Xiao Yan was far more magnanimous, imdiately letting out a hearty laugh and looking at Xu Qinghe with eyes full of adoration as he said, "After leaving the ’Hundred Sect Battle Domain,’ we plan to return to Star Moon City for a while. If Brother Ye is free by then, the Xiao Family will certainly treat Brother Ye as an honored guest."
"Alright, it’s a deal."
Ye Xiaofan replied with a cheerful laugh, while Xu Qinghe’s cheeks turned even redder with embarrassnt. Evidently, although this extraordinary girl was several years older than the two, she had already been won over by Xiao Yan’s charms.
What the three of them didn’t know was that leaving the ’Hundred Sect Battle Domain’ ultimately beca sothing Xiao Yan could never accomplish in his lifeti.
In the oppressive atmosphere of this tense environnt, the gathering of these three was a warm interlude; however, regrettably, this interlude was extrely short-lived.
A short while later.
"Junior Brother Ye."
Luo Qingxian softly called from the flying vessel.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofan looked up, then bid farewell to Xiao Yan and Xu Qinghe with a slight bow of his hands, saying, "Brother Ye, Qinghe, see you in Star Moon City."
"Star Moon City, I’ll be waiting for you," Xiao Yan laughed grandly in response.
After the three parted ways, Ye Xiaofan stepped into the air and soon arrived on Luo Qingxian’s flying vessel.
After half a quarter-hour.
More than two thousand figures slowly appeared before the Ascension Path, all standing silently and gazing at the Stone Pillar Forest bathed in golden light ahead. To say they weren’t anxious was impossible.
To walk through the Ascension Path, of course, ant they couldn’t ride the flying vessel anymore. All cultivators had to proceed on foot, though short-distance flying was permitted; however, for safety reasons, no one would choose to pilot the flying vessel.
After standing before the Ascension Path for a long ti, many prodigious talents took a deep breath and slowly stepped in.
The Ascension Path, a difficult passage to the heavens, where a slight misstep could lead to transcendence; its terrifying nature needed no further explanation.
Ye Xiaofan and Luo Qingxian exchanged a glance before slowly stepping in as well.
As for Yunmo Xi, though no cultivator paired with her, she quickly took out two ’Temporal Monunts’ and fused them, following alone behind. This scene caused a stir when she fused the ’Temporal Monunts,’ but at that mont, everyone’s focus was on the Ascension Path, so no one paid much attention.
Noticing Yunmo Xi following closely, Ye Xiaofan and Luo Qingxian exchanged glances, both furrowing their brows slightly.
However, the latter communicated telepathically, "Ignore her. Later, if there’s a chance, try to pass through the Ascension Path quickly. Once inside the ’Space-Ti Barrier,’ she can only watch us. As long as we can grow stronger in there, everything is possible."
Hearing Luo Qingxian’s transmission, Ye Xiaofan nodded slightly and decided to treat her as air.
And the mont the two stepped onto the Ascension Path, Ye Xiaofan paused slightly.
Earlier, he couldn’t feel anything from outside, but now it all ca rushing at him. Upon ascending to the heavenly path, everyone realized that the majestic Heaven-Reaching Pillars were terrifying beyond imagination, adorned with ancient inscriptions and shrouded in divine light.
On each Heaven-Reaching Pillar, there was a large and distinct rune.
These runes served as tests; only a cultivator who could comprehend the rune could move past the particular Heaven-Reaching Pillar, otherwise, they’d be stuck in place.
What truly fascinated Ye Xiaofan, however, wasn’t this but the mont he stepped onto the Ascension Path when his World Tree Martial Soul seed to tremble slightly, but only for a mont before returning to silence.
It was clear this place sohow had a faint connection to the World Tree Martial Soul, though it was so subtle that the World Tree Martial Soul directly overlooked it.
Gently observing these Heaven-Reaching Pillars, Ye Xiaofan’s eyes shimred with endless curiosity.
Being an Array Master, he had a unique perception of the ancient inscriptions on those Heaven-Reaching Pillars, akin to Array Patterns, yet from a different origin.
"Sealing Technique!"
The first thought that ca to Ye Xiaofan was the Sealing Technique. The ancient inscriptions on the Heaven-Reaching Pillars were a kind of sealing thod similar to the Array Dao, and extrely terrifying at that.
Could it be that sothing was sealed within these pillars?
For a mont, endless waves surged in Ye Xiaofan’s heart; the ’Hundred Sect Battle Domain’ seed to be filled with many untold secrets.
Of course, for now, these were not matters he intended to delve into deeply. The current plan was to swiftly complete the path to heaven and reach its end.
With this thought in mind, Ye Xiaofan and Luo Qingxian didn’t hesitate any longer. They slightly raised their heads, focusing intently on the test rune and began to imrse themselves in understanding it.
Elsewhere, Li Mofeng and others eyed the straightforward Ye Xiaofan with contempt, sneering quietly as they each imrsed themselves in the comprehension of the Heaven-Reaching Pillars before them.
While understanding these runes might not bring great benefits, it was a required test to pass through the Ascension Path. Evidently, those who set up the ’Valley of Space-Ti’ didn’t want prodigious talents with low Comprehension Talent to reach the end.
However, as the comprehension continued, everyone noticed that although understanding these runes offered little benefit, their cultivation was slowly improving, albeit too slowly to be of significant note.
Those who reached this stage could hardly be considered lacking in comprehension. On the contrary, the cultivators of the Hundred Sects who entered the ’Valley of Space-Ti’ were among the most frightening prodigious talents, their comprehension astonishingly extraordinary.
Thus, the initial comprehension was as easy for them as drinking water, allowing them to quickly delve deeper.
As they progressed further, all gradually discovered that the further they advanced, an invisible force increasingly intensified—a divine pressure that required cultivators to engage their cultivation to resist.
