Chapter 48: Deer Demon



Chapter 48: Deer Demon

About half an hour later, Ji Yuenian finally came to the desk and stretched out his wrist.

The translucent figure placed his illusory arm on Ji Yuenian's wrist, took a drop of blood, and said after a while, "Superior bloodline, go to the left."

At the same time, a Cloud Token made of clouds and mist also emerged and landed on Ji Yuenian's palm.

Only after reaching the third level did it become necessary to distinguish identities.

Behind Ji Yuenian was a deer demon, he was looking at Ji Yuenian's back with some doubts in his eyes.

This person seemed to be a human race, but he had the aura of a mountain ghost in his soul. However, no matter which of the two, it was absolutely impossible to be included in the superior bloodline.

The demon spirits were extremely sensitive to the spirit of the mountain ghost in Ji Yuenian's soul, but it was extremely difficult for ordinary humans to detect it, so Lu Changye of the previous Lu family never had any doubts about Ji Yuenian.

Ji Yuenian stepped into the door of light on the left with a single step. Between the space-time transitions, there was an encompassing voice that echoed through the world.

What he saw was an endless stone stair that reached as high as the sky itself. The sloping arc of this stone stair was not too big, about several dozen feet wide, and it spread far and wide towards the distant sky.

The two sides of the stone stairs were surrounded by a golden morning halo. It seemed that there was nothing between heaven and the earth except the boundless sky and the clouds around the stone stairs.

Countless creatures were already climbing the stairs, Ji Yuenian slowly took a step, and landed it on the first stone step.

Behind him, there were constantly wriggling human figures appearing from time to time, leaping towards the top of the stone steps.

Second step.

Ji Yuenian sensed a very shallow pressure, which was directly acting on his soul and was very subtle.

To his astonishment, the profound Qi within his Xuan Sea was circulating a little faster, and this stone step actually had the effect of polishing one's cultivation and consolidating the foundation.

Not climbing up as fast as the rest of the creatures, Ji Yuenian slowly walked towards the top of the stone steps while refining the energy in the Xuan sea.

The third level determined the final number of stone steps climbed, not the speed.

Tenth step.

The pressure on his soul suddenly increased a lot while the energy in his Xuan Sea became more and more consolidated.

After Ji Yuenian stepped into the eleventh step, there were already many ordinary people around him who gradually slowed down, unable to bear the pressure.

Twentieth step.

The energy in his Xuan Sea was filled to the brim, and it seemed that it had reached a bottleneck.

Although Ji Yuenian used the Great Compassion Mantra to refine the Xuan Sea, his cultivation was still only at the beginning of the Xuan Realm. At this time, he was only one step away from the Upper stage of the Xuan Realm under the baptism of the Cloudy Stone Steps.

The thirtieth step.

There were already quite a few mortal teenagers who stopped beside him. These people were out of breath with every step they took, and the cold sweat slick on their foreheads.

"Fellow Daoist, wait."

Ji Yuenian turned his head, and a humanoid monster with antlers caught up with hurried breathing.

The deer demon jumped to the thirtieth stone step, calmed down, and said with a smile, "Dare I ask where this friend come from?"

"The ancient city of Taichu."

Ji Yuenian responded, then turned around and walked towards the stone steps.

The deer demon followed closely behind, and also went up a step, no longer speaking, but thinking secretly in his heart.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">If this person was only a human race powerhouse, then he could never have a superior bloodline, but if he was born from a mountain ghost, he would also not be eligible to be included in the superior bloodline. What determines his bloodline, then?

"I can't walk anymore, I really can't walk anymore, why am I so useless!"

The sound of screaming sounded in his ears, and a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old was half-knelt on the thirty-fifth stone step, looking up at the endless sky-high stone stairs, his eyes full of despair

"How can such a weak consciousness be qualified to embark on the path of cultivation?"

"If you can't walk, get out of here!"

"Get out of the way! What are you howling here for!"

The sound of sneers was incessant, and countless figures walked by the side of the boy, leaving a string of sarcastic words, making his eyes even darker with a thick cloud of despair.

The deer demon followed Ji Yuenian to the thirty-fifth stone step, which happened to be not far from the boy.

"Noisy!"

A surge of demonic energy surged, directly rolling up the boy's body and throwing it into the golden clouds encompassing both sides of the stone stairs.

Ji Yuenian glanced sideways at the deer demon and said, "Is this not a violation of the law?"

The deer demon put his hands back into his large sleeve robes and smiled, "If someone who can't move on wants to leave, he can only jump into the morning halo around the stone steps, I just helped him. If he still has the energy to go up, climbing the Cloud Stone Steps will bring him back again."

Between his words, it was obvious that he understood the rules of the entrance examination very well, so he was being concerned after seeing Ji Yuenian being judged as a superior bloodline.

Although the superior bloodlines were almost always related to spirits, they were extremely rare, and each wielder was worthy of the resources of the Luoxia Mountains to cultivate them properly and personally.

The fortieth step!

After arriving here, more than 50% of the creatures participating in the assessment had been screened. These eliminated people were almost all ordinary people who came to try their luck. If one couldn't climb the one hundred and twenty steps on the stairs, one couldn't pass the entrance examination at all.

The Xuan energy around Ji Yuenian's body was surging more and more violently while his azure robe fluttered without wind along with his long black hair.

Realizing that the stone steps here were no longer able to help him polish his cultivation, Ji Yuenian raised his head and looked up, no longer walking so slowly, but just quickened his pace.

Forty-fifth step!

Fiftieth step!

The sixtieth step!

Seventieth step!

After walking through dozens of stone steps in a row, Ji Yuenian slowed down again, and the densely packed figures around him had already decreased by half, and the incomparably wide stone steps had also become sparse.

The deer demon stepped on the seventieth stone steps, looked at the energy surging around Ji Yuenian, and murmured, "Is he going to break through? I didn't realize that this person had actually cultivated up to the initial stage of the Xuan realm."

This climbing Cloud Stone Steps was used by ordinary disciples in the Taiyu Saint Sect to polish their cultivation. Only those who had refined their Xuan Sea could perceive the improvement of their cultivation. There was only the effect of the assessment, and it was impossible to consolidate the profound depths of the Xuan Sea.

The eightieth step!

Ji Yuenian was surrounded by azure brilliance, and an incomparably vast phantom of the Xuan Sea appeared from the center of his eyebrows. The Xuan energy surged, actually directly breaking the bottleneck of the initial stage of the Xuan Realm.

At the same time, the profound energy in the deep sea of the Shengong cave circulated more smoothly, causing subtle profound energy to dance along with his single move.

This climbing cloud stone stair was really a treasure of the sect!

The momentum around Ji Yuenian rose up, and his azure robe swayed as he directly walked to the top of the stone steps!

90th step!

100th step!

119th step!

Hundreds of people had stayed on this layer of stone steps, all of them were constantly trying to step into the one hundred and twentieth stone step, but most of them were slowly pushed back by an invisible force.

Once one had passed the 120th step, he would be considered to have passed the entrance examination to a certain extent, and could be ranked as a normal disciple in the Luoxia Mountains!
