Half a day later, Ye Qingtang finally reached the end of the Path to Heaven.
Light shone above the clouds, and a majestic palace stood on top of the clouds. Pavilions, terraces, and green trees formed a shade. With its back facing the sun, it was as if the holy light was shining behind the sect.
If one did not see it with their own eyes, no one would have imagined that the land of the sect was actually situated above the clouds.
No wonder ordinary people did not even know where the sect was.
To be able to build a sect on top of the clouds and accommodate thousands of disciples, one could imagine how frightening the powerful figures in the sect were.
At the end of the Path to Heaven was the main gate of Xuanling Sect. The gate was a few meters tall, and there were huge dragons carved on it. Outside the gate, a middle-aged man in a light blue robe stood in front of the main gate with a few Xuanling Sect disciples following behind him.
Ye Qingtang finished walking the Path to Heaven. Although the clouds seemed to be soft, the place where she landed was extremely stable.
The middle-aged man swept a glance at Ye Qingtang's face and was slightly surprised.
The Path to Heaven was difficult to walk, especially for those who stepped on it for the first time. There was nothing beneath their feet, and they could see that they were hundreds of meters up in the sky. Just this scene alone was enough to make immature people panic. However, he had observed from outside the sect just now that this girl was walking first. Furthermore, her steps were steady, and her expression was at ease without any hint of panic or nervousness.
Just this first impression alone made the middle-aged man rather satisfied.
The disciple standing behind him took a step forward, and before he could say anything, Ye Qingtang automatically handed over the letter written by Mu Su.
The middle-aged man could not help but take another look at Ye Qingtang. After reading the letter, he nodded slightly and gestured for Ye Qingtang to stand at the side.
Ye Qingtang walked very quickly, and most of the people behind her were still struggling. After a long time, Yun Shu was the second to reach the end. Even though he had a calm temperament, he was still extremely cautious along the way and did not dare to speed up at all.
As Yun Shu arrived, Lu Xiuwen and the other candidates also stepped on the Path to Heaven one after another.
However, Ye Qingtang estimated that only about a hundred people actually stepped on the Path to Heaven out of the hundreds of candidates who came.
At least dozens of people were filtered out by the Path to Heaven.
These dozens of people no longer had the possibility of entering the sect. The middle-aged man standing outside the sect looked at the sky, then raised his hand and waved it lightly. The divine light that shone on the mountain peak suddenly dissipated, and the path to heaven that led to the sect disappeared without a trace.
The people who were still struggling along the way were directly sent back to the ground by the golden lotuses. In an instant, the sound of crying and pleading rang out.
The path to the sect had become an extravagant hope.
Ye Qingtang did not have much of a reaction. She had seen such things happen too many times.
"Thank you."
A voice suddenly rang beside Ye Qingtang. Ye Qingtang turned around in confusion, only to see that Yun Shu, whose face was covered in sweat, had walked to her side without her noticing.
"Why are you thanking me?" Ye Qingtang raised her brows and looked at the person from her previous life.
Yun Shu chuckled. "If it wasn't for Miss Ye, I wouldn't have been able to understand the profoundness of this Path to Heaven." Along the way, Yun Shu intentionally locked his gaze on Ye Qingtang in order to calm his mind. Thus, he did not look at the sky beneath his feet, and his state of mind was naturally calmer.
It would indeed save some trouble for the people behind if someone went first. However, no one would mention this during the assessment. After all, they were all competitors in the sect.
