C31 (1/2)

On the sixth floor of the ancient pagoda, Zhou Hua stepped onto the stone stairs and turned around. He smiled mockingly at Cang Yun, who had yet to set off. ”From now on, I will keep you under my feet.”

”Is that so?”

Cang Yun smiled and said coldly, ”I don't think you have that kind of ability.”

”Heh, then I'll show you my ability!” As he finished speaking, the Origin Energy in his body fiercely surged out. In the blink of an eye, his figure had actually consecutively jumped over five stone stairs. After slightly turning around, his cold laughter rang out once again: ”How is his ability? Can you catch up to him?”

Cang Yun did not reply. Instead, he used his actions to prove himself. As his Origin Energy surged, he took a step and climbed up the stone stairs. Although his speed was not as fast as Zhou Hua, his footsteps were very steady.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Hua's expression darkened. He did not dare to delay any longer and turned around to continue climbing.

Six hours later.

However, Zhou Hua was currently not happy at all. This was because in these six hours, not only did the distance between him and Cang Yun not increase, instead, it was actually shrinking. This made him feel very uneasy, and even a little bit of panic had appeared in his heart.

”This guy's cultivation is only at the first layer of the Secret Treasure Trove, how could he go so far?” Zhou Hua gritted his teeth as he saw the figure chasing closely behind him.

Because right now, the pressure on the stone stairs was extremely huge, and it was quite difficult for him to climb with his current cultivation level. At this rate, he could at most reach his limit after a few more steps.

”Yes, this kid is definitely holding on. He won't be able to walk too far. I don't believe that I will lose!”

In the next moment, Zhou Hua consoled himself in his heart before he unwillingly buried his head and continued forward.

This time, he had expended the last bit of his physical strength, and his speed had also increased by a few points.

Another two hours passed.

Zhou Hua climbed up to the 90th step, and was only nine steps away from the finish line. When he looked up, he could clearly see the vast stone platform.

But at this moment, he was already exhausted. He was lying on the stone stairs, breathing heavily.

”What is it? can't walk anymore? ”

Suddenly, Cang Yun's voice sounded from behind him.

Hearing that, Zhou Hua turned his head with much difficulty, looking at the figure that he was jealous of and loathed. His feminine face revealed a look of disbelief, ”Impossible, how could you come to this place!”

Cang Yun smiled calmly, ”I've already said this before, you don't have that kind of ability if you want to trample me beneath your feet.”

”You …” Zhou Hua's face was ashen. The words he had said, yet he had been slapped in the face by someone else. That kind of feeling wasn't pleasant at all.
