Chapter 994
Tang Huan\'s speed became faster and faster, both of his hands danced like butterflies, and in a radius of tens of metres, numerous afterimages constantly flashed and shattered.
In a short ten breaths, Tang Huan had already stopped in his tracks, and in front of him, were countless densely packed lines.
"This is the Spirit Map of the \'astral bridge\'!"
Tang Huan shot a sideways glance at the white robed middle-aged man, then swept his gaze at the green robed man\'s group and sneered, "The technique to cross the bridge is here. If you understand it, then you can naturally walk freely on the bridge like I do.
"You …"
The azure-robed man\'s eyes instantly turned cold as he became filled with anger.
However, Tang Huan no longer paid attention to him. With a slight movement of his feet, he had already brushed past the side of his body and stepped onto the "astral bridge", so what he drew couldn\'t be a complete "astral bridge" Spirit Map, but instead a tenth to twentieth step. Even if it was just this tiny bit, it was still not something they could comprehend.
Being mocked by Tang Huan in such a way, the expressions of everyone around turned ugly, as their gazes landed on the white clothed middle aged man one after the other. The Spirit Map looked like it was made up of countless big and small cobwebs, making their scalps go numb. They could only look forward to it.
Ever since the Spirit Map appeared, the middle-aged man in white robes had been sitting cross-legged on the ground, staring at him.
A moment later, the man in white started to mutter to himself. Sweat poured out of his forehead as his face became paler and paler. Even his body was trembling. The man fell to the ground, clutching his head and screaming.
Seeing the middle-aged man in white, the surrounding people all looked at each other. They were not shallow people so they could naturally guess that the reason why the middle-aged man was in such a state was probably because the Spirit Map that Tang Huan left on the ground had already far exceeded the limit of what he could comprehend.
If the Weapon Refiner were to try to deduce the Spirit Map unsuccessfully, he would definitely suffer a backlash.
After a short while, the white clothed middle-aged man finally recovered from his shock, and his face was filled with fear. He said with lingering fear in his heart, "The Spirit Map of this\' astral bridge \'is really too complicated, I … I can\'t figure it out! Let alone me, even a Saint-rank Heavenly Blacksmith would not necessarily be able to comprehend it. "
"If even a Saint-rank Heavenly Blacksmith can\'t comprehend it, then how did Tang Huan deduce it?!" The azure-robed man couldn\'t help but ask.
"Monster!" Tang Huan is a monster! " The middle-aged man in white gritted his teeth as he spoke.
"..."
Everyone exchanged glances and smiled wryly to themselves.
If the Spirit Map s who had comprehended the "astral bridge" could become like Tang Huan, then this kind of technique was indeed something no one could endure.
Although the words Tang Huan said before he left were unpleasant to hear, no one doubted that the unpredictable aura of the "Heaven Tier Bridge" was right there. After the Spirit Map came out, everyone knew that besides comprehending the Spirit Map like Tang Huan, there were no other techniques.
"Plop!"
A soft voice suddenly rang out. Everyone looked towards the direction of the voice as if they had a conditioned reflex. They saw that a black shadow had appeared near the lakeside.
Everyone was stunned, did Tang Huan fall into the water again?
"He fell into the water twice in a row. It seems that even if he comprehended this Spirit Map, he wouldn\'t be much of a threat." The azure-robed man let out a cold snort, then turned around and strode onto the \'astral bridge\' as if he was flying. Quite a few people gathered their emotions and started to act.
"Let\'s go, let\'s go. There aren\'t any shortcuts in this\' astral bridge \'. Everything depends on ourselves."
"If two months doesn\'t work, then four months. If four months doesn\'t work, then eight months. I refuse to believe that with my Yang Tribulation Cultivation base, I won\'t be able to cross this bridge."
"..."
The bridge. The water. The bridge. The water ….
Miserable screams rang out as the crowd continued to try again and again.
Tang Huan also did not stop his steps. After being brought back by the lake, he also continued to try, the third time, the fourth time … The tenth time... Twentieth time... Fiftieth time... The hundredth time … Almost every time he tried, Tang Huan would fail at the last step and fall into the lake.
At the beginning, many cultivators were ridiculing and gloating, but as the number of times Tang Huan had fallen into the water increased, they could no longer say such things.
It was normal to fail once or twice, and it was reasonable to fail a dozen or twenty times.
However, to be able to fail at the same location a hundred or two hundred times in a row was quite abnormal. Even if they were to try their luck with that final step, they would be able to make it once. Furthermore, Tang Huan had already comprehended the Spirit Map of the "astral bridge", so it was impossible for him to succeed in all the first stages, yet he would always fail in the end.
There was only one possibility for such a situation to happen, and that was that Tang Huan had been deliberately diving into the water.
The lake water contained an incomparable amount of Five Elements, and every time he fell into the lake, he would temper his body. Tang Huan was definitely borrowing the strength of the lake water to temper his body. When others fell into the lake, they felt incomparable pain. When Tang Huan fell into the lake, it was extremely easy.
Most importantly, Tang Huan had too much time.
Even if he had to spend another two months in tempering, he still had eight months to remain on the other side of the lake, enjoying the benefits of passing the "astral bridge" trial.
Although they understood this point, and everyone could only be envious and jealous, but no one dared to try it like Tang Huan. They did not even have the confidence to successfully pass the "astral bridge." How could they dare to waste precious time and deliberately fall into the lake, then enjoy the inhumane torture over and over again?
However, what the crowd didn\'t know was that they were only half right.
Tang Huan had indeed fallen into the water intentionally, but his reason for falling into the water was not to temper his body. Tempering the body was only along the way. His main goal was to absorb the "essence of his Five Elements" and increase the "Great Ultimate Spiritual Fire".
The days passed one by one …
Tang Huan fell into the water two to three hundred times a day as his body became more and more transparent. The "Great Ultimate Spiritual Fire" inside the Dantian Furnace also became more and more powerful.
Unknowingly, another month quietly went by.
"The \'Great Ultimate Spiritual Fire\' has long since been raised to the limits of what we can currently achieve, and the body has also been tempered to the limits. The \'essence of Five Elements\' accumulated in the cauldron is also numerous, so it\'s about time to cross the bridge!"
After climbing onto the shore of the lake once again, a satisfied smile surfaced on Tang Huan\'s face. For such a long period of time, he had taken the initiative to fall into the water, and traversed the entire lake once and once again. Not only did he acquire a large amount of "essence of Five Elements", the effect of his body tempering had also far surpassed that of any other cultivator who was forced into the lake.
In the next moment, Tang Huan had already rushed up the "astral bridge", continuously surpassing all the cultivators on it. When they saw Tang Huan\'s figure flying past them, the people on the bridge were already numb towards him. They were not surprised at all.
Not long after, Tang Huan arrived at the end of the bridge. Just when everyone habitually thought that Tang Huan would fall into the water again, he suddenly took a step forward, walked through the stairs that he had fallen thousands of times, and then went past the nine steps at the top of the lake, and stepped onto the other side.
