"Bai Yijian, what are you planning?" Shangguan Qinger's face was filled with bewilderment, and her eyes were filled with deep shock. She said in a puzzled tone, "The Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Pool is a sacred place that Senior Tian Jizi left behind for the Guardians. Not to mention outsiders, even among the Guardians, only a few people have the privilege to enter it to train, right?"
A sacred place left behind by Tian Jizi? It looked like Tian Jizi did not forget to take care of his disciples and descendants before he died.
However, these descendants had forgotten their ancestor's will and were now plotting to pass on the legacy.
"Hehe, I am a man of my word. Whether you believe me or not is up to you. From now on, the five people who take the least amount of time to cross the stone statue forest will be able to enter our sacred place!" Bai Yijian calmly said.
The crowd, who were initially uninterested in the stone statue forest, became excited, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.
Just as Su Yu and Xia Jingyu were feeling puzzled, Shangguan Qinger walked over and said with a smile, "Brother Black Snow, if you want to go, Qinger can bring you along. Qinger can also reluctantly bring this woman along as well."
Her words were heard by the people in the surroundings, and there was another round of noise.
If that was the case, three out of the five spots would be taken.
Shangguan Qinger had successfully crossed the stone statue before she had even reached the Fairy Realm.
Bringing two people along might be a little taxing, but it would not affect her from entering the top five.
Su Yu creased his brows. "No need. There is no need to take such a risk."
They were still unclear of the true intentions of this sacred place. A simple promise of purifying spirit energy to increase one's cultivation level was not enough for Su Yu to judge its importance.
"Hehe, Brother Black Snow, you must quickly make up your mind. The Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Pool was created by an All Creation Old Monster. To a Human King like you, breaking through to the level of Half God is not an issue. If you are lucky, you might even be able to form your first Vital Energy Crystal." Shangguan Qinger playfully blinked her eyes.
What? Su Yu and Xia Jingyu were shocked.
In the Zhenlong Continent, breaking through from Human King to Half God required at least a year of accumulation. This was limited to special beings like Su Yu and her.
Forming a Vital Energy Crystal from Half God to Half God required another two years of accumulation.
The spiritual pool before their eyes could be easily achieved!
In fact, Su Yu and she could easily surpass the Half God realm and start to condense Vital Energy Crystals!
Such a fortuitous encounter could only be chanced upon but not sought after!
"Brother Black Snow, what do you think?" Shangguan Qinger seemed to have seen through Su Yu's thoughts, and she said with a smile.
Xia Jingyu glanced at Shangguan Qinger and calmed herself down.
At this point, she naturally understood that Su Yu was indeed a complete stranger to her. Everything was just because the girl was trying to be friendly with him!
"Brother Yu, let me try first." Xia Jingyu pondered for a moment, then took out the Feather Needle of Darkness. With this needle in hand, if she strengthened her Water Path, her strength would be comparable to a Half Fairy with two crystals.
She really didn't want Su Yu to owe this young girl a favor because of her.
Shangguan Qinger glanced at her and said calmly, "With your power, you are just sending yourself to your death. Do you think that you can block the petrifying energy that the worms spew out?"
"The Petrifying Gas isn't a gas on the surface. It's actually a mental attack. Your Water Path is just a physical attack. It has no effect on the Petrifying Gas."
Spiritual attack? Su Yu was surprised. It was no wonder that even a fairy like Sheng Ge was petrified.
If one were to barge in unknowingly, it would be difficult to defend against it.
"If you have a soul defense treasure on you, pretend that I didn't say anything." Shangguan Qinger had a faint smile.
Xia Jingyu creased her brows. Even though she was proficient in many techniques, she didn't have the talent for souls.
At this moment, someone finally couldn't resist the temptation of the Mysterious Heavenly Spiritual Pool and made a move.
A One Crystal Half Fairy carefully walked to the edge of the Divine Sparrow Stage.
Below him was the stone statue forest, which was covered in dense fog. Many geniuses had been sealed there forever, becoming stone statues that could be faintly seen within the fog.
The crowd gradually quietened down, all of them looking at the Half Fairy who had tried first.
The One Crystal Half Fairy looked at the ghost-like stone statues, as though he was facing a great enemy.
He gathered all of his spirit energy and vital energy on his body, acting as his first line of defense.
He then took out a powerful defensive talisman and pasted it on his forehead. The talisman immediately released a layer of dark yellow light, enveloping his body.
"A Fairy Realm defensive talisman?" The crowd was secretly shocked. This Half Fairy, whose cultivation level wasn't considered to be at the peak, could actually take out a Fairy Realm defensive talisman. This shocked everyone.
At this moment, the other party took out a pair of wheels. He stepped on them, causing them to spin rapidly.
The air waves that were created caused a large part of the dense fog to disperse.
"A treasure that can increase one's speed? Could it be that semi-manufactured spiritual artifact, the Wind Stepping Wheels, that is said to be unrivaled in the world? How did this item appear in the hands of a wandering martial artist? "
"Wait! Could he be the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands's Rapist, Qian Li Xiang? It is rumored that there will be a woman in the future. Countless women from good families have been killed by him, and even the female cultivators of the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands have been killed by him. They are listed as evil cultivators that the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands must kill. She was once chased by a Fairy, but she managed to escape easily by relying on the Wind Treading Wheels! "
The crowd's hearts sank. With this person's famous Light Body Technique, he might really be able to pass through the stone statue forest quickly and reach the land of legacy.
"Quick, stop him!" Someone let out a low grunt, his figure grabbing toward Qian Li Xiang like lightning.
Dozens of figures moved upon hearing the news. They could not give Qian Li Xiang a chance, as he could snatch one of the spots!
Qian Li Xiang was already prepared. He laughed, releasing a red fog around his body, covering his figure. The Wind Stepping Wheels under his feet started spinning rapidly.
His figure disappeared from his original position.
When he reappeared, he was already a thousand feet away, having crossed a large section of the stone statue forest.
In the blink of an eye, he had crossed another thousand feet.
By the time the worms in the stone statue forest reacted, Qian Li Xiang had already leaped ten thousand feet, crossing a third of the area.
Su Yu was secretly surprised. Previously, when he was in the stone statue forest, he had already felt that there was some sort of suppression near the stone statue forest. His vital energy and spiritual energy could not circulate smoothly, and his body technique's speed was obviously suppressed.
Qian Li Xiang's Wind Stepping Wheels were, after all, a semi-manufactured spiritual artifact. His speed was definitely not limited to this.
Shangguan Qinger nodded. "Yes, your speed is not bad. You are much stronger than I was back then."
"Your speed is indeed not bad." Bai Yijian's eyes lit up.
Although his body technique was obviously slow, in the eyes of the two of them, it was not bad. It could be seen that flying in the stone statue forest was indeed difficult.
"But, if it is only at this level …" Bai Yijian shook his head indifferently.
At that moment, Qian Li Xiang was treading on thin ice, flying quickly above the stone statue forest.
Every time he passed by, the worms would react and spit out fog, which did not pose much of a threat to him.
At that moment, he had already crossed a third of the area and was about to enter the central area.
However, at that moment, a large amount of gray fog erupted in front of him, as if a volcano had erupted. It was as if a light screen had appeared in front of him.
Qian Li Xiang's expression changed abruptly. When he looked over, he saw a giant worm, which was more than twice the size of a normal worm, spitting out a large amount of fog.
At the same time that Qian Li Xiang's expression changed, he took out a talisman and tore it open, creating a blue hurricane in an attempt to sweep away the fog.
However, the fog did not move at all. It allowed the hurricane to blow, and it was not affected in the slightest.
Qian Li Xiang's eyes flashed with unwillingness, and he could only choose to retreat.
However, when he retreated, he realized that his path of retreat had already been surrounded by the worms!
Shocked, Qian Li Xiang dashed towards the sky.
However, he had only flown a thousand feet before he crashed into an invisible, transparent light screen, which caused him to fall back down.
Below him, the entire sky was filled with gray fog, which had wrapped around him.
The fog ignored the protective light screen on the surface of his body, as well as the vital energy and spiritual energy defense on the surface of his body. It landed directly on his body.
Qian Li Xiang screamed in extreme fear, as his body suddenly turned into stone and fell from the sky.
Slap!
He fell from the sky and landed on the ground, directly turning into broken stones. He had died on the spot!
If a normal stone statue had the spiritual liquid of a female worm, it would still be able to recover its physical body and see the light of day again.
However, Qian Li Xiang's death was undeniable!
The rapist of his generation had been smashed into pieces just like that.
The entire crowd was silent, as they stared at Qian Li Xiang, who had died without a proper burial.
Many geniuses, who had been eager to try, felt as if they had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
His death had dispelled most of the people's greed.
The stone statue forest was too terrifying.
Bai Yijian calmly said, "If you do not wish to die even faster, do not fly too high."
Shangguan Qinger was not surprised, as she looked at Su Yu with a smile. "Brother Black Snow, what do you think? Have you considered it?"
Was there even a need to consider? After witnessing this scene with their own eyes, unless one had extraordinary abilities, who would dare to attempt the cruel stone statue forest?
Many people looked at Su Yu with envious gazes. Was Shangguan Qinger the only person present who had absolute confidence?
"There is no need. I alone am enough," Su Yu calmly said, pulling Xia Jingyu to the edge of the Divine Sparrow Stage.
This scene caused everyone to be shocked once again. "This lad is extraordinarily courageous! I wonder where he got his confidence from, daring to cross the stone statue forest. Most importantly, he brought someone with him! "
Bai Yijian was shocked. He could not help but size up Su Yu. After confirming that Su Yu only had the cultivation level of a Human King, he creased his brows. "Young man, if you do not understand the stone statue forest, you should understand more before taking action."
"There are seals around the stone statue forest, suppressing the movement techniques of those who enter. If you bring another person with you, the power of the suppression will not be as simple as one plus one. Instead, it will multiply. With your cultivation level, you will not be much faster than an ordinary person if you bring another person with you. I advise you not to send yourself to your death."
He was not worried about Su Yu's safety. Rather, if he failed again and again and someone died, it would cause even more people to give up. This would greatly affect his ability to gather more people.
Hearing this, Su Yu's expression was calm. "I know what I am doing. If there is nothing else, I will set off."
As Su Yu spoke casually, he pulled Xia Jingyu along with him and left in front of the crowd's gazes.
