The supreme expert who presided over the finals appeared above the crowd and said, "There are a total of nine rounds in the finals of the Blood Valley. First is the first round, which is also the key to entering Slaughter Mountain. "
Nine rounds of competition?
The contestants perked up.
"The first round is very important and will affect your results in the finals. After passing the first round, you will choose a treasure from the rewards provided by the East Mysterious Heavenly Pavilion. You will also need to use your climbing token to subdue the blood spirit. "
These words made the contestants excited at first. They did not expect that there would be a treasure reward in the first round.
Then, he was confused. What was a blood spirit?
"The rules of the first round are very simple. You have to find the right path to climb Slaughter Mountain from those paths."
"There are a total of 10,000 mountain paths in front of you. However, for each contestant, only one of them can lead to the top of Slaughter Mountain. The rest are all wrong. The test is to find the correct path among them. It doesn't matter if you fail. You will be sent back and have to search again until you find the right path. "
"The first to enter Slaughter Mountain will have priority in choosing the reward. Most importantly, you will have priority in choosing the blood spirit. The blood spirit will play an important role in the finals. However, there are only a few powerful blood spirits, so you have to hurry up. Otherwise, the finals will become more difficult. In addition, you will be ranked according to the order of climbing the mountain. "
"Good luck to all of you. Let's begin!"
The phantom of the expert explained the rules and then stood in the air without saying anything else.
"Among the 10,000 paths, only one is the right path to climb the mountain. How should we choose?"
"Do we have to try them one by one? There are 10,000 paths in total. How long will it take? "
"This round will definitely test the contestants' eyesight. I have always had good eyesight. This time, I will definitely be the first to climb Slaughter Mountain!"
The ten thousand paths looked exactly the same. Some people were completely dumbfounded, while others were full of confidence.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! More than a dozen figures could not wait to rush up the mountain. Each of them chose a path and stepped directly into it. Soon, they disappeared without a trace.
After about an hour, more than a dozen flashes of blood light flashed in succession. The contestants were all sent back.
Following that, a few more contestants tried, but they were all sent back down the mountain without exception.
All the contestants were dumbfounded.
Dongxuan Huihuang, Ye Feixuan, and the rest executed all sorts of skills and abilities in an attempt to find clues and find the correct path quickly.
"Obviously, it's not as simple as just testing the contestants' eyesight. There must be something fishy going on …"
Su Fang used his Heaven's Prying Eye and continued to deduce, hoping to discover something.
"Eh …"
The result made Su Fang shocked and stunned.
Why was that?
Su Fang was surprised to find that every path was exactly the same, without any difference. Even with the [Heaven's Divination], it was difficult to find any clues.
"How should I choose? Don't tell me I have to try my luck one by one … Hmm, luck? "
A light suddenly flashed through Su Fang's deep eyes.
Among the ten thousand identical paths, there seemed to be no other way to find the correct path to climb the mountain, other than trying one by one to try one's luck.
Moreover, the last words that the expert said, "Good luck to all of you …" seemed to have a hidden meaning.
"My luck has always been pretty good!"
Su Fang chuckled. He had the Purple Fate Dharma Body, how could his luck be bad?
Thinking of this, Su Fang no longer hesitated and rushed down the mountain.
Su Fang's actions immediately attracted the attention of all the contestants. Even the expert in the air began to pay attention to Su Fang's every move.
Boom!
A mysterious purple Qi exploded from Su Fang's body. Purple Qi circled around him, and a purple cloud canopy floated above his head.
Su Fang casually chose a path, and then he stepped onto it without hesitation.
The Jiuxuan expert in the air stared at Su Fang and muttered to himself, "This child has cultivated such an extraordinary Dharma Body and is blessed with great fortune. No wonder he can rise so quickly in such a short period of time … However, if he wants to pass with just fortune, it's good to let him suffer a little!"
Dongxuan Huihuang sensed the unparalleled fortune from Su Fang's Purple Fate Dharma Body and his pupils shrank. "I've long heard that Su Fang has an extraordinary Dharma Body that can suppress Dongxuan's Calamity Dharma Body. Now that I've seen it, it's indeed extraordinary. No wonder he could obtain the Celestial Blood-Refined Mastiff that should have belonged to me …"
Ye Feixuan sneered inwardly. "Even if you have unparalleled fortune, how can you compare to a cultivator from a top Divine Tribe like me? Before I was born, I was already tainted by the Mystical World's fortune with my mother's body. I was born with unparalleled fortune. How can an ant like you compare to me? As long as there's a chance, I'll seize your fortune and destroy your Dharma Body! "
Su Fang strode forward along the path as fast as lightning.
About two hours later, a barrier suddenly appeared and blocked Su Fang's path, completely sealing off the path ahead.
Unexpectedly, he had walked into a dead end.
"How can this be? Is my luck bad or was my speculation wrong? Is this the first stage not based on luck? "
Su Fang was surprised.
In the next moment, a spatial distortion enveloped Su Fang and teleported him out.
When Su Fang reappeared, he was back at the intersection at the foot of the mountain.
"Look at how confident he was. I thought he could pass in one try. In the end, he was still sent back."
Ye Feixuan scoffed.
The other cultivators were also disappointed.
They had hoped to learn some experience from Su Fang. Who would have thought that Su Fang's first attempt would end in failure as well?
"My previous speculation was obviously wrong. To find a way to ascend the mountain quickly, one can't lack luck, but it's not everything."
Cultivators and cultivators would find it difficult to progress without luck. However, relying on luck blindly would not allow one to achieve much either. Luck was always a support; it was not the main factor.
Su Fang sat down cross-legged at the intersection and pondered hard, carefully recalling the rules of the first stage that the Jiuxuan expert had mentioned.
Contestants kept trying to pass the stage. They did not have any good ideas and could only rely on luck. In the end, all of them ended in failure.
Unknowingly, three days had passed.
Almost every contestant, including Dongxuan Huihuang and Ye Feixuan, had given it a try. In the end, no one could pass successfully.
"Damn it! Humans only know how to play tricks. Since we're Jiuxuan's Heaven's Chosen, we should fight to our hearts' content. Why do we have to come up with such tricks to torment your father? "
After failing again and again, the Monster Clan youth flew into a rage out of humiliation and began to curse loudly.
Boom!
A will descended abruptly and enveloped the yao youth.
The yao youth staggered and fell to his knees, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"If you dare to spout nonsense again, you will be disqualified and killed!" The cold voice of the Jiuxuan expert rang out.
The yao youth had wanted to vent his anger, but after suffering such a great loss, he had to swallow his anger and did not dare to speak carelessly anymore.
Many contestants completely dispelled their hopes of getting lucky and tried the paths one by one. They were prepared to try all ten thousand paths and find the correct one.
Bam!
Su Fang, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes. There was a strange glow in his pupils.
He walked towards the right side of Slaughter Mountain, stopping only when he reached a place where there was no path.
"What is Su Fang planning to do?"
"Could it be that he got the lowest grade mountaineering medallion and couldn't figure it out, so he wants to kill himself on Slaughter Mountain to prove his determination?"
The crowd's attention was drawn to Su Fang, and there was a flurry of discussion.
Suddenly ~
Su Fang faced the steep mountain peak and took large strides forward.
There were amazing shackles around Slaughter Mountain. Daoist Masters could not fly and could only walk.
When Su Fang was about to hit the mountain wall, vines suddenly emerged from his hands, feet, and body. They attached themselves to the mountain wall and quickly climbed up like a gecko.
Three feet, six feet, fifteen feet …
Soon, Su Fang climbed to a height of more than three hundred feet and entered the area surrounded by blood mist, disappearing into it.
Su Fang finally found a way to climb the mountain, and it was very simple.
Every stage of the Jiuxuan's Chosen Stage designed by the Jiuxuan's higher-ups had a profound meaning.
Finding the mountaineering medallion tested the cultivator's wisdom, ability, and character.
The first stage was the same. It was not a stupid way for the contestants to try one path after another and try their luck.
Since it was difficult to find the correct path from ten thousand paths, why couldn't they take the one thousand and first path?
Although there was no path, it would become a path as long as they walked on it!
Obviously, it required luck to find the correct path from ten thousand paths.
However, Su Fang took a different approach. Breaking the rules seemed simple, but it required incomparable courage, determination, and the courage to break the rules.
In this way, Su Fang climbed up Slaughter Mountain in a simple, domineering, and extraordinary way.
The Jiuxuan powerhouse in the air nodded repeatedly. "If you want to achieve something extraordinary, you have to take an extraordinary path. Su Fang … is indeed a good seedling. Other geniuses can't compare to him!"
"How can he do that?"
More than three thousand contestants at the foot of Slaughter Mountain turned into ice sculptures one by one. They stared at the place where Su Fang disappeared, dumbfounded.
In Wudao City, countless people saw this scene through the Jiuxuan Divine List and were completely dumbfounded.
"Su Fang ignored the rules. He must have angered the Jiuxuan powerhouses. He will be thrown down from the mountain directly by the Jiuxuan powerhouses!"
Some contestants were looking forward to the scene where Su Fang was thrown down the mountain.
However, more than six hours had passed and the scene they were looking forward to did not appear.
Obviously, Su Fang found the best shortcut. He was the first to pass the first stage and climbed up Slaughter Mountain.
"Who doesn't know how to be opportunistic like this?"
The Demon youth laughed wildly and went straight to the place where Su Fang had climbed the mountain.
Then he released his Demon Aura. Like a python, he quickly climbed up the mountain wall with his body close to the mountain wall. His speed was several times faster than Su Fang's.
Seeing this, the other contestants followed suit and ran to the two sides of Slaughter Mountain where there were no paths.
A moment later.
Boom!
A figure fell from the mountain and landed heavily on the ground. A human-shaped pit was formed on the hard ground. Dust flew everywhere.
It was the Demon youth who had just climbed up Slaughter Mountain.
"Why? Why can Su Fang climb up but I can't? "The Demon youth staggered up from the ground and roared angrily.
"The first person who doesn't take the ordinary path is a genius. The second person is a mediocre and a fool! The method that Su Fang has used, no one else can use it. Otherwise, I won't be responsible if you fall to your death. "
The Jiuxuan powerhouse said lightly.
