Chapter 117: Jiu You Tai

  This is purely an unexpected pleasure.

  A surprising and delightful surprise.

  Xia Lin looked at the book in his hand with an unbelievable expression, on which was written "You You Man Bu" (Wandering Aimlessly) in four big characters, and suddenly felt a little surprised, could it be...

  He opened it and found it was just as he had expected - a manual of footwork and martial techniques!

  "What's going on..." Xia Lin said somewhat dazed, could it be that this Yellow Spring Secret Realm was truly a trial left behind by the seniors to test their juniors, and this martial skill was the final benefit?

  "Or perhaps, fake?"

  Xia Lin opened the book of "You You Man Bu", this extremely comfortable name, recorded the route inside, and then his mind moved, he arrived at the Chuan Cheng Temple.

  He arrived at the Hundred Refining Pavilion.

  Xia Lin looked to the right and saw that the four words "You You Man Bu" were already listed on the martial arts book on the right side.

  Wandering aimlessly, top-notch martial skills of the third rank, control level: none.

  "Are these three items top-notch?"

  Xia Lin was somewhat astonished, this seemed to be the most advanced martial skill he had mastered so far! And getting it in this way always made him feel quite inexplicable.

  If he had obtained this high-quality martial skill after a thousand hardships and killings, he would naturally be overjoyed, but at this time... it was almost as if he had picked up such a high-end martial skill by chance, how could he not feel depressed.

  When you're short of money, you suddenly pick up 1 million, dare to spend it?

  Fortunately, there was a transmission hall inside, which allowed him to easily detect the authenticity of this martial skill.

  "It's really true... Has good luck suddenly arrived?" Xia Lin guessed, apparently unaware that his own notorious reputation had already spread far and wide...

  Since the step method is true, then it doesn't matter, Xia Lin shrugged indifferently and lightly poked at the wandering steps.

  The surrounding scenery changes.

  The familiar desolate world appeared before his eyes once again, with the sturdy physique of the barbarian teacher standing steadily in the middle.

  "Three top-notch... Let me see, your charm!"

  "Boom!"

  The barbarian teacher took a step forward, seemingly very slow, as light as the wind, and his feet didn't seem to be steady at all, but this one step made the barbarian teacher's body float tens of meters away.

  "Wow! So fast."

  Xia's eyes widened as he watched the barbarian teacher's every move.

  One step, two steps, as if strolling, the barbarian teacher walked leisurely, extremely airy, but that one step's stride was extremely large. If you ignore his figure and only feel this speed, you will find that a person's shadow is rapidly dashing in response, extremely fast!

  "A very discordant feeling."

  Xia Linzhuo said, "It's fast, yet it gives people a very slow feeling. The figure keeps advancing, but it makes people feel like the movement is light and airy... This wandering step, it's indeed a top-notch martial skill of the third rank."

  Is this martial skill supposed to be used by warriors? Is it okay for him to use it like that?

  Although he had no contact with it, he also knew that the general step method of martial arts was also very hierarchical, and as his strength increased, he would gradually improve, and after practicing to the extreme, he would be extremely powerful.

  But what's with this aimless wandering?

  No distinction of levels, no distinction of ranks, and no confusing mind methods, from start to finish, there is only one step!

  Master this step and every subsequent step will be extremely formidable.

  Walking among countless enemies like the god of death.

  This is an introduction to Yu You Wan Bu.

  Like Death itself walking, can it really be?

  Looking at the barbarian teacher, there was no improvement whatsoever. Apparently, this martial skill should be flawless and universally applicable to all warriors; otherwise, the barbarian teacher would have long since remade him from scratch.

  "Then let's give it a try."

  Xia Lin attempted to run the Youyou Manbu's movement within the Bai Lian Pavilion, then stepped out.

  "Crack!"

  Xia Lin directly crashed into the wall of Bai Lian Pavilion, looking disheveled and embarrassed.

  "My gosh, too fast."

  One step, two steps, Xia Lin was rampaging here, recklessly charging and colliding everywhere within the Hundred Refining Pavilion. Fortunately, this was also a place of profound spiritual awareness; otherwise, if placed in reality, Xia Lin would have unknowingly caused destruction beyond recognition.

  Like a death god wandering around, are you sure it's not to go see the death god yourself? After being hit seven times eight times, Xia Lin said faintly.

  Fortunately, Xia Lin's tenacity was extremely strong, and the opportunity to fight for five years still remembered vividly. A mere martial skill wouldn't make him easily discouraged. It wasn't until he had ravaged every corner of the Hundred Refining Pavilion that Xia Lin gradually grasped the secrets of the Unseen Steps.

  "As expected... This speed is at least twice as fast!"

  Xia Lin exclaimed with surprise, although his grasp of the "Wandering Steps" was still only at the beginner level, but his current speed had already increased by more than double compared to before. If he were to encounter a Blue Fish Monster again, he wouldn't have to exert himself so much.

  Coming out of the Hall of Legacy, Xia Lin still felt as if she was in a dream.

  "A dream?"

  Subconsciously started a stroll.

  "Boom!"

  Xia Lin directly stuck to the wall of the passage and bumped out a hole.

  "Really..."

  The speed is also up!

  Xia subconsciously took a glance at Benming Xingchen's power.

  Power, Three Stages, First Section.

  Defense, third rank seventh class.

  Speed, second-order eight sections.

  Reaction, second-order five-stage.

  Spiritual power, zero rank zero stage.

  The group's strength increased by two levels, which should be the effect of breaking through the fifth and sixth layers of Quenching Body. What surprised Xia Lin was the speed! It had actually increased by three segments extra.

  "When did you level up? While wandering around?"

  Xia calculated silently in her heart, now that her current strength is getting closer to Jianghe's, if she uses Nianhun to attack, it will comprehensively improve by a segment!

  "Rivers! I look forward to meeting you again!"

  As he continued to walk forward from the passage, he hadn't gone out yet when Xia Lin saw a vast expanse of white fog. It wasn't until he walked all the way to the entrance that he was shocked to discover what kind of world appeared before his eyes!

  The cave entrance he was in was more than ten meters above the ground, and below it, the river water flowed out of the Yellow Spring Road, gathering towards the front. This is not a surprising scene, but if the Yellow Spring Road is not just one... then it's a breathtaking scene.

  Innumerable yellow spring roads surround a vast spring water, innumerable rivers flow from the periphery to gather here, and then pour into the central spring water, disappearing without a trace, unknown where they sank.

  Ten thousand rivers converge into one line, this is the scene Xia Lin saw, and it converges to the center of the circle he previously judged, but it didn't cause any ripples.

  It's really strange... where did all that water go?

  And above.

  Every cave entrance, like his, was on the mountain rocks around it, surrounded by a circle, countless cave entrances facing outwards. Apparently, this is the path that the warrior himself walked out of.

  The path of a warrior is but one iron chain!

  From each of the holes, stretching to the top of the spring! Countless chains converge above the spring, connecting to a massive platform with a diameter of nearly 300 meters, pulled tightly, straight and without any swaying.

  Xia Lin tried kicking it, and it was as solid as a rock! It wasn't like those rickety iron chain bridges at all.

  Something doesn't feel right.

  Xia Lin murmured, "The center of the Huangquan Secret Realm is a mysterious spring water that collects all the river water in the realm. I can understand that. But... what's with the platform right above the spring water?"

  From each of the holes, there is a chain that leads directly to it. Does this mean everyone has to go up onto the stage?

  Then engage in a fierce battle?

  Narrow road meet brave win? Funny?

  Xia Lin didn't want to make such a meaningless sacrifice, "Wait... Meaningless?!"

  Recalling the various temptations and ambushes along the way, Xia Lin firmly did not believe that in the end there would be nothing left, and following the central platform, he forgot to go. Indeed, at the center of the platform, a radiant long gun was floating there, as if hiding endless temptation.

  "This thing......" Xia Lin narrowed his eyes and took a closer look, suddenly shocked, with waves of astonishment surging in his heart. "Fourth-grade attack Xuan Treasure! The power of this thing is too terrifying, if let the Return to Origin Realm get it, it can absolutely slaughter all directions!"

  "Damn it... Is this really the Netherworld? Why... The more I think about it, the more it feels like a conspiracy!"

  "All sorts of temptations on the road, countless warriors have died. Now, a four-star weapon is placed here, allowing the last remaining warriors to fight each other! In the end, how many people can still be left?"

  If it was just a guess at first, Xia Lin can now be sure that there is definitely someone behind all of this manipulating everything! Because all of this really does seem like a game.

  What's more, looking at hundreds of holes... they are all exactly the same!

  The same distance, really damn balanced!

  Isn't the Yellow Spring Secret Realm formed naturally?

  When nature creates a Huangquan secret realm, can you still use a ruler to measure it? With hundreds of cave entrances, do they all have to be roughly the same size and distance apart?

  Who is this fooling?

  Xia Lin crouched down slightly, her ears listening to the movements at all the cave entrances, and for the time being, no one rushed out.

  Xia Lin jumped onto the platform and arrived in front of a table in the middle, on which were engraved three characters: Jiuyou Tai.

  Jiuyou Tower? Xia Lin furrowed his brow and stretched out his hand, wanting to grab the long spear.

  "Whoosh!"

  Like a flash of white lightning, but it was as if I had been electrocuted, and my fingers felt numb.

  Only one protective cover appeared, covering the long gun.

  "As expected, there's something protecting it." Xia Lin was no exception, stretching out his hand to press against the protective cover, his blood energy surging as he began to devour this layer of barrier. This move was all too familiar to him.

  The entire Yellow Spring Secret Realm's barrier was crippled by him, and a mere Xuanbao's protective shield could only withstand so much.

  However, Xia Lin made some progress, but frowned slightly. This thing seemed to be breakable by anyone, but it just took too long to consume time. It would probably take about an hour for the blood energy to break through this protective cover.

  "One hour... Someone will definitely come soon, and it's a good calculation." Xia Lin sneered, even his blood energy needed an hour, let alone ordinary Xuan energy?!

  Isn't it going to take even longer?

  Does this mean... that if you want to get this long gun, you must... kill everyone, before you can safely take it?

  Xia Lin Yue thought more and felt more terrified, no matter who was manipulating behind the scenes, it must be very frightening.

  It's just that the Yellow Spring Secret Realm hasn't been opened for many years now, and the person who designed all of this, I don't know if they're still alive.

  "Really?"

  Summer is approaching, something's brewing!

  Youyu took a stroll, connecting several strolls. Xia Lin suddenly left the stage and returned to the mountain cave.

  He quietly retreated a bit, making himself more concealed. With hundreds of holes here, as long as he didn't stupidly stick his head out to show off, he wouldn't be targeted.

  From a hole on the left, rhythmic sounds came, and after reaching the hole, it seemed to stop as well. After a moment, as if noticing Xuan Bao on the platform, he rushed out suddenly.

  A dazzling white line flashed by, and a middle-aged man with a head of white hair appeared on the Ninth Layer Platform, rushing directly towards the Xuan Treasure in the center, apparently also planned in the cave.

  "Whoosh!"

  Dazzling white light flashed by, and the middle-aged man was also shocked. He stared at the protective cover for a long time, still in shock, then suddenly put his hand on it, and the mysterious energy covered the entire protective cover.

  "This aura... Returning to the Origin Realm?!" Xia Lin's eyes widened as he stared at the middle-aged man surrounded by a surging aura, taking note of him. White-haired middle-aged man, Returning to the Origin Realm.

  Seeing the middle-aged man start to remove his protective mask, Xia Lin was no longer worried and sat cross-legged, silently waiting.

  How come that long gun is so easy to hold?

  As this strong man rushed over from the Return to Origin Realm, Xia Lin suddenly understood one thing - the first wave to arrive must be the Return to Origin Realm!

  Iron chain bridge, ice and snow world, apparently nothing can stop the return to the yuan boundary, if they rush forward with one heart, basically unimpeded!

  The only thing that poses a threat is the blue fish monster in the icy world, but apparently, if the Yuanyuan realm wants to escape, it can definitely walk away easily.

  This is after all a secret realm, not a forbidden land.

  The appearance of the fish monster is just a hindrance. In general, in this kind of secret realm, the most dangerous thing is human!

  Killing each other for treasure!

  This is the most dangerous place in the secret realm.

  However, the Yellow Spring Secret Realm separates everyone as soon as they enter, supposedly to prevent slaughter and allow each person to gain something, but in the end, Jiuyou Terrace is very strange.

  It seems as if they deliberately gathered everyone together for mutual slaughter.

  Xia Lin was puzzled and analyzed it again, or... were these originally existing in the Huangquan Secret Realm itself, but later altered?

  Not likely!

  Xia Lin smiled and shook his head, "This Huangquan Secret Realm doesn't know how many years it's been since someone came here, the other branches of Bili Huangquan are not the same as this Huangquan Secret Realm. In this situation, how could anyone have changed?"

  Xia Lin shook her head, trying to abandon this absurd idea.

  But for some reason, he suddenly remembered the yellow fish monster and took out the token on his body. The image of the fish monster on it was vivid and lifelike.

  "Fish monster..."

  "Could it be... these fish monsters?!"
