Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation

Chapter 542: Chapter 290: Opening of the Heavenly Gate, Activation of the Heavenly Level_2 freewёbnoνel.com

Nangong Xue nodded slightly, her expression not showing much fluctuation.

She knew well that there were countless Heavenly Prides in various provinces of Mororigin, as well as many Martial Academy’s Saint Children. Xiao Yun and Ye Xingxuan were not her only strong rivals.

As time passed, more and more people gathered outside the Ascension Gate.

Some people stood out among the crowd, while others remained hidden.

For example, Ye Xingxuan and Xiao Yun were already well-known throughout Mororigin and were at the forefront, enjoying the special treatment of the gifted.

People like Lu Yun and Nangong Xue, on the other hand, concealed their auras. If one did not carefully observe, they would not be able to see their depth, and if not for their extraordinary temperament, they would be overlooked among the many Heavenly Prides.

“Hmm, there are so many people here, Heavenly Prides from all provinces have come. This is truly a once-in-a-millennium sight.”

From afar, a jade-white carriage slowly approached, and a young man with a powerful Saber Intent aura stepped out of the carriage.

He carried a long saber on his back, with handsome features and an imposing presence.

When they saw this Saber Cultivation young man, many of the Heavenly Prides changed their expressions slightly.

“That’s.. Martial Academy’s Saint Child Deng Wuqing, could it be that the Martial Academy’s Saint Children are also coming out of seclusion?”

Everyone looked astonished.

Martial Academy’s Saint Children were known to be elusive, heard of only in legends, with few sightings of a real Saint Child in the world.

They were either devotedly cultivating in various secret realms or traveling the world, or taking on important positions in the Demon Suppression Army and Monster Extermination Army.

Not long ago, the talk of the town was the Saint Child Lu Yun of Ling Province, who was only known through his legendary deeds.

Ye Xingxuan glanced at Deng Wuqing but didn’t say anything.

Although he was not a Martial Academy’s Saint Child, it didn’t mean that his strength and talent couldn’t match that of the others.

He believed that if he had entered the Martial Academy back then, he would have at least attained a Saint Child’s position.

If there were any Saint Children from the Martial Academy that he would be wary of, it would be only those two.

“Hehe… it’s so lively, I’m really looking forward to the Heavenly Pride Convention in a month’s time.” An extremely enchanting woman appeared, her face so beautiful that it seemed flawless, like a sculpture made of mutton-fat jade, captivating and breathtaking.

“Another Saintess has arrived, Shen Miaoyi has already appeared, undoubtedly Fan Feiyu will also appear. There are rumors that they are bitter enemies, always confronting each other.”

…

One after another, Heavenly Princes and amazing talents made their appearances, even the Martial Academy’s Saint Children, who were famous throughout the various provinces of Mororigin, gradually appeared, making the atmosphere on the scene increasingly solemn.

Keep in mind that there is still a month left before the Heavenly Pride Convention officially begins.

A full month ahead of time, so many Heavenly Prides had already arrived.

By the time the convention actually began, the scale of that event would simply be unimaginable.

As time went on, the Heavenly Prides became more and more restless, and the sound of discussions grew more and more intense.

The strong man who walked out of the Ascension Gate said coldly, “The Ascension Steps have already descended. If we don’t climb now, then when?”

The opening of the Ascension Gate and the descending of the Ascension Steps without anyone entering made him very unhappy, even his words were filled with unpleasant emotions.

“In that case, let me be the first to lead the way for everyone!”

Deng Wuqing carried his long saber and took a step into the Ascension Gate.

Under Deng Wuqing’s leadership, countless Heavenly Prides displayed their skills and flew into the gate one after another.

“It seems that he won’t appear at the Heavenly Pride Convention.” Ye Xingxuan looked around and, without seeing the person he wanted to see, stepped into the Ascension Gate with a hint of disappointment.

“Young Master Lu, I am not qualified to step onto the Ascension Steps, so this will be our farewell.” Xie Yushi bowed slightly to Lu Yun.

Lu Yun nodded, then took out a thousand spirit crystals and gave them to Xie Yushi as payment for her guidance and introduction over the past few days.

Xie Yushi stared at Lu Yun’s back for a long time, not looking away until he entered the Ascension Gate and stepped onto the Ascension Steps.

During these days, she had received considerable benefits from acting as a guide.

Especially in the Martial Arts, after receiving pointers from Lu Yun, the progress she had made was comparable to half a year of her previous hard cultivation.

The only thing she felt a little regretful about was that she never found out who Lu Yun was.

“Young Master Lu, Yushi wishes you great success at the Heavenly Pride Convention, and may your fame shake the Thirteen Provinces in the future.”

After passing through the portal, Lu Yun landed on a golden path. On either side of the golden road flowed spirit springs, adorned with various spirit grasses and spirit flowers.

At the end of the golden path was a heavenly stairway connecting to the sky-floating city, mysterious and solemn, making everyone yearn for it. Clearly, this was the Ascension Steps to Sky Wall City.

“Whoosh!”

There was a breaking sound in the air as many people passed through the portal and landed on the golden path.

Among them, all were young Heavenly Prides under the age of fifty.

Walking on the golden path, Lu Yun could feel the thick spiritual energy here, which was several times more than that of the outside world.

Especially the spirit springs and spirit plants flowing on both sides of the golden path, which slightly moved his heart.

“Brother, we meet again.”

At this moment, a voice came from behind Lu Yun.

Turning to look, it was the Qin Feng who had entered the Imperial City with him.

“So it’s Brother Qin.”

Lu Yun cupped his hands, his face with a warm smile.

“I thought you weren’t participating in the Heavenly Pride Convention. Why are you climbing the Heavenly Steps? Could it be that after seeing so many Heavenly Prides, you changed your mind at the last minute?”

Lu Yun smiled, “I’m more interested in Sky Wall City.”

Together with the many other Heavenly Prides, they followed the golden path and soon reached the end, where the splendid Ascension Steps appeared before them.

At this moment, many people had already stepped onto the Heavenly Steps and were rapidly climbing up.

“It seems that these Ascension Steps are nothing special.”

Some Heavenly Prides, watching others effortlessly climb the golden steps, had such a thought appear in their minds.

However, once they stepped onto the golden steps, they felt something strange.

An endless pressure attacked them from all directions, trying to blast them off the Heavenly Steps.

Those who were careless or lacked true strength stumbled and rolled down the steps after climbing 100 or 200 steps.

“Not everyone is qualified to participate in the Heavenly Pride Convention.”

In response, the expert guarding the Ascension Steps just said indifferently.

With this lesson witnessed, the people behind became more careful and cautious.

However, the difficulty of climbing the Ascension Steps far exceeded their imagination. When they reached the first thousand steps, the pressure suddenly increased, and dozens of Heavenly Prides rolled down.

Although it was not fatal, their faces were bruised and swollen, and they looked very miserable.

Lu Yun leisurely strolled forward on the Ascension Steps, his speed not fast, but he appeared particularly relaxed and comfortable.

The pressure coming from all directions was almost nonexistent for him.

When he reached the five thousandth step, it was as if he had entered another mysterious area, with mist floating around and fierce winds blowing.

Obviously, at this point, there was not only terrifying pressure but also attacks from wind blades as sharp as knives.

Even some Heavenly Prides who had reached the Rune Seed Realm were injured by the wind blades, in addition to the powerful pressure that made them suffocate and struggled to catch their breath.

When they reached the six-thousandth step, one-third of the Heavenly Prides had been eliminated.

The higher they went, the more Heavenly Prides were eliminated.

At the ninth-thousandth step, only about one-fifth of the tens of thousands of Heavenly Prides remained.

Some Heavenly Prides were already drenched in sweat, gasping for air as if they had fought a great battle, completely exhausted. They had no choice but to sit cross-legged where they were, absorbing spirit crystals to recover their strength.

“Those who can’t even pass a single Ascension Step and want to participate in the Heavenly Pride Convention are simply delusional.”

A youth in a golden robe suddenly appeared on the Ascension Steps, climbing upwards at an incredibly terrifying speed.

A powerful storm surged around him, knocking down those Heavenly Prides who were sitting cross-legged on the Ascension Steps.

Lu Yun, who was walking slowly, was overtaken by the youth at the nine-thousand-two-hundredth step.

Without exception, he was also affected, as a strong wind blasted towards his body, trying to knock him off the Ascension Steps.
