Weapon Master

”Senior apprentice-brother …”

Yuan Chao frowned and looked at Gu Daozi.

In terms of seniority, Gu Daozi was far above Yuan Chao. However, ever since Yuan Chao had also become a peak Upper Sky Sovereign, the two Great Elders had always called him Master and Brother. Of course, for an Empyrean like Wei Xuanji, in front of the two of them, he still considered himself as a junior.

After all, the difference in cultivation level and strength between Wei Xuanji, Gu Daozi, and Yuan Chao was simply too great.

Originally, Yuan Chao wanted to use this method to force Tang Huan to explore the path ahead and see clearly the situation inside the Cloud Mist Passage. Before this, when Tang Huan had safely passed through the thousands of meters long tunnel and arrived at the mountain peak on the other side, he had subconsciously felt that the passage was not dangerous, but could very possibly be the mountain peak.

However, what happened to Dai Yi next completely overturned his judgement.

The distance between Tang Huan and Dai Yi to enter the cloud passage wasn’t very long, but the two of them had encountered the exact opposite. The former smoothly walked through the entire cloud passage, while the latter had only taken a few steps before her own life was taken away. One in front, one in back. This was a huge contrast.

Not only was the scene just now chilling, it was also unfathomable.

Upon hearing Yuan Chao inquiring about Gu Daozi, the crowd also quieted down subconsciously. The gazes of the crowd landed on the top ranker on the leaderboard.

As the strongest warrior in the Heaven Realm, Gu Daozi might be able to see more.

Gu Daozi remained silent for a while, before finally sighing under the watchful eyes of the crowd, ”If I’m not wrong, the danger hidden in the Cloud Mist Passage is changing at any time. Not to mention two people going in one after the other, even if two people went in at the same time, the risk would still be very different.”

When everyone heard this, they could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

”So that means, even if we completely memorize the route Tang Huan took earlier and follow it, it’s still useless?” Wei Xuanji said with a frown.

”That’s right.”

Gu Daozi slightly nodded, and lightly smiled, ”Dai Yi is following Tang Huan’s route. However, you all have also seen his fate. If there is anyone else who wants to use this method to pass through the Cloud Mist Passage and reach the mountain on the other side, they will definitely die in the end. ”

Everyone was silent and their expressions were different.

They all had similar guesses about Dai Yi’s encounters, but they all had a little bit of hope in their hearts. They all felt that the reason that Dai Yi had turned into dust so quickly was probably because of his bad luck.

After all, when Tang Huan was walking in the Cloud Mist Passage, nothing unexpected had happened.

However, Gu Daozi’s words broke their fantasies.

”Then why hasn’t Tang Huan encountered any danger at all? Could it be because he has a celestial body? ”

After a while, Wei Xuanji took a deep breath and asked in disbelief.

This was also what Wei Xuanji found most difficult to comprehend. When Tang Huan had walked for such a long period of time, the cloud and mist passage was extremely calm and peaceful without the slightest ripple. This was the only possibility he could think of. One must know that this test was prepared for ancient immortals by the ”Immortal Spirit Ancestral Court”.

Tang Huan had an Immortal body and was considered an Ancient Immortal by the Ancestral Court.

Maybe it was because of this that Tang Huan was able to finish the Cloud Mist Passage safe and sound, but there was still a part of it that did not make sense.

”Because Tang Huan could determine where the danger is, so she avoided it.” Gu Daozi faintly sighed.

”What?”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

One could tell from Dai Yi’s encounter just now that there was more than one hidden danger within the passageway. After all, Tang Huan was a Ranker ranked 12, her strength was extremely strong, and was able to avoid all the dangers in the tunnels, which was kind of shocking.

After a short period of hustle and bustle, the stage descended into a deathly silence once more.

”Everyone, there’s no need to be so timid.”

After a long while, a cold laugh sounded out. ”Tang Huan is ranked twelfth, but he was able to sense the danger in the Cloud Mist Passage ahead of time.

The person who spoke was none other than Yun Xiu of the ”Myriad Dragon Sword Sect”, ranked eighth on the ranking list.

”Brother Yun, do you mean to say that you wish to enter this Cloud Mist Passage to give it a try?” A young and handsome man in white clothes suddenly spoke up.

”Exactly.”

Yun Xiu said in a deep voice, ”This old man wants to see what’s so strange about this cloud tunnel!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Xiu’s body shot forward like a beam of light, like a bolt of lightning. In the next moment, his feet landed on the cloud path.

At this moment, the many Ascendants on the platform were all staring at Yun Xiu’s figure without blinking. This Yun Xiu had previously been ranked first on the Honored Warrior Board. Although his ranking was constantly declining, his strength still far surpassed that of Dai Yi. Therefore, he didn’t think that he would lose so quickly.

Of course, Dai Yi’s ranking wasn’t that low.

He felt that Tang Huan was safe and sound from the start to the end, and the reason why she had followed’s path to leave this place, was also because he felt that Tang Huan would be safe and sound. In the end, danger had arrived and he was caught off guard, unable to dodge in time. Otherwise, a mighty Empyrean level super powerhouse, even if she couldn’t escape death in the end, shouldn’t have died such a useless death.

At this moment, on the cloud path, Yun Xiu’s expression turned serious as his heart became calm.

Although he was extremely confident in his own strength, he had seen Dai Yi’s previous mistakes, so he didn’t dare to act rashly. In almost the instant he rushed out of the stage, his mind had already been pushed to the limits. What comforted him was that his mind still had some use for this passage of clouds.

However, the limit that he could feel right now was only two meters around him.

Compared to an Empyrean level powerhouse, this range of perception was pitiful to the extreme. In this place, it was far better than nothing. At a critical moment, this two meter radius might have a life-saving effect. Of course, that was only if the reaction speed was fast enough.

Taking a deep breath, Yun Xiu began to move.

In the next moment, Yun Xiu knew why Tang Huan was moving forward like a normal person when she entered the Cloud Mist Passage. After entering the area of the tunnel, it was as if there were ten thousand jin boulders tied to each of her feet. It was difficult for him to even move forward. She was simply unable to unleash her speed.

Not only that, the space around him was also incomparably solid. It would be impossible to traverse this distance using spatial teleportation.
