Seeing the eager looks of the crowd, the Pavilion Master seemed to be moved as well.
“The Law Enforcement Elder and guardian stay behind to watch the house.” Moments later, the Pavilion Master spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing this, the crowd was ecstatic.
“Thank you, Lord Pavilion Master!” The courtyard was filled with thunderous cheers.
Soon after, the Pavilion Master didn’t waste any more time and turned to leave the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.
Dozens of alchemists followed closely behind, a scene never seen before.
Mr. Snyder, who was hiding in the shadows, was shocked by the sight.
“Where are they going?” Mr. Snyder frowned.
“Who knows.”
After pondering for a while, Mr. Snyder spoke with a sinking voice, “Let’s follow them and find out.”
The three quickly left the hotel and stealthily trailed behind the crowd.
The place where the cultivation skill mentioned by the Pavilion Master was located in River Town.
River Town had numerous mountain stones, and rugged peaks could be seen everywhere.
In many places, there was no access for vehicles, and as they walked, it felt as though they had traveled back in time.
Soon, the group arrived at the foot of a huge mountain.
What was astonishing was that in front of this mountain stood a giant Stone Staircase!
The entire Stone Staircase was a masterpiece, reaching straight for the heavens!
Above the Stone Staircase was actually a huge hand!
Such a scene left people in awe!
When approaching the Stone Staircase, one could feel a strong sense of majesty that made people involuntarily want to pay their respects.
Those with low strength knelt down immediately; even Ethan Smith felt slightly unwell.
It was as if his entire body and divine sense were being sucked into the Stone Staircase.
The Pavilion Master pointed at the giant hand above and said, “The cultivation skill is up there. As long as you can climb up, you can obtain it.”
“Is it that simple?” Ethan Smith was somewhat surprised.
The Pavilion Master glanced at Ethan Smith and said indifferently, “Being careless could cost your life.”
Ethan Smith stuck out his tongue and laughed awkwardly, “I was being reckless.”
In the shadows.
Mr. Snyder and the others also witnessed this scene.
In the dark.
Mr. Snyder and the others couldn’t help laughing loudly.
“This kid is indeed not the Chosen One, hahaha!” Mr. Snyder laughed wildly.
“This second stairway will likely cause him great damage.”
“We can go now, there’s no need to watch further.”
But just when everyone was disappointed, Ethan Smith struggled to stand up on the stairway!
He was covered in blood, and his body trembled continuously.
However, Ethan had no intention of giving up!
Under this excruciating pain, Ethan raised his foot with difficulty, stepping towards the Third Layer of the stairway to heaven!
“Huh?” Mr. Snyder, hidden in the dark, couldn’t help raising his eyebrows.
“Does this kid want to forcibly climb the stairway?”
“Haha, interesting, as far as I know, Jackson Harris did the same back then, but he couldn’t withstand it beyond the Thirteenth Layer.”
“I guess he can climb up to the Fifth Layer at most.”
The crowd discussed animatedly, their eyes filled with a touch of playfulness.
Under the stairway, the Pavilion Master’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, and a trace of unease flashed in her eyes.
“Ethan, forcibly climbing the stairway will yield no results, even if you manage to climb a few layers by luck, you’ll eventually fall.” The Pavilion Master said coldly.
However, Ethan didn’t say a word, his teeth clenched tightly, enduring the torture of countless pain without any intention of retreating!
“So what if it doesn’t recognize me...” Ethan gritted his teeth, lifting his foot once more!
“I don’t need the stairway’s recognition, just my own!” Ethan roared angrily, his energy suddenly erupting!
He fought against the power of the stairway with his own fierce strength!
Finally, Ethan stepped onto the Fourth Layer!
The pain of the Fourth Layer was dozens of times more intense than the Third Layer!
Ethan only felt as if his divine sense was about to be stripped away! His bones made “cracking” noises, as if they were about to shatter!
“Ethan! Hurry down!” The Fifth Elder shouted anxiously.
But Ethan ignored everything, his hand firmly grasped the Fifth Layer, struggling to climb up!
“Crack!”
The instant he stepped on the Fifth Layer, all ten of Ethan’s fingers broke! His vision spun, and he could barely stand!
“Ah!!” Ethan roared continuously, using all his strength to lift his foot and step towards the Sixth Layer!
The moment he stepped on the Sixth Layer, Ethan’s calf burst open with a “bang”!
“Ethan! Hurry down!” The people watching below shouted in unison.
Even the Pavilion Master could not bear to watch this heartbreaking scene.
