Chapter 902: One Step to Heaven Test!
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
In the Innumerable-Immortal Sea, the places where most of the immortal cultivators gathered were not as crowded as the big cities in the mortal world, in which the common residential areas were full of noises while carriages thronged in the rich communities...
However, the block outside the shop was the marketplace where immortal cultivators from different places traded with the eight major ancient immortal families. After years of development, it had become busy and prosperous.
Turning to the left from the street outside the shop, one would reach the main street of the whole immortal market.
The streets that could accommodate two horse-drawn carriages side by side weren’t very wide, but since no riding was allowed on the streets except for the main street, the pedestrians had enough space to walk around.
Walking on the street outside the shop, passersbys could easily hear the sounds blasting from the machine.
“What’s this...?”
“Aren’t they the Cloud Dream Three Eccentrics?!”
“That young master looks like...!?”
At the beginning, there were only a few people standing at the door. About eight minutes later, more than ten people gathered at the door.
“What are they doing?” A young man dressed in a black leather robe pushed through the crowd and looked in curiously.
“No idea...” A brawny guy beside him craned his neck to look inside. “I listened to them for a while. It seems like someone is singing in that spiritual artifact, and then the two people began to jump on it.”
“Jump on it?!” The young man dressed in the black leather robe studied them and then said gravely, “If I’m right, they are practicing some kind of movement technique; it’s an immortal-grade movement technique at least on the Xuan-level!”
“Movement technique?!” People exclaimed behind them.
“Of course.” The young man dressed in the black leather robe pointed at the two people on the dance machines and said, “Look at the white-robed young master. When he uses the movement technique perfectly, his movements are unpredictable, right?”
“That’s true...” the brawny guy exclaimed.
“Pay attention to the rhythm that they followed when moving with each step; isn’t this strange, elegant, and rhythmic movement very enjoyable to watch?”
“Right! Right! Right! I have the same feeling!” A young man who was wearing warrior’s clothes with an iron chain and silver loops hanging on his shirt looked very eye-catching in the crowd. “But what’s so special about it?”
“If my guess is right, this is the legendary Dao Rhythm.” The young man dressed in the black leather robe explained, “Just like the miracles of creation such as the Heaven, Earth, mountains, and rivers, the super-powerful spiritual spells are in harmony with the Great Dao when they correspond with the mystery of creation. Look, each step they take is as mysterious as the transformation of stars. If you don’t watch carefully, you’ll feel like they turned into several figures.”
“Indeed... you’re right!” The young man wearing warrior clothes clapped his hands and said appreciatively.
“Can you explain the song which keeps saying ‘Aiyaiyai’?” The man beside him asked.
“Um...” At this moment, the young man dressed in the black leather robe also looked puzzled. “It’s a puzzle to me, Immortal Qiu, as well.”
He thought for a long while and said, “According to my analysis, this is probably a special pithy formula for the movement technique?”
“Well said!” At this moment, Yao Ji got off the dance machine and said with bright glints in his eyes, “I’ve been thinking about what these words mean. Your conversation inspired me.”
“Are they really pithy formulas?” the others said in surprise, “But... they don’t sound like pithy formulas at all!”
“How can you say that!?” Yao Ji had danced for a long time on the dance machine by now. “Watch!”
Then, he chanted lightly, “Aiyaiyai! Aiyaiyai!”
His feet moved with the rhythm as he jumped and shifted around in patterns as his mind recalled the arrows on the screen as a reflex.
Next, the viewers felt dizzy as they watched Yao Ji turn into three shadows in front of them!
Under their astonished gazes, Yao Ji explained, “To tell you the truth, when I chanted the pithy formula, my mind summoned these steps subconsciously. They are undoubtedly pithy formulas!”
“Does it mean that this movement technique is at least on the Xuan-level ?!” The tall and brawny guy said, “How long have you been in the shop? You’ve achieved such effects in a short time?!”
At this moment, an amiable old man walked up and said with a smile, “Would you guys like to try it? This young master used our shop’s newest product, the Learning Machine.”
“These learning machines can instruct the users to learn an exquisite movement technique. Today is the shop’s grand opening, and we are offering five immortal tokens for one immortal crystal. With one immortal token, you can have one session with this spiritual artifact and learn the profound and complex movement technique.”
“Didn’t you say that we can also unlock new content when certain conditions are met?” At this moment, Yao Ji asked his question.
“Of course.” Gu Tingyun pointed at the screen and explained, “When the arrows fall, if your steps barely match the timing, rhythm, and beats, the pads will flash with silver lights. If your steps match them perfectly, the pad will flash with purple lights!”
“When a set of movement technique is completed, you’ll enter the ranking stage.” At this moment, a list of scores showed on the screen. “This is the rank and the basic conditions for advancing.”
“Of course, we have more than one basic movement technique. You can change to any movement technique you like and even compete with others!”
“Can... we do all these things?!” Yao Ji’s eyes turned sharp as he stared at the tall and thin man beside him and said, “You! We broke even just now; let’s have a competition on the spiritual artifacts!”
“Good! I didn’t do my best yet.” The tall and thin man of the Cloud Dream Three Eccentrics said, “The clothes that you wear show that you come from a big family, but I didn’t lose to you!”
“Come on-!”
Music continued to float out of the shop and then wild laughter erupted, “Haha! My movement technique is better than yours! Anyone else wants to compete with me!?”
“I’ll do it!” The young man wearing warrior clothes yelled and leaped onto a dance machine.
When the music sounded, the two people moved without stopping as if they had two electrical motors on their feet.
The competitions continued until the sky turned dark.
“That’s it! That’s it!” Heavy panting sounds came from the shop.
Yao Ji stood alone on the Nine Palace Platform proudly as lights of all colors, red, orange, yellow, green, indigo, blue, and purple flashed over his head; the others all looked at him in horror.
“He actually...”
“He unlocked the new movement technique so soon!?”
“My goodness! He’s amazing!”
But soon, an exclamation sounded, “No! Young Master, you have the One Step to Heaven Test today in the academy!”
“Didn’t I have a test a couple of days ago?!” Yao Ji said angrily, “How come I have another test today?!”
“Don’t ask! Hurry up! This is the One Step to Heaven Test held by the elder in person. Hurry, or you’ll be late!”
