Chapter 80 The Summit of the Heavenly Ladder! (4)
The Heavenly Ladder to Fenglinkong came to an end.
The exclamations of surprise, regret, and praise gradually faded away.
But no one left.
Because at this moment, there was still one person remaining on the ladder.
Characters woven from cyan stood out prominently in the air.
First place, sixty-first step of the Heavenly Ladder, Hongxiu, invited by Wentian Academy.
As is widely known, those invited by Wentian Academy are all people with no background.
Even the woman did not accumulate any.
Only the first level of mortal body.
But they did not stop.
An indomitable will drove her.
Climb upwards.
At the sixty-second step, his eyes were bloodshot, blurring his vision.
At the sixty-third step, with his hands on the ground, he could no longer stand.
At the sixty-fourth step, she lay quietly on the steps, blood streaming from her mouth and nose, no longer moving.
In those short two or three minutes.
Everyone stopped talking at the same time.
Not a sound was heard at the scene.
He simply watched the woman quietly.
Some people smiled slightly, enjoying the fruit and watching the fun.
Some people empathized and silently cheered each other on.
Some other candidates, who were also taking the entrance exam, felt a lump in their throat.
After observing and lingering for a moment.
He turned away in shame.
Because at that moment, they, along with Feng Linkong, also understood something.
They actually had the opportunity to climb even higher.
but!
But none of them were able to do it.
The reasons are largely the same.
...
"Elder Liu, please make a move. Her aura is already very weak."
Chen Ziang sighed.
He felt some sympathy for the girl who had fallen on the steps.
He didn't understand the reason for his persistence.
But he admired that kind of persistence!
If Ji Ning's personality is like this, then the younger generation will probably be far behind him.
Liu Qingyun glanced at Han Tian, and after receiving Han Tian's obedience.
A flash of blue light.
His figure appeared on one side of the sky ladder.
A blue aura swirled around his arms.
Just as they were about to lend a helping hand.
The pupils shrank suddenly.
It seemed like it sensed something.
They wanted to leave immediately, but it was too late.
A terrifying pressure emanating from the spatial dimension firmly suppressed Liu Qingyun's figure.
This rendered it completely unable to move an inch.
Just as they were about to exclaim in surprise, "Who dares to be so audacious as to cause trouble at the grand event of Wentian Academy?"
But he found that he couldn't even speak.
How can this be?
He was a ninth-level Saint Body cultivator. Not to mention those of the same level, even those at the peak of the Saint Body cultivator could not achieve such a level of interference by using some soul techniques.
Dean level...
However, this overwhelming suppression seems to be all show and no substance.
It did not cause any real harm to me.
I just want to confine myself.
Just as he was wondering what was going on, a calm yet powerful male voice came from behind him.
"Mr. Liu, please forgive me for not addressing you this way for now."
"Let's not bother her for now. I'll take responsibility if anything happens."
After saying that, he released Liu Qingyun from his restraints.
This was one of the cultivation techniques and soul arts that Ji Ning had been searching for, and which were widely applicable to him.
Imprisoning Heaven Hand.
A superior-grade martial arts technique at the level of a hegemon.
The name is concise and to the point.
The effect is straightforward.
It can restrict the other person's movements, preventing them from making any actions, including blinking.
As for why this seemingly simple technique is classified as a top-tier overlord-level skill.
After all, any cultivation technique or soul art that is just one step away from the Saint Body level will not have only a single function.
The functions of the Imprisoning Heaven Hand are undoubtedly too monotonous compared to normal overlord-level techniques.
It is because the Imprisoning Heaven Hand can proceed in this direction.
This is also something that Gu Yun valued.
In other words, as long as you have enough energy, it can be an area-of-effect (AoE) skill.
Normally, it is impossible to perform multiple soul techniques in parallel, but the Imprisoning Heaven Hand breaks this rule.
Liu Qingyun observed the man in black who had appeared to his side.
At first glance, I was slightly surprised by the man's youthful appearance.
But then I realized that the appearance and age of a Saint Body expert could no longer be considered together.
So I stretched my muscles and bones a bit.
It seems to be getting used to this body that it no longer belongs to itself just a few minutes ago.
He asked in confusion
"And who are you? And what brings you here today...?"
"He's the devil who recently allied with the Ji family. Old Liu, don't you pay attention to the hot topics in the capital? Hahaha."
A familiar voice came from my ears.
Liu Qingyun's heart, which had been pounding, instantly settled, and his thoughts became clear.
He bowed slightly to Han Tian, jokingly agreeing with him.
"Professor Han, you have to lighten my workload. The academy has too many things to deal with every day. How can I have time to listen to the hot topics that are happening in the capital recently?"
"Not to mention the entrance exam for the centennial celebration."
"I'm incredibly busy every day."
When Han Tian noticed Liu Qingyun's unusual behavior.
He immediately came to her side.
However, seeing that Gu Yun meant no harm, they did not intervene.
Han Tian pointed at Liu Qingyun and laughed.
"You're waiting for me here!"
"Alright, alright, I'll keep an eye on things for the next couple of days. Contact me anytime if you need anything."
Turning to face Gu Yun, he saw that Gu Yun was already greeting him with clasped hands.
"Mr. Han."
Han Tian stroked his beard and nodded slightly.
It is indeed as rumored.
This demon is different.
"The woman below must be your friend."
"Her breath was already very weak."
"His life hung by a thread."
"Why did you stop Lao Liu from providing assistance?"
Gu Yun did not hide his thoughts, since Hongxiu had decided to enter Wentian Academy.
So the dean and vice dean are actually a good point to utilize.
Even if we don't know it now, we will definitely find out in the future.
It was impossible for him to keep Hongxiu by his side.
It's also impossible for him to stay at Wentian Academy with her.
"Elder Han, Hongxiu is cultivating the Nine Revolutions Reversal Death Heart Sutra."
Liu Qingyun and Han Tian suddenly realized what was going on.
Han Tian looked at the woman in front of him again, his eyes softening with a hint of approval.
It turns out that she wanted to use this Heavenly Ladder to force herself into a life-or-death situation through extreme mental pressure.
Such courage at such a young age.
Surviving adversity leads to a deeper understanding of life and death.
A shared thought arose in their minds.
This child has an excellent character.
It's a good piece of material.
after all.
The Nine-Turn Reversal Death Heart Sutra is a mental technique for defying fate.
Without a will that transcends that of ordinary people.
They can't even meet the basic requirements for cultivation.
Gu Yun turned his back to the two of them and quietly looked at Hongxiu.
"Please go back, sir. It's alright. I'll take care of things here."
...
Within the spiritual world.
Red sleeves and bare feet tread on the coastal sand, before which lies a dark and boundless sea.
It's like the end of death.
She seemed unaware of anything, her eyes lifeless.
He stumbled and staggered as he made his way into the depths of the sea.
The icy seawater relentlessly rose little by little from our feet.
Continue until the legs are covered.
It spreads up to the waist.
It engulfed the entire body.
Even though the oppressive chill was pressing down on my whole body.
Even when the shadow of death has already enveloped the soul.
Hongxiu's expression remained unmoved.
It was deathly still.
