In another direction from where the Overlord Clan was, there were seventeen or eighteen figures quietly staying at the edge.
However, no force dared to approach them.
Occasionally someone looked over and there was a look of awe in their eyes.
Because that was the combination of the two most powerful forces that entered the secret realm this time.
The teams from the two top forces, Daoxu Temple and Biluo Palace.
"This Tyrant is quite clever. He can actually come up with such a plan. He is not as clumsy as he looks at all. Fairy Luo, don't you think so?"
A young man in a star-shaped Taoist robe chuckled.
"The people of the Overlord Clan are just overbearing, not brainless. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to sit firmly in the top three of the thirty-six upper clans for so many tens of thousands of years. As the Daozi of this generation of the Overlord Clan, Batian is naturally not as simple as he seems."
A woman with a veil on her face, a slim figure, a cold temperament, and a look as if she was in a mist said lightly.
"That's true, but this guy doesn't seem to appreciate it. Fairy Luo, how high do you think he can go?" said the young man in the starry Taoist robe.
"I don't know. This person is very mysterious. You will know if you keep watching." said the cold woman wearing a veil.
"Brother Batian, which joint do you think this person will eventually reach?"
On the other side, Shen Zangfeng was also asking Batian.
"It is certain that he will reach more than ten levels. His body is much stronger than ours, and he is subject to fewer restrictions than us. I am afraid that the height he can climb is higher than ours." Batian guessed, "But I can't say how far he can go."
"Yes, our cultivation is mostly above the level of mana golden elixir. This space is too suppressive for us. This person has a strong physical body and has taken a lot of advantages." Shen Zangfeng nodded in agreement.
"If he didn't have this ability, I wouldn't want to work with him."
"Brother Batian knows how to seize the opportunity, but if this person reaches the top in one breath and gets the chance, what are you going to do?" Shen Zangfeng asked tentatively.
"What else can we do?" Batian said calmly, "If he can really reach the top and get the opportunity, it means that his strength is even better than we expected. If that's the case, I'm afraid we are no match for him in this space, so he should get this opportunity."
“Brother Batian really sees things clearly.” Shen Zangfeng praised.
"Let's wait and see. This bone mountain has dozens of sections. The higher you go, the more dangerous it becomes. Even we can only barely reach the tenth section. No matter how strong this guy is, he can't reach the top. After he suffers, he will consider my proposal later."
"I'm afraid that by then, the other families will also have the same idea and compete with you, Brother Batian, for people."
"As long as Brother Shen doesn't snatch people from Ba, it'll be fine. If the other families are so uncivilized, then at most we'll just have a battle. My Ba Wang family is not afraid of them." Ba Tian said indifferently.
Shen Zangfeng smiled slightly and said nothing more.
Batian didn't care. Although he and Shen Zangfeng were brothers, it didn't mean that their friendship had really reached that level.
The reason they were able to join forces was because they all swore a spiritual oath.
But if you really want to be frank with him, even he himself doesn't believe it.
So he was not surprised that Shen Zangfeng did not respond, but continued to focus his attention on Lu Qing.
Lu Qing, who was being watched by many powerful people, was not in a hurry to climb the mountain.
He first observed the bone mountain carefully for a while, and then thought for a while.
Only then did he slowly walk towards the stairs under the gaze of a group of powerful men.
"Here we go, this one is finally going to climb the mountain!"
"Guess, everyone, which joint can this person reach?"
"It's hard to say. When Batian and Shen Zangfeng, the top golden elixirs, tried it before, most of them couldn't hold on at the tenth joint. Although this person's body is strong, I don't know what magic weapon he has, so it's hard to guess."
"I guess this person is very likely to have stepped onto the fifteenth joint. His body is too strong. If he can control such a strong body with ease, his spiritual power must not be weak either. Those evil beasts may not be able to do anything to him."
Amid the discussions of the powerful men, Lu Qing finally arrived in front of the stairs and stepped up.
When one foot landed on the stairs, Lu Qing's body trembled slightly.
I just felt a powerful repressive force falling on me.
A murderous aura also bloomed under his feet, trying to corrode his body from the soles of his feet.
The pressure in this space was already very heavy, but the repressive force on this staircase has to be doubled.
Moreover, this is only the first step. According to Batian, the higher you go, the stronger the suppressing force will be.
Looking at the long staircase spiraling up around the Bone Mountain, Lu Qing was not sure how far he could go.
Feeling the pressure on his body, Lu Qing felt that there was no problem.
But just as he was about to ask Xiaoli in his arms, he saw Xiaoli suddenly jump out of his arms and fall onto the stairs.
"Xiao Li?" Lu Qing was slightly stunned.
"A Qing, I can't stay on you anymore. There's a voice in my mind that keeps warning me that if I want to accept the trial, I must climb the stairs myself." Xiao Li said to Lu Qing.
"Is that so?"
Lu Qing was a little surprised, but when he thought about it, it made sense that the trial of the ancient witch clan would not be so easily exploited.
"In that case, let's climb the stairs together. If you can't bear it, don't force it."
"Yeah." Xiao Li nodded seriously.
"What is that? Is it that person's spirit beast? Is it also going to climb the stairs?"
When Xiao Li jumped out of Lu Qing's arms, the strong men who were watching below were also stunned.
Many people have actually noticed this spiritual pet a long time ago.
After all, the mysterious young man carried it with him wherever he went.
When I hunted the guardian beast outside the ancient tower before, I brought this pet with me.
However, this spirit beast has never shown any magical properties, and the aura it exudes is not strong.
So everyone just thought that it was just a cute looking pet that Lu Qing loved, and there was nothing special about it.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qing brought it up the stairs with him.
Immediately, everyone was shocked.
Then, when they saw Xiao Li really following Lu Qing, climbing up with a jump, and looking quite relaxed.
Many strong men even widened their eyes.
Almost all the strong men living under the Bone Mountain have climbed the stairs and know very well how strong the repressive force on the stairs is.
Not to mention that in addition to the power of sealing, there is also the pervasive evil spirit that corrodes everything.
It can be said that for a strong person in the initial stage of Jindan, climbing the stairs is very difficult. It is difficult for him to go up many steps and he cannot even reach the second joint.
So now when they saw that Xiao Li, such a petite and cute spiritual pet, could climb the stairs easily, those powerful Jindan initial stage masters could hardly believe their eyes.
All of a sudden, they realized that the cute pet that the mysterious young man had been holding was also extraordinary.
It seems that he is even more powerful than many Jindan realm experts present.
"That pet seems interesting."
The cold and aloof woman in the veil moved her eyes slightly.
Xiao Li's sudden appearance made the powerful men below even more nervous.
Just like that, under the watchful eyes of many powerful people, Lu Qing and Xiao Li climbed up the stairs slowly, step by step.
"Fortunately, the added pressure each time you climb a step isn't too strong."
While climbing, Lu Qing was also feeling the changes on the stairs.
Then he discovered that with every step he climbed, the added pressure was only a slight one, which was almost nothing for him.
This also made him feel a lot more relaxed.
Otherwise, if the pressure on each step is very strong, and there are so many steps on this bone mountain, the accumulated number will be an extremely terrifying number.
“This evil spirit erosion is stronger than the blood of the initial stage of the golden elixir that I refined before, but it is not as strong as the blood of the middle stage of the golden elixir. It should not be a problem for Xiao Li to deal with it.”
Lu Qing felt it while climbing up.
Before long, they had reached the junction of the first and second sections of Bone Mountain.
"Xiao Li, according to Batian, the pressure and intensity of the evil spirit will double with every joint you cross, so be careful." Lu Qing warned.
"I understand." Xiao Li answered seriously.
Upon seeing this, Lu Qing nodded slightly, then took a step forward and officially reached the second joint.
Then he felt the pressure on his body suddenly increase.
After climbing so many steps, the pressure accumulated on him was already considerable.
This time, it doubled directly.
What’s more important is that even the evil energy under his feet has also doubled, and it is almost reaching the evil energy contained in the blood of the middle stage of the Golden Core.
Xiao Li, who was standing by, snorted softly and his body trembled slightly.
"Xiao Li, are you okay?" Lu Qing asked with concern.
"It's okay." Xiao Li shook his head, "It's just that the pressure is a little bit stronger. I can still hold on."
"That's fine. If you can't hold on, tell me."
The man and the beast continued to climb up.
The strong men below, seeing them climbing steadily on the second joint, started discussing again.
However, this time, the focus of their discussion was not Lu Qing, but Xiao Li.
"What kind of spirit beast is that that can actually reach the second joint?"
"Although the bodies of spirit beasts are generally strong, isn't it also said that the power of their spirits is generally weak? How did it resist the erosion of the evil spirit?"
"Incredible, as expected, a powerful existence, even the spiritual beast that was tamed is extremely extraordinary. This spiritual beast is probably not an alien species, and it has some powerful ancient blood in its body."
"Aren't the alien species with ancient blood the royal family of the demon race? They usually practice in the demon realm. How could they appear here?"
"Who knows? But this spirit beast must have an extraordinary origin!"
"This young man is so mysterious, it's possible that he is involved with the Demon Realm."
"Your guess is interesting, but it may be the truth."
No one would be surprised that Lu Qing could reach the second joint.
After all, everyone has already witnessed his strength.
It would be strange if he couldn't even reach the second joint.
But Xiao Li did the same thing, which surprised everyone.
For a moment, everyone began to speculate about Xiao Li's origins.
Amid the discussions of the powerful men, Lu Qing and Xiao Li continued to climb up steadily.
The second sacrum, the third sacrum, the fourth sacrum…
As they climbed higher and higher, they finally came to the junction of the fourth and fifth joints.
The eyes of the powerful people below were once again filled with expectation.
"Here it comes, it's finally the fifth joint."
"That spirit pet can actually hold on to the fifth joint!"
"In addition to the increased pressure on the fifth joint, what's even more terrifying is that the pervasive evil spirit will also undergo a qualitative change and begin to condense into substance. It will not only be confined to the feet, but will also begin to cover the entire body and corrode from all directions."
"Most of the mid-level Jindan masters were defeated at this fifth joint."
"Yes, the evil spirit that has condensed into substance is extremely terrifying. Even the protective magic weapon will be corroded."
"I don't know if the spirit beast can still resist."
In the opinion of these powerful men, the evil spirit that has condensed into substance should not pose much of a threat to Lu Qing.
But for that petite spirit beast, that may not be the case.
The bodies of spirit beasts and demon beasts are naturally strong, but at the same time, their spiritual power is generally weaker than that of cultivators of the same level of cultivation.
They wanted to see whether Lu Qing's spirit beast could withstand the erosion of evil spirit after the qualitative change.
Unconsciously, the attention these powerful men paid to Xiao Li was no less than that to Lu Qing.
"Has the evil spirit actually condensed into substance?"
Lu Qing, who has already stepped onto the fifth joint, feels the changes around him, and his expression becomes somewhat solemn.
He was naturally not worried about himself, as this evil spirit could not do anything to him.
What he was worried about was Xiao Li. The evil spirit in this fifth joint had far exceeded the level of Yuan Xue in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
"Xiao Li?"
"It's okay, I can still support it."
Xiao Li's voice was a little difficult, but extremely firm.
At this moment, not only was the pressure on its body extremely powerful, but the evil spirit that had condensed into substance also forced it to be extremely alert to deal with it.
Fortunately, what it condensed was a flawless, top-grade innate demon pill, and over the years, it had followed Lu Qing and gained many opportunities.
This makes it not only physically strong, but also extremely extraordinary in spirit and soul, far surpassing other spirit beasts of the same realm.
And now it is different from the time of refining the primordial blood. It does not need to take it into the body, but only needs to keep it outside the body.
So even though this evil spirit is terrifying, Xiao Li can still hold on.
"A Qing, if it hurts one more joint, I might have to use my magical powers." Xiao Li said at this time.
"It's okay. The sealing force on this bone mountain is extremely strong, and the evil spirit is also heavy. Those people below don't dare to use their spiritual power to spy on you. Even if you use your magical powers, they won't be able to see through you."
Given the weight of the evil spirit on the Bone Mountain, anyone who dares to explore the power of their soul will be immediately and completely corroded and turned into a madman.
Lu Qing didn't think that the people below would seek death in this way.
"That spirit beast actually withstood the evil spirit erosion of the fifth joint?"
Looking at Lu Qing and Xiao Li, after reaching the fifth joint, they were still climbing up.
Many of the strong men who were watching below opened their mouths wide.
