Chapter 477: Chapter 291: Consecutive Challenges, Competing for First Place_2

With the activation of his abilities, the small wounds left by the Fifth Order Wind Blades on his body nearly healed the next moment.

This time, Ye Feng took almost 8 minutes to reach the platform at 40,000 meters. frёewebnoѵēl.com

And at this point, he had essentially surpassed the Seventh Order Strongmen of the forbidden zones.

Only those visitors from beyond the heavens were still able to match his speed.

As for the Eighth Order Strongmen of the major forbidden zones, they had already traveled half the distance to the 50,000-meter platform.

Ye Feng thought it over and decided not to stand out too much, planning to rest and recuperate on the 40,000-meter platform first.

By then, those visitors from beyond the heavens had already started to rest, and upon seeing this, Ye Feng also casually found a corner to take a break.

He was even contemplating whether to delve into understanding the Life Rule again or not.

Because he had caught a glimpse of inspiration and perhaps another deep contemplation would allow him to grasp the introductory understanding of his Life Rule.

Upon seeing that Ye Feng had also begun to rest, whether it was the strongmen from the forbidden zones or those visitors from beyond the heavens, they all inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

They couldn’t help it, as they were also unclear about what the final assessment entailed.

Would their performance in climbing the mountain be taken into account for the final assessment?

This was also why when Ye Feng began to exert himself in the climb, people didn’t dare to stop.

...

However, as Ye Feng paused, Gu Ao Duo in the Different Space couldn’t help but curl his lips, "What a bore! Wasn’t there a promising start just now? Just as the atmosphere was building up, why stop again?"

It was completely in the attitude of a spectator who relishes a good show and craves for more drama, after all it either slept or healed its wounds most of the time, rarely encountering anything amusing.

At that moment, its eyes began to whirl, suddenly lighting up with excitement, "Since you’ve seen the good stuff on the stone tablet, you should all understand the preciousness of points by now! Let me give you a little benefit then."

It immediately flew to the Formation control and quickly inputted a command.

Just as Ye Feng was about to rest, suddenly he heard a sound by his ear.

"Assessment task updated, the first one to reach the summit platform will be rewarded with 1000 points, the second with 900 points, the third with 800 points, and so on. Only the top ten will receive rewards."

Hearing this, Ye Feng’s eyes snapped open, and his gaze turned towards the distant stone tablet.

The voice had come from the stone tablet.

Moreover, this voice had spread throughout Rule Mountain, transmitted by a special energy fluctuation.

So at this moment, whether it was the visitors from beyond the heavens who were resting or the Seventh Order Strongmen who had steadily arrived at the 40,000-meter platform, all of them could no longer afford to rest and immediately headed for the stairs leading upwards.

It couldn’t be helped; the points were simply too tempting.

Reaching the summit was only worth 550 points, but the reward for the first place was a full 1000 points. Those who won the reward would undoubtedly create a not insignificant gap with the others.

To know, there were only five Divine Artifacts in the exchange list, which certainly wouldn’t be enough for everyone. Whoever could save up 10,000 points first would be able to exchange for one.

And Ye Feng, who had originally intended to conserve his strength and not stand out too much, now understood that he couldn’t keep a low profile any longer.

"These 1000 points are mine," Ye Feng murmured to himself.

He naturally wouldn’t miss out on a Divine Artifact.

And because he needed to comprehend the Life Rule, he would need even more points than others.

After all, such a good opportunity was incredibly rare, and if he left this place, Ye Feng wasn’t certain how long it would take him to grasp it on his own.

After all, the system couldn’t help with such comprehension, at least not for now.

After making a decision, Ye Feng immediately chose an unoccupied stairway and began rushing up.

Soon, wave after wave of Wind Blades attacked him.

With hundreds of Wind Blade attacks looming, Ye Feng felt the danger before they even drew close.

Whoosh!

A Wind Blade struck a branch of the canopy he was on, severing the whole limb cleanly off.

Other wind blades that struck his body could also create wounds nearly 10 centimeters deep.

"The power of these wind blades could completely match the attack from a Sixth Order Wind Superpowered Being," he couldn’t help but comment.

"But now, not even half the distance has been covered, and the difficulty seems a bit too high! A regular Sixth Order Prowess wouldn’t possibly be able to reach the summit!" Ye Feng exclaimed.

Although others wouldn’t endure attacks from hundreds of wind blades like he did, such attacks of the Sixth Order hierarchy were still extremely dangerous, even if it was just a dozen or so at a time.

This was completely equivalent to being besieged by a dozen powerhouses of the same realm.

Even considering the rate at which the difficulty increased, Ye Feng wasn’t sure if his Contracted Animals would have a chance to reach the summit.

Of course, these thoughts merely circulated in Ye Feng’s mind briefly before he dismissed them.

He moved quickly on the roots, rushing towards the 50,000-meter platform.

As for the wounds on his body, they didn’t really matter much to his massive form.

Of course, he didn’t just passively endure either; under his precise control, all the leaves curled up on their own, and the branches began to gather together. When they unified, the defensive power naturally increased.

Although he couldn’t completely fend off the attack from the wind blades, he could mitigate a good portion of the damage. Combined with Life Healing Ability, the impact on Ye Feng was now negligible.

Under these circumstances, Ye Feng only took 5 minutes to reach the 50,000-meter platform this time.

At this moment, the nine Eighth Order Strongmen at the forefront had already crossed the 50,000-meter platform and had surged up a distance further.

Ye Feng estimated their height to be around 54,000 meters.

Clearly, these Eighth Order Strongmen were also feeling a significant threat, pushing themselves hard as they propelled upward.

However, Ye Feng could see that they were under considerable pressure. Apart from Dragon Strongmen and other physically robust Eighth Order Strongmen, the rest couldn’t resist only with their bodies.

Some had flames rising around them while others covered themselves with a layer of Ice Armor, and some even drew weapons outright, displaying the bright glint of spears or swords to deflect the attacks.

These Eighth Order Strongmen were not only wary of Ye Feng, but they were also competing against each other.

The distance between the fastest and the slowest was basically no more than 1,000 meters.

At their speed, such a distance could nearly be crossed in an instant burst.

Of course, the difficulty of the Rule Mountain assessment had surpassed their expectations, and therefore no one dared to exert too much force. Consuming too much now in case they couldn’t get higher later would be foolish.

After all, this was not the final test, so none of them would want to explode with the power of an Eighth Order at this stage.

Ye Feng merely glanced at the situation above for a moment, then immediately chose an unoccupied staircase and continued to rush upwards.

As soon as he stepped onto the staircase, he immediately sensed wind blades forming around him, sweeping towards him.

Seeing this, Ye Feng couldn’t help but mutter, "Could these be comparable to Seventh Order Wind Blades coming my way?"

Of course, the assessment wasn’t that cruel; otherwise, creatures of the Sixth Order realm wouldn’t stand a chance of reaching the top.

Pu pu pu!

Soon, the wind blades were slicing against Ye Feng, allowing him to immediately sense their strength.

These wind blades were far from Seventh Order, but they were much more terrifying than the previous ones.

If the previous wind blades were at the early stage of the Sixth Order, now they were at least at the Sixth Order Peak, if not stronger.

Because it wasn’t just Wild Wind forming these wind blades, but "Gangfeng," a much fiercer type of wind.

And due to this change, their power had become terrifying, with virtually every wind blade being able to match the attacks of Big Yellow Dog.

Even a Mutated Elephant placed here would likely sustain serious injuries after suffering a dozen or more wind blade hits.

So, after encountering attacks from over a hundred wind blades, a large number of Ye Feng’s leaves were falling, and many branches were chopped off as well.

Ye Feng glanced up once more, "No wonder these Eighth Order Strongmen all had to resort to various methods for defense."

He slowly exhaled. Though he lacked fancy tricks, he had roots!

Under Ye Feng’s control, instantly, 500 roots rose up and intertwined into a dense cage, enveloping his main body within it.

The remaining 100 roots were used for walking.
