An Ultimate Martial Art

Su Ye's judgement was not wrong. From the two teleportation circles, there were one after another teleportation circle. Each teleportation circle could allow a person to move further and further into the west.    

    

Not only would this test result in the appearance of more and more powerful stone golems in the valley, it would also result in more and more powerful demonic beasts threatening their lives as they drew closer to the western region.    

    

After passing through one transmission array, one would be lucky enough not to get entangled by demon beasts. If one was unlucky, they would have to deal with the threat of demon beasts before entering the next valley.    

    

This kind of dual test naturally had an extremely high requirement for one's courage and determination to walk out of the bloody world.    

    

After passing through six valleys in a row.    

    

Su Ye's group originally had 30 people, but their numbers had been reduced by 10.    

    

Those who survived were already filled with fear. They knew it would be very difficult to pass through the Western Wasteland, but they didn't expect it to be this difficult.    

    

They were led by a peerless genius like Su Ye, to such an extent. It was really hard to imagine if they had the chance to pass through the Western Wasteland in their lifetime without Su Ye to lead them. However, the answer was very obvious.    

    

Even if it was Mu Lieshan, the person with the highest cultivation amongst them, if not for the fact that his cultivation had soared after meeting Su Ye, and with Su Ye and the golden-furred man taking care of him, he would not have even made it to the first valley.    

    

If it was said that the first valley they entered from was a true path for the brave, then they were all not qualified to embark on this path.    

    

Every time they recalled this answer, Mu Lieshan and the others could not help but feel a wave of sorrow. Even more so, it was full of grief and indignation. They couldn't understand why the Ancestral Wood Emperor wanted to trap them in the bloody world. It was fine if they were tired, but it was a type of training for their descendants.    

    

Could it be that the Ancestral Wood Emperor's original intention was not to sharpen his descendants, but to trap them, generation after generation, in the bloody world?    

    

In truth, Mu Lieshan and the others were not the only ones who felt confused and indignant. As the valleys rushed past one after another, and they still did not see the place to the west, the danger became more and more intense. Even Su Ye had some suspicions.    

    

One had no idea how many more transmission arrays there were in the valley, or how many more dangers and trials there were in store for them.    

    

Simply speaking, just by going past the sixth valley, the strength of the golem alone had already reached the peak of the Divine Secret Realm, and there were six of them at the same time. Outside the valley, demon beasts with cultivations comparable to the sixth stage of longevity had appeared.    

    

Let alone the commoners of bloody world, even if they were to find people from the Immortal Cultivation World of the two provinces, a large portion of them would probably die in this test.    

    

With the Wood Emperor's power, there was no way he couldn't predict just how weak his descendants would be after being trapped in the bloody world for too long. However, he had set up a path that could be called hellish tempering. What was the Wood Emperor trying to do?    

    

Su Ye could not understand no matter how much he thought about it.    

    

After entering the seventh valley, he was no longer in a hurry to pass the trial. After passing through six valleys, he had fought continuously with demon beasts. Even though there were heavenly dew that were constantly nourishing, he still needed to feel tired. He needed to rest properly.    

    

In any case, there were special restrictions in the valley. As long as they were within the valley's perimeter, the demon beasts outside wouldn't dare to go near, which meant that they would be safe. Furthermore, if they did not take the initiative to provoke the hidden stone puppets in the valley, they would not be tested immediately.    

    

Su Ye suggested that everyone should have a good night's sleep in the valley.    

    

Everyone was tired, so they didn't object.    

    

After finding a place to lie down, they relaxed their tense nerves, and quickly fell into a deep sleep, including Su Ye.    

    

Only Golden Haired did not rest, he laid beside Su Ye, and his eyes were full of vigilance while Su Ye slept.    

    

It had to be said that Golden Fur was the biggest beneficiary of this group. Su Ye worked together to kill the tyrannical demon beasts. The blood essence of those demon beasts had all become the nourishment of the Golden Fur Golden Lion King's bloodline.    

    

With this nourishment, why would the golden-furred man need to rest?    

    

Not only did he not need to rest, his strength had also steadily increased. From the looks of it, this fellow already had the ability to single-handedly kill a demon beast of the seventh layer of Life Destruction. If this fellow had not signed a contract with Su Ye a long time ago, he would not have gone against Su Ye's will.    

    

A day's worth of time soon passed peacefully during everyone's rest. Mu Lieshan and the others all woke up, but Su Ye was actually the last one. He slept for nearly two days before waking up.    

    

There was no other way. After continuously battling so many times, the pressure he had to bear was the greatest. It was naturally not that easy to recover from it. However, after waking up, Su Ye actually felt relaxed, his spirit was fully replenished, and as he activated the fearless Heart Sutra, he was pleasantly surprised to discover, after going through such a round of tempering, his courage had increased by quite a bit, reaching a level of almost forty thousand meters.    

    

Compared to when he was fighting with the huge army of the Thirteen Divisions, his courage had risen by another thousand feet. This cultivation base was comparable to the ordinary 2nd Layer of Life. Adding on his rich Spellpower, his fighting strength would be able to go up against the seven stages of death.    

    

As expected, courage was something that was refined and profound.    

    

Su Ye could not help but think, could it be that the Wood Emperor's intention was to create an environment that would cause people to feel despair in order to force out the greatest amount of courage in the future?    

    

Su Ye thought that it was possible. If he did not cut the jade, he would not be able to create anything, but in the eyes of a powerful figure like the Wood Emperor, he would definitely not have any kind thoughts on training his descendants.    

    

But after Su Ye thought about it carefully, he felt that it was not that simple. After all, there was still a reasonable range to train. For a setup like the Wood Emperor's, it was truly a bit too ruthless. It was too late, as the descendants were all despaired within his setup.    

    

However, no matter how Su Ye thought about it, he just could not understand the underlying meaning of the Wood Emperor's words.    

    

Su Ye couldn't be bothered to think about things that he couldn't figure out at the moment. He invited Mu Lieshan and the others to sit down and take the initiative to chat with them, saying some encouraging words.    

    

There was no way to not encourage them, the despair in Mu Lieshan and the rest had already surfaced on their faces. If they were to continue encouraging them and strengthen their faith in them, it wouldn't be long before all of them collapsed.    

    

With this point, to be honest, Su Ye was regretting bringing them out to the Western Wasteland. However, after all, he was the one who made the decision, and he was the one who agreed to bring them along. It was too late to regret, and there was no way he could send them back.    

    

Besides, even if he could send it back, he wouldn't be able to open his mouth and lose face, right?    

    

Not only could he not send them back, he had to encourage them, strengthen them and strive to bring more people out of the Gate of Ancient Mystery with them.    

    

He first said something to loosen the minds of Mu Lieshan and the others, and then intentionally or unintentionally used the Mu Huang as a cover to trick them, saying that since the Mu Huang had set such a harsh path for the brave, it must have its underlying meaning. They weren't going to solve the riddle of the Wood Emperor's test just for no reason, but they would clench their teeth and persevere.    

    

Needless to say, Su Ye's encouragement still had some effect. When he thought about how it was going to be extremely difficult to cross six valleys and arrive at the seventh, he felt that he might even reach the far west soon. Suddenly, his courage rose as well.    

    

Putting aside Su Ye, Mu Lieshan and the rest who still had nineteen people aside, Mu Lieshan's cultivation had actually shot up to six hundred meters.    

    

The most shocking thing was Mu Xu. Initially, there were thirty of them, but his cultivation was the lowest among them, so much so that he could not even reach the level of Martial Ancestor Realm. Those stronger than him had died to the claws of the demon beasts, yet he did not die. Not only did he not die, but his strength and cultivation had increased by leaps and bounds after being tempered. Now, he only had the courage of seven hundred meters after Mu Lieshan.    

    

With courage of 700 meters, if he could return to the Thirteen Divisions right now, with just Mu Xu's cultivation alone, he would immediately become a terrifying existence that could shake the Thirteen Divisions. It would not be exaggerating to say that he was the number one person in the world, and after Su Ye singlehandedly annihilated the huge army of tens of thousands and destroyed the 13 dynasties, the new 13 dynasties would definitely not take the initiative to provoke Mu Xu.    

    

The others had also improved quite a bit. Even the weakest of them now had more than three thousand feet of courage.    

    

Seeing that they had stabilized, Su Ye heaved a sigh of relief. He spent a few days teaching them some Spellpower to increase their fighting capabilities. After that, the seventh valley's trial officially began.    

    

The test of the valley was still the golem, but the ferociousness of the golem was beyond Su Ye's expectations.    

    

There were a total of nine stone puppets, and each one was at the first level of immortality. However, each stone puppet grasped a type of fist technique, and each one was different. However, they could coordinate with each other to form a large offensive formation, and could almost combine to form an attack that was not inferior to the Emperor grade divine ability.    

    

The most terrifying thing was that the combined attack array formed by the nine golems had covered the entire valley. Unless someone could break through the attack array, there was no way to stop the golem like in the valley and let the rest enter the transfer array first.    

    

Fortunately, to Su Ye, this was not much.    

    

With his fighting strength, he did not need the aid of the golden hair, and after a short while, he destroyed the formation, and easily brought Mu Lieshan and the rest into the teleportation circle.    

    

This was all because Su Ye was overjoyed at the sight, he spent some time during the fight to peek into the secrets of the golems, using this as an opportunity to enrich himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't even need to waste that small amount of time.    

    

Most probably, even the Wood Emperor who had set up these restrictions did not expect that there would be such a monster like Su Ye in this world.    

    

However, Su Ye never expected that after rushing through these seven valleys, the teleportation formation would not send them to the next one …
