"Whether you're my apprentice or someone who has broken in, please listen to my story before deciding whether to open the door!"

On the letterhead left by Yan Beigui, the first sentence was very interesting, and Shen Li calmed down and read quietly.

"Therefore, according to legend, in ancient times, there was a strong man Yunya Emperor who stood on one side, rose in this land, and established himself as the king for a while. Later, only because the emperor was cruel and unkind, the tyrannical conquest, the people were hungry and cold, and the people were desperate, which led to the warriors under the rule of the rebels rose up to resist, after years of war, after paying a great price, the power of the Yunya Emperor finally collapsed, in the siege of the warriors, the Yunya Emperor was seriously injured and fled, and went west out of Xianping Mountain to go into exile, and finally disappeared.

It is precisely because of this allusion that this land was named Yunzhou by later generations.

Legend has it that the Emperor of Yunya had the help of a strange woman of the foreign race when he was a teenager, and he only cultivated into the realm of speed, and then he eventually became a hegemon, and was grateful to the woman who helped him, not only married her as a concubine, but also did not hesitate to build a palace for her in the woman's hometown, because there was frozen ground all year round, the ice field for all ages, so the strange girl of the alien race was named the ice concubine, and the palace was called the Ice Abyss Palace because it was built under the ice field.

Yiyu Bingfei, Bingjie Yuanqing!

I don't know when, there are rumors that it is not a human race, but a demon race, specially to harm the world, from the beginning of her bewitching the Cloud Cliff Emperor to build the Ice Abyss Palace, it is the beginning of the defeat of the Cloud Cliff Emperor.

Most of the people in the world only think that the demon clan is a rumor, and there are many untruths, and then people have verified that the Emperor of Cloud Cliff was finally defeated overseas, maybe it was just to cover people's eyes, because when he fled, the Ice Concubine did not accompany him, so it is inferred that in fact, they have not fled at all, and have been hiding in the Ice Abyss Palace for many years, even after a hundred years, there are still occasional rumors in the world.

It's just that the world doesn't know where the Ice Abyss Palace is located, and the ice field is vast, even if you have the heart to find it, you can't find it at all. Thousands of years later, it became a secret story on the mainland.

Yan was fortunate enough to come to the ice field here when he was a beginner in his studies on the mainland, but he strayed here due to an accident.

Perhaps Yan was the first outsider to be lucky enough to enter this palace, so this secret is still known only to me.

It turned out that there was another reason for the defeat of the Cloud Cliff Emperor back then, and it was because a super strong man discovered the secret of the Ice Concubine.

The strong man broke into the Ice Abyss Palace and fought fiercely with the Cloud Cliff Emperor, who was finally defeated, and launched a mechanism to trap the strong here, triggering the earth, fire and thunder, in a vain attempt to kill the strong. But he didn't want the exit of the earth fire to deviate, and in the end, the strong man escaped, although he was trapped here, he also trapped the Cloud Cliff Emperor and the Ice Concubine in it and couldn't come out.

This is where the strong man lived, and he was bored and wrote a number of books, explaining the cause and effect of the matter, and the books were placed in the bookcase, and I will not repeat them, but you can read them yourself.

Later, the life of the strong man was consumed here, and when he was dying, he forcibly broke through one of the mountain walls of the palace at the exit of the earth fire, and set a ban to prevent the people of the Ice Abyss Palace from coming out of the gate.

After I got here, I was deeply attracted by the treasure left by the Ice Abyss Palace, and I have been in retreat here for seven years, but unfortunately because of the limitation of talent, the entry is really low, and I am afraid that I will not be able to meet the requirements of the strong man with all my life's energy, so I can only wait for the one who comes!

Although this blessed place is dangerous, it is indeed very beneficial for cultivators, if you can calm down and retreat and practice asceticism to meet the requirements left by the strong person, the day you will break through the realm of unity is just around the corner.

When I left, I also left a note of my experience in seven years of retreat, which you can read.

Finally, the last words of the strong man were relayed and admonished: Fortune comes from me, and creation lies with you!

That's it!"

The letter came to an abrupt end, but Shen Li already knew the whole story, and it seemed that this blessed land was far more difficult than he imagined.

Being able to trap a character like Yan Beigui in retreat for seven years and still not be able to break through shows how difficult it is.

But will Shen Li be afraid of challenges?

The answer is no!

When he read the letter, he had already made up his mind that he would not say seven years, but seventeen years, and twenty-seven years.

First, he is still young, there is time, and this is obviously Yan Beigui's regret, the most his true disciple, Shen Li has the obligation to help him achieve his wish, and at the same time, he can greatly improve his own ability, why not!

As for the rest, Shen Li had already left it behind.

Although the bookcase was very large, there were really not many books, and Shen Li quickly brought all the yellowed volumes to the table and read them one by one.

Sharpening the knife is not a woodcutter, at least he has to figure out what the secret that Yan Beigui did not explain is.

There are not many of these handmade notebooks. Shen Li was not in a hurry to cultivate, so he completely clarified the situation at a glance and ten lines.

It turns out that there really is a demon race in this world, and it is not made up by people.

These demon races live on the Xuanyuan Continent like humans, and they have continued their bloodline since ancient times, but the number of demon races is very scarce compared to humans, and the confrontation between their races is more barbaric and bloody than humans, plus they deliberately hide their tracks, and rarely openly operate in human territory, so they are rarely known.

In addition, the demon clan is very cruel and murderous by nature, and feeds on flesh and blood, not only human beings cannot be spared when they encounter them, but they will also eat each other among their kind.

Moreover, the most significant difference between the demon clan and the fierce beasts is that they have opened up their spiritual intelligence, they are as smart as humans, they can practice secret techniques, and because of the strength of their bloodline talent, they are far more powerful than human warriors.

And the vast majority of demon clans, after cultivating to a certain level, will also transform into human form and hide in the environment inhabited by humans, if they don't take the initiative to reveal it, humans can't detect it at all.

It's just that the demon clan is extremely harmful, and it often causes sensational bloody cases wherever they appear. At the worst time, there was a tragedy in which the demon clan slaughtered the entire human city.

Therefore, in ancient times, a very ancient and powerful organization was born, the Demon Hunting Guild, which only absorbed the strongest among the human warriors.

To be able to obtain the qualifications recognized by the Demon Hunting Guild, you must be a strong person who has reached the Unity Realm or above. And the Guiyi Realm is only a one-star demon hunter at the entry stage of the Demon Hunter Guild, if you want to get the promotion of status, you need to keep hunting demon beasts to advance, if you can reach the nine-star demon hunter, then the strength is already not inferior to the existence of the saint king among the human powerhouses.

The one who came to the Ice Abyss Palace back then was a six-star demon hunter, because he discovered the true identity of the Ice Concubine, and also understood the fact that the Ice Concubine confused the Cloud Cliff Emperor and caused trouble in Yunzhou, so he came to kill him, but the Cloud Cliff Emperor resolutely did not allow the six-star demon hunter to succeed in order to protect his lover.

The Cloud Cliff Emperor and the Ice Concubine, as well as the demons under the Ice Concubine, were all sealed in this Ice Abyss Palace, and there must have been no bones left in the past ten thousand years, but the construction of this Ice Abyss Palace back then was actually set up according to the pattern of the demon clan's secret residence, so there must be a continuation of the demon clan's bloodline inside.

The strong man exhausted the power of his life's cultivation, set a seal, broke the ban but finally buried his bones here, so he left a will, if there is a human warrior who can sweep away the descendants of the demon clan here, he will recommend someone to join the demon hunter union with his token.

The condition for joining is to take the relics and letters of recommendation of this six-star demon hunter, as well as the demon pills of all the demon beasts here, to participate in the trial of the demon hunter guild somewhere.

It turns out that in order to cultivate talents, the Demon Hunter Guild will also open the door to geniuses on the mainland, but all cultivators who are willing to join the Demon Hunter Guild and take it as their responsibility to uphold justice in the world will be included in their sight as long as they break through the Breaking Mystery Realm before the age of twenty.

The Demon Hunter Guild will issue a trial task, and as long as it can be completed, it will be exceptionally included as a trial demon hunter, and vigorously invest resources in training, which is far faster than the entry of the warrior to cultivate on his own.

Just wait for once you break through to the realm of unity, you will officially become a one-star demon hunter.

And the promise of the six-star demon hunter is that no matter who meets his conditions, not only is there no age limit, but also can pass the test without taking the test!

Undoubtedly, this is a powerful temptation, a temptation that all cultivators cannot refuse!

Once you complete this trial task, it is almost like being escorted into the realm of unity!

If you can break through the realm of unification, it will undoubtedly infinitely magnify the future of cultivation! What martial artist would be willing to refuse such an opportunity?

It must be known that although martial arts are admired on the continent and strength is respected, there is no breakthrough in the realm, and it is an insurmountable barrier for martial artists.

The population on the continent is tens of billions, and the difference between a saint and an ordinary man is just a mere seven realm barriers, why is it that from ancient times to the present, there are only nine people who are called saints, and eighteen people who are kings?

That's because it's so hard to break through.

Think about how many hardships Shen Li went through in order to open up the lower dantian and become a real cultivator?

That's just the first barrier at the cultivation level, just entering the Quenching Realm!

Although Shen Li himself was a special case, among the cultivators on the continent, only about one-tenth of the martial artists were able to open up the dantian and enter the quenching realm.

After the martial artists of the Quenching Body Realm cultivated hard, they entered the peak period of elimination, and about one out of every hundred Quenching Body Realm martial artists would break through to the Ning Yuan Realm on average.

And the cultivation of the Ning Yuan Realm began to be extremely difficult, absorbing and transforming the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and the process of condensing into the true yuan was very slow, it was during this period that most of the martial artists' life time was wasted, because if there was no solid Ning Yuan sacrifice, they would not be able to perceive the existence of the spiritual power of heaven and earth, let alone try to mobilize them, so many martial artists were stuck at the peak of the Ning Yuan Realm all their lives, and they could not surpass it at all.

At this time, the elimination rate is even higher than breaking through to the Ning Yuan Realm, at least a few hundred to one probability. Therefore, those martial artists who broke through to the Breaking Mystery Realm were actually already one out of 100,000 or even millions of cultivators.

For ordinary small towns, this is the probability that their entire population is combined, and there may not be one in each generation, so those three-star sects, and even four-star sects, the martial artists of the Xuanxuan Realm are the absolute backbone, and even the leading figures.

As for breaking through from the Breaking Mystery Realm to the Unifying Realm, it is already an almost impossible task!

Yunzhou has been an example, in the past hundred years, a total of four powerhouses have been born in the One Realm, which is under the huge base of billions of people. The breakout ratio is already close to 100 million to one.

Of course, Yunzhou is remote, and the martial arts are in ruins. In the major states of the Central Plains, the situation will be much better than Yunzhou, if it is in Shenzhou, the number of martial artists who break through the realms of all layers will surge dozens or hundreds of times, and the life span of martial artists will be greatly extended, continuing from generation to generation, accumulating from generation to generation, and the number of martial artists in each realm is still very large.

But this example also illustrates how difficult it is to break through barriers.

Shen Li has been stuck in the first level of the Breaking Realm in the Heavenly Trial and has not made any progress, although his need for advancement is very huge due to special reasons, but this doesn't mean that he wants to break through to the Unified Realm is actually far away!

This is a real opportunity!

An opportunity for Yanbei to return to Shen Li is also an opportunity for Shen Li to desperately win.

Shen Li repeatedly warned himself! The six-star demon hunter said very clearly, the source of blessing is in me, but the creation lies in you, whether you can grasp it depends on whether you work hard!

However, characters like Yan Beigui were all stuck in this trial, so although Shen Li was in a very urgent mood, he still settled down in this gatehouse honestly and began to study the notes recorded by Yan Beigui in this retreat for seven years.

It seems that the task will not be completed overnight, so it is necessary to be completely prepared.

A month later, Shen Li had made plans for all the things that could be used and the contingencies he could think of, and he respectfully put those scrolls and the relics of the predecessors of the six-star demon hunters on the bookcase.

Either he succeeds, and if he fails, this blessing can only be left to his successors.

Shen Li stepped out of the gatehouse and walked towards the tall gate with confidence.
