Su Luo followed the path indicated by the Divine Eye Mirror, leaping forward at a steady pace.
The clouds drifted past her, cool and refreshing, the dense spiritual energy filling the surroundings. If one could cultivate here, the results would be doubled with half the effort. But she knew there were greater secrets within this ancient ruin, and using it for cultivation would be a waste of heavenly resources.
The thirty-seventh step…
The thirty-eighth step…
The forty-second step…
Su Luo leaped further and further, the entire space in utter silence, with no sign of lightning strikes. Everyone was shocked. Chu Tianshu and the others, following behind her, felt their hearts settle. Little Junior Sister indeed knew the correct path.
Huh? Why is it a bit strange?
Su Luo suddenly felt the spiritual energy filling the air, constantly converging and drilling into her body. This feeling was very comfortable, cool and pleasant, prompting the spiritual energy within her to also circulate, revitalizing her spirit.
But she didn't show anything, continuing forward, observing the correct path.
Before long, the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch, the Nether Dream Demon Envoy, and others by the cliff edge could barely see Su Luo's figure. Their hearts stirred with excitement.
Since discovering this ruin, this was the furthest anyone had leaped.
There was hope!
"Let's go, we're departing too!" The Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch couldn't resist, deciding to follow personally, leading his people onto the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge. The Nether Dream Demon Envoy hesitated for a moment before striding forward, landing easily on a white stone.
Finally, all the demonic sect members set off, stepping onto the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge.
Su Luo remained at the forefront of the group.
She stood on a white stone, her gaze level with the front, her expression seemingly impassive, but in reality, she was checking the path provided by the Divine Eye Mirror. At the same time, she continuously circulated her spiritual power, integrating the spiritual energy that entered her body into her dantian, and began to cultivate.
Having seen the next step clearly, Su Luo leaped out again.
The fifty-eighth step…
The sixtieth step…
She was already a hundred zhang away from the starting point. Su Luo didn't know how far the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge actually was, only that she leaped forward step by step. At this moment, more spiritual energy surged into her body, and the spiritual power within her dantian rotated vigorously. The bottleneck, which had been stable for a long time, began to loosen.
Signs of a breakthrough!
It seemed this was the secret of the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge.
The further she walked, the greater the reward, and one had to be the first to cross the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge!
Su Luo rejoiced inwardly, but her expression remained calm, constantly seeking the correct path forward. Suddenly, she heard the rustling of robes from behind, someone was approaching.
Shang Xie Shaoqing and the others saw the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch, leading his demonic beast, the Blazing Thunderous Light Lion, catching up. But he didn't even look at them, his gaze fixed on Su Luo, landing on the foremost white stone where she stood.
Their hearts sank, and they simultaneously transmitted to Su Luo: "Be careful!"
The Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch had arrived!
Su Luo remained still, standing on the white stone as if she hadn't seen the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch, and leaped to the eighty-first white stone.
The Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch's eyes narrowed, warily watching for any potential lightning strikes, but after waiting for a moment, the surroundings were quiet, with no signs of danger.
"Indeed, she has some skill!" His eyes were complex as he stared intently at Su Luo's back.
The Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch unhesitatingly chased after her, landing on the same white stone as Su Luo. The others then stepped forward, landing on the stone he had just stepped over.
Lu Jixing and the others silently resolved that if the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch dared to attack Su Luo, they would protect their Little Junior Sister, even if it meant exposing their identities.
The Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch walked to Su Luo's side, observing her at close range.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, sounds of landing came from behind. The Nether Dream Demon Envoy also crossed over, stepping on each white stone, landing beside the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch.
"If this woman, is there a problem?" he asked gloomily.
"Looking at her vacant eyes, it truly resembles the reaction of someone who has consumed the Black Insect Pill, but why can she find the correct path and completely avoid drawing heavenly lightning? It's truly inconceivable." This was the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch's doubt.
While he very much hoped Su Luo would find the correct path, he was not foolish. There must be a reason for this.
The Nether Dream Demon Envoy walked in front of Su Luo and said chillingly, "What is your name, and whose disciple are you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Luo had already leaped out, landing on a white stone in front.
She completely ignored him!
From the reactions of the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch, the Nether Dream Demon Envoy, and the others, she knew they definitely hadn't sensed the special influx of spiritual energy, and only she alone had experienced the benefits of the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge.
The arrangements of the Primordial Great Emperor were indeed miraculous.
"How dare you not answer me? Hmph!" The Nether Dream Demon Envoy flickered, appearing like a phantom beside Su Luo, his voice filled with killing intent, "I asked what your name is and whose disciple you are, didn't you hear me? You want to die!"
The small snakes on his head writhed continuously, appearing terrifying and grotesque. Several were about to pounce onto Su Luo's face.
Damn it, looking like a ghost, and you dare come out to scare people!
Shang Xie Shaoqing and the others gritted their teeth in anger, fearing that the Nether Dream Demon Envoy would sneak attack Su Luo, but they dared not act rashly first, only able to remain vigilant and ready to strike at any moment.
Seeing the Nether Dream Demon Envoy's hand already reaching out, about to flash like lightning and grab Su Luo's shoulder, the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch beside him stopped him, "Enough, a test is sufficient. Look at her, she seems to not understand your words, there should be no problem."
The Nether Dream Demon Envoy was merely testing. He then withdrew his hand, "I was just testing. It seems she has indeed become a puppet. But it is truly strange that she can walk so far without triggering the lightning."
Su Luo leaped out again and landed on a white stone. The lightning seemed to have frozen, still not striking.
Everyone's hearts were about to jump out of their chests. Could this woman have incredibly good luck?
Otherwise, how could she find the correct path just by randomly leaping?
No one could guess the reason, but everyone hoped Su Luo's luck would continue, allowing them to avoid a dead end.
With each correct step Su Luo took, the demonic followers behind her cheered, while she clearly felt a rumble within her body. The loosened bottleneck was finally broken through by the abundant and surging spiritual energy, advancing her to the fourth-tier Venerable cultivation.
She actually broke through here!
Su Luo closed her eyes for a moment, not expecting to gain such benefits.
Fierce and relieved laughter erupted beside her. The group of demonic followers had no idea Su Luo had already broken through; they only hoped she could lead them out of the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge and escape death, even if she was just a puppet who had lost her senses.
Finally… a full two hours passed.
The other shore appeared in sight, and Su Luo broke through once again, reaching the fifth-tier Venerable. She was only ten zhang away from reaching it.
The Nether Dream Demon Envoy and the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch became excited. They were about to cross the Shore-Crossing Divine Bridge!
Everyone stared intently at Su Luo.
It had reached the final moment, and no one wanted to fail at the last hurdle.
Su Luo walked to the edge of the white stones, looking at the last eight white stones before her. The people behind her all held their breath, not daring to disturb her. Even the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly Monarch, the Nether Dream Demon Envoy, and Sima Kun, at this moment, no longer treated her as a mere puppet!
She was their lucky star, their revered elder sister!
Sima Kun never imagined that his luck would be so good.
He had casually organized a competition and obtained a puppet with incredibly good luck. Once this ancient ruin exploration was successful, his merit would certainly not be overlooked!
"Revered Elder Sister, please, you must choose correctly…" Sima Kun prayed inwardly.
Su Luo finally leaped out, landing lightly on each white stone, successfully reaching the other side of the cliff.
No lightning fell. The void was a misty expanse, quiet and serene.
