Chapter 619: Chapter 325: Top 100 Points, Trial Heavenly Stair_2
“But the most unbelievable thing is Lu Yun. He made it into the top hundred in the late stage of the Golden Body Realm, surpassing 90% of those in the Heavenly Human Realm.”
…
Amidst the surrounding chatter, Lu Yun found Nangong Rui and his companion. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
“Junior Brother Lu, your performance really shocked me! Ranked 98th, unbelievable!” As soon as Lu Yun approached, Nangong Rui shouted, his face showing extreme excitement.
Gongsun Zhonghong seemed more composed, giving a faint smile and saying, “Junior Brother Lu, congratulations.”
“I’m nowhere near Senior Brother Gongsun,” Lu Yun said modestly.
Gongsun Zhonghong was one of the forty-three who managed to pass through the trial space this time and was ranked 32nd, which proved his strength.
As for Nangong Rui, his performance was mediocre, ranking 5,320th.
Considering his cultivation at the peak of the Golden Core Realm, this rank was neither impressive nor terrible.
“Lu Yun, congratulations.”
“Junior Brother Lu, congrats!”
“Congratulations!”
Several Heavenly Prides from the Desolate Origin World, who were not so familiar with Lu Yun, also congratulated him with smiles.
Not to mention Lu Yun’s current achievements, which give him the opportunity to become an official disciple with a boundless future.
He was usually approachable and had good relationships with others, so it didn’t take long for many people to come and congratulate him.
Wuchen and Yuan Yao from afar, while not approaching, still gave a slight nod to Lu Yun.
Such scenes were happening all over the central square.
But this bustling atmosphere didn’t last long.
“Very well, the first stage of the trial is over. The second stage of the trial, testing physical strength and willpower, now begins.”
As his voice fell, Heng Chong Dominator waved his sleeve, and the many Heavenly Prides in the central square felt the earth shake beneath their feet. Then, they found themselves in a strange environment.
An endless land with no boundaries in sight.
A deep blue sky extending infinitely.
However, as everyone appeared, the sky suddenly darkened. Roaring thunder shook the heavens and the earth, and everyone looked up.
They saw that the dark sky was torn open, releasing golden light, followed by the appearance of golden steps extending down from the sky to the ground.
On both sides of the golden steps were endless spatial rifts with chaotic flows like sweeping winds.
At the same time, an indescribable pressure emanated from the golden steps, overwhelming like a surging tide. Some people turned pale and unconsciously stepped back.
After the heavenly phenomenon ended, a message appeared in everyone’s minds.
Trial Participant: Lu Yun (Desolate Origin World)
Points: 94,310
Rank: 98th
Realm: Late-stage Golden Core Realm
Trial Heavenly Stair: The Heavenly Stair carries an oppressive force; the higher one goes, the greater the pressure. The rules suppress the trialist’s physical strength and cultivation, but breaking one’s limits can gradually unlock physical strength.
There are 10,008 steps on the Heavenly Stair. Climbing each step grants ten points, accumulating up to 100,080 points at most.
Note: The trial ends after three days, regardless of the result.
Below is the leaderboard for trial participants:

Trial Heavenly Stair Rankings:
“As expected, both my physical strength and cultivation are sealed. What a terrifying method.” After subsequently feeling like an ordinary person, Lu Yun thought, “But there’s limited time, so I need to hurry for the Trial Heavenly Stair.”
In an instant, Lu Yun rushed toward the Heavenly Stair venting wild winds and radiating oppressive force.
Many people had the same idea as Lu Yun, rushing to the Heavenly Stair right away.
There were 10,008 steps on the Heavenly Stair, which stretched across the sky. About ten miles separated the left and right sides, so even as more than two million people ascended simultaneously, it didn’t feel too crowded.
All of their physical strength and cultivation were suppressed by the rules in place and thus started on even footing.
Each step on the Heavenly Stair exuded a more substantial oppressive force than the last, and by breaking their limits, they could gradually release their physical strength.
These limits concerned not only their physical endurance but also their willpower.
People had different levels of willpower and limits, and as they climbed higher on the Heavenly Stair, some would fall behind.
A figure, like a rainbow, raced across the Heavenly Stair, leading the crowd.
This person was Zhang Henshui.
Although his physical strength was not as good as Lu Yun’s, when it came to willpower, he was second only to the best.
Even if the rules here sealed their physical strength, and the endless oppressive force rushed at them like a torrent, nothing could stop his strides.
He turned into wind and lightning as he sprinted across—
As the powerful oppression swept over, both the physical body and spirit felt immense pain.
However, the pain was insignificant compared to what he had experienced and endured before.
Breaking through the limits of pain continuously, his physical strength was constantly recovering, maintaining his speed all the while.
Trial Heavenly Stair Rankings:
First place, Zhang Henshui, 135th step.
Second place, Yuan Fei, 121st step.
Third place, Ye Wang, 120th step.
…
Fifty-first place, Lu Yun, 109th step.
Seeing that he was only ranked twelfth, a trace of surprise flashed in Lu Yun’s eyes.
He could be sure that among the millions of trial-takers, no one’s physical body could surpass his.
But after sealing off his physical body and cultivation, he was only ranked at the 109th place.
Ye Wang, who hadn’t made it into the top 100 in the first stage, was now ranked third in the Trial Heavenly Stair.
Thinking of this, Lu Yun couldn’t help but shake his head, “It seems that my willpower is somewhat lacking compared to theirs.”
However, he wasn’t too disappointed about it.
They were merely temporarily ahead.
He believed that the final winner would be him.
The pressure continued to intensify, with endless pressure surging over, along with the raging winds on the Heavenly Ladder, filled with bone-chilling cold, causing immense pain to everybody.
Only by forcibly enduring such pain could the physical strength slowly recover and maintain the speed of climbing on the Trial Heavenly Stair.
If one couldn’t endure the pain, break through the limit, and wait for the physical strength to be completely returned, the second stage of the Trial Heavenly Stair would end.
In the Trial Heavenly Stair, both the physical body and cultivation were sealed off, having little to do with one’s strength.
As long as one had strong willpower and continued to break through the limits, even a Rune Seed Realm cultivator could hope to surpass a Celestial Human Realm cultivator.
It seemed as if they saw hope, and everyone clenched their teeth, enduring the intense pain, and stepped over one staircase after another.
However, willpower was not something one could acquire overnight, but through years of training and refinement.
The many Heavenly Prides had lofty ambitions, but they eventually had to accept reality.
Not knowing the concept of gradual progress, they blindly climbed and were accompanied by mountain-like pressure, surpassing their own limits, and eventually fell from the Heavenly Ladder.
As the world spun, the next time they opened their eyes, they had appeared in the central square.
Unwilling, ashamed.
These failed people hung their heads and did not dare to look at the two powerful beings in the void.
Unfortunately, the gaze of the Heng Chong Dominator and the middle-aged man in green never fell on these failed people.
After six hours.
On the Trial Heavenly Stair.
Lu Yun consistently maintained a steady pace.
Going faster would surpass his limits and most likely end in failure.
The previous failures were good lessons.
His physical strength was the strongest among the many Heavenly Prides.
However, his willpower wasn’t.
Therefore, he couldn’t be impatient, he needed to approach the limit slowly and then gradually break through.
But he couldn’t be too slow either.
Being too slow, he wouldn’t be able to reach the top within the specified time.
That’s right, his goal was to reach the top and get full points in this second stage trial.
Only in this way could he have a 100% chance of directly advancing to a formal disciple of the Green Flame Palace.
“Crack…”
“Crack…”
This was not the sound of bones breaking, but the sound produced by the strong wind blowing and rubbing against the flesh.
Above the Trial Heavenly Stair, the participants endured not only the mountain-like pressure but also the bone-chilling cold wind, like a sharp blade constantly cutting across their skin, with crystal-clear blood droplets spilling down.
As time passed, the cold wind howled, snow and ice fluttered with the wind, dyeing the golden Heavenly Ladder with a coat of silver.
“Ranked twentieth, huh…”
With one step, Lu Yun had already ascended to the 1000th step of the Heavenly stair.
