Chapter 371: Divine Soul Mechanism
Chapter 371: Divine Soul Mechanism
Not many people had the opportunity to step on the patriarch's stairs, and anyone who could step on them would take full advantage of them because they usually worked very well to improve the human body.
Therefore, many of those present were a bit jealous of the opportunity Tang Yin, a measly Spirit King, had.
Still, there was nothing they could do. This was decided by Elder Ding. No one else could speak.
When Tang Yin felt the pressure of the first step, he frowned slightly.
It was quite a powerful pressure that made him stand still for a moment as he put both feet on the ground.
It was not a pressure made for a Spirit King to bear. He was sure that not even a Spirit Emperor could climb many steps.
The pressure they felt was not commensurate with the level of the cultivator but was a pressure so powerful that, if a Spiritual Supreme was not careful, he could be thrown out of it.
'This mental and physical pressure is quite interesting. The mechanism is that, if I don't keep a clear mind, this thing will explode and send me forcefully backward, huh.' Tang Yin thought, unraveling a bit of the secret of the spiritual pressure that girded over his head.
It was not a spiritual pressure that you could easily shake off. The spiritual pressure prevented you from getting out, and the only way to do so was to push you to your limit and have it forcefully expel you. So, once you're in, you can't get out.
This made Tang Yin smile.
Still, he soon noticed something important and what he wanted to use this spiritual pressure for.
Although the pressure was quite strong and should serve to cultivate his body, he soon noticed that his divine soul was activated and began to expel all this spiritual pressure that was trying to cling to his body.
In an instant, all the pressure disappeared from Tang Yin, and he could feel as if he was standing in any normal place.
This surprised him, but after a moment, he sighed with understanding and laughed at his stupidity.
'Shit, I had forgotten that divine soul mechanism. Tsk, now I won't be able to strengthen my body using this.' Tang Yin thought and was slightly annoyed by it, though then he simply sighed and looked forward.
He had spent several seconds thinking, so as soon as he looked up, he noticed that the two supreme spirituals had already advanced a good batch, but...
Mu Taishi was already sweating by this point in the encounter as he tried to get through it as quickly as possible, and the pressure he was feeling was terrifying.
From the outside, it could be seen that immense spiritual pressure was upon Mu Taishi.
The ancestors were angry.
How could a patriarch have to re-enter the patriarch's mechanism?
He had to have done it very badly, such that all the Central Elders were angry!
Therefore, they were going to teach him a lesson!
Tang Yin scoffed at such a stupid mechanism.
They did not even leave any mechanism behind so that they could understand the context of everything but automatically thought that Mu Taishi was not worthy and that, if he wanted to be worthy, then he should pass the test of several times the difficulty.
Still, it was not his duty to interfere in this. Therefore, he walked a little further up this huge staircase and stepped on the second step.
The pressure increased with each one, so, stepping on the third step, Tang Yin stopped.
He didn't need to go any higher, and although the pressure disappeared soon after, he felt too lazy to climb so many steps unnecessarily.
Therefore, once he got there, he stood still and looked up.
Many of the people below were shocked by his feat, among those, the Central Elders who had participated in the Patriarch's Mechanism earlier were stunned to see that a person from the King Realm was able to reach the third step and didn't even break a sweat.
'How is this possible? This guy what kind of genius is he?' many of them thought.
Ding Chun himself was stunned when he saw this.
He had never participated, but the Elders once showed him a small part of what it would be like so he could go prepare, even so, despite it not being the real thing, he couldn't endure it for long.
So, how is it possible for Tang Yin to have endured so long?
Everyone was amazed by such a feat, including Jia Yijie, who opened her eyes in surprise.
She as an illusionist, can see spiritual pressure even better than anyone else, and thanks to that, she can see that the spiritual pressure in Tang Yin's body is not working the way it should.
'Is he that good?' She thought in shock and focused her gaze to stare at him.
She never took her gaze away from Tang Yin's body as she tried to understand what was going on with this strange and mysterious person, but who seemed to be much weaker than her.
Tang Yin had noticed her gaze but paid it no mind.
He knew very well that this woman could see some things that other people could not, so it was best to keep his sight away from her.
Besides, she's an opportunist, the likes of which he doesn't like.
He was trying to unravel more of the mysteries of this spiritual energy but was hampered by his divine soul, which would not let him feel the pressure.
Still...
When he spent some time looking at the two spiritual Supremes that were rising, he could understand a few things.
'It's a spiritual pressure that causes hallucinations and it's not because it affects the mind too much, they are created as illusions...' Tang Yin thought with surprise.
That means that those two Mu Taishi and Elder Ding, were battling in their minds against various illusions while they had to keep climbing.
'It's not dangerous on a physical or cultivation level, but... Certainly, it's a real challenge to complete this walk on stairs.' Tang Yin thought.
That was why Mu Taishi was still sweating constantly. The pressure and mental attacks he was enduring were much stronger than the attacks on Elder Ding.
Even so, both of them continued to climb slowly.
Tang Yin frowned a while later...
'The sect master is slowing down considerably. Elder Ding will go up first at this rate.' He thought.
