2744: Reaching the Peak

Reaching the Peak

When she looked back, she saw a vast expanse of mist, and she couldn't see the elderly man or others. Was it possible that she had re-entered an illusory realm? She considered it in her heart but dismissed it because the location where she was at the time was already in the final steps of the Immortal Ascension Ladder. Not many people would have reached this place. The elderly man should have descended the ladder by now, right?2

As she climbed, she pondered. According to reports, this Immortal Ascension Ladder connects to another location. If she really went up, wouldn't she…

When she thought about this, her heart tingled. Since none of her family or friends were here, she didn't want to go off on her own.

Why exactly did Old Man Tianji tell her to come here? She had already climbed the Immortal Ascension Ladder, the Golden Lotus had also... That's not right. The Golden Lotus! Could the Golden Lotus in her space pool be the one of the Ancient Golden Lotuses that Mo Chen mentioned?

She stopped walking as though she had suddenly realised something. This Golden Lotus was probably the most important reason she came to Immortal Ascension Ladder, right? Even if he told her to come to the Immortal Ascension Ladder, which she had already gone up now, there appeared to be nothing unusual about it.

Looking ahead, the stairs in the immortal path continued and she kept walking, gradually getting closer and closer to the top peak. But when she reached the end and saw the final staircase and the ethereal door beyond, she paused and did not take the final step.

"This must be the top of the Immortal Ascension Ladder, right? It's nothing special." She muttered in a low voice and looked through the ethereal door in front of her, but she couldn't see anything in the white expanse.

She had no idea that behind the ethereal door, where she couldn't see, several figures were sitting on the clouds, staring at Feng Jiu, who was standing by the door.

One of the elderly men, who was stroking his beard, could not conceal his surprise. "How unusual! How unexpected! Someone has successfully gone up the ladder this year and he is still so young."

"It's obvious that your vision has deteriorated with age. It's obviously a little girl. Why did you see a young man?"

A cultivator next to him who appeared to be only six or seven years old spoke. Although he looked like a child, he was actually the oldest of those few people. Yet, the higher one's cultivation was, the longer he could stay at one age at will, so he appeared to be a child.

"A woman?"

A beautiful woman next to him remarked. After looking at the young man in red carefully for a while, she was surprised and said with a smile. "She's a woman, indeed. Finally, this year, my sect will be able to claim this one."

"Hahahaha, how many years has it been since such an exceptional cultivator has appeared here? These days, it is uncommon to find such a beautiful young man. In any case, this person should belong to my sect."

"Don't fight over her. I want this girl."

"No, that won't do. I want her, I want her."

"How can that work? I said it first."

"I could tell she was a young girl, so if she joins an immortal sect, she should join mine."

Several of them started arguing. But, one person with sharp eyes spoke up. "Stop arguing. Why is the girl turning around and walking away?"
