Gu Yan looked down and found that she was still holding the dagger. She did not know when she had cut her arm a few times and it was bleeding. It was precisely because of the pain that she completely walked out of the illusion.
She panted heavily and took out gauze from her backpack. She simply tied up the wound first.
After stopping the bleeding, Gu Yan looked around and found that she was in front of a huge iron door. There were lifelike animals carved on the iron door.
It looked very strange, which Gu Yan had never seen before.
In the middle of the front door, there was a huge black stone. The stone seemed to be a tower. From the bottom to the top, it became smaller and smaller. Each floor was distinct. At first glance, it seemed to be a nine-story tower.
Gu Yan slowly approached. Just as her hand was about to touch the tower, a voice suddenly came from behind her.
“That’s the nine spirit tower that tests spiritual roots. When we first arrived at the gate of immortality, the disciples who passed the Heaven Ladder Test would test their spiritual roots here.”
Liu Xingyun looked like he was one or two years younger. Although he looked a little disheveled, his voice was still steady.
Apart from the mention of his master, Liu Xingyun was stable in everything else.
Moreover, Gu Yan also heard a sense of nostalgia from Liu Xingyun’s words.
“Your master must be a very good person.”
“Yes, she is the best person I have ever met,”Liu Xingyun said when he heard the voice. He walked over and raised his head. Looking at the tower in front of him, he seemed to have recalled something from the past, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a relaxed manner.
Now that there was no spiritual power supply, the tower could no longer detect spiritual roots.
But those things from the past, including Liu Xingyun’s own and his disciples’, were forever kept in his memories.
Gu Yan walked around a little worriedly and found that there were only her and Liu Xingyun here at the moment.
Could it be that the others had not passed through the illusory array?
Everyone had scars that they did not want to touch. Because they did not want to touch, it was possible that when they were restored, they would lose their cool and lose their minds.
At this moment, Liu Xingyun slowly opened his mouth, “If you are unable to defeat your own people, then when you cultivate in the future, you will also have inner demons. Xiao Yan, the reason why you were able to pass must be because of your obsession with Lu Ye.”
Because she had to save Lu Ye at all costs, she was able to see through the truth of the illusory formation so quickly and break the demonic barrier in her heart.
This was not the first time Gu Yan had heard Liu Xingyun talk about cultivating.
She raised her head and looked at Liu Xingyun. “Boss Liu, did I also cultivate in the past?”
“Yes.”Liu Xingyun nodded. “That is a heaven-defying path. In fact, cultivating in the world you are in now might be even more difficult.”
“I don’t want to cultivate immortality. I just want to stay with the people I care about until I’m old.”Gu Yan turned his head and looked at the towering immortal gate with a burning gaze. “Isn’t it said that one should only envy the lovebirds and not the Immortals?”
Being able to be together with the person he loved deeply was more important than anything else.
Liu Xingyun looked at the determination in Gu Yan’s eyes. He was a little confused, but he seemed to understand Gu Yan’s thoughts instantly.
Only envious of the lovebirds, not the immortals?
At this moment, a figure suddenly staggered out of the thick fog.
She took two steps, bent her legs, and fell to the ground.
Gu Yan immediately ran over and held her. “Sister-in-law, are you okay?”
