Sixth Place
"Sixth place …"
Everyone on the platform stared at the golden tower in a daze. Although no one had any doubts about Zhuowen's strength, they didn't think that it was possible for Zhuowen to reach the sixth place.
As for Zhuo Wen being able to reach the sixth rank, no one found it strange. However, Zhuo Wen had jumped from the 605th rank to the sixth rank when the pressure was at its strongest when night fell on Zhong Ling Mountain.
Such speed and method was the reason why everyone found it inconceivable. Some people even thought that there was something wrong with their eyes. Such abnormal speed had greatly exceeded their expectations.
"Zhuowen has stopped at the thousandth step. It seems that this is his limit!
After all, this kid's rise during the night was a bit too fierce, so he should stop and rest. "
"Zhuowen's strength seems to be beyond our expectations. If this kid climbed during the day, he might be able to compete for the top three!
But now, he has exhausted too much of his strength during the night. I'm afraid his final result won't be much higher than the thousandth step. "
"…"
When they saw that Zhuo Wen had finally stopped at the thousandth step, many sighs of regret sounded out from the platform. They all knew that Zhuo Wen was able to climb to the thousandth step at night. If it was during the day, his result would be even better.
But now that Zhuowen had stopped, his limit should be around the thousandth step. Therefore, many people felt that it was a pity that Zhuowen had wasted too much energy during the night when the pressure was much stronger. It wasn't worth it.
Lü Nantian nodded with satisfaction. The more he looked at Zhuowen, the more he liked him. Whether it was strength or talent, this kid was comparable to the top geniuses of the five super forces. Moreover, he was very young. If he was carefully nurtured, his strength would undergo an earth-shattering change.
"After the Origin Qi Tower ends, no matter what price I have to pay, I will definitely pull Zhuowen into the House of Marquis Qin. At the very least, I need to build a good relationship with Zhuowen!
He will definitely become one of the main figures in the War of the Nine Counties. "
Lü Nantian's eyes lit up. In fact, he didn't care too much about who won the Vitality Tower Competition because he knew very well that the Vitality Tower Competition was only a means to select the geniuses of Muqin County.
Lü Nantian's ultimate goal was the upcoming Great Battle of the Nine Countries. During the Great Battle of the Nine Countries, not only would the Qing Emperor Ranking List be rearranged, but the top three countries would also be selected. If Muqin County could enter the top three, the ruler of the Qing Xuan Empire, Great Emperor Qing, would probably reward them with a lot of resources, which would be very beneficial for the development of Muqin County.
It was precisely because of the Battle of the Nine Countries that Lu Nantian had a strong desire for outstanding geniuses. If a peerless genius like Lv Yitao could appear in the Battle of the Nine Countries this time, Mu Qin Marquis Mansion would have a ninety percent chance of winning the Battle of the Nine Countries.
It was a pity that a peerless genius like Lv Yitao couldn't be created just by relying on resources. It should be known that Luo Xing of the Jade Lady Star Court was already extremely talented, but the gap between her and Lv Yitao was still very large.
On Zhong Ling Mountain, when Zhuowen's ranking soared to the sixth place, Qin Batian and Xu Tianliang, who were originally ranked fifth and fourth, felt something. They took out their identity tokens and immediately saw Zhuowen's light spot behind them.
"Motherf * cker!
What's wrong with this Zhuowen?
When did he reach the thousandth step?
Is there only a gap of five steps between us? "
Qin Batian, who was sitting cross-legged on the thousandth and fifth step, suddenly couldn't stay calm. Like a mad tiger, he suddenly jumped up and his face was filled with disbelief.
Although Zhuowen's climbing speed had indeed attracted his attention, at that time, Zhuowen's number of steps wasn't very high. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to it. He only felt that there was something wrong with this Zhuowen's brain. How could he climb Zhong Ling Mountain at night?
However, he didn't think so anymore. The long night was only half over, and this Zhuowen had actually reached the thousandth step unknowingly. This speed really shocked him.
"Isn't this Zhuowen only at the peak of the Ultimate Emperor Stage?
How could he climb to such a height at night?
No, I definitely can't let this brat surpass me. Otherwise, I'll definitely be beaten to death by my father. "
At this moment, Qin Batian was like an ant on a hot pan. If he was overtaken by Lv Yitao, Xu Tianliang and the other four geniuses, he wouldn't have any objections. After all, he was one of the weaker ones among the five geniuses, and it wouldn't be shameful for him to be overtaken by them.
However, Zhuowen was merely a cultivator from a low grade city. In his eyes, cultivators with such a background were all lowly and insignificant existences. If he was overtaken by Zhuowen, he would really lose a lot of face. Furthermore, he would definitely be beaten up when he returned.
In order to not be beaten up, Qin Batian gritted his teeth and stood up once again. His foot suddenly landed on the thousandth and sixth step. However, the pressure at night was really too terrifying. Furthermore, after the thousandth step, the pressure would undergo a qualitative change. Even Qin Batian couldn't help but feel his chest tighten.
With a groan, Qin Batian said somewhat discouraged, "The pressure is too strong. Let's wait until daybreak!
After the thousandth step, the pressure will undergo a qualitative change. This Zhuowen probably won't be so crazy as to continue climbing at night. "
As he spoke, Qin Batian kept his identity token and sat down cross-legged to meditate. He planned to immediately climb tomorrow morning and shake off this Zhuowen as much as possible.
As for the fourth place Xu Tianliang, his mood was extremely bad. Especially when he saw the sixth place Zhuowen's name, his expression became extremely ugly.
"When did this little bastard reach sixth place?"
His eyes flickered as Xu Tianliang stood up. Zhuowen's rapid ascent had finally caused Xu Tianliang to feel a sense of crisis. With his arrogance, he definitely wouldn't allow this Zhuowen to surpass him, even if it was close to him.
"Back then, you were just a stray dog under this seat. To actually be able to reach this level, it seems like you have made some progress. However, if you want to surpass me, Zhuowen, you better wait for your next life!"
As he spoke, Xu Tianliang suddenly took a step forward and directly walked towards the next step. Countless layers of pressure pressed down on his spine, but Xu Tianliang didn't feel it at all. He only let out a muffled groan and still climbed up the steps step by step.
He, Xu Tianliang, also had his own pride!
On the thousandth step, Zhuowen silently stood there as he stared at the steps below him. He smiled and said, "The heavens are really helping me!
I never thought that the thousandth step would actually have a weakness. Looks like there's hope for a breakthrough in the 《Great Nirvana Sun》. "
"Kid!
Pay attention this time. Last time, you were too greedy, so you caused the weapon spirit of Zhong Ling Mountain to counterattack. This time, you must not absorb too much spiritual energy. Don't drain the pond to catch fish. Try to slow down. This dragon lord will help you hide your aura. As long as you don't go overboard, the weapon spirit won't notice. "
At this moment, Xiao Hei in his mind became particularly serious. Recalling the previous experience of being chased by the weapon spirit, it wasn't too good.
"Don't worry!
This time, I will pay attention. This time, I will absorb the spiritual energy of breaking through twenty apertures. "Zhuowen also nodded.
"En!
You can absorb it now. This dragon lord will cover you. "
Xiao Hei nodded. With a wave of her small claws, a black mist immediately enveloped the steps.
Taking a deep breath, Zhuowen did not hold back. His right hand formed a claw, and a stream of golden veins burst out from his body. Then, Zhuowen suddenly pointed his claw, and like a reinforced iron bone, it blasted a palm-sized hole on the steps.
With Zhuowen's current physical strength, it wasn't too difficult to shatter this relatively weak step.
Whoosh!
Waves of blue mist-like spiritual energy slowly flowed out of the hole, and Zhuowen immediately sat cross-legged, silently absorbing this spiritual energy to strengthen the mental strength in his Niwan Palace, so that he could use the strengthened mental strength to break through the remaining apertures.
This time, under Xiao Hei's reminder, Zhuowen deliberately suppressed the speed of absorbing spiritual energy, so the speed of breaking through the apertures became much slower.
However, Zhuo Wen also realized that this slow process of absorbing Spirit Qi did not cause the slightest reaction from Zhong Ling Mountain's Artifact Spirit. It seemed that what Xiao Hei said was right. A thin stream flowing for a long time was indeed much better than a turbulent sea.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Golden light spread throughout Zhuowen's body, and golden veins spread to every corner of Zhuowen's body, causing Zhuowen to look dignified and sacred.
Under the effect of the spiritual energy, each aperture was slowly broken through by Zhuowen …
The long night gradually passed, and a trace of white appeared on the eastern horizon. When the first ray of sunlight shone on Zhong Ling Mountain, the ferocious beast roars that constantly spread throughout Zhong Ling Mountain slowly quieted down, and the terrifying pressure also weakened by many times.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! On Zhong Ling Mountain, figures who were sitting cross-legged slowly stood up. They all knew that the day had arrived, and they should continue climbing towards the top of Zhong Ling Mountain.
Qin Batian also stood up and immediately took out his identity token. When he saw that he was still in fifth place, he sighed lightly. Fortunately, Zhuowen did not continue climbing last night. Otherwise, the gap of five steps would have been directly surpassed.
"This Zhuowen has not made any movements until now. Perhaps the thousandth step is his limit!"
As he thought of this in his heart, Qin Batian did not slow down in the slightest as he continued to climb upwards. However, when his gaze landed on the fourth place, Xu Tianliang, he was instantly stunned. Unknowingly, Xu Tianliang had already reached the 6605 step, and was not far away from the third place, Zhu Chi.
"Could it be that Xu Tianliang was provoked by Zhuowen last night?
To actually climb so many steps in the night, I'm afraid that this fellow doesn't have much strength left! "
Qin Batian quickly thought of the reason why Xu Tianliang was so fast and shook his head. However, he was gloating in his heart. Xu Tianliang's exhaustion during the night gave him an opportunity.
"Looks like I'll be able to surpass Xu Tianliang today, hehe!"
