Chapter 184 Saint Stairs Stone Stage (1/2)
The appearance of the green wave had sent a good number of geniuses out of the Saint tower. This caused a s.h.i.+ver to run through everyone's hearts, making them no longer dare to relax. Ascending these stone steps was clearly going to be a lot more difficult than they had imagined.
Thus, the subsequent stair climbing grew increasingly difficult for the numerous geniuses.
The flood was endless, giant waves forming within it from time to time. Its power could blast apart mountains, which was why Zhou Yuan and the rest needed to concentrate all of their Genesis Qi into defending each time.
As such, their rate of Genesis Qi consumption rapidly multiplied.
By this time, even the expressions of the apex level geniuses had become rather ugly. They had already realised that their Genesis Qi would eventually be completely used up if this continued.
They raised their heads and gazed upon the stone steps, still no end in sight, as they bitterly cried out in their hearts. ”When will these steps end?”
…
Outside the Saint Remains Domain. The six envoys watched the scenes within the mirror.
”At this rate, all of them will reach their limits in three inscence sticks of time.” The six envoys were Divine Dwelling experts, their sharp end experienced eyes naturally able to accurately approximate everyone's limits with a single glance.
”It's truly hard to climb these stairs.” With regards to the pouring green flood, even the six envoys inwardly shook their heads. They knew that if they suppressed their strength to the same level as Wu Huang and the rest, they may not be able to last this long.
From this, one could see just how difficult it was to obtain the greatest blessing.
”Next, we'll see who will be able to endure till the end…”
…
Time continued to flow, and two incense sticks of time quickly pa.s.sed.
By this time, the original three dozen or so had already been cut substantially. Those in the rear were constantly washed away by the flood and sent out of the Saint tower, leaving only a handful behind.
In fact, even the first group of apex level geniuses were no longer as calm as they had been in the beginning, their bodies no longer as stable.
AAHHH!
A miserable shriek suddenly sounded from behind. Xiao Tianxuan and Gu Ling were no longer able to hold on, both blown off their feet by a green wave.
Amidst their unresigned cries, the two were beaten black and blue before ultimately being flung out of the tower.
At this point, besides the first group of apex level geniuses, every other genius that had entered the tower had been wiped out.
This cruel scene caused the countless geniuses inside the Saint Remains Domain to s.h.i.+ver inside and feel a little fortunate that they had not qualified to enter the tower. The end result for those like them would likely not be pretty.
On the stone steps...
The apex level geniuses remaining were still gritting their teeth as they persisted. However, things were not looking optimistic, the surging Genesis Qi around them no longer as resplendent and robust as in the beginning.
Luluo could not help but curse with a slightly pale little face, ”Where the heck is the end to these blasted stairs!”
On her shoulder, Little Frost was also looking a little listless, a sign that it was overworked.
Though the others remained silent, they were clearly also cursing at the absurdness of these steps in their hearts.
”Eh?”
While everyone was inwardly cursing however, their eyes suddenly widened slightly as they lifted their heads and looked up. Some distance to their front, a wide stone platform floated next to the stairs.
”What is that? Could we have reached the end?” Everyone was uncertain.
They carried their bewilderment as they gradually approached the stone platform floating next to the steps. Their gazes swept over, only to find a stone tablet at the center of the platform on which several ancient glowing words were carved.
”It seems to be a Genesis technique?” A rough look was all that was needed for them to vaguely identify it.
”There are words at the top of the tablet!”
