind him and said, "The gate you see is the Wangyun Gate, and it is the second checkpoint of Gongshan. You can enter it on your own, and if you can pass through it safely, you can step onto the Floating Cloud Bridge, which is the final level. Those who successfully cross the Fuyun Bridge can become the sixteenth generation disciple of the Xishan Sect of my Yunxiao Sect. ”

"Shunhua Venerable—" A voice in the crowd rang out, asking loudly, "What are the Wangyun Gate Pass and Fuyun Bridge Pass?"

"When you enter it, you will know. Shun Hua smiled slightly, and then said: "The first lord and my peak master of the West Mountain Gate will be waiting for you at the other end of the Fuyun Bridge. ”

With that, the huge cloud eagle flapped its wings, rolled up a whirlwind, flew into the thick sea of clouds, and disappeared.

The audience suddenly set off a noise, and people began to talk to each other, guessing the assessment content of the next two levels. There are also people who have begun to organize teams and are about to break through in groups.

Ah Sheng knew that no one would team up with him, so he could only ask Sword Soul again: "How should I pass the next two levels?"

"In this cloud gate, it is an illusion, and the test is the mind. Those who are mentally incomplete or not tenacious enough are easy to get lost. This is not difficult for you who have cultivated the centrifugal sword technique. The trouble is that the Floating Cloud Bridge Pass-"

Hearing that the sword soul was in trouble, Ah Sheng's brows suddenly squeezed together.

"The stone slab on the Fuyun Bridge can test a person's cultivation talent. Only those who are talented can step on the stone slab to cross the bridge. Those with mediocre qualifications will sink the slate. The worse the qualification, the deeper it sinks, until it falls into the sea of clouds. ”

"Ahh If this is the case, the possibility of entering the West Mountain Gate is very slim.

Ah Sheng's face was a little ugly, the sword soul should have known the assessment content of Xishan Gate early on.

The sword soul seemed to have guessed what Ah Sheng was thinking, and said in a deep voice: "Do you think that the entrance assessment of other mountain gates will not be qualified? If you go to other mountain gates, you will not have the slightest chance of passing." Only this Fuyun Bridge of the West Mountain Gate, you can cheat-"

"Doing-" Ah Sheng almost exclaimed, he quickly shut up, and asked in his heart, "What did you say?

"Hahaha, have you forgotten that in the centrifugal sword technique, there is a trick to step on the qi?"

"That's right, why didn't I think of it-" Ah Sheng Daxi, if you use the Stepping Qi Technique, you can step on the sword qi without stepping on those stone slabs on the Fuyun Bridge, so that you can get through the trick.

At this time, some people have already walked into Wangyun Gate one after another. What is amazing is that the front and back of the Wangyun Gate are transparent, but those people step forward, and their figures suddenly disappear.

Ah Sheng knew that those people had entered the illusion. He raised his head and looked around, and saw that the big man who had saved him earlier was holding the little girl's hand, talking and laughing towards Wangyunmen.

Ah Sheng hurriedly ran after him, and whispered: "Benefactor, benefactor, please stay." ”

Dahan heard Ah Sheng's voice, stopped, and said with a smile: "If you want to form a team, then you are looking for the wrong person." ”

"No, no, no, the benefactor misunderstood-" Ah Sheng hurriedly waved his hand, he looked around cautiously, and saw that not too many people noticed this, so he lowered his voice and said: "In this Wangyun Gate, it is an illusion, and the test is the mind. If you are a benefactor, you will be fine. But if you let the daughter break through, you should be careful, after all, she is still young, and her mind may be lacking-"

A hint of surprise flashed in Dahan's eyes, but he asked with a smile: "How did you know that this illusion in Wangyunmen is a test of the mind?"

Ah Sheng was speechless for a moment, of course he couldn't say that it was a sword to tell him, he could only say: "I, I also know it from a friend." Well, benefactor, be careful, farewell—"

After that, Ah Sheng stopped talking and took the lead in entering Wangyun Gate.

Looking at Ah Sheng's disappearing figure, a meaningful smile appeared on Dahan's face.

"This kid, it's kind of interesting—"
