In the huge castle, there was silence.

Within a radius of hundreds of zhang, it is extremely empty.

Ling Xingnan saw the situation in the castle at a glance, there was a high platform dozens of zhang wide, the high platform was about ten zhang high, and there were classes all around, which could accommodate people to climb the ladder step by step and go straight to the high platform.

There are four small purple doors of strange material around the bottom of the high platform, and there is a cave groove made of sand and stone faintly above the high platform, and it has been flashing from the cave groove with brilliant purple light......

After Ling Xingnan saw this qiē clearly, he suddenly understood a little in his heart.

"It seems that there must be some rare treasure in the groove of the sandstone cave on that high platform?" Ling Xingnan said secretly.

However, Ling Xingnan did not walk towards the high platform in a daze, but looked carefully around the high platform, and sure enough, there were some extraordinary discoveries.

It turned out that there was a small defensive formation with energy fluctuations around the high platform, which was almost the same as the effect of the defensive formation outside the sand castle, but it was much smaller.

And the four small purple gates with strange materials are exactly where the Guò defense formation must go to the high platform.

Ling Xingnan looked at the four purple doors again, and found that among the four purple doors, three of them were closed, and only one was open......

Behind the purple door is naturally a hundred steps of stairs that walk up to the high platform from their respective directions, and on the steps behind the purple door that is empty, there is a white skeleton in a purple shirt, obviously this white bone skeleton was also a monk of the Shinto realm before his death, and he can enter here from outside the fire desert, which is obviously not an ordinary monk.

But. What surprised Ling Xingnan the most was not this white bone skeleton, but the strange beads of purple light scattered next to the white bone skeleton.

This bead gave Ling Xingnan a sense of déjà vu. And Ling Xingnan could clearly feel that this bead was something that had always had some kind of faint inductive connection with the fire Yuan Force in his body.

Suddenly. Ling Xingnan remembered it instantly, and exclaimed, "Hey, is this bead ...... If it's true, then wouldn't I have lost a lot of luck?"

So, Ling Xingnan walked to the small purple door that was open, and touched the space inside the purple door with his Yuan Force, and after making sure that only the small purple door that was open could penetrate the Yuan Force, and that the other places could block the penetration of the Yuan Force even though they were transparent voids, he finally slowly walked into the small purple door that was open in the void.

Fang Yi entered the small purple door. Ling Xingnan immediately sensed a scorching wave of qi coming to his body, especially when he felt that his shoulders suddenly felt a little heavier, and an invisible pressure was instantly applied to his body.

"Sure enough, this place is a little different from the outside, and it looks like I have to be careful......"

As soon as Ling Xingnan walked into the space behind the purple door, he immediately noticed that the space behind the purple door was indeed a little different from the outside, and his vigilance increased again.

Although the other genus Yuan forces in Ling Xingnan's body had not fully recovered at this time, the fire genus Yuan forces in the dantian were already extremely full, and he was not too worried.

Finally, after Ling Xingnan raised enough vigilance. Step by step, you will walk up the stone steps facing the high platform.

However, it was also extremely strange to say, every time Ling Xingnan took a step towards the stone steps on the high platform, the pressure on his body increased by one point, and the scorching power transmitted to the soles of his feet through the stone steps was also stronger.

The place where the bones lay upside down. Not far from Ling Xingnan, about forty steps of stairs, the bead that had some kind of sensing with the fire element force in Ling Xingnan's body rolled down to more than thirty steps.

Ling Xingnan still walked towards the high platform step by step. Despite the increasing pressure on the body, the scorching force under the feet is also getting stronger. But he still kept going, and moving forward......

Just when Ling Xingnan stepped on the twentieth step of the stairs. Suddenly, a strange fluctuation of air currents over the high platform was generated.

In an instant, Ling Xingnan felt a flash of purple light on the high platform that had no warning, and a ray of light broke through the air and hit the invisible gang cover covered by the formation, and the light was immediately refracted back, and when the light turned back, it turned into a sword light in the void, which contained a strong fire elemental force, and the power seemed to have been strengthened.

Impartially, he slashed directly at the place where Ling Xingnan was standing.

Seeing this, Ling Xingnan was shocked.

In such a flash of lightning, he could no longer afford to think about it.

Ling Xingnan had no choice but to pull out the purple cloud knife behind his back, and also surged out the fire yuan power in the dantian in his body, and he also slashed out with all his strength......

Hearing only a pop, the sword light slashed on the sword, and the fire element power contained in the two was not weak, but Ling Xingnan directly emitted the power of the sword with the sword momentum, which was more direct and much more condensed, naturally forcibly destroying the power of that sword.

However, Ling Xingnan's figure was also shaken by the power in that sword, and he was almost about to retreat from the twentieth step ladder.

"The high platform here is really not so easy to climb, it seems that the eighty steps below are even more difficult!" Ling Xingnan shook his head and sighed.

Just as Ling Xingnan shook his head and sighed, suddenly a cold voice resounded over the high platform: "Junior is destined, congratulations on passing the first level...... There are four more levels below, each of which doubles in difficulty than the previous one. The first level is a sword slash, the second level is a double sword attack, the third level is a three-sword crossing, the fourth level is a four-sword circle, and the fifth level is a five-sword formation...... The 100-step stairs around the high platform, the deity cloth takes 20 steps as a level, but the monk needs to have the strength to challenge the level after the level, and those who pass the five levels can obtain the treasures left by the deity. If the younger generations are destined to have no confidence to break through, they can quit as soon as possible, otherwise they will bear the consequences......!

After Ling Xingnan heard this cold voice, he immediately understood in his heart, and sure enough, he confirmed what he thought before, the hundred-step stairs under this high platform were indeed not so easy to climb.

"Twenty steps is a level, and the ability to leapfrog the challenge is still needed to cross the back...... However, this kind of test is still extremely difficult! Presumably, that dry bone is a Shinto realm monk who has not been able to break through the second level, right? I am afraid that his realm cultivation will definitely not be weak, and he is still extremely confident in his own strength, otherwise it would be impossible to break through the Separation Desert and the defensive formation outside in a row. But...... That magical bead just fell on more than thirty steps, I can collect that bead first!" Ling Xingnan glanced at the dry bones not far away and the bead that fell on the stairs, and thought in his heart.

Then, Ling Xingnan really walked towards the bead that had fallen down more than thirty steps, although he had guessed in his heart that the bead was the Huogang Divine Bead that the Five Elements Divine Venerable had mentioned, but he was still a little unsure if he didn't get it in his hand.

So Ling Xingnan walked another fourteen or so steps forward, came to the mysterious bead that had fallen down the thirty-fifth step, and bent down to pick up the pale red bead.

As soon as the pale red bead was picked up by Ling Xingnan, there was indeed a sense of déjà vu in it, and a mighty fire Yuan Force was transmitted from the bead......

Yes......

The fire element force in the bead instantly infiltrated Ling Xingnan's body, and finally echoed with the fire element force in the dantian, and was immediately introduced into the dantian in the body.

Originally, the fire genus yuan force in Ling Xingnan's body at this time had completely recovered to its peak state, but under the action of the vast fire genus yuan force that suddenly seeped into that bead, it boiled violently, and soon there was a qualitative change.

"It's not good, I'm afraid that the fire spiritual exercises I have cultivated are about to be promoted to the realm...... No, my other five spiritual exercises have not yet broken through to the critical point of the exercises, and I can't advance to the realm with this one of these exercises, otherwise my cultivation of the Daluo Zhoutian Five Elements True Gang Gong will be abandoned. Ling Xingnan felt the changes in the cultivation techniques in his body and the changes in the fire yuan power in the dantian, and he immediately became secretly shocked.

As a result, Ling Xingnan began to forcibly suppress the operation of the Fire Elemental Spiritual Exercises, and then forcibly suppressed the Fire Elemental Force with the other five genus Yuan forces in the dantian, in an attempt to force the violent boiling momentum of the Fire Elemental Force down.

At this time, Ling Xingnan, intentionally or unintentionally, felt that the magical bead in his palm had indeed changed again.

Originally, it was just a pale red bead, but it suddenly began to flicker with orange, green, green, and white lights, and at the same time, an equally vast mixed genus force seeped into Ling Xingnan's body, and finally that vast mixed genus force converged towards the four metal elemental forces, wood elemental forces, water elemental forces, and earth elemental forces in Ling Xingnan's dantian.

It is as if the land that has been dry for a long time has encountered a flood that is rare in a century.

The other four metal elemental forces, wood elemental forces, water elemental forces, and earth elemental forces were gathered together by the vast mixed elemental forces, and the four elemental forces that had been consumed too much were instantly restored, and the four elemental forces also began to boil violently, and it didn't take long for all these four elemental forces to reach the peak of the qualitative change......

"Haha...... It's really good, I can't imagine that this bead is not only the Huogang Divine Bead, but it also contains a mixed Yuan Force left over from the Five Elements Divine Venerable!" Ling Xingnan felt that the five Five Elements Spiritual Divine Dao Techniques cultivated in his body had reached the critical point of promotion, and he was really overjoyed.

"Next, it's time for me to impact the fourth-layer realm of gods......" Ling Xingnan said secretly in his heart.

Next, Ling Xingnan put the Purple Cloud Knife behind him on the stone steps, and he sat on the Purple Cloud Knife with his butt, and began to run the Divine Dao Exercises, preparing to impact the fourth-layer realm of the gods.

Although the steps on the ground were already very hot, the heat transmitted through the Purple Cloud Knife had decreased a lot.

However, at this time, Ling Xingnan didn't care about these anymore, he had already fused his entire body and mind into the cultivation of the five spiritual exercises, and began to run the exercises one by one, preparing to advance to the realm of the fourth layer of gods. (To be continued......)
