Chapter 3773: Foot of the Mountain

Starting from the first step, Jian Wushuang walked up step by step.

His pace was not fast, and he did not encounter any resistance on the steps. He easily walked over 100 steps.

However, Heaven-Treading Mountain was too tall. There were at least 10,000 steps leading to the peak. After Jian Wushuang walked over 100 steps, he was still at the foot of Heaven-Treading Mountain. At this time…Jian Wushuang saw a pavilion beside the steps.

In the pavilion, a black-clothed man was sitting with his back facing Jian Wushuang.

This black-clothed man looked very ordinary, and he did not emit any aura. Even when Jian Wushuang looked up at him, he did not sense any divine power fluctuation from this black-clothed man.

However, it was because he could not sense it that Jian Wushuang became vigilant.

At this moment, the black-clothed man seemed to have sensed Jian Wushuang’s arrival. He turned his body sideways and looked at Jian Wushuang with a pair of pitch-black eyes.

It was just a simple glance.

However, the moment the black-clothed man looked at Jian Wushuang, Jian Wushuang felt a sudden fear in his heart, as if he had been completely seen through by the other party.

His ordinary eyes seemed to have a special magic power, which immediately calmed Jian Wushuang down.

“Little guy, you must be tired after walking for so long. I have a bowl of coarse tea here, how about coming over for a cup?” A calm voice came out of the black-clothed man’s mouth.

...

Jian Wushuang saw that there were indeed two bowls of tea on the stone table where the black-clothed man was sitting. He nodded slightly and walked over.

“I brewed this tea with my own hands. Try it.” The black-clothed man made an inviting gesture.

Jian Wushuang did not hesitate. He picked up the bowl of tea in front of him and drank it in one gulp.

When the tea entered his throat, it immediately gave him an extremely bitter taste. Jian Wushuang could not help but click his tongue at this bitter taste.

However, after the tea entered his stomach, it felt warm and comfortable.

“How do you feel?” The black-clothed man asked with a smile.

“Very good, but it’s a little bitter,” Jian Wushuang said.

“Haha, only through suffering can one rise to the top. Little guy, since you’ve already eaten my tea, it means that you and I are fated. For the sake of our fated fate, I advise you to go back to where you came from. It’s not easy to enter the Heaven-Treading Mountain,” the black-clothed man said.

“I haven’t really started. How would you know that I can’t pass it?” Jian Wushuang asked with interest.

“Haha, the Red Cloud World has existed in your Star Field for so many years. Over the years, how many people have come to Heaven-Treading Mountain to pass it? Not to mention a Principles Master like you, even a Ruler…there are probably more than a hundred people who have come and gone. However, only a few of these Rulers were able to pass my level. Even if these Rulers were lucky enough to pass my guarding level, they will still be easily defeated when they reach the mountainside.”

“Even the masters who have reached the top of the first level, or at least the second level, will be easily defeated by the one on the mountainside. You are just a Principles Master, so why bother?” The black-clothed man said.

Hearing the black-clothed man’s words, Jian Wushuang’s pupils shrank.

He did not doubt the truth of the black-clothed man’s words.

The Red Cloud World had been in this Star Field for a very long time. During this period, this Star Field had produced many Rulers. At the same time, many Rulers had already left this Star Field to explore more vast Star Fields, it was normal that more than a hundred Rulers had come to Heaven-Treading Mountain to pass this test.

There must be some Superior Rulers among the hundreds of Rulers. However, according to the black-clothed man, ordinary Superior Rulers would not be able to pass this test, even if they were lucky enough to pass, when they reached the mountainside, they would be easily defeated by the gatekeeper guarding the mountainside, which surprised Jian Wushuang.

After all, the black-clothed man had just talked about a second-level Ruler. How could a second-level Ruler be defeated by the gatekeeper?

“After all, a Ruler is a Ruler. Compared to a Principles Master, the requirements are naturally higher. I’m just a Principles Master. I don’t need a Superior Ruler’s battle strength to pass you, right?” Jian Wushuang asked.

“Of course not, but it’s not easy to pass me. Do you want to give it a try?” The black-clothed man looked at Jian Wushuang with a faint smile.

“Of course, I didn’t come to Heaven-Treading Mountain just for a walk,” Jian Wushuang said with a smile.

“Okay.” The black-clothed man stood up and said, “Then let’s begin.”

“Here?” Jian Wushuang frowned.

They were still at the foot of the Heaven-Treading Mountain, and there was no spacious place for them to fight.

“Don’t worry, it’s not here.” The black-clothed man smiled. “The tea you just ate is special. It can bring your consciousness into a special space. I also drank a cup, so our consciousness will fight in that special space. In that special space, you can display your strength without any restrictions, even the power of the Supreme Treasure.”

“Oh?” Jian Wushuang’s eyes lit up.

He did not expect that the cup of tea he had just eaten would have such an effect.

“Wait a moment, the tea is about to take effect,” the black-clothed man said.

Sure enough, Jian Wushuang felt that his body was light and his consciousness was being pulled by a special power. Soon, he came to a special space.

This was the sky above a vast sea, which spanned hundreds of millions of miles. Not to mention Jian Wushuang, even several masters of the second or third level could fight wantonly here.

Not long after Jian Wushuang’s figure condensed in the sky above the sea, the black-clothed man appeared.

“Little guy, let’s fight.” The black-clothed man smiled faintly. He casually flipped his hand and took out a pitch-black long spear.

Although the pitch-black spear exuded an ancient aura, its power was very ordinary. Obviously, it was not a great Supreme Treasure.

Jian Wushuang did not waste any time and immediately unsheathed the Netherworld Divine Sword.

Clang!

A surge of astonishing sword essence instantly swept out.

With the Netherworld Divine Sword in hand, Jian Wushuang immediately sensed the power of the Netherworld Divine Sword.

“Sure enough, even in the space of consciousness, the power of the Netherworld Sword is the same as in reality.” Jian Wushuang revealed a smile. Then, he moved and attacked.

Whoosh!

A cold sword light slashed out from a distance.

The sword light slashed through the void, but it created a huge crack in the sea below.

“Oh? Overlord-level battle prowess?” The black-robed man revealed a surprised expression.
