Chapter 55 - The Truth
Just the aura alone was enough to suffocate them.
If they went in, wouldn"t they be crushed?
Some of the disciples wanted to retreat, but when they thought about how no one had been able to enter the third floor for thousands of years, they held back their thoughts.
...
In front of the stone tablet.
The old monsters all felt a strong aura.
However, they didn"t know where this aura came from.
"What"s going on!"
Countless spiritual senses swept over, but no one"s spiritual sense could enter the trial tower. Some weaker cultivators were treated as having their spiritual senses injured.
"It"s changed!"
"Quick, look at the ranking of the stone tablet!"
When everyone heard the voice, they looked over and found that Lin Jian, who was originally ranked first on the stone tablet, had been pushed down. It had become Xuan Yi"s name!
The crowd gasped in shock. Even Lin Jian"s breathing become much heavier.
The first place that had dominated the list for years had been replaced!
Countless people looked at Lin Jian. This was because he had just said that Xuan Yi did not have the ability to cheat in the trial tower.
If what he had said was true, then didn"t that mean that Xuan Yi had used his strength to push him down!
The first place on the stone tablet, not to mention the southern region, was not a small achievement even in the entire continent!
At this moment, Lin Jian"s limelight was stolen away. He looked as if like a deflated rubber ball. He stood rooted to the ground, unable to speak for a long time.
Following that, a wave of hostility rose in his heart, hostility towards Xuan Yi.
There was only one way for him to regain his stolen limelight, and that was to defeat Xuan Yi!
At this moment, a few disciples walked out of the trial tower.
These disciples were asked by Xuan Yi to protect Bai Weiwei. However, after the third floor opened, the entire trial tower shook non-stop. They were worried that something might happen, so they brought Bai Weiwei out of the trial tower.
And the trial tower was the only transit point in the entire saint"s mystic realm that connected to the outside world.
After entering the trial tower and coming out, they would be outside the mystic realm.
"Those are the disciples from the Xuan Sword sect!"
After Li Changqing discovered them, he stepped out of the formation ripples. In the next moment, a black hole appeared beside these disciples. A pair of hands reached out from the black hole and grabbed them all in.
When they reacted, they were all stunned on the spot.
They were surrounded by experts with terrifying auras. Of course, this was not the main reason why they were frozen on the spot.
This was because the gazes of these experts were locked onto them. It was as if they were chained to the spot, unable to move.
"Let me ask you, how did the disciples of the Xuan Sword sect move so quickly on the second floor?" The mixed-blood qilin under w.a.n.g Ye roared, scaring the few of them so much that they trembled. Let alone the experts of the different sects, they could not even defeat the pets of these experts.
And if it was the ancient divine beast qilin, just a drop of blood could easily make the sage submit.
The few disciples looked at Qing Xuzi as if they had grabbed onto a life-saving straw. They kept begging with their eyes. At this moment, they had no idea what had happened and why these experts were targeting them.
Qing Xuzi"s face darkened. He had wanted to help, but under the gazes of so many experts, it was hard him to protect them at all. He could only say, "Tell us what happened inside."
w.a.n.g Ye added, "If you dare to lie, I"ll feed you all to the beasts!"
The few disciples were so scared that they couldn"t speak.
At this time, Bai Weiwei stood up and told them what had happened inside, but she didn"t mention about their speed.
"I"m asking you, why are you all improving so fast!"
A disciple stood up and said with a trembling voice, "It was Elder Xuan who taught us."
The moment these words were said, the entire place was in an uproar.
"Hmph! As expected!"
"Sect Master Qing, what else do you have to say!"
Qing Xuzi"s face alternated between red and white. It was confirmed that they were cheating. Not only was Xuan Yi"s safety at stake, even the entire Xuan Sword sect would be criticized.
"B*stards, how did Xuan Yi teach you all!" Qing Xuzi had no way to defend himself, so he had to choose the dumbest way, to stall!
If nothing could be think of, then stalled until something was being popped out.
Lin Jian was also very puzzled. Since the disciples of the Xuan Sword sect had admitted to cheating, but he could not think of a way to cheat, "How did your Elder Xuan teach you?"
The disciple lowered his head, "He told us to disperse our cultivation, saying that the second floor was not only willpower, but also determination and courage."
The experts were stunned.
Disperse their cultivation!?
What did the cultivators spend their whole lives for? The answer was cultivation.
It could be said that cultivation was as important as the lives of the cultivators.
"And you all followed his words?"
"Yes, then we moved very quickly as we were on the second floor of the trial tower. We could obviously feel the improvement of our physical bodies. Our bodies were a lot more solid."
The scene went silent.
It was already very terrifying to lose their cultivation, but Xuan Yi actually told all the disciples to lose their cultivation!
What was even more unacceptable was that they actually listened and did it!
Suddenly, an elder from the Myraid Beast sect asked, "Then why do your cultivation still exist?"
The disciple explained, "Elder Xuan originally said that when we reached the end of the second floor, our cultivation would automatically recover. But in order to send senior sister Bai Weiwei out, we didn"t go to the second floor. When we returned to the first floor, our cultivation returned."
He thought for a moment and said, "I think that Elder Xuan was worried about us retreating, so he told us that as long as we reached the end, our cultivation would recover. In fact, we can also recover if we leave."
Speaking of this, he felt more and more that Elder Xuan was well-intentioned, was there any master in the world who was so considerate of his disciples?
These words came out of his mouth calmly, but in the ears of this group of experts, it was as shocking as a raging wave!
In other words, it was very likely that Xuan Yi did not cheat, but indeed mastered the real rules, and used them to create a scene where all the members of the Xuan Sword sect rose rapidly!
The entire place was in an uproar.
He actually did not cheat!
Lin Jian also came to a realization at this moment. He finally understood why he had not unlocked the third floor after entering the trial tower so many times. It turned out that he had been using the stupidest method, but in reality, it was not the case.
Did that mean that Xuan Yi had already opened the third floor!
Lin Jian"s breathing became short.
He no longer cared whether Xuan Yi had cheated or not. What he cared about was the treasure on the third floor!
"That being said, Xuan Yi did not cheat!?"
Qing Xuzi was flushed red, "Hmph! My disciples can never do such a despicable thing! Everyone please, don"t throw dirty water on our Xuan Sword sect!"
"But, Xua Yi has killed the disciples from the Myraid Beast sect and Tianzhen sect, how are you going to deal with this matter?"
"How are we going to deal with this matter? We"re not going to deal with it! Everyone, don"t forget that it was those two sects who first held my disciples hostage! And Xuanyi, only wanted to help the disciples. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Hmph! Right now, only your disciples of the Xuan Sword sect are still alive. It"s hard to say what things are like!"
The atmosphere was heated. Suddenly, Lin Jian"s words drew everyone"s attention back.
"Everyone, I think now is not the time to argue about this. Xuan Yi has entered the third floor."
Although everyone did not know what exactly was on the third floor, it was undeniable that there were extremely holy treasures.
Imperial cla.s.s inheritance!
It was also possible to exist!
