Chapter 186 Green Wave Obstructs the Sacred Path (1/2)

The instant Zhou Yuan came to stand side by side with those at the very front, wave after wave of noise exploded outside the Saint Remains Domain, the expressions of countless people changing slightly.

They were unable to comprehend how the clearly nearly spent Zhou Yuan had suddenly become so lively and energetic. He had not fallen behind even further, but had instead rose to be on the same level as Wu Huang and the rest.

One must know that at the end of the day, Zhou Yuan was still only a Heaven Gate stage expert, while Wu Huang and the rest had were bona fide Alpha-Origin practitioners!

The gap between these two levels was not small.

And yet, Zhou Yuan had still managed to catch up. How could anyone not be surprised?

Outside the Saint Remains Domain, Mu Wuji was somewhat astonished when he saw this scene and mumbled to himself, “This kid seems to have mastered some kind of high level Qi drawing method.”

His sharp eyes had seen through Zhou Yuan in a single glance. Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi was being rapidly replenished. Such speed could only be attributed to a high class Qi drawing method.

“But at least he has managed to push on…”

Mu Wuji chuckled, drawing in a breath of smoke as it puffed from his nose, causing smoke to pervade the area. He then looked towards the Sacred Sect envoy, Zhao Pan. The latter was currently expressionless as he stared at the mirror. However, from the twitching corners of his eyes, the former knew that he was not as calm as he seemed on the surface.

“Looks like this kid will really become a black horse…”

Mu Wuji’s mouth cracked open into a smile. Old mister’s eyes were really one of a kind.

...

Not long after Zhou Yuan burst of speed that put him on the same line Wu Huang, Ye Ming and the other top class geniuses, the eighth platform appeared within their sights.

Ye Ming’s gaze shot towards the final Dongxuan member still following behind him. It was a white hair youth with a frigid face. However, from the robustness and quantity of the Genesis Qi spreading from his body, he was clearly stronger than Zhu Ying and the rest.

“Fang Zong, you’re up.”

The white hair youth did not reply. His toes pushed off the ground, his body like phantom as it appeared on the stone platform. His indifferent eyes looked towards Zhou Yuan, Li Chunjun and Ningzhan as he said, “Who will fight me for the blessing on this stone platform?”

The gazes of the Zhou Yuan trio met, before Li Chunjun slowly suggested, “The one with the weakest Genesis Qi now shall go, any opinions?”

Ning Zhan awkwardly scratched his head and looked towards Zhou Yuan. His Genesis Qi had originally been the weakest, but after the previous change, the latter’s Genesis Qi was still going strong. As such, Ning Zhan was now just that slight beat weaker.

“I really wanted to fight Wu Huang again, never expected that I’ll have to stop here.”

Ning Zhan smiled helplessly. Soon after, his wild battle lust filled eyes burned passionately as they were cast towards the whtie hair youth. “But this guy looks like he’ll put up a pretty good fight. I hope that I’ll be able to enjoy this!”

“Heh, you there, the one called Zhou Yuan. If you get matched up with Wu Huang, give him a good beating for me!”

Ning Zhan yelled at Zhou Yuan before charging forward. With a loud boom, he landed on the eighth stone platform like a cannonball.

Zhou Yuan gave a slight nod as he gazed upon the former’s figure.

As Ning Zhan and Fang Zong entered the eighth platform, only the figures of Zhou Yuan, Wu Huang, Ye Ming and Li Chunjun were left on the stone steps...

These four were this batch’s best and finest.

Countless gazes blazed with excitement as they watched. The stone steps challenge was clearly growing more and more intense and amazing...

What they were most curious about however, was which two apex geniuses would be vyng on the ninth platform.

Countless gazes both inside and outside of the Saint Remains Domain eagerly watched, causing the entire place to become silent.

A short dozen minutes stealthily passed by in this silence.

“It’s appeared!”

“The ninth stone platform has appeared!”

Countless cries suddenly filled the sky, breaking the silence. Gaze after gaze looked over, and sure enough, they saw a stone platform floating some distance to the front.

It was the final stone platform on the Saint stairs!
