Big Bodhi

The violent imposing power swept in from all directions, and Ji Yuenian's long black hair fluttered along with his green robes, and it seemed that he would collapse from the stone steps at any time and fall into the clouds.

This was already the 247th stone step!

The dark Heart Fire in his soul burned suddenly, dissipating a small half of the huge pressure endured by Ji Yuenian, granting him a moment of respite.

The most mysterious thing about the stone steps was that they could roughly detect the true Grade of the soul's Heart Fire even without it being ignited. The higher the Heart Fire Sequence, the further one could go on the Cloud Stone Steps!

The psychic karma fire was rare in the world, and its miraculous and mysterious features were already noticed by Ji Yuenian. He could slightly control the sequence of rank that the psychic karma manifested externally!

Previously, he had always manifested the Grade 6 Heart Fire Sequence. At this time, he had reached the limit above the Cloud Stone Steps, so he simply raised it to Grade 5.

A pitch-black flame ignited from within the soul, and Ji Yuenian's eyes flashed with azure lights, and when he flicked his sleeves, he crossed another seven stone steps one after another!

254th step!

There was an uproar on the stone steps behind him, and countless creatures looked dumbfounded at Ji Yuenian. He looked like he was unstoppable.

"By the time one reach the 200th stone step, others would pause for a long time for every stone step, but this person crossed seven stone steps one after another!"

"He actually surpassed the Xu family's, Xu Jingshen!"

"Xu Jingshen is the evildoer with the Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence, and he has only reached the 251st step. Could it be that this person also has the Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence!?"

"This time, the entrance examination is shocking. So far, there have beeine people with the Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence!"

The persoamed Xu Jingshen was originally ranked eleventh and was adjusting his mental condition on the 251st stone step. Seeing Ji Yuenian stepping up ahead, he was shocked, his eyes narrowed as he stared at the lonely back.

Although the Grade of the Heart Fire Sequence was not all that was tested by the Cloud Stone Steps, it represented an upper limit in a certain aspect, which was extremely important.

Even the people at the front of the Cloud Stone steps turned their heads one after another, looking at Ji Yuenian who was walking forward step by step, with inexplicable eyes.

"254th, is this my limit with the Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence?"

Ji Yuenian gradually got used to the violent pressure on the stone steps, and countless thoughts appeared in his heart.

But there were less than ten people in front of him, and most of them had the Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence.

If the 254th rank was his limit, then didn't it mean that these people were stronger than him? Or had they surpassed him?

Thinking of this, Ji Yuenian's face turned expressionless. He forcibly endured the intense pain in the depths of his soul, and stepped another two steps in succession!

256th step!

There were two monsters staying on this stone step, but Ji Yuenian didn't look at them, and continued to climb, placing one foot on the 257th step!

<em class="chakra-text css-0">Boom!

The ferocious and violent wind surged, and directly lifted him off the stone steps!

In an instant, a brilliant golden light flashed around Ji Yuenian's body. He was surrounded by shards of scattered lights; he was forcibly rolled back in the air several feet high, and stopped at the 256th step stone again.

If it weren't for the extraordinary golden profound strength of the Great Compassion Mantra, Ji Yuenian would not have been able to resist this overwhelming wind.

Ji Yuenian's pupil turned a shade darker, and he was rapidly thinking in his heart.

<em class="chakra-text css-0">Where is the problem?

In terms of bloodline, he was superior; in terms of the Grade of Heart Fire, he could also be regarded as someone with a Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence; in terms of cultivating his mind, he had never once fallen behind anyone.

With all these advantages, why was he still lacking so much here?

On the stone steps ahead, several people had already passed the 270th step!

"Brother Shangui, you've already entered the top ten, so there's no need to fight anymore!"

Lu Yao's voice came from afar. Ji Yuenian looked back at him, but suddenly there was a thunderbolt in his mind!

The origin of mountain ghosts!

There was the origin of the mountain ghost that had settled down in his soul!

The origin of the ghost's yin power in the upper realm had been stored in the depths of his soul for a long time by chance, and it was being devoured up by the Heart Fire every moment. However, in Cloud Stone Step, this source of yin force was very likely to cause confusion in the bloodline. Thus, it was directly counted as the lower grade within the bloodline.

The ordinary human bloodline plus the strange bloodline inherited from Zhao Yinyue, together with the origin of the ghost's yin power that blended within his soul, was enough to be judged as an inferior bloodline by the stone step!

As for why it was judged as a high-grade bloodline in the second level, Ji Yuenian was not very clear about this matter, so he could only make a rough guess.

The sixth person had walked through the 270th stone steps, and the first-ranked monster girl had already stepped on the 279th stone steps!

Ji Yuenian was silent for a moment, then directly sat down on the 256th stone step, closed his eyes slightly, and seemed to sink into cultivation.

"What is that person doing?"

"Could it be that he want to make a breakthrough? But the first 300 steps of the Cloud Stone Steps are not affected by the cultivation realm. Could it be that this person doesn't know about this?"

"He's weird!"

Everyone on the stone steps at the rear looked at Ji Yuenian sitting cross-legged on the ground and chattered on.

At the same time, Luoxia Mountains, inside the Chaoxia Hall.

Dozens of huge light curtains were lined up in the mid-air of the main hall, clearly reflecting the various scenes on the stone steps.

There were more than ten mountain peak masters sitting on the throne of the main hall, chatting and laughing with one another, and they all recorded their favorite disciples in the jade talisman from time to time.

The top ten peak masters of the Luoxia Mountains gathered here, plus the peak masters of several other peaks. In total, there were as many as 15 people.

The other hundreds of mountain peak masters were not qualified to come to Chaoxia Hall to select disciples; they could only look at the Cloud Stone Steps on the light curtain in their own mountain hall, and pay attention to them secretly.

If a talented disciple was born in the many peaks of the Outer Sect, then after entering the six mountains and three realms of the Taiyu Temple, the peak master of that mountain would receive rich and incomparable rewards. This was one of the reasons why these peak masters were so active.

"Although Yu Yan is the only fourth rank in the Heart Fire sequence among the hundreds of thousands of souls in the sect entrance examination, it is quite difficult to walk through the 285th stone step."

A peak master looked at the monster girl at the top of the climbing cloud stone steps, and said softly.

"Yes, from the 285th stone step to the 300th stone step, the difficulty of these 15th steps is completely different from the previous 285th steps, and cannot be compared at all."

"That's true."

Several peak masters agreed.

Another peak master moved his eyes slightly, pointing at Ji Yuenian who was sitting with his eyes closed on the 256th stone steps, "Everyone, please look at this person."

At that moment, someone said, "This person is born from a mountain ghost, with a Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence, and his aptitude is acceptable."

The peak master smiled and shook his head, and said, "No, because one of my juniors is with him, I have been paying attention to him, consciously or not, and I just realized that this person had a Grade 6 Heart Fire Sequence. Then, under the temperance of the steps, it turned into a Grade 5 Heart Fire Sequence!"

"What?!"

"Master Xuanyuan, is that true?"

The several peak masters were all shocked, and they all looked at the Peak Master Xuanyuan who spoke out.

Peak Master Xuanyuaodded and said, "The Grade of the Heart Fire Sequence cannot be changed, this is already known throughout the world. It's just that everything has a line of variables, and in the case of extreme coincidences, living beings also can improve their Heart Fire. Because this disciple has this opportunity proves that his luck is not bad, and I want this person."

"I just looked at the people in the front. That's why I let you take the lead!"

"This disciple is really good, but unfortunately he was taken away by Peak Master Xuanyuan."
