Chapter 63: Challenge or a Stroll? Are These Guys Still Human?

“Be careful, there’s something strange about the steps.”

Seeing the disciples at the front getting deflated, someone cried out in surprise.

That was obvious. If this stone step wasn’t strange, wouldn’t everyone be able to rush up the mountain gate in time?

In the blink of an eye, dozens of disciples fell down, while those old disciples who had the experience of challenging the stone steps lowered their center of gravity and rushed towards the stone steps with their bodies hunched. Once they got up the stone steps, their speed plummeted.

At this moment, the difference in cultivation level was revealed.

A young man in white with a longsword on his back was not affected by the force of the stone steps. He stepped on the wind and walked towards the mountain gate with ease.

The mountain breeze blew, and his clothes fluttered in the wind. The young man’s behavior was calm, as if he was not challenging the mountain gate but strolling in the garden.

“It’s the Sword Control Peak’s sect master’s personal disciple, Qin Yu.”

Some people recognized the identity of the white-clothed young man. All the participating disciples had to participate in this stage, and the genius disciples of the Heavenly Sword Mountain were no exception.

However, to them, this stage was just a formality. The spell cast on the bluestone steps was nothing to them.

“The gap is too big!”

Some people couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts. Originally, the sects and distinguished families they were in were all outstanding. They grew up with the aura of geniuses. However, when compared to Qin Yu, they couldn’t be compared at all.

This caused them to feel a huge blow. At this moment, another two figures rushed onto the stage. Although they didn’t have the calmness of the white-robed young man, their speed was three times faster.

“Qin Yu, I didn’t expect you to be so fast!” The young man in purple shouted as he looked at the young man in white in front of him.

He held a folding fan in his hand. He was handsome and appeared as sophisticated as jade.

Beside him was a young man about 17 or 18 years old. He was dressed in green and he also carried a long sword on his back. He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His expression was cold and his aura was extraordinary.

This person was Guo Feibai, the fourth generation disciple of the Sword Hut, an outside sect.

The handsome man who was one step ahead of him with a folding fan in his hand was Nangong Zifeng, the eldest son of the peak master of Molten Spirit Peak.

Nangong Zifeng was also surprised at this moment. He did not expect that someone would be able to follow in his footsteps. Even if the beginning of the stairs was relatively easy and not as difficult as the later parts, it was still not something that an outer sect disciple could easily ascend.

Guo Feibai, who was carrying a longsword on his back, naturally noticed Nangong Zifeng’s surprise. However, he only focused on the stairs in front of him, and everything else was gone in the blink of an eye.

Nangong Zifeng’s speed became faster and faster. In just a few breaths of time, he had distanced away from Guo Feibai. After dozens of seconds, he had already reached the middle of the bluestone stairs. After resting for a few breaths, he continued to rush up the mountain gate.

Guo Feibai’s speed had obviously decreased a lot, but compared to the other disciples, his speed was already very fast. He was even advancing at the same speed as the other disciples of the Heavenly Sword Mountain. This surprised many disciples of the Heavenly Sword Mountain.

After Nangong Zifeng and Guo Feibai, there were also some powerful young disciples who stood out.

As for the weaker cultivators, they could only barely maintain their positions and move step by step. With such speed, let alone reaching the mountain gate in the time, they might not even be able to reach by sunset.

Among Song Xiuwen’s group, Victor and Song Qianqian were the first to rush up the bluestone steps. When they stepped onto the top of the steps, Victor immediately felt his body sink and his speed decreased.

“The personal disciple of the Heavenly Sword Mountain, Qin Yu?”

Indeed, he had some real ability. With such a strong gravitational force, even a spirit gathering realm cultivator would be greatly affected. Yet, he was able to do it so easily. Moreover, the explosive power of the purple-clothed young man was not to be underestimated…

With this thought in mind, Victor readjusted the flow of spiritual energy in his body and circulated the Tree Building technique with all his strength. At the same time, he activated the max-level Wind technique.

Following that, a light breeze lifted his body up. Victor’s body became as light as a feather as he floated towards the top of the mountain with ease.

The Wind technique was not a martial arts technique specialized in speed. Hence, Victor’s speed was not fast.

No matter how much pressure he was under, under the continuous supply of energy from the Tree Building technique, Victor’s movements were extremely calm, as if he was moving on a cloud.

Although the gravity of the bluestone steps was terrifying, under the support of the max-level Wind technique and Tree Building technique, it was completely ineffective.

On the contrary, Song Qianqian wasn’t so calm. It was obvious that she was using her willpower to resist the gravity of the bluestone steps, and her speed was only a few steps slower than Victor’s.

Looking at Victor’s leisurely walk, Song Qianqian’s eyes were filled with shock. The youngest elder was actually so relaxed, and it did not seem like he had used up any spiritual power.

They were both using the Wind technique, but she had already used 70% of her spiritual power. The more she came into contact with Victor, the more Song Qianqian found about Junior Elder Victor’s incomprehensiveness.

Gu Xu and Hua Feng looked at each other when they saw that Song Qianqian and Victor were almost out of sight. Their expressions were somewhat bitter. It was their fault that their talents were not as good as theirs. However, since they had already come, they could only brace themselves and attempt.

“Seeing how easy it is for Junior Elder Victor, it shouldn’t be that difficult. There should at least be some tricks to this…” Hua Feng comforted himself as he stepped onto the bluestone steps.

With this step, Hua Feng immediately felt as if his body was filled with lead. Fortunately, he was mentally prepared and did not lie down on the ground and embarrass himself in front of everyone.

“Such strong gravity!” Hua Feng hurriedly circulated the Tree Building technique and urged all the spiritual power in his body. Unfortunately, his Tree Building technique had only been cultivated to the beginner level. His speed was as slow as a turtle.

Gu Xu was even worse than Hua Feng. On the bluestone steps, he felt as if his legs were stuck in a swamp. Every step he took required a lot of effort.

Seeing the group of young disciples in front of him climbing up, his eyes were full of bitterness. No matter how good his usual mentality was, he could not hold it in at this moment.

Are these guys still human?

Victor soon arrived at the middle of the bluestone steps. At this time, a gloomy voice sounded in Victor’s ear, “Kid, you have some ability. I have underestimated you.”

Victor turned his head and saw Wang Cang of the Xuanming Sect following behind him. He also had a relaxed look on his face. It was obvious that he had not used his full strength.

“Same here. You’re not too bad yourself,” Victor said casually.

Upon hearing Victor’s casual tone, Wang Cang snorted coldly. “Let’s see how long you can be arrogant.”

The number of cultivators near the middle section of the bluestone steps had increased by quite a bit. Some cultivators were lingering here, moving forward slowly.

Although Victor noticed this peculiar situation, he did not slow down. He continued to rush towards the mountain gate at a constant speed.

“Charge with all your might. I’ll wait for you to suffer.” Wang Cang naturally noticed this peculiarity and cursed in his heart. He hoped that Victor would be like the other cultivators, wandering around the middle section.

There was a small trap at the middle section of the bluestone steps. If one was not careful, they would suffer a hidden loss.
