‘Death would be better than being imprisoned in there.’ Duan Ling Tian could not help but shudder when he thought about the inner disciples imprisoned in the Heavenly Stairs. It was likely that most of them had lost their sanity.
At this time, Tang Wu Yan said, “There are many of them who took their own lives since they could not stand being in there.”
“If the participants can’t defeat the prisoners, doesn’t it mean the participants will be killed by the prisoners?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
“This is very unlikely to happen unless the participants are reckless. I’m sure you noticed by now that participants are given tokens before they climb the stairs. Those are called the Heavenly Stairs Tokens. If participants can’t defeat their opponents, they can crush the token and be transported out. The chances are very low for participants to be unable to crush the tokens in time,” Tang Wu Yan explained.
Duan Ling Tian learned a lot after listening to Tang Wu Yan. As it turned out, the tokens not only kept track of time but functioned like a life-saving token as well.
At this time, the young man who had made a bet with Hu Jun had already climbed up to the third part of the stairs while Hu Jun looked at the stairs intently, waiting for the results.
Meanwhile, the male inner disciples looked at Duan Ling Tian enviously. The most beautiful female disciple in the Hidden Fog Sect who was usually aloof and taciturn was conversing with him for so long, after all.
“Among the gods, how high do they usually climb?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
The Heavenly Stairs had 19 steps in total. The steps below the 12th step flashed with spots of light, but the steps above were dim. On the 11th step, there was only one spot of light.
“During the previous Heavenly Stairs Battle, three gods managed to climb to the eighth step. One of them was Qi Yu, the inner disciple who has been challenging you over the past few months,” Tang Wu Yan replied, “Among the three, the person who stayed on the eighth step the longest was considered the winner. Although Qi Yu performed well, he was only ranked third.”
Based on this, Duan Ling Tian could infer that the spots of light from the ninth step onward represented the Kings of Gods since the top god only climbed to the eighth step.
“The rankings will be shown above the stairs. The sect will reward those who rank at the top as you already know,” Tang Wu Yan said.
Duan Ling Tian was rather excited to challenge the Heavenly Stairs after listening to Tang Wu Yan’s explanation.
At this time, the flashing spot of light on the third step suddenly vanished.
Soon after, the young man appeared and returned the divine rocks back to Hu Jun. Then, he said furiously, “D*mn it! I was so close to climbing past the third step, but that fellow suddenly fought as though his life depended on it nearing the end! Whatever! So what if he won? He’ll die soon enough living in such a place.
“Stop talking nonsense. A loss is a loss. Everyone only has one chance to participate in the Heavenly Stairs Battle. You’ll have to wait for the next round to redeem yourself,” Hu Jun said, grinning ear to ear now that he regained the divine rocks he had lost earlier.
At this time, someone exclaimed, “Look! Senior Brother Qi Yu has reached the eighth step!”
Duan Ling Tian instinctively looked up and saw a spot of light flashing on the eighth step.
“Senior Brother Qi Yu has reduced the time he spent on the seventh step!”
‘Qi Yu?’ Duan Ling Tian smirked. Although he had yet to meet Qi Yu, he knew Qi Yu was sent by Tu Feng to trouble him. That was the reason Qi Yu had persistently challenged him over the past few months.
…
After a while, it was finally Duan Ling Tian’s turn.
“Elder, I’m Duan Ling Tian, an intermediate god. I’m here to challenge the Heavenly Stairs,” Duan Ling Tian said to the old man in front of the Heavenly Stairs.
This was the standard greeting of the disciples participating in the Heavenly Stairs Battle. Usually, the old man did not pay much attention to the greetings, but this time, he looked in surprise when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s name. He asked, “You’re Duan Ling Tian from Skywind City’s Hidden Fog Academy?”
“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.
“After hearing so much about you, I finally got to meet you. Good luck,” the old man said with a rare smile on his face as he handed a token to Duan Ling Tian, “This token will be activated once you channel your Divine Energy into it. If you want to leave, send a strand of your Divine Consciousness into it.”
“Thank you, elder,” Duan Ling Tian said before he entered the Heavenly Stairs.
Many of the inner disciples began to focus their attention on Duan Ling Tian again when they saw the elder’s attitude toward Duan Ling Tian.
“That’s that monstrous talent from Skywind City’s Hidden Fog Academy!”
“No wonder Tang Wu Yan treats him differently!”
“What nonsense are you spouting? I don’t think our sect’s goddess treated him any differently!”
“That’s right. Our goddess stood quite a distance from him so I’m sure they’re just ordinary acquaintances.”
Duan Ling Tian was not around to hear the conversations, but Tang Wu Yan heard it all. Nonetheless, she did not pay attention to the whispers. Instead, a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes as she looked at the flashing spot of light that represented Duan Ling Tian.
In the beginning, she had been indifferent toward Duan Ling Tian, but she felt like her ego had been hit when Duan Ling Tian ignored her. When she was showing him around the sect, he did not pay much attention to her at all. It was as though he did not see her beauty at all. She was someone who took great pride in her beauty. With his indifference, her self-esteem naturally suffered a blow. She was one of those women who ignored men who were interested in them and were interested in men who ignored them.
…
Duan Ling Tian was naturally unaware of the messy thoughts in Tang Wu Yan’s mind. He had just entered the first small realm. It was dark and resembled the space in spatial rings.
Swoosh!
A flame suddenly lit up.
Duan Ling Tian saw a sloppy figure in front of him. They were standing in the middle of a barren valley at this moment, across from each other. Beyond the valley was only darkness since the realm was isolated.
“The Heavenly Stairs Battle has started again?” The sloppy young man who was sitting cross-legged rose to his feet slowly. His body burned with flames from the law of fire.
“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.
“You can attack first,” the young man said.
“You’re no match for me,” Duan Ling Tian bluntly said.
Duan Ling Tian had already used his Divine Consciousness to probe his opponent. He discovered his opponent was just an intermediate god. Moreover, his opponent had yet to comprehend all the profundities from the law of fire to the mastery stage.
“You’re just an intermediate god like me. How can you be so confident when we’ve yet to fight?” the young man said hoarsely.
Duan Ling Tian shook his head. The air seemed to freeze as he cast the profundities from the law of space.
Silence descended immediately.
After a moment, the young man said, “I… I surrender..”
