702: Chapter 702 Hmm? Wait a minute! Night has fallen?

A moment later, Su Yun's footsteps faltered, and a spark of spiritual light flashed in his mind.

"I have been observing every part of this Tongtian Road, but I haven't found a single clue. Perhaps... I should observe other places!"

Immediately after, he turned around, resisting the incomparably powerful pressure on his body, and walked quickly to the edge of the Tongtian Road.

Seeing this, Meng Shuyan's beautiful eyes flickered. She also stopped, walked to his side, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

After Su Yun's gaze swept across the edge of the black steps, he lowered his eyes and looked down.

He saw that the large expanse of ruins from before now looked incomparably tiny when viewed from such a height.

At the same time, he could also see the remnants of a few towering ancient trees.

Looking further into the distance.

He could also see those mist-filled areas that circled far around the Tongtian Road.

Just as he had guessed before, they formed a circle from afar.

However, he did not see the figures of any other Cultivators; presumably, they had not yet arrived here.

Su Yun watched for several breaths, only to feel that there was nothing wrong with anything.

The ruins created by the previous battle remained unchanged.

Those towering ancient trees in the distance.

The mist that permeated everywhere was also just as it had been before.

The power of the Heavenly Dao surrounding them had not changed either.

Everything was perfectly normal!

"Could it really be that Revered Master and I both sensed it wrong? That's impossible!"

A look of doubt flashed across Su Yun's face; he still didn't have much of a clue.

Yet he always felt that their intuition had not been wrong.

Immediately, Su Yun couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at the sky, beginning to observe the situation in the air.

"Since I have observed the situation on the ground, I might as well check the situation in the high sky!"

The sky at this moment had become much darker.

It was vastly different from the bright sky when they had first entered.

It seemed that this Small World was quite realistic, as it appeared to have a distinction between day and night.

And now, it was estimated that nightfall was approaching...

Hmm? Wait a moment! Nightfall?

Thinking of this, Su Yun looked down at the ground again.

Only then did he notice that the ground had also become much dimmer.

And when he had looked just a moment ago, he had been completely unaware of it!

Su Yun's eyes suddenly lit up; he felt as if a layer of mist in his mind had been directly brushed away.

"Revered Master, what was the sky like when we first entered the Tongtian Road? What time did it seem to be?"

Meng Shuyan pondered for a moment and answered directly:

"Hmm... When we entered the Tongtian Road, Revered Master... I only remember that the sky seemed quite bright at that time; it was likely around noon!"

"Noon? The sky is so dark now, it clearly looks more like..."

Su Yun's heart jolted, his brows furrowed, and his expression became solemn as he muttered in a low voice.

Meng Shuyan blinked, "Yun'er, what is it? Is there a problem?"

"Revered Master, do you still remember how long we have been walking on this Tongtian Road?"

Su Yun asked again in a serious tone.

"How long? Haven't we just come up here not long ago?"

Meng Shuyan pursed her red lips, and a look of confusion flashed across her pretty face.

It was as if a portion of her memory had become blurred.

Immediately, she continued somewhat uncertainly:

"Hmm? Revered Master... seems to be unable to remember clearly!"

"As expected, if I haven't guessed wrong, we have already been on this Tongtian Road for at least four hours."

Su Yun paused, and after pondering for a moment, he said with a certain tone.

"What? Four hours? That can't be right!"

Meng Shuyan's beautiful eyes widened, her red lips slightly parted, somewhat shocked.

"This Tongtian Road doesn't look that long from a distance!"

"Even if we couldn't fly directly up, we should have been able to finish walking it in at most half an hour! What on earth is going on?"

"Perhaps it's not just four hours; it's possible that several days have passed!"

Su Yun stroked his chin, lost in thought.

"Several days?" Meng Shuyan's delicate body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath, "Yun'er, aren't you overthinking this?"

Su Yun shook his head and explained:

"Revered Master, I am not overthinking it!"

"Have you noticed... ever since we stepped onto this Tongtian Road, in the process of walking upwards, we haven't perceived the changes in the surrounding light and the sky at all!"

"Clearly, with our current cultivation, even without releasing our Divine Sense, our perception is extremely formidable. Therefore, generally speaking, it is impossible for us not to perceive these changes!"

"Yet we walked for so long just now and simply didn't notice!"

"It seems so... After Revered Master stepped onto this place, I was single-mindedly thinking about passing through this Tongtian Road quickly with you, Yun'er. So, Revered Master didn't notice these changes either!"

Hearing this, Meng Shuyan couldn't help but nod slightly, agreeing with his statement.

Su Yun: "That is why I said it is possible that it has already been several days."

"Yun'er, does that mean you think we have been trapped on the Tongtian Road for several days?"

"This... is only a possibility! After all, it is also possible that only four hours have passed since we walked onto the Tongtian Road."

"It seems now that regardless of the Divine Soul impacts on those black steps, or the pressure that has been shrouding us at every moment, they are all a smokescreen. This is the true test on the Tongtian Road!"

Su Yun speculated.

It had to be said that this test was truly quite difficult.

It caught people off guard!

If it weren't for the fact that his and Revered Master's Divine Souls were extremely formidable.

They would certainly have been completely affected.

The result would likely have been that they remained trapped on this Tongtian Road forever.

Walking and walking, never reaching the end.

Yet they wouldn't have had the slightest realization, continuing to walk upwards endlessly.

Until the very moment the Ancient Road to Immortality closed!

By that time, it would be equivalent to having come for nothing!

Meng Shuyan: "Then Yun'er, what should we do now?"

"This Tongtian Road has likely affected our perception. So, it is estimated that we won't be able to reach the exit at the top by just walking straight!"

"Next, we must look to see if there is any pattern. Perhaps if we find the right pattern, we will be able to truly pass through this Tongtian Road!"

"Mhm, you are right, Yun'er!"

Meng Shuyan agreed.

Su Yun turned around directly and continued to walk forward.

And Meng Shuyan followed closely behind.

As Su Yun walked, he paid attention to the ruins below the Tongtian Road.

At this moment, his gaze was focused on a piece of rubble in the ruins, and he silently calculated the approximate distance in his mind.

At the same time, his footsteps did not cease, and he continued to walk forward.

Soon, Su Yun made a slight discovery. He turned his head to look at Meng Shuyan, his tone gentle.

"Revered Master, we have walked several more steps just now, but the distance from the ground below seems to have remained unchanged! This means that we are currently equivalent to walking in place!"

"Walking in place?" Meng Shuyan's willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed slightly, "But we have walked over many steps, haven't we? How could this be?"
