The Prodigies War-Chapter 1463: The Ordeal of Climbing the Steps

Engraved on the token was the character Yu in ancient bird seal script.

Lin Xun felt nothing special about it when he held it in his hand, but the golden cicada youth donned an unusual expression and smiled without saying anything else.

Farewell.

The old man in daoist robes turned around and stepped into the depths of the bright firelight produced by the Blameless Lamp.

The golden cicada young man couldnt help but remind Lin Xun in the end, He is an ancestor figure of the Yu Emperor Clan on the Ancient Nebula Road and is known for his aloof and cold personality. He was close friends with the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor. Little friend, if one day you set foot on the Ancient Nebula Road and run into trouble then you should bring out that token.

An Emperor Clan!

Moreover, it came from the Ancient Nebula Road!

Lin Xun narrowed his black eyes and put away the token.

Shua!

The celestial phoenix skeleton fluttered and transformed into a breathtakingly beautiful woman draped in rainbow clouds. Her hair was worn in a bun, and she looked holy and icily proud.

However, she bowed slightly and said to Lin Xun and the golden cicada youth, Thank you for your help. This is a true feather from my clan. Please accept it.

Shua!

An almost illusory and gorgeous feather flowing with magnificent light appeared in the womans palm, and she handed it to Lin Xun.

Lin Xun looked at the golden cicada youth, who responded with a smile, You helped them, and they want to repay you.

Only then did Lin Xun accept the priceless celestial phoenix feather. Thank you very much.

The woman walked away not long after that.

You can probably tell that the woman comes from the Celestial Phoenix Clan. She does not hold a particularly high position in her clan, but her cultivation and foundation are second to none. Its a pityif she hadnt been trapped here by the forbidden prohibition power back then, given her talent, she might have already reached the emperor stage. The golden cicada youth sighed.

After that, the broken sword-wielding giant skeleton stepped forward and transformed into a bearded man with a dignified and heroic demeanor. He came from the Giant Que Clan, and he gifted Lin Xun a seven-inch azure sword scabbard.

The withered and scorched tree transformed into a beautiful woman dressed in a coarse dress and thorn hairpin, radiating a quiet and elegant beauty. It turned out her real body was a Thousand Fire Tree, and she gave Lin Xun a fiery red leaf.

The fox skeleton transformed into an eight tailed fox with a gentle and alluring face. She came from the Nine Orifice Divine Fox Clan, and she presented Lin Xun with a string of sparkling sapphire bells.

The bone snake skeleton turned into a fierce-looking middle-aged man with a feminine and sinister aura. He came from the Winged Sky Serpent Clan, and he gave Lin Xun a snow-white fang as a gift.

The old turtle skeleton transformed into a short and honest-looking old man from the Great Void Dragon Turtle Clan, and he gave Lin Xun a white shell that was the size of a newborns palm.

They each thanked Lin Xun and the golden cicada youth one by one, and then walked into the bright light of the Blameless Lamp and vanished.

Throughout the process, the golden cicada youth stood next to Lin Xun, introducing each of the remarkable figures to him.

Only then did Lin Xun realize that the seven fierce creatures that had followed him along the way were no ordinary people!

For example, the elder from the Yu Emperor Clan was a true emperor stage existence!

The others were also powerful big shots from various impressive clans.

Years ago, in this land of primal chaos origin, they protected the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor which led them to be affected and suppressed by the forbidden prohibition power. As a result, their cultivation was destroyed, and they were left in a state where they resembled neither human nor ghost.

The Blameless Lamp relieved them from the suppression of the forbidden power and freed them from the abyss of eternal misery.

To them, the Blameless Lamp was a beacon of light and hope that guided them back to where they came from. Otherwise, their bodies that had been destroyed by the forbidden power would have forever wandered the world like lost souls, unable to awaken their consciousness.

Take care of their gifts, they will definitely be of use to you in the future. As the golden cicada youth spoke, he returned the lamp to Lin Xun. Most importantly, take care of this lamp. This is the blood, sweat, and tears of an Emperor.

Lin Xun thought of the skeleton boatman on the Underworld River. Could that person...also be an Emperor?

He carefully put away the Blameless Lamp.

He had witnessed the wonders of the lamp and knew what sort of magical treasure it was.

Lets go. Lets go take a look. The golden cicada youth took the lead, making his way up the steps.

Lin Xun followed closely.

There were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps. The moment that Lin Xun stepped on it, he felt a wave of bizarre oscillatory power that made him vibrate.

He quietly circulated his physical cultivation and only then was he able to withstand the strange oscillatory force.

He looked ahead and saw the golden cicada youth walking leisurely like he was on flat land.

He withdrew his gaze and continued to follow him. freew ebnove l.com

But the higher the steps, the stronger the oscillatory power.

In the beginning, it was just like a ripple of vibration, which rocked him a little, but other than that it had no significant effect on him.

But soon, this ripple gradually grew into surging waves, and the impact and the oscillatory force began to grow stronger and stronger.

Later, the waves turned turbulent, as if a stream had turned into a mighty river, crashing on the shore and gushing fiercely and rapidly.

But

It still could not stop Lin Xun. In the process of climbing the steps, he just constantly activated his physical refinement cultivation, continuously grew stronger, and repeatedly overcame the oscillatory power.

However, when he stepped on the one thousandth stone step, his expression turned serious. That step felt as if he was pushing his way through a raging torrent, and the oscillatory power felt like an army charging at him.

The golden cicada youth continued ahead and never looked back once, seemingly unaware of Lin Xuns situation. His movements were relaxed and calm, and his steps were very steady from beginning to end.

Lin Xun inhaled deeply and raised his physical power to around fifty percent; only then was he able to keep up with the golden cicada youth.

When he reached the two thousandth step, his qi and blood were roaring within him, and he was bathed in the glow of the Nine Pure Dao Light.

He had to activate his physical power to its peak state to neutralize the oscillatory force spreading out from the stone steps.

This astonished Lin Xun a little.

It should be noted that he now possessed a physical cultivation of the perfect eighth longevity tribulation stage, and he was also a supreme king.

But he already had to draw upon all his strength when he had only reached the two thousandth stone step. There were still eight thousand steps ahead of him...

That number would make any cultivator despair.

Lin Xuns expression turned grave.

Meanwhile, the golden cicada youth in hemp garments was leisurely walking barefooted in front of him, and had no intention of stopping and waiting for him.

Hu

Lin Xun drew a deep breath, discarding all the distracting thoughts in his mind, and soldiered on.

When he climbed the next set of steps, he had to activate Yazis Rage.

Later, when Yazis Rage was not enough to support him, he turned to the Sacred Combat Art.

When he reached the three thousandth stone step, he was already activating the Extreme Absolute art with all his strength. It was as if he was in a battle fighting with his all. Dao sounds boomed from all over his body, and he was dazzlingly bright.

It was also then that he felt the strain.

He was more exhausted than facing off against a False Saint.

But he was just climbing steps!

Do you need to take a rest? asked the golden cicada youth in a gentle voice, his back still facing Lin Xun.

No need. Lin Xun shook his head.

The golden cicada youth did not force him and continued onwards.

Lin Xun gritted his teeth and followed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

But the problematic oscillatory power came roaring at him like a landslide and tsunami. It was impossible to dodge or evade.

If he wanted to move forward, he had to endure them.

When he reached the three thousand three hundredth step, he was panting rapidly, and his forehead was beaded with sweat. Every inch of his muscles was quivering.

But he still refused to stop and rest!

The obstacles along the way instead ignited a fierce determination in his heart.

Most importantly, the golden cicada youth had never paused once, and Lin Xun did not want to trail behind him.

Even though he knew that his cultivation level could not compare to his, he believed that his future achievements on the cultivation path would not be inferior to him.

However, Lin Xun was unaware that, as early as when he had passed the three thousandth step, the golden cicada youths eyes flashed with a strange glint.

It seemed that he did not expect Lin Xun to make it that far.

Then when Lin Xun stepped onto the three thousand three hundredth step, the golden cicada youths eyes glowed.

He knew very well that it was incredible for someone on the longevity path to be able to reach this far on the dao steps set up by an emperor stage cultivator.

Even the most supreme cultivators would rarely reach as high as Lin Xun did.

The golden cicada youth smiled silently and continued forward, as if curious to see how long Lin Xun could hold on. fr eewebn ovel.com

When Lin Xun reached the three thousand five hundredth step, he felt as if he was carrying a mountain on his back. His handsome face was strained and drained of color.

When he stepped on the three thousand six hundredth step, his face became distorted and veins were popping out on his forehead.

After he passed the three thousand seven hundredth step, he tottered with every step he took, as if he was about to collapse at any moment.

When he stepped onto the three thousand nine hundred step, the golden cicada youth stopped for the first time. Would you like to take a break? You are on the verge of exhaustion. If you continue like this, you will only injure yourself and damage your cultivation. His voice was incredibly serious.

After a thought, he added, This is not a competition. Being able to reach this far is already an incredible feat. Over the years, I have never seen any supreme figure at your cultivation level perform as great as you.

At the end of the sentence, he turned his head to look at Lin Xun. Now, its good to know when to stop.

But Lin Xun was silent for a moment and then he shook his head. No need.

His response took the golden cicada youth aback. You advanced the steps with just your physical cultivation because you wanted to hone your physical cultivation, isnt that right? But right now, thats enough, if you hone it any further, it will be too much.

Lin Xun smiled, took a sudden step forward, climbing to the next stone step.

Then, the aura around him steadily grew brighter and stronger like a dried-up river bed welcoming a torrential downpour.

The golden cicada youth smiled, eyes sparkling. I understand.
