"We are only close to the mountain now. Once we enter it, all we need to do is to meditate and learn the Nine Esotericas!" Zhou Tong understood this and walked up the mountain.
Beside him, Ji Ziyue was also telling Ye Fan about the Nine Esotericas.
When the two of them saw Zhou Tong walking up, they hurriedly followed him.
At this moment, it was quiet in front of the main peak. Weeds were growing in front of the gate. This place did not look like a celestial mountain at all. Instead, it was a messy mountain. Even the path was covered by thorns.
At this moment, a stooped and trembling old man walked out of a dilapidated palace on the mountain and walked down.
"Are you here for the test?"
The old man's eyes were cloudy. "It's been five hundred years and the inheritance has not appeared. It's almost gone. I don't know how long we have to wait. You might be wasting your time here."
"We are not afraid. We have all the time in the world to wait." Ji Ziyue smiled sweetly and walked up to support the old man.
The group walked up and saw that there were many palaces on the 3,000-meter-tall main peak. However, all of them had collapsed. The courtyard was overgrown with weeds. It was simply a wilderness.
Right at this moment, a dozen or so streaks of divine light rushed over from nearby, flying towards an extremely dazzling main peak.
"Li Xiaoman … didn't listen to me!" Zhou Tong frowned. "But since you asked for it, don't blame me if you die!"
It was foreseeable that once Li Xiaoman met Hua Yunfei and revealed that she came from the other side of the universe, she would definitely be dragged into the same boat by Hua Yunfei who yearned for freedom.
At that time, they would definitely become enemies.
The old man seemed to have noticed their gazes. He immediately suggested, "The main peak in front of us is extremely prosperous. Instead of choosing this peak, you might as well choose the inheritance there."
"We only care about the inheritance on this peak." Ji Ziyue smiled.
The old man nodded with a smile. "Good, you are ambitious. Since you chose this peak, you must know that the inheritance on this peak is one of the legendary Nine Esotericas. I hope you can gain something from it. "
The Humble Peak, just like its name, had no beautiful scenery, no majestic aura, and no spiritual roots. There was nothing special about it. It was just an ordinary peak.
However, at this moment, several figures suddenly flew over from the horizon.
These people were just passing by, but when they saw that there were people coming to this mountain today, they were curious and immediately flew down.
"Greetings, Martial Uncle Li!" These disciples first saluted the old man.
At this moment, Ye Fan asked, "Senior, what kind of test do I have to go through before I can stay?"
The old man shook his head and said, "There is no need to test. There has been no one here for many years. If you insist on staying, you will all pass."
"I reckon that these three people's aptitudes are absolutely terrible. It's impossible for them to be chosen by the other main peaks. Therefore, they came here to undergo the test."
"These three people are quite clever. They want to use this method to stay, but they don't know that it's useless. Once they choose this mountain, they can't join any other main mountain."
"For many years, there have always been people who thought they were smart, but in the end, they still left with their tails between their legs."
These young disciples discussed quietly and sneered. They were the disciples of the main peak in front of them. The inheritance there was extremely flourishing.
Ji Ziyue was not convinced and immediately said, "Senior, let's follow the rules!"
Ye Fan also found this to be an eyesore and immediately wanted to speak up.
"If the great accomplishment is lacking, there is no harm in it. If the great accomplishment is like a strong force, there are endless uses. If the great is straightforward, then the great is clumsy. If the great is eloquent, then the great is inarticulate. There is no need to lower yourself to their level! "
Zhou Tong said indifferently. He did not pay attention to these disciples at all.
"This is … the words of the Tao Te Ching!" Ye Fan immediately understood what Zhou Tong meant and stopped talking.
"This guy is really arrogant!" Ji Ziyue whispered.
She knew very well that the words "great accomplishment is lacking" and "great accomplishment is like a strong force" were just words to fool people. Zhou Tong was simply "arrogant" and did not take these people seriously at all.
It was like a person overlooking an ant on the ground. Who would care about an ant on the ground?
Zhou Tong saw that the old man in front of him did not continue walking. He did not want to go directly past the master and directly enter the deepest part of the mountain. He found a place and sat down with his legs crossed.
Without paying attention to the others, Zhou Tong directly activated the Emperor Sutra. Suddenly, countless chanting sounds came from his Taoist Palace.
Then, an inexplicable Daoist Rhyme flowed. It was very mysterious. There was no sound, no ripple, only a strange charm that appeared in Zhou Tong's mind.
"This is the Nine Esotericas, 'All' …" Zhou Tong silently activated this charm in his mind. Suddenly, the other three secret skills in his body seemed to be activated and activated together.
Out of the Nine Esotericas, Dou Esotericas, All Esotericas, Group Esotericas, Zhou Tong had already obtained four.
"The Nine Esotericas are indeed one. With each one, I can feel this secret skill getting stronger!" Zhou Tong silently activated the Nine Esotericas in his mind and could not help but smile.
Of the Four Esotericas, Zhou Tong valued the Front Esotericas the most because it was the only secret skill that could be cultivated. It was a secret skill that could increase one's strength.
With one more of the Nine Esotericas, the effect of cultivating the Front Esotericas became much stronger.
"Maybe, before I reach the Immortal Foundation Secret Realm, I will be able to surpass Ye Fan!" Zhou Tong said in his heart.
The reason why Ye Fan was able to cultivate so quickly at Level 1 of the Immortal Foundation Secret Realm was mainly because he ate the fruit from the forbidden grounds of the Ancient Desolation. His divine sense was already very strong.
Even the current Zhou Tong was slightly weaker than Ye Fan.
However, as the Nine Esotericas were perfected, the Front Esotericas became more and more efficient. Zhou Tong was confident that before he reached the Immortal Foundation Secret Realm, his divine sense would surpass Ye Fan's in the original work.
"Let's see if I can activate the Esotericas. If I can't, it means that my combat strength has reached the Eight Limit!" Zhou Tong kept trying in his heart.
Ever since he came out from the Bronze Immortal Palace, he had comprehended the Dao Scripture's Sea of Reincarnation Scroll. He had even used the Saint Physique's secret skill to faintly connect the Dao Scripture and the Feather Transformation Scripture.
Zhou Tong felt that his battle prowess seemed to have risen to another level.
At the same time, the old man also seemed to have been touched. He stood quietly on the mountain as if he was immersed in his own world. He was becoming more and more ordinary, like a rock or a tree in this world …
However, Ji Ziyue could not stand the stimulation of the disciples. She directly walked up the Nine Colored Sky Stairway and successfully reached the top after a series of trials.
Suddenly, heavenly music filled the air and a five-colored brilliance shot up into the sky. She successfully climbed up the Nine Steps Stairway, and strange phenomena appeared on the Humble Peak.
The old man, who was about to enter the Tao Comprehension Realm, was suddenly awakened. The ancient Tao Rhyme disappeared at once.
"It seems that it's not time yet!" The rare opportunity was interrupted, but the old man was not angry at all. He was only calm.
He looked at Zhou Tong, who was not far away, and was surprised. "This young man's temperament is not ordinary! To be able to withstand such stimulation and still be able to cultivate so calmly? "
Then he thought of what Ye Futian had said before, "Great success seems to be lacking, great strength seems to be rushing, great straightforwardness seems to be bending, great skill seems to be clumsy, and great debate seems to be inarticulate." The old man thought, "Is it really God's arrangement? Is the inheritance of my Humble Peak going to appear?"
