Chapter 2589 - Surpassing the predecessors! (1/2)

“Interesting, to reach the 792nd step. ”

A black-robed youth said, his arms crossed on his chest, standing in the crowd, emitting an arrogant and cold aura, completely different from the others. The wild and overbearing gaze in his eyes caused the other disciples to dare not meet his eyes.

The youth’s expression was gloomy as he watched the numbers on the tablet, his eyes were filled with fighting intent.

“Nobody else in the Eastern Emperor Sect can go beyond me, except for that monster.” The youth said coldly.

He was the Second Brother of the Eastern Emperor Sect, the man before Donghuang Tai’a, Donghuang Taiji. He and Tai’a were of the same generation but the latter’s brilliance was too bright, overshadowing him completely the moment he was born.

Donghuang Taiji did not feel bad about it. Because Tai’a was his big brother, Taiji knew how much he’s worth. Since he couldn’t become the world’s number one, it’s not bad to become number two.

Ling Guang was able to reach the 700th step but couldn’t take more than ten strikes from Taiji, although he’s also a Half-Step Divine King. Taiji could now fight on-par against other Eastern Emperor Sect Divine King experts. It was the pride of a prodigy.

Now that Jiang Chen has appeared, Donghuang Taiji was itching to know how powerful this rookie was, who has shocked so many people with his accomplishment.

Jiang Chen gazed at the four characters. He felt that those four characters were like an insurmountable and tall mountain. However, he was one of those that would fight back when faced with an obstacle, when it was impossible. He’s that stubborn of a guy. Plus, he believed that he could surpass Donghuang Tai’a.

“Surpassing you is not my goal, my goal is to surpass myself, to surpass all others, to surpass all powerful beings!”

Jiang Chen looked at the name who was respected by countless others indifferently and smiled as he continued to move forward, towards the 793rd step.

“Is this real? Did he surpass Great Brother?”

“It should be real, this psychic tablet is not your average treasure. It’s an ancient treasure, it shouldn’t be wrong.”

“This lad is extraordinary!”

“I am getting excited to know how far he’ll reach, as if all the miracles in the world would happen on his body.”

“Jiang Chen, is it? His name shall reach across the whole Eastern Emperor Sect, even the whole Qilian Region.”

Many more people gathered below the Emperor Extremity Mountain with eyes of worship, awe, and shock.  Jiang Chen was like a powerful war god that never retreats.

The moment Jiang Chen reached the 799th step, the extreme cold started to coarse through his whole body. He then felt an extreme cold that he had never experienced before, seeping into his blood, his bone marrows, even his every cell.

“It is extremely cold in tall places, this is true.” Jiang Chen looked back at the clouds beneath his feet.

He has reached the height where the clouds resided on the Emperor Extremity Mountain. The cold felt like it came from deep within his heart and from the world. Those who are weak would surely become an icicle by now.

The 800th flight!

When Jiang Chen reached the 800 flight of stairs, the whole Eastern Emperor Sect was in an uproar. Because that was where the Sect Lord had reached.
