Chapter 117 - Finished Walking The Path (1/2)

Ou Yangming swayed as if he would fall again at any time.

Nonetheless, no matter how dangerous his upper body looked, his legs were steady like rocks, and he looked like a 10,000-year-old ancient tree. Even if there was a strong and violent wind, as long as it did not overturn the Earth, it would certainly not blow him away.

With that, Ou Yangming made it through the fifth level, step by step, and arrived at the platform for the sixth level.

When Ni Jingtong and the other elders, who were on the sixth level, saw Ou Yangming’s state, they were in such disbelief that their faces took on a strange look.

Their hearts crumbled at that moment.

‘The young fella got up, he actually got up!’ ‘How did he… Get up?’ The elders had walked the Testimony Path in the past, so they knew very well how difficult the fifth level was. It was possible for one to complete it in one breath, but if one fell down halfway…

They were horrified at the thought of it, and were sure they would not have the courage to get back up again if they had fallen down.

However, an actual miracle had just taken place in front of the elders. ‘Ou Yangming. How did this young fella get up?’ “Could this fella…” Ni Jingtong mumbled, “Has his consciousness already surpa.s.sed his body?”

The other five Ni family powerhouses s.h.i.+vered because they were too aware of what it meant, but it was the exact reason they dared not believe it.

As Ni Jingtong and the other elders watched the seemingly exhausted Ou Yangming in disbelief, they broke out in a cold sweat. This was because they wanted to know if the teen, who had just walked the fifth level, had the remaining energy required to complete the sixth flight of stairs.

If Ou Yangming could really do it, it would mean that his quality and ability were not inferior at all to every genius in the Ni family over a thousand years. No, perhaps he was actually superior to them.

It was worth noting that Ou Yangming only had the strength of Yin Grade Cla.s.s One at the moment.

Even the three Ni family powerhouses who had completed the Testimony Path in the past had attempted it when they were at least at the peak of Yin Grade.

Therefore, Ni Jingtong and the rest had the same thought at the same time. ‘Is this young fella going to break the Ni family’s record?’

It was not a glorious thing because no disciple from the Ni family would be willing to see an outsider break their clan’s record. Nevertheless, the six powerhouses seemed to have forgotten about this because they looked quietly at Ou Yangming without wanting to disturb him.

Ou Yangming breathed heavily and instantly saw Ni Jingtong and the other elders when he looked up.

The elders were sitting in a spot furthest from the stairs, and each of them looked at him expressionlessly and with a cold look.

Ou Yangming smiled bitterly as he immediately realized that he had to walk over to them.

Despite that, he was already fearless. Unless he lost his life, he would not be taken down regardless of how difficult the situation was.

When Ou Yangming took a step out, he finally moved to the sixth level.

Although he did not know what the sixth level’s test was, he was well-prepared. He had somewhat figured out a pattern; the first three levels were related to one’s physical fitness, hence one with strong physical power and willpower could pa.s.s them.

From the fourth level onward, one’s mental state was tested.

Ou Yangming could easily pa.s.s the fourth level, but suffered terribly on the fifth level, thus the sixth level—the final level-was definitely going to be a challenge. If he was slightly careless, his previous efforts would be in vain.

He slowly took a step forward.

Ou Yangming suddenly raised his eyebrows and seemed to be in disbelief. There was neither a feeling of difficulty nor irresistible pressure. It was as though the path ahead was a flat road, and he could easily walk with big strides to the finis.h.i.+ng point.

He had experienced the feeling once, when he was on the fourth level, and he had pa.s.sed it with no surprises and at ease.

As such, when he experienced the same feeling again, he could not help but feel relaxed.

After taking two more steps, Ou Yangming had loosened up even more. An inexplicable and unstoppable feeling of delight rose from his heart, and was about to take over his other emotions.

From being extremely pressured and dispirited, he suddenly experienced a completely different emotion, and the intense impact from the instant change was vastly different.

Ni Jingtong and the other elders widened their eyes and stared at Ou Yangming. They had crumbled in the past from undergoing the drastic change of emotions, changing from being in great suffering to feeling great joy. If anyone could withstand the instant change of feelings from one extreme end to the other, it must be someone with non-human and freaky willpower. That said, a freak like that was extremely rare, so there were only three in the Ni family over a thousand years.

When Ou Yangming suddenly halted, Ni Jingtong and the rest said to themselves, ‘It’s here!’

Nonetheless, it was then that Old Craftsman’s thin face flashed in Ou Yangming’s mind.
