Since going through the Gate of Life will teleport you out of the Imperial Tomb.

Then the only path left is the dead end.

"Gao Yan, why don't we also go through the Gate of Life?" Xiahou Meng suggested.

"No, I'm going to take the death gate!"

Gao Yan shook his head.

"Why?" Xiahou Meng asked, puzzled.

Gao Yan didn't bother to make up a reason and simply said, "It's my intuition!"

"Alright, let's go through the Death Gate!"

Xiahou Meng nodded.

"Why don't you think about it!" Gao Yan hadn't expected Xiahou Meng to trust him so much.

"No need to think about it anymore, I trust your intuition!" Xiahou Meng said firmly.

“Alright, let’s go in hand in hand!” Gao Yan said, extending one hand. Since Xiahou Meng trusted him so much, he also intended to take care of her if they encountered danger inside the Death Gate.

In fact, he had no idea that Xiahou Meng thought that he must have obtained a lot of opportunities because he had cultivated to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage before he was fifty years old.

People who have many opportunities generally have good fortune.

People with good fortune are often not easy to die, which is the real reason why Xiahou Meng was willing to go into the Gate of Death with him!

The next moment, the two entered the Gate of Death hand in hand.

The three Nascent Soul cultivators who remained in place were still hesitant about which door to take.

After Gao Yan and Xiahou Meng entered the Death Gate passage hand in hand, they felt a blur before their eyes and then landed on a black stone slab that was two meters long and one meter wide.

In the void before them, there were also stone slabs embedded in the ground.

Gao Yan counted them; there were a total of ninety-nine stone slabs.

At the end of the void stone path, there are two more gates.

The two looked at each other, then held hands and flew forward.

But after flying just two meters, the two of them felt a blur before their eyes and were back on the first stone slab!

Immediately, Gao Yan looked thoughtful: "It seems that we can only reach the other side step by step along the stone path!"

"Be careful, I don't think things are that simple!"

Xiahou Meng reminded her.

Gao Yan nodded, released a golden light shield that enveloped the two of them, and then together they crossed more than two meters of void and landed on the second stone slab.

The moment they landed on the second stone slab, a dense array of sword energy suddenly appeared in the void, and in an instant, this sword energy swept towards the two of them from all directions!

"Ta-da!"

These sword energies were quite powerful, comparable to attacks from ordinary ninth-level Nascent Soul cultivators, but they couldn't shake the golden light shield.

"Let's go!"

Gao Yan pulled Xiahou Meng down onto the third stone slab.

The sword energy struck again.

However, this sword energy was about 10% more powerful than the previous sword energy.

Gao Yan remained unresponsive.

He used the golden shield to block, then jumped towards the fourth stone slab.

But after landing on the fourth stone slab, the surrounding sword energy attacked at an even faster speed, increasing its power by another ten percent.

Gao Yan had a vague feeling that this stone-paved road was a test.

The reason why these sword energies are only at the level of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage is probably because it was determined that both of them were at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.

However, his true cultivation level is the seventh level of the Nascent Soul stage, but the mechanism here still arranges the sword energy according to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, which means that the mechanism here cannot see through his true cultivation level!

Thinking about this...

He tried to adjust his aura to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage.

As he expected, after he adjusted his breathing, the power of the sword energy attacking him was greatly reduced!

However, Gao Yan quickly restored his aura to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.

"What's wrong with you? Your breathing is fluctuating." Xiahou Meng glanced at Gao Yan and asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I'm just verifying something!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yan led Xiahou Meng onto the fifth stone slab.

Next, the two continued to leap through the void, while the sword energy attacking them grew stronger and stronger.

However, the Golden Light Shield is a mid-grade spiritual treasure with extremely strong defensive capabilities. Even though Gao Yan did not reveal his strength, he easily passed through the Void Stone Slab Road!

We arrived at the two gates!

suddenly.

A stone platform suddenly appeared between the two doors.

Two brocade boxes were placed on the table.

The two of them each picked up a brocade box and opened it; inside were jade slips.

Gao Yan picked up the jade slip and placed it between his eyebrows. Instantly, a message appeared in his mind.

This message told him that this trial was just an appetizer, and the trials to come would become increasingly dangerous. However, if he entered the Gate of Life, he could still be teleported out of the Imperial Tomb.

But if you continue into the death gate, you might lose your life.

"Gao Yan, what's inside your jade slip?"

Xiahou Meng asked.

"There's a message inside the jade slip; you can read it yourself. What about yours?"

Xiahou Meng said excitedly, "This jade slip contains a supernatural power!"

So the two of them exchanged information to read from inside.

The supernatural power recorded in the jade slip is a pupil technique. Once mastered, the left eye can conjure a trapping formation, while the right eye can directly cast illusions.

The combination of the two amplifies their power.

"Gao Yan, do you want to continue trying?"

After reading the exchanged jade slips, Xiahou Meng asked a question.

"Since we're already here, there's no reason to give up!" Gao Yan said in a deep voice. He was particularly envious of the top-grade spirit stones in the Emperor's Tomb. Although the spirit herbs were good, their value couldn't be directly calculated.

"Alright, let's continue!"

Xiahou Meng also spoke quite decisively.

In her opinion, having already obtained a decent eye technique after passing the first level, she might gain even more benefits if she could pass more levels.

Gao Yan was secretly thinking that more than 100,000 people had entered this time. Even if only one-tenth of them entered the Death Gate, that would still be 10,000 people trying to pass the test.
