Chapter 875 Cloud Ladder (2/2)

“If this guy can’t pass the cloud ladder round, it will be really laughable.” Zuo Ya sneered.

Smiling, Zhu Lian nodded. The stone ladder was originally intended to eliminate people with insufficient foundations. If Zhou Yuan only possessed the strength he did before, it would be impossible for him to reach the top of the mountain.

Zuo Ya cast a glance over at Yi Qiushui on the Wind Pavilion’s side, and their two gazes collided. The corners of Zuo Ya’s red lips curved in an undisguised mocking smile, and she mouthed, “Yi Qiushui, prepare your 10,000 origin coins!”

However, Yi Qiushui simply glanced coldly at her and no longer paid any attention to her.

Do these people think it is still the same as a month ago?

“Lu Xiao is starting!”

Exclamations suddenly rang out because, after a moment of adjustment, Lu Xiao stomped his feet and rapidly rose up the ladder as though flying. Moreover, his expression was calm and relaxed.

Countless people couldn’t help but marvel when they saw him ascend. He was indeed worthy of being called the leader of the young generation of the Tianyuan Region. The fact that he was able to calmly advance and take the lead under this pressure showed that his Genesis Qi foundation had reached at least 20 million.

After Lu Xiao moved, Han Yuan and Mu Liu also stepped up onto the ladder.

They weren’t as leisurely as Lu Xiao, but they were still able to rush up from time to time after a little pause.

The pavilion masters of the Fire Pavilion, the Mountain Pavilion and the Forest Pavilion had begun to move up the cloud ladder leading to the top of the mountain. Zhou Yuan was the only one who hadn’t moved. Was the Wind Pavilion’s dark horse finally at the end of his rope?

Amidst the countless hopeful, mocking and pitiful gazes, Zhou Yuan finally moved. He lifted his head and curiously studied the ladder. “I can’t use the wind spirit rune or any other objects?”

Through the previous period of adaptation he already knew that if he wanted to climb to the top of the cloud ladder, he had to rely on his own Genesis Qi foundation to counter the pervasive pressure.

And that Genesis Qi foundation had to be at least 20 million Genesis Qi stars!

Zhou Yuan sighed emotionally. If he hadn’t broken through to the advanced Divine Dwelling stage, he really wouldn’t have been able to progress further than the cloud ladder round.

But now, this round wasn’t a problem for him.

Thus, the Genesis Qi within Zhou Yuan’s body pulsed around his body, and a mighty force burst forth. He lifted his feet and moved up the ladder step by step.

His move attracted countless attention.

“Hah, one step at a time? Is he a turtle?” Zuo Ya sneered coldly and turned to look at her senior brother Lu Xiao, who was walking as if flying. How could Zhou Yuan be compared to his calm and relaxed manner?

But her sneer didn’t last long because everyone found that although Zhou Yuan’s steps were slow, they were incredibly steady as if the terrifying pressure didn’t exist. The feeling was like climbing an ordinary mountain.

In an occasion like this, that kind of ordinary climbing posture was enough to make people feel that he wasn’t ordinary.

At the very least, Han Yuan and Mu Lie had to pause every dozens of breaths, but Zhou Yuan’s climbing speed wasn’t slower than theirs, yet he didn’t need to stop once. From this anyone could see the difference in strength between them.

On the cloud ladders, in addition to Zhou Yuan who was calm and relaxed, was Lu Xiao who had also taken the lead.

An uproar broke out. From this scene it was clear that, based on Genesis Qi foundation alone, the wind pavilion master was superior to both Han Yuan and Mu Liu and could even compete with Lu Xiao!
