Originally, Yuan Tianzong, who was at the end, somehow took a few steps backward just now.
But while the several people were talking.
Yuan Tianzong actually started to take steps again…
And his speed was a bit faster than that of Xie Yunyao and Cao Wenbin!
Although all three of them were moving extremely slowly now, wriggling forward bit by bit like snails, Yuan Tianzong’s wriggling speed was steadily increasing!
“Am I having an illusion?”
At this moment, Liang Sier揉了揉眼睛, and said in surprise, “Why do I feel that Yuan Tianzong… seems to be faster than before?”
Xie Xinxin looked over, and her face turned ugly.
Chao Hongye, Huan Tianxin, Xu Ziqian, and Wu Jun also looked over, all of them being extremely astonished.
It wasn’t Liang Sier’s illusion!
It was real!
Yuan Tianzong’s speed was truly increasing. Although it was still very slow, it was clearly faster than Xie Yunyao and Cao Wenbing.
How was this possible?
They all had experienced the pressure. They clearly understood that the closer they got to the end, the slower they would be.
Was he hiding his strength?
Impossible!
The pressure on that path would make it impossible for anyone to reserve their physical strength.
Gradually.
Yuan Tianzong overtook Cao Wenbing.
Then.
His body was on a par with Xie Yunyao.
At this moment, there was only a zhang (about 3.3 meters) away from the edge of the stone steps.
“Yunyao!!!”
Xie Xinxin suddenly shouted, “Hurry up, hurry up!”
Xie Yunyao was now drenched in sweat, and his mind was a bit unclear. But upon hearing Xie Xinxin’s voice, his misty eyes glanced to the other side.
Was that… Yuan Tianzong?
Was he catching up?
How could this be!
If Yuan Tianzong caught up, then it would be him who would die!
He wanted to speed up, but… he simply couldn’t. He had already reached his limit!
Why?
Why could Yuan Tianzong speed up at this point?
Amid the astonished or puzzled gazes of the several people, Yuan Tianzong overtook Xie Yunyao and finally stepped onto the stone steps.
Bang!!!
His body fell to the ground, but with his last breath, he glanced at Ye Wushuang.
That glance was full of gratitude.
This also made Yuan Tianzong extremely grateful. He was glad that when he first met Ye Wushuang, he had seen Ye Wushuang’s strength in dealing with Qian Guxing and had the intention to befriend him.
Otherwise, why would Ye Wushuang help him?
He, Xie Yunyao, and Cao Wenbin – Ye Wushuang wouldn’t care which one of them died.
But now, Ye Wushuang had helped him!
Silent gratitude pervaded in his heart.
He knew that if he thanked Ye Wushuang face to face now, it would make Xie Xinxin hate Ye Wushuang, which would instead harm Ye Wushuang.
This matter was only known to him and Ye Wushuang.
Ye Wushuang, Huan Tianxin, Xu Ziqian, Wu Jun, Liang Sier, Xie Xinxin, Chao Hongye, and Yuan Tianzong.
These eight people reached the midpoint stone platform.
At this moment, the laws of heaven and earth on the ten paths had vanished without a trace.
Xie Yunyao and Cao Wenbin could no longer hold on and fell to the ground in a sorry state.
It was only a zhang away from the midpoint stone steps!
Xie Yunyao clenched his fists, and hatred welled up in his heart.
“Yunyao!”
At this moment, Xie Xinxin wanted to step down the stone steps to support Xie Yunyao.
Buzz…
At the same time, a buzzing sound rang out around the stone platform.
A light curtain surrounded the stone platform, and the figures of the eight people were bound within it.
“Senior!”
Xie Xinxin looked up at the empty air. Although there was no figure of Qingmuya there, Xie Xinxin still shouted, “Senior, the eight of us will continue to break through the barriers. Please spare Xie Yunyao!”
A distant and indistinct voice slowly sounded, “The rules are the rules!”
There was a distance of more than a zhang from the corpse.
Suddenly, a column of thunder condensed on the bodies of Xie Yunyao and Cao Wenbin and directly bombarded over.
Dong!!!
A dull explosion sounded.
The two figures were directly blasted into pieces by the thunder at this moment.
The rules were the rules.
There were twelve geniuses who entered the Heavenly Palace Secret Scroll.
During the previous individual tests, Shi Guangren and Wen Zhen lost their lives.
And now, Xie Yunyao and Cao Wenbin had died.
Only eight people were left!
Several people couldn’t help but recall the words that Qingmuya had said before.
“You don’t have to be too sad.”
“Because, next, half of the ten of you may still die!”
Now, two people had already died.
What would happen next?
Xie Xinxin saw Xie Yunyao being blasted apart in front of her and angrily said, “I want to quit!”
The voice of Qingmuya sounded again, indifferently saying, “Quitting means dying immediately.”
Upon hearing this, Xie Xinxin’s expression froze.
Around the stone platform, light rose, and the eight people disappeared from this place.
The next moment.
Eight figures appeared on a high mountain.
Half of this high mountain had been cut off.
If one looked at it from a distance, it was like a hundred-zhang mountain that had been directly cut in half at the waist, leaving only the lower half from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain.
And the eight people were now on the circular platform on the halfway up the mountain.
On the platform with a diameter of three hundred zhang, at a glance, it was paved with blue stones and was very flat.
The figure of Qingmuya appeared at this moment.
From the very beginning until now, four people had died. When everyone saw Qingmuya appear, they showed no particular expression.
This guy was more like a soul-reaping ghost!
“If you want to obtain the opportunity, how can it be that simple?”
Qingmuya said calmly, “What I have left behind may change your entire life.”
“Moreover, you were willing to take the risk and enter the Heavenly Palace Secret Scroll because you were blocked by the Red God Insects in my bedroom, right?”
Upon hearing this, several people looked at Qingmuya in astonishment.
This guy!
Did he know everything?
