The stairs in front of him were only about ten feet wide. There were five teams in total, with three people in each team, which meant fifteen people at a time. On average, the area each person could occupy was only about ten feet.
Hearing this, the leaders of the other teams nodded. After all, there was a stone door at the end of the stairs, so the order was not that important. Otherwise, by the time they knew there was no danger, some practitioners would have already rushed up the stairs.
Immediately, the five teams were arranged in teams of three, and of the four people who initially explored the way, two more were moved away at the eleventh step. They were the cultivator at the peak of the Seven-Star Martial Master level from the Star Dou Continent team, and the man from the Holy Empire.
The cultivator from the Holy Empire, who was only at the mid-stage Seven-Star Martial Honor, was able to hold on until he left with the cultivator at the peak of the Seven-Star Martial Honor, which shows that he had an extraordinary heart. This was not surprising. Knowing that there was a huge danger, he still dared to take the initiative to step forward and test the danger of the Questioning Heart Road. The heart of the cultivator at the mid-stage Seven-Star Martial Honor was naturally extraordinary.
Now, the two people left on the Road of Self-Searching are both practitioners of the Eight-Star Martial Honor Realm. They are from the Moon Goddess World and Xuantian Continent respectively, and they are both practitioners of the two worlds themselves.
On the Giant Rock World side, Yang Qi was arranged among the three people in the first team. In addition to him, there were Chu Hong and Yan Feng. Originally, Yang Qi didn't care, but Yan Feng insisted on letting him go with him because Yang Qi's strength qualified him!
Lu Yan's eyes fell on Yang Qi, and he chuckled, "Brother Yan is really enthusiastic. He actually brought a late-stage Seven-Star Martial Honor cultivator with him. I would have thought that your Giant Rock World had defected to the Zichen Continent."
The three people in the first team of the five teams are all eight-star martial masters. Except for the Xuantian Continent, two of them are basically from the cultivation worlds that have obtained the key, and the other one is from the split cultivator teams. Li Yi is also in the first team of the Moya world.
But the situation is the opposite on the Giant Rock World side. Not only does the Zichen Continent occupy two people, but there is also a cultivator in the late Seven-Star Martial Lord stage.
Yan Feng was not willing to be outdone. He snorted coldly and said with a cold smile, "Lü Yan, you don't need to worry about how we act in the Giant Rock World. If you want to fight me, I will accompany you after we leave the cave."
"I'm not afraid of you!"
Lu Yan smiled coldly, with a hint of hidden sharpness flashing in his eyes, "These temporary practitioners who joined the team actually also want to get the opportunity?"
Lu Yan had already secretly informed the Mohai World that when the time came to plunder these split teams, Xingdou Continent would be the cultivation world with the greatest gains. Among them, the biggest threat was Zichen Continent, because all the practitioners from Zichen Continent had come in. Once they encountered a threat, the two teams from Zichen Continent would unite and become a considerable force.
Therefore, Lu Yan repeatedly provoked the relationship between Zichen Continent and other worlds in order to prevent Zichen Continent from getting help from other cultivation worlds. He chose to provoke the Giant Rock World mainly because Xingdou Continent and the Giant Rock World had a grudge against each other. Provoking the Giant Rock World would not easily make other cultivators doubt his intentions!
The elegantly dressed man who was the leader of Xuantian Continent had a gloomy face, and his eyes swept coldly over Lu Yan and Yan Feng, "You two want to fight to the death, I don't care, but now, if anyone dares to make trouble, don't blame me for being rude!"
He didn't care that these teams that got the keys summoned other teams that were split up, because even so, Xuantian Continent was still the strongest. He was confident that even if there was a great opportunity, they would get it, and even if a fight broke out, Xuantian Continent would not be at a disadvantage.
However, if someone caused trouble in the cave due to personal grudges, thus affecting their chances, he would definitely not be polite to these people.
Not only the Xuantian Continent, but also the Moon Goddess World, the goddess of the Moon God Palace was looking at Lu Yan with a bad face. Obviously, on this point, the Moon God Palace stood with the Xuantian Continent!
"Let's set off quickly. I'm very curious about this path to self-examination." At this moment, Duan Yue's voice came from not far away.
Immediately, the man in gorgeous clothes and the goddess of the Moon God Palace withdrew their gazes, and the practitioners of the first team of the five teams then embarked on the road of self-examination. As the practitioners with the strongest cultivation among the teams, they were naturally the most relaxed on the road of self-examination.
"Is it the fluctuation of the illusion?"
As everyone set out on the path of self-examination, Yang Qi immediately sensed that there was a strange wave enveloping him. As he continued to go deeper into the stairs, the strange wave became stronger and stronger.
When everyone arrived at the ninth step, Lu Yan looked towards Yang Qi. He originally wanted to see Yang Qi make a fool of himself. After all, the late-stage seven-star martial arts master from the Zichen Continent was affected and lost for a moment on the ninth step. But now, Yang Qi seemed to be fine.
“You actually persisted?”
There was a flash of surprise in Lu Yan's eyes, but he didn't care too much. There was also a cultivator from Zichen Continent, a cultivator in the middle stage of Seven-Star Martial Master, who had also persisted on the ninth step.
The Path of Self-Examination tests one's heart of Tao and one's state of mind, not one's cultivation. Otherwise, the first person to be moved out would not be the practitioner in the late Seven-Star Martial Honor Stage, but the practitioner in the middle Seven-Star Martial Honor Stage with the weakest cultivation.
"Let's see how you hold on to the tenth step!" A hint of disdain flashed in Lu Yan's eyes. Even if Yang Qi could block the influence of the illusion of the ninth step, he would definitely not be able to withstand the tenth step!
"The strange fluctuations of the ninth step are much stronger than those of the eighth step." Feeling the impact of the environmental fluctuations of the ninth step, Yang Qi said secretly in his heart.
However, he did not care too much. Even the impact of the ninth step illusion had no effect on him at all. The reason for this was that in addition to Yang Qi's firm heart, his powerful soul also played a huge role. With a strong soul, it is easier to stick to one's heart, and the possibility of being affected by the illusion is naturally smaller.
Wow~
When everyone was shocked and ready to step onto the tenth step, one of the two figures in front of them suddenly disappeared, leaving only one figure in front of them.
"It's the eight-star mid-stage Martial Master cultivator from Xuantian Continent!" Yan Feng fixed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
The one who was just moved away was the cultivator in the middle stage of the Eight-Star Martial Honor from Xuantian Continent, and the one left was actually the cultivator in the early stage of the Eight-Star Martial Honor from Moon God Palace. However, the cultivator from Moon God Palace was also obviously affected!
"The fifteenth step!"
Yang Qi's eyes focused. At this moment, the cultivator from the Moon God Palace was on the fifteenth step, and the cultivator who was moved away was also on the fifteenth step!
In other words, even for an eight-star martial arts master, it would be very difficult to persist to the fifteenth step! (To be continued)
