Feng Lili sighed, "I was too harsh, but we have already lost Chu Chu. I hope you can all grow up and stop relying on me for things that are obvious to everyone."
"If things continue like this, what will happen to the three of you if I'm gone one day?"
"Feng Lili...you...sigh..."
Ao Chuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to begin.
"Don't say things like that, old man... I won't be lazy anymore, I'll cultivate diligently."
Hu Buxiao walked over, her eyes slightly misty, but at that moment, a resolute look was imprinted deeply on her fair cheeks like a brand.
"Sister Feng, I'll do whatever you say." Hu Shan chuckled and scratched his head.
"Let's not talk about this anymore."
"Let's get going, our team still has a mission, don't linger too long."
Feng Lili smiled, turned around and walked forward.
Stay where you are.
Ao Chuan watched her retreating figure, a conflicted look on his face. After a moment, as if he had made up his mind, he quickly followed her.
“Feng Lili, I drove Su Bai away because of me. The responsibility for all of this is mine. I will go and apologize to him. Although I know he may not like our team, I will still try my best to invite him to join. Even if he ignores me and shuts me out, I will keep inviting him until he agrees!”
Feng Lili turned around and looked at Ao Chuan, whose expression was resolute, a hint of relief appearing in her eyes.
"The fact that you can let go of that arrogance is enough to show that you have grown up."
"Apologizing to Su Bai is fine, but let's forget about inviting him."
“I know he’s very strong, but I believe our team deserves his participation!” Ao Chuan said firmly.
"That's not it."
Feng Lili shook her head and looked at the rugged mountain road in front of her. In her eyes, she seemed to see that thin figure who had once carried boundless pressure and moved forward resolutely.
"Su Bai is destined to walk a path that no one has ever walked before. This path can only be walked by him alone, even if he is all alone and endlessly lonely."
"We can't help him, and we're not qualified to walk alongside him. All we can do is be bystanders, watch him move forward, and walk that path that belongs only to him."
"Forcing him into the team will only hold him back and become a burden to him."
"Once a person has burdens, they have weaknesses. Only those who are free from burdens are not bound by emotions, can forge ahead, break through to higher realms, possess a stronger state of mind, and achieve true invincibility in the world!"
...
After passing through Tianjue Mountain, Su Bai arrived at the Endless Sea. As soon as he stepped into this place, his cultivation level rose from the Tower Mountain Realm to the Sea-Viewing Realm.
According to Feng Lili, no one can know the boundaries of this sea area. It is the place where powerful people in ancient times comprehended the Dao and observed the sea realm. It is also the place of the third test.
For ordinary people, simply seeing things 50,000 miles away is enough to pass the test.
For Su Bai, who possesses the World's Double Pupil, a distance of 50,000 miles is not difficult. Even though the space of the Heavenly Realm is powerful, far surpassing the ancestral star of the human race, he can easily reach that distance.
Feng Lili also said that this place, like Lingchuan, is said to have a special destiny. As long as you strain your eyes to see to the end of the endless sea, you will be able to find it.
However, Su Bai has no intention of exploring this place. His current goal is to go to the human race's Chengtian City, kill the foreign race, and learn the art of weapon crafting.
Thinking of this, Su Bai's eyes flickered, and the scene 50,000 miles away in the endless sea immediately came into view.
At the same time, he could clearly see a long, winding wooden bridge extending towards him.
This is the Heavenly Bridge that Feng Lili mentioned. Stepping onto this bridge will take you directly to Heavenly City in the Heavenly Realm.
Whoosh!
The wooden bridge soon extended to Su Bai's feet, and without hesitation, Su Bai stepped onto it.
Before he could move, the wooden bridge rapidly contracted, like a conveyor belt, carrying him at breakneck speed back the way he came.
In just a few dozen seconds, a magnificent and ancient city came into view before Su Bai's eyes.
Looking into the distance, he saw that there were many people coming and going in the city, and all the building materials were exactly the same as the stone bricks he had obtained from the palace of the ancient wolf demon king.
Boom—Crack!
As the wooden bridge was lowered back to its original position, Su Bai officially arrived at the city. The moment he looked up, he saw three large characters imbued with an ancient, Taoist spirit—
Tianxing City.
At the same time, his cultivation level also recovered from the Sea-Gazing Realm to the peak of the Great Emperor Realm, but it was not revealed because of the system's concealment.
However, with his cultivation level, he sensed that the vast majority of people here were foreigners, and without exception, they were all Great Emperor level experts.
Of these, 90% were below the seventh level, and the strongest were only two at the eighth level of the Great Emperor realm.
While Su Bai was sizing him up, many people in the city were also sizing him up.
In the distance, a group of five powerful emperors stood in a corner below the city wall, their cold gazes fixed on Su Bai, as if they were looking at prey waiting to be slaughtered.
"Boss, this person is a human!"
Among the five people in the group, a short man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face spoke in a deep voice from the back.
"How did you figure that out?" A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the burly leader.
"There's no mistake. Only humans can possess such a righteous and awe-inspiring aura. Moreover, there is not a trace of fear in his eyes towards Tianxing City or the powerful figures around him. There is only composure. Such innate confidence can only be found in humans. This is the most obvious difference between them and other races."
"Imagine if it were you who came to the Heavenly Path Realm, could you have looked at everything around you with such fearlessness?"
The short man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks squinted his eyes and said.
"That makes sense. Only humans possess such a grand vision, and only they have this sense of standing tall and supporting the world. This is a common trait among all humans."
Another man dressed in black said in a deep voice.
"A grand aura? Standing tall and upright? Damn it, this weak race is almost extinct, and they're still showing off. Today's target is him!"
"After we kill him, we brothers will get the treasure and then go to the Ecstasy Cave for some fun!"
