The next morning, everyone gathered again. The first and second openings of Wanxiandao were in the same place.
Just like brushing away a layer of hazy gauze, the entrance and exit of Wanxiandao slowly appeared before them.
No matter whether it is the first time or the second time, every time you see it, you will be shocked by the scene before your eyes.
Countless avenues stretch to the other side of the mirror. In the endless distance, there is a magnificent palace. Although it seems to be shrunk thousands of times, people can still see the majesty, exquisiteness and grandeur of the palace.
"Will this passage be always open?" Gao Han asked curiously. Then, could people outside also see what they were experiencing inside?
"It is always open. It will not close automatically until everyone is sent out."
"Then can you see what's happening to us inside?" Gao Han looked at Elder Sun who was answering the question.
Elder Sun, who probably knew what he was thinking, smiled and said, "These avenues to heaven may seem to be right in front of us, but they are actually illusions. After you enter, you actually have to pass through the palace first before you can really see these avenues to heaven."
"Elder Sun is right. After you enter the palace, remember to follow your heart." Chang Tianya also reminded.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Chang Tianya stroked his beard and nodded, looking forward again, "The Wanxian Road is now stable, you can go."
When everyone turned back to see, they saw that the disciples from other sects were already impatient. A large number of spiritual practitioners slowly flew into the Wanxiandao, and the whole group appeared in the Wanxiandao in an instant.
The disciples of Zixiao Sect bid farewell to their elders, and then entered the Wanxian Road together.
Excluding the eliminated disciples, Zixiao Sect had a total of fifteen disciples entering the Wanxiandao this time, an increase compared to the past. The number of disciples from other sects was not much different from the past.
After his body was swallowed by the Wanxiandao, Gao Han thought he would enter inside immediately, but he didn't expect that it was a white passage and he needed to move forward. After a while, they were teleported to the square in front of the palace.
Gao Han looked back in the direction of the passage, but did not see the passage that teleported them here. What appeared before him was a void of space. Outside the square, it was swallowed up by a vast expanse of white.
"The Wanxian Road itself is in a different dimension, so the space here is limited." Yuan Ran managed to snatch a few black cards, so he entered the Wanxian Road with them.
"Isn't the Wanxiandao a different dimension created after the great war among the immortals? Why is the battlefield so beautiful?" Gao Han thought that the battlefield after the war should be a ruin.
"That's why Master suspects that there should still be immortals alive in the Wanxian Dao. I just don't know how they are alive. If not, it would be impossible for such a scene to appear after the great war among the immortals. Just looking at this palace, it can only be created by humans." Yuan Ran knew the rules, but he didn't know the situation inside the Wanxian Dao.
More and more people entered Wanxiandao, and the square was instantly filled with disciples from various sects. Everyone couldn't wait to walk towards the palace, and those in the front were even pushing the huge door.
A rough calculation with the naked eye revealed that this huge door must be at least fifty meters high and thirty meters wide. It is extremely heavy and requires the combined efforts of many people to push it open.
Those who claimed to be powerful came forward one after another, they could no longer wait.
With a creaking sound, Ju Men was pushed out a tiny gap. Then, without anyone putting in much effort, Ju Men automatically moved inward until it was fully opened.
The monks rushed in one after another, and those who didn't know thought they could start looking for treasure after entering the palace.
When they rushed in, they found with the help of the faint light inside that the palace was only gorgeous on the outside, but actually it was just an empty shell with nothing inside. The vast space was supported by only hundreds of columns.
"Are these columns made of some special material? If we can take them away, it will be worth the trip."
The unwilling people set their sights on the palace's support pillars and tried to attack them, but were hit by the rebounding force.
"Idiot, if the load-bearing column is really made of special materials, you can't just take it away casually." Someone said contemptuously.
After passing through the hollow palace, they saw another door, a mottled and ancient door that had nothing to do with beauty and refinement. It was covered with rust, traces of various magic weapons, and bloodstains that had dried for who knows how many years. Only then did they finally feel like they were on a battlefield.
The battlefield is a place of despair and cruelty. All the beauty is just a false illusion, which makes people more deeply aware of the nature of war.
In contrast to the exquisiteness before, the desolation and cruelty that comes to one's face will cause a huge gap in one's state of mind. The trial has actually begun at this moment.
Pushing open this door engraved with history, a cold and desolate atmosphere hits you in the face.
Looking up, the road to heaven was right in front of them. The roads they saw outside were suspended in the air.
"Is this the path that the immortals practiced in the Age of Immortals?" Gao Han looked at the vast sky and the avenues that appeared before them like a ladder to heaven.
"The next step should be to just go up."
As he was speaking, someone had already impatiently flown up, but he fell down before he was even ten meters above the ground.
"There is resistance in the air, and only those who can resist this resistance can go up."
This is a test for those who want to inherit the great way. Only by passing this test can one go up.
With the lessons learned from the previous experience, everyone flew up carefully, and the gravity acting down was not so difficult to resist.
Fortunately, the test was not difficult and everyone passed it successfully in the end.
"I'll go first." As soon as a sword cultivator landed, he suddenly rushed towards the middle path.
This path is exactly the path of swordsmanship. It is said that this path is also the path that Master Zixiao took in the past.
Just as the opponent was about to rush into the sword path, a flash of light passed by, and the opponent suddenly seemed to hit a wall, and then was thrown back.
"What's going on?" Gao Han asked with a frown.
"If you want to enter the road of swordsmanship, you must grab enough house cards. Otherwise, you can only see if the avenue will choose you. If not, you can only give up. This person should not have enough house cards, so he was rejected by swordsmanship." Yuanran explained.
Zhongli Tingzhou looked along each path and noticed that there were two strange paths in front of the sword path.
The road in front of the sword path is like two doors, one black and one white, tightly closed. The road ahead has no door, only a turbid vortex.
"What are those two paths?"
Zhongli Tingzhou didn't look at the turbid road, but stared at the clear black and white road. He sensed that the Yin-Yang Bead in his body suddenly began to stir.
Feng Xinxing followed his uncle's line of sight and said, "It's the Yin-Yang Dao. Since ancient times, it is said that no one has ever walked this path. Even if someone has seized the purple gold medal, they still cannot enter. Therefore, many people don't know what the conditions for entering the Yin-Yang Dao are."
"But no one knows how to practice Yin and Yang." Yu Zilang said with a smile, "But since it ranks before the sword path, it means that this path is not weak."
Zhongli Tingzhou nodded and asked again: "What about before the Yin-Yang Dao, what was that Dao?"
"That should be the Chaos Road. The road is invisible, and it is chaos. It is rumored that some people have entered it, while others say that no one has entered it. No one knows whether it is true or not, but..." The speaker was Pei Zhenghai, and he seemed to know a lot.
"But what?" Everyone was curious.
"I've also heard from my master that the Chaos Path might be hiding the secret of the great war among the immortals. But from ancient times to now, no one has been able to enter the Chaos Path, so no one knows whether there really is the secret of the great war among the immortals in it. After all, this is just a guess." Pei Zhenghai shrugged.
"Which way are you going to take?"
Gao Han's voice suddenly sounded.
When everyone saw that it was him, Jiao Yan was unexpectedly the first to speak, "Kendo."
From the first time Gao Han saw him, he had never put the sword in his dantian, but always held it in his arms. He was like a sword fanatic, so it was not surprising that he followed the path of swordsmanship.
"I also follow the path of swordsmanship." Some disciples, led by Feng Xinxing, all follow the path of swordsmanship.
"Since everyone wants to follow the path of swordsmanship, then I will follow the path of immortality." Pei Zhenghai laughed, as if he was taking a different path from everyone else.
The immortal path is not a general term for a certain path, but an invisible path. This path cannot draw on the help of predecessors, and can only be comprehended by oneself. It is very difficult, but for those who want to take another path and do not want to be influenced, the immortal path is the best.
Pei Zhenghai was addicted to alcohol. Without alcohol, he felt that his immortality was meaningless, so it was most appropriate for him to take the path of immortality.
The immortal path is the path of cultivating immortals, and it is also the path without a path. It is at the forefront of all paths, and one can enter it with just a doorplate.
Surprisingly, Yuan Ran also chose the path of immortality like Pei Zhenghai. He was not a pure swordsman. If he followed the path of swordsmanship, he might not be able to reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship in his lifetime, so he also planned to comprehend a path that suits him.
It was obvious that everyone had already thought about their future path outside. When Gao Han asked, everyone stated their choices without much hesitation.
"Gao Han, what are you and Uncle-Master Zhongli going to choose?" Since they were the only two left who hadn't made a choice, Yuan Ran asked immediately.
If possible, he hoped that the two of them would go with everyone, because they were the most dangerous now, and other sects and forces might be eyeing them and trying to attack them.
"Do you want to choose that one?" Gao Han looked at Zhongli Tingzhou. In fact, when he saw Yin-Yang Taoism for the first time, he knew his choice. No other path was more suitable for him than Yin-Yang Taoism.
Zhongli Tingzhou nodded, "What about you?"
Gao Han looked at Chaos Dao who was ranked first.
Zhongli Tingzhou followed his line of sight and saw Chaos Dao, and sent a voice message to him directly, "Could it be that you can sense that Chaos Dao is seducing you just like me?"
Gao Han: "...Can't you use more normal words?"
