319: The Blazing Bridge, Tempering the Soul

"Divine Bridge? Divine River, Sea of Consciousness, Divine Bridge—it all lines up. It's indeed a Divine Soul arrangement. So, if we step onto the Divine Bridge next, can we reach the other shore?"

Yan Junlin gazed at the Divine Bridge ahead, a peculiar glint in his eyes.

Along the way, there were some killing intents, but with those in the Dragon Transformation Realm and Divine Court clearing the path, the dangers they faced were naturally greatly reduced.

However, they didn't seem to find any treasures.

Perhaps the true treasures were hidden on the other shore. If they couldn't even set foot on the other shore, how could they obtain the true supreme treasures?

Sword Yuanzi stared at the blazing Divine Bridge before him and said in a deep voice, "The Divine Bridge is a bridge of Divine Soul that Divine Court cultivators need to construct. This place is a world constructed by Divine Soul, and it must contain profound Divine Soul Great Dao. If we step onto this Divine Bridge, we might be able to prematurely comprehend the mysteries of the Divine Court..."

For them, entering the Dragon Transformation Realm was already a huge problem. As for the Divine Court Realm, it was still too far away, but they could get a preliminary understanding.

Yan Ruyi chuckled, "If we want to comprehend the mysteries of the Divine Court, shouldn't we start from the Divine River? Now that we've crossed the Divine River and Sea of Consciousness, what can we gain by trying to comprehend from the Divine Bridge?"

Lin Qinghuang glanced indifferently at Yan Ruyi: "Most Divine Court cultivators are trapped in the Sea of Consciousness Realm and find it difficult to construct a Divine Bridge. If a cultivator constructs a powerful Divine Bridge, they will naturally leave a special Divine Soul Dao Rhyme on it. There's no problem in trying to comprehend the mysteries of the Divine Court from the Divine Bridge."

"Oh! Little sister knows so much! You're not from Great Xia, are you?"

Yan Ruyi scrutinized Lin Qinghuang, her smile very wide.

Lin Qinghuang ignored Yan Ruyi. She softly said to Xie Weilou: "Other people's paths ultimately belong to them. If one doesn't know the threshold, one can naturally glimpse some mysteries from their methods."

"But if you have your own path to walk, then there's no need to over-comprehend others' paths. Just walk your own Dao! This Divine Bridge can temper the Divine Soul; it should only be used to temper the Divine Soul, no need to comprehend other things."

After speaking, she directly stepped onto the blazing Divine Bridge.

Buzz!

The moment Lin Qinghuang stepped onto the Divine Bridge, the surrounding flames surged wildly, burning her Divine Soul, but there was not a ripple in her eyes as she walked slowly forward.

At this moment, she was like a Pure Blue Lotus (Pure World Green Lotus) amidst the flames, impervious to all methods.

"......"

Seeing this, Xie Weilou smiled calmly and followed Lin Qinghuang's footsteps.

After stepping onto the Divine Bridge, the flames surged, directly burning his soul. An extremely intense stinging sensation came over him, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, but he did not stop and moved forward quickly.

Strangely enough, as the flames burned his soul, he found that his soul was not damaged; instead, it was slowly strengthening, as if these flames could temper the soul, which was truly extraordinary.

Of course, this kind of pain would surely be unbearable for most people. Most of the people present today would probably stop at the Divine Bridge.

"......"

Upon seeing this, Yan Junlin and the others pondered for a moment before quickly stepping onto the Divine Bridge.

Without crossing the Divine Bridge, they naturally wouldn't be qualified to reach the other shore.

"Ah..."

Suddenly, a scream rang out. Some of the demon race members could not bear the burning pain of the flames on their souls. Their bodies trembled, and they instantly fell off the Divine Bridge.

But they did not fall into the sea of fire; instead, they directly disappeared from this world, as if they had been eliminated and sent to the outside world.

"Ah..."

Screams continued to ring out, and people kept falling off the Divine Bridge.

At first, it was only people from the demon race, then some disciples from the Holy Academy, and later, the elders of the four major sects.

Among the four major sects, the elders of Hengyuan Sect and Miaozhen Sect failed directly and fell off the Divine Bridge.

Those who could still hold on were Sword Yuanzi and Dan Chenzi. Sword Yuanzi, who cultivated the Sword Dao, had an extraordinary mind and was still struggling to hold on.

Dan Chenzi, as an alchemist, had a strong soul power and could also endure for a while.

"They seem to have disappeared out of thin air. Falling off the Divine Bridge doesn't seem to lead to annihilation."

Yan Junlin and the others also had their souls burned by the flames, feeling as if their souls were being torn apart.

However, all of them possessed extraordinary mental fortitude and ignored the burning sensation of the flames, instead quickly following in the footsteps of Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang.

This burning sensation could temper the power of the soul, and the enhancement of the soul made people excited.

The Divine Bridge seemed endless. As they continued forward, the burning of the soul by the flames became even more terrifying. Even Sword Yuanzi and Dan Chenzi found it difficult to endure and eventually fell off the blazing Divine Bridge.

In a flash.

Half an hour passed.

Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang walked side by side. He had completely adapted to the feeling of his soul being burned by the flames, and the pain had disappeared.

Moreover, the subsequent flame burning seemed to have little effect on him and could no longer continue to strengthen his soul.

Lin Qinghuang calmly looked at Xie Weilou: "The power of the flames on this Divine Bridge can temper soul power, but once you completely adapt to the burning sensation, the tempering will gradually become ineffective."

"So that's how it is! Then let's speed up."

Xie Weilou smiled and nodded.

He had consumed Mend the Sky Defect, and his soul power had already increased significantly. Now, it had increased even more, which was a good harvest.

"Follow me!"

Lin Qinghuang's figure flickered, taking steps of a hundred meters, directly accelerating her pace.

"......"

Xie Weilou quickly followed.

Their speed was extremely fast, and after a moment, Yan Junlin and the others behind them could no longer see their shadows.

"These two..."

Yan Junlin and the others' eyes revealed a solemn expression.

These two were extremely strange and unfathomable, making it difficult for them to see through them at all.

"This is a good place to cultivate. It seems there's no need to rush forward. Let's cultivate here for a while before continuing."

Yan Qingcheng looked at Yan Junlin. This place could temper the Divine Soul, perhaps they could cultivate here.

"That makes sense..."

Yan Junlin sat down cross-legged on the ground.

The burning sensation here was still incredibly strong for him; he couldn't adapt to it yet, so he could continue to temper his soul.

Compared to the treasures that would come later, this tempering of the soul was more direct and should not be missed.

Yan Qingcheng, Yan Ruyu, Yan Quanzhen, and the others also did not hesitate, sitting down one after another to diligently temper their souls.

"Hehe!"

Yan Ruyi let out a soft laugh.

She didn't sit down to comprehend, but instead, her figure flashed, and she rushed forward.

Clearly, the flames here could no longer temper her Divine Soul.

In a flash.

Another half an hour passed.

Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang successfully crossed the Divine Bridge, and what appeared before them was a land of white bones.

More accurately, it was perhaps a huge island of white bones. Within the island, various mysterious white bones stood erect, some of which were enormous, like mountains.

Before the white bone island, there was a stone tablet with two characters: "Other Shore"!

"......"

Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang stepped onto the land of the Other Shore.
