As Rong Jian expected, breaking through the spiritual realm was completed within ten days despite the difficulties.
After all, for this reason, he talked a lot about research breakthroughs on the way here... With Lu Qinggu as a pioneer, both he and Dong Shao can be said to have benefited greatly.
However, there is no extra time to consolidate after the breakthrough, and the same is true for Dong Shao.
Because the third item of Yantian Sect’s disciple recruitment test has arrived.
We learned from Ning Feng and others that Yantian Sect's third disciple recruitment test was also a necessary one in previous years.
The Bridge of Inquiry, all participants only need to walk across it to pass.
This is both difficult and simple.
The key point of the Bridge of Questioning Conscience is the word "question". As long as you step onto this bridge, you will face the terror in your heart.
Monks are also human beings, and humans will inevitably have various kinds of fearful emotions.
Some people are afraid of ghosts, some are afraid of the dark, and some are afraid of strange things like insects.
The function of the Bridge of Conscience is to present the things you fear in front of you. You can either muster up the courage to break it, or... be swallowed by it.
Every step is an illusion, a hundred steps can reach the other side. If you can make it through, you will be successful.
This test is to see the fearlessness of the monk.
The path of cultivation is full of ups and downs. If you don’t even have the courage to face your fears, you might as well give up everything.
Isn't it nice to be an ordinary person?
At the same time, Ning Feng quietly revealed a secret to Rong Jian and the other two, about why Yantian Sect changed the content of the disciple recruitment test this year.
In the past, the Yantian Sect’s disciple recruitment tests were all conducted in the sect. The test rules were simple: the first test was talent, and the second was conscience. As long as you passed, you could become a disciple of the Yantian Sect.
It’s just that, during the last test, the elders discovered that someone had devised a way to deal with the contents of these two tests. That’s cheating!
Not to mention testing talent, spirit stone testing has existed in the world of cultivation for so many years, there are always people who come up with something.
But for the big guys, talent is something that can be hidden for a while but not forever. You can tell what your talent is by looking at your cultivation speed.
So even though I knew there were ways to deal with it, I didn't pay much attention to it.
And then... there were some ungrateful guys who pretended to be good enough and passed the first test.
The second test is about questioning one's conscience, which is also one of the test items that has remained unchanged in Yantian Sect for many years.
The so-called Bridge of Inquiry, upon in-depth study, is nothing more than a large-scale illusion array of high grade.
Since it is an illusion, then... if there is something that can keep you completely awake and clearly realize that everything in front of you is just an illusion.
Terror is no longer terror.
In response to this test, a sixth-level elixir, the Elephant-Removing Pill, came into being... Everything that followed was very natural.
Perhaps the person behind the scenes was too greedy and sold the methods to deal with these two tests to too many people, resulting in a sharp increase in the number of disciples who entered the sect last time.
The Yantian Sect finally realized the truth and sent people to investigate. All the disciples who cheated were expelled regardless of their talent and strength, and a strict order was issued that their descendants were not allowed to join the sect.
Those people lost more than they gained and were naturally filled with regret, but now that things had come to this, there was no room for redemption.
This incident also resulted in the number of disciples who entered the sect last time being... well, a lot fewer.
Therefore, this time, the Yantian Sect's method of testing disciples' talents has changed from a simple test of spirit stones to a spiritual pressure formation that consumes manpower and material resources.
In addition, a practical training observation was added.
Only the Questioning Heart Bridge has been retained. Of course, it is easy to imagine that this year's Questioning Heart Bridge must have been renovated.
Early that morning, all the young men in the basin had solemn expressions on their faces. They hurried to their destination under the guidance of Su Liyu and many of his formal disciples.
The so-called Bridge of Inquiry is located on a cliff, with wooden planks connected by chains, and it looks... a bit shabby.
At first glance, it does not have the grandeur of a large sect, and can even be compared to some temporary iron chain bridges built by mortals.
"...Although I've heard about it before, I still want to ask, will we really not fall down?" Ye Cangmu approached the edge of the cliff, looked down, and quickly shrank back.
"If you fail, you will fall down." Ning Feng said with a smile, and then pointed at Su Li and others standing on the cranes in the sky, "Of course, don't worry too much. With these people here, you won't fall to the bottom."
Ye Cangmu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "That's good. The word failure doesn't exist for me!"
If you successfully walk across, you won't fall and won't feel the thrill of the plunge.
At this moment, Su Li, who was standing on the crane, spoke, "My fellow apprentice brothers, please look forward."
The other side of the Bridge of Inquiry was shrouded in clouds and mist, and at a glance, it was impossible to see the situation clearly.
"The teachers and leaders of Yantian Sect are waiting for you behind the clouds. As long as you walk across this bridge, you will become the hope of the new generation of Yantian Sect!"
"Go forward, and you will have great protection and abundant resources; you will become the pride of your parents and the glory of your clan; you will have a future with infinite possibilities, and you may even become a top figure in the world of cultivation!"
Inciting words came out of Su Li's mouth one by one, and he looked at the young men below with a smile.
"Next, it's time to witness all of this. Will you go forward and become a disciple of the Ye Tian Sect, or return to your hometown as a loser? The decision is up to you!"
After these words were spoken, the expressions of the young men below became more solemn.
The superficial and inflammatory part of Su Li's words can be ignored, but he was right about one thing: what lies before them is the opportunity to change their destiny.
This is an opportunity. If you seize it, your future will have countless more possibilities than others.
A powerful force, any thing it gives to everyone may be something that those casual cultivators will never find in their entire lives, and it may be something that small families have fought hard to obtain.
And now, we are only a bridge away from entering such a force.
"This test is scored based on how long it takes you to walk across the Bridge of Inquiry. The shorter the time, the higher the score."
"So please, everyone, seize the moment and charge towards the future! I wish you all the best and hope you can achieve satisfactory results."
After saying that, Su Li looked around and smiled after making sure that everyone was ready.
"I believe you are all ready. Then, at this moment, please embark on... the path to changing your destiny!"
As if to respond to this atmosphere, the crane under the seat opened its throat and let out a clear cry, and the other cranes followed suit.
For a moment, the cliffs were filled with the clear calls of cranes, and the young men each set out on their own journey!
