Ye Wushuang did not stop.
The pressure on the last nineteen steps was exponentially greater, surpassing the cumulative force of all the previous steps combined.
At this moment, within Ye Wushuang’s body, the powers of the seven elements—gold, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder, and wind—merged seamlessly with the Myriad Laws, transforming his body into an immovable stone platform firmly rooted to the steps.
Just how formidable was the power that came from fusing these seven elements with the Myriad Laws? This repulsive force hardly affected Ye Wushuang at all. The true strength of a Myriad Laws Realm martial artist lay in their ability to integrate elemental powers; the more elements they mastered, the more proficiently they controlled them, and the more terrifying their strength became.
Ye Wushuang had now reached the nine – hundred and ninetieth step! The final nine steps were within sight. Xu Ziqian had managed to reach the nine – hundred and sixty – ninth step, but by this point, it felt as though a thousand – zhang mountain was pressing down on him. Even a simple step, which would normally be effortless, now required an almost superhuman effort.
“I’ve reached my limit…” Xu Ziqian smiled bitterly. The test of Wen Tianya gauged a martial artist’s ability to condense and control the Myriad Laws. Xu Ziqian had already pushed his power to its peak, fully unleashing the integrated elemental forces, yet it was still not enough. What kind of realm had Ye Wushuang reached? Was he truly a peerless prodigy? Xu Ziqian shook his head in resignation.
Further behind, at around the nine – hundred and twentieth step, Liang Sierui, Xie Xinxin, Chao Tianque, Ke Liangjing, Yuan Tianzong, and the other three had all come to a standstill. They too had reached their limits. Ke Liangjing’s expression darkened as he stared at the figure at the front. It was just a few dozen steps away, yet it might as well have been an impassable chasm.
Yuan Tianzong couldn’t help but sigh in admiration, “To think there’s someone like this in Qingzhou, someone who can outshine even Xu Ziqian. Truly remarkable.”
Wu Jun, the burly man, snorted, “This test at Wen Tianya only assesses a martial artist’s ability to integrate the Myriad Laws with elemental powers. It doesn’t mean he’s more talented than Young Master Xu!”
Yuan Tianzong plopped down on the steps, choosing not to argue. Wu Jun was Xu Ziqian’s loyal follower, and starting a quarrel might lead to a fight.
“Yuan Tianzong, as a genius of the Qiyao Pavilion, do you always fawn over others like this?” Ke Liangjing sneered.
“Yes, I do. Is it really that hard for you to admit when someone is better than you, Ke Liangjing?”
Ke Liangjing’s smile froze. Yuan Tianzong was annoying, but Ye Wushuang was even more so!
Boom…
As they bickered, a thunderous roar echoed from the mountaintop. Immediately, everyone on the steps felt an invisible禁制force descending upon them, immobilizing them where they stood.
“What’s going on?”
“What happened?”
“It seems someone has reached the peak…”
“But why are we sealed?”
Panic spread among the martial artists on the steps.
Ye Wushuang now stood at the summit. Looking down, he saw figures frozen on the steps, each surrounded by a faint cyan glow that held them in place.
At that moment, a figure began to materialize beside Ye Wushuang.
“Congratulations, young man,” a voice said unexpectedly. Standing next to Ye Wushuang was a refined and amiable middle – aged man, slender in build, who nodded approvingly at him.
“Who are you…”
“Xiao Guangling,” the man replied gracefully. “This final region of Bailin Mountain, Wen Tianya, has extremely stringent requirements for martial artists’ cultivation. In the past few hundred years, you are the only one to reach the summit.”
Ye Wushuang clasped his hands in respect but remained silent. He remembered Tianlinzi in Tianlin Ancient City, who also had an air of refinement and tranquility, yet turned out to be a devil in disguise.
“In that case, what rewards does Wen Tianya offer?” Ye Wushuang asked. In the Forbidden Realm, every restricted area held countless opportunities, and he hadn’t climbed to the top just to prove his talent.
“First, there is Celestial Spirit Nourishment.”
Celestial Spirit Nourishment? Ye Wushuang raised an eyebrow. This involved being bathed in extremely pure spiritual energy from heaven and earth, a type of energy far purer than the ordinary spiritual energy martial artists absorbed during cultivation. Infused with various pure heavenly and earthly essences, this Celestial Spirit Nourishment allowed martial artists to easily identify and correct their flaws, facilitating realm breakthroughs and providing long – term benefits for future cultivation.
Looking at the people below, Ye Wushuang asked, “I’m not the only one who can receive this Celestial Spirit Nourishment, right?”
Xiao Guangling smiled, “They can also receive it, but the higher your position, the better the effect. Naturally, it will be most potent for you at the summit.”
As he spoke, Xiao Guangling clenched his fist. Above the mountaintop, a three – legged cauldron emerged, spinning in the void. Inside the cauldron, mist churned violently, as if ready to pour out at any moment.
“What else is there?” Ye Wushuang pressed.
Xiao Guangling opened his palm, revealing ten jade vials, each as thin as a thumb and tightly sealed. Inside each vial was a pill emitting a faint blood – colored glow.
“Creation Restoration Pills!” Ye Wushuang exclaimed.
“You recognize them?” Xiao Guangling was visibly surprised.
Ye Wushuang nodded. “They’re Grade – Four Spirit Pills, extremely effective for Myriad Laws Realm martial artists.”
“Precisely!” Xiao Guangling praised. “The Creation Restoration Pills are refined with Creation Fruits and Sky – Mending Gold as the core ingredients. Although they are Grade – Four pills, many Grade – Five pills pale in comparison!”
Grade – Four Spirit Pills were suitable for Myriad Laws Realm martial artists, while Grade – Five pills were for Return to Origin Realm powerhouses. However, the Creation Restoration Pills were even more valuable than ordinary Grade – Five pills and were extremely rare on the market. These pills could enhance the talent of Myriad Laws Realm martial artists—a remarkable feat, considering that a martial artist’s talent was usually innate and difficult to change.
There were ten Creation Restoration Pills in total. Ye Wushuang reached out, and the ten jade vials landed in his palm. He opened one vial, and the pill rolled out, releasing a rich, fragrant aroma that filled the air. These were indeed genuine Creation Restoration Pills.
