Zhuo Yi didn't know how many years he had been walking in the endless plank road, at this moment, his hair and beard were all white, his eyes were deep-set, his eyes were empty, and he looked like an old dragon clock.

At this moment, he is like a walking machine, walking all the way, and he has never been affected by the scene around him.

At this time, the plank road had reached the end of sight, but Zhuo Yi was unmoved: "You want to trick me to stop again!" Play the same old trick! ”

"Zhuoyi, stop!" The starfish power of the mind fluctuated, and a purple star gate slowly emerged, and Xiao Jiu was suspended in mid-air, shouting at Zhuo Yi.

However, Zhuo Yi had already experienced a lot, so he naturally thought that this was another test for Xiao Jiu, so he beckoned to Xiao Jiu and continued to walk forward, muttering in his mouth: "Huh? Lie to me again! ”

Xiao Jiu, as the Nine Spirits Tomb Consciousness Body, naturally knew the content of the level, so she was not surprised at all to look at Zhuo Yi's appearance of having nothing to love but moving forward.

Zhuo Yi was already at the end of the plank road in front of him, but as if he didn't see it, he stepped in place against the air wall, and kept trying to move forward.

"Zhuoyi, the first level is over!" Xiao Jiu's body flashed to Zhuo Yi's side, and continued: "Do you want to go out and rest now, or do you want to continue to break through the remaining two levels?" ”

Zhuo Yi didn't answer Xiao Jiu, he still walked hard, and kept muttering: "I want to be the greatest star, I want to protect the person I want to protect!" ”

"Alas!" Xiao Jiu looked at Zhuo Yi's appearance, sighed, and saw that with a wave of her hand, the plank road continued to extend for hundreds of meters, and at the end of the plank road, there was a small square, and in the very center of the square, a very small sapling stood in the wind.

Zhuo Yi didn't seem to notice all this, he continued to move forward, and finally he came to the square, looking at the little sapling that was gradually growing, and was stunned for a long time.

"It's over?" Zhuo Yi stopped, and the old man's voice came out of his mouth hoarsely.

At this moment, as soon as the environment of the sea of ideas changed, Zhuo Yi found that green and vibrant grass quickly grew on the small square. At this time, it gradually began to rain lightly. And the growing sapling gradually grew taller and stronger, and in Zhuoyi's eyes, it grew into a towering tree.

After the fragrance of flowers, on the giant tree, there were many fruits, just listen to the "plop", one fruit fell from the tree, fell in the grass, exuding a refreshing fragrance.

Zhuo Yi picked up the fruit on the ground, looked at it, smelled it, touched it, and seemed to have some understanding. Xiao Jiu didn't bother Zhuo Yi, the purple star gate behind her opened again, and she disappeared into the sea of thoughts.

Zhuo picked up the fruit as soon as he picked it up, only to hear a "creak", and the fruit was bitten hard by him. Suddenly, the indescribable comfort made Zhuo Yi can't help but let out an "ah".

With the fruit in his abdomen, Zhuoyi's appearance was much younger. However, Zhuo Yi didn't find out, he just felt comfortable. So I took a few more bites.

When the fruit was eaten, the giant tree in front of him also disappeared, and Zhuo Yi noticed that he had changed back to his original body. At this time, he was twelve years old again.

"Is it finally over?" A smile appeared on Zhuo Yi's face, and at the same time, the purple star gate appeared, and Zhuo Yi opened his eyes again, realizing that he was locked in an iron box.

"Bang" The door of the box was opened, Xiao Jiu looked at himself with a smile and said, "Congratulations, you passed the first level!" ”

Zhuo Yi sat up, looking at the iron box where he was lying, a little puzzled. Before he could ask, Xiao Jiu just spoke: "This is the dormant chamber, your mind body has been out of your body for 93 days, in order to prevent your body from dying, I will put him in this dormant chamber." ”

"Dormant chamber?" Zhuo Yi scratched his head and jumped out of the iron box.

"So, next, are you going to continue with the next two levels, or...? You can ask me for one! As if something suddenly came to mind, Xiao Jiu paused.

"According to the will of the Nine Martyrs, every time the holder of the order passes a level, he can make a request to me. Now you've passed the first level, walking alone in the Sea of Thoughts. You can ask me what you need now. Xiao Jiu smiled, making Zhuo Yi in a trance.

Zhuo Yi suddenly remembered all the things on the plank road with Xiao Jiu at this moment, his cheeks suddenly seemed to be on fire, his face was flushed, he glanced at Xiao Jiu's still attractive figure under the ancient costume, and smiled evilly.

After the baptism of the sea of thoughts alone, the current Zhuo Yi can no longer judge him by the standard of 12 years old.

"Huh?" Xiao Jiu looked at Zhuo Yi's appearance and seemed to understand something. As the Nine Spirits Mind Body, how could she not know what was in the first level?

"I'm just mindful!" Xiao Jiulian moved lightly, walked in front of Zhuo Yi, pinched the orchid finger in his hand, and lightly scratched Zhuo Yi's chest, teasing.

Zhuo Yi was so frightened that he quickly took a step back, looked at Xiao Jiu's red-faced appearance, and scolded in his heart: "This first-generation star lord of Jiulie is definitely an unserious person. ”

"Women are like tigers!! It's terrifying! ”

Then he spoke: "Little Ninth Sister." I want exercises, star skills, light skills, and weapons! ”

Xiao Jiu looked at Zhuo Yi's colorless appearance, covered his mouth and laughed "giggle", the sound was like a wind chime on the tower, very beautiful.

"According to the requirements, if you don't pass the three levels, I can't give you any exercises, star skills, light skills, and star weapons. However, considering that you don't know anything, the next two levels may be too difficult for you, and I can provide you with these. Xiao Jiu said, and three books and a spear appeared in front of Zhuo Yi.

Zhuo Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, rubbed his hands excitedly, and thought: This Nine Spirits Tomb is so magical, and the things that are taken out casually are definitely something that can be encountered in the world but cannot be sought.

Then, he couldn't wait to take the book, and was dumbfounded: "Basic shooting? Basic pace? Basic exercises? ”

"And this?" Zhuo Yi shook the spear with a look of disgust: "It's actually a mortal?" ”

"So, what grade do you want?" Xiao Jiu saw Zhuoyi's appearance, which was also expected by her, so she asked teasingly.

"At the very least, give a holy artifact to play with?" Zhuo did not hide the disappointment on his face, and the exit was the lion's mouth.

As soon as Xiao Jiu heard the word "holy weapon", his eyebrows suddenly rose, and he looked angry: "You think the holy weapon is all over the street!" Do you want? Don't pay me back? ”

As soon as he heard Xiao Jiu's words, Zhuo Yina could still stiffen his mouth, quickly held the book and spear in his arms, protected them tightly, and smiled wryly: "Hahaha!" Want! Want! Want! Absolutely! Little Ninth Sister, I'm kidding. How can there be anything that is given to people and then taken back. ”

It's a little worse, but it's better than nothing! It's just enough to make up for Zhuo Yi's current situation of not knowing anything.

Xiao Jiu looked at Zhuo Yi like this, and couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Tough mouth! ”

Then, Xiao Jiu waved his hand, and many long-legged plates quickly moved to Zhuo Yi.

Zhuo Yiyi looked at it, and his eyes lit up instantly: "Wow Ka Ka!" Little Ninth Sister! You're so nice! ”

So unceremoniously, he quickly rolled up his sleeves and devoured it.

It can be said that since entering the Burial God Mountain Range, Zhuo Yi has not eaten serious food. Now that the delicacies are in front of him, how can he resist the temptation on the tip of his tongue?

Looking at Zhuo Yi's appetite, Xiao Jiu showed an envious expression on his face.

"Whoa! Little Ninth Sister! Zhuo Yi broke off a huge piece of chicken leg and handed it to Xiao Jiu.

Looking at the chicken leg handed over by Zhuo Yi, Xiao Jiu was stunned at first, then glanced at Zhuo Yi, and said strangely: "Chengxin makes me angry, doesn't it?" ”

"Huh?" Zhuo Yi looked puzzled.

"Fool! The mind body doesn't have any feelings! Xiao Jiu glanced at Zhuo Yi and sat on the chair he moved.

"Then ......" Zhuo Yi was about to say something, but Xiao Jiu interrupted him.

"Why do you want to say why you are in the sea of thoughts, it feels so real, don't you?" Xiao Jiu pursed his lips and continued, "That's the sensations in your body that are transmitted to your mind body. ”

"A mind-body like me without a body doesn't have six senses."

"Huh?" Zhuo Yi was even more surprised, could it be that when Yinian Hai did that kind of behavior to Xiao Jiu, his own body did the same to her?

"It's like you're dreaming, it feels real, it's what your flesh feels. In fact, it is the effect of some hormone or nerve. Xiao Jiu continued to explain.

"Okay!" Zhuo Yi breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to be labeled as a pervert by her just after he met Xiao Jiu.

"Hormones? Nerve? Zhuo Yi heard two more new terms.

"I'm too lazy to explain to you, you'll understand later." Speaking of the second time, Xiao Jiu looked at Zhuo Yi teasingly: "You are in the sea of thoughts, you can't stand my temptation, in fact, it is a hormone called hormones!" ”

Zhuo Yi was obedient one by one, and was instantly embarrassed: "It's over, it turns out that she knows what I did......"

"Hormon? I didn't see him, huh? At the same time, a puzzled name made Dezhuo Yi couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Jiu didn't answer Zhuo Yi's words, but just gave him a blank look.

Three days later.

In a space in the Tomb of the Nine Martyrs.

"This is the Endless Ladder to the Sky!" At this time, Xiao Jiu pointed to the endless staircase in the starry sky not far away and said.

"Shhh Zhuo Yixin's heart was half cold.

"This is, just experienced the torture of the soul, and the torture of the body! Can all this be passed by people? Zhuo Yi looked up at the staircase where he didn't know where to go, crying and mourning the thin child's face.

"I remember that the first generation of Nine Flame Star Lords said to me: Those who can pass the three levels are no longer human!" Xiao Jiu said, looked at Zhuo Yiyi and smiled, and continued: "So, I doubt that you are a man. ”

"I'm ......" Zhuo Yi blushed for a moment and avoided making eye contact with Xiao Jiu.

"Hahaha!" Xiao Jiu saw that his teasing was effective, and smiled happily.

"Zhuoyi! This second and third level, as I told you the other day, they are interconnected. In other words, if you pass the second level, you will immediately face the third level! But if you fail in any level or link, you will die without a place to bury. Are you sure you're going to take the test now? Wait no longer? Xiao Jiu looked solemn, looking at Zhuo Yi, his eyes were full of concern.

Although Xiao Jiu is just a body of mind, but the past few days of getting along have made her and Zhuo Yi have feelings, and she really doesn't want the little boy in front of her to bury her in front of her two levels.

Xiao Jiu also seemed to realize something, shook his head, and muttered mentally: "What's wrong with me?" How did you start having feelings? Shouldn't I be a ruthless system? ”

However, no one answered her.

In the past few days, Zhuo Yi has realized the danger of the next two levels from Xiao Jiu's mouth. However, he has no intention of giving up, because his dream is: "To become a great star and protect the person I want to protect!" ”

"Little Ninth Sister! I still have a lot of important things to do, there are many people waiting for me to protect, and my life is not waiting! If I die in this endless ladder to heaven, it will be my life! My father told me since I was a child: 'When the ancient star warrior met, even if the other party was the first star hero in the world, even if he knew that he was invincible, he would show his sword! ‘”

"This is the spirit of the bright sword!"

"Even if I die, I will die on the road to chasing my dreams! Even if I know that I will die this time, I still have to step on this endless ladder to the sky! I'd like to see how horrible it is. ”

Zhuo Yi said, already stepping up the stairs.

"Little Ninth Sister! I'm so happy to have such a beautiful girl like you with me these days! Zhuo Yi stepped up the stairs, turned around, and smiled at Xiao Jiu.

"It's a pity that in the sea of thoughts before, it was all an illusion!" Zhuo Yi looked at Xiao Jiu's tall bright moon and spring water in the tulle unscrupulously, smiled bitterly, didn't look back, and walked towards the end of the stairs step by step.

Xiao Jiu was stunned by Zhuo Yi's words, and when he came back to his senses, Zhuo Yi had already walked dozens of steps.

She smiled, shook her head, nodded again, and finally bit her red lip and shouted, "I believe in you!" Zhuoyi! ”

Zhuo Yi walked on the ladder and made a received gesture with his left hand.

Xiao Jiushu's chest rose and fell, and she was very happy: "It turns out! I also have feelings ......."

The endless ladder of climbing is the limit of the human body, and the test is a person's perseverance.

Just a few hundred steps, Zhuo Yi didn't feel anything. But as I climbed more and more steps, the fatigue in my body became more and more obvious, and finally the muscles in my legs even tingled.

"Tick, tick, tick......" At this time, Zhuo Yi's sweat kept falling, and his body voice kept beating his heart.

"One, two......" Every step Zhuo Yi takes is a breakthrough in the limits of his body.

"One Hundred ...... Ah......h

"Huhuhu......" Zhuo Yi stopped on the stairs, looked at the endless ladder, and gasped.

"Your dream is yes?" Zhuo Yi asked himself out loud.

"Become a great star! Protect the people I want to protect! Zhuo replied loudly.

"Again...... One...... Yikes...... Ah......" Takuichi walked another step.

Finally, Zhuo Yi was tired and lay on the stairs, but his eyes were still firmly looking at the end of the stairs.

"Don't give up!" Zhuo Yi cheered himself on, and began to crawl slowly towards the end like a lizard.

I don't know how long I climbed, but at this time, Zhuo Yi's body was close to the stairs, and his face was full of exhaustion.

A hoarse voice came out of his throat: "I...... My dream, my dream is ......"

He was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to speak.

"If only there was a bed." Thinking like this, Zhuo Yi saw that on both sides of the stairs, beds were neatly arranged, and there were endless lines along the stairs, I don't know how many.

"Huh...... Is this going to be me doing it once and for all? Zhuo Yi looked at the bed of his dreams and smiled bitterly.

"A fool would go to bed!" Zhuo Yi knew that it was not that he was too tired, and the hallucinations that appeared, or the temptation set by the examiner.

The goal is nothing more than to make oneself fail.

"Hahaha......" Knowing this, Zhuo Yi turned over, looked up at the starry sky, and laughed.

At this time, the sweat on his clothes had solidified into white marks.

"My dream ......" Zhuo Yi repeated his dream with a voice that only he could hear.

Then, he slowly climbed towards the end of the stairs.

"Can't sleep!" Zhuo Yi lifted his eyelids vigorously to prevent them from falling.

He knew that if his eyelids fell, he would never be able to open them again.

"I still have Han Qian'er...... And the mother...... And Xiaoxiang...... And Xiao Jiu......"

Zhuo Yi's head at the moment was only tired and sleepy......

His eyes were sunken in, and the huge dark circles under his eyes looked like panda's eyes.

At this time, the tiredness was like a demon in the abyss, constantly pulling Zhuoyi's legs, trying to pull him into the darkness from which he could never recover.

Hands trembled, feet trembled, and even clenched teeth trembled...... In short, at this moment, every muscle in Zhuoyi's whole body is trembling......

"I ...... I ...... "He can't even say what he wants to say anymore."

Finally, his body reached its limit, and Zhuo Yi no longer had the strength to raise his eyelids.

"Zhuoyi! There is also a first-order ......" In his mind, Xiao Jiu's hurried voice came.

"First order?" Zhuo Yi opened his eyes again, used all his strength, and slowly moved a step.

"Have you arrived?" Zhuo Yi kept asking in his heart.

"There's also a first order! Come on......"

"There is still a first order, I am desperate, and I have to climb up ......"

"One more level, and you've cleared the ......"

"Quick, last order, the people you want to protect are waiting for you......"

……

Zhuo Yi closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, he didn't know how many steps he had climbed, anyway, he didn't believe Xiao Jiu's words.

"Zhuoyi! Pull yourself together! I won't lie to you this time, last order. ”

"Really?" Zhuo Yi smiled bitterly in his heart.

"It's all the last order. Alas...... Dream...... It's so hard......"

"Really, Zhuo Yi's last order...... You believe me......" Xiao Jiu shouted anxiously.

"Believe you once." Zhuo Yi opened his eyes with difficulty, trying to maintain, he did see that it was really the last step.

On the last step is the familiar square, the little sapling......

"Hahaha...... Hahaha...... "Zhuo Yi used his last strength and finally rolled up the last step. He looked at the small sapling not far away, and completely passed out.

In his mind, there seemed to be Xiao Jiu's cheers.

"Zhuoyi, good job...... Zhuo Yi ......"
