C227 The East Elder's Test

"Why not?" The old man with the crutch also had a violent temper, as if he didn't want to be looked down upon by the East Elder. Although he knew that it was an open plot, he still jumped in on his own accord.

After the old man with the crutch said this, he walked straight towards the narrow road.

When Elder Dong saw that the old man with the crutch indeed acted as he had thought, the corners of his mouth revealed a trace of a pleased and sinister smile.

There was obviously something wrong with that narrow road. Perhaps other than the flames that could be seen on the surface, there was also a possibility that there was something wrong with that narrow road. There might also be some hidden traps.

It was precisely because of this that the East Elder deliberately used words to provoke the old man with the crutch and let him explore the path.

It had to be said that this move was very clever.

Ye Heng looked at the pleased smile on the East Elder's face and could not help but feel a chill in his heart.

Whether it was a plot or a plot, this East Elder had used it perfectly.

And the most important thing was that this East Elder of the Ghost Sect was also very terrifying.

He had already reached the Fifth Layer of Essence Image Stage, and with his current strength, coupled with his scheming mind, it made him even more terrifying.

The old man with the crutch. Naturally, he wasn't an idiot.

After all, if he was really an idiot, it was impossible for him to reach the Essence Image Stage.

When he saw the raging flames burning on the narrow path, he prepared to fly across the narrow path with his Essence Image Stage strength.

Thinking of this, the old man with the crutch raised both of his hands and suddenly knocked the ground with the crutch in his hand.

In the next moment, he turned into a black light and shot out from where he was at an extremely fast speed, flying straight towards the sky above the narrow road.

In his line of sight, the old man with the crutch flew to the sky above the narrow road in just a breath's time.

However, just as he flew into the sky above the narrow road.

The black light surrounding his body turned into nothingness in an instant, and he was exposed to the air.

At the same time, the old man holding the crutch in the air felt an immense pressure around him, and he could no longer absorb any spiritual energy from the air.

Moreover, even the connection between him and the elemental energy in his Dantian had become much more obscure at this moment.

In the next moment, in everyone's sight, the old man holding the crutch seemed to have lost his Origin Energy. He fell from the sky and directly fell towards the narrow road that was burning with raging flames.

However, this old man with the crutch was not an ordinary person either.

He was a Fifth Layer of Essence Image Stage warrior, what kind of storms and waves had he not seen before?

Hence, almost as soon as he noticed that the Origin Energy around his body had disappeared, he quickly reacted.

The old man, who had just started to fall with the crutch in his right hand, waved the crutch in the air gently with his right hand.

Immediately after, violent elemental energy swept out from his Dantian and surrounded his entire body through his crutch.

In the next moment, a Yuan energy barrier that was exactly the same as the one protecting Ye Heng and the others appeared around his body.

However, the Yuan energy barrier on his body looked much smaller than the one on Ye Heng and the others.

"Pffft. "

The old man who had landed on the narrow road with a crutch on his back burst forth with a terrifying wave of air.

It was caused by the flames on the narrow road beneath his feet and the elemental energy barrier on his body colliding with each other.

Although Ye Heng did not know how high the temperature of the flames on the narrow road was, judging from the expression of the old man with the crutch, it was probably even higher than Ye Heng's imagination.

Because, after the old man with the crutch landed on the narrow road, his face suddenly became darker than the bottom of a pot.

From this, one could guess that the temperature of the raging flames on the narrow road was difficult for even Essence Image Stage warriors to resist.

If there were no accidents, with Ye Heng's strength, he would be burnt into a pile of charcoal the moment he stepped on the narrow road.

At this moment, even with the protection of the old man's Yuan energy barrier, Ye Heng could feel the temperature around him being extremely high.

However, what made Ye Heng feel a little strange was that other than him, no one else present seemed to be able to feel this hot temperature.

Ye Heng didn't find it strange at all that the two Essence Image Stage warriors could ignore this hot temperature.

However, the remaining strength of the four people, who were lingering around Yuan Gate and Essence Vortex Stage, also had a casual expression.

Ye Heng did not see any difficulty from the two of them.

After sensing this situation, Ye Heng could not help but mutter a few words in his heart. In the end, he could only conclude that this was a unique technique of the Ghost Sect.

In fact, the real situation wasn't what Ye Heng had imagined.

Masked man and Lim Hua were protected by extremely rare and precious Essence Artifacts. The other two girls, Zi Yuv, and Bi Yuv, were protected by their special physiques.

No matter what, at this moment, the one who was somewhat miserable was Ye Heng.

At this moment, the old man who was still on the narrow road with a crutch on his hand had an extremely gloomy expression. A glint flashed across his eyes for a moment before he gripped the crutch tightly and suddenly swung it behind him.

"Puhwark. . . Puhwark!"

Fifth Layer of Essence Image Stage Yuan energy erupted without any reservation. In an instant, the burning flames on the narrow road seemed to be suppressed as they retreated a little to the side.

The old man with the crutch took advantage of this opportunity to lightly tap his feet on the ground. After a few leaps, he came back again.

"Old Dong, you tricked me? There is a no-fly formation in the sky above that road. Do you want me to die?" The old man with the crutch roared at Elder Dong furiously.

However, Elder Dong seemed very calm when he saw the angry expression on the old man's face.

"Did I force you to explore the path? You said you wanted to go. " Elder Dong shrugged his shoulders and replied casually.

Hearing this, the old man with the crutch could not help but be at a loss for words.

Indeed, he had just said that he wanted to give it a try.

Therefore, even if he suffered a loss, he could only swallow it in his heart.

When he thought of this, the anger on the old man's face became even more intense. He suddenly waved his sleeves and did not say anything else as he walked to the side.

After seeing this scene, Ye Heng could not help but secretly doubt his previous guess.

Perhaps this old man with the crutch was not the kind of person Ye Heng thought was cautious.

If he was really cautious and cautious, he would not have fallen for the East Elder's scheme so easily.

Therefore, after thinking about this, Ye Heng started to question his previous guess.

Although the old man with the crutch did not succeed on the other side of the narrow road, it allowed the East Elder to see a lot of things from it.

First, the sky above the narrow road was a no-fly formation.

A no-fly formation, as its name suggested, could not fly as long as it was within the range of the no-fly formation.

That was the reason why the crutch holding old man fell from the sky just now.

Secondly, Elder Dong also noticed that the raging flames on the narrow road were so strong that even Essence Image Stage warriors would have a hard time defending against them.

It was already worth it to be able to find out these two points.

Elder Dong's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately walked to the front of the narrow road.

When he saw that Elder Dong was about to make a move, The others couldn't help but cast their gazes on him.

That was true. Apart from the old man with the crutch earlier, Elder Dong's strength was the highest among the people present.

Just now, the old man with the crutch was at a disadvantage.

Now, he could only look at Elder Dong.

If Elder Dong had no other choice, their plan this time would definitely die prematurely.

However, to Ye Heng, he was very happy to see that scene.

"Chi. . . "

The hot flames burned so hot that even the air produced explosive sounds. The terrifying heat waves kept rolling around the narrow road.

"Phew. . . Hu. . . Hu!"

Elder Dong stopped about five meters away from the narrow path, then extended his right hand and opened it.

In an instant, a gust of wind blew. A dark and deep elemental energy mixed within the wind and swept toward the narrow path.

However, just as the pitch black gust of wind arrived in front of the narrow path, it seemed to have hit an invisible wall. No matter what, it could not take another step forward.

At the same time, the flames on the narrow road seemed to have come alive at this moment. In less than half a breath's time, they condensed into a crimson column of fire, bombarding the place where the East Elder was standing at lightning speed.

"Chi. . . Chi. . . Chi. . . Chi. . . "

That was the sound produced when the flames melted the ground.

A moment ago, the ground where the East Elder was standing had already formed a circular hole that was thirty feet deep.

On both sides of the circular hole, there were still wisps of flames burning continuously.

At this moment, Elder Dong had appeared ten feet away from the crater.

Fortunately, the place where everyone was standing was relatively open.

Otherwise, it would be a problem no matter how Elder Dong dodged the attack.

"I never thought that he would have such spirituality. Not simple, not simple at all. " A trace of astonishment appeared in Elder Dong's eyes as he repeatedly said two things that were not simple.

After pondering for a moment, Elder Dong smiled and said to himself, "Fine, I'll give it a try!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Dong lifted his leg and walked straight towards the narrow path. There was a transparent Yuan Power barrier around his body.

This time, the invisible wall that had resisted Elder Dong's probing attack did not appear at this moment.

Just like that, Elder Dong walked into the narrow road without any hindrance.
