"Hmm?!"
After Xia Ping passed through the God's Barrier, he immediately found himself at the foot of a huge mountain. The mountain was blood-black, and it emitted the aura of war, death, massacre, and blood. It was like an ominous mountain, as if it had been corroded by blood, and there seemed to be countless vengeful spirits entangled in its depths.
The entire mountain seemed to be one, as if it was a special treasure in itself. There were dense divine runes engraved on it, and it emitted a heart-palpitating aura.
Just by standing there, one could feel how small one was, like an ant seeing a divine dragon. No living being could act rashly in this place.
"Is this the true face of the Sound Pattern Mountain? Is it really a mountain? "
Xia Ping's pupils contracted. He could feel that the mountain itself was an unimaginable monster. It was only temporarily sleeping, which was why it allowed people to approach.
If it was awake, perhaps even an invincible Saint would not be able to reach this place.
"Hmm, these are Sound Pattern Stones, and they're the highest-grade Sound Pattern Stones?!"
Xia Ping looked at the stones scattered on the ground, and he was surprised to find that the place was filled with top-grade Sound Pattern Stones. Their quality was almost the highest, and the Sound Pattern Stones in the outside world could not compare at all.
Every Sound Pattern Stone here was engraved with dense Sound Pattern Laws. They were transparent, like crystals, and had a hexagonal shape. It was as if a gentle knock could produce terrifying demonic sounds that rippled with real sounds. The laws of the universe that rippled and vibrated did not need to be forged into treasures at all.
The Sound Pattern Stones themselves were powerful treasures. If they produced sounds, they could easily destroy souls and shake the area within a radius of billions of kilometers.
If a top-notch smithing master or formation master were to appear in this place, they might be able to combine these Sound Pattern Stones and build a Demonic Noise Killing Formation, which would display the terrifying demonic noise of the Sound Pattern Mountain's secret realm and kill everything in its path.
This was the power of the top-notch Sound Pattern Stones. Low-grade Sound Pattern Stones could not compare to them at all.
"I'm rich, I'm rich. I'm rich this time."
Xia Ping's eyes lit up, and he was extremely excited. Even if he did not obtain any other treasures, just these top-notch Sound Pattern Stones alone made his trip worthwhile.
Even if only a top-grade Sound Pattern Stone was leaked, it would cause a huge commotion and cause countless Sages to fight over it.
Without saying a word, he searched for the top-notch Sound Rune Stones that were scattered around.
In just a short while, he had found 49 Peak Sound Rune Stones.
"Xia Ping, look, there seems to be something over there."
Suddenly, Korin's voice transmitted over. Just a moment ago, he was also investigating the surrounding environment, and seemed to have discovered something. His tone was hard to restrain his excitement.
"Hmm? It's a staircase?! "
Xia Ping looked in the direction Korin was pointing and immediately saw a stone staircase not far away. It seemed to be artificially forged, and beside the staircase was a huge broken rock.
Strange characters suddenly appeared on the surface of the broken rock. They seemed to be formed by unimaginable strokes, like a secret text.
Not only Xia Ping didn't understand these words, even the experienced and knowledgeable Korin also didn't understand them.
At that moment, the broken rock seemed to have sensed something. All the words on it seemed to come alive, turning into a supreme black scripture.
Boom!
The supreme black scripture instantly entered the depths of Xia Ping's sea of consciousness at lightning speed. Even if he wanted to react, he couldn't.
"This, this!"
Xia Ping's eyes lit up. He instantly understood the meaning of the stone wall. Vaguely, the black scripture in the depths of his sea of consciousness transformed into a language. It was like the language of the gods.
Even if he didn't understand this language, he could easily understand its meaning.
"I am the God of War, the symbol of power and authority. I am the embodiment of bloodthirstiness and calamity. I am the conqueror of all territories. Due to the Twilight of the Gods, the despicable God betrayed me and fell here …"
"Insignificant life, accept my inheritance and carry out my authority of war."
…
"I see."
Xia Ping quickly understood the meaning of the stone wall. It turned out that the God of War had died here, so he left his inheritance here in the hope that the future generations would be able to inherit his mantle.
This staircase was also known as the Staircase of Courage.
Once one stepped on this staircase, it was impossible to stop halfway. The only way to obtain the God of War's inheritance was to reach the top of the Sound Pattern Mountain.
This staircase had a total of 18,000 steps. The higher one went, the more terrifying the demonic sound would be. Ordinary Sages would have their souls shattered and die without a complete corpse.
However, once one succeeded, one would be able to obtain all of the God of War's power, his inheritance, and everything else.
At the top of the Sound Pattern Mountain was a palace known as the Temple of War. It was the residence of the God of War and contained all of the treasures left behind by the God of War.
"It's the God of War's inheritance?!"
Xia Ping squinted his eyes. He remembered that there had been invincible Sages who had entered this place before but were unable to leave. He guessed that they had also entered the God of War's inheritance.
Unfortunately, the God of War's inheritance was too terrifying. Even invincible Sages couldn't withstand the demonic sound's baptism. In the end, their souls were shattered and they fell here.
However, this was also the risk of obtaining the power of a deity. If one didn't fit the criteria of the deity's inheritance, he would probably die. There was no other possibility.
Since those invincible Sages could cultivate to such a level, they were naturally extremely confident. At the same time, they yearned for a higher level of power and wanted to become the true deities of this universe.
Therefore, those invincible Sages couldn't bear to give up and entered one after another. In the end, they all died in the process of obtaining the God of War's inheritance.
The deaths of those invincible Sages completely shocked countless Sages in the outside world. They even viewed the Sound Pattern Mountain as a place of demons. Even more Sages didn't dare to enter.
"However, if I want to obtain the God of War's inheritance, I'm afraid it won't be easy. Even invincible Sages can't withstand the baptism of the demonic sound, let alone the other Sages."
Xia Ping's eyes lit up. In fact, even if he thought about it carefully, he would know how difficult it was to obtain the God of War's inheritance. The demonic sound could even kill invincible Sages, let alone the other Sages.
Most likely, before they even reached the halfway point, they wouldn't be able to withstand the demonic sound and would die tragically on the stairs.
No wonder this path of training was called the Steps of Courage. If one didn't have the awareness of death and the courage to face death, no one would dare to step on this path of training.
