The Huoxing Taoist shook his head, looking puzzled.
"I'm not sure what the purpose of the Path of Transition is. I've searched through all kinds of information about it, but I can't figure out its purpose.
It seems that the purpose of its existence is to help life forms that have reached the limits of the Outerworld to advance! "
"Help life forms that have reached the limits of the Outerworld to advance?
Can all life forms come here? "Xu Yan was puzzled. How could there be such a secret realm?
The Huoxing Taoist shook his head. "Basically, all life forms can come here, but there's one kind of life form that's an exception!"
"That kind?" Xu Yan asked curiously.
"It's the Anomalies!"
The Huoxing Taoist continued. "No matter what level the Anomaly is, as long as it gets close to the Path of Transition, it will be killed by the Path of Transition's defense system!"
"It's actually the Anomalies!"
Xu Yan was shocked. The Anomalies were actually so special in the Outerworld?!
They had the ability to revive infinitely, which no life form in the entire universe had, but they were not recognized by the Path of Transition. It was really puzzling.
"Don't think so much. It's too far away for us. Even if we discover something, we can't do anything about it."
Seeing that Xu Yan had been thinking about this problem, the Huoxing Taoist reminded him.
Xu Yan nodded. These things were indeed not for him to think about at the moment. He would just leave this question to the people in the Inner World to worry about!
…
Although the planet where the Path of Transition was located seemed close, it was still very far away. Xu Yan and the Huoxing Taoist flew for half a month before they arrived at the planet.
In this half a month, Xu Yan's Spiritual Power had increased to 14000, and his Iron Cloak Technique had been upgraded to the Seventh Transformation True Form.
The reason why he had only reached the Seventh Transformation True Form was that his body needed three days to adapt after each upgrade.
However, even though he had only reached the Seventh Transformation True Form, Xu Yan's martial arts system strength was already on par with his Spiritual Power.
However, at the same time that his strength had increased so much, the martial arts system's need for Modification Points had also begun to become apparent.
Every time a martial arts system was upgraded, the modification points required would double!
Xu Yan had spent 16384 modification points to upgrade from the True Body Sixth Cycle to the True Body Seventh Cycle!
After that, the required modification value would become more and more terrifying.
After upgrading it ten times, the modification points needed for each upgrade would reach ten million. If it were to be upgraded a few more times, the modification points needed would reach a hundred million!
Xu Yan's martial arts system could be upgraded once every three days, even though there were still a dozen or so times he could upgrade it!
In other words, in two months at most, the Modification Points that Xu Yan had worked so hard to collect for half a year would all be used up!
…
Xu Yan and the Huoxing Taoist landed on the asteroid where the Path of Transition was located.
The gravity on the planet was indeed three hundred times stronger than normal, but for Xu Yan and the Huoxing Taoist, it was not worth mentioning!
Xu Yan could just rely on his body to resist.
The Huoxing Taoist also had an embryonic path that could easily isolate the effects of gravity.
They landed on the asteroid.
Xu Yan's first impression was that the asteroid was very flat!
Moreover, it was very round. If an ordinary person stepped on this kind of ground, they would probably slip and not be able to stand steadily!
This was because the gravity of this planet was too high!
This kind of situation occurred because the ground was pressed too hard.
The Huoxing Taoist identified the direction and led Xu Yan in a certain direction.
A few minutes later, a black spatial passage appeared in front of them.
Walking in front of it, the Huoxing Taoist said, "This is the entrance to the Path of Transition. Go through it and you will enter the world of the Path of Transition!"
After saying that, the Huoxing Taoist plunged in. Xu Yan also followed behind and walked into the spatial passage.
After a series of spatial changes, the Huoxing Taoist and Xu Yan appeared on a white stone platform.
Xu Yan looked around and observed the surrounding environment.
The sky of this world was dark and there was only a faint light that reflected the appearance of the world.
At a glance, everything in this world was black. There was no other color at all.
The ground was black, the mountains were black, and even some plants were black!
Except for the stone platform under Xu Yan's feet which was white and looked rather conspicuous.
"We have now entered the Path of Transition. First, we have to find Start City. This city is the shelter of the entire Path of Transition. It is absolutely safe there!"
The Huoxing Taoist looked around vigilantly and entered a state of alert.
"Start City is absolutely safe?" Xu Yan understood what the Huoxing Taoist meant.
"In other words, we will encounter danger at any time here?"
The Huoxing Taoist nodded, indicating that Xu Yan's guess was right.
Xu Yan spread out his mental power and spread it out. Knowing the limit of his mental power, Xu Yan did not detect any creatures.
"According to my senses, there doesn't seem to be any aggressive creatures nearby," said Xu Yan.
"No?"
The Huoxing Taoist was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of something and relaxed his vigilance. "It seems that we should be very close to Start City. That's why there are no black monsters!"
"Black monsters?
What are those? "asked Xu Yan.
"Black monsters are one of the monsters exclusive to the Path of Transition. If you want to pass the first level of the Path of Transition, you have to kill enough black monsters!" explained the Huoxing Taoist.
"These black monsters are very powerful. Even the weakest one is equivalent to an ordinary Extreme Powerhouse of the outer world!"
"Among them, the stronger ones are close to the Immortal Realm!"
After listening to the Huoxing Taoist's explanation, Xu Yan understood. The first level of the Path of Transition was equivalent to a monster dungeon. They had to kill enough monsters to enter the next level!
"Let's go to Start City first. It shouldn't be far from us!"
With that said, the Huoxing Taoist shot out a symbol. The symbol floated in the air for a while before floating in a direction.
"This is the Tracking Runes. It can find the marks left by our world's seniors in Start City."
Seeing Xu Yan's confusion, the Huoxing Taoist explained, "As long as you follow this Runes, you'll be able to reach Start City."
Xu Yan nodded. He did not expect the Huoxing Taoist to be so well-prepared!
…
Following the Runes, Xu Yan and the Huoxing Taoist kept moving forward.
After about 24 hours, the two of them finally saw a large city with high walls in the distance.
Now that they saw Start City, the two of them no longer followed the tracking mark slowly. Instead, they flew up and wanted to quickly fly to the city!
However, what the two of them did not notice was that the tracking symbol sent out by the Huoxing Taoist continued moving in the original direction for a while. Suddenly, it changed direction and flew to the left of the original direction …
Under the fast flight, the two of them soon arrived in front of the large city.
The city walls were dozens of meters tall and were all made of black stones. It looked quite grand!
