Ch. 49 - A Step Equal to Twelve!

Lu Yao stopped along with Ji Yuenian with a calm expression.

Ji Yuenian's eyes were a little odd. He turned his head to look at the deer demon who had been following him, and said, "Why does fellow Daoist keep following me?"

"Do I?" Lu Yao smiled and said, "Daoist friend misunderstood, I just happened to walk the Stone Steps as well."

Shaking his head slightly, Ji Yuenian simply stopped looking at him, but stepped out one step at a time, reaching the 120th stone step.

Everyone who was had stopped on the 119th stone step looked at Ji Yuenian with envy in their eyes.

Once one passed this step, he could be regarded as someone who had cleared the entrance examination having met the required criteria, at least he would be listed as a handyman disciple of the Luoxia Mountains, and be able to ignite his Heart Fire, thus truly entering the long road of cultivation.

Every step he took, the Profound Energy in Ji Yuenian's Profound Sea became consolidated, and when he reached the 160th stone step, the Profound Energy escaping from his body had almost condensed into substance!

"Among the hundreds of thousands of beings who participate in the sect entrance examination each time, only a few hundred can be directly listed as disciples of the Outer Sect, that is to say, only one person can be selected from a thousand people."

Lu Yao followed up at some point, and spoke softly beside Ji Yuenian.

Ji Yuenian's complexion became more and more strange, and he said, "If you have something to say, fellow Daoist, just say it directly, you need not be so secretive."

Lu Yao was silent for a moment, then said, "There is a possibility that one in a thousand can directly enter as the Outer Sect discipline. However, it is not easy to have a superior bloodline which is only present in one among the hundred thousand. Please rest assured, I have no malicious intentions."

Ji Yuenian laughed and said, "I have an extremely ordinary human bloodline, can fellow Daoist not see it?"

"Fellow Daoist, don't kid, you have the aura of the origin of mountain ghosts in your soul," Lu Yao frowned, but his tone was very assuring, "However, mountain ghosts are only a kind of spiritual beings. They are far from reaching the strict requirements of the superior bloodline, which has caused me to doubt."

Ji Yuenian shook his head and said, "I have told you the truth, believe it or not, it's up to you."

Having said that, he continued to ascend the the stone steps.

Lu Yao looked at Ji Yuenian's back, thought for a moment, and followed again.

If there was no accident, any superior bloodline wielder would soar into the sky within the Luoxia Mountains. If one befriends them before they rise, there might be unexpected gains in the future.

180th stone step.

190th stone step.

200th step!

There were fewer and fewer people around Ji Yuenian, but his footsteps had never faltered.

The pressure he felt in his soul was also getting stronger and stronger, but for him, it was still acceptable for the time being.

Ji Yuenian knew a little about his so-called superior bloodline.

Before Zhao Yinyue was about to die, she gave up the chance to reincarnate and poured all her memories of her true spirit into the depths of Ji Yuenian's true spirit, which made him much wiser than others since he was a child, and even knew some of her several secrets which were not known by others.

For example, the root cause of her bullying in the Zhao family was due to her ghost origin.

Regarding the rumors about her in the ancient city of Taichu, it seemed that these years there was a "Ghost who had consummated with the old head of Zhao Family", but was that really the case?

Ji Yuenian laughed, and his chaotic mind turned calm again. With a flick of his sleeves, he stepped into the 220th stone step!

At the same time, a blazing white light bloomed on the identity cloud talisman surrounding him, indicating that he had crossed the threshold of being directly listed as a disciple of the Outer Sect!

This cloud symbol was automatically condensed after passing the second level. It recorded the names of the participants, and after all tests were completed, this identity cloud talisman would be used to determine the final ranking!

There were also very few people who didn't want to reveal their identities, and instead wrote a sign on the cloud talisman, etc., but if they did this, the ultimate negative impact might affect them.

The real name was extremely important to the living beings who could practice cultivation, and it was even related to the illusory destiny. If the person participating in the assessment had no problem in the head, under normal circumstances, no false name would be entered in the cloud talisman.

There were still countless creatures between the 200th stone steps and the 219th stone steps. .

They looked up at Ji Yuenian and the two who easily crossed the 220th stone steps.

They were just a few steps away, but it made them depressed.

After reaching the 221st stone step, the pressure increased sharply!

Ji Yuenian could clearly perceive that his soul had been subjected to unparalleled tyrannical pressure, making every step he took very difficult. The pressure seemed to be given by the clouds on both sides of the stone steps!

Lu Yao was a little slower than him, and at that time, he was also on the 221st stone step.

Resisting the terrifying pressure that filled his body, Ji Yuenian took five steps one after another!

226th step!

The breeze blew up and brushed his cheeks softly, but Ji Yuenian almost fell on the stone steps and flew out!

Looking up, there were very few people in front of him, and there were only less than a hundred people as far as one could see.

The sound of thick gasping filtered to his ears. Ji Yuenian turned his head to the side, and a rowdy teenager with red eyes was leaping towards the stone steps in front of him!

There were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps in the stone steps.

The difficulty of the first five hundred steps had nothing to do with the cultivation realm. Even ordinary people had the possibility to come out on top.

When the boy walked by Ji Yuenian's side, he could clearly perceive the unrivaled determination in his heart, even though there was blood in his eyes, he never stopped!

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, it's really embarrassing that the two of us were overtaken by an ordinary person."

Ji Yuenian glanced at him, and he already knew that Lu Yao was a talkative person, so he didn't get angry. Instead, he regained his concentration and walked towards the stone steps ahead.

230th step!

235th step!

The huge pressure swept in from all directions, almost throwing Ji Yuenian!

The mortal teen also stopped on the steps here and roared, "I can!"

Having said that, this young man actually took another step forward!

Boom!

The violent storm swept up, directly bringing the boy into the clouds, as his silhouette disappeared.

Walking up to the 236th stone step with a mortal body, this young man's talent could be called astonishing!

At this moment, Lu Yao was not as relaxed as he was previously, and he needed to pause before taking each step.

When Ji Yuenian was resting at the 235th order, he was still at the 230th order.

But after a while, Lu Yao's pupils shrink suddenly. He raised his head and looked straight ahead, and whispered, "How is this possible!"

In his line of sight, Ji Yuenian, who was not far away, jumped up directly, leaping over the twelve stone steps and landed directly on the 247th stone step.

At that time, in front of Ji Yuenian, there were only less than twenty people left!
