Chapter 775: Chapter 339: Ascending Spirit Mountain, Comprehending the Path of Longevity_3

In fact, this “leak” was the key to screening cultivators. In the end, cultivators within a funnel area would all gather at this leak position and compete for the opportunity to pass through first.

Han Yi discovered this restrictive area on the second day of climbing the mountain. With a Green Reed Sword, he broke through the encirclement and fought fiercely against a Peak Nascent Soul cultivator, forcing both parties to retreat a few steps. Fortunately, the width of the leak was sufficient, and both parties were relatively conservative. There were still many chances for the top 100,000, so there was no need to fight desperately from the start.

Three days later.

Han Yi reached the second layer of the funnel leak. When he arrived here, he found that a heavy Xianwei began to act on his body, greatly reducing his speed.

This time, most of those encountered were Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and above. With the Green Reed Sword leading the way, Han Yi was able to force back even Late Stage Nascent Soul cultivators with a single strike. However, he didn’t try to kill them, only forcing them to retreat, which drew the attention of the other cultivators.

Five days later.

At the third layer of the funnel leak, the heavy majesty already made Han Yi unable to fly, and he had to start running instead.

However, his Ancient God System was at its peak in the Dark Sun Realm, and his greatest strength was in this aspect. Naturally, his body was as fast as lightning, taking a step ahead of others and far surpassing other cultivators, even ordinary Peak Nascent Soul cultivators.

When Han Yi reached the middle area of the fourth layer funnel, he encountered a woman in a red skirt whose speed astonished him.

It appeared effortless, yet it was as fast as teleportation.

Because she was purely walking in the depths of space, it was not teleportation, but like teleportation—just a short moment before Han Yi was far behind.

“It should be a special physique that has something to do with speed.”

By now, Han Yi was no longer just an ordinary cultivator from the small Xuandan Sect in Yu Heng World. He had come to know most of the secrets of cultivation in the world.

His understanding of a cultivator’s physique went deep. Everyone’s constitution was different, and their innate talents were also different.

In fact, constitution had a direct connection to bloodlines. Among them, there was a so-called “True Body”. The essence of this true body was that there must be immortals among one’s ancestors. Only Immortals could integrate a certain immortal skill into their bloodline, thus forming a true body with a special effect in terms of cultivation. This kind of true body would randomly appear among the descendants of Immortals.

For example, when Han Yi first met Yu Ling, the young lady from the Yu family, she was the possessor of the Tai Yin True Body. This indicated that the Yu family’s ancestry had practitioners of the Tai Yin True Method and were descendants of Immortals. However, separated by a hundred thousand years, cultivators capable of awakening this bloodline were extremely rare.

In fact,

Han Yi later discovered that the Ancient God War Body he activated while practicing the Ancient God System was extremely similar to the rumored True Body.

He had some conjectures about the connection between the two, but for now, he couldn’t confirm it.

At this moment, the red skirt woman should be activating a space-type True Body. Han Yi recalled several True Bodies he had seen, such as the Spiritual Space True Body and the Infinite True Body.

For these types of cultivators, the Immortal Convention task of Spirit Mountain would naturally lead others by a large margin, and Han Yi was no exception.

That was why he didn’t set his goal too high, aiming to only break into the top 100. This was because there were always some evildoers or those with outstanding talent—those with mysterious True Bodies or those descended from Immortals. Some were even reincarnations of Immortal Monarchs or Immortal Venerates. In front of these cultivators, he felt inadequate.

Han Yi calmed his scattered thoughts and continued forward, crossing the fourth layer funnel area, entering the fifth layer. Here, the number of cultivators had not decreased but instead increased. Moreover, those who could reach the fifth layer within this time were all Late Stage Qi Cultivation Nascent Soul cultivators or above.

However, Han Yi’s speed surpassed even Qi Cultivation Peak cultivators, not to mention those at the Late Stage of Qi Cultivation.

In this level, Han Yi had obtained several spiritual items and even acquired a Middle Grade Spiritual Treasure—a blood-red long knife. The knife was extremely fierce and unsuitable for him to use. He stored it in his Qiankun Ring to be sold or exchanged for a Sword Tool at the Immortal Trading Palace later on.

Then came the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth layers…

By the ninth layer, a terrifying Xianwei pervaded the space. This was the majesty of the Spirit Mountain Immortal Artifact. Han Yi’s speed had decreased to the point of his initial Qi Cultivation Second Layer breakthrough.

And that was still thanks to the effects of his Dark Sun Realm Ancient God System.

Meanwhile, most other cultivators, even the Peak Nascent Soul ones, had slowed to the speed of ordinary human running.

Han Yi saw the woman in the red dress again. Although she had a powerful true body, for some reason, under the influence of the immortal might, her speed had slowed considerably, equivalent to a cultivator who had just entered the Qi Cultivation Realm.

As he passed the red-dressed woman, Han Yi subconsciously turned to look and saw an incredibly beautiful face. Despite his nearly 120 years of cultivation, his heart was stirred, and his breath hitched.

Then, he shifted his gaze away and continued to move forward at a fast speed. Three breaths later, he frowned slightly. Logically, even if she was extremely beautiful, her appearance alone should not have given him such a feeling. However, the feeling he just had seemed real.

This could only mean that the woman did not rely on her beauty to stir Han Yi’s heart, but she herself possessed a certain magical power that made him feel this way.

With this thought, he extinguished the excitement he had just felt and no longer let his mind wander. Moreover, Han Yi planted a mental suggestion within himself that no matter what, he must be careful of this mysterious woman when they meet again.

Behind Han Yi, the red-dressed woman frowned slightly, her eyes emitting a mysterious light purple halo.

“Body Refining Skill? Ancient Gods Cultivation-type skill, or Ancient Gods Visualization-type skill?”

“It’s a pity that he only has a Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation base. Even if he could enter the semi-finals, he won’t make it to the finals.”

“He’s not a strong opponent.”

On the other hand.

In this ninth layer, Han Yi no longer sensed any area restrictions. As long as they moved upward, they could pass. His face lit up because this foreshadowed that they were about to reach the top.

An hour later, he looked up and could clearly see the peak.

He lowered his gaze, his eyes narrowing, for at a position about a hundred meters from the peak, there was a circle of cultivators sitting cross-legged.

This circle of cultivators evenly spaced out, and at a rough count, there should be twelve of them.

Suddenly, a young cultivator appeared several kilometers away and walked quickly towards the peak. With each heavy step the youth took, his fighting spirit intensified. His speed approached Han Yi’s normal speed in this place.

“Today, let me see what the Twelve Divine Infants of Daluo are capable of.”

Han Yi’s brow furrowed. Although he had spent a lot of points to immerse himself in the Xuancang Palace, he had never really learned about the Nascent Soul cultivators. After all, there were countless Nascent Soul cultivators in the Daluo Immortal Realm. It was simply impossible to know them all.

He had never heard of the ‘Twelve Divine Infants of Daluo’ mentioned in the youth’s words.

However.

Since they had clear titles, these twelve must be quite famous. It’s just not clear whether this blockade was a test for this Immortal Convention or simply the idea of these twelve people.

Interesting.

While Han Yi contemplated, the young cultivator with the astonishing fighting spirit was instantly sent flying with a palm strike. He rolled several hundred meters down before stabilizing himself. After standing up, he coughed up blood continuously, his face pale.

As for the one who attacked him, it was just one of the twelve cultivators in the circle. This cultivator chuckled slightly but didn’t speak, preparing to sit down again.

This time, it was their, the Twelve Divine Infants, initiative to intercept the cultivators here. Those who couldn’t pass their test could only blame their inferior abilities.

Just as he was about to sit down.

Suddenly.

A figure appeared, quickly approaching from below. Han Yi, who had just been about to take action, stopped in his tracks. His eyes widened, his expression incredulous.

“White Jade Cliff?”
