Chapter 666: Chapter 300 Heavenly Ladder (Please Subscribe)_4

Their numbers combined, there were also more than seventy people.

Once everyone had gathered, Wang Xizhu and her husband Xue Tingyou took the lead, guiding everyone towards the very center of the Secret Realm.

That place was called the ‘Heavenly Ladder Entrance’.

When the three-month period of the Secret Realm’s first layer was up, the ‘Heavenly Ladder’ would descend to take people up to the second layer.

However, only those who had collected twelve ‘Time Blood Stones’ qualified to ascend the ladder.

As they were about to reach the ‘Heavenly Ladder Entrance,’ Wang Xizhu, holding a piece of mulberry paper and a Wolf Brush, landed beside her, running in parallel.

“Junior Sister Xiao, how many ‘Time Blood Stones’ do you still need? Those smaller than a fingertip don’t count.”

“I only lack two now.” Xiao Yi had actually lost interest in the ‘Time Blood Stones,’ in advancing to the second layer of the Secret Realm, and in enhancing her cultivation, etc.

Now, all she wanted was to kill more people.

Even if she couldn’t personally avenge Brother Qi Feng, it was still good to slaughter a few more bastard beasts.

After all, none of those who entered the Secret Realm were innocent.

However, coincidentally, three days ago, after she killed a disciple from Blood Bat Mountain who had intruded into the Northern regions, she found three qualified ‘Time Blood Stones’ from the man’s pocket.

Xiao Yi then looked at Wang Xizhu, her eyes filled with a hint of doubt, as she noticed the paper in her hand with names and numbers on it.

“Senior Sister, what is this for?”

“I’m tallying it up.” Wang Xizhu smiled slightly, “It’s under Brother Chu’s orders. He wants to know how many Time Blood Stones we are short of.”

Xiao Yi was taken aback upon hearing this. What was Brother Chu’s intent with this move?

Could he really make up for the shortfall of everyone?

She shook her head, “Actually, there’s no need to do this. If we pool our resources among ourselves, we should be able to gather enough for several dozen spots to send you to the second layer.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Xizhu let out a heh, a cold laugh, “Junior Sister’s idea is good, but it also depends on whether others are willing. Besides, the struggle for the Time Blood Stones is not yet settled. Didn’t you know, every time the Heavenly Ladder descends, it’s the most brutal and fierce moment in the fight for the Time Blood Stones?”

How could Xiao Yi not know?

Her plan was to join forces with many fellow disciples, to forcibly send several dozen elites among them up the Heavenly Ladder.

But Wang Xizhu stopped paying attention to Xiao Yi, and with a flickering motion like smoke or mist, she ran alongside another person, asking softly.

Not long after, two more factions joined with them.

They were fellow disciples from Wind Blood Cave and Thunder Valley.

Xiao Yi’s gaze immediately dimmed.

She had counted. This time, of the three hundred people from the Formless Divine Sect who entered the Secret Realm, only two hundred thirty-five had survived.

It was even more tragic for the three Vassal Sects, with only about thirty from each surviving.

At this point, not only Xiao Yi but also the fellow brothers and sisters around her all had dark expressions in their eyes and faces as pale as iron.

This tense atmosphere persisted until two minutes later, when things started to change.

Xiao Yi, sensing something, looked up ahead.

She could see the ‘Heavenly Ladder’ looming in the distance.

This so-called Heavenly Ladder was actually an incredibly huge bone as white as frost.

Its shape was like a human rib, with a slight curve, wrapped in a layer of azure-blue radiance, slowly descending from the sky, yet still not fully touching the ground.

Xiao Yi glanced at the ‘Heavenly Ladder’ once, but her attention was quickly drawn to the crowd gathered below it.

By now, nearly two thousand three hundred people had assembled here, and they noticed the arrival of the Formless Divine Sect’s people, casting their gazes over.

Among these people, close to seventy percent wore expressions of surprise and puzzlement.

It seemed they hadn’t expected the disciples of the Formless Divine Sect, who had retreated to the Northern regions to hide, to actually dare continue participating in this battle for the Heavenly Ladder.

Wasn’t this tantamount to courting death?

These people then became excited, their eyes shining with eagerness and greed.

They had already anticipated that these people from the Formless Divine Sect could bring them significant gains, allowing more of them to advance to the second layer of the Secret Realm.

However, there were another thirty percent whose looks were solemn and wary.
