"That's just a helpless move after the decline of Xinghai Sect!" The old man sighed, "If you just want to inherit the position of the sect leader, you only need to pass the first six levels. Above the seventh level, it all depends on personal choice, but generally, at least all the gods are required.
Only those who are at the level of world genius can pass!"
"Are you at the level of the genius of all heavens and realms?" Except for Ye Qian, who had a strange look in his eyes, everyone else was yearning for him.
That involves background, qualifications, luck, etc., which is the height that ordinary people can achieve.
It's a pity that I always know that I am too far away and do not cultivate slowly and down-to-earth. Maybe one day I will be able to step into that realm.
"Although Xinghai Sect has been destroyed, the rules here cannot be changed." The old man leaned on crutches, slowly approached them, and said, "I have already passed away. At this time, I can only manifest the physical body through this layer of specialness, but
As long as I am alive, the rules must be in accordance with the Xinghai Sect."
"You are the senior, you have the final say." Liao Jun said politely.
Hearing this, everyone looked at him nervously, and the old man approached step by step.
He still didn't open his eyes. He tilted his head and seemed to listen to everyone.
"You don't have to worry." As if he understood everyone's thoughts, the old man comforted, "I don't need you to fight and kill here. You need to make a choice, and the result of this choice will not affect your next action.
At least it won’t hinder access to the next level of the tower.”
The old man's words seemed to reassure everyone, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"And for some people, this is also an opportunity." The old man said, "Okay, I am old and I have a lot of nonsense. I guess you are all tired of hearing it."
Everyone scratched their heads in disbelief.
"In that case, you all should sit down first." The old man's words confused a few people, but everyone followed suit. "Make sure you can all see me, especially my eyes."
After hearing this, everyone lined up in a line, crossing their legs and waiting quietly for the old man's next instruction.
"Okay, you must be mentally prepared, you are about to face an important choice." The old man said.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, before anyone could answer, his eyes slowly opened.
They were a pair of strange, deep eyes like black holes, and the whole eyes were as one.
They are all black, there is no difference between the whites of the eyes and the pupils.
Ye Qian felt that he had fallen into a strange space!
This is an ethereal space, surrounded by the black void.
The top of the head, the bottom of the body, and even the surrounding area are all the same color. You can't tell where the sky is or where the ground is.
But he had a real feeling while sitting on the ground. Everyone else in front of him had disappeared, and only the old man was in front of him.
At this moment, the old man did not close his eyes, but his eyes were no longer scary.
He saw that the old man's eyes had amber pupils, and they were extremely clear, not at all turbid as the elderly should be.
"Ye Qian." After waiting for a while, the old man finally said, "Now you have an opportunity in front of you."
"What opportunity?" Ye Qian asked strangely.
"Are you at the eighth level of the Taoist realm now?" The old man looked at him and said, "And I have an ability that allows people below the Taoist realm to directly enter the next stage of cultivation, so you can enter now.
Get a glimpse of the ninth level of the Tao realm, and even half-step to ask about the realm!"
"Of course, it is impossible to reach the sky and ask questions in one step. It involves laws and you need to understand them yourself!"
It's really tempting. If it's true as he said, the original candidates for the sect leader are all powerful geniuses from all over the world who are at the ninth level of the Peeping Realm, but he can make the candidates for the sect leader directly enter another powerful realm!
Surprised, Ye Qian was also a little more suspicious of the old man's identity and strength. He could actually possess such terrifying abilities. How high was the old man's realm?
Has it reached the terrifying stage of destroying the mighty Xinghai Sect?
And the most terrifying thing is that the old man is only on the seventh floor?
What about going forward, to the eighth or ninth floor?
How terrifyingly powerful would he be?!
If there are so many strong men in a secret trial area of Xinghai Sect, how many strong men will there be in the entire Xinghai Sect? Calculated in this way, Xinghai Sect will still be destroyed, how terrifying is that cross-border power?!
Many questions filled Ye Qian's heart instantly, but he didn't ask. Not only was he afraid of touching the bottom line of what the old man could say, but he was also afraid that once he knew the truth, he would have a clear understanding of where he was.
, thus giving rise to a fearful mentality.
If inner demons are derived from this, the impact on his future cultivation will be unimaginable!
So he didn't ask and didn't dare to ask.
"What are the conditions?"
After thinking for a long time, Ye Qian only asked this question.
He doesn't believe that it's so easy to advance, so what's the point of existence for people who are in seclusion all day long, practicing boringly, and licking blood on the tip of a knife, with their heads in their waistbands, and may die at any time?
"There are no conditions..." the old man said softly, "You only need to make one choice, just one sentence, and I can raise your realm to a higher level."
"Is there really such a thing as pie in the sky?" Ye Qian asked in disbelief.
"Ah, let go of your normal life. Of course it won't happen. You have successfully cleared the six-story tower. This is your chance, the one-story welfare tower. Have you forgotten what I just said?"
"Even so, I still can't believe it."
"Think about it, if you are lucky enough, you might be able to directly step up to the next level and become a truly powerful person at the first level of the Dao Realm!
You have to know that there is a three-story tower behind it. You must have suffered a lot in the past, and you have also seen the strength of half-step Dao Realm.
How majestic that is!
But now, as long as you say a word, you can improve your strength and become a strong man in that realm!"
The old man's voice was tempting in Ye Qian's ears, and it really made Ye Qian's heart move.
But he resisted the urge and extinguished the flame of desire a little.
He kept an eye on it, looked at the old man closely, and asked: "If I choose to advance this time, will it affect my future practice?"
The old man vowed: "Don't worry, it will not have any impact on your future cultivation. This promotion will not only give you the next level of strength, but also stabilize your realm."
"There are no sequelae?" Ye Qian was surprised and asked with exaggerated eyebrow movements.
"Well... there are some minor side effects, but they won't affect you too much. As long as you get over it, you can fully enjoy the powerful abilities brought by the higher level!"
"What kind of sequelae?"
"The short-term sequelae are like a mosquito bite and a pustule that disappears quickly."
"If that's the case, I can think about it."
"Okay, you can think about it, we are not in a hurry, we have plenty of time."
"Well, I've thought about it."
"It's so fast. It's only been three breaths. Are you sure you've thought about it?"
"I've thought about it."
"Have you thought it through?"
"Think it through."
"Okay, so what's your answer?"
"I think it's better to forget it. Any way to advance is not as solid as laying a solid foundation step by step."
The old man seemed very disappointed with this answer. He sighed and finally said: "Okay, you have your own choice."
"The best way to go is not to rely on others. This is also good for you, isn't it?" Ye Qian said.
The old man sighed: "Let me ask you one last time, are you sure you don't want this opportunity?"
"To be honest, I was hesitant just now. God knows what kind of struggle I had in my heart." Ye Qian said, "Who in the world doesn't know that strength is respected? If you have strength, you will have it all. As long as you can defeat others.
, you will be able to win power, wealth, and the respect you deserve in this world. In a world where the jungle is strong, it really only depends on who has the biggest fist. I also thought that if I could really enter the realm of questioning, it would definitely be
It’s a new experience, and it’s also a new starting point.”
"Then why did you give up?"
"Because I'm afraid, I'm afraid that my cultivation will be too easy, and I will forget the hard work of cultivation. I'm afraid that I will no longer have the willpower to practice, and I will stop moving forward, and I will always be trapped in the first level of Peeping the Dao." Ye.
Qian said, "So I choose to give up."
"Although it sounds like you are a very timid person on the surface, everything follows the principle of being down-to-earth, choosing to go step by step, living without any passion, and not taking risks." The old man said, "But I know how much courage you have.
Have such strong perseverance.”
Ye Qian was silent and did not show too much excitement about the praise.
"Most people in this world believe that they are lucky, so in order to choose the easy shortcut, they become a gambler. Little do they know that it is just a reason to escape. Because they are afraid of hard work, they gamble with their own lives. Gambling
A winning person, standing at the top, will talk about his courage and past, fooling the people below him into gambling like him and escaping the boring reality. Those people will also regard his words as classics. Because
He won the bet, he stood at the top, and everything he said was right. But everyone forgot that most people lost the bet, and those people were reduced to withered bones, or maybe better, living on the streets, regardless of
No matter what, it will not attract anyone's attention. This is the key to everyone thinking that they are lucky."
"You are a sensible person, so keep at it." The old man stood up on crutches, approached Ye Qian and patted his shoulder and said, "I believe that one day, you will be able to climb to a height that even you can't imagine."
"I hope so." Ye Qian said.
The old man chuckled and continued: "Since you gave up this opportunity and are unwilling to advance, then go back."
Ye Qian was about to speak, but the surrounding nothingness suddenly twisted, like a whirlpool, and the curtain suddenly switched to another scene...
