Yi Tian was filled with anger as he ran through the path leading to the orchard. The Goddess of Bliss, Le Tongxuan, had dismissed him with just a few words. It was hard to be a good person these days. Even if he helped her, he would not gain anything. Fortunately, he was not implicated.
It took him fifteen minutes to rush back to the three-way junction. Yi Tian estimated that he had used around four to six hours to help Le Tongxuan retrieve the treasure.
When he returned, he saw movement on the path leading to the orchard. Someone must have passed through. Yi Tian's lead had now fallen behind.
After smiling helplessly, Yi Tian had no choice but to catch up with them with large strides.
He poured all his spirit energy into Gale Flash. Yi Tian walked for forty-five minutes before he heard the sound of flowing water not far ahead. He guessed that there should be an underground river.
After walking out of the path, he saw an underground river that was ten feet wide. However, what flowed in the river was not water, but lava. This was clearly an underground lava river. There were four people standing by the river. They were Mo Mingjun, Meng Xin, Lu Qihao, and Xiao Linhang.
Seeing that Yi Tian, who had narrowly passed, was the fifth to arrive, the four of them were puzzled. Meng Xin was happy. At least he had help here.
When Yi Tian walked out of the path, the lights on both sides of the path were extinguished. This meant that all the people who passed the second stage had arrived. The others should have been teleported out.
Yi Tian saw that Meng Xin, Lu Qihao, and Mo Mingjun were discussing something. Xiao Linhang, on the other hand, looked like it had nothing to do with him. He stared at the lava river for a long time.
There were two ways to cross the river. One was to hang a single iron chain on the river, connecting the two sides. There was also a reef that was three inches above the surface of the lava river. Looking along the reef, there was a winding path that extended to the other side.
Seeing Yi Tian walk over, Meng Xin went up to greet him. "I thought you went over first."
"There were some trivial matters that bothered me, so I took care of them. It's all good now."
Meng Xin understood and said, "We also just arrived. After you left, Le Tongxuan followed us. Each of us spent nearly four hours to pass the test."
After listening, Yi Tian realized that the Spiritual Sense stairs were definitely a test for those who had cultivated the Bright Sun Soul Refining Secret Art. He didn't expect that even Nangong Jie couldn't pass. He didn't know what had happened.
The three people in front of him were all in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, so they should have relied on their cultivation to reach this stage. Xiao Linhang must have used some unknown means to be able to reach this stage.
The four of them looked at the two paths separately. They had some misgivings in their hearts, so no one rushed to try it first. Falling into the lava river was no joke.
With his previous experience, Yi Tian did not waste any more time. Standing on the shore, he once again summoned Fat Dog to lead the way, while he set off after three breaths. One man and one fox sprinted along the small path of the reef.
The four people on the shore were also stunned. Since there was someone to act as the vanguard, then the people behind could follow the order step by step. After half a quarter of an hour, the five people passed through the small path of the reef.
After reaching the opposite shore, Yi Tian didn't wait for the people behind him and directly strode forward. After passing through a narrow passage that was only wide enough for one person, he once again came to a ten feet wide corridor. The lights on the walls on both sides were all lit up.
Walking on the road, Yi Tian looked ahead and could only see a dark passage leading to an unknown place. After taking a deep breath, Yi Tian could only walk forward at a normal speed.
The four people behind him also arrived. Seeing Yi Tian slowly walking in front, they didn't say anything and directly followed. The five people walked slowly for half an hour, but they didn't see any signs of an exit.
No one stopped. If they stopped here, they could only rely on the jade token to teleport out. This also meant that this trip to the Mysterious Yang Cave ended in failure. Everyone was proud and arrogant, so no one was willing to give up.
After the five people walked for a while, they saw a corner in front of them. Yi Tian pointed at Yi Tian. The latter nodded with a face full of excitement and then quickly followed behind Yi Tian.
After turning the corner, the five people saw a door about fifty feet in front of them. It seemed to be the exit of the passage. Before they could be happy, a stone door suddenly fell from the corner behind them, sealing off the path behind them.
Their hearts sank. The five people realized that this time's test had come, but they didn't know what kind of test it was. The five people walked side by side in this corridor. Before they walked a hundred feet, a pressure comparable to that of a Jin Dan cultivator suddenly pounced on them.
The five people subconsciously stood in place. After opening their protective barrier, they felt slightly better. Before they could be happy, they suddenly heard a sound coming from the stone wall behind them.
Looking back, Yi Tian's hair stood on end. Rows of spikes appeared on the wall. Then, the entire wall slowly pushed forward, squeezing the space between the five people.
Seeing this, Yi Tian directly took a step forward. He stared at the spiritual pressure in front of him and walked forward. This path was clearly comparable to the lava passage. He could only bravely walk forward without hesitation.
The other four people were also shocked. They followed Yi Tian's example and walked forward while resisting the spiritual pressure. Who would have thought that just as Yi Tian walked past the marked distance of 60 Zhang, the spiky stone wall behind him suddenly sped up. The four people who fell behind immediately cursed loudly.
In any case, he didn't care about what the people behind him thought. Yi Tian just walked forward at a normal speed. After crossing half the distance, the spiritual pressure gradually increased to that of a mid-stage Jin Dan cultivator. Yi Tian had experienced this feeling before with Yin Lixing, so he didn't care. He took out two mid-grade spirit stones and held them in his hand. He walked while recovering his spiritual power.
At this time, the difference in strength between the five people was reflected. Mo Mingjun followed closely behind Yi Tian. The two maintained a distance of thirty feet, while Meng Xin fell behind. What surprised Yi Tian the most was that Xiao Linhang was able to follow behind Mo Mingjun even though he was only in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.
After continuing to walk forward for ten breaths, Yi Tian felt that the spiritual pressure in front of him had increased. The whole passage was about sixty to seventy percent complete.
Suddenly, he heard Meng Xin shout from behind, "I can't hold on any longer." Yi Tian turned around and saw that he had activated the jade tablet with his right hand. His whole body was wrapped in a white light and instantly turned into a spot of light.
The remaining four people didn't say anything. Everyone only saw the stone wall behind them pushing forward at a normal speed.
Next, the four of them also opened the protective shield to the maximum and continued to move forward under the spiritual pressure. When Yi Tian walked about forty feet, he suddenly felt that the spiritual pressure in front of him also contained spiritual pressure. After suffering a two-pronged test, Yi Tian also had to slow down. The few people behind him also narrowed their eyes, knowing that there was something strange in front. Then, the three of them also felt the spiritual pressure at the same time.
After stopping in place for three breaths, Yi Tian began to move forward again. Mo Mingjun, who was in second place, opened his eyes wide and looked at Yi Tian in front of him and the two people behind him with an incredible look.
Xiao Linhang took out a half-foot pomelo leaf. After making a gesture with both hands, he put the pomelo leaf on his forehead and continued to move forward.
Lu Qihao, who was standing at the end, just shook his head with a wry smile. He took out the jade tablet and activated it, then directly teleported out. Soon, Xiao Linhang walked up, passed Mo Mingjun, and went straight forward.
Yi Tian, who was walking in first place, also had a bitter face. In the last five feet, every step he took, the spiritual pressure and spiritual pressure he endured became stronger. After five breaths, he heard a 'whoosh' sound from behind. It seemed that someone couldn't bear it and activated the jade tablet to teleport out.
Having no time to look back, Yi Tian used the Mysterious Yang Fire Armor again. After a three-inch flame wrapped around his body, the Bright Yang Spirit Refining Art in the middle of his forehead began to operate. Yi Tian used the 'Phantom Spirit Thorn' that he had painstakingly cultivated in recent years and suddenly felt that the pressure was a lot lighter. This time, he directly rushed toward the door, and his speed began to increase.
Xiao Linhang, who was walking behind, saw that the person in front of him had sped up, so he had to grit his teeth and move forward. The stone wall behind was getting closer and closer. Xiao Linhang had to take out the tortoise shell from his storage bracelet and use his right hand to enlarge the tortoise shell behind him.
When Yi Tian crossed the finish line, the stone wall also suddenly accelerated. Xiao Linhang also held the jade tablet in his hand, just in case. To Yi Tian's surprise, the thorns on the stone wall didn't pierce the tortoise shell. Instead, they pushed Xiao Linhang over.
After ten breaths, Xiao Linhang also passed the finish line. To be precise, he was pushed out of the finish line by the stone wall. After all, he didn't rely on his own strength to finish the whole journey. Xiao Linhang also lost his balance and almost fell, but he was helped up by Yi Tian.
Xiao Linhang turned his head to look at the sallow-faced cultivator in front of him with lingering fear. Suddenly, he heard the other party say, "Is Brother Xiao's skill limited to this? This is much worse than the time in Purgatory Valley. "
Xiao Linhang turned his head to look and blurted out, "It really is you. I always feel that you are a little familiar, but I just can't remember."
With a hiss, Yi Tian tore off the human skin mask and revealed his true face with a smile, "Brother Xiao, we haven't seen each other for many years. How have you been?"
Looking at Yi Tian's calm face, Xiao Linhang also said with assurance, "You and I are really fated. I didn't expect to meet under such circumstances. It's really fortunate."
Then Yi Tian pointed to the entrance of the passage, meaning to go there. After Xiao Linhang nodded in response, Yi Tian helped him slowly walk over.
In the last part of the passage corridor just now, under the dual pressure of Divine Sense and spiritual pressure, Yi Tian felt uncomfortable all over. After walking to the finish line, his head was still a little dizzy. On the contrary, Xiao Linhang did not have much discomfort in his Divine Sense except for a little spiritual power overdraft.
After walking out, the two came to an orchard. Inside was a fiery red fruit tree with more than thirty fruits on it. Each fruit exuded red spiritual power.
After seeing it, Xiao Linhang smiled and said, "Profound Sun Fruit Tree, we finally arrived."
Yi Tian also nodded, then he was about to help Xiao Linhang to the side, then he was ready to go forward to pick the fruit. Before he took a few steps, he heard Xiao Linhang say, "Brother Yi, this Profound Sun Fruit must be stored in an ice jade box. You have to use a very strong fire or wood attribute spell to pick it."
Looking at the fruit tree, it was about the thickness of a bucket, but as soon as he got close to the fruit tree, he felt a heat wave sweeping across his body, so Yi Tian had to stand still and open the protective shield.
Seeing that the treasure was in front of him and he couldn't do anything, Yi Tian was also anxious. He turned around and asked Xiao Linhang, "Do you have any way to pick the fruit?"
"This is the sect's training ground of the Profound Yang Sect. It's not easy for us to get here. Whether or not we can obtain the Profound Yang fruit will depend on our luck. However, I feel that you are not an ordinary person. Maybe you will have a way."
After looking at Xiao Linhang, Yi Tian just said flatly, "How do you know that I have a way?"
"Hehe, my Heavenly Fortune Sect has a secret divination technique. This Profound Yang Fruit is destined to be with me. This time, I have divined that I will definitely be able to obtain one. It seems that this hope has fallen on you." Xiao Linhang said with a smirk.
In fact, Yi Tian already had an idea, but seeing that there were people next to him, he couldn't say it. It was better for fewer people to know his secret. He turned his head and replied, "I can't do anything. It's up to you." After saying that, he stepped back and sat on the ground without making a sound.
Xiao Linhang was not annoyed when he saw it. He took out three jade boxes with cold air and a communication talisman and handed them to Yi Tian. Then, he took out the jade tablet and activated it to teleport out. Before leaving, he said to Yi Tian deeply, "I only need one. I won't tell anyone about you. Don't worry, Yi Tian."
Hearing that the other party could actually reveal his identity, Yi Tian also nodded helplessly. After going out, he would find a chance to have a good chat with him.
