Chapter 175 - 33 Heavenly Steps (2/2)

”Third-floor Heavenly Genesis Realm?!” The keener eyes immediately recognized the Xiantu Emperor profound ascension to the next floor. There were a few with eyes filled with discontent, others with praise and awe, and others with sheer fear shaking their bones.

”To think...he built his third floor. However, it's very recent and has yet to be fully solidified.” Pinaka voiced. Despite her background, a peak initial-stage Heavenly Genesis expert could be considered extraordinary even during the chaos era. If they have a profound backing, they could have their own minor realm.

Unlike now, in the rebirth era, where anyone who built their second-floor can own a minor realm.

”Mhm.” Yan Zaizen echoed her thoughts. Still, it was impressive.

As space shook, above the Xiantu Continent, a single slit in space appeared. It wasn't long before, with the help of their seniors, all participants shot into the slit. This was the start of the Xiantu Dao Trials!

Immediately, several large screens filled the Palace hall, revealing various angles within the spatial slit. From what Yan Zaizen could see, it was a sub-dimensional space, similar to the cultivation rooms in the Anima Syndicate.

Within large, golden temple with four sides, each side had 33 wide, deep, and tall stairs. The entire temple was the size of a grand mountain. Each participant landed near it in vast numbers - about four hundred thousand. All of them were elites of their forces and ready to make a name on the stage.

”The first test will be the 33 Heavenly Steps, I see.” Eke said with an appraising gaze. Yan Zaizen had heard of this from Tao. It was a template that released faint heavenly pressure. They one ascends each step, they'd have to overcome the pressure. However, to pass, they just needed to reach step 13.

A voice explained the rules to all participants. No talismans, armaments, or pre-set formations were allowed. If one reaches the 13th step, they pass. If they reach the 14th step, they will be awarded one low-grade essence crystal. This continues to multiply by ten for each step until the 30th.

By then, one could earn one quadrillion low-grade, or ten trillion mid-grade, or ten billion high-grade essence crystals. In truth, it may sound extraordinary, but a single drop of heavenly law liquid amounted to just that - ten billion high-grade essence crystals. A large reason had to do with the irrelevance of essence crystals for Heavenly Genesis experts. They've exceeded the limits if the Essence Path.

If you reach the 31st step, a peak sky-grade armament. 32nd, a pinnacle grade art. If one could reach the 33rd, they would immediately earn the right to the Xiantu Dao Trial, no longer requiring to participate any longer.

Yan Zaizen looked at the screens and found Lin Feilin's figure. He also found Prince Renlong from the Imperial Grux Family, it seems he reached the initial-Origin Core Realm despite Yan Zaizen stealing his pill. There were also countless other talents and notable figures including Yan Qiu.

”You may begin.” The voice resounded, causing all participants to soar towards those incredibly large steps at different paces. At the moment, no one was thinking of fighting or schemes. Their only thought was reaching the 13th step!

”Hm?” Yan Zaizen caught the sight of a figure dressed in blood-red, donning an oni mask, and soaring towards the first step slowly. For some odd reason, Yan Zaizen felt a hint of familiarity with this person. His cultivation had already reached the initial-Origin Core Realm and his aura contained an astonishing amount of blood qi.

”I wonder who'll reach the highest?” Grimm said, his eyes filled with competitiveness. Both he, Eke, and Moana had their own group entering this trial. His question was towards the others, unwilling to lose to them in terms of disciples or children.

However, Yan Zaizen exclaimed something almost instinctively that drew everyone's attention. ”Isn't that?!”

He slightly smiled, ”it seems...no matter the adversity, us three disciples will always rise given the opportunity.”
