“The third trial is starting now?”
Su Yi was a little surprised when he heard Dao voice’s notification. It seemed that this was not what he had expected.
He looked at the stairway to the sky that was emitting golden light. He did not know the number of steps at a glance. After a rough calculation, there were actually tens of thousands of steps.
The nine dragons’ illusory shadows surrounded the stairway to Heaven, and the illusory golden light was gradually solidifying.
At the end of the stairway to Heaven was a grand hall. Even though there were tens of thousands of steps apart, one could still feel the aura emanating from the hall.
Beside Su Yi, Li Mengxi stared blankly at the stairway to Heaven in front of her as she muttered, “this, is this the stairway to Heaven…”
Her tone was very soft. The shock in her eyes could not be dispelled. This method of creating the stairway to heaven was comparable to that of an immortal.
In addition to the nine dragons’ illusory image, how similar was it to the legendary stairway to Heaven?
Nie Ling also stood behind Su Yi. She stared at the majestic stairway without saying a word. This grand scene had truly shocked her.
At this moment, in front of them, golden patterns began to gather in the air, before they transformed into golden characters.
‘The stairway to Heaven, a thousand steps and a dragon’s might. Only those who pass through 10,000 steps are qualified to obtain the items of the Cloud Sky Hall.’
At the same time, other than these golden characters, Dao voice also rang out in their minds.
[Hint: the trial progress of the stairway to Heaven, 0%/100%]
It seemed like they had to pass this stairway.
Just as the Dao voice faded, before Su Yi and the others could make a move, the other Heaven’s Favorites had already made their move and started to step onto the stairway to Heaven.
They had to jump out quickly, turning into afterimages on the platform. Their speed was extremely fast.
And the person in the lead was Ling Jun. at this moment, he no longer concealed his strength. He had used all of his strength as the leader of the Heaven’s Favorites.
From the distance between him and the afterimages, one could tell that his strength was extraordinary.
His gaze was cold, and his eyes were fixated on the stairway to Heaven. He quickly left the others behind.
In a short moment, Ling Jun actually stepped onto the first step of the stairway to heaven.
Immediately, his body slowed down, and his speed slowed down as well. His handsome brows were slightly raised.
It was as though he was being blocked by some kind of force. However, his speed did not slow down much. His body continued to swiftly pass through the stairway.
Within a short period of time, Ling Jun had actually reached the height of a hundred steps.
“Let’s go as well,” Su Yi looked at the two ladies and spoke faintly.
The two ladies also responded. The true essence on the bodies of the three of them shook slightly. They also transformed into a couple of blurry black figures that swiftly passed through this platform.
Soon, they arrived at the bottom of the stairway to heaven. When they raised their heads, they found that Ling Jun had already reached more than five hundred steps, while the other Heaven’s Favorites were around three hundred steps up.
Immediately, he did not hesitate and stepped onto the stairway to heaven.
Soon, he felt an inexplicable power around his body. It was like a stream of water, obstructing his ascend.
However, this did not affect him in the slightest. He bent his feet slightly, and then his true essence erupted. His figure was like an afterimage as he climbed up the stairway to Heaven.
In the blink of an eye, he had already reached the height of a hundred steps, instantly surpassing Lan Xiaotian.
Behind him, the two women also felt the pressure within. They nodded at each other and began to follow.
The resistance here was like flowing water, but it could not do anything to them.
Those who could come here were all geniuses among geniuses. If they were really defeated by a thousand steps, that would be truly laughable.
The two girls’ speed was not slow either. They followed closely behind Su Yi. Nie Ling was keeping up well. After all, she had followed Su Yi all the way from Shangyang City. It could be said that she had been on the immortal path ever since. She had grown up along with Su Yi.
On the other hand, Li Mengxi was still a little harsh towards Su Yi because of Zhao Xuening.
Now, it seemed that she had unknowingly made Su Yi her pillar of support. She still had the explosive speed to catch up to Su Yi. However, she did not surpass Su Yi. Instead, she steadily followed behind him.
…
At this moment, on the stairway to Heaven, ten figures were rapidly shuttling back and forth. They seemed to be racing against time, but there was one exception.
She was always at the back. She was wearing a purple gauze robe, and her face was covered by a black veil. No one could see the expression on her face.
This person was Zi Xin from Purple Fan Pavilion. At this moment, her gaze was fixed on Su Yi. From time to time, there were flashes of inspiration. No one knew what she was thinking.
Ever since Su Yi said his name, the way this female cultivator looked at Su Yi had changed.
“Su Yi… I wonder if he is the one sister Xue mentioned,” Zi Xin muttered as she looked at Su Yi’s resolute figure.
She sighed slightly. The strength of the man in her eyes was completely different from the one sister Xue mentioned. She looked over and found that the description was basically the same. How was this possible.
…
After a while, the leader Ling Jun stepped onto the seventh thousand steps. Immediately, a heavy pressure pressed down on his body.
His head was covered in sweat.
With a wave of his hand, a high-grade vitality replenishing pill appeared in his hand, and he consumed it.
He ran through the steps in one breath. As he climbed, the pressure was gradually building, his true essence was almost exhausted. At this moment, he consumed the high-grade vitality replenishing pill.
He immediately felt a wave of relief. Facing the pressure on the stairwa, although it was a little uncomfortable, it was not as if he could not advance.
He turned around and took a glance behind him. When he discovered that the other Heaven’s Favorites were almost all at the sixth thousand steps, the corners of his mouth immediately curled up slightly. As expected, he, Ling Jun was still superior to others.
Suddenly, his face froze, because he found that one person was missing.
And that person was Su Yi, who had taken the first place on the dragon pillar trial.
Ling Jun frowned slightly and thought to himself, ‘could it be that it’s a problem of strength, and I was eliminated?’
Thinking of this, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes. After all, he was only at the third layer of the foundation establishment realm, so it was normal for him to not have enough true essence to resist the pressure of these high-level stairs.
However, he did not an afterimage brushing past him, while muttering, “brother, if you’re not climbing anymore, then please make way.”
Then, a gust of wind blew from behind that afterimage, blowing Ling Jun into a mess.
He was stunned on the spot. Looking at Su Yi who continued to climb, his eyes were lifeless, and his mouth slightly opened, not knowing whether it was shock or something else..
