Ronin from Douluo

…

The four tired people came to Dongji City at the foot of the Holy Mountain. They just found a restaurant to have a good meal, and then prepared to go up the mountain to the Sword God Palace.

"Is this right here?"

At the foot of the mountain, Mo Xiao looked at the quaint mountain stone staircase in front of him, winding up around the sacred mountain like a cloud ladder.

He looked at his sister curiously and asked, "Is this the entrance to the Sword God Palace? Isn't there anyone guarding it?"

Mo Xin said with a smile: "Why do you need to guard? Sword God Palace will never refuse anyone who wants to come as a guest. Of course, you must have the ability to go up."

Zeng Yi on the side listened and couldn't help but nodded secretly.

This Sword God Palace is really grand. It actually leaves the door open and allows everyone to climb the mountain to the Sword God Palace. This magnanimity is admirable.

Moreover, with the strength of the Sword God Palace, there is no one or that force in the entire Dongli who has the guts to come here to cause trouble.

With the power of divine prohibition, even a soul master is just an ordinary person here.

No one can stir up trouble here.

However, Zeng Yi soon noticed that there was something in Mo Xin's words.

Do you have the ability to go up?

Zeng Yi looked at Mo Xin and said, "Could there be some mystery behind this mountain climbing stone ladder?"

"You'll know when you walk up there."

Mo Xin looked at Zeng Yi, who had a curious look on his face, and the corners of his mouth curved up, giving him a mysterious smile.

"Just try it."

Zeng Yi was very curious and stepped onto the mountain climbing stone stairs.

Just when his feet were placed on the steps, Zeng Yi couldn't help but feel startled.

Because, just after walking up the steps, the soul power in the body was sealed.

This is a more powerful divine suppression force.

Not only the soul skills, but also the soul power cannot be used at all.

Without soul skills and soul power, wouldn't the so-called soul masters be no different from ordinary people?

Of course, compared to ordinary people, the physical fitness of soul masters is still much stronger.

Even this sacred mountain is estimated to be at least 10,000 meters high. It looks like a divine sword, soaring straight into the sky. Above it is a thick sea of ​​clouds, with no end in sight.

However, for Zeng Yi, even if he lost his soul power, relying on his strong physical fitness and will to reach the top would not be a big problem.

"The soul power has been sealed?"

Mo Xiao also stepped onto the stone steps. After feeling the condition of his body, he cried out in surprise.

"This stone step is called the Divine Refining Step. Anyone who climbs this step will have all their soul skills and soul power blocked. They can only climb it with their own physical strength and perseverance."

Sword Master Chenmu stood aside and explained to Zeng Yi and Mo Xiao.

"This can be regarded as a test for every cultivator who comes to the Sword God Palace. It is a good place to hone your spirit and willpower."

"God's leveling is so interesting!"

Zeng Yi touched his chin and thought for a moment.

According to my own impression, if I could quickly and successfully reach the top of a trial like this, wouldn't that be of any benefit?

Thinking about it, Zeng Yi asked Sword Master Chenmu: "What will happen if you complete this divine refining staircase?"

"Finished?"

Hearing this, Sword Master Chenmu couldn't help but be startled, and then he laughed and said: "This divine refining step is not so easy to complete. Looking at the Sword God Palace from ancient times to the present, there are records of people who can complete the divine refining step.

There are only seventeen people."

"Only a dozen people? Didn't you, sister, finish the journey successfully?" Mo Xiao looked at his sister Mo Xin in surprise.

Mo Xin shook his head.

"What about you, Master Sword Master? You should be able to finish, right?"

"I?"

Sword Master Chenmu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

"I have reached the summit. It can be said that I have not reached the summit."

His words made Zeng Yi even more curious and asked: "Senior, what do you mean by this?"

Chenmu Sword Master said: "I have finished walking, but I am not one of the seventeen people in the record. Because, as long as the person who ascends the trial stage for the first time successfully reaches the end and reaches the top of the sacred mountain,

Only people are qualified to be recorded in the annals of history by the Sword God Palace.

I think back then, I challenged it six times before I successfully completed the divine level."

"No way, even Lord Sword Master couldn't reach the end for the first time. Is this divine level so difficult?" Mo Xiao couldn't help but feel tremendous pressure.

"The person who can reach the end of the Divine Refining Stairs is not an ordinary person." Sword Master Chenmu looked at the winding stone steps and couldn't help but sigh.

"The most recent person who ascended the divine level and reached the end was five years ago."

After Chenmu Sword Master finished speaking, he looked at Zeng Yi with a profound look.

"Come on, let's go up."

Zeng Yi started to take steps and moved forward step by step.

Gradually, Zeng Yi's brows began to frown tightly.

Something's wrong!

Zeng Yi seemed to have discovered the problem.

With each step he took, Zeng Yi felt that the influence of gravity seemed to increase.

Although, this increased gravity is so tiny that you really can't detect it unless you notice it carefully.

This slight increase in gravity does not have much impact on Zeng Yi now.

However, you must know that there are countless stone steps for this divine refining step. This sacred mountain alone is ten thousand meters high.

Moreover, the steps are not laid vertically, but spread up group by group around the sacred mountain. I don’t know how many steps are there?

These seemingly insignificant increases in gravity will add up in the end, and it will be unbelievable.

You must know that this is just a quiet increase in gravity, and your own physical strength will slowly pass over time.

At this time, Zeng Yi finally understood why according to the records of Sword God Palace, only a dozen people could successfully climb the mountain for the first time.

Without soul power and soul skills, they climbed to the top with only their body and willpower. These people are all monsters!

interesting!

Zeng Yi smiled, this divine leveling is a good place to hone your spirit and willpower, it is worthy of your own challenge!

The four of them were walking on the stone steps, but after a while, there was a fork in the road, and there was an additional path.

"I'm an old man and won't bother with this divine leveling. It's better for you young people to continue. I'll wait for you on the mountain first, hahaha." Sword Master Chenmu faced a few people and then walked into the path.

, the figure disappeared in front of the three people.

"This is?"

Mo Xin looked at Zeng Yi's questioning look and said, "This is another road leading to the top of the mountain. There is no sacred forbidden area there, so you can climb the sacred mountain more quickly.

Moreover, in the Divine Refining Stairs, every time you walk a certain distance, there will be such a road, just to give those who can't persist a way out."

Zeng Yi nodded understandingly, "That's it."

"Then let's continue on our way."

The three of them continued to move forward, climbing the stairs step by step, thinking about the future.

Gradually, as time passed, Mo Xiao began to feel weak, his whole face turned red, his breathing became rapid, and his clothes were wet with sweat.

"Why, I feel like my body is getting heavier."

Mo Xiao asked his sister very embarrassedly.

"As gravity increases, the loss of physical strength will become faster, and you will naturally feel that your body becomes heavier and heavier."

Before Mo Xin could speak, Zeng Yi answered first.

"I see. How could I explain why I was so tired? I thought I was getting weaker."

Mo Xiao wiped his sweat, looked at his sister and Zeng Yi, and found that the two of them seemed to be fine, their faces were not red, and they were not out of breath, as if they were taking a leisurely walk.

This comparison makes me feel like a waste.

This is simply too shocking.

"Are you okay?" Zeng Yi looked at Mo Xiao worriedly.

Mo Xiao, whose face was covered in sweat, grinned, "It's okay, I can continue walking."

"Walk!"

Mo Xiao gritted his teeth, raised his feet, and continued walking towards the steps.

Because the gravity has increased, even if you stop, you can't rest. It will only be a meaningless waste of energy. Therefore, you can only continue to move forward without stopping.

Ten minutes later, Mo Xiao finally couldn't hold on any longer.

"Sorry, sister, Brother Yi, please keep going, I can only go so far." Mo Xiao said very tiredly and walked towards the small door on the other side.

"I'll go with you."

Mo Xin did not intend to continue climbing the mountain, and walked towards the trail with his brother.

But Mo Xiao looked at his sister in surprise. From the look on his face, it was clear that he still had some strength left, why should he give up?

"Sister, you don't have to worry about me, can you still keep walking?" Mo Xiao said.

However, Mo Xin shook his head.

"My current ability is not enough to reach the end, so there is no point in continuing to go up. I'd better stay and take care of you."

Mo Xin knew her own strength very well. If she hadn't stayed to look after her younger brother, she would have been on the mountain with Chenmu Sword Saint.

Moreover, she also knew that she could not keep up with Zeng Yi, and the gap between her and him was too big.

Even the one who reached the end of the divine refining steps five years ago could not compare to Zeng Yi.

Therefore, there was no need for her to continue, because she could not witness Zeng Yi reaching the top with her own eyes, so she might as well wait for him at the top of the mountain.

Mo Xin stepped into the door leaving the Divine Refining Stage, then turned back and looked at Zeng Yi who was still in the Divine Refining Stage.

"We'll wait for you at the top of the mountain!"

After hearing her words, Zeng Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"You really have confidence in me."

"That's natural. Aren't you a sword master? If you can't even get through this, does this make sense?"

"Then I'll try my best."

Zeng Yi watched Mo Xin and Mo Xiao disappear from his sight, then turned around and faced the winding stone path in front of him.

"Next, let's be more serious." Zeng Yi smiled with his eyes narrowed, and stretched his body to stretch his muscles.

Just now, in order to match Mo Xiao's pace, Zeng Yi deliberately slowed down his pace.

Now I am alone, and my condition is much better than before.

After all, with the support of "Ronin" passive skills, you are in your strongest state.

Zeng Yi picked up his feet and started to walk up the steps.

His steps are as fast as flying, as if he is treading on flat ground.

Compared with the previous state, this state is completely different.
