C961 Crossing the Natural Chasm
However, at this moment, as the disciples finished their discussion, Ling Jian was the first to notice the ranking on the huge stone pillar at the edge of the chasm.
His eyes quickly swept over the various names on the stone pillar. When he saw Zuo Zi Fei and Baili Chang, who were ranked at the top of the stone pillar, the light in his eyes began to flicker.
Zuo Zi Fei was ranked first among the two of them. Behind him, there was a natural chasm that was 966 meters deep.
Baili Xuankui was the second. Behind him, the chasm was 955 meters deep.
Apart from the two, Liu Fangyan, who was ranked third, had only reached 949.
Ling Jian's eyes quickly swept over the name on the stone pillar, and he muttered to himself, "It seems that as long as I enter the deepest part of the chasm, there will be no real name on the stone pillar."
Ling Jian knew that the Saint Lady of the Great Void Palace had entered the deepest part of the chasm, but there was no name of the Saint Lady on it.
That was why he looked at the name on the stone pillar. On one hand, he wanted to know the ranking. On the other hand, he wanted to verify the identity of the saintess.
"Ling Yun, keep your eyes open."
Ling Jian instructed Ling Yun. Ling Yun nodded and stood where he was.
Seeing this, Ling Jian's eyes looked towards the natural chasm. Without any hesitation, he stepped lightly on the ground and headed straight for the natural chasm.
"Ling Jian has started as well."
At this moment, as Ling Jian appeared, many cultivators noticed him, especially when he rushed into the chasm. This caused the eyes of many cultivators to light up.
They also wanted to see what kind of depth Ling Jian could reach with his strength.
After all, Ling Jian had a power that didn't match his own cultivation. Among the three of them, Luo Xuan, Liu Fangyan, and Ling Jian were the most uncertain. Without a doubt, it was Ling Jian.
If Ling Jian could surpass Liu Fangyan in the chasm, then who knew whether Liu Fangyan would fulfill her promise and marry Ling Jian.
"You have some skills."
Under everyone's gaze, Ling Jian's figure flashed. In just a single move, he had already appeared at the 100th place of the Heavenly Chasm.
At this point, although he could ignore that feeling, Ling Jian could still feel it in the air around him. There was a faint resistance on his body, stopping him from moving forward.
"It is said that there are three watersheds, three hundred and ninety-nine, six hundred and ninety-nine, and nine hundred and ninety-nine. I wonder how the pressure will be like."
Ling Jian murmured in his heart. At the same time, he didn't stop moving his feet. Instead, his figure flashed. When he showed up again, he was at the depth of 399.
Hum.
When Ling Jian's foot landed on the three hundred and sixty-sixth step, the entire sky moat started to shake violently. At the same time, all the disciples in the sky moat felt it and were shocked.
"Hmm, someone actually reached the 399th step on his first time coming to the sky moat?"
Luo Xuan's foot had just landed on the 945th step of the natural chasm. Because the entire natural chasm was shaking, he instantly felt it.
Under such circumstances, only someone who had stepped into the chasm once had reached such a depth.
Beside Luo Xuan, Liu Fangyan also raised her eyebrows. However, she didn't pay too much attention to it. Instead, her gaze fell into the depths of the chasm.
Although the first entry into the 399th level would cause a stir, she would only be an ordinary disciple of the Grand Illusionary Palace. With her current status, it was impossible for her to pay too much attention to such matters.
Weng ~ ~
However, at the same time when Liu Fangyan's brows had just relaxed, there was another buzzing sound coming from within the chasm. Furthermore, this level of vibration was even more obvious and intense for the first time...
"It has actually reached a depth of 6,999 in such a short period of time?"
Liu Fangyan's brows were once again tightly knitted together. This time, even she felt that it was a little unbelievable.
The shock of the first three hundred and ninety-nine seconds had only lasted for a short time, but now, in just two or three breaths, it had reached the depth of six hundred and ninety-nine?
"It shouldn't be the same person, right?"
Luo Xuan could not help but frown. At the same time, he could not help but look towards the outer region of the natural chasm.
His eyes instantly landed on the 699th position. He saw a figure. It was none other than Ling Jian.
"That's... Ling Jian."
In an instant, Luo Xuan's pupils violently contracted. He had also recognized Ling Jian's identity with a single glance.
It was true that Ling Jian's fame in the entire Great Void Palace had reached a point where almost no one did not know about him. Furthermore, he was a Core Disciple of the Pill Dao cultivation faction and the head disciple of the Ancient Sky Shadow Sacred Seat. Naturally, he knew Ling Jian, the murderer who had killed Yang Haitian.
"This is Ling Jian?"
At the same time, Liu Fangyan, who was at the front, also looked over.
She was no stranger to Ling Jian. She had heard Tantai You talk about him before because he had been cultivating with Wei Zi Chan, and she was the head disciple of the array cultivation faction. However, this was the first time she had seen Ling Jian.
"I didn't expect him to cross the chasm as well!"
Luo Xuan couldn't help but frown deeply at this moment. His eyes fell on Ling Jian's body. Although they were so far apart, he could still feel a vague pressure from Ling Jian's body.
"No, I have to hurry."
After that, Luo Xuan looked at the chasm in front of him and went to the third floor in his heart.
Ha!
Luo Xuan suddenly shouted, and at the same time, an endless amount of Spiritual Energy surged out from his body, because under the pressure of the depths of the chasm, it was actually a pale white.
At this moment, Luo Xuan looked at the chasm in front of him. Just as he finished shouting, he suddenly took a step forward.
Dong.
After his foot landed, a low muffled sound immediately sounded out. However, even so, Luo Xuan did not have the slightest intention of stopping. After he took a step forward, the surrounding Spiritual Energy also began to wildly surge out.
Dong Dong Dong.
After three to four consecutive steps, a low muffled sound was continuously emitted.
After Luo Xuan's three steps, his figure appeared at 949 meters.
But even so, Luo Xuan didn't seem to be in a very friendly state. His face had already become extremely pale, and at the same time, there was fine sweat on his cheeks. Although he was standing there, his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
This was the pressure from the depths of the chasm. Even though Luo Xuan was a half-step Saint and the head disciple of the alchemy faction, under this pressure, it was still a bit hard to bear.
Fortunately, Luo Xuan quickly adapted to this pressure after pausing at this depth. This had allowed his condition to take a turn for the better.
At the 949th depth, Liu Fangyan also saw the three steps that Luo Xuan had suddenly taken. Her eyes revealed a strange glow.
To be honest, Luo Xuan's cultivation talent was also not weak. Even when compared to Liu Fangyan, he was not inferior at all.
However, even so, it wasn't easy for Luo Xuan to surpass him.
Knock, knock, knock!
Not long after Luo Xuan stopped, Liu Fangyan also stepped out. At the same time, her four steps had reached her limit!
Six hundred and fifty steps.
That was the best result Luo Xuan could get. Liu Fangyan only stopped at that level last time.
Not far behind Liu Fangyan, Luo Xuan's eyes were burning hot as he stared at Liu Fangyan's graceful back. Currently, he was only a step away from Liu Fangyan.
As long as he could take this step, he would be able to reach the same depth as Liu Fangyan.
"Fangyan, I'm here."
At this moment, a low shout suddenly came from Luo Xuan's mouth. He stared at the six hundred and fifty bottom of Liu Fangyan's body. Just as he was about to take his own step, the bottom of his feet suddenly shook.
Buzz!
Compared to the previous two times, the tremor this time around was even more intense. One could clearly sense it even when one was at the outer region of the natural chasm.
Sometimes, after the shaking started, there would be an intense rumbling sound that kept spreading in all directions.
At this moment, Luo Xuan had already planned to take the last step he thought he was going to take. However, after hearing the sound, he suddenly stopped when he was about to raise his foot.
At the same time, the expression on Luo Xuan's face changed drastically.
He couldn't help but turn his head around to look. He saw that Ling Jian's figure had already appeared at the 888th level of the natural chasm. He wasn't far from his current position.
"Damn you!"
Luo Xuan could not help but curse in a low voice. His gaze landed on Ling Jian's body and was completely filled with hatred.
On the other side, Tantai You also turned his head to look at Ling Jian, and his eyes revealed a strange light.
One must know that only a disciple could reach the 888th step in one go. If it wasn't the first time, even if he could reach the 888th step, he wouldn't be able to make such a noise.
Right now, Ling Jian was only at the early stage of the Heavenly Source Realm, and it was only the first time he had stepped into the Heavenly Chasm, yet he had already reached 888, which was already quite good.
On the other side, Ling Jian seemed to have sensed the gazes of the two. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the two of them.
In just a glance, Ling Jian was able to see the roundness in Luo Xuan's eyes.
Ling Jian's eyes narrowed during this process.
After that, Ling Jian's gaze turned to Liu Fangyan. When he saw Liu Fangyan's appearance, even with Ling Jian's mental state, the assassin's eyes couldn't help but light up.
At the same time, this was also the first time Ling Jian had met Liu Fangyan. As for what he had heard before, it was only from Tantai You's mouth.
According to what Tantai You said, Liu Fangyan was actually the most beautiful woman in the entire Great Void Palace and the head disciple of the array cultivation faction.
Previously, Ling Jian did not pay much attention to her, but now, when he looked over, he could see that Liu Fangyan's number one beauty was indeed worthy of her reputation.
Of course, other than Liu Fangyan's beauty, Ling Jian also deeply felt Liu Fangyan's unique temperament from her. It was her aloofness.
The women he had met in the past, such as Zhang Ling'Er, Young Miss, Yang Xueying, and even the current Tantai You, more or less carried themselves with an air of aloofness.
After all, these girls were the prodigies of their generation and the most outstanding ones in their respective areas.
However, when compared to Liu Fangyan, they were indeed slightly weaker in terms of coldness.
If coldness was divided into three, six, and nine grades, then without a doubt, Liu Fangyan was definitely at the ninth grade.
...
Ling Jian's gaze wasn't concealed at all, so Liu Fangyan was also able to sense it at the first possible moment.
While she looked at Ling Jian, although she felt some experience from him, she didn't feel anything else from him.
Even so, when she looked into Ling Jian's eyes, she felt like she had dropped a stone into the ocean. She was shocked and then she looked away.
"It seems that Ling Jian does have the capital to be a citizen of our country."
Liu Fangyan's heart was cold. After she calmed down, she stopped looking at Ling Jian and started to ignore him.
At least in her eyes, Ling Jian was in the depth of the chasm, so she didn't care about him at all.
He was over eight hundred and eighty meters deep. That was excellent, but it was still not enough for him to pull away from her and reach her current depth.
After all, she was a proud woman. If Ling Jian could get close to her, he should at least reach the same depth as her.
Besides, the deeper I go, the more obvious the pressure becomes.
When I reach over eight hundred, the pressure will become more obvious and different.
Ruina, although there seemed to be only a few dozen gaps between her and Ling Jian, if she really wanted to cross over, the difficulty would still be very high.
However, although Ling Jian's result was not bad in Liu Fangyan's eyes, it still caused quite a stir in the inner world of the disciples of the Supreme Void Palace.
After all, this was the first time Ling Jian had entered the chasm. Yet, this was only the first place, and it was already beyond their reach.
Now, Ling Yun was the only one who remained calm. He seemed to have expected all of this.
Because this was his master, Ling Jian.
He had an almost worshipping trust in Ling Jian.
He was the only one who knew that Yi Lingjian was strong enough to reach the deepest part of the chasm easily. If it was just a warm-up, he would have reached the deepest part of the chasm in one step.
"That's right. With such a result, he should be able to reach the deepest part of the wall."
At this moment, outside the chasm, there was a sound of exclamation coming from the bottom of the chasm.
At the moment, the final result of the wall was 896. It was quite close to Ling Jian's 888.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the bottom of the stone pillar when they heard this. Their eyes were cast on it. However, at this moment, the stone pillar suddenly burst out with a dazzling light. Soon after, a line of new words appeared at the bottom of the stone pillar.
"Wow, he has already entered the top hundred."
The disciples of the Great Void Palace were all surprised. When they saw the three numbers behind Ling Jian and were about to check how deep it was, there was a sudden change.
"Nine hundred and one!"
Immediately, another member of the Great Void Palace cried out in alarm. However, this was only the beginning.
Soon, the number behind the line of words that represented Ling Jian seemed to have been injected with stimulants. It rushed to a higher position on the stone pillar.
"Nine hundred and twenty!"
"Nine hundred and twenty-five!"
...2
The number rose crazily, until it reached the point where everyone was flabbergasted.
The disciples who had been paying attention to the stone column were all shocked.
It must be noted that most of the disciples of the Grand Illusionary Palace knew very well that once the chasm reached nine hundred, the pressure between each depth would increase by a great deal, and it would be very difficult not to increase it even once.
Now, though, Ling Jian was able to cross twenty meters on the original nine hundred, and in such a short amount of time. It was unbelievable.
Even Zuo Zi Fei, who was ranked first on the stone column, couldn't do it in such a short time, could he?
"This speed is really too fast."
"It's unbelievable!"
"He actually managed to reach a depth of twenty in one go. Who knows how he did it?"
