Unparalleled War Emperor

Iron Sword Mountain is located in the westernmost part of Xuanyu. The whole mountain towers into the clouds. From a distance, it looks like a huge iron sword stuck in the ground. It is very majestic and the sect is named after it.

The sect of Iron Sword Mountain is built on the top of the mountain, surrounded by cliffs. A man-made stone ladder rises from the ground and spirals up around the fan.

It is said that the standards for accepting disciples in Iron Sword Mountain are very strict. They do not have high requirements for spiritual bodies, but they value willpower.

Therefore, the seniors of Iron Sword Mountain set up a very powerful formation on the stone staircase.

When the sect is opened to accept disciples, this formation will be activated. On this stone staircase, everyone's cultivation is imprisoned, and the higher you go to the top of the mountain, the greater the pressure.

Only those who can climb to the top of the mountain on foot can be qualified to join Iron Sword Mountain.

It can be said that this is the most difficult assessment method in the entire Xuan Realm.

This time, Yun Yi and Nie Bufan were taken to the foot of Iron Sword Mountain by Nie Changfeng instead of directly entering the sect of Iron Sword Mountain.

There are only 100 places for the competition between the two realms in the Xuan realm, but there are not only ten major sects in the Xuan realm, but also countless small sects and casual cultivators.

Therefore, before each competition, the ten major sects will allocate thirty places to small sects and casual cultivators.

Not only do they want this, but the spiritual realm also does this.

Although these small sects and casual cultivators do not play a big role in the competition between the two domains, this method can maintain the stable development of the entire Mysterious Domain.

Only the top leaders of the various sects knew about this matter, and the rest did not.

Therefore, before the competition begins, the ten major forces still need to conduct a second or even third screening.

The people who were just trying to make up the numbers were eliminated, leaving only seventy disciples.

It can be said that this itself is also part of the great competition between the two domains.

This also has great benefits, as it can ensure that the disciples who pass the test are all true elites.

It is related to the face of the entire Xuanyu, and any force has to pay attention to it.

"Father, the second screening won't be this long spiral staircase, right?"

Nie Bufan's face looked a little ugly. He had experienced the competition between the two domains before. Although he did not participate, he had also followed Nie Changfeng.

Therefore, he knows the entire process of the two-domain competition.

However, he never expected that the location for this second screening would be the Ten Thousand Zhang Spiral Staircase in Iron Sword Mountain.

You know, this place is very famous in Xuanyu. It is not only effective for low-level disciples, but also effective for masters like them, the Spirit Emperor.

People with weak willpower simply cannot climb up.

Some people may say that none of the leaders of the various sects are strong-willed. For them, this ten thousand-foot spiral staircase is not a problem at all.

But if you really think so, you are wrong. This formation will increase in difficulty based on your strength. Theoretically speaking, the higher your cultivation level, the greater the pressure you will experience.

If he remembered correctly, he chose this place during the third screening of the last competition between the two domains.

Now, it's just the second screening and I chose this place. Isn't it a bit too much?

"Yes, this competition between the two domains is different from the past. Whether it is the specifications, rewards, or the method of competition, it is also different from the past. Therefore, the selection process has also greatly increased the difficulty. You kid, listen to me, don't I’ll give up halfway up. If that’s the case, give up as soon as possible so as not to embarrass me.”

Nie Changfeng said that it was not that he really had no confidence in Nie Bufan, but he said this deliberately to encourage him.

Because this boy had been with him since he was a child and had never experienced any big storms, he was worried that Nie Bufan would not be able to hold on and give up.

"Father, am I your biological son? Why do you have so little confidence in me?"

Nie Bufan's face darkened. It's too much. How can you be such a father? It's okay if you don't give me some comfort and you give me all kinds of blows.

If he didn't look very similar to Nie Changfeng, he would have begun to doubt whether he was his biological child.

"Don't talk nonsense. Anyway, if you embarrass me, I'll take your skin off."

Nie Changfeng glanced at him and continued: "There are some of you out there. If you want to give up, do it now to avoid embarrassing the sect later."

"Elder Nie, we will not give up."

The group of people said firmly, in fact, they had no idea in their hearts. They also knew the ten thousand-foot spiral staircase of Iron Sword Mountain quite well. Most people really couldn't climb it when it was opened at full strength.

However, it was not easy for them to get the quota for the competition in these two areas. The second screening had not been carried out yet. If they gave up directly, how could they meet people when they returned to the sect.

Even if they knew that there was a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire ahead of them, they still had to go for it.

"Then what are you waiting for? Go quickly. Others have already started climbing. Don't let them get left behind."

Nie Changfeng nodded with satisfaction. In fact, as he said this, he knew in his heart that not even half of these ten people would be able to stay in the end.

In fact, the sect does not have high requirements for them. It is enough for three people to pass the screening and participate in the two-domain competition.

Because the current situation of Tianyun Pavilion is different from the past, the overall strength of the disciples is much worse than that of other sects.

This is a fact. Even if Nie Changfeng doesn't want to admit it, he has to face the reality.

"yes!"

With that said, the group stepped directly onto the spiral staircase of Iron Sword Mountain.

The moment they stepped onto the stone staircase, everyone felt that their cultivation was completely imprisoned, and at the same time, an extremely powerful force pressed down on them.

Everyone felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them, putting them under tremendous pressure.

"Don't be so exaggerated, this is just the beginning."

Nie Bufan's face was very ugly. The pressure was so great at the beginning. If he climbed halfway up the mountain, what level would it reach?

"Talk less and reduce physical exertion."

Yun Yi glanced at Nie Bufan and reminded that now that his cultivation was imprisoned, he could only rely on his own body to resist the pressure.

This is just the beginning. If you spend a lot of energy, it will be difficult to reach the top.

Nie Bufan also knew that now was not the time to complain. This was just the beginning. If he was scared now, how could he reach the top?

So he nodded to Yun Yi and walked up step by step.

This pressure is really not small, but for Yun Yi, it is not very strong. He has an innate Tao body and a strong physical body as a foundation, so it does not have much impact on him at all, so he can walk easily .

The performance of the other people was also good. Although the walk was difficult, it was also smooth.

But when they reached one-third of the way up the spiral staircase, the pressure suddenly increased several times, catching them off guard.

One person couldn't bear it anymore and was forced to kneel on the stone stairs.

This force was like a big hand, holding his body firmly, making it impossible for him to get up no matter how hard he tried.
