It wasn't because there were too many stone steps, or because there were too many figures around. It wasn't because of the opponent's increasing strength, but because of the suppression of speed.
It was like climbing a mountain by yourself. The higher you went, the more tired you would be, and the higher you went, the slower you would be.
Everyone knew that the further you went, the more you couldn't stop. The slower you went, the greater the pressure, especially in your heart, which would make your body feel heavier.
Yun Fan felt really uncomfortable. He was constantly changing. He had to adjust his tactics and control his strength.
If he hadn't specially trained his physical strength in Sin Soul Break Valley, he wouldn't have been able to hold on.
"Venomous Blood Spike!"
Ximen Yong recognized it at first glance. He had specially gotten this for Hall Master Wei.
This spiritual weapon's strongest point was its attack speed, which made up for Yun Fan's current weakness.
His attacks were slow, but with the help of the Venomous Blood Spike, Yun Fan's attack speed wasn't any slower than before. The approaching figures were all killed in an instant.
This wasn't the eighth level of the Element Gathering Realm, but the eighth level of the Mortal Shedding Realm. Over a hundred eighth level Mortal Shedding Realm cultivators were all killed under the suppression.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
This wasn't just powerful anymore. It was undeniable that if he wasn't suppressed, even a first level Fusion Realm cultivator might not be a match for Yun Fan.
Not only did the people below think so, but the four old men in the sky also thought so.
One by one, they revealed a horrified expression and quickly struck the light barrier with their palms. They really wanted to know how strong this young man in front of them was.
The sixteenth step, half speed, a hundred ninth level Mortal Shedding Realm cultivators.
No matter which one it was, it sounded shocking. At this moment, Yun Fan had already collapsed without hesitation.
As soon as he went up, blood splattered everywhere.
It wasn't anyone else's, but his.
The difference in speed made him unable to dodge or defend. He could only watch as the attacks landed on his body. However, he didn't retreat and stood there with his body covered in injuries.
At this moment, he could tell that the four people above wanted to see his true strength.
At this moment, he could use the wood intent, the Victorious Inscription, or Yun Yu's help. He could even let Yun Liang release his blood qi to strengthen his attack.
But he didn't. He didn't want to reveal too much. If he really couldn't pass, then at worst, he wouldn't need the recommendation letter.
Furthermore, he wanted to see what his limits were without using his trump cards.
This was a rare opportunity, one that couldn't be bought with money.
Blood kept dripping down his arm, and his tattered clothes were already soaked in blood. Just when everyone thought that he was going to give up, he suddenly rushed forward.
He ran back and forth. Although his speed was very slow, it made it difficult for his opponent to grasp his movements.
Even if he could grasp it, Yun Fan would still be able to find an opportunity to strike. Because he was running, the timing and speed of his attacks were different from before. He would always strike when the opponent was least expecting it, and he would always be able to strike when it was hard for the opponent to dodge.
Once he made a move, he would grab hold of his opponent tightly and kill them with a decisive blow.
Every time he killed a person, he would receive even more scars.
His entire body was covered in blood, and it was impossible to see his original appearance. Even so, he did not stop.
"This is crazy. How are we going to fight like this?"
"If we keep fighting like this, he's going to bleed dry!"
At this moment, even Beishan Tingxue, who hated Yun Fan to the core, was visibly moved.
Many people didn't fear death. But there weren't many who could do what Yun Fan had done.
Beishan Tingxue couldn't do it. Cao Zhan couldn't do it. Dongfang Lie and Ximen Yong couldn't do it either. Because of this, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for him.
This was respect for an expert. This was respect for an unyielding spirit.
"Brother, forget it!" Cao Zhan sighed.
"Boss, don't fight anymore. Even if you pass this step, they'll still come up with another one. There's no way to finish it! "
Dongfang Lie roared. Everyone could tell that so long as Yun Fan didn't fall, the stone steps would continue to appear.
However, Yun Fan couldn't hear them at all. Even if he could, he wouldn't give up.
Finally, there were no more figures on the sixteenth step. Yun Fan strode towards the seventeenth step.
He didn't notice, and neither did the people below. The bodies of the four old men in the air had become extremely transparent.
Just creating the tenth step had expended a great deal of their true energy. Creating the sixth step had drained almost all of their true energy.
The seventeenth step required 40% speed. A hundred half-step Fusion realm experts.
This was enough to destroy an entire clan or half of a third-rate sect. But Yun Fan charged forward without hesitation. He used the same method, relying purely on his willpower to persevere.
His longsword had already lost its use. He used his bare hands to grab them, then used the Poisonblood Stinger to kill them.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere. Most of the snow-white stone steps had turned blood-red. At this moment, the people below suddenly saw two diagrams appear on the light barrier.
The diagram on the left was very familiar. It was a stone path covered in snow. However, the first to sixteenth steps had already turned blood-red. Only the seventeenth step was half snow-white.
The diagram on the right was somewhat puzzling because it was the outline of a bloody person. It was like a container that was originally filled with blood. Now, only a little bit of blood was left below the ankle.
"Deacon Li, what's the meaning of this?"
Deacon Li sighed softly. "According to the records of the guild, the Blood Path of Life and Death can be considered passed under three circumstances. Reaching any one of them is fine.
"The first is naturally to cross all the stone steps. After the last stone step, there will be a miniature short-distance teleportation array. After passing it, the person will be automatically sent out.
"The second is the blood-stained snow that we mentioned at the beginning. That is to kill everyone and let their blood soak the white snow.
"The third is called Heaven's Thread. It means that the person doesn't collapse when he has only a sliver of blood left. If the heavens don't let him die at this time, he will also be considered to have passed. "
"Damn, why doesn't this sound reliable?"
"The first and second are similar! Since we can go up, we will naturally kill everyone. "
Deacon Li said helplessly, "It wasn't like this originally. Actually, the last stone step can be crossed. As long as we can cross it, we will be considered to have passed.
However, he doesn't know now. So it seems like the first and second are similar. According to the difficulty, the first is the easiest, but he doesn't know. "
Everyone was stunned. Only then did they understand how big of a trap Yun Fan had fallen into. This trap was enough to bury him alive.
