C2230 Top of the peak(2)
At the foot of the mountain, Gu Daozi stabilised his body, his face ashen, his eyes frighteningly cold.
He was actually sent flying!
He had thought that it was possible that he wouldn't be able to reach the summit of the mountain, but he never thought that under the gazes of everyone present, he would instantly slide down to the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, a great sense of humiliation emerged from the bottom of his heart.
However, Gu Daozi was a Heavenly Sovereign Ranker who had cultivated for countless of years. This kind of emotion was forcefully suppressed the moment it appeared. He then narrowed his eyes and coldly swept a glance at Tang Huan, who was getting closer and closer to the summit.
"Tang Huan, this old man has truly underestimated you!"
Gu Daozi took a light breath and began climbing up once again.
However, the unforeseen event that happened to him a moment ago had caused many cultivators to turn their attention to the top.
Looking at the figure who was still advancing forward, the eyes of many Heavenly Sovereign s revealed unconcealable astonishment and shock. Although they had not reached such a height, from Gu Daozi's performance, they could tell how enormous the pressure on the region above was.
The dignified first ranker, Gu Daozi, was actually unable to endure it.
But strangely, not only was Tang Huan able to resist the terrifying pressure, he was also able to continuously go upwards. This huge contrast made everyone feel that it was inconceivable.
However, their performance here was completely reversed. From the looks of the current situation, it was extremely likely that Tang Huan would be the first Heavenly Sovereign to reach the summit, and even possibly the only one.
As for Gu Daozi ?
Originally, everyone thought that he would very likely surpass Tang Huan and be the first one to reach the summit. However, the scene just now caused everyone's thoughts to greatly change.
Now, the crowd was no longer optimistic about his following performance.
Traveling so far above the mountain range, Gu Daozi must have already expended a large amount of energy. With his current condition, it was unknown whether he could even return to his original position, let alone reach the summit. On this mountain peak, his gains could not be compared with Tang Huan's.
Furthermore, the mistake just now made it possible that he couldn't even catch up to Qin Xianye and the others.
Thinking of this, besides feeling regret, everyone could not help but gloat.
Although they were both Heavenly Sovereign, there was still a huge difference between Heavenly Sovereign and Heavenly Sovereign. To them, Gu Daozi had always been an existence that they could only look up to, a being so high and mighty that it was hard to reach.
This made the people who were dissatisfied with the Clear Void Pavilion feel even better.
"My strength is lacking, that's exactly it!"
High up on the mountain peaks, Tang Huan also felt the change in events and couldn't help but smile to himself.
On this mountain peak, one could not absorb the energy of the outside world. If one wanted to replenish their own energy, they would have to rely on themselves.
Although Tang Huan did not pay close attention, during the process of climbing, he had absorbed and refined a lot of energy to supplement his strength. Unfortunately, his recovery speed was obviously unable to keep up with his rate of consumption, if not, he would not have been blasted down just now due to a moment of absent-mindedness.
At the current stage, it was already impossible for Gu Daozi to return to his original position, and it was even more impossible for her to catch up to him.
The two treasures at the peak of the mountain were surely not fated to be with him.
Tang Huan shook his head, he had already calmed himself down and focused his attention on himself.
The "Yan Luo Golden Immortal" was still in his palm, and the energy that surged out from the flower was still being refined by the sucking into Tang Huan's body. Even though Tang Huan's death was like flowing water and he was constantly replenishing his energy, he was able to maintain his balance.
With sufficient strength, Tang Huan's footsteps naturally became more steady.
Time trickled by bit by bit. Tang Huan forcefully endured the boundless pressure as he advanced step by step. Unknowingly, the distance between Tang Huan and the peak of the mountain slowly shrank.
10 meters, 9 meters, 6 meters, 3 meters
When he was only one step away from the peak, Tang Huan's figure stopped once again.
This was the most critical and most difficult step. The pressure that Tang Huan was currently facing was already incomparably strong, and even though his steps were steady, he still had a faint feeling that his body was floating like duckweed.
It was as if once he took another step, his body would float upwards.
Tang Huan took a deep breath, calmed his heart and concentrated. After a moment, Tang Huan had activated both the Dao Nascent Soul and "Nine Sun Divine Caldron" to their limits at the same time, and the energy in his body started to surge crazily like raging waves.
In that moment, Tang Huan raised his right leg.
Following this action, the enormous power within his body immediately followed along Tang Huan's right leg and roared towards that direction like a collapsing embankment and a raging wave, with the power to topple mountains and overturn the seas.
"Thump!"
After stepping onto the mountain peak, Tang Huan's body leaned forward, and took the opportunity to retract his left leg. Following that, his body slightly trembled, as if he would fall down at any time.
Fortunately the trembling only lasted for a moment, Tang Huan's body became as stable as a boulder.
"He's here!"
Tang Huan heaved a sigh of relief, and revealed a happy smile.
"He went up!"
In the upper area of the mountain, the glazed glass's taut face relaxed, and her beautiful eyes revealed a deep smile.
When Tang Huan took another step forward, the glazed glass's speed had slowed down. Half of her attention was focused on the mountain peaks, and two pairs of eyes were following the figure as he climbed up, step by step. Now, the figure had finally reached the summit.
However, in addition to being happy, glazed glass also couldn't help but feel a little rueful.
Since the time she met Tang Huan in the lower realms, "Imperial Dragon Palace", she knew that as long as he didn't die, there would be a day when he would step into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm.
In these past few years, Tang Huan had indeed been advancing towards her judgement step by step. The current Tang Huan had long surpassed her, and had surpassed her by a lot.
Originally, she thought that Tang Huan was still ranked twelfth on the revered list.
But at that moment, she understood, Tang Huan had been cultivating in the space of the "Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall" for a very long time, his cultivation must have had a huge breakthrough. The reason why this breakthrough didn't appear on the honorary list was that the existence of the Ancestral Court had already transcended the heavens' law.
Once one walked out of the Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall, the heavens would check it. Not only would Tang Huan's ranking change, the rankings of the other Heavenly Sovereign s would also change. Of course, there would definitely not be as many people on the new list as before, because there were many Heavenly Sovereign who had already lost their souls.
The dead Heavenly Sovereign would definitely be removed from the honorary list.
I wonder what Tang Huan's rank will be on the honored list after the new one appears? There was definitely no problem for the top ten. As for the top three ?
The thoughts in glazed glass's mind raced. From the previous performance, Tang Huan was clearly superior to Gu Daozi, but he could not conclude that Tang Huan was able to surpass the first ranked Gu Daozi. From this, he could tell that Tang Huan was probably weaker than Yuan Chao and.
The second rank on the revered list was perhaps Tang Huan's new rank.
Thinking about it, glazed glass couldn't help but look forward to it. Compared to her, the other Heavenly Sovereign s were completely filled with shock.
"They went up! He went up! "
"He really reached the summit!"
"That is a treasure that can help him corroborate the Dao of the Divine Level. It seems like it's already in his possession!"
"?"
Although everyone had long anticipated the scene that would happen at the peak of Yu Feng and had already mentally prepared themselves for it, to personally witness Tang Huan successfully ascend the peak, everyone couldn't help but be greatly shocked. After all, reaching the summit of Yu Feng meant that they had a high chance of obtaining the most valuable treasure.
The most valuable treasure that can help one prove the dao of Divine Level
This kind of treasure, was rarely seen since the ancient times, but it was about to fall into Tang Huan's hands.
When this "Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall" was revealed, Tang Huan was still just a lower Heavenly Sovereign. He had cultivated in the space of the Ancestral Court for many years, so he might even be a middle Heavenly Sovereign. While the other Heavenly Sovereign s at the peak of the upper echelons were putting in all their effort to verify the Dao of the Divine Level, Tang Huan, a middle Heavenly Sovereign, already had a treasure that could be used to prove the Dao of the Divine Level.
For a moment, the gazes that everyone looked at the peak of the mountain were filled with jealousy, envy, and resentment.
Under dozens of gazes, Tang Huan looked at the two streams of white light that were within reach of his body. These two blobs of light were like living creatures, leisurely wandering around this small area. They never left the peak and ran to other areas of the mountain range.
With a thought, the "Yan Luo Golden Immortal" was put away and Tang Huan's mind enveloped the two balls of white light.
Although he felt that the chances of success were not high, Tang Huan still wanted to try and see if he could discover the difference between the two balls of white light. When they had just entered this space, Tang Huan had once said that there was only a possibility for them to reach the peak of the mountain and obtain Keke's assistance in proving the value of the Divine Level!
Whether or not there really was such a treasure, Tang Huan could not confirm.
If he could determine the difference between the two lumps of light, then it would be of great help to him in his next choice. He had already spent a long time anyway, so he was in no hurry.
Tang Huan's heart was as calm as water, his eyes slightly closed as he carefully probed around. After a long while, he could not help but slightly furrow his brows.
The aura exuded by the two balls of white light was exactly the same as that of the mountain range. From Tang Huan's senses, they were definitely a part of the mountain range.
Even when Tang Huan pushed the three Divine Crystal to their limits, he still did not discover anything.
"Forget it, I'll just leave it up to fate!"
Tang Huan thought for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes. His right hand grabbed out like lightning, and a ball of white light immediately fell into his palm.
But right after, the ball of white light had already entered his palm and disappeared.
"Rumble ?"
This sudden turn of events caused Tang Huan to be unable to help but be slightly taken aback. However, before he could even react, he felt a sense of relief, as though he had not felt in a long time. That terrifying pressure actually disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Accompanying this sound, the mountain range began to tremble intensely.
Tang Huan suddenly woke up and immediately realised that the test of the "Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall" was about to end. Not only that, everyone would be teleported out of the Ancestral Courtyard very quickly.
If no one reached the summit, this space would only teleport the cultivators who had obtained treasures out one by one. Only when the final person had teleported away or when the time for the test had passed would the "Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall" be sealed.
However, if someone managed to reach the top and obtain a treasure, all the cultivators would be teleported out together and the ancestral courtyard would be sealed as well. Now that Tang Huan had obtained a ball of white light, it meant that the test had ended.
"Sister Liu Li, hurry up and make your move. We are about to leave the Ancestral Court." Tang Huan shouted loudly.
"It ended just like that?"
"So fast?"
"Why is this happening?"
"?"
Originally, everyone had their doubts, but upon hearing this, they couldn't help but exclaim.
glazed glass, Qin Xianye and Ji Qingtian were stunned for a moment before they immediately moved, grabbing onto the ball of white light closest to them at lightning speed. A flash of extreme unwillingness appeared in Yuan Chao's eyes. Even though he was unwilling to believe what Tang Huan had said, his body seemed to be extremely honest.
Gu Daozi stopped in his tracks, his eyes flickered slightly, and quickly grabbed a ball of white colored flowing light.
From all over the mountain peaks, although the other Heavenly Sovereign s still could not believe what they were seeing, their hands did not move slow at all. All of them started to move.2
"Whooosh."
In the time it took to take a breath or two, a string of white-colored odor rose from the mountain peaks, wrapping everyone up like cocoons. After a short while, they all felt an irresistible force imprisoning them and involuntarily rose into the air.
Not long after, the energy dissipated into nothingness.
Almost at the same time, a huge change occurred in everyone's line of sight. The conical mountain range, cloud passage, and the tall platform had all disappeared. In their line of sight, there was the boundless space and the continuous undulations of the mountain range.
Everyone immediately looked around ?
Numerous buildings of all kinds stood in the vast area below the white chaos. Numerous auras, whether strong or weak, were densely packed inside or outside the buildings. They crisscrossed each other, appearing just like a huge net that stretched endlessly.
It was an enormous city.
"We're back!"
A cry of alarm jolted the slightly astonished crowd from their stupor.
In that instant, all the Heavenly Sovereign s realized that they had already left the "Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall" and were teleported to the entrance of Qu Atian's ancestral house. So many years had passed, yet the outside world, with this "Immortal Spirit Ancestral Hall" as the center, had spontaneously formed such a huge city.
As a Heavenly Sovereign Ranker, he naturally knew the cause of this city in an instant.
However, looking at the rapidly shrinking white chaos, everyone had a premonition that this city would soon disappear.
