Legend of Swordsman - Chapter 3778
Chapter 3778: Three People
After learning from the white-bearded and white-robed elder that there was a third trial at the peak, Jian Wushuang did not stay any longer. Instead, he continued to walk up the steps toward the peak.
On the way, Jian Wushuang’s heart was quite heavy.
Previously, when he had not really come to the Heaven-Treading Mountain, he was still very confident in his strength.
Even after passing the test at the foot of the mountain, he was still full of confidence. He believed that with his strength, the test at the Heaven-Treading Mountain should not be difficult for him.
However, after passing the test at the mountainside, which was the battle with the white-bearded, white-robed old man, he did not have that much confidence.
One had to know that in the battle with the white-bearded, white-robed old man, he had truly gone all out. He had used all of his methods to defeat his opponent.
The strength that the white-bearded white-robed old man had displayed in that space of consciousness was definitely at the highest level among the Advanced Rulers.
For example, when he had been adventuring in the Red Cloud World, he had met the so-called number one Advanced Ruler in this star area, the Doom Ruler. the Doom Ruler’s strength was definitely not comparable to the white-bearded white-robed old man.
And the white-bearded white-robed old man’s strength also proved a problem.
The strength of the black-robed man at the foot of the mountain was the ultimate strength of a Primary Ruler.
At the waist of the mountain, the white-bearded white-robed elder was the ultimate strength of a Superior Ruler.
If this continued, would the test at the peak be the ultimate strength of a Superior Ruler?
A Superior Ruler…even if he used all his trump cards, his battle strength could barely reach the threshold of a Superior Ruler. If the gatekeeper at the peak really had the ultimate strength of a Superior Ruler…it would be impossible for him to defeat his opponent.
“I can only take it one step at a time. I hope the test on the peak is not so ridiculous.” Jian Wushuang could only sigh inwardly.
After crossing over 10,000 steps, Jian Wushuang finally reached the top of Heaven-Treading Mountain.
However, when he was dozens of steps away from the top of Heaven-Treading Mountain, he saw a snow-white figure half-lying there.
The snow-white figure was covered in snow-white fur. It was tall and had the face of an ape-man.
Obviously, this snow-white figure was not a human cultivator, but a special race in the universe.
“Is it the gatekeeper of the peak?” Jian Wushuang frowned slightly.
In his perception, the Snow-White Ape-Man also did not emit any aura. He lay motionless on the ground, as if he had fallen asleep.
Even though he was close, the Snow-White Ape-Man did not respond.
Jian Wushuang walked to the Snow-White Ape-Man and saw that the Ape Man still had his eyes closed. He could not help saying awkwardly, “Senior…”
“What?”
Hearing Jian Wushuang’s voice, the Snow-White Ape-Man finally reacted.
He turned slightly and slowly opened his eyes. A pair of strange cyan eyes instantly locked on Jian Wushuang.
“A human cultivator?”
The Snow-White Ape-Man stared at Jian Wushuang. At first, he was shocked, but then he was overjoyed. He immediately jumped up.
“Haha, a human cultivator. After so many years, there is finally a human cultivator here.”
“Hey, hey, Three-Eyed Demon Woman, Stone, hurry down. A human cultivator is here.”
The Snow-White Ape-Man’s laughter echoed.
Suddenly, two streams of light rushed over from the top step and appeared beside the Snow-White Ape-Man.
The streams of light disappeared, and two figures appeared in front of Jian Wushuang.
One of the two people was a graceful, beautiful, and extremely charming woman. Most of the parts of this charming woman were the same as that of a human woman. The only difference was that between her eyebrows…she had a strange Pupil that emitted a dim light.
She had a third eye, a vertical eye!
As for the other person, he was a Stone Man over five meters tall, made of special rocks. He had no nose, no ears, only a mouth and a pair of sunken eyes.
Jian Wushuang was shocked to see these two people.
Snow-White Ape-Man, Three-Eyed Demon Woman, five-meter-tall Stone Man…these three people obviously came from a special race in the universe, and they were all extraordinary.
Jian Wushuang thought there was only one gatekeeper at the peak, just like at the foot of the mountain and at the waist of the mountain. He did not expect there to be three people.
As for how strong these three people would be, Jian Wushuang could not guess.
“Haha, they are indeed human cultivators.”
The Three-Eyed Demon Woman stared at Jian Wushuang with a strange glint in her eyes. “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a human cultivator. It’s been hundreds of chaos cycles since the Red Cloud World was lost.”
“Tsk, tsk. When I was adventuring in the universe, my favorite thing was to eat the meat of these human cultivators. The stronger I was, the better the meat would be. It’s a pity that I was caught and sent to the Red Cloud World. Since then, I’ve never tasted a human cultivator.” The Snow-White Ape-Man stared at Jian Wushuang, his mouth was slightly agape, and there was a trace of greed in his eyes.
“It’s not that you don’t know the rules of the Red Cloud World. This human cultivator came here to pass the test. You two better not have any other thoughts.” The five-meter-tall Stone Man was more honest, his voice was incomparably heavy.
“Hmph, don’t worry. We know the rules of the Red Cloud World. We don’t dare to violate them.” The Three-Eyed Demon Woman smiled.
“It’s a pity. If we were in the outside world, I would have eaten him, but this is the Red Cloud World.” The Snow-White Ape-Man also revealed a regretful look.
Hearing the conversation between the three people, Jian Wushuang’s heart could not help tightening.
Especially when he heard the Snow-White Ape-Man say that he liked to eat human cultivators’meat, his expression changed. Fortunately, the three people were afraid of the rules of the Red Cloud World and did not dare to act recklessly, which made Jian Wushuang feel relieved.
“Are all of you the gatekeepers at the peak?” Jian Wushuang looked at the three people in front of him.
“Yes,” the Three-Eyed Demon Woman said, “As a Principles Master, it’s already good enough for you to get here. However, the peak is guarded by the three of us. If you want to go to the Second Heaven, you have to pass through the three of us. However, the level guarded by the three of us can not be easily passed by anyone.”
“Little guy, you’re just a Principles Master, so the three of us will naturally restrain our power. Even so, it’s not easy for those first-level masters to pass through us. Do you want to give it a try?” The Snow-White Ape-Man curled his finger at Jian Wushuang.
