2282 Tenth Stone Step!
After the Green Lotus True Body advanced to Grade 11, Su Zimo obtained this horsetail whip Dharmic treasure.
However, there were extrely few lineage mories of this Dharmic treasure. He only knew that it was called the Primordial Unity Horsetail Whip and did not know anything else.
Now that Su Zimo was on the ninth stone step, the strange runes seed to have triggered so sort of seal on the Primordial Unity Horsetail Whip, causing a lineage mory to surge into his mind.
The Yin Yang Talisman Sutra.
In that mory, there was a secret skill sutra that was divided into two sections with slightly more than 600 words.
However, Su Zimo could not understand a single word of the contents of those two sections!
That was because the contents were written by the strange runes he had seen previously.
He did not know what each of the runes ant, let alone what use the Yin Yang Talisman Sutra had or what it had to do with the Primordial Unity Horsetail Whip.
Su Zimo comprehended for a long ti but could not co up with anything.
Although the Yin Yang Talisman Sutra only had slightly more than 600 words, it was like a heavenly book to him!
Su Zimo stood on the Dao Heart Stairs and was surrounded by the wills of nine supre experts. However, the changes in his consciousness was not sothing that could be sensed by outsiders.
Although the entire process sounded short, more than two hours had passed.
Su Zimo stood on the ninth stone step for an entire two hours. However, the Nine Great Elders did not leave and waited at the side, looking extrely patient.
“Elder Eight, if you can’t wait, you can head back first.”
Elder Three smiled. “I reckon that he won’t learn blacksmithing from you even after the trial is over.”
“That’s none of your business!”
Elder Eight had a fiery temper and shouted like a bell, “I’ll wait here. If this lad joins , he’ll definitely have enough divine weapons for everything!”
“By the looks of it, this lad has even passed the Wisdom Step condensed by the Sect Master.”
The Grand Elder nodded slightly and stroked his beard with his large hands, looking increasingly satisfied.
Reaching the peak of the Dao Heart Stairs versus clearing the trial of the ninth stone step… those were two completely different scenarios and outcos!
The fact that Su Zimo was able to ascend the Dao Heart Stairs proved that his Dao Heart was strong. That was enough to have the Nine Great Elders fight to take him in as a disciple.
However, it would be even rarer if he could pass the trial of the ninth stone step of the Dao Heart Stairs!
This ti round, the Nine Great Elders would definitely not give in. All of them were planning in secret as to how they should rope Su Zimo in after the latter’s trial ended.
“Mmm?”
Right then, Elder Four frowned slightly and looked at Old Xuan beside the Dao Heart Stairs, exclaiming softly, “Why isn’t that old man guarding the secret pavilions? Why is he here?”
“I heard that Jade Toad challenged Su Zimo to a battle on the Dao Heart Stairs and was attacked by the killing intent of the third stone step earlier on. Old Xuan was the one who saved him.”
Elder Nine said, “Although his cultivation is destroyed, he survived.”
“Hmph!”
Elder Five sneered, “With the loss of his cultivation, even if he survived, he’s equivalent to a cripple and is no different from ants!”
Elder Two’s expression was dark the entire ti as he said coldly, “Since he’s already saved, what’s that old man still doing here?”
“Could he be thinking of taking in a disciple as well?”
Elder Three teased.
“Fufu.”
Elder Seven chuckled. “What can he teach? Does he want Su Zimo to learn from him on how to guard the secret pavilions or the entrance of the sect?”
“Should we chase him away?”
Elder Eight frowned slightly. “He’s standing so close to the Dao Heart Stairs. It’s an eyesore. He might affect Su Zimo’s trial.”
The Grand Elder said nothing the entire ti as the other elders discussed Old Xuan; he rely had a faint smile on his face.
It was only when the Grand Elder heard the others talk about chasing away Old Xuan that he said slowly, “Forget it, he’s the de facto old man of the academy after all. He’s been in the academy for even longer than the Sect Master. Just give him so face and ignore him.”
Old Xuan was expressionless the entire ti when he heard the discussions of the elders and did not look up.
Dao Heart Stairs.
Su Zimo’s green robes fluttered loudly in the wind.
He opened his eyes slowly and looked ahead with a calm expression.
The Wisdom Step beneath his feet no longer had any effect on him!
Although he passed the Dao Heart Trial of the nine stone steps, he did not leave imdiately.
After the trial of the nine stone steps of the Dao Heart Stairs, the power of the Dao Hearts of his two true bodies was completely triggered and the flas of war were ignited, burning furiously!
Su Zimo’s Dao Hearts contained an unimaginable power that he had nowhere to vent!
He looked at the void before him with a burning gaze. His eyes seed to be burning with two balls of flas and his aura rose continuously!
“It’s truly hard to imagine that soone could pass the trial of the nine stone steps of the Dao Heart Stairs. Furthermore, he’s only a Grade 1 Heaven Immortal.”
“There’s a high chance Su Zimo is the first and last person to do it in the entire Heaven and Earth Academy!”
“That’s right, this is unprecedented and it’ll be difficult for anyone to repeat this in the future.”
After the dust settled, discussions gradually broke out in the crowd.
Many cultivators were filled with emotions. No one had expected that a Grade 1 Heaven Immortal who had ascended from the lower worlds would create an unprecedented record in Heaven and Earth Academy!
At that mont, many cultivators felt ashad when they recalled their initial contempt and mockery of that person.
“Junior Brother Su has already passed the trial of the Dao Heart Stairs. Why is he still standing on it?”
...
Soone asked.
“He probably wants to comprehend more,” Another person said.
“Let’s disperse. There’s nothing much to see.”
“Let’s wait a little more. There’s still no conclusion as to whether Su Zimo can beco a legacy disciple or join any of the Nine Great Elders.”
“I’m not waiting lest I suffer another shock. Just tell the outco when you head back later.”
Many cultivators suffered a huge blow this ti round and were prepared to return and cultivate in seclusion.
Right then, the figure standing on the ninth stone step moved once more.
It was still a familiar and simple action as he took another step into the void before him!
There was nothing there and Su Zimo’s action seed a little strange.
However, that single step caused the mountain range in the academy to tremble, startling countless birds and beasts!
The ground shook and all beasts roared!
...
The cultivators who were about to leave stopped and turned around.
Imdiately after, the eyes of many cultivators widened as they witnessed an incomparably shocking scene that they would never forget in their lives!
Beneath Su Zimo’s feet, a vast will gathered above the ninth stone step. Beams of light circulated and another stone step appeared, becoming clearer and more obvious!
Instantly, the world shook and a phenonon descended!
Countless lotus flowers fell from the skies.
Golden lotus flowers blossod beneath Su Zimo’s feet as well.
Heavenly Flower Fall and Earth Gushing Golden Lotus.
Those were initially two greater divine powers but now, they descended in the form of universal phenonons!
Raging flas began to burn beneath Su Zimo’s feet!
The golden lotuses were being burned by the flas!
Who-ooh-ooh!
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Suddenly, everyone heard a strange sound that seed to be able to touch their minds.
Everyone’s Essence Qi, True Essence and Essence Spirit trembled uncontrollably!
“The Dharmic conch and drum!”
Old Xuan exclaid.
Psst!
The expressions of the Nine Great Elders changed at the sa ti!
Legend has it that only by resonating with the Great Dao would the sounds of the Dharmic conch and drum be born. This was only ntioned in the oldest Immortal Classics and Buddhist sutras!
The Nine Great Elders had cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years but they had never heard such sounds!
The world shook and the Great Dao resonated!
Su Zimo took another step forward and condensed the tenth stone step!
