After the 50th step, there were more people and monsters crawling on the ground, some of them even covered in a layer of white frost. Xiao Yu and Zhou Yanzhi unconsciously looked down the stairs. If the monks on the 50th step were covered in ice, then those crawling further down had they already frozen to death?
The two of them didn't feel the staircase was difficult to walk on. So, when they easily passed those people, demons, and monsters lying on the ground, struggling to move forward, they were so shocked that they almost popped their eyes out.
Xiao Yu: -_-||! We're not the only ones here, why should we be so shocked?
As they reached the 70th step, Xiao Yu and Zhou Yan felt something in their hearts. They barely had time to exchange a glance before their figures vanished from the stairs. At the same time, a flurry of people emerged from the 60th, 50th, 40th, and 30th steps.
Many of the people emerging from the 60th step were familiar to Xiao Yu, such as Luo Ziwei, Long Xiangqian, the two suspected sons of destiny from the Xiao family, and the group from the Lihuo Immortal Sect who had clashed with them before. The rest, judging by their service, were mostly cultivators from the Southern and Central Wastelands.
The situation on the fifty and fortieth steps is similar. They are either monks from the sects of the five great wildernesses of east, west, south, north and center, or the top forces of the five great wildernesses.
On the 30th step further away, Zhou Yuanhang led a group from Wanxiang Pavilion and the major sects and families in the Western Wilderness.
These people were very uniform, with more or less injuries on their bodies. Judging from the appearance of the injuries, they were all sword wounds.
Everyone looked at each other and continued to move forward.
☆
But compared to Xiao Yu and Zhou Yanzhi's effortless ascent, no matter which stage of the stairs they were on, walking up was not so easy. Luo Ziwei, Long Xunhai, and the two Xiao brothers were all sweating profusely by the time they reached the 70th step.
Even so, the 70th level trial did not let them off.
With a flash of their figures, they disappeared on the stairs, and at the same time, those who were on the 50th, 40th, and 30th steps also disappeared.
A day later, Xiao Yu appeared on the steps. Seeing that Zhou Yanzhi was not there, he simply sat down and ate while waiting for someone.
A few days later, Zhou Yanzhi finally appeared. Seeing his Taoist partner sitting cross-legged on the stairs, he smiled and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting, Madam."
Xiao Yu jumped up and immediately noticed that the other party had not only changed into a new set of robes, but also had many cuts on the robes left by swords.
"Brother, what are you trying to do this time?" Xiao Yu was curious when he saw that the other party was not injured, but there were cuts on his robes caused by swords.
Zhou Yanzhi waved his hand and changed his clothes out of thin air. "This is the martial arts trial field. The martial arts here include fist and foot skills, sword skills, knife skills, etc. Each person has an arena, and puppets of different levels will appear on the arena. Defeat the opponent to pass the level. Of course, you can also challenge others. What kind of trial is this time, Xiaoyu?"
☆
"Talisman."
"Talismans? The talismans from ancient Shinto magic?"
"Well, it's a little different from what we usually draw."
"I've read about this before, but I wonder if it's the same. I used to know that ancient talismans were mainly used to communicate with the spirits of heaven and earth and the gods. Later, some powerful people mixed them in or transformed them into runes in talismans, or used them together with formation inscriptions. It's said that the effect is very good."
"Uh, so that's it!" Xiao Yu scratched his head awkwardly. "At the time, I just wanted to pass the level quickly. I didn't think too much about it. I just followed their demonstrations and learned to draw all the talismans. I couldn't wait to try them out. In the end, I drew three first-grade ones and one second-grade one, and only then did I pass."
Zhou Yanzhi raised his eyebrows: "Have you learned how to draw?"
"Yeah? Those talismans look strange and contain all kinds of coldness. Although I have a good memory now, I am still afraid of making mistakes. I drew them for a long time before I dared to test them."
"show me."
Xiao Yu did not suspect anything and took out all the draft books he had used before. He also explained to the other party the meaning of some of the seal characters and lines.
Zhou Yanzhi's memory was stronger than Xiao Yu's. While the other party was explaining, he memorized the thirty-six talismans that the other party had copied.
☆
"What?" Xiao Yu was suddenly kissed, and he was stunned for a moment. This, this is in public! Although there are fewer people as you go up, but, but...
Zhou Yanzhi's eyes were full of smiles: "Thank you, baby, for bringing new knowledge to your husband."
"Ah?" Xiao Yu was surprised for a while, then suddenly realized, and then felt depressed at his slowness, "Oh, brother, you are smart! I didn't think of it." He learned to draw all the talismans in order to strengthen his memory, but he forgot that everything he brought out after drawing them would be his.
This is simply...
Seeing that he understood, Zhou Yanzhi encouraged him, "Next time, if you need any more skills, baby can spend more time on them. We are not in a hurry. Compared to other external treasures, once we learn these, they will be ours."
"Yeah. I'll listen to you, brother. But when the time comes, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for me." He wasn't smart enough and could only figure it out slowly.
"It's okay. I learned this from the previous martial arts trial field. Many martial artists, including demons, monsters, and ghosts, were continuously teleported into the martial arts trial field starting from the 20th or 30th steps."
Xiao Yu was puzzled: "Why wasn't I introduced? And brother, how come you were introduced only at the 70th level?"
Zhou Yanzhi looked at him and couldn't help but kiss him again: "Of course, the baby's Taoist partner has a higher combat power value. The trial field believes that the following trial is not suitable for me."
Xiao Yu chuckled, his brother was being arrogant!
Zhou Yanzhi stared at his child with a mischievous expression. The puppy's eggs had grown bigger!
