Chapter 218: Mountain and River Stage (Part 2)
"To pass the initial test, you need to climb the fourth flight of stairs. Now the bell has rung three times. Does this mean we've already reached the seventh flight?!"
"What kind of freak is this?"
In various areas of the Holy Spirit Academy, many disciples who were practicing hard to gain enlightenment stood up. Several women on the list of the most beautiful women could not remain calm, and their beautiful faces were filled with surprise.
Looking outside the academy, there was already an uproar. Both the disciples of the Holy Spirit Academy and the monks from various districts were discussing heatedly and making a lot of noise.
"Boom--!"
Soon, the eighth bell rang slowly and the sound spread particularly far away.
"No way, we've already reached the eighth step so quickly? Are we really on the Mountain River Steps?"
Many of the geniuses in the Holy Spirit Academy could no longer sit still, their hearts were filled with turmoil, and they found it difficult to remain calm.
"No, I have to go and see what kind of person this is!" A stunningly beautiful woman came out of her retreat, no longer with her original indifference and disdain, and decided to go to the scene to take a look in person.
"Let's go and see who this person is!" Those geniuses who were self-righteous also set off for the mountain gate.
At this moment, on the Mountain and River Steps outside the Holy Spirit Academy, Gu Chi was fighting against the vast power. There were crystal chains of order binding her, making it difficult for her to break free.
"This guy looked like a pervert earlier, but now that I take a closer look, he's actually quite handsome."
"Hey, please don't be such a fangirl at this time."
"To be honest, this guy's facial features are indeed quite good, and he seems quite approachable, much better than those people who always have a stern face!"
The group of girls were all very excited, chattering, and had already "rebelled" and changed their stance.
On the steps of mountains and rivers, Gu Chi tried her best to fight against the might of heaven and earth. She broke the divine chains of order one after another, and a sound like a flood bursting through a dam erupted, making people's ears buzz and the whole world tremble violently.
"This...how is it possible..." Han Xizhe was completely dumbfounded, even his voice was trembling, unable to accept this reality.
Thinking about the targeting and ridicule he had received not long ago, and then seeing Gu Chi's performance on the Mountain and River Steps at this moment, he felt cold from head to toe. What kind of freak had he offended?
As for Lu Yuwei's group of flower-guarding messengers, they all shut their mouths at this moment. They had previously ridiculed Gu Chi for being ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, but Gu Chi's current behavior was undoubtedly a loud slap in the face to each of them, making them feel hot on their cheeks and panic in their hearts.
"Am I not late?" At this moment, a beautiful woman in blue landed on the square outside the academy as lightly as a fairy.
Her pupils were like two sapphires, and her hair was also aqua blue, swaying gently in the wind like a blue waterfall.
There was a faint smile on her beautiful face, and her whole body was shrouded in a hazy glow. Her figure was tall and graceful, attracting everyone's attention.
"Isn't that Fairy Jin Yu, ranked ninth on the list of the most beautiful fragrances? I heard she rarely shows up. I never thought I'd have the pleasure of catching a glimpse of her today!"
The crowd was noisy, and the eyes of many young male monks became eager when they looked at the beautiful figure.
"Do you know the origin of that person?" Fairy Jin Yu gathered her beautiful aqua-blue hair, with a faint smile on her fair cheeks, staring at the figure on the Mountain and River Steps.
With a whoop, a group of people gathered around, including men and women.
"Fairy Jinyu, that's a pervert!"
"Yes, yes, he just said shamelessly that he wanted to take a bath with you."
A group of male monks shouted and reminded everyone loudly, fearing that Fairy Jin Yu would become interested in Gu Chi.
"Hey, Senior Brother Liu, can you please stop slandering others like that?" A female cultivator stood up for Gu Chi and spoke up for him.
"boom!"
At this moment, something strange happened on the Mountain and River Steps. The divine chains of order that had been broken all glowed and burned again, and re-condensed to wrap around Gu Chi.
"What a strong breath!" Everyone concentrated their attention. Even though they were far away, they felt shortness of breath and tightness in the chest.
"The real test has just begun." Fairy Jin Yu opened her red lips slightly, with a hint of divine light in her beautiful eyes.
"crash"
Those newly condensed divine chains of order were slowly tightening, with endless divine brilliance shining and a captivating aura spreading. Everyone in the square couldn't help but hold their breath, gazing at the Mountain and River Steps with nervous anticipation.
Obviously, if Gu Chi cannot break those divine chains of order, no matter how strong his physique is, he is doomed to be doomed to the blood-stained mountain and river stage.
Until this moment, Han Xizhe's pale face finally showed some color. He gritted his teeth and growled, "I knew he would fail. He must have been cheating before, and it won't be long before his true colors are exposed!"
At this moment, another genius rushed to the scene from the academy.
He was a young man who looked to be around 23 or 24 years old. He was dressed in a dark purple Taoist robe with cloud patterns. He had a handsome face and a heroic demeanor.
“Isn’t that Senior Brother Yun Che? He actually came over to join in the fun!” someone exclaimed.
Obviously, this is a genius who is very famous in the Holy Spirit Academy.
Yun Che raised his eyes and looked towards the Mountain and River Steps. He said, “The eighth stage of the Mountain and River Steps can only be reached by those with great luck. Even though he has reached that stage, it doesn’t necessarily mean he can pass the test.”
However, just as he finished speaking, all the divine chains of order on the Mountain and River Steps suddenly broke and turned into streams of light that spread in all directions.
Gu Chi's body was shaking like a candle in the wind, which could go out and fall down at any time.
“Boom——
The eighth bell rang, spreading throughout the Holy Spirit Academy, indicating that Gu Chi had passed the test of the eighth step.
There was a lot of noise and everyone present was dumbfounded. You have to know that the last time someone climbed the eighth stage of the Mountain and River Steps was more than six hundred years ago.
During this period, there were also conceited people who tried to break through, but unfortunately they all ended up with blood all over the steps.
"We're only one step away from reaching the summit. Going back a thousand years, has anyone ever reached the ninth section of the Mountain and River Steps?"
"It seems not. If he can successfully reach the summit, he will definitely be recorded in the history of the Holy Spirit Academy!"
"How can it be that easy? He is only at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. It's a stroke of luck that he can reach the eighth stage of the Mountain and River Stage. If he dares to reach the top, he will surely die!"
Everyone was talking about it, and most people were very excited and excited, hoping that Gu Chi could successfully reach the summit and break the thousand-year-old precedent.
Of course, there were also many jealous people who didn't want to see Gu Chi walk down the Shanhe Steps alive. They had resentful eyes and wanted to see her blood splattered on the spot.
At the same time, the commotion caused by the Mountain and River Stage also alarmed the senior figures in the Holy Spirit Academy. Many elders and celebrities descended on the mountain gate square one after another, standing on the clouds and staring at Gu Chi.
"How many years ago was it when someone last climbed the eighth section of the Mountain and River Steps?" an old man with thinning hair asked.
Another old man counted on his fingers and said, "It must be more than six hundred years."
