"This is the Hell Path?"

Li Yun could not help sucking in a breath of cold air.

This was only the first trial of the Six Paths Pagoda, yet it was already this difficult. He feared that not many people could pass even this single level.

The following five trials would certainly be far more difficult than this Hell Path. Passing all six trials within half a month would be terrifyingly difficult.

"No matter what, I will kill them first."

He gave a cold snort, and the Sword-Nurturing Gourd appeared in his hand.

Pulling out the stopper, exactly nine hundred and ninety-nine precious swords whistled out, emitting sharp Sword Light that sliced through space and crushed the monsters one by one.

Facing so many monsters, the Sword Control Art was undoubtedly the best method. It could quickly kill the weaker monsters, allowing him to slowly deal with the few monster leaders afterward.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

Sword Qi boiled as sharp Sword Light sliced in all directions, erupting with matchless slaughtering power.

One monster after another was rapidly slain, with cyan, purple, and black blood splashing all over the ground.

"Roar!"

Just then, the Blade Devil leader, which was covered in sickles and stood seven or eight meters tall, suddenly roared at the sky.

Its body leaped abruptly, jumping dozens of meters and appearing directly in front of Li Yun.

Then, the dozens of sickles on its back suddenly detached themselves, soared into the sky, and condensed into a giant blade that hacked down toward Li Yun’s head.

At the same time, the Blood Devil also appeared beside Li Yun.

Evil blood qi surged out frantically, coiling toward Li Yun like a blood snake.

Further away, a monster leader standing fifty meters tall with a hundred eyes on its chest let out a howl. The hundreds of eyes on its chest simultaneously emitted sharp beams of light, shooting toward Li Yun.

The three monster leaders launched fatal attacks on Li Yun at the same time.

"Grand Profound Five Elements Sword."

Facing the attacks of the three monster leaders, Li Yun also erupted.

The sword in his hand burst forth with matchless and intensely dazzling light.

This intense destructive power could easily destroy several large mountains and split apart a vast land. Naturally, the attacks of the three monster leaders were also cleaved apart by this single sword strike.

"Sword Control Art."

Immediately, he simultaneously controlled nine hundred and ninety-nine precious swords, which streaked across the Blood Devil’s body like meteors, directly strangling this monster leader into pieces on the spot.

"Roar!"

The death of one monster leader infuriated the remaining five leader-level monsters.

They let out astonishing roars, so ear-piercing that they were enough to shatter any cultivator below the Heavenly Core Realm.

The enchantingly curvaceous Charm Devil swayed her body, emitting a pink mist. The mist swirled around, giving off a strange aura that made people unable to resist falling into a daze and losing their reason.

The eerie monster with hundreds of eyes on its chest suddenly saw its eyes split apart, actually dividing into a full thousand strange vertical eyes, all emitting sharp beams of light at the same time.

There was also the Blade Devil, a Giant Spirit Devil several hundred meters tall, and a strange monster covered in slime like mud. All of them released terrifying killing moves, bombarding Li Yun.

Not just these leader-level monsters, but even the ordinary monsters rushed toward Li Yun under the summons of the five leaders.

For a moment, a tide-like wave of attacks directly submerged Li Yun.

Aurora Step.

Facing such a terrifying attack, Li Yun did not dare to be careless.

His figure shifted horizontally at extreme speed, and in the blink of an eye, he dodged most of the bombardment.

As for the attacks he could not dodge, he controlled the sword formation, releasing matchless and sharp Sword Qi to directly blast those attacks apart.

"Die."

In the next moment, his figure appeared beside the Charm Devil.

Among these leader monsters, the Charm Devil had the weakest combat power and mainly relied on charm techniques. Naturally, she became the first target Li Yun chose to kill.

Swish!

A strand of Sword Qi swept out, directly piercing through the Charm Devil’s seductive body.

Her so-called charm had no effect on Li Yun at all.

Then, Li Yun’s figure flickered again, appearing behind the strange monster with a thousand eyes.

He unleashed a fast sword, directly tearing its body in half.

"Sword Control Art."

Immediately, the nine hundred and ninety-nine precious swords erupted and directly crushed the Blade Devil.

In the blink of an eye, three leader-level monsters had been slain by Li Yun.

But Li Yun’s expression did not relax.

He looked at the last two monster leaders, and his face became even more solemn.

The reason he had left these two monster leaders for last was that he had discovered their strength far exceeded the other four.

If the Charm Devil and the other three leaders were only at the initial stage of the 8th level of Heavenly Core Realm, then these two could be considered to have reached minor accomplishment at the 8th level of Heavenly Core Realm.

"Bing."

He activated the Nine Syllable Mantra, and a "Bing" character seal flew out, attaching itself to his sword.

Instantly, his sword burst with brilliant light, and its power doubled.

"Grand Profound Five Elements Sword."

Then, he exerted his full strength.

Bang!

The massive corpses fell to the ground, making a sound like muffled thunder and causing the ground to shake several times.

Seeing that all six leaders had died, the ordinary monsters became terrified and fell into complete chaos. Under these circumstances, they were naturally easily slain by Li Yun.

"Phew!"

Only after killing the last monster did Li Yun finally let out a breath.

The process of killing these monsters had looked easy, but in reality, he had used almost all his methods to successfully slay them.

This was only the first floor of the Six Paths Pagoda. One could imagine how abnormal the difficulty of the next few floors would be.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Just then, the countless monster corpses on the ground suddenly decomposed automatically, melting into a cloud of blood-red mist. Then, it soared into the sky and surged directly into Li Yun’s body.

"Hm?"

Li Yun’s expression changed, and he was about to expel the blood-red mist from his body.

But then, he discovered that after entering his body, the mist not only caused no damage but was actually strengthening his blood energy.

Under the enhancement of this blood-red mist, his physical strength increased greatly. Although his Ninefold Origin Flesh Scripture was still stuck at the seventh stage, Indestructible Body, he could clearly feel that his body had become stronger.

"Could it be that every time I pass a floor of the Six Paths Pagoda, I can obtain an opportunity?"

Li Yun’s heart stirred, and he suddenly felt some anticipation toward the Six Paths Pagoda.

If his guess was true, then this Six Paths Pagoda could be considered a treasure land.

Buzz!

Just then, the environment before him changed.

He appeared once again in an empty and dim space, with another formation appearing before him.

Compared to the previous formation, this one appeared more complex, and the aura it emitted was even more terrifying. Even from a distance, it gave off a gloomy and horrifying atmosphere.

"Let us go."

However, Li Yun naturally would not feel fear because of this.

His body flickered, and he stepped into the range of the formation without hesitation.

In the next moment, his figure appeared in a gloomy space. This place was somewhat similar to the Hell Path, but it was even colder, making one feel a chill permeating the entire body.

In the center of this gloomy space was a huge blood pool.

However, the blood pool had already dried up, with only solidified blood remaining on the walls of the pool.

Crash!

Suddenly, as if sensing Li Yun’s arrival, the blood pool began to shake.

Then, from the blood pool, countless skin-and-bones, emaciated Hungry Ghosts crawled out.

"Eat, eat, I want to eat..."

Each Hungry Ghost made indistinct sounds as they crawled out of the blood pool, crowding together densely.

At a glance, there were no fewer than a hundred thousand of them.

"These Hungry Ghosts are actually so weak?"

However, seeing so many Hungry Ghosts, Li Yun not only did not panic, but instead frowned.

Because in his perception, these Hungry Ghosts were all incredibly weak. Not a single one had even reached the Earthly Core Realm. Although there were over a hundred thousand of them, they could not pose any threat to him at all.

How could this Hungry Ghost Path be even weaker than the Hell Path?

"Eat, eat, eat!"

In the next moment, a scalp-tingling change suddenly occurred.
