Chapter 843: Challenge
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Qiu Luocheng then stood up and walked toward Ye Chen.
He turned his head and glanced at Ye Chen with disdain.
“Trashy brat, do you dare to challenge me?”
“Weren’t you arrogant enough to say that Mr. Jingshui wasn’t qualified to be your master? I want to see if you have the qualifications to spout such nonsense!”
Ye Chen glanced at Qiu Luocheng coldly, but did not say anything.
When Qju Luocheng saw that Ye Chen did not react, he said, “Trashy brat, did you hear what I said? Are you willing to accept the challenge?”
“Why should I accept your challenge? Who do you think you are?” Ye Chen retorted.
Ye Chen did not play by the rules at all, which made Qiu Luocheong feel a little helpless. However, he still said, “Now that you’ve been expelled by Mr. Jingshui, the Heavenly Stairway is your only way to reach the Dragon Cleansing Pool. If you’re a man, why don’t you challenge me and see who can go further! If I win, you will hand over the spiritual beast and also apologize to Mr. Jingshui.”
“If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me! If you are a man, then challenge me!”
Provoking him was probably the most effective method. This kid would definitely take the bait.
Ji Siqing knew what Qiu Luocheng was trying to do and quickly said, “Ye Chen, you don’t have to challenge him.”
The Heavenly Stairway also depended on talent. Ye Chen might have had a fortuitous encounter, but in terms of talent and physique, he was definitely not Qiu Luocheng’s match.
After all, many years ago, Qiu Luocheng was one of the top geniuses in the Kunlun Mountains, and he had a rare spiritual root.
Countless sects fought over him.
Duan Huai An also tried to persuade him.
“Disciple, there’s no need to accept this challenge. Let’s return to Qingxuan Peak.”
Ye Chen glanced at the Heavenly Stairway and his eyes flashed with determination. Then,unexpectedly, he said to Qiu Luocheng “Alright, I accept, but I have a request. If you lose, kneel in front of me and destroy your own dantian.”
Qiu Luocheng was stunned, but he gritted his teeth and agreed, “Fine! This Heavenly Stairway is not a formation, so that creature in your arms can’t help you!”
There was no way he would lose!
Whether it was talent, spiritual roots, or cultivation level, he far surpa.s.sed Ye Chen.
The only advantage that Ye Chen had was that creature in his arms, which would not be able to help him on the Heavenly Stairway.
Ye Chen was finished!
“Alright, you have a deal then.” Ye Chen nodded.
Qiu Luocheng was overjoyed. He took a step forward and his aura started to rise at a rapid rate. This attracted the attention of countless people, which made him feel even more pompous.
It was as if he was the protagonist here.
He stepped forward.
The second step.
The tenth step.
Qiu Luocheng had already reached the tenth step amidst the crowd’s cheers and exclamations.
He did not stop, and soon, he arrived at the twentieth step!
“Heavens, Qiu Luocheng actually reached the 20th step!”
“As expected of a top-notch genius!”
“If only I could have half of his cultivation talent!”
The crowd’s praise for Qiu Luocheng came wave after wave. After all, no one had ever reached the twentieth step.
However, was the 20th step Qiu Luocheng’s limit? “Hmph, what’s the big deal about the 20th step?”
Qiu Luocheng put his hands behind his back and continued to move forward like a strong warrior.
However, soon, his relaxed expression disappeared, and was replaced by seriousness.
The endless pressure made him feel a little breathless.
“Absolute Martial Heart Technique!”
Qiu Luocheng’s aura continued to rise, and with every step he took, even the Heavenly Stairway shook a little!
His gaze was determined, and it seemed as if he was in control of the situation. “Oh my G.o.d! Qiu Luocheng is too powerful! He actually reached the 25th step!” The crowd was shocked.
Even Ji Siqing thought highly of Qiu Luocheng.
It had to be said that Qiu Luocheng’s talent could be ranked in the top ten among the people she knew.
If he were to obtain further opportunities, he would be an existence that could dominate the Kunlun Mountains in the future.
“However, he’s almost at his limit. If he continues, it will be very dangerous.” Although Qiu Luocheng felt uncomfortable, he forgot everything when he heard the praise.
“I want to reach the 50th step!”
He took a few steps forward. However, when he reached the 28th step, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale.
He was seriously injured, and knew for a fact that he could no longer proceed forward.
“The 28th step of the Heavenly Stairway!”
“This achievement is already very terrifying! He can be considered to have created this year’s record!”
“I’m afraid no one will be able to reach the 30th step today. After all, Qiu Luocheng has already done his best!”
Although Qiu Luocheng was injured, no one blamed him. After all, Qiu Luocheng’s results were far ahead of the second best performer’s.
He was a well-deserved genius, and his talent had been recognized by the Heavenly Stairway!
“Qiu Luocheng isn’t bad among the younger generation. Although he hasn’t reached the 50th step, he’s already far surpa.s.sed most geniuses!”
Mr. Jingshui stroked his beard and smiled. He was very satisfied with Qiu Luocheng’s performance.
Qiu Luocheng naturally noticed Mister Jingshui’s smile. He was a little excited. Standing on the twenty-eighth step, he suddenly extended his hand and pointed at Ye Chen.
“Trashy brat, it’syour turn now!”
“Of course, you can choose to give up. I won’t blame you!”
As soon as he said that, countless gazes turned to the young man at the foot of
the mountain. As they looked at him, their emotions were mixed.
After all, before Mr. Jingshui came, Ye Chen had suppressed everyone in the compet.i.tion, including the judges!
However, since Ye Chen was said to have mortal roots, how far could he go on the Heavenly Stairway?
Ye Chen snorted coldly. Naturally, he was not afraid.
He placed Little Gold on his shoulder and took his first step. As he did, he felt a violent wave of energy attack his body and consciousness.
There was even a moment when he felt that he was extremely small and insignificant, like a speck of dust.
Ye Chen took a few more steps and arrived at the tenth step.
The tenth step was the first milestone. At this moment, it was as if huge mountains were pressing down on his shoulders.
His face was pale, but other than that, it did not affect him much.
“Continue!”
Ye Chen bellowed and activated the Nine Heaven Arcane Sun technique. The true qi in his dantian gathered around his body, forming a golden barrier.
Ye Chen took another few steps forward. He wanted to show Qiu Luocheng who the real piece of trash was!!
This test relied on talent and spiritual roots?
He had mortal roots?
Ridiculous!
The ancient mighty experts of the Reincarnation Graveyard had said that the reason why his spiritual root was judged as mortal was because all of the testing instruments in Huaxia and the Kunlun Mountains did not have the ability to even detect it!
With the support of the barrier, Ye Chen had already reached the fifteenth step! However, just as Ye Chen was about to reach the sixteenth step, his true qi barrier shattered.
He could no longer rely on his true qi to advance further!
