Divine God Against The Heavens

The purple flame kept burning Ye Xiao's flesh and blood. Gradually, Ye Xiao's flesh was burnt black, but when he reached out his hand to touch it, he wiped off the charred skin, revealing flesh and blood that contained greater power.

"The first platform's purple flames are tempering my body into the divine body. Only through this tempering can my body undergo a complete transformation, allowing my body to advance and become the Divine Body."

With the transformation of his flesh and blood, Ye Xiao was able to walk forward step by step.

Now, Ye Xiao finally understood that the Golden Bridge was not something on which one could move as one wished. A mere thousand meters was a distance that could be crossed in the blink of an eye by an Immortal Foundation Realm expert. However, the distance of a kilometer on the Golden Bridge was not that easy to cross. The Golden Bridge was there to transform one's body into a Divine Body through the tempering of Purple Flame.

Only by having more flesh and blood tempered by the purple flames would one be able to take a step forward.

Normally, only a Dao Body Stage Realm cultivator could temper their body, evolving it into the Divine Body.

But here, Ye Xiao's body was actually evolving into Divine Body without needing to break through to the Dao Body Stage of the Dao Manifestation Realm.

This was something that Ye Xiao could not understand. If it was really like this, doesn't that mean he could escape all two stages of the Dao Manifestation Realm and directly advance to the third stage, the Dao Tribulation Stage of the Dao Manifestation Realm?

What exactly was happening here?

And... What exactly were these mysterious platforms that had suddenly descended from the sky?

Since the Dao Body Stage was the foundation of a Dao Manifestation Realm martial artist and right now, Ye Xiao's body was in the process of evolving to the Divine Body, his body had to endure the tempering of the purple flames.

It wasn't difficult though, he just needed to endure the pain. For martial artists whose foundations were weaker, sometimes failure wasn't because they could not endure the pain, but because their bodies were too weak, causing their flesh and blood to not be further tempered by the purple flames and directly burned to ashes by the purple flames.

In just a few days, Ye Xiao's flesh and blood had almost been completely tempered. His flesh and blood contained the power of a Divine Being now. At this time, Ye Xiao had already walked a third of the distance on the Golden Bridge.

After a third of the process, the purple flame no longer focused on Ye Xiao's flesh, but on his meridians.

When his meridians were being tempered by the purple flame, the pain seemed to be even more painful than when his flesh and blood were being tempered. Ye Xiao's face twisted and cold sweat continuously oozed out before evaporating.

This time, Ye Xiao walked a little slower. Even though he now had the foundation of a Dao Manifestation Realm martial artist, he didn't dare to speed up the process. Every time he finished tempering his meridians, he would have to get used to it for a period of time before he continued to walk forward. He wasn't impatient to take a step forward once he finished tempering his meridians.

In the second stage of meridian tempering, Ye Xiao had walked for almost another month before completing the tempering of his meridians. Compared to before, his meridians were tougher and softer, and they could withstand even more high-quality strength.

His meridians also contained the power of a Divine Being.

Ye Xiao had walked two-thirds of the first Golden Bridge and the last third had been used to temper the bones in his entire body.

He didn't dare to be careless with this step. The pain that went deep into his bones almost caused him to faint.

In the third stage of tempering bones, Ye Xiao had walked for more than three months. When he finally passed the first Golden Bridge, he wished he could just lie down and sleep for a few days and nights to recover his energy.

After passing the first Golden Bridge, Ye Xiao's body had been thoroughly tempered. The power of a Divine Being pervaded the air and Ye Xiao's body had completely advanced from an Immortal Body to the Divine Body.

"The foundation to the Divine has been laid. All I need to do now is to cultivate well and breakthrough to the Dao Manifestation Realm. At that time, I would no longer have to cultivate the Dao Body Stage and Dao Soul Stage of the Dao Manifestation Realm, I'll directly advance to the Dao Tribulation Realm and ascend to the Divine Realm and become a Divine Being."

"Next, I'll walk on the second Golden Bridge!"

After stepping onto the second Platform, Ye Xiao received the baptism of heaven and earth. His Divine Body began to stir and the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique began to circulate rapidly.

But... Ye Xiao felt like suffering a loss here. He had yet to cultivate the Sixth Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique. When the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique started circulating rapidly on its own, Ye Xiao had a feeling if he had cultivated the Sixth Layer of this technique, the cultivation of Sixth Layer would have increased by leaps of bounds.

Ye Xiao could not help but regret not cultivating the Sixth Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.

But not, he could not do anything. He could not cultivate the Sixth Layer as long as his true cultivation base does not surface again. And it might only happen when after he left the Well Of Hell.

.....

_Six Months Ago_

_Outside the Well Of Hell_

All the leaders and elders of the Sacred Lands were present, waiting for everyone's return. They knew that the disciples who'll return will definitely have bad feelings towards the Sacred Lands, but they didn't care.

Why would they care about the feelings of a few hundred disciples?

They were the Sacred Lands, the leader of the Great Martial World. They do not need to worry about anything. Even if the people who have entered the Well Of Hell have a bad impression of their Sacred Lands, and might have given birth to hatred towards their Sacred Lands, so what? What could they do to their Sacred Lands?

Nothing!

They do not have the strength to do anything to their Sacred Lands!

Two months of time were nothing for these sacred lands' leaders. They were waiting. There were still a few days left before the period of two months will end.

But on this day, a golden ripple appeared in the space at the entrance of the Well of Hell and suddenly, a whirlpool was formed before a group of people were thrown out.

"What just happened?"

The Leaders of Sacred Lands were shocked when they saw this. They immediately appeared in front of the group of people who were thrown out and asked.

This group of people was the people being led by Lin Hao. While Lin Hao and Ye Xiao went to ascend the platform, they were sucked into the Golden Gate and were thrown out.

These people looked at the people from Sacred Lands with anger in their eyes but they could not do anything since their opponents were Sacred Lands.

But they themselves were the disciples of the Sacred Lands, so they knew they had to answer truthfully every question of the Leaders of Sacred Lands. Otherwise, they might lose their lives.

After all, their lives were insignificant like ants in front of mammoths like the Leaders of Sacred Lands.

One of the people opened his mouth and told the people of Sacred Lands how they were thrown out from the Well Of Hell.

Hearing the words of that person, the leaders, as well as the elders of Sacred Lands, widen their brows in shock. They looked at each other and nodded their heads.

"Looks like, the time has come!"

The Leader of the Great Martial Sacred Land looked at the Golden Ripple in the space that was disappearing and said.

The Leader of Double Sword Sacred Land also nodded his head and said, "According to the legend, when a person breaks through to the Immortal Realm from the Mortal Realm and reach the depth of the Well Of Hell, the Divine Treasure will make its appearance. To get hold of this Divine Treasure, they have to pass a test."

"According to these disciples, Lin Hao had broken through to the Early Stage of Immortal Foundation Realm. And that second person must also have broken through to Immortal Realm. Only because of this was he able to move forward and was not thrown out like others!"

The Leader of the Double Sword Sacred Land stopped for a moment and then again said, "Lin Hao is the representative of my Double Sword Sacred land, we just need to know who that second person is!"
