Chapter 3839

Zi Chen saw a towering mountain peak, and he was standing at the foot of it.

As far as the eye could see, the stone steps were like ladders that extended up into the clouds.

There were countless stone steps, at least tens of thousands of steps.

An old man stood at the foot of the stone steps and looked at Zi Chen with a smile. "Welcome to the cloud stairs, and congratulations on reaching the top 85."

Zi Chen looked at the old man in front of him and said, "As long as I reach the top, the mission will be considered complete, right?"

The old man said with a smile, "In fact, even if you retreat, the mission will still be considered complete.

You've already obtained the qualifications and entered the top 85, so it's not a bad idea to give up now. "

Zi Chen shook his head.

The old man asked curiously, "Do you still want to enter the top 75, or the top 65?"

Zi Chen shook his head again and said, "I've never thought about it, but since I'm here, I naturally have to go up."

The old man nodded slightly, but the smile on his face did not fade. "Then you have to be careful. This is the Wenxin Road, and it's full of thorns and tribulations. It's not easy to walk."

"Let's take a look first."

Zi Chen walked forward, and under the old man's gaze, he walked up the cloud stairs.

However, just as he took a step, he suddenly looked back at the old man. "You won't attack me, right?"

"No one can attack you when you're on the cloud stairs. If you don't want to go, just retreat," the old man said.

Only then did Zi Chen nod his head in satisfaction and walk up to him.

A wind appeared, blowing down from above, bringing with it a sense of coldness.

Zi Chen subconsciously shrank his body and continued to walk forward.

At the same time, Shan Ya also arrived at the foot of the mountain and saw the old man that Zi Chen saw, but she was not in the same space as Zi Chen.

The old man said the same thing, but Shan Ya ignored him and walked forward.

"Actually, you don't have to do this, because if you quit now, you won't lose anything and won't suffer."

Shan Ya, who was about to reach the cloud stairs, turned back to look at the old man and said, "Thank you for the reminder."

She stepped on the cloud stairs, and ripples of light appeared under her feet. In the next moment, her figure disappeared.

The smile on the old man's face froze. He immediately lifted his head and looked up. Shan Ya was standing at the peak of the mountain. Her beautiful face was filled with vigilance.

Because this was the top of the mountain and she had only taken one step.

It was impossible to reach the heavens in a single step, so what was the point of all this?

The old man looked at Shan Ya, who was standing at the top. He was so shocked that he couldn't say a word. He stood there in a daze, as if he had been petrified.

He only reacted when Shan Ya's alert voice rang out. The next moment, he appeared in front of Shan Ya. Although he tried his best to make his expression calm, the shock in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Is this your doing?"

Shan Ya stared at the old man warily.

The elder exclaimed, "Congratulations, you are the first to complete the test."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man disappeared.

A gap appeared in the sky, and countless light rain poured down.

Shan Ya bathed in the light rain, her long hair fluttering and her dress dancing.

On the stone steps of Wenxin Path, Shan Ya, who was walking on the right side of Zi Chen, had her own independent image in the Sagely Mountain City. However, no one paid attention to this beautiful girl, so they did not pay much attention to her sudden disappearance. They only felt a little regretful.

Shan Ya disappeared into thin air behind Zi Chen.

"Was she eliminated?"

The She Shan brothers were puzzled. Shan Ya's image also disappeared.

There were 74 images left.

In these images, everyone was still climbing the stairs, and no other abnormalities could be seen.

Lan Gu Meng looked at the endless stone steps and raised her eyebrows slightly. She had been climbing the stairs all day, and even she was impatient.

The old man said the same thing. Naturally, he was mainly trying to dissuade her.

Lan Gu Meng said, "Let's go and see. If I can't take it anymore, I will leave."

The old man nodded. However, this time, he did not move his gaze away. Instead, he continued to stare at Lan Gumeng's back. There was a hint of expectation in his aged eyes, or perhaps it could be said that he was looking forward to it.

Lan Gu Meng took the first step, and countless blue lights suddenly bloomed from her body. Then, a pair of blue wings appeared.

This was the true form of the Heavenly Maiden.

The old man's eyes lit up. Perhaps it was because of the light.

Lan Gu Meng's wings flapped behind her, and her body rose into the air. She did not walk on the stone steps, but flew.

Looking at the blue light in the air, the old man's expression suddenly became excited, and his heart was filled with emotions.

She really came.

With a light flap of her wings, Lan Gu Meng landed on the top of the mountain. This was much easier than she had imagined.

"Congratulations!"

The old man's voice came from behind her. There was an uncontrollable excitement in it.

"Please accept the baptism."

He used respectful words. A rain of light fell from the sky. Lan Gu Meng bathed in the rain of light. Her wings shone with infinite light, and she floated like a fairy.

Looking at this scene, the old man was excited and filled with emotions. However, at the same time, there was a hint of doubt.

One could reach the heavens in a single step, and the other was the Heavenly Maiden. Why were they willing to stand behind an ordinary person?

In his eyes, Zi Chen could not be more ordinary. This was because he did not have any magical powers, nor did he have any extraordinary talent. Let alone reaching the heavens in a single step, he did not even have the necessary level skipping.

How could such an ordinary person have such extraordinary people by his side?

He was puzzled and decided to go and take a look.

At this moment, Zi Chen was already at level 6,555. At this moment, a gust of wind blew from above, and he fell back a hundred levels.

In fact, it was not a gust of wind, but a prop that fell on him. The other party used Fulgurating Shadows.

Because the two people beside Zi Chen had disappeared, the people behind him were worried that Zi Chen would also disappear, so they used a prop in advance.

Zi Chen, who had retreated, continued to climb the stairs. He did not say a word, and his expression did not change.

After about a thousand levels, he suddenly felt his body become heavy, and he felt like he could not move an inch.

It was the prop Mount Tai Crush.

In the eyes of everyone in the Sagely Mountain City, those people were all on the same stairs, but their speed was different.

At this moment, there were people constantly using props in an attempt to get their rankings higher.

Zi Chen, who was originally in the first place, was now in the fifteenth place.

In the twenty-eighth place was a young man in black. No one knew his name. He was just like Zi Chen, a newcomer.

At the same time, he was the only person besides Zi Chen who did not use any props.

He was like a dark horse, quietly making his way into the top 85.

At this moment, he looked at the people in front of him expressionlessly. When he saw Zi Chen, who had been retreating, there was a hint of mockery in his eyes.
