The first degree, Qiangbing Hall. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Dongheng Wanyi stood in the glorious pce and looked at the one-way portal in front of him calmly.
Sigh, the trouble of samsara travelers is that they know too much.” Dongheng Wanyi, who had once cultivated to the peak of the eternal realm, naturally knew about the 72 Heaven Halls.
Although he didn’t know the 108 Hell’s Dark Abyss like the back of his hand, he had been there before.
Territory of the sky race?
A secret realm of a powerful being?
No.
This was a space-type ancient treasure.
It far surpassed the existence of an innate supreme treasure.
Ascending to the nine degrees is a little difficult.” Dongheng Wanyi was a little hesitant.
Although he knew the information about the 72 Heaven Halls, it was not very useful. At most, it would save him some timepared to other cultivators.
This was because reaching the pinnacle was a test of individual strength.
Only by passing the test could one reach a higher degree!
But to get first ce, there is no other choice.” Dongheng Wanyi was very clear.
Those as strong as Xian Yuyan, Qing Xuan, Qing Yu, Jiu Gedi, and others, would choose the path to the top.
This was a difficult path.
The difficulty was not inferior to the first round of breaking through the sky race challenge space.
The difference was thatpared to the first round, the 72 Heaven Halls had more choices and could redeem points to recover theirbat prowess!
We can only go.” Dongheng Wanyi only had a fifty percent chance.
If I fail again, would it be embarrassing for others if they reach the top?”
Whatever.
The 108 Hell’s Dark Abyss have already disgraced themselves. Losing it once is a loss, losing it twice is also a loss.”
Dongheng Wanyi swept his gaze across the leaderboard and saw Wang Ye, who was currently ranked behind him.
This guy had finallye down.
It was too embarrassing to be stepped on by a guy from a small cosmic nation…
“Did he spend 5 million points to open the entire map?”
Dongheng Wanyi smiled knowingly.
As far as he knew, Wang Ye was smart and resourceful, but his strength wasn’t enough to reach the third ce. It was even impossible for him to enter the top ten.
However, the rules of the first selection world and the team mission made him rise with the tide.
“You’re getting arrogant.
The 72 Heaven Halls aren’t as easy as you think.
This time, I’ll let you know what it means to be too smart!
Points reset!
Second degree, Hanjiang Hall.
A bright light shed, and a majestic heavenly general instantly dimmed.
Space rippled as Xian Yuyan appeared in the hall. She was dressed in white, her demeanor ethereal.
She was already clear about the rules of the 72 Heaven Halls.
A battle to reach the top with no path of retreat.
However, she would not change her choice.
She always had one goal to im first ce.
I didn’t have time to go straight to the sky race’s challenge space in the first round.”
This round is just enough to make up for it.
Xian Yuyan had never doubted her ability.
She had recovered from her defeat in the first round. Not only had she regained her confidence, but her fighting spirit had also increased.
She knew that her sword heart had always been wed and could not reach perfection.
It was because she had desires and pursuits in her heart that she could not meet the standards of the Celestial Cloud Mosque.
However, this was her true self.
She didn’t want to change.
In the first selection world, she aimed to secure first ce!
Lingbing Hall.
Wang Ye used the tip of his de to draw the locations of the 72 Heaven Halls on the ground.
Dongse Ziyu lowered her head, her vision somewhat obstructed. She then turned her body to look, still showing some confusion.
Two fan shapes!
It was like an hourss stretched from left to right.
Wang Ye said to Dongse Ziyu, “This is the distribution of all the halls in the
Lingbing Hall. There are exactly 72 of them, matching the names of the 72 Heaven Halls.”
“So, I suspect that the real 72 Heaven Halls are likely to be arranged in such a way.”
Wang Ye pointed at the eight pces at the bottom. “Assuming that the Lingbing Hall we are in is one of them, then the left and right sides must be connected to the other two second-degree pces. That’s where our teleportation gate will arrive. It’s right on the left and right borders.”
“Oh?” Dongse Ziyu understood and pointed at the seven pces on the second floor. “So, the second level is above, right?”
“Clever.” Wang Ye gave her a thumbs up.
“How do we get there then?” Dongse Ziyu grinned and tilted her head.
Wang Ye said, “If the 72 Heaven Halls of the Lingbing Hall serve as an analogy for arger concept, then the breakthrough point should be within these 72 pces, one of which corresponds to where the Lingbing Hall is located.”
Something abnormal will happen after entering it.
For example, a test.
Dongse Ziyu’s beautiful eyes lit up. “The fourth mission!”
“Yes, your reaction is really fast.” Wang Ye praised.
Dongse Ziyu’s smile became even sweeter.
This was the first time she had been praised for being smart.
Nong Bi would only irritate her, tease her, and call her stupid.
Wang Ye was much better than him!
What are we waiting for then? Let’s hurry and find the corresponding Lingbing Hall!” Dongse Ziyu couldn’t wait. “The first degree corresponds to eight halls, so we just need to sweep through them one by one, right?”
Yes.” Wang Yeughed.
Through the subtle differences in the pces on the map andparing the characteristics of the Lingbing Hall, one could determine the corresponding location.
But that was not important. As long as Dongse Ziyu was happy.
In any case, he was the one leading the way.
Left or right?” Wang Ye asked.
Left! No! Let’s go to the right!
I’ll listen to you,” Wang Ye said.
The left and right were the same. The eight pces of the first degree formed a circle.
Dongse Ziyu, who had solved the riddle, was full of fighting spirit.
She cut through all the obstacles and disyed her divine might. The power of the holy sword was unstoppable!
Wang Ye preserved his strength and prepared to face the test of the 72 Heaven Halls.
Even though the first three pces did not trigger any phenomenon, he knew that the next pce would trigger it.
Because that was their destination.
Lingbing Hall!
Above the clouds, clouds and mist lingered.
There was a huge pce that looked like a jade building, beautiful.
Dozens of stone pirs supported the pce made of carved jade. Every stone pir was carved withplicated patterns and mysterious symbols.
Wang Ye couldn’t help but take a few more nces.
Wasn’t this the cosmic secret pattern?
Stepping into the pce, what entered his sight was a majestic and astonishing statue. The celestial warriors were lifelike and had an astonishing aura.
It was as if he was the master of the pce and was worshipped there.
Be careful,” Wang Ye warned Dongse Ziyu.
He had entered many halls, but this was the first one with a statue.
Before he could finish his sentence, the statue’s eyes suddenly lit up!
Mystical engravings around the pce lit up at the same time and quickly connected, turning the entire pce into a secret realm that enveloped it.
Swoosh!
Wang Ye’s vision changed.
Dongse Ziyu disappeared without a trace.
Space distorted and ovepped. A dimensional crack appeared, and chaos ensued. Time passed quickly, exerting immense psychological pressure.
An astonishing pressure pressed down from all directions, and the pressure of willpower was extremely strong.
Spacetime Labyrinth, is this the test of the Lingbing Hall?” Wang Ye remained calm.
His proficiency in Spatial Control and Time Control made him feel as if he was walking on t ground without any pressure.
No matter how distorted the space was or how time changed, it posed no obstacle for him.
Because his mastery was extremely high!
If the participants are not proficient in time and space, they will probably be lost here and trapped forever,” Wang Ye understood the difficulty of Lingbing Hall’s test.
But that wasn’t necessarily the case.
If it was Wen Rou, it would have been broken.
As for himself, he could also break it with the Reincarnation sh Saber Technique, but…
Let’s take a look.
He passed through many obstacles.
As if he was walking on a Great Path, Wang Ye broke through the void and crossed the river of time. Soon, he arrived at the end of the pce.
The sky warrior holding the spirit weapon spread his wings and came to life.
He was the guardian of the Lingbing Hall!
Boom!” Wang Ye’s attack perfection coordinated with the Hellfire Devil de andunched an attack.
A sky warrior with an indestructible body would have a spirit weapon that shone brightly, and its power could not be underestimated.
The attack contained the mysteries of time and space, far stronger than the Undying Lifeforms outside!
Unfortunately, Wang Ye was very strong now.
Boom! Boom!
Wang Ye’s dual des erupted with immense power.
The saber technique, Sky Destruction, shattered through time and space, unleashing a surge of dark power.
With the top-rank internal world apanying the release of the time treasure, Wang Ye found himself overpowering the sky warriors in terms of time maniption.
His formidable strength was undeniable!
After a fierce battle, Wang Ye defeated the guardian of the Lingbing Hall.
As the light shed before his eyes, he found himself back in the grand hall.
I should be able to proceed to the second degree now,” Wang Ye said as he essed the world panel.
On the full map, the Lingbing Hall was marked as he passed the test.
Simultaneously, two teleportation gates appeared above the seven pces of the first degree.
Wang Ye wasn’t in a hurry. He sorted through the clues while awaiting Dongse Ziyu.
Before long, rippling space heralded the arrival of Dongse Ziyu, brimming with fighting spirit. She was momentarily surprised at the sight of Wang Ye.
Let’s go. The portal to the second degree has opened,” Wang Ye announced.
Ah?” Dongse Ziyu eximed in surprise and joy.
Not far away, the two soon reached the towering hall above.
Unlike the Lingbing Hall, this magnificent hall, although more imposing,cked any statues.
There was only one portal, distinct from the border’s portal.
This is a one-way teleportation gate,” Dongse Ziyu, being knowledgeable, quickly identified.
Yes,” Wang Ye confirmed. “Once we go to the second degree, we can’te back.”
So be it. What’s there to fear?” Dongse Ziyu replied confidently. Just as she was about to step forward, Wang Ye grabbed her wrist, causing her a slight pause.
Think carefully,” Wang Ye advised. “This is not just about being unable to return. It’s a critical decision point. You need to choose how to proceed in the second half of our journey.”
What do you mean?” Dongse Ziyu asked, puzzled.
Wang Ye looked at her seriously. “Fight when necessary, retreat when necessary.”
In battle, act decisively!
When retreating, prioritize self-preservation!”
This is a hint we received from the Infinite World of ughter.
There’s no absolute distinction between good and bad paths. You can only choose based on your abilities.”
In the second half of the journey through the 72 Heaven Halls, there are only two options. Either fight to the end, passing the tests of each stage’s 72 Heaven Halls, opening the portals, ascending step by step, andpleting the second mission to reach the ninth degree…”
Or choose to retreat and ensure safety,pleting the first mission and leaving the 72 Heaven Halls.”
“You can’t have both.
Have you made your decision?”
