Upon entering the Second Hall, Guan Yue quickly reached out to stop everyone from proceeding, as it turned out to be an illusionary array.
Before them lay a scene shrouded in mist, filled with trees, flowers, and animals. However, there was a swamp in the middle, where several gigantic divine beasts were moving about.
Guan Yue pulled Jin Xi over to show her the situation ahead. After taking a look, Jin Xi also sensed that something was amiss. She knew that those divine beasts would not be so close to each other; they each had their own territory and would never coexist in such proximity.
Guan Yue was certain this was an illusionary array. He spent another half an hour finding the true path. However, this passage was astonishingly dangerous.
Thus, he decided to traverse it himself from start to finish.
As expected, this was a perilous illusionary array. Not only did people need to navigate narrow paths, but if they were not careful, they could easily fall into the swamp. They also had to pass through the mouth of the Giant Divine Beast and navigate through its insides to proceed. Moreover, that Giant Divine Beast was alive; finding its mouth and entering required considerable courage.
At the same time, the path was extremely narrow. A moment's inattention could lead one straight into the swamp, which was filled with toxins. With Guan Yue's careful assistance, the women passed through the swamp in fear and trepidation.
Although each of them was a hero commanding great power, they still felt fear in the presence of the hideous Giant Divine Beast. Only Jin Xi remained unafraid and walked straight through. Her movements were the swiftest!
Upon exiting the belly of the divine beast, they immediately saw many sparkling beads above them, colorful and beautiful. The girls instantly perked up and began to compete for them.
Everyone believed these were rewards for passing this challenge.
Inside the Third Hall was essentially a trap for soldiers. It was filled with iron spikes and crossbows; as soon as one stepped onto solid ground, both would activate—the spikes would rise while the crossbows would fire. Even worse, once the spikes were removed, they would automatically regenerate. Those who were strong might force their way through, but weaker individuals would find it impossible to pass without revealing their true forms!
Among them, Jin Xi, Wuma Xiangwei, Ouyang Shaohua, and Lan Xuelei managed to pass without issue, but Huangfu Jiarenyin and Gao Yuxin could not get through.
In the end, Guan Yue had no choice but to use a corrosive method to forcefully erode the spikes and crossbows before allowing Huangfu Jiarenyin and Gao Yuxin to pass quickly.
Once they all made it through, the corroded spikes and crossbows restored themselves completely.
As they exited the Third Hall, they saw many Pearls, which they collected without hesitation. Girls always liked Pearls.
They wandered through the building for a long time before finally arriving at the edge of a river, across which stood a Grass Hall. A faint golden light flickered inside. The surrounding space was locked down, and everyone's abilities were greatly restricted; flying was completely impossible, and even jumping was severely limited. This environment made everyone feel uneasy. There was definitely something sinister here.
The river water was very clear, seemingly easy to cross. However, everyone was cautious and did not dare to enter the water easily.
Seeing this situation, Guan Yue tried using the Sky Peak Tower again, but in the Dragon Abyss Nine Hells, the Sky Peak Tower simply could not be used! None of the artifacts could be activated. This left Guan Yue feeling frustrated.
The reason everyone was hesitant to act, even Jin Xi had a serious expression, was because a strong stench floated in the river!
Huangfu Jiayin threw a stone into the river, and there was no reaction. Everyone felt relieved. But when Jin Xi tossed a small bug in, it immediately disappeared.
Vanished without a trace!
Everyone was shocked! Bone Dissolution Liquid? Could it be that this river is filled with Bone Dissolution Liquid?
Strangely enough, the oppressive feeling here was increasing; they noticed that the strange ceiling above them was descending!
Indeed, that peculiar ceiling was lowering, leaving them little time. If they couldn't figure out a solution soon, it would come crashing down on them.
Gao Yuxin gently speculated, "Guan Yue, could this be a test of Divine Sense?"
"Why do you say that?" Guan Yue asked curiously why Gao Yuxin thought this place tested Divine Sense.
Gao Yuxin analyzed seriously: "It looks like a dead end here, but there must be a way to break through. It's just that the method is difficult to discover at first; I think only by using Divine Sense can we find it. Any attack here is ineffective; only Divine Sense Ability can work."
Before Gao Yuxin finished speaking, Guan Yue began to scan the surroundings with his powerful Divine Sense. Ouyang Shaohua, Lan Xuelei, and Jin Xi also started scanning their surroundings. They all agreed that Gao Yuxin's reasoning made sense!
Indeed, Ouyang Shaohua discovered an invisible small step in the middle of the river.
Guan Yue found two corresponding steps on both banks of the river!
Lan Xuelei noticed three prominent grips on the ceiling above.
After discussing, everyone quickly realized that this challenge tested speed and accuracy!
It involved jumping from the steps by the river, grabbing the grips on the ceiling, jumping to the small step in the middle of the river, then jumping up to grab the grips again, and finally jumping to the opposite bank!
Guan Yue looked at it and felt he could barely manage, but it would be very difficult for the ladies! Even Iron Roar felt helpless after understanding the requirements.
Why was Guan Yue performing stronger than Iron Roar at this moment? This was due to the setting of this space. The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the restrictions imposed. Especially for Iron Roar, whose abilities could only be exerted at about twenty percent.
Guan Yue, currently at the Mysterious Heaven Realm and not yet at its peak, faced much fewer restrictions. His actual capabilities were quite strong, so it was natural for him to outperform Iron Roar.
At this moment, Guan Yue decided to make a round trip himself first. Then he let Huangfu Jiayin lie on his back and carried her across.
After that, he returned to carry Gao Yuxin and jumped over.
By this time, the ceiling had descended significantly. However, this was beneficial for their passage because they only needed to jump a little over ten meters to reach the grips on the ceiling. Thus, Ouyang Shaohua, Lan Xuelei, and Jin Xi all managed to cross one after another.
Finally, Guan Yue carried Iron Roar across. At this point, Guan Yue was completely exhausted!
This was a feeling he hadn't experienced in a long time; he had consumed so much energy just to carry three people across the river. This showed how terrifying the suppression here was!
But as they all stepped onto the opposite bank of the river, the ceiling immediately returned to its original height.
However, they were now completely unable to move.
That shabby Grass Hall unexpectedly emitted a magical light that rendered them all immobile!
The women turned their gazes toward Huangfu Jiayin and Gao Yuxin, hoping they could find the reason. Only Guan Yue and Iron Roar continued to think alone.
Surely, they wouldn't just remain stuck here, right? There should be a reward for this!
After pondering for a while, Huangfu Jiayin said, "It might be that we spent too much time crossing the river earlier, and now the difficulty has increased. This is a test of an additional challenge. I don't know what is the hardest part of cultivation, but it should be testing our most difficult abilities."
Upon hearing her words, everyone immediately agreed. It must be so; otherwise, it wouldn't make sense.
But what is the most difficult aspect of cultivation? Everyone had their own beliefs! Thus, each person began to exert their strengths and observe their surroundings.
Cultivation has many forms, but speed is unbreakable.
However, Guan Yue had a different insight: the most challenging aspect of cultivation is the balance of yin and yang!
So while everyone was deep in thought, he activated the Desolate Yin-Yang Scripture and simultaneously used his Invisible Wings, suddenly soaring toward Grass Hall at high speed!
In an instant, Guan Yue reached the side of Grass Hall, and unexpectedly, the sky above ignited in flames. The only place without fire was where Guan Yue stood!
This was bad; those ladies couldn't withstand the scorching flames!
Guan Yue quickly returned. The flames immediately ceased.
Everyone was still in shock and curiously looked at Guan Yue. Had he found the most difficult aspect of cultivation? But why did flames appear?
The most confused one now is Guan Yue. His Consciousness realizes that here, only one person can win, and everyone else must disappear! This made him very embarrassed. what to do? what to do? Gao Yuxin also knows the reason. She walked quickly to Guan Yue, and then discussed with him: "I want you to try this. When you teleport over, take one with you each time and put him into the Sky Peak Tower . It should be feasible. The landing point and starting point are limited to one person. We can only try it. Then you pick me up and load it into Sky Peak Tower." Guan Yue was shocked. He was not sure what the result would be. He wanted to try it! He could not agree to risk life and death. Only he can move now. So he launched Divine Sense and looked for creatures. But there was no sign of life as far as he could reach. Gao Yuxin advised him: "Come on, don't hesitate. Believe me, there is nothing wrong. I will be the first one. There will be no problem." Guan Yue's tears came out, and he looked at Gao Yuxin , I always thought she was heartless and incapable of understanding feelings. Now he knows that Gao Yuxin has always buried her feelings deep in her heart. She loves everyone deeply, so she takes risks for everyone. Guan Yue also believes in her inference, but without experimenting, I always have no idea. If an accident occurs, I will regret it! Everyone looked at the two of them strangely, wondering what they were discussing. Guan Yue also doesn’t want them all to be shocked. So he finally decided to give Gao Yuxin a try. If it didn't work, he was willing to die first! This time, Guan Yue was fully prepared, and then meditated on the whole process several times, and how to deal with accidents. Don't hurt Gao Yuxin! After making all preparations, he and Gao Yuxin counted together: one, two, three.
