In the sky thousands of miles away from Qingyang City.
Ye Ruxue, who was standing behind Su Chen, sized him up and said softly, “You are different from yesterday.”
“Oh? Is that so?”
Su Chen chuckled and said casually, “Miss Ye, can you tell the difference?”
Ye Ruxue’s expression gradually turned serious as she said earnestly, “You’ve become stronger than yesterday!”
Su Chen was startled. He shook his head slightly and said indifferently, “Cultivators fight for their lives. Only by becoming stronger can they survive better.”
“But you’re different from them…”
Ye Ruxue thought to herself.
However, she didn’t say so in the end. After taking a long look at Su Chen’s back, she looked elsewhere and said softly, “This is it. Let’s go down.”
“Emm.”
Su Chen nodded his head with a calm expression. Then, he controlled the long sword under his feet for the landing.
Not long after, Su Chen put away his sword, and the two of them arrived at an empty plain.
There was a patch of scrub, and the surroundings were barren.
At first glance, it was hard to imagine that there would be a Saint’s opportunity in such a barren place.
According to the memories of her previous life, Ye Ruxue took two steps forward to a small hill and used a hand seal.
Buzz…
Mysterious runes flew out from her palm.
Every shining rune was fixed on the small hill, creating an inexplicable law of heaven and earth in coordination with each other.
“Boom!”
As the last rune fell, the void above the small hill collapsed.
A three-meter-tall crack appeared in front of Ye Ruxue, wide enough for several people to pass at one time.
Through the crack, she could vaguely see the scene inside.
Behind the crack was a blood-red but desolate land. There were countless towering trees there, but they had all withered and died.
“Young Master Su, let’s go inside.”
Ye Ruxue called out and stepped into the crack.
As soon as she stepped into the crack, dense spiritual energy washed over her.
Although this place was completely silent, the density of spiritual energy was still incomparable to the outside world.
Ye Ruxue’s beautiful purple eyes rolled as she looked at a mountain not far away.
When she saw that the palace above was intact, she could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Even though many things did not go according to the memories of her previous life after her rebirth, fortunately, this opportunity had not been taken by someone else before her.
“You seem to be very familiar with this place…”
Su Chen’s voice came from behind Ye Ruxue.
His remark made Ye Ruxue’s heart tighten, and her body tensed up as well. She hurriedly explained, “How could that be? It must be Young Master Su’s misconception. This is also my first time here, but 1 heard some descriptions of this opportunity when I knew where it was.”
“Really?”
Su Chen took a step forward and stood beside Ye Ruxue. There was an odd look in his eyes as he stared into her eyes with a half-smile.
Ye Ruxue and Su Chen’s eyes met.
The two of them stared at each other for more than ten seconds before Su Chen shook his head with a smile. He looked away and said calmly, “Alright, I believe you.”
Ye Ruxue heaved a sigh of relief.
If she were to hold Su Chen’s gaze for a few more seconds, she would probably be defeated first.
It was because Su Chen’s charm would disturb her mind.
Ye Ruxue patted her chest lightly, turned around, and walked toward the mountain not far away. As she walked, she said, “The formation outside will always exist until we leave. In order to avoid being discovered by others, we should hurry up and look for the opportunity.”
“Emm.”
Su Chen gave a nod and followed Ye Ruxue towards the mountain not far away.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the foot of the mountain.
This mountain was only a few hundred meters high.
There was only one path up the mountain, and the steps were covered with white jade.
On both sides of the steps, thick vines like dragons were intertwined with each other.
However, these vines had already lost their original color. All of them were dead gray.
At the side.
Ye Ruxue didn’t hesitate when she arrived at the steps. She took light steps up the stairs.
“Hmm…”
Su Chen, who took in this scene, had a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Generally, when normal people entered a secret land, they would determine whether the place was safe or not instead of directly looking for an opportunity.
However, Ye Ruxue seemed to be very familiar with this as she walked up the white jade steps decisively.
If there was some kind of killing formation on the white jade steps, Ye Ruxue would probably be dead by now.
“Is she ignorant, or did she know that there was no danger in this secret land?”
Su Chen narrowed his eyes and stared at Ye Ruxue, who was walking towards the top of the mountain.
“D*mn it! How could 1 forget such an important detail!”
Ye Ruxue, who had just stepped onto the white jade steps, stopped in her tracks and slapped her forehead in frustration.
She knew that she was too careless.
Because she had been here once, she knew very well that there was no danger on the steps, so she walked up directly.
However, the problem was that she told Su Chen that it was her first time here.
Stepping up the stairs so rashly was obviously not logical.
Aiiy normal person would be able to tell.
“Young Master Su, you can rest assured. There’s nothing dangerous about these stairs. When I learned about this opportunity, I already knew about everything in this small world. The stairs below my feet are the Self Questioning Stairs, and there’s no danger.”
Ye Ruxue explained.
As for how much Su Chen would believe, it all depended on the will of the heavens.
“Self Questioning Stairs?”
Su Chen muttered softly without much doubt.
He lifted his foot and stepped on the white jade steps.
Buzz…
The moment his foot landed on the step, a huge pressure surged from all directions.
This pressure was not only a shock to the physical body but also to the soul.
“Young Master Su, try to clear your mind. This will reduce a lot of pressure on you.”
Ye Ruxue looked over her shoulder at Su Chen and reminded him.
Although she already knew the method to pass the test, limited by her own strength, every step up was extremely difficult for her.
After all, in her previous life, she was in the God Altar Realm when she came!
But this time, she was only a Level Nine QI Gathering Realm cultivator.
Moreover, she was the most ordinary Level Nine QI Gathering Realm cultivator, and her cultivation was not even as strong as Liu Yang’s.
“Is this a test of one’s mind? However, it doesn’t seem to have any effect on me…”
Su Chen stood where he was and pondered for a moment. In the end, he attributed everything to the fact that he was a transmigrator and had entered the Forbidden Stage.
He lifted his foot and walked up several steps in a row, following behind Ye Ruxue leisurely..
