Everyone couldn't help but take a sidelong glance at Xuanyuan Zilong's outburst, as they didn't dare to believe their own eyes. How could this brat be so powerful? Could he really have completed the test?

What Xuanyuan Zilong did not know was that there were a few people who knew him from the Divine Dragon Palace that were watching his every move from the crowd. At the start, they were puzzled by his actions, but now, looking at it, they seemed to understand. However, he still didn't understand why a dignified direct descendant of the Divine Dragon Palace would not only participate in such a trial, but would also seek trouble for himself.

"Nine hundred. There are nine thousand more." At this moment, Xuanyuan Zi Long was gasping for breath, his hands and feet had become weak and sweat had even soaked his clothes. At this moment, half an hour had passed. A portion of them had already passed him, turning to glance at him from time to time.

These people were all paying attention to Xuanyuan Zilong and everyone's luxurious gambling house. Looking at Xuanyuan Zilong's expression, losing was only a matter of time.

"Fifteen hundred." Xuanyuan Zilong's hands and feet were aching at the moment and he was sweating profusely. Many people had already surpassed him, and no longer cared about him. They were only concerned about whether or not they could pass the test to enter the Hidden Dragon Institute. Only a small portion of the people who were truly gambling with Xuanyuan Zilong were still paying attention to him. On the other hand, Long Junhao was smiling and did not express any emotion because of Xuanyuan Zilong's appearance.

"Hahaha, look at that kid. He won't be able to last much longer. We're rich!" The person who had first proposed the bet that Xuanyuan Zilong would be unable to pass laughed out loud. He said arrogantly, "This brat is just a soft stepping stone. It doesn't seem very useful at all."

"Hahaha, I don't think he can pass even half of the test. Why did he add a few more betting stakes just now to make this kid unable to bear the consequences?" Another person revealed a greedy expression, looking extremely proud of himself.

Xu Wendong looked at Xuanyuan Zilong and gave a cold laugh, the disdain in his eyes growing even more intense. In his eyes, Xuanyuan Zilong was someone who didn't know his own strength. Arrogant, arrogant.

Even the fatty Tang Wen and a few familiar people revealed worried expressions.

"Big brother, do your best! Don't let them underestimate you, hmph!" "Those guys are bad." Xuanyuan Zi Lin said to Xuanyuan Zi Long from his back in a soft voice. He even viciously glared at those who were taking pleasure in his misfortune.

Long Junhao and Xuanyuan Wen Jing smiled at him, their eyes filled with encouragement and determination.

"Hehe!" I never thought that I would have underestimated the power of the Heaven Stairway. " Xuanyuan Zilong gave a self-deprecating laugh before his expression turned solemn, "With my heart, I will forge the indestructible will, with my spirit, I will forge the eternal soul. My life belongs to me! From the heavens, let's fight! " Xuanyuan Zilong roared in his heart. At this moment, his blurry mind trembled and he could not help but shout out the three words "fight".

When the three words "Battle" came out, it had an incredible effect. The spirit energy within Xuanyuan Zilong's dantian slowly began to circulate, and it seemed as if something was flowing out from his soul realm. Moreover, it was slowly circulating. Every time it circulated, Xuanyuan Zilong's strength would increase by a bit and the pressure would decrease by a bit.

"Hmm, how could this be? What else is in my soul space that I don't know about?" Xuanyuan Zilong who did not have an understanding did not mind, now was not the time to care about these matters. He was no longer upset. An evil smile was plastered on his face. It was sinister and awe-inspiring, but it gave off a cute feeling.

His weak body and mind shook, and he quickened his pace.

"Hmm, I thought this was your limit, but you still have some energy left. Interesting boy, not bad, not bad, I would like to see what your limit is. If you let me be satisfied, you will have your own benefits at the Hidden Dragon Institute." The eyes in the darkness lit up again as he mumbled to himself.

The strange spirit energy that was gushing out from Xuanyuan Zilong's soul space was circulating faster and faster under the stimulation of the external pressure. Even the battle intent in his mind had been triggered as he commanded the nameless spirit energy to circulate.

"Zi Lin, hold on tight. I'm going to run." Xuanyuan Zilong felt the nameless spirit energy in his body revolving, the strength of his body was increasing and the pressure was also decreasing. He didn't care about Xuanyuan Zilin's shouts. He moved like the wind, light as a swallow, two meters in a single leap. Xuanyuan Zilin's jaw dropped, she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

Everyone immediately noticed a shadow running past them. It seemed like there was another person on his back. They did not know how to react and felt incredulous. Following that, they understood that this person was the Xuanyuan Zilong that they had mocked.

Xuanyuan Zilong's speed became faster and faster, and very quickly, he surpassed the people in front of him one after another. The faces of those who gambled with him changed, as they too felt uneasy in their hearts.

"Phew!" Good kid, it's really interesting, to not be pressured by the Heaven Stairway. I don't know what secrets are hidden inside his body, but at the Hidden Dragon Institute, this noble one will naturally investigate. " In the darkness, his eyes shone with a strange light.

On the Heaven Stairway, a strange scene once again appeared. A person was running on the Heaven Stairway, with thousands or even tens of thousands of people looking at him with their mouths agape.

"How is this possible? This idiot, how can he suddenly have such a fast speed? Wasn't he as tired as a dead dog just now?" Am I going to run out of 5000 top grade spirit stones? " He could not believe the scene in front of his eyes. Xuanyuan Zilong was already at the end of his strength and was no longer a threat to him.

"Impossible, how could it be like this? This boy, he is truly not simple. I do not know what sort of origin he has. Regardless, I do not believe that he will be able to last until the end." One of the men looked at Xuanyuan Zilong and mumbled to himself, his eyes shining with disbelief.

"Right now, there are only two thousand steps. We are still far from the nine thousand nine hundred steps. However, it's not too far away from dusk, and it'll be over soon. This kind of speed is but a fleeting moment, it's nothing special. " Xu Wendong was still calm and collected, and had not lost his composure because of Xuanyuan Zilong's sudden outburst.

Long Junhao's eyes lit up with a strange glow as he mumbled to himself, "Indeed, I'm not mistaken. I hope you can continue on with the test. Otherwise, I don't even know how I should treat you."

The circulation speed of the nameless spirit energy within Xuanyuan Zilong's soul space became faster and faster, and the benefits that it brought were limitless. Under the operation of this nameless spirit energy, the outside world's thick spirit energy actually seeped into his body, entered his dantian and grew stronger.

He discovered that with the circulation of the nameless spiritual energy, the pressure on his body was rapidly decreasing. By the time he had climbed more than 3000 steps, the pressure had already disappeared without a trace. He could no longer feel any pressure, and it was no different than usual.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Zilong had already surpassed everyone and had even distanced himself from them by quite a bit.

Everyone was guessing in their hearts whether Xuanyuan Zilong would really pass the test. They were all guessing that this person might actually pass the test. But there were also those who thought he could not pass.

As for the ones who had made the gamble with Xuanyuan Zilong, their hearts were growing increasingly uneasy. They knew that as long as there was a sliver of a chance for Xuanyuan Zilong to pass, then their losses would be huge.

The Sky Stairway was vast, and there were 999 of them. Until the end, no one could say for sure. Moreover, the more time passed, the greater the pressure. It was far beyond people's imagination, and it would not be easy to pass.

"Big brother, you're so strong. You can be so fast while carrying me on your back." You pretended to show them at the beginning! Good or bad! Like I said! "Big brother is the strongest!" Xuanyuan Zi Lin was beaming with joy as she spoke from Xuanyuan Zi Long's back. She even kissed the side of Xuanyuan Zi Long's face as she giggled.

Xuanyuan Zilong was stunned. The sudden attack made him feel a little unnatural, but towards his little sister who he loved dearly, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. He only paused for a little bit.

"Big brother, what are you standing there in a daze for? Hurry up and go, or else we'll be caught up again." Xuanyuan Zi Lin saw that Xuanyuan Zi Long was frozen and didn't move, so she immediately urged him.

"Good!" Good! "Alright!" Xuanyuan Zilong reacted and casually said. Xuanyuan Zilong's footsteps were still very fast as he continuously climbed the vast Heaven Stairway. The nameless spiritual energy circulated, and the spiritual energy from the outside fused with it, gradually strengthening the nameless spiritual energy. The expanding spirit energy first circulated within Xuanyuan Zilong's dantian. The spirit energy within it gradually fused with the spirit energy, as if the fused mortal spirit energy was more suitable for the circulation of the《 Heaven Punishing Star Arts》.

When it reached a certain limit, the fused spirit energy actually flowed into Xuanyuan Zilong's meridians, and was actually circulating within them.

Xuanyuan Zilong could naturally feel everything that was happening. His energy was becoming more and more exuberant, his strength becoming more and more powerful and the strength within his body had reached its limit. It was as if there was an endless supply of energy.

Xuanyuan Zilong still continued to climb the Sky Stairway, leaving everyone with only a single view of his back. In the end, his figure even disappeared into the clouds and mist.

The flight of stairs seemed endless, as they went higher and higher, gradually forming clouds. The deeper they went, the thicker it became. Here, the Heaven Stairway was still surrounded by tall shrubs. There were trees of all colors: red, green, purple, blue, yellow and so on. They were all flickering with light, appearing extremely magical.

These trees were full of life and were nourished by the spirit energy. The spirit energy became very pressing and began to radiate a bit of light. Some of them had existed for tens of thousands of years, some even hundreds of thousands of years. Those trees had already turned into spirits and transformed into tree demons.

Xuanyuan Zi Long and Xuanyuan Zi Lin were within the clouds. Seeing the clouds shrouding the Heavenly Stairway and the trees on both sides made them feel as if they were in a fairyland. This was a land of immortals, the spirit realm of immortals.

The mist was formed from spiritual energy, and it was the essence of the spiritual energy. Due to the great protective formation of the Hidden Dragon Institute, it had been accumulating spiritual energy for many years, causing this area to be filled with spiritual energy, condensing it into a physical entity and turning it into a holy land.

"What a dense spiritual energy. It's not much different from where the Divine Dragon Palace's outer disciples cultivate. If I were to cultivate here, I would definitely be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort." As Xuanyuan Zilong stood in this fairyland and looked at the thick spirit energy, he couldn't help but sigh emotionally. He discovered that the moment he entered the cloud mist, he discovered that it wasn't the so-called cloud mist, but the essence formed from spirit energy.

Xuanyuan Zi Long and Xuanyuan Zi Lin were covered by a cloud, making them look like fairies. On the vast Heaven Stairway, the Ji siblings and Xuanyuan Zilong's group of four could be seen.

Xuanyuan Zilong moved as if he was flying and his movements were nimble as he got closer and closer to the Ji siblings.

"Yue Er, we have two people following us. I didn't expect him to be so tenacious. He has already caught up to us." Ji Haoming smiled as he spoke to Ji Ziyue, who was standing next to him. There was a trace of surprise in his voice.

"Hmm, that stinking brat is arrogant and conceited. I didn't expect him to be so capable. You didn't give me any face at the low-level academy. Hmph! In the future, he will look good again. " Ji Ziyue's small face revealed a displeased expression, she was a little displeased with Xuanyuan Zilong.

Xuanyuan Zilong naturally did not know that he had been targeted. He was getting closer and closer to them.

"Yue'er, it's not like he offended you. Don't be stingy. Moreover, based on his temperament and the fact that he has the surname Xuanyuan, he should be a disciple of a large clan. You can't easily offend him …" A warm smile appeared on the man's dignified face.

"Brother, with our status, other than the direct descendant disciples of the Divine Dragon Palace, even the ordinary disciples of the Divine Dragon Palace wouldn't count for much. You have to understand that no one has ever looked down on me like this before. If I don't show him some color later, I won't be called Ji Ziyue. " The young girl's eyes revealed a strange light as she said this.

While the two of them were speaking, Xuanyuan Zi Long had already approached them, and it was only a few steps. But Xuanyuan Zilong did not know about their conversation. But even if he heard it, Xuanyuan Zilong would probably not pay any attention to it. As for Ji Ziyue's so-called revenge, if it was not too much of a difference, Xuanyuan Zilong would not mind playing with her. After all, Ji Ziyue could be considered a beauty.

At this time, Ji Ziyue suddenly shouted at Xuanyuan Zilong, "Xuanyuan Zilong, why don't we also have a bet? Let's compete and see who finishes this test and pays the one who loses a hundred thousand low-grade spirit crystals to the other party."

Although Xuanyuan Zilong didn't know why this Ji Ziyue, who he wasn't familiar with, would suddenly attack him, but if someone were to give him money to use, even if it was a little less, it shouldn't be wasted. So he said, "Alright, as you wish!"

"Hmph, what kind of attitude is this? Are you sure you can win? Put your sister down so that you don't go back on your word if you lose! "

"Hehe, don't worry about me. If you lose, I'll definitely give you the money. Hahaha!" After Xuanyuan Zilong finished speaking, he laughed and no longer paid any attention to Ji Ziyue.

3000 stations! Four thousand! Five thousand! Soon, the staircase to the 9999 balcony was halfway there. It had only been an hour.

Their speed was very fast at the beginning, but the further they went, the greater the pressure was on the Heaven Stairway, causing them to be caught off guard.

The Ji siblings were currently extremely tired, but they still had some energy left. With the assistance of his soul space and nameless gas, Xuanyuan Zilong had long since adapted to it. In other words, the immense pressure of the Heaven Stairway was completely useless against him. On the contrary, the greater the pressure, the better it would be for him.

The nameless spiritual energy was roaming around in his body, undoing the sealed spiritual energy bit by bit. As the pressure increased, the nameless gas moved faster and faster.

Xuanyuan Zilong had been following behind the two siblings and had not gone beyond them. If he had to surpass it, Xuanyuan Zilong would have long since surpassed it. Right now, he was probably not far from the end of the Sky Stairway. At this moment, Ji Ziyue was panting heavily. Although her physical fitness was good, after experiencing thousands of steps, she had almost used up all of them.

"Ji Ziyue, you can't walk anymore, right? "Do you want big brother to be the one that gets hurt?" Xuanyuan Zilong said as he walked in front of Ji Ziyue, revealing an evil smile. In Ji Ziyue's eyes, it was as annoying as it could be.

"Humph!" If you don't care, there's no guarantee that anyone will lose in the end! " The young girl rolled her eyes at Xuanyuan Zilong and said unhappily, "Fine, little girl, this brother will be leaving first. Come chase this brother, catch up to this brother, there's sugar to eat." Xuanyuan Zilong's mocking voice rang out but his person had already walked far away.

"You, you, detestable bastard, just you wait. I'll let you see." "Ah!" Ji Zi Yue screamed in anger. "Big brother, you see, this person is too annoying. I have to teach him a lesson." Ji Ziyue told Ji Haoming coquettishly.

As he spoke, a jade-green medicinal pill appeared in his hand out of nowhere, emitting an enticing fragrance. The amount of energy contained within it was enormous as well.

"Yue Er, don't tell me you want to use it!" Ji Haoming instantly exclaimed when he saw the dark-green pill.
