Chapter 153 Measure (1/2)
Bzzbzz!
Every gaze in the area was raised towards sky where a dark golden pillar of Genesis Qi was rising into the heavens.
This scene was not unfamiliar to everyone present. The same thing had also happened to them when they reached the Heaven Gate stage.
It was known as Qi dashing through the Heaven Gate, and was measured in feet.
Simply put, the higher one’s Qi rose, the more abundant one’s Genesis Qi was. Of course, there were also various other factors such as the grade of the Genesis Qi, the grade of the Qi Dwelling...
It was not always the case that the higher one’s Genesis Qi rose, the stronger one would be in the future. But at the very least, for a certain period in one’s cultivation, the higher one’s Genesis Qi soared, the bigger the lead one would have over others.
In a certain sense, this achievement represented one’s foundations. The sturdier and stronger one’s foundations, the greater the heights one’s Genesis Qi would reach when dashing past the Heaven Gate.
“That kid has really ascended to the Heaven Gate stage…”
“Already over 40 feet, that’s not bad at all…”
“But it seems to be rising still?”
“It will very likely approach its limit soon.”
“......”
Amongst the numerous whispers, the dark gold Genesis Qi pillar continued its unhurried ascent. A dozen breaths later, the whispers began to fade as everyone’s expressions changed slightly.
The dark gold Genesis Qi pillar had unknowingly reached a height of over 70 feet.
Such a height had already surpassed many of those present.
“Humph, he does have some ability.” Gu Ling’s pretty face had turned slightly cold. Back when she had advanced to the Heaven Gate stage, her Genesis Qi had only reached slightly over 70 feet. Zhou Yuan’s result was already comparable to her own.
Xiao Tianxuan did not remark, the expression in his eyes fluctuating indeterminately as he stared at the dark gold pillar. A faint sense of unease rose within him. He had discovered that even till now, the dark gold Qi pillar was still very concentrated and showed no signs of waning. In other words, Zhou Yuan still had a substantial amount of reserves.
It was indeed as he had expected. The rate at which the dark gold Qi pillar climbed did not drop, but instead began to increase...
*Uproar*!
An uproar washed over the mountains, gaze after gaze filled with astonishment.
Swish!
After another ten breaths, the rising dark gold Qi pillar broke past the 90 feet mark, directly reaching a hundred feet under Xiao Tianxuan’s ashen complexion.
Numerous faces began to be colored by emotion. A hundred feet. This result was able to match the top tier geniuses...
Did Zhou Yuan really have such talent and potential?
One of the onlookers wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead as he muttered, “It’s already reached a hundred feet, it should be over now, right?”
However, the dark gold Qi pillar seemed to have heard this individual’s words. The moment it reached a hundred feet, its speed suddenly began to rise rapidly. The previous foot by foot progress had now turned into a ten feet by ten feet dash...
*Uproar*! *Uproar*!
Wave after wave of noise pulsed across the mountains as if unable to stop.
Xiao Tianxuan’s and Gu Ling’s expressions grew uglier and uglier.
130 feet, 150 feet, 200 feet...
In the short span of a dozen breaths, the dark gold Qi pillar had already reached 200 feet!
The place had become very silent, disbelief on everyone’s faces.
“Still not stopping?” A trembling voice rang out, the owner looking at the Qi pillar as if it was a monster. The number of individuals whose Qi could reach 200 feet in the Cangmang Continent could be counted one one hand!
The names of every one of these geniuses was well known in the Cangmang Continent.
Trembling gaze after gaze watched the dark gold Qi pillar continue its climb. In the end, it gradually reached its limit, stopping at a whopping height of 484 feet!
484 feet!
The entire mountain range was dead silent.
