"What? Qian Long, you bastard dare to insult my cave?!"
Hong Dongmo and Guan Hu, when they heard Qian Long's sarcasm, they suddenly widened their eyes and shouted angrily. In the two caves, indeed, none of the cultivators entered the first-level Star Dou Secret Realm.
"Insult?!" Qian Long frowned, "Are you two old bastards worthy of my insult?!"
Qian Long's face was full of disdain.
"Hehe, everyone is the honor of the cave master, with a noble status. Why do you do this just for the cultivators below?!" Hou Fanglei felt the smell of gunpowder in the room, and thought that if he kept quiet, the four of them could really do it. When they started fighting, he immediately laughed and persuaded Hou Fanglei, saying that he is the guide of Tianwaitian, and he can often get in touch with the master of the palace, Mr. Shuiwu, so even the master of the thirty-six caves is very polite to Hou Fanglei.
Seeing that Hou Fanglei had spoken, the four of them also took a deep breath, and stopped talking one by one, but they let out cold snorts.
"So what if you entered that level of Star Dou secret realm, it's not like you can't step into the realm of gods!" Guan Hu finally couldn't help but said another sentence.
However, Zhong Yuanyuan and Qian Long had already closed their eyes and immersed themselves in their cultivation, so they ignored him.
In the second year, there were more than eight years to less than nine years before the closure of the secret realm.
"Whoosh!"
In this room of the United Front Work Institute, the atmosphere suddenly fluctuated. All the cave masters in the room opened their eyes together and looked at a figure in the middle of the room.
Sure enough, Hou Fanglei returned to the room. At this time, there were already six cave masters in the room.
Before waiting for everyone to ask questions, Hou Fanglei said with a smile, "There is not much change in the first-level secret realm. Yang Qiuyun and a few others still cannot climb to the ninth step of the ladder. However, Xia Yan practitioners have already reached the ladder." On the third step."
Hearing this, Zhong Yuan's expression froze, and then he laughed twice.
"What's the situation? Why did it take ninety years for the first step of the ladder, and only one year for the second step?!" Hong Dongmo immediately frowned sullenly.
The more Xia Yan made progress, the more uncomfortable he was of course. He very much hoped that Xia Yan could completely stop at his current achievements, and that he would not be able to break through the lifespan of an ordinary spirit emperor until he died of old age. Even a ninth-level spirit emperor would only have 20,000 years. Even if you take some life-extending treasures, it is difficult to increase your lifespan by a lot.
"Xia Yan is always unexpected!" Qian Long also said with a smile.
The other cave masters had also heard about Xia Yan's situation in the Star Dou Secret Realm before, and now they heard the latest news brought back by Hou Fanglei, and they were all slightly moved.
Even they couldn't figure out why it took ninety years for a cultivator to pass the first ladder, but it took only one year to pass the second ladder.
"Damn it!" Hong Dongmo gritted his teeth fiercely, and a stern light flashed in his eyes.
In the third year... Xia Yan entered the fourth step of the ladder.
In the fourth year... Xia Yan entered the fifth step of the ladder.
In the fifth year... Xia Yan entered the sixth step of the ladder.
…
In the seventh year, it was less than four years before the closure of the Star Dou Secret Realm.
In the first-level Star Dou Secret Territory, Yang Qiuyun and others are still trying to climb the ninth step of the ladder. There is not much time now, and it is only less than four years before the closure of the secret realm.
As a white figure leaped down the ladder, the cheeks of Yang Qiuyun and the others froze slightly.
In the past few years, they have witnessed an incredible miracle. The miracle is that every year Xia Yan spends in the secret territory, he climbs to a new level, which makes people go crazy.
Wan Luo and Miao Meimei are alright, they are just confused, a little incomprehensible and incomprehensible. But Yang Qiuyun and Song Zhiming couldn't calm down anymore. And the black-robed cultivator in Shanghe Cave has a tendency to go crazy. Up to now, he has not been able to successfully ascend the eighth step of the ladder, and every attempt has ended in failure. Xia Yan, on the other hand, has already flown down from the seventh step of the ladder, and the next step is to try to climb the eighth step like him. Watching Xia Yan's white figure fall, a ray of jealousy flashed in the eyes of the black-robed cultivator.
Just a few years ago, he was still laughing at Xia Yan. But now, Xia Yan's progress has caught up with him. Moreover, judging from how Xia Yan climbed the first few ladder worlds, it is likely that Xia Yan will not be too strenuous when climbing the eighth step.
"It's another year!"
After flying down, Xia Yan's consciousness quickly penetrated into the Lingluo ring, looked at the time recording crystal, his eyes flashed, and he exhaled slightly and said.
"Next, let's start climbing the eighth ladder!"
Xia Yan greeted Wan Luo and Miao Meimei, asked about the progress of the two, and then flew up again, easily ascending to the eighth step of the ladder. Seeing this scene, everyone in the secret realm let out a gulp sound, some were envious, some were jealous, and some hated.
And Hou Fanglei received the guide, and he had just arrived at the first-level secret realm at this time and saw Xia Yan stepping on the eighth ladder and entering the eighth-level world.
"What the hell!" Yang Qiuyun muttered in his heart, his eyes focused on Xia Yan who was on the eighth ladder.
…
"Tsk tsk... really..." Even Hou Fanglei couldn't help but secretly shook his head in admiration.
Hou Fanglei brought back news again and again, and more and more cave masters gathered in the room of the United Front Work Institute. After ninety-seven years, there are already more than twenty cave masters in this room.
As for Xia Yan's progress on the ladder, everyone gradually became numb.
From the first ninety years of immobility, to the next year when I set foot on a ladder, no one can explain clearly the situation here. Perhaps the Supreme Elders of Tianwaitian or the Master of Water Mist can understand the reason, but they, cave masters, are not qualified to go to Tianwaitian to ask the Supreme Elders about these things.
"Tell me, can this kid Xia Yan from Xianfeng Cave step on the ninth ladder next year and enter the world of nine ladders?!" A cave master narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile.
"I think there is a possibility that Xia Yan has been in the world of the first ladder for 90 years, and every year after that, he is stepping on a higher ladder. Now, he has already stepped on the world." The eighth ladder, next year, Xia Yan is likely to be the first cultivator to step up the ninth ladder among the twenty cultivators who entered the Star Dou Secret Realm this time." Another purple-robed cave master nodded, speculating Said the tone.
"Hmph, I don't think it's very likely. The difficulty of the first eighth world of the ladder is simply not comparable to that of the ninth world. If a cultivator steps into the world of the ninth ladder, it is almost certain that he will be able to step into the world of the ninth ladder." It is already in the realm of gods. But the possibility of gods appearing in the first eight steps of the ladder is extremely low." Some cave masters shook their heads.
"Regardless of whether Xia Yan can step into the ninth step of the ladder in the secret realm, he is indeed a veritable genius cultivator. Zhong Yuan, you are really lucky. Xia Yan has a limitless future!" A relatively young man The big cave master looked at Zhong Yuan and said meaningfully.
Everyone can understand the hidden meaning of his words.
If only a genius appeared, even if this cultivator had stepped into the realm of a god, it would not have attracted so many cave masters to envy Zhong Yuan. Although cultivators in the realm of gods are hard to come by, but in the millions of years of history of the Hall of Stars, there is indeed no shortage of cultivators in the realm of gods.
What everyone envied Zhong Yuan was, once a cultivator like Xia Yan stepped into the realm of the gods and practiced steadily for a period of time to improve his strength, he would most likely be able to pass the review of the elders of the Heavenly Outer Heavens and then become the Immortal Wind Cave. The cave master takes over the place where the clock is far away. Although this Cave Master's position is good, but compared to Tianwaitian's position of elder on the stage, needless to say there is a gap.
If Xia Yan can succeed Zhong Yuan as the Cave Master, then Zhong Yuan will automatically ascend to Tianwaitian to become a new Supreme Elder, and he will practice in the Tianwaitian Twelve Star Dou Palace from then on.
"Haha, thank you very much!" Zhong Yuan clasped his fists and smiled to thank the cave master.
As for the cave masters who had a bad relationship with Xianfeng Cave, they all looked a little displeased, with the thought of cursing in their hearts.
Especially Hong Dongmo secretly said viciously, "The boy Xia Yan came out of the secret realm, and he will definitely not stay in the Star Dou Palace forever. Once he leaves the Star Dou Palace to go out to practice, I will send someone to kill him completely, so that he can be killed." He will never, ever, ever... can't come back now, let's keep this clock away from the old boy's complacency for a while, huh... "
…
In the eighth year, there are less than three years before the closure of the secret realm. Yang Qiuyun, Wan Luo and others still failed to step on the ninth ladder and enter the world of the ninth ladder.
Xia Yan, on the other hand, has successfully passed the world of the eighth ladder and leaped down from the ladder. Seeing Wan Luo and the others, Xia Yan took advantage of the opportunity to look at the time recording crystal.
"Next, is the ninth ladder world!" Xia Yan was thinking, "In the first ladder world, I have made great progress, and my soul has completely transformed and sublimated, while I am in the second ladder world. To the eighth ladder world, although there is progress, but the progress is not very great. It is not so much an improvement, it is more stable."
"That's right, in the world of the first ladder, my soul has already been sublimated. And in the world of the second ladder to the eighth world, my soul is only being stabilized step by step. Now, I It seems that my soul has tended to be full and complete, and the corresponding spirit, will, belief, etc. seem to have reached a full and complete state."
"Huh? The power of my space law has reached a peak. The power of the nine-layer space law is already completely controllable... But, I have not been able to step into the realm of the gods!" Xia Yan felt the inside of his body There were various subtle changes, but the brows were slightly frowned.
