All of Ling Xiao's perseverance, all of his efforts, all of his struggles between life and death, all made sense at this moment.
Ling Xiao's eyes blurred and crystal tears fell, but a smile as innocent as a child appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Jinse, my Jinse! It's so nice to see you again after ten thousand years!"
Ling Xiao muttered to himself, as if he wanted to be immersed in this illusion forever and was unwilling to wake up.
…
The Temple of Time is like a chaotic world. There are only nine mysterious palaces, one higher than the other, exuding a majestic and mysterious atmosphere.
In the first palace, many people appeared in this palace after walking out of the Road of Self-examination.
Ten hours had passed and there were already several thousand people in the palace, all of whom had walked out of the Road of Self-Searching.
Long Aotian, Long Zhantian and others had already walked out, and at this moment they all showed extremely anxious looks in their eyes.
"Why hasn't my cousin come out yet? The time is almost up!" Long Aotian said with some concern.
The road to self-examination represents the firmness of one's heart for martial arts, and represents one's state of mind. The stronger the state of mind, the firmer one's heart for martial arts, and the shorter the time it takes to come out of it.
Just like the heir of the Temple of War God, it only took him a quarter of an hour to walk out of the Road of Self-examination, and he was also the first person to pass it.
The Buddha's son Kashyapa and the Green Emperor were only a few breaths behind the heirs of the Temple of War God, and their speed was also extremely fast!
But Zhao Ritian was a surprise as he was the fourth one to leave Wenxin Road.
Jian Wushuang, Duguxue, Qingyun and Zhu Biao also followed Jiaye and Qingdi and embarked on the path of self-examination.
What surprised everyone was that Wuliang Taoist and Long Aotian, like Jian Wushuang and others, walked out of the Temple of War God in less than two quarters of an hour.
If Ling Xiao were here, he would definitely know that Wuliang Taoist was hiding his true abilities. His real strength must be more than that. Wuliang Taoist's state of mind is probably even more terrifying than Ling Xiao's. It is a state of mind where nothing exists outside of the heart, and one plays with the world without being stained by dust.
And Long Aotian has a pure heart, so his speed is also extremely fast.
As for Long Zhantian, Li Jingming, Lin Hui, Yue Shen and Feng Nu, they were all chosen ones by heaven. It took them less than an hour to pass the Road of Self-examination.
With this calculation, the top ten people who passed the Road of Questioning the Heart first are revealed. They are: the descendant of the Temple of War God, the Buddhist son Kasyapa, the Green Emperor, Zhao Ritian, Jian Wushuang, Dugu Xue, Qingyun, Zhu Biao, the Unscrupulous Taoist, and Long Aotian!
What is surprising is that Duan Wuji, who was ranked fifth on the Qingyun List, took three hours to leave the Road of Self-Reflection, and Murong Xuantian, who was ranked seventh on the Qingyun List, also took two hours.
Like Leng Youyou, Long Zhantian and others, it took them nearly an hour to pass the level.
Many people speculated that Duan Wuji must have been slapped in the face by Ling Xiao before, which affected his state of mind, otherwise it would not have taken him so long.
What surprised everyone the most was that Ling Xiao has not come out yet!
Before, outside the Temple of Time, Ling Xiao slapped Duan Wuji twice so easily. Many people believed that Ling Xiao at least possessed a fighting power comparable to that of the Green Emperor, and he should have come out long ago.
But ten hours had passed and Ling Xiao still hadn't appeared.
You know, anyone who hasn't passed the Road of Self-examination after twelve hours will be eliminated.
Even Ma Junjie, Xiong Xiaohei and Hu Zi had good aptitude and they came out of seclusion in about three hours.
"Ling Xiao must have encountered some situation on the Path of Self-Searching. Don't worry about him, he will definitely come out soon!" The unscrupulous Taoist said comfortingly with a gleam in his eyes.
He knew that Ling Xiao's determination in martial arts was extremely firm, and the only flaw was Jinse.
Could it be that Ling Xiao met Jinse on the Road of Self-Searching
I'm afraid this is the only explanation.
“Hehe, what a bullshit genius? He hasn’t passed the Road of Self-examination yet. His state of mind is really unbearable. I think even if he passes the Road of Self-examination, he will definitely be eliminated in the second level!” Duan Wuji finally found a reason to attack Ling Xiao and sneered sarcastically.
"Brother Duan is right! Although one can pass the Road of Self-examination within one day, one must pass it within three hours to be eligible to challenge the second level! Even if Ling Xiao comes out, he will have no chance! This kind of aptitude is really too poor!" Murong Xuantian also sneered.
"What are you two bastards talking about? My cousin will definitely come out, and he will pass the second level, the third level, and even the ninth level! Don't look down on others, you two bastards!"
There was a hint of anger in Long Aotian's eyes, and he glared at Duan Wuji and Murong Xuantian and said.
"Boy, don't be so stubborn! Ling Xiao has brute force, but his state of mind is not up to par. I'm afraid he will never be able to achieve the supreme state in his life! Not to mention the second level, I bet Ling Xiao will definitely be eliminated in the second level!"
Duan Wuji sneered.
Seeing that Long Aotian was about to go berserk, Wuliang Daoist quickly stopped him, looked at Duan Wuji and said, "Are you so sure that Ling Xiao will be eliminated in the second round? Then do you dare to make a bet with us?"
"What are you betting on?" Duan Wuji sneered.
"Let's bet that Ling Xiao can pass the second level! If Ling Xiao can pass the second level, you will kneel down and yell 'I'm an idiot' three times. Do you dare?"
The unscrupulous Taoist smiled faintly.
Although Long Aotian didn't know what Wuliang Daoist was up to, he couldn't be weak at the moment, and sneered: "That's right, you are an idiot, you don't dare, right?"
"What are you afraid of? Okay! I'll make a bet with you! But if Ling Xiao can't pass the second level, you two will kneel down and call me grandpa three times. Do you dare?"
Duan Wuji sneered.
In all previous Heavenly Chosen Conferences, only those who passed the first level, the Heart Test, within three hours could pass the second level. Even if there were exceptions, they could at least pass it within five hours! Now that ten hours had passed, there was absolutely no way Ling Xiao could pass the second level!
"Hahaha... Okay! But in order to prevent anyone from cheating, how about we ask Lord General of Time to be a witness?"
The Wuliang Taoist smiled faintly, looked at the God of Time above the palace and said.
The God of Time was originally sitting there, as if he was practicing, and no one dared to disturb him. After hearing the words of the unscrupulous Taoist, he slowly opened his eyes, with a strange light in his eyes.
"Okay! I'll testify for you!"
The God of Time said lightly.
“Hahaha… You’re definitely going to lose! Forget about the second level, I don’t think Ling Xiao can even pass the first level. Just wait for you to kneel down and call me grandpa!”
Duan Wuji sneered.
"Really? We'll see!"
The unscrupulous Taoist said with a smile, without any nervousness.
