Chapter 667: Chapter 658: The Slot Winner

"So arrogant!"

As soon as Mo Wangchen’s words were spoken, the faces of those from the Ancient Royal Families present were filled with anger.

"Does he really think he is invincible at the same level?"

The Sky Demon Little King still had traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of disdain as he glared upwards at Mo Wangchen. "If not for the Lingyun Heavenly Ladder, I would easily suppress you!"

"Come down and fight me fairly if you dare!" Other direct descendants of the Ancient Kings also spoke, wishing nothing more than to kill Mo Wangchen on the spot.

"You all talk big, but if you have the skills, come up here."

Mo Wangchen sneered, naturally unwilling to confront them head-on.

Frankly, if a life-and-death battle occurred, none of these Ancient King heirs would be easy to deal with.

Moreover, at this moment, in Sky-Reaching City, powerhouses gathered, and it was unknown how many powerful figures were hidden in the shadows.

Those who wanted to kill him weren’t few; without laying out the Array True Technique in advance, Mo Wangchen wouldn’t rashly make a move.

"If you dare come down, I would suppress you with just a raise of my hand!"

The Kunpeng Little King scowled darkly, extremely displeased; after all, he was a descendant of an Ancient King, a revered figure among all the Ancient Royal Families, and usually held in high esteem.

Yet now, he had suffered a setback at the hands of a young man from the Human Clan, which was infuriating.

"Stop spouting nonsense, either come up or shut up."

After leaving a remark, Mo Wangchen couldn’t be bothered to pay them any more attention. He found a place above the 900th step to sit cross-legged and consolidate his cultivation.

The assessment wasn’t over yet; besides the two slots he had already secured, there were two more yet to be confirmed.

Now, on the Lingyun Heavenly Ladder, the ones most likely to reach the peak were Leng Ziming, Xia Jiujian, Jiang Yuhang, Chu Feng, and Ye Fan.

At this moment, they had all reached around the 800th step, with only the last hundred steps remaining. Now, the climb became even more arduous, and it might take them two or three hours to reach the top.

Of course, besides these five, there was one other person with hopes of reaching the peak.

That was Wu Lingfeng, who possessed the True Dragon Body. Unknowingly, he had also climbed past the 700th step.

Although he was far behind Leng Ziming and the others, his steps were much steadier, walking in a methodical manner, showcasing the innate strength of the True Dragon Body.

Mo Wangchen sat cross-legged on the spot, beginning to consolidate his cultivation, having just broken through the third rank of the Emperor Realm.

"Vast Heavenly Gang, the strong abound. The Northern Immortal Domain is the weakest of the five, and now with the Ancient Royal Families emerging, the world is in turmoil, heralding chaotic times."

In his introspection, Mo Wangchen murmured to himself, "Now the world is my enemy. The Heavenly God Institute might be a good haven, but there are still three months until its doors open..."

"Traveling from the Northern Immortal Domain to Central State requires crossing countless desolate mountains. Throughout ancient times, no one dared to cross them, only by using the Teleportation Array. In the Northern Immortal Domain, there seem to be only a few forces possessing such Cross-Domain Arrays..."

Thinking of this, Mo Wangchen opened his eyes. "One of those Teleportation Arrays seems to be in the Pill Dissolution Sect, right?"

If that were true, soon, on the occasion of the Pill Dissolution Sect Master’s grand birthday, it seemed he would need to pay a personal visit, while also asking them for a favor.

Moreover, the effects of the Law Pill wouldn’t last much longer. The Pill Dissolution Sect was the foremost Alchemy Dao Great Sect in the Northern Immortal Domain. Perhaps they might have the Wood Ganoderma and four-leaf ginseng needed to refine the Law Pill.

Boom... Boom... Boom...

As time passed, more than three hours later.

With his eyes closed, Mo Wangchen could vaguely feel the entire Lingyun Heavenly Ladder vibrating.

He stood up from his spot and looked down, discovering that Leng Ziming and the others had reached around the 890th step at this moment.

The leader was undoubtedly Leng Ziming, followed by Xia Jiujian, who was at the 889th step.

He was just one step behind Leng Ziming.

Next in line, unexpectedly to Mo Wangchen, was Jiang Yuhang, now at the 885th step, so close to Leng Ziming and Xia Jiujian.

As for Ye Fan and Chu Feng, they were only around the 850th step, while Wu Lingfeng, displaying increasing valor, joined both Ye Fan and Chu Feng at the same position, moving upward together.

Because of the True Dragon Body, the trend showed signs that Wu Lingfeng might gradually surpass both Ye Fan and Chu Feng.

"Junior Brother Mo!"

Mo Wangchen stood at the peak until, more than an hour later.

Leng Ziming finally reached the 899th step, just one step from Mo Wangchen.

Yet this one step was like climbing to the heavens!

Only those who truly reached the 899th step would know the terrifying pressure present there.

Even with his Divine King Body, Mo Wangchen had to rest for an hour before he had the strength to take that final step.

Seeing Leng Ziming’s appearance now, it seemed he needed to spend even more time than Mo Wangchen!

"Congratulations, Senior Brother, on obtaining a place at the Heavenly God Institute."

Mo Wangchen nodded with a smile, though they stood one step apart. It felt as if he was looking down from above, creating an insurmountable impression.

Leng Ziming exhaled slowly, giving a bitter smile, "This spot came much harder to me compared to Junior Brother Mo."

Mo Wangchen had taken just eight hours to reach the top, breaking an ancient record.

Now, Leng Ziming had spent no less than fifteen hours getting there, nearly twice as long as Mo Wangchen.

This clearly showed the significant gap between them!

Mo Wangchen smiled, his gaze passing beside Leng Ziming to settle on the purple-clad figure behind him.

"Congratulations to Brother Xia for earning the third spot!" That purple-robed man was none other than Xia Jiujian.

At that moment, Xia Jiujian stood just a step behind Leng Ziming on the 898th step, looking noticeably more strained than Leng Ziming.

He was gritting his teeth, enduring the overwhelming pressure upon him!

"Boom!"

Eventually, more than half an hour later, Leng Ziming reached the top; the oppressive force on him drastically diminished, giving him a feeling of breakthrough, like the lifting of clouds to reveal a clear sky.

Leng Ziming sat down on the spot, recovering his Spiritual Power, and like Mo Wangchen, awaited the end of the assessment.

Another hour passed before Xia Jiujian finally reached the 900th step, and Jiang Yuhang came to the 898th step.

Wu Lingfeng closely followed, struggling on the 896th step, while Ye Fan and Chu Feng were slightly behind, at the 891st step.
