"The carvings on these steps should be relatively ordinary martial arts from the God Advent Tower."
Yi Yun determined the level of the heritage depicted in the murals. A large sect, other than the core heritage, would have other martial arts collected from various places.
Cultivating these martial arts might not have a promising future, so under normal circumstances, they were only used to accumulate wealth for the sect. They would be distributed to the outer-sect disciples.
Yi Yun took a quick look. He felt that the martial arts on the murals had a certain value. If he could fully understand them, it would of course be helpful to his martial arts. However, it would require a large amount of effort and time, so it was not worth it.
Since the God Advent Tower trial was a test of cultivation speed, Yi Yun still wanted to make greater progress in a limited amount of time. Only then would he be given a higher score.
The Great Empress mystic realm was a trial, but it was also an opportunity.
These elites entered the Great Empress mystic realm to seek opportunities. And the God Advent Tower in front of them was the first possible opportunity for all the cultivators.
Yi Yun's idea was to make full use of this opportunity.
It was not only Yi Yun, many people had the same idea. Those who did not obtain the title of "Knight" were pondering over how to comprehend the murals on the steps, so as to win the opportunity to enter the God Advent Tower.
Those who obtained the title of "Knight" were thinking of finding an opportunity to reach a higher level in the tower.
People like Shentu Nantian, Gongsun Hong and company were constantly looking at Yi Yun and Lin Xintong. They had already lost to the two of them at the starting line, so to obtain a good result in this trial, they had to first catch up to the level they were in!
"Let's go to the first level!"
Shentu Nantian waved his hand. The few people from the Shentu family clan who had obtained the title of "Knight" followed Shentu Nantian towards the door of light at the end of the steps.
Gongsun Hong and company followed closely. They knew when to make a choice. They did not want to waste time on these steps. It was not worth it to spend energy studying non-core heritage left for the losers.
Everyone had similar thoughts. Their footsteps became faster and faster. Many of the "unranked" cultivators looked enviously at them as they walked towards the door of light.
Those who had been eliminated were all elites from their respective factions. They would not give up so easily, so they began to race against time to study the murals.
"Yi Yun, let's go too." Lin Xintong said softly. Ever since she met Yi Yun, they had been traveling together.
In the beginning, Shentu Nantian was furious. After all, Lin Xintong had nearly become his woman. But later on, Shentu Nantian accepted his fate. He could not afford to be angry, or he would have died from anger.
Yi Yun nodded and landed at the end of the line with Lin Xintong.
Lin Xintong walked very slowly. To others, this path was a ladder to their future, but to Lin Xintong, it was a ladder to her life.
If she didn't reach the end, her life would wither like a flower that had just bloomed.
Yi Yun obviously knew the significance of the trip to the Great Empress mystic realm to Lin Xintong. He only quietly accompanied Lin Xintong and did not speak much.
However, when Yi Yun and Lin Xintong walked up more than ten steps, an inconspicuous beam of light suddenly flashed past the edge of Yi Yun's vision.
This stream of light attracted Yi Yun's attention.
"Eh?"
Yi Yun was slightly stunned as he stopped in his tracks.
"What's the matter?" Lin Xintong also stopped and looked strangely at Yi Yun.
After possessing the Purple Crystal for such a long period of time, Yi Yun's sensitivity to energy fluctuations had reached an unbelievable level. Yi Yun knew that the stream of light he saw was an energy beam.
Yi Yun stroked his chin and looked around. His eyes were locked onto more than ten connected murals not far away.
At first glance, there was nothing strange about the murals in front of him, but … Yi Yun knew that the methods used to carve these murals were different.
Compared to the other murals, these murals were likely carved by different people. It was very likely that they were personally carved by a peerless expert.
During the carving process, the peerless expert had left behind nomological marks in the strokes. These nomological marks contained Origins energy. Even after such a long period of time, they were still condensed and did not dissipate!
"Is there a problem with these murals?"
Lin Xintong was surprised. She understood Yi Yun's character. Yi Yun would not make a fuss over meaningless matters. Since he had stopped here, the murals in front of him were likely extraordinary.
"Maybe …" Yi Yun could not be sure.
The Great Empress mystic realm was too complicated. In the Great Empress mystic realm, Yi Yun felt that there were traps everywhere.
In the first trial, people thought that it was a test of the cultivator's movement techniques and their sensitivity to danger. However, Yi Yun later discovered that it was actually a test of the cultivator's insight into the enemy's weaknesses.
Following that, on the bridge, people like Gongsun Hong, who thought too little of the ancient desolate beasts, suffered a great deal.
As for the second trial, it was a test of mental demons. The process of the trial was extremely strange. It was difficult to tell what was real and what was fake. Even a proud daughter of Heaven like Lin Xintong fell into a dream that she could not wake up from.
And when they finally completed the mental demon trial with great difficulty, the Great Empress mystic realm told them that the mental demon trial was just a test of everyone's strength. The second trial was actually a test of everyone's cultivation speed.
Such an unpredictable trial content made Yi Yun deeply feel that the ancient Great Empress had endless means when designing the Great Empress mystic realm. As such, it was not strange for her to place a supreme heritage in a borderline martial art that did not have much value.
People thought that the murals on the steps were prepared for those who were eliminated, so there were very few people who would pay attention to them.
Even Yi Yun and Lin Xintong did not think that these martial arts were of any value.
To place a pearl in a pile of sand, then to obtain it, one not only needed luck and opportunities, they also needed to constantly observe their surroundings, as well as having extraordinary eyesight!
When Lin Xintong and Yi Yun stopped, Shentu Nantian, who was walking right in front of the group, also stopped. He looked like he was in a hurry to enter the tower, but in fact, Shentu Nantian's perception was locked onto Yi Yun and Lin Xintong. Once the two of them made any strange movements, Shentu Nantian would know.
"Big brother Nantian, what's the matter?"
A few lackeys noticed Shentu Nantian turn his head back, so they turned their heads as well. They saw Yi Yun and Lin Xintong stop on the steps, as if they were studying something.
"These two idiots. They are actually looking at the murals on the steps with those losers. Haha, they are actually coveting such small benefits. They are really picking sesame seeds but losing watermelon!"
A lackey said with a laugh. However, Shentu Nantian's face sank as he said coldly, "Why do I always have idiots like you beside me? If you were smart, you would have long surpassed the two of them in terms of rating!"
After being scolded by Shentu Nantian, the lackey choked and could not say a word.
"You, go take a look. See what that little bastard is studying on the steps!"
Shentu Nantian had wanted to go himself, but he could not bring himself to do so. Hence, he sent his lackeys to investigate. This way, he could save his face and not suffer a loss.
