Chapter 1299: Chapter 1299, Wen Xin?
Translator: 549690339
This… senior, I didn’t do it on purpose… w.a.n.g Baole felt a little guilty. He thought that perhaps he had been too happy previously, which was why he had walked a little faster, causing the bridge to collapse.
At the same time, he felt depressed. He had never expected that the second bridge would be so weak..
In reality, it wasn’t that the second bridge wasn’t strong. In the end, it was because w.a.n.g Baole’s current combat strength had long surpa.s.sed that of the fourth step. Therefore… the rejection of the second bridge naturally caused his body and mind to instinctively suppress it, this formed a confrontation.
It was as if he was fighting against w.a.n.g Baole, and now… he had been defeated.
“Continue walking!”Father w.a.n.g sighed and waved his hand. Immediately, the collapsed second bridge turned into countless fragments. It was as if time had reversed, and they flew in from all directions. They were pieced together rapidly, and in that instant.., they were restored to their original state!
!!
From Afar, the second bridge in the sky was still magnificent and majestic.
No matter how one looked at it with the naked eye, it did not seem to be any different from before it collapsed. However, if one were to take a closer look, one could still sense that the aura of the restored second bridge seemed to have weakened slightly.
w.a.n.g Baole could sense that the regenerated second bridge did not reject him as much as before. It was as if it had been subdued. It suppressed its own strength and allowed w.a.n.g Baole to stand on it.
This time, w.a.n.g Baole was much gentler. He lifted his feet gently and walked carefully to the end of the second bridge. Seeing that the bridge did not collapse again, w.a.n.g Baole heaved a sigh of relief, he looked at the even more majestic third bridge in the distance and was about to step down from the second bridge.
However, at that moment..
w.a.n.g Baole’s body suddenly trembled. A thought suddenly appeared in the depths of his heart and rapidly magnified.
The thought came from what he was looking at. In the distance, there were more and more astonis.h.i.+ng sky-treading bridges. Whether it was the third, fourth, eighth, ninth, and finally the eleventh bridge, the bridges seemed to at that moment.., they became illusory, and they became farther and farther away. As w.a.n.g Baole looked on, he seemed to become infinitely small, and the distance between him and the bridges seemed to be infinitely magnified.
It was as if the bridges were giant mountains that could not be climbed, and he was too far away from the bridges. He could not control his mind, and the thought of stopping appeared in his mind.
The thought was magnified to the extreme, and it turned into a strong impulse that spread throughout his body. It was as if when a person did not want to do something, he would automatically find countless reasons for himself, that was what happened to w.a.n.g Baole.
It was as if countless voices were exploding in his mind. They were telling him to stop moving forward, to leave this place, to give up on the path to heaven, and to stop there.
At that moment, w.a.n.g Baole stood at the end of the second bridge. He could have stepped down, but he stood there, unmoving. There seemed to be an invisible barrier blocking his path, making it difficult for him to take that step.
Under the first bridge, Father w.a.n.g looked over. Beside him, w.a.n.g Yiyi also had a worried look on her face. Countless figures on the immortal dipper continent had seen what was happening.
“Wen Xin…”father w.a.n.g said softly. He knew very well that this was the test of stepping on the Heavenly Bridge. It was also the reason why he had reminded w.a.n.g Baole to perfect his dao heart.
He knew that if he couldn’t pa.s.s this test… then no matter how high his cultivation was or how strong his combat ability was, he wouldn’t be able to cross the Heavenly Bridge.
Time pa.s.sed slowly. After a long while, w.a.n.g Baole, who was standing at the end of the second bridge, slowly raised his head. He looked at the third and eleventh bridges in the distance, then lowered his head to look at his feet. Suddenly, he smiled.
“My heart is free and unfettered. Why do you need to ask?”As he spoke, he lifted his right foot and stepped out of the second bridge, crossing the second bridge. He walked toward the third bridge in the distance, step by step.
As he took his first step, ripples appeared around him. As he took his second step, the ripples grew larger and larger like ripples. When he took his third and fourth steps, the third bridge in the distance became blurry.
It was as if the world he was in had become illusory at that moment. However, w.a.n.g Baole didn’t stop. He closed his eyes and continued taking the fifth step, the sixth step, the seventh step..
His surroundings became more and more blurry. When he took the eighth step, everything disappeared and turned into endless nothingness. There wasn’t even the slightest sound. It was as if a pause had been pressed. Amidst the silence, w.a.n.g Baole took the ninth step.
The moment he took that step, it was as if he had pa.s.sed through a layer of separation. He had walked through a period of time, stepping from one world to another. The pause that had been pressed was suddenly activated. Countless sounds came from all directions in an instant, they came from all directions.
w.a.n.g Baole stopped in his tracks. He heard the buzzing sound, the whistling sound, the sound of the rain, and the clamor around him. Countless sounds scrambled to appear in w.a.n.g Baole’s mind, he quickly drew up a picture.
Other than the sound, a large amount of light gathered on his eyelids. It grew brighter and brighter, as if a dazzling scene had appeared outside his eyelids.
At the same time, the fragrance of meat entered his nose. He was familiar with it, and he could also smell the fragrance of the ice spirit water.
All of this was extremely familiar to w.a.n.g Baole. He even remembered it. Even though he hadn’t opened his eyes, he could feel that this was… the scene from his memories of the cruiser heading to Ethereal Dao College.
At the same time, w.a.n.g Baole also understood the cause and effect of the third bridge. The third bridge tested one’s Dao Heart. In theory, it was to turn one’s memories into a mental demon. If one’s Dao Heart was firm, one would be able to walk all the way.., even if one’s entire life appeared in his mind, he would remain unperturbed. Then, he would definitely be able to walk on the third bridge.
Once he opened his eyes, his emotions would stir. It was obvious that the possibility of walking on the third bridge would decrease. “What era is this? The mental demons are outdated…”in what should have been a heartwarming scene, w.a.n.g Baole sighed and muttered.
“Furthermore, this kind of test might be useful to cultivators who haven’t reached the fourth step, but to me… it’s useless.”w.a.n.g Baole was slightly disappointed. He shook his head and was about to ignore everything and continue walking forward, however, just as he was about to raise his feet, an idea suddenly occurred to w.a.n.g Baole.
Since this bridge can bring up memories similar to the heavenly fate book and the deity statue I met back then, then… Should I borrow it as well? w.a.n.g Baole was tempted at the thought, after some thought, while father w.a.n.g, w.a.n.g Yiyi, and the people from the immortal dipper continent were still in a daze, w.a.n.g Baole actually… took a step back.
He retreated nine steps in an instant, and then… he took another nine steps forward.
w.a.n.g Baole didn’t seem satisfied. He did the same thing over and over again. He retreated and moved forward multiple times. The scenes that he experienced kept changing. The past few lives in the stone stele world appeared one after another. He even saw things that happened even further back in time, he saw the battle between the Immortals and the ancients. He saw the scene of the black wood descending. He even saw the scene of the black wood nails falling and piercing into the true origin s.p.a.ce Dao.
However, w.a.n.g Baole wasn’t satisfied.
He wanted to see more. He wanted to see his true form. He wanted to see deeper memories!
w.a.n.g Yiyi’s expression was strange, and his father looked helpless. The spectators on the immortal dipper continent were all stunned. Suddenly, w.a.n.g Baole stopped in his tracks. A smile appeared on his face.
“It’s done.”
As he spoke, w.a.n.g Baole’s eyes snapped open. What he saw was no longer the cruiser from Ethereal Dao College. It was… a vast universe!
This place didn’t look like the center of the universe, but more like the end of the universe. That was because… there was a huge hole in the distance!
If the universe was likened to a ball, with the celestial dipper continent, the emperor, and the boundless starry skies within, then what the hole led to was… Beyond the universe!
