Chapter 3840

Walking on the stone steps, what Zi Chen saw was not a complete set of stone steps, but various places.

For example, a sea of flowers, a lake.

High mountains, flowing water, clear skies, and white clouds.

His walk was not boring at all, nor was it difficult. It was as if he was sightseeing, admiring the flowers and the moon.

Occasionally, there would be wind, rain, and pressure from an unknown place that would fall on his body, making him feel a little embarrassed, but that was all.

As Zi Chen walked, his mind was empty. It was as if he had forgotten his identity and that this was a test. He was like a true traveler, looking at the scenery along the way. He enjoyed everything he saw along the way, but at the same time, he silently endured the disasters that appeared along the way.

The old man silently followed, but still did not find anything special about Zi Chen.

Until a certain moment, Zi Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks.

The old man was startled. Was he going to give up?

Zi Chen turned around and said, "Why are you following me?"

There was no one in front of Zi Chen. He did not know who he was talking to, or if he was talking to the air.

"I can't see you, but I can feel your presence." Zi Chen continued, "You're right behind me, following me."

The old man's voice sounded, "This is a path without a top. I'm here to advise you to give up."

"Mm, I understand."

Zi Chen nodded and continued to climb to the top.

"You're not giving up?" The old man's voice sounded again.

"Do you believe it?" Zi Chen suddenly asked.

"What?" The old man was puzzled.

"Do you believe a path without a top?"

Zi Chen calmly said, "If it's not an illusion array, if it's a real place, as long as I keep walking, I'll definitely reach the end."

The old man looked at Zi Chen with a strange gaze. This was not an illusion array, but the path did not have a top. He was not lying.

The old man smiled, "If you say the stone steps have a top, then where is the top?

You've been walking for so long, have you seen it? "

Zi Chen smiled and said, "The peak of the mountain is right below us."

"What?" The old man was stunned.

Zi Chen took a step forward and disappeared from his original spot.

He did not appear at the top of the mountain, but at the top of the stone steps, or rather, his consciousness had returned from the space where the old man was.

In the world where Zi Chen had disappeared, it was raining cats and dogs. The rain was composed of pure energy.

"Did he walk the Wenxin Road?"

When the old man saw this, his expression changed drastically.

On the stone steps, Zi Chen, who was walking in the middle, suddenly emitted a powerful aura.

This aura spread out like a storm. Some of the existences closer to Zi Chen immediately retreated. There were even a few existences that were bitterly holding on, but they disappeared under this storm.

There were less than twenty people left.

Zi Chen had advanced once again.

His vision regained clarity, and he saw that there were not many people left in the surroundings. At this moment, everyone was looking at him warily.

Zi Chen just glanced at them and continued to walk forward. His steps were light and relaxed.

The person next to him seemed to feel a strong threat from Zi Chen and immediately used an item.

The light from the item fell on Zi Chen's body.

Zi Chen felt the pressure.

Immediately after, the others also reacted and used their items on Zi Chen. Clearly, they wanted to eliminate him first.

Countless lights fell on Zi Chen's body, causing Zi Chen to feel a great deal of pressure.

In the outside world, the She Shan brothers saw this scene and cursed at how shameless they were.

Just as Zi Chen was about to be eliminated, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the sky and fell on Zi Chen's body, dispelling all of the negative energy. Immediately after, rain fell from the beam of light.

It was a rain of energy that irrigated Zi Chen's body and nourished his soul.

His state of mind seemed to have been cleansed by a layer of mysterious energy, and he felt a sense of cleanliness and ease.

This was the reward for successfully walking the Wenxin Road. Unfortunately, very few people knew about it.

Many people were shouting that it was cheating because this was almost an invincible item.

Zi Chen continued to walk forward. The light rain followed Zi Chen and fell only for him.

The others around him were shocked by this scene.

Many people were unwilling to give up and tried to use their items again. However, when they fell on Zi Chen, it was useless.

At this moment, Zi Chen seemed to be blessed with an invincible defensive light shield that could ignore all the attacks from the items.

The attacks that fell on Zi Chen gradually decreased. It was not that everyone felt that their attacks were ineffective and gave up, but the number of people around him kept decreasing, one after another.

Soon, the top ten were revealed.

Then, the top five were revealed.

The whole city was in an uproar because there were too many dark horses.

Those who had high hopes of getting a good ranking were eliminated one by one.

In the end, only Zi Chen and a young man in black were left.

Almost no one knew the young man's name, yet he had reached second place.

Logically speaking, the nameless young man should be happy. However, his face was extremely gloomy at the moment. His eyes were fixed on Zi Chen's back.

At this moment, in a certain direction of the Sagely Mountain City, many people were paying attention to the young man. They all looked very nervous.

Nobody knew that a huge sum of Blue Star Dollars had been bet on the young man in black when the betting was about to end.

The young man's name was Luo Cang. Very few people knew him, yet the people who had placed their bets on Luo Cang to become first place.

If Luo Cang really became first place, the Sagely Mountain Casino would have to pay a heavy price, even if they did not go bankrupt.

Among these people, there was a familiar face. It was Sheng Lun, who had not even made it into the top 85.

He was also paying attention to Luo Cang.

If he had bet a huge amount on himself to become first place, then the amount he had bet on Luo Cang was more than 65 times what he had bet on him.

At this moment, his gaze was very cold. He did not expect that the fellow who made him feel uncomfortable the moment he saw him would actually be able to reach this step.

*****

*****

The rain of light on Zi Chen's body was disappearing.

Luo Cang's eyes flashed coldly as he started to use his tools.

Sacred Talismans landed on Zi Chen's body one after another.

The first one was the Shape-Shifting Technique. Zi Chen and Luo Cang's positions changed. Then, various Gravity Sacred Talismans appeared, causing Zi Chen's movements to become extremely slow.

However, his expression did not change in the slightest.

After all, these tools were just external objects. Although they would affect him, they would not be enough to eliminate him.

The gravitational force pressed on his body, causing him to move forward slowly. The distance between him and Luo Cang was getting wider and wider, but he did not care at all.

As the negative energy around him disappeared, Zi Chen's speed recovered and he once again closed the distance between him and Luo Cang.

Soon, the two of them were side by side, and Zi Chen showed signs of overtaking him.

"Why do you have to do this?"

Luo Cang looked at Zi Chen and said, "It's not easy for you to make it this far. You can leave now."

Zi Chen ignored Luo Cang.

Looking at Zi Chen who was moving forward, Luo Cang said again, "If you lack blue crystal coins, you can tell me. No one will give you any benefits if you work so hard.

Besides, the casino has long been closed, so you can't place any bets. "

Zi Chen still ignored Luo Cang.

"You're courting death!"
