Chapter 1138 Cheating to Deceive the Ladder
The eighty-one steps of the ladder went straight up into the sky. More than 100,000 people stepped onto the ladder at the same time, but there was no crowding at all. This made people sigh that each step of the Qingyun ladder was too wide.
Standing below, looking around, the crowd was the densest on the first level of the nine-step ladder. Of course, those who ran in the front were almost all body cultivators with higher realms and immortal cultivators who had reached the Mahayana stage.
There were also some cultivators with equally strong immortal cultivation aura and blood aura. Their speed was the fastest, and they were extremely eye-catching among the test crowd.
These people, like Wu Yan, were all practicing the path of the Dharma body, and their realms in body cultivation and immortal cultivation were very strong. It was reasonable for them to run in the front.
Fortunately, due to the restrictions of the rules, there were no body cultivators who had reached the divine body realm or immortal cultivators who had reached the virtual immortal stage.
The few people running in the front were almost all geniuses who had reached the peak of the late Mahayana stage and the peak of the ninth level of the Yuanti realm. The cultivators below who had not made any moves could not help but focus their eyes on those people.
If nothing unexpected happened, these cultivators would be the top group even in the Immortal Spirit Secret Realm. They have obviously become the most feared competitors of the geniuses who want to make a difference in the Immortal Spirit Secret Realm.
Those people looked very young. They should be geniuses on the Galaxy Genius List or saints from the Great Thousand God Realm. Wu Yan recognized one of them.
The man was wrapped in a scarlet windbreaker, leading the way, walking in front of everyone, and became the most eye-catching person at present. He was the person who was very dazzling in the crowd before, the second genius on the Galaxy Genius List, and the son of the Heavenly Demon God from the Heavenly Demon God Realm, Dugu Shouque.
It can be seen that Dugu Shouque's self-confidence is simply unmatched. He seems to have no regard for anyone else. Perhaps, in his eyes, apart from the sons of gods from other great thousand worlds or people from special places, there was no one worthy of his attention.
These mediocre people from other places in the Earthly Immortal Continent were obviously not enough to pose a threat to him, so he had no interest in observing them, and became the first to climb the ladder and start the test.
Moreover, while others were still struggling to pass the first level, he had already stepped onto the 19th step and started the third level of the test!
Such a terrible speed of passing the level is the top existence among all the people who are currently taking the test, and his speed is simply horrifying. All the others were left far behind.
Dugu Shouque, who had already stepped onto the 19th step, just glanced down with disdain, and then never looked anywhere else, unfolding his long-suppressed strength, and rushed up the stairs in the sky one after another.
…
The first blood test is obviously a bit difficult for those cultivators in the Refining Void Stage and the sixth and seventh level body cultivators to pass.
Some cultivators in the late Refining Void Stage even lost their strength when they stepped on the third level of the first level, and were eventually directly transferred to the tenth level to start the second level test.
Of course, these cultivators who were directly transferred to the second level naturally failed the first level test.
However, there are also some cultivators in the late Refining Void Stage with special means who can easily pass the first level of the ninth level test and directly reach the tenth level.
This scene was seen by those who were still watching, and it immediately attracted their attention. After all, if there is no accident or special blood inheritance, cultivators in the Refining Void Stage have no chance of passing the first level test.
Those cultivators in the late Refining Void Stage who don’t look so outstanding and dazzling can easily pass the test. There must be some unknown dirty tricks.
Everyone looked at the few Void Refining cultivators who had already reached the tenth step, and then looked at Jin Yangzi. However, they were disappointed. Although they knew that there was a suspicion of cheating, Jin Yangzi seemed not to be surprised at all and simply ignored it.
Wu Yan frowned slightly and looked at one of the late Void Refining cultivators who had already reached the tenth step. His expression was obviously a little gloomy.
The person he was paying attention to was Gui Huazi from Guiyun Valley.
Obviously, Gui Huazi should rely on the relationship of his uncle Sun Huatang to take advantage of the opportunity of this Tianti test to directly enter the Dengtian Gate and become a disciple of the Dengtian Gate.
At this moment, Wu Yan thought of something deeper in his heart.
A mere late Void Refining cultivator can join the Dengtian Gate with this relationship. Doesn't that mean that every Tianti test will have this outrageous backdoor phenomenon?
Isn't the power relationship between the members and disciples of Dengtianmen extremely complicated? Wu Yan's face became a little uncertain. It seems that if he really wants to move around in the Earthly Immortal Continent in the future, he must pay special attention to this.
Wu Yan's eyes turned to Gui Huazi again. He was very curious about what means Gui Huazi used to deceive the rules of the Heavenly Ladder and pass nine levels to become a disciple of Dengtianmen.
Wu Yan had seen the means of passing the first level. It was caused by a group of crystal stones emitting blood light on Gui Huazi's chest. The thumb-sized crystal stone seemed to be absorbed into the blood vessels in Gui Huazi's body.
Wu Yan had noticed before that the blood-colored crystal stone was like a beating heart. Every time it beat, it would flash with blood, making it look particularly strange. The power of blood in Guihuazi's body will also continue to increase minute by minute after the crystal beats.
The crystal jumped nine times in total, each time allowing Gui Huazi to move up a level just right.
He almost passed the first level nine assessment in less than two quarters of an hour. When he stepped onto the tenth step of the ladder, the surprised, happy and proud expression on his face made him look like a clown.
Especially when he looked down and saw Wu Xiaohu and others, who had not yet taken action and seemed to be hesitating whether to go up or not, the pride on his face became even greater.
"Barbarian aborigines are just aborigines, and they can't stand on the stage. Hey, what about the eighth level of Yuan Ti? Isn't it still incomparable with a genius with outstanding talents like me?"
Gui Huazi did not feel ashamed, but instead curled her lips downward in pride, with a look of disdain on her face. He immediately put away the blood-colored crystal that he had inhaled into his chest, and then with a shudder of his body, he collected his breath and hid all his true energy.
Then, his body uncontrollably flew directly into the air towards the second level of the second level. This is the second level of spiritual root qualification assessment. The better the spiritual root qualification, the faster you will pass.
When Dugu Shouqi passed this level before, he barely needed ten breaths to pass it. Obviously, his spiritual root has surpassed the heavenly spiritual root, which is why he can pass the test at such a speed.
Naturally, it is impossible for others to have his heaven-defying qualifications. However, some monks with heavenly spiritual roots, earthly spiritual roots, and some alien spiritual roots are not too slow. One after another, people with good qualifications have passed. In the second level, sprint towards the third level.
…
As more and more people stepped onto the Qingyun Ladder and began the assessment, fewer and fewer people were still watching below.
Time passed half a stick of incense without realizing it, and the hundreds of thousands of people who rushed up the Qingyun Ladder gradually distanced themselves. The one who rushes the fastest has already reached the fourth level, while the one who rushes slowly is still lingering at the bottom of the first level.
The first level of assessment is nothing at all to most monks who have reached the Mahayana stage or the eighth or ninth level of Yuan Ti. Especially the body refiners at the eighth or ninth level of the Yuan Ti. They can even pass this first level much faster than those cultivators at the peak of the late Mahayana.
However, at the second level, the body refiner's advantage in this area was immediately gone.
The second level examines the spiritual roots and bones of the monks. For immortal cultivators, the better their spiritual root qualifications, the faster they can pass. And for body refiners, the better their bloodline and bones, the faster they can pass.
No one knows why there is such a strange rule, and it is impossible for anyone to pursue it. Over the past thousands of years, there have indeed been some people who love to question the truth, but to no avail, and have even been ridiculed by almost everyone.
This Qingyun Ladder is something left by the ancestors from the ancient times. If you dare to question the ancient ancestors, isn't it just questioning the laws of heaven in this world? This is too overestimating one's abilities.
At this time, Wu Yan, who had been observing for a long time, almost understood the specific rules of the ladder assessment.
Through observation, Wu Yan discovered that when a ninth-level Yuan Ti body refiner steps onto the first level, the special power on the cyan light bridge can immediately distinguish and sense the attributes of his bloodline based on the physical power displayed in his body. For specific strength, send it directly to the second level.
On the second level, a similar scene will also appear. Therefore, a monk at the ninth level of the Yuan Ti can be sent directly up from the first level to the ninth level almost effortlessly.
However, after reaching the ninth level, if the bloodline strength reaches the requirements of the ninth level, it will be considered as passing the test, and then it will be sent directly to the tenth level to start the second level assessment.
Although those immortal cultivators who have made no achievements in the body refining technique are not as easy as the body refining warriors when passing the first level, it is not too difficult in the first few levels of the first level.
After all, even immortal cultivators have been subtly tempering their physical blood during the process of cultivation. Otherwise, if the physical blood is not tough enough, how can it withstand the powerful true energy flowing in the body?
It's just that immortal cultivators generally don't deliberately temper their bodies, so the strength of their bloodline is naturally much worse than that of body refiners.
Generally, the strength of the bloodline of a cultivator in the Mahayana stage is enough to directly send him to the sixth level of the ladder. If he goes up, he needs to use his own true energy to forcibly increase the strength of the bloodline, and then stimulate the people of that corresponding level. Ladder, send it to a higher level.
From the looks of it, there should be no vicious competition or other sabotage in the ladder assessment.
After all, even Jin Yangzi, who is responsible for presiding over the ladder assessment, is just watching everything on the ladder from outside the blue light, and has always intervened in the people who passed the ladder.
The performance rankings of the monks who are passing the test have been displayed on the two sky pillars. The east side is the ranking of immortal cultivators, and the west side is the ranking of body refiners.
The most amazing thing is that those Dharma body practitioners are actually ranked on both heavenly pillars.
