Chapter 757: Chapter 755: First Level! Wrath of Heavenly Thunder!

Finally, Liujing Feng said, "Each floor of the Ascension Tower can accommodate up to 100,000 people. So, when 100,000 people enter the third floor, we will begin the test."

"Only after these 100,000 people have either passed or failed, the second group of people will be allowed to enter."

"Everyone, ascend the tower, step by step to Heaven!"

"Please."

Liujing Feng said with a slight smile, making way with the other eight high-ranking Elders.

"Ascension Tower, open!"

Just then, a loud shout rang out.

The tightly closed doors of the Ascension Tower gradually opened, and a solemn, serious voice echoed between Heaven and Earth.

Bai Xiaoxiao curiously asked, "Lin Bai, only 100,000 warriors are allowed to enter the Ascension Tower each time. When should we go, should we wait for a while or go now?"

Qi Yao said, "Of course we should go now, how can a real man lag behind others? We should definitely be the first group to pass the Ascension Tower."

"Not only us but other experts will also enter in the first batch."

"Moreover, the first seven challenges will not allow any rest for the warriors. Only after completing these seven challenges and the Martial Soul test can we take a break and wait for the other warriors to pass the test, then we will head to the Lingfan Mountain together."

"After we pass in the first batch, we can rest for a while to regain our peak condition. Otherwise, if we are the last group of warriors to pass through, there probably won’t be any time to rest before heading directly to the Lingfan Mountain."

Lin Bai nodded and said: "Qi Yao’s right. We should aim to pass in the first batch! I need to rest well after passing the first seven challenges. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll be at a disadvantage in the Lingfan Mountain."

Bai Xiaoxiao held Lin Bai’s hand: "Don’t worry, we will definitely get through this ordeal together."

"It’s me, not you."

Lin Bai said with a faint smile, "Let’s go. Today, someone must fall in the Lingfan Mountain, perhaps it’s me, perhaps it’s him."

With determined eyes, Lin Bai walked towards the Ascension Tower.

With this step, Lin Bai knew he was about to face the Giant God Clan.

Longqing Feng looked around and laughed, "Qin Beiao, now the top fighters on the potential list of Tianding City, Lin Bai, Qi Yao, Yao Feng, He Qian, and Fang Ji, all want to pass the challenges in the first batch."

Qin Beiao said, "Humph, it seems that as long as we take down them, we will have defeated all the top warriors of Tianding City."

"Let’s go and show them the strength of the talents from the 72 nations of the Martial Arts Sacred Land in Lingnan."

With a mutual glance, Qin Beiao and Longqing Feng walked into the Ascension Tower, smiling.

Along with the crowd, Lin Bai ascended to the third floor.

Not long after,

Liujing Feng’s voice came: "100,000 people have arrived, now the Illusion Realm will begin!"

Lin Bai and Bai Xiaoxiao stood together, looking around the entire third floor. At a glance, all they could see were heads; it was utterly packed.

At this very moment.

Lin Bai suddenly felt the sound of thunder echoing from above his head.

Gradually.

All the warriors on the third floor quickly disappeared in front of Lin Bai.

"We’re about to enter the Illusion Realm." Bai Xiaoxiao, who also saw people disappearing, knew the Illusion Realm had begun.

Lin Bai said, "In the Illusion Realm, you can only rely on yourself, Xiaoxiao, you need to be very careful."

Bai Xiaoxiao said, "Don’t worry about me, you have to take good care of yourself, don’t get too injured, you still have a tough fight ahead!"

"Okay."

Lin Bai nodded.

Suddenly, a wave of light brushed past Lin Bai, completely taking him into the Illusion Realm.

Boom boom——

The first thing Lin Bai heard was the thunder roaring in his ears.

Lin Bai looked up to see that the sky was filled with thunderclouds, thick divine thunders roared like giant dragons in the Heaven and Earth.

"The first Illusion Realm! Wrath of the Heavenly Thunder!"

Crack!

A divine thunderbolt struck down, casting a towering mountain thousands of meters away into utter rubble, sending fragments of rock flying everywhere.

"Such horror!"

Lin Bai suddenly realized that the thunderbolts spreading down from the clouds were potent enough to easily incinerate a master of the Human Elixir Realm.

This realization sent shivers down Lin Bai’s spine.

Crack, crack, crack, crack —

Suddenly, at that moment, a piece of thunderbolt continually surged downward.

Targeting Lin Bai with an onslaught.

The power of the thunderbolt was terrifyingly extreme. An aura of supreme domination, capable of annihilating everything, caused the hairs on Lin Bai’s body to bristle, and his eyes instantly to become extremely solemn.

Immediately, Lin Bai swiftly employed a movement technique, instantaneously retreating backward!

Just after Lin Bai had left, innumerable thunderbolts struck down, obliterating the mountain where Lin Bai had been standing into dust.

"They are coming for me!"

"As per what Murong Changtian has said before, once the light gate is found, I can pass through the illusionary realm!"

"So, they want me to find the Light Gate while carrying these thunderbolts?"

In the instant that Lin Bai retreated, his mind rumbled with thoughts as swift as lightning.

"Are the other warriors in the illusionary realms also looking for the Light Gate?"

Lin Bai’s face turned pale for an instance. He pivoted his body and bolted off into the distance.

As Lin Bai moved, the thunderbolts in the sky followed him as if they had grown eyes, pursuing Lin Bai.

The horrifying power of the thunderbolts battered Lin Bai in the illusionary realm, forcing him into a continuous and embarrassing retreat.

The outside world.

With the opening of the illusionary realm within the third obstruction.

Before the Ascension Tower, the ground began to sprout stone steles approximately a hundred meters high, revealing scenes from within the illusionary realms.

There were a total of nine stone steles, revealing only nine warriors’ silhouettes.

"The Projection Stone Steles have risen. The nine stone steles will feature nine warriors who pass through the illusionary realm. I wonder who will be the first to appear on the Projection Stone Wall."

"Yes, the warriors who appear on these nine Projection Stone Steles will mostly be the top ten of this trial. They will also be the strongest nine."

Many warriors had bright eyes, gazing intently at the Projection Stone Wall.

Pei Ji, Liu Jingfeng, and the seven other high-ranking Elders also curiously observed the Projection Stone Wall.

These nine high-ranking Elders were given the task of selecting outstanding disciples to join the Nine Great Institutions.

Undoubtedly, the nine people who appeared on the Projection Stone Wall were extraordinary talents, for whom the Nine Great Institutions had bitterly strived.

Whoosh —

Suddenly, at that moment, an image appeared on the first stone stele.

A handsome and self-important man gazed at the roiling thunderbolts in the sky above, with his eyes filled with murderous intent.

At that moment, the man took a step, deploying profound power that shattered the sky and struck with his palm.

Smack!

The heavens and the earth roared, shocking the gods.

This man’s palm destroyed the sky full of thunderbolts as easily as if he were breaking a fragile ornament!

He broke through the thunderbolts and a light gate appeared. The man snorted coldly, stepped into the Light Gate, and entered the second layer of the illusionary realm.

And on the Projection Stone Tablet, this man’s name appeared: Qin Beiao!

Liu Jingfeng’s face was full of astonishment as he watched this man and immediately stood up, proclaiming decisively, "We, the Fist Daoist Courtyard, must have Qin Beiao!"

The other eight elders, including Pei Ji, all appeared surprised.

They originally yearned to take Qin Beiao as a disciple, but after hearing Liu Jingfeng’s determined words, they silently shook their heads.

Especially Pei Ji shook his head and said, "Why isn’t such a talent a Sword Cultivator? Since he was able to shatter the thunderbolts with a single palm, his fist techniques must be extraordinarily high. Of the Nine Great Institutions, who else could compete with the Fist Daoist Courtyard regarding fist techniques?"

"Looks like the Fist Daoist Courtyard are going to produce another unparalleled genius."
