Chapter 131: Wake Up
In the ancient monument, there are countless buildings scattered around, all of which have a very long history and hidden opportunities. However, the most lively area is the area covered by the dark iron tower that stands eternally in the center of the ancient monument.
It is rumored that a year ago, there was a peerless figure of the human race, with peerless elegance and supreme talent, who strongly suppressed the young master of the Qingtian Beast Clan at that time and killed him.
He became famous in one battle, and since then he has been a great figure in the ancient monument. Everyone knows his name. The name of the peerless figure is Qin Xuan.
Later, before the peerless figure descended on the black tower, he was at the eighth level of Kaiyuan Realm. He suppressed the four great geniuses at that time with his aura, walked into the black tower calmly, and challenged the legendary bluestone platform test.
Now, a year has passed, and the demon clan genius in the ancient monument has been replaced twice. The old people who had seen the peerless figure before have also left. Now there are new faces in the ancient monument, and no one has really seen the peerless figure.
Even so, there are still many stories about that peerless figure that have been passed down, and everyone knows about them. Although they have not seen that peerless figure in person, they are already familiar with everything about him, including his appearance, clothing, and the power of cultivation.
Every day, many people practice in the Black Tower area, not only to admire the majesty of the Black Tower, but also to hope to see that peerless figure. Even though he may have left the ancient ruins, their obsession remains.
Today's Black Tower area is particularly lively compared to usual. Countless demon clan geniuses gathered here, all of whom have transcendent temperaments and powerful cultivations, standing proudly in front of the Black Tower.
They are the most outstanding group of geniuses from the major demon clans, who come to the ancient ruins to shine and prove themselves.
At this time, countless eyes fell on the Black Tower in front, with excitement jumping in their eyes, as if they were looking forward to something happening. Although today is the day when the three great geniuses enter the Black Tower, most people still talk about Qin Xuan's deeds, and the voices are endless.
"A year has passed, and today three more Tianjiao will enter the Black Tower to challenge the test of the Bluestone Platform. Time flies!" A young man sighed.
"Time flies, but it is difficult for a person like that person to appear again. I really want to see what he looks like with my own eyes, and whether he has three heads and six arms." A person next to him also sighed.
"I guess he is also among the top of the human race. It is said that he comes from the Broken Soul Mountain, which is in the territory of Tianyu Country." Another person said.
"No matter where he is, the power of the seven artistic conceptions is absolutely invincible."
The discussion in the crowd came one after another, mostly words of praise and admiration, but some people disagreed, thinking that this was purely exaggerated, how could it be so exaggerated.
At this time, in front of the Black Tower, there were three young figures standing there, with handsome faces, majestic bearing, and a bright halo shining around them, which was extremely extraordinary.
"Let's go in." The person in the middle said to the two people next to him.
"Yeah." Both of them nodded and walked towards the black tower, with upright bodies and solemn expressions.
Today they were also going to enter the legendary bluestone platform for the test. They were very curious about what opportunities existed there.
But just as the three were about to enter the black tower, a strong light suddenly emerged from the black tower. It was extremely bright, like a divine light from the sky, and it exuded a sacred aura, which made the three people step back a few steps, their faces horrified.
When the crowd saw this scene, they were deeply shocked. What did it mean that a strong light descended from the black tower?
At this moment, countless people's eyes gathered together and fell on the sacred light, with sharpness shining in their eyes.
Everyone found that in the light, a slender figure could be vaguely seen standing there, but the light was too bright to see his face clearly. He only stood with his hands behind his back, as if looking up at the sky, his whole body bathed in the glory, revealing supreme aura, like an emperor.
"Who is he?" Someone in the crowd asked.
"I don't know, but he must be a peerless figure, otherwise he would be so dazzling and bathed in glory." Someone responded in a low voice with rapid breathing.
Suddenly, someone's eyes suddenly shot out a ray of light, and asked uncertainly: "Could it be...he came out?"
This voice was like lightning in the night sky, striking the hearts of countless people. The hearts of countless people couldn't help but tremble, staring at the radiant figure in front of them. Could it really be him?
Not only the young demons who were watching, but even the three great geniuses standing in the front were shocked at this time. They were the closest and felt the most deeply.
The figure seemed to be standing there casually, but it faintly revealed an invisible pressure, not from the suppression of strength, but like aura. They only felt that they were not facing a person, just like the vast sky, dominating the world and shocking the universe.
This figure covered with sacred light was naturally Qin Xuan. He was directly teleported out from the inside of the black tower by this divine light. At this time, he was still immersed in perception, so he did not come out.
After a long time, Qin Xuan finally opened his eyes. A purple-gold light flashed in his eyes, and a brilliant smile appeared on his handsome face. Just now, he realized a trace of the truth of the great way contained in the divine light, which made his blue pupils evolve and turn into purple-gold.
Raising his feet, with a smile on his face, Qin Xuan stepped out of the light and walked towards the outside of the black tower.
"He moved!" The crowd's hearts trembled again. Can they finally see what that person looks like?
Qin Xuan walked out of the black tower and saw the scene in front of him. His expression froze for a moment, but he soon understood it, and his heart couldn't help but stir up a wave.
It's been a year. Is there anyone coming to challenge the Bluestone Platform again today?
Thinking that the so-called Bluestone Platform test was just a lie, Qin Xuan smiled and shook his head, and walked in another direction, like a bystander who didn't belong here.
And as Qin Xuan got closer and closer to the crowd, his handsome face was also reflected in everyone's pupils. At this moment, countless people held their breath and stared at Qin Xuan, revealing a strong disbelief. How could he be so young?
Handsome, dressed in white, such an extraordinary temperament, so young, all of this seemed to be pointing to a possibility in everyone's hearts. He was the peerless figure.
"May I ask your name?" The three great prodigies in front of him, one of them clasped his fists and said, as if he had thought of that possibility.
He saw at a glance that Qin Xuan's cultivation was at the peak of Kaiyuan Realm, and he had not broken through the Yuanfu Realm, which was similar to his. Therefore, although his tone was respectful, he asked with an attitude of equal level.
Qin Xuan paused slightly after hearing this, turned his eyes, looked at the young man's somewhat excited face, and slowly said: "Qin Xuan."
Qin Xuan!
At this moment, everyone's heart was beating wildly, and brilliant sparks bloomed in their eyes. This figure in white was called Qin Xuan!
Now even those who didn't take the rumors about Qin Xuan seriously began to waver. They actually saw the legendary peerless figure with their own eyes today. It was really incredible!
"I have heard that your peerless style is peerless, and you have comprehended the power of seven artistic conceptions. I admire you very much. I wonder if you can show me one or two?" The demon youth clasped his fists and said.
Qin Xuan was stunned. How did this person know that he had comprehended seven artistic conceptions?
Suddenly Qin Xuan thought of a possibility, frowned, and asked the man: "Why do you practice?"
"Practice to strengthen yourself, you can peek into the mysteries of the way of heaven, possess the magical power of all laws, and it's only a thought to travel the world." He answered, his eyes were sharp.
"Let me ask you again, can your current cultivation level reach what you just said?" Qin Xuan asked again, staring at the man with a sharp gaze.
The young man saw Qin Xuan's eyes, and his heart couldn't help but shudder, and replied: "Of course not."
"Since you know this, why are you obsessed with other people's abilities?" Qin Xuan asked again, and the young man took a step back, his heart and soul trembling.
"Only when you are strong yourself can you truly practice. If you want to challenge Qingshitai, you must have a good talent. If you are willing to practice hard, you may achieve some success. I have said all, you can do it yourself." Qin Xuan took a step forward, his tone more powerful.
Qin Xuan's words exploded in the young man's mind like a thunder, and kept echoing, making him look dazed.
He and Qin Xuan had similar cultivation, but he couldn't bear Qin Xuan's voice. How big was the gap between the two.
After the voice fell completely, Qin Xuan's long gown fluttered, and his footsteps stepped forward. The state of mind of the wind enveloped his whole body, and he traveled a thousand miles in an instant, but disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
Everyone's heart suddenly calmed down at this moment. Qin Xuan's words just now were not just said to that person, but to all of them.
What is cultivation?
Although they knew the answer, they were lost in the path of cultivation. They did not stick to their original intentions, but immersed themselves in the strength of others. They used the strength of others to comfort their unattainable dreams. How ridiculous!
Although Qin Xuan's strength far exceeded theirs, he was still a peer, but he saw the path of cultivation so thoroughly. In comparison, they were too far apart.
In fact, their path of cultivation was not wrong from the beginning.
They were originally the top geniuses of each demon clan, and their ambitions were high. However, when they came to the ancient ruins and met peers who were stronger and better than themselves, it was difficult for them to maintain a balanced state of mind. They were easily immersed in the strength of others to cover up their inferiority complex, and their cultivation path naturally began to deviate.
"It seems that I have been wrong all along. Cultivation pursues self-strength, and the strength of others has nothing to do with me." A person showed a self-mockery at the corner of his mouth, and then turned and left.
Then, many people left one after another. Although they left in different directions, they all had relaxed smiles on their faces, as if they had returned to their original selves.
