693: Ask Dan

Bang, bang, bang!

While the puppet was down, Lin Yang, while grumbling about the bizarre location of its weakness, seized the opportunity to press his attack.

He used the Sky Tremor Bell to relentlessly strike the puppet's crotch area, one blow after another, without giving the puppet a chance to counterattack.

These puppets cannot be killed; to win, one must completely suppress them.

Currently, Lin Yang's attacks achieved this suppressive effect.

Then, another five full minutes passed before the trial on this floor declared his victory, successfully passing the trial.

"What a tragic puppet..."

Lin Yang withdrew his hand and muttered to himself.

It had been struck by the Sky Tremor Bell for a full five minutes; thankfully, it was just a puppet, otherwise...

With his victory, Lin Yang began to adjust his breathing, and then he was teleported to the fifty-first floor.

The trial on this floor was still puppets, but this time there were two of them, and he needed to endure their attacks for half an hour with his Dao Power suppressed by half to win.

This clearancce condition made Lin Yang unhesitatingly choose to abandon this trial directly.

Dealing with one puppet was already difficult, let alone two.

Moreover, his own Dao Power would be suppressed by half; currently, there was no possibility of passing.

"I guess I can only pass once I reach the Half-Step Dao Above realm."

Lin Yang didn't feel any regret.

The Half-Step Dao Above is, after all, another level; for him to pass fifty floors in one go was already quite impressive.

Of course, this was also thanks to the system accurately finding the puppet's weakness.

Otherwise, he might have had to enter and exit repeatedly several times to confirm the location of the weakness.

"Trial participant Lin Yang, in this trial, you have passed fifty floors in total, earning a total of fifty thousand Asking Dao Points. As this is your first time participating in the trial and reaching fifty floors, based on your performance, you have received an additional thirty thousand Asking Dao Points. Your total Asking Dao Points are now eighty thousand."

After Lin Yang chose to abandon this trial, he received all the points he had earned from this trial.

"Eighty thousand in total, thirty thousand of which were extra for passing fifty floors. Luckily, the system helped, otherwise the loss would have been huge!"

Lin Yang thought to himself, then directly said, "I want to exchange for Asking Dao-level resources."

Working so hard to earn points was precisely for exchanging treasures.

"Alright, the resources currently available for exchange with your points have been displayed for you."

As the voice spoke, a light screen appeared before Lin Yang's eyes.

On the light screen was a list of materials.

It included magical treasures, medicines, and various other resources.

Lin Yang's gaze immediately fell upon the first item.

"Asking Dao Pill (Mid-Grade): After consumption, deepens one's comprehension of the Dao. The effect varies from person to person, but overall, it at least doubles. Price: eighty thousand."

With just one glance, Lin Yang stopped looking at other items.

This Asking Dao Pill was even applicable to those at the Half-Step Dao Above realm.

If he were to consume it, it would definitely greatly reduce the difficulty and time required to break through to the Half-Step Dao Above.

"This is it." Lin Yang exchanged it directly.

His points were instantly cleared, and an jade bottle appeared in his hand.

Lin Yang opened the jade bottle and took a look; inside was a vibrant green pill, its fragrance overflowing.

Just a sniff instantly made him feel refreshed.

Lin Yang quickly covered the bottle and put it away.

Immediately, he exited the Asking Dao Pavilion and returned to his residence in the city.

"I wonder if this Asking Dao Pill can help me break through in one go."

Back at his residence, Lin Yang took out the Asking Dao Pill again.

Over the years, he had gained many insights from his trials in the Asking Dao Pavilion, feeling that he was already one step closer to breaking through.

This Asking Dao Pill had a high probability of allowing him to break through successfully.

With that thought in mind, Lin Yang adjusted his breathing for a while, then consumed the pill.

Following that, he entered a state of secluded cultivation.

Cultivating in the city was incredibly safe.

Unless the Ancient War City fell, it was safer than anywhere else.

And the chance of the city falling was infinitely close to zero.

This place was not like Tai Shi City in the Tai Shi Battlefield, which could be invaded by Foreign races.

On one hand, it was because most of the Foreign races were in the Battlefield Ancient Domain, which was another region.

On the other hand, it was because almost all the cultivators here were at the Half-Step Dao Above realm, making it difficult for Foreign races to launch a large-scale invasion.

Lin Yang cultivated in peace.

At the same time.

In a certain area of the Ancient Battlefield, a Half-Step Dao Above existence slowly emerged from his cultivation chamber.

"Finally, I have taken the last small step in the Half-Step Dao Above, reaching the point where I can be crowned king!"

The man's expression was stern; with a wave of his hand, a jade slip appeared.

A moment later, a chilling glint flashed in his eyes: "Lin Yang? A mere little thing not even at the Half-Step Dao Above, yet he forced my Chu Country into such a humiliating position?"

Yes, that's right.

This person was none other than Chu Jin, the current ruler of Chu Country!

At this moment, Chu Jin, upon learning the latest news, had a murderous intent flash across his body.

But quickly, he did not dwell on the matter and instead looked in another direction of the Ancient Battlefield, muttering:

"The Ancient Domain Relic, the largest and most important relic in the Ancient Battlefield, should be reopening soon. Within the Ancient Relic lies a great opportunity to reach the Dao Above. This time, I, the ruler, must seize that opportunity!"

Having reached a level of near invincibility below the Dao Above, Chu Jin's heart burned with even greater desire.

"And Lanlou, within the Ancient Relic, I, the ruler, will definitely slay you this time!"

...Time flew by, and another thousand years passed.

During these thousand years, Lin Yang gained profound insights.

The effect of the Asking Dao Pill far exceeded expectations.

In the six hundred and thirtieth year of his secluded cultivation, he had already touched the threshold of the Half-Step Dao Above.

Now, a thousand years have passed, and he is only one final step away from the Half-Step Dao Above.

"The effect of the Asking Dao Pill has worn off, but it doesn't matter. I just need to cultivate for a while longer, and I will surely step into the Half-Step Dao Above."

Lin Yang's heart was ablaze.

He had a premonition that it wouldn't be long before he officially stepped into the Half-Step Dao Above.

In the Battlefield Ancient Domain, in this very year, seven-colored divine light continuously emerged.

Throughout the entire Ancient Battlefield, the soaring treasure aura could be seen at any time.

People began to get a little excited.

"The entrance to the Ancient Domain Relic is starting to loosen. In at most a thousand years, the Ancient Domain Relic will fully open!"

"After so many years, the Ancient Domain Relic is finally going to open again. This time, I wonder which King will obtain the opportunity to reach the Dao Above."

"Another bloody storm is coming..."

Ordinary Half-Step Dao Aboves discussed.

And some Half-Step Dao Above powerhouses, who were almost invincible, were all eager and ready, looking forward to it.

Because the Ancient Domain Relic was the greatest opportunity in the Ancient Battlefield.

Sometimes, it wouldn't open even once in hundreds of thousands or millions of years.

But once it opened, there was a super opportunity to reach the Dao Above.

It wasn't that every opening would necessarily produce a Dao Above, but there was a seven or eight out of ten chance.

This naturally made it irresistible! (End of chapter)
