It has to be said that Ye Wushuang’s rate of improvement was extremely rapid.

Qin Muyu and Li Wenqing were almost numbed by Ye Wushuang’s advancement. Ye Wushuang had reached the second level of the Guiyuan Realm and achieved a minor accomplishment in sword intent. Such a speed was truly incredible.

Just over four months ago, Ye Wushuang was only at the ninth level of the Tian Gang Realm. In these four months, an ordinary warrior might not even be able to advance to the first level of the Wanfa Realm. It could be said that Ye Wushuang had traversed a path that might take others a lifetime in just over four months.

During this exploration of the Celestial and Earthly Gates, among the young and talented figures in Qingzhou, there were only a few. The vast majority were the older generation at the Tian Gang Realm and Wanfa Realm levels. Those people wouldn’t have risked their lives in this deadly place if their lifespan hadn’t reached its limit. What was the end for them was merely the starting point for Ye Wushuang.

Boom…

Having reached the second level of the Guiyuan Realm and achieved a minor accomplishment in sword intent, Ye Wushuang, holding the Tianyan Sword, charged towards the remaining Wind Demon Spirit Wolves. His speed was even faster, and his explosive power was stronger.

One after another, the nine Wind Demon Spirit Wolves fell to the ground, and blood gradually seeped into the ground beside their corpses.

Only then did Qi Zhiyan, Wu Xueqing, Mu Qingqian, Lin Qingfeng and the others react and look at Ye Wushuang not far away.

“This guy…”

Qi Zhiyan let out a long breath and slowly said, “He’s already at the second level…”

Xu Ziqian had told her that Ye Wushuang had only reached the first level a few days ago. It was much more difficult to advance in the Guiyuan Realm compared to the Wanfa Realm and Tian Gang Realm. Transforming spiritual energy into Guiyuan energy and integrating it with oneself was a much higher-level difficulty, more than two levels higher than transforming the power of the Tian Gang. Even Qi Zhiyan, Wu Xueqing and other talented figures couldn’t advance as quickly as they did in the Wanfa Realm. But Ye Wushuang seemed to be completely unaffected.

“Everyone, take a rest and recover quickly.”

Ye Wushuang stood at the front with his sword in hand and looked upwards. In the dense jungle, it was uncertain whether there would be more spirit beasts blocking their way. They were only a little over a hundred zhang up this thousand-zhang mountain, not even reaching two hundred zhang.

About half an hour later, they set off again. Dozens of warriors at the Guiyuan Realm were in the front, and hundreds of warriors at the Wanfa Realm followed behind. They continued to move forward along the southern slope. Everyone climbed up one zhang at a time…

When they reached a height of three hundred zhang, there was no strange occurrence or danger along the way. Instead, the forest became sparser.

At a height of three hundred zhang, Ye Wushuang stood on a rock and looked into the distance towards the higher part. Qi Zhiyan, Wu Xueqing, Mu Qingqian, Lin Qingfeng and others gathered around.

“There’s no danger on this part of the journey. It’s very strange…”

Wu Xueqing frowned. Despite her worried expression, she was still charming. She slowly said, “Could there be a greater crisis ahead?”

“It’s possible.”

Xuan Honglang said, “The more peaceful it seems, the more cautious we should be.”

“Yeah.”

After a short rest, they set off again. They reached a height of five hundred zhang, and there was still no danger. However, when they reached five hundred zhang, the mountain body seemed to suddenly shrink in size. It was as if this thousand-zhang mountain had been cut in half and a new mountain peak had been attached. As a result, at the halfway point of the mountain, there was a circular flat area that was about a hundred zhang deep. At the end of the flat area, there was a stone wall that was thirty zhang high. When looking left and right, stone statues seemed to be embedded in the surface of the mountain, integrating with the mountain body.

Everyone approached the mountain body cautiously.

“This stone wall is so high…”

“And the patterns engraved on the surface seem to have fluctuations of power.”

“How can we continue climbing?”

“Could it be that the path ends here?”

Everyone started discussing.

Ye Wushuang looked around.

“Divide into two groups. One group starts from the left, and the other from the right. Let’s see if we can meet up. If there’s no path ahead, retreat.”

Upon hearing Ye Wushuang’s words, everyone nodded. They treated Ye Wushuang’s words as commands. After all, Ye Wushuang was powerful, and when dealing with the Black and White Green-Eyed Snakes and Wind Demon Spirit Wolves, Ye Wushuang always took the lead.

Soon, Ye Wushuang led one group, and Wu Xueqing, Qi Zhiyan and others led the other group, setting off from the left and right respectively. They walked carefully along the edge of the stone wall, not daring to be careless.

About half an hour later, the two groups met on the other side of the mountain body.

“It’s all connected…”

“There must be some mystery in this mountain body that’s blocking us from reaching the mountain peak for investigation.”

“Maybe this is the key to leaving this place.”

“But now we’re blocked by this tall stone wall. How can we climb to the top?”

Some people had already tried to climb the stone wall and continue climbing the upper part of the mountain, but they failed. Some people climbed along the stone wall. At first, the thirty-zhang-high stone wall seemed endless as they climbed, and they couldn’t reach the top. Others were attacked by the forbidden patterns engraved on the stone wall when they got close to it. This impenetrable stone wall blocked the way forward for everyone.

“What should we do now?”

Huan Tianxin, Xu Ziqian and others habitually looked at Ye Wushuang. Every time in such situations, Ye Wushuang could always bring surprises.

Ye Wushuang didn’t say anything. He approached the stone wall and nimbly formed streams of spiritual patterns with his ten fingers. Now that he had reached the second level of the Guiyuan Realm, the number of spiritual patterns Ye Wushuang could condense had already exceeded thirty thousand. In the art of spiritual array masters, the number of spiritual patterns that could be condensed was related to the upper limit of the spiritual arrays that a spiritual array master could form. For example, a fourth-level spiritual array master, corresponding to the Wanfa Realm, could condense spiritual patterns starting from ten thousand, with a limit of thirty thousand. Between ten thousand and thirty thousand spiritual patterns, the more spiritual patterns were condensed and embedded in the spiritual array, the stronger the spiritual array would be. Of course, this was just the most intuitive manifestation. The art of spiritual arrays was mysterious and unfathomable, and spiritual patterns were just the most basic indication of the strength of a spiritual array master.

Ye Wushuang continuously condensed spiritual patterns, and his internal spiritual energy was constantly being consumed. Soon, the spiritual patterns surrounding his body reached forty thousand! Forty thousand spiritual patterns was already extremely astonishing. After all, Ye Wushuang was only at the second level of the Guiyuan Realm.

“Heaven and Earth, profound spirits. All things obey my command. Where my heart desires, there I shall go. Mysterious and profound…”

As Ye Wushuang murmured these words, the more than forty thousand spiritual patterns spread out along the wall, wriggling like spiritual snakes…
