Chapter 625: Chapter 328: Divine Image Reappears, Unstoppable Force_2
Even knowing this, they wouldn’t spend much time thinking about it.
Because by this time, they had stepped over too many ladders, and they all believed that they had mastered the mysteries contained above very clearly.
Even, in order to wholeheartedly break through the limits and climb higher, almost everyone would block that ranking information in their Sea of Consciousness, only occasionally checking it during rest periods.
Lu Yun was no exception, only daring to check the Trial Heavenly Ladder rankings during his break time.
An hour later, five thousand giant elephants roared simultaneously, and Lu Yun opened his eyes with satisfaction.
“Up to now, 15,000 elephant microparticles have awakened. With such efficiency, it exceeds my previous six months of hard cultivation. This Trial Heavenly Ladder is truly my opportunity site.”
“But this is just the beginning…”
Lu Yun suddenly stood up, and a terrible force surged from his flesh, violently colliding with the oncoming pressure and giving off a booming sound.
“He’s moving, he’s moving, look quickly!!”
“The five thousand and first step…no, it’s already the five thousand and second step…still not right, he’s advancing quickly.”
“Amazing, he can still maintain the terrifying speed from before even after 5,000 steps.”
“Haha, interesting, it seems that the people ahead are starting to feel the pressure.”
As Lu Yun made this move, not only did the people in the square become active, but even those who were resting on the Trial Heavenly Ladder immediately ended their rest and began charging again.
Only those ranked higher, after a glance, just slightly frowned and didn’t pay much attention.
After all, at this stage, it’s too difficult to make a breakthrough.
Otherwise, why is it that up to now only nine people have broken through the sixth tribulation and entered above the 6,000 steps?
So in their view, it wouldn’t be so easy for Lu Yun to catch up with them.
But the result was different from their expectations. Lu Yun’s speed was still very fast, almost one step every two breaths, with hardly any rest in between.
Murong Siqi was extremely tired and almost reached her limit. If it weren’t for a strong willpower, she wouldn’t have been able to reach the 5,715th step.
Compared to cultivation realm, her physique was relatively weak and the restriction on her body from the Trial Heavenly Ladder had almost disappeared.
Even so, she still felt that she had almost reached her limit and feared that she couldn’t hold on much longer.
However, she didn’t want to give up just like that and wanted to continue breaking through her own limits.
Before that, she needed to take a little break to prepare for her final sprint.
Taking advantage of this break, she checked the Trial Heavenly Ladder rankings with a hint of consciousness.
Trial Heavenly Ladder Rankings:
First place, Zhang Henshui, 6,532nd step.
Second place, Yuan Fei, 6,321st step.
Third place, Ye Wang, 6,218th step.
Fourth place, Wuchen, 6,205th step.
Fifth place, Su Mo, 6,156th step
…
Ninth place, Qin Ziyang, 6,023rd step.
…
Tenth place, Mo Su, 5,991st step.
Eleventh place, Kun Wu, 5,990th step.
…
Thirty-seventh, Murong Siqi, ranked on the 5,715th step.
“Ranked thirty-seventh, not bad…” Murong Siqi seemed rather satisfied and continued to look down.
She only casually glanced at those ranked lower than her, not deeming it important.
However, when she saw Lu Yun, who had entered the top fifty and was only a few rankings away from her, her beautiful eyes flashed with imperceptible surprise.
Ever since the first stage of trials, she had been paying keen attention to Lu Yun, who had entered the top one hundred with a late Golden Core Realm, but before he made a breakthrough, he had been ranked over ten-thousandth, which puzzled her.
After considering Lu Yun’s realm, she stopped paying attention to him and concentrated on climbing the Heavenly Ladder.
Now, taking another look, Lu Yun had unexpectedly rushed into the top fifty and was about to catch up to her, causing a strong shock in her heart.
Hence, she continued to observe and found that Lu Yun was advancing at a rapid pace, making her even more astonished.
“Does he have no limits here, keeping up with such a fast pace?” Murong Siqi bit her red lips, her astonishment mixed with a strong curiosity.
In contrast to Murong Siqi’s astonishment and curiosity, the others had various expressions.
“I knew Junior Brother Lu was not that simple.”
Gongsun Zhonghong, who was currently sitting cross-legged on the 5,739th step, felt relieved when he saw Lu Yun breaking into the top fifty with his ranking continuously rising.
At the same time, Yuan Yao, who was on the 5,899th step also divided a bit of her attention to check the rankings. She showed an expression of “as expected.”
“Judging by his current state, he might be able to enter the top ten soon…” Yuan Yao’s watery eyes flashed with a touch of laughter.
Under the silver moonlight, Lu Yun did not stop. Feeling the constantly rising pressure, his body contained a powerful force as he charged forward.
Breaking through countless limits, he felt the shackles on him getting weaker and the sealed power within him being released. In just a short while, he crossed over a dozen steps, overtaking Murong Siqi in one fell swoop.
Thirty or so breaths later, Yuan Yao, who ranked twentieth, was surpassed as Lu Yun entered the top twenty for the first time.
Next, he would break through the sixth chasm and enter the top ten.
Whether they were those who failed the trial or the trialists who persisted on the Trial Heavenly Ladder, at this moment, they were all focused on the same person.
Unfortunately, they could only see the changing number of steps by Lu Yun’s name on the leaderboard.
At this moment, Lu Yun’s silhouette was bathed in the moonlight, exuding a faint golden divine power.
Without any pause, he forcefully broke through the ever-increasing pressure on the Trial Heavenly Ladder.
As his collisions with the Heavenly Ladder’s pressure became increasingly violent, the elephant’s roar within him grew louder.
The gradually resurging divine power condensed into a golden phantom behind him. If one looked closely, they could clearly sense an arrogant and untamed golden divine elephant, filled with overbearing and terrifying breath.
“That is…the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength…” Upon seeing the golden phantom of the divine elephant condensed by Lu Yun’s divine power, both Heng Chong Dominator and the middle-aged man in green exclaimed in shock, their eyes flickering with astonishment.
After a brief period of shock, the middle-aged man in green murmured, “So Yuan Guang Immortal has passed this unparalleled technique to him.”
A look of enlightenment appeared on Heng Chong’s face: “So he cultivates the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength. No wonder he sensed the hidden opportunities in the Trial Heavenly Ladder from the beginning.”
Half a moment later, Lu Yun had charged through dozens of steps in a row. As he stood on the 5,999th step, pressure from the Trial Heavenly Ladder roared and fell upon him, as if a massive mountain was pressing down on his body.
However, at this moment, the bright moon in the sky shone brilliantly, and moonlight poured down.
Bathed in the silver-white moonlight, Lu Yun’s robe fluttered. With a forceful step forward with his right foot, the divine power surged throughout his body and the golden divine elephant roared towards the sky.
As he took that step, the other two trialists who were similarly preparing to break through the chasm seemed to have a clue and subconsciously glanced in Lu Yun’s direction.
Mo Su stared intensely at the golden divine elephant phantom behind Lu Yun, his heart thumping fiercely. For a moment, he felt a sense of terror. Witnessing the roaring golden divine elephant with its overwhelming divine power and boundless fighting intent, he nearly faltered, almost being crushed by the surging pressure from the Trial Heavenly Ladder.
Kun Wu saw Lu Yun, who was brimming with divine power, and stared blankly for a moment. Wasn’t that guy just recently entering the top hundred? How did he catch up so quickly?
He initially thought that entering the top hundred was Lu Yun’s limit, so he had never taken it seriously.
However, looking at it now, the top hundred was nowhere near Lu Yun’s limit. He obviously possessed the strength to be in the top ten or even challenge the top five.
Otherwise, how could he have advanced from the beginning of the 5,000th step to the 5,999th step in less than two hours?
