After passing by the transfer station, Yi Tian slowly walked on the main road alone. When he first entered, the elder had mentioned that the entire journey was only about a hundred kilometers.
The first half of the journey tested his Dao Heart and mind, but he didn't know what the second half would be like. The road in front of him seemed to be flat. When he looked up, he could directly see the Taiqing Pavilion.
However, Yi Tian didn't dare to be careless. Logically speaking, the simpler the path, the more traps there were. Yi Tian carefully walked forward. He walked for more than a quarter of an hour on this road, but when he stopped and looked back, he saw that he had only walked less than a hundred feet.
Even if he didn't use any spirit power, he could travel a thousand kilometers in a day with just his body. However, it didn't seem to be of any use here. After walking for a while, he looked back and saw that he was only a few hundred meters away from his previous position.
He didn't think that the results would be even worse. Just as he was puzzled, he suddenly saw someone following behind him. That person walked on the main road as if he was flying. Although his strength was only at Jin Dan's level, his performance was much better than his own.
Not long after, he saw this person walk past him and walk in front of him. Yi Tian's face was filled with suspicion. Just as he was about to chase after him, he found that no matter how fast he chased, the distance between the two of them was increasing.
Without a doubt, this person in front of him was likely to be first place in this selection. After chasing for a while, Yi Tian felt that he wouldn't be able to catch up. He calmed down and began to think.
It seemed that the next half of the journey would be like this. If he couldn't find the key, he wouldn't be able to reach the end.
As he thought about it, he suddenly discovered that there were two more cultivators chasing after him. When the two of them set foot on the main road, the gap between them suddenly widened. This time, it was a Yuanying cultivator and a Jin Dan cultivator. The speed at which the two of them moved was also very different. They were both much faster than him.
At the very least, the two of them had caught up to him in less than half an hour, and then left him behind in the blink of an eye.
As a result, Yi Tian came to the conclusion that it was not a matter of cultivation base, nor was it a matter of Dao Heart. He thought to himself, "Apart from these two things, I can't find any other key points for the time being."
The path beneath his feet was obviously a large-scale array. Now that he was already in the middle of the array, if he wanted to pass, he would either have to break through the array or use his specialty.
Thinking of this, he immediately took out the sundial. Luo Geng leaned against the position of the stars in the night sky and began to measure the formation nodes in the surrounding environment, hoping to find a breakthrough.
Little did he know that while he was doing this, Pavilion Master Xie Lingyun was spying on the whereabouts of many disciples through a large array in the Tai Qing Palace behind the Taiqing Pavilion.
When his gaze swept over Yi Tian, he frowned. He actually discovered that this participant had begun to break the formation. It had to be known that this Heavenly Path's formation was to test the sincerity of the selected cultivators in joining the sect. The more honest a person was, the faster they would walk on this path. On the contrary, those who had crooked thoughts or impure motives would definitely not be able to move forward quickly on this Heavenly Path.
Eight thousand years ago, the main city of the Taiqing Pavilion was lost because the disciples were bewitched by the Devil Race, causing internal strife. That was why the invading Devil Race had the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Ever since the main city was taken back, the Taiqing Pavilion changed its policy of accepting disciples. Those disciples with impure motives and disloyal hearts were all classified as a branch of Shangqing Daoism.
Now, there were only about three hundred inner disciples left in the Taiqing Pavilion, but the loyalty of these people was unquestionable. To put it bluntly, even if the Taiqing Pavilion fell again, these disciples would definitely live and die with the sect.
Now that Xie Lingyun actually discovered that someone was playing tricks under his nose, he couldn't help but feel angry. He stretched out his hand and was about to take out a token to send the Sect Master's order to the Elder of Imparting Arts to deal with this matter. Suddenly, a golden light appeared out of thin air and flew directly in front of him. After three breaths of time, the golden light faded away, revealing a golden Fu Zhao.
Xie Lingyun stretched out his hand to take the Fu Zhao. After carefully reading the contents, he took out the list of cultivators participating in this selection and began to search it.
Not long after, an uncertain look appeared on his face, then his figure disappeared in a flash.
A Body Integration Stage expert was an unattainable existence in the eyes of others. But at this moment, Xie Lingyun came to the Clear Spirit Cave in the back mountain and bowed three times before saying, "Disciple Xie Lingyun requests an audience with the Martial Ancestor."
After ten breaths of time, a reply came from within, "Why are you here instead of watching the selection process?"
"Disciple has something he doesn't understand. Please enlighten me, Martial Ancestor, "Xie Lingyun replied respectfully.
"Speak."
"Martial Ancestor, the Yi Tian mentioned in the Fu Zhao, according to my observation, is a crafty person. He actually didn't think about how to break through the formation, but instead wanted to use the formation's loopholes to pass." Xie Lingyun replied.
"Is that so, then let him be. If he has the ability to walk to the mountain gate, then take him into the sect. There's no need to choose a master for him. Just let him guard the spirit plant garden. Also, he can freely choose from the sect's cultivation methods. As long as he has the ability, let him learn all of them. "
Hearing this, Xie Lingyun's face froze. There were very few people that could be valued by the Martial Ancestor. Moreover, it was said that this person was an ascended cultivator. Could it be that there was something special about him that others didn't see?
Since the Martial Ancestor had already arranged a way out, Xie Lingyun couldn't object anymore. He only bowed three times before turning around and teleporting back to the hall. At this time, through the formation, he saw that Yi Tian had already found a node on the side of the road. He then took out a few one-foot-long awls and tried to break through the node formation.
Fortunately, these awls had been nourished with spirit power, so they could be used without needing to be injected with spirit power. Yi Tian also tried his best to use his Qi Condensation stage spirit power. Now, he didn't hold back. He precisely controlled the spirit power he had and injected it into the Formation Breaking Awls, breaking through the formation node in the air.
Then he tore a two-foot-wide hole in the air and drilled out. After exiting the great array, Yi Tian suddenly felt that the formless force binding him had completely disappeared. Even the restraining force on his wrist was gone.
However, in order to avoid attracting attention, Yi Tian continued to walk down with the strength of a mortal. Not long after, he left the range of the Heavenly Path and arrived in front of the mountain gate's stone steps.
Looking up, at this time, there were already six or seven cultivators walking in front of him to the mountain gate. The disciples in front of the mountain gate checked the Spirit Rings on their hands and exchanged them for an inner sect identity jade card. This way, they could officially enter the sect.
