Peerless Taoist

Li Ji commented on Lu Yu, which was a rare occurrence. A hint of appreciation flashed across his eyes as he looked at Lu Yu.    

When they heard Li Ji's words, the faces of the few people who were laughing at Lu Yu instantly turned ashen.    

The Son of Heaven of Great Tang would not easily judge others.    

Once he spoke, it would be the law of gold and jade. There would be no mistake.    

But even if they wracked their brains, they would never be able to figure out how Lu Yu had done it.    

"This kid's cultivation level obtained is too strange. He was clearly only in the Transcendence Realm a year ago. How could he suddenly break through so quickly?" The jealousy in Lu Wuya's heart gradually turned into fear.    

When a person realized that his opponent was much stronger than him, he lost his jealousy and turned into fear.    

The current Lu Yu could easily kill Lu Wuya.    

In the ancient palace.    

This was the inner part of the volcano, but it wasn't pitch black. It was a completely different world.    

Surrounding it was a tall and steep cliff. The mountain walls were steep, and a straight and wide staircase led straight into the depths of the mountain.    

"We can't fly up!"    

Very quickly, everyone noticed that the air around them was abnormal.    

It was as if there was an invisible pressure weighing down on them, making it so that they could only stand on the ground and not use their magical items to ride the clouds.    

Some cultivators were planning to use the Spiritual Sense to look at the end of the flight of stairs.    

However, as soon as this man used the Spiritual Sense, he immediately suffered a backlash. He suddenly howled in pain, covering his eyes with his hands. Two streams of blood flowed out from his fingers.    

The other cultivators were startled.    

They couldn't even look at him.    

This place was indeed full of strange things.    

There were still bloodstains on the ground around him. The person who just barged in did not even leave behind a corpse. As time passed, he turned into ashes.    

There was only this step in front of them, but no one dared to take the first step.    

"Little Feather, don't act rashly. Let them go up and scout first." The black dog carefully transmitted sound.    

This big black dog was usually unreliable, but now, it was surprisingly cautious.    

Lu Yu even saw that its tail, which had been hanging low all this while, suddenly stood up. It was very nervous.    

"Let me do it first."    

The Great Witch suddenly reached out his hand and pressed on the head of a Magus from the Ancient Mountain Region beside him.    

Crack!    

The Magus' eyes suddenly became dull, like a controlled marionette, stepping on the stairs.    

"Let him lead the way, we'll follow behind." The Senior Magus smiled and said.    

This was basically using that Magus as a puppet.    

However, looking at the few people around the Senior Magus Zhu, all of them showed expressions of pain, without saying a word. Obviously, they were all under the control of the Senior Magus Zhu.    

That Magus walked forward step by step, without any danger, unimpeded.    

In just a few breaths' time, the Great Witch had already surpassed the others by more than twenty steps.    

Blackie muttered, "Perhaps it's because too much time has passed, even the trial steps have lost their effectiveness?"    

Deep in its heart, it lowered its paw on the steps and silently felt for a moment. Suddenly, a human-like cautious look flashed across its eyes.    

Clang!    

At this moment, the doors of the ancient palace behind everyone closed.    

As the door closed, it gradually disappeared, revealing a pitch-black forest.    

This forest was lush and lush, and one couldn't see what was behind it. With their previous experience, naturally no one would use the Spiritual Sense to investigate.    

However, just as the ancient palace's door disappeared.    

A cloud of mist suddenly floated up from the forest.
