More than a dozen monks who had stolen the pill were found out, shocking the rest of the monks from daring to move their crooked thoughts.

After all, those who can pass the preliminary selection to participate in the entrance assessment are the best among their peers.

Even if they didn't pass the assessment this time, they still had a chance before.

But if the cheating is discovered, there is no place to turn over, and it can be said that it will be ruined for a lifetime.

By noon, the sun was blazing.

The scorching sun made many of the monks who participated in the competition sweat on their foreheads.

The higher they climbed, the stronger the coercion, and the more difficult it became for them to climb each ladder.

The speed of many monks gradually slowed down.

Some people began to breathe in situ to recover their spiritual power, recuperate and climb again.

There are also people who climb up in one go, without slowing down.

These people are all Tianjiao demons, and there are even three Jindan monks.

The gap between the rest of the people and them gradually became apparent.

The first batch of students enrolled in the 1,000 institutions were under the age of 30.

Among the lower three rank forces and scattered cultivators, there are very few who can break through to the Jindan stage under the age of thirty.

The three Jindan monks had already distanced themselves a lot from the others.

The fourth place also lost hundreds of stairs to them.

The three of them are all reluctant to give in to each other, and you chase me up and climb up, and they all want to compete for the first to reach the peak.

Their goal was not limited to the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety steps, but the peak of the Heavenly Peak.

Lu Chen also noticed that the three people, two men and one woman, were all five-turn golden pills that opened up thirty-three spiritual veins.

The five-turn golden pill can only belong to the top Tianjiao.

In fact, their qualifications are no worse than those of the big power Jindan demons.

It's just that because of the limitations of resources, it is impossible to condense the six-turn golden pill.

Among the low-level monks, there are many demons in the foundation building period.

But they can rarely refine the sixth-turn golden pill, and they generally stop at the fifth-turn golden pill.

Like Xu Youquan, there is no one in a million cultivators.

Xu Youquan has now broken through to the Seventh Transformation Golden Pill and is following the Void Heaven Ancestor in Flying Heaven City.

The Void Heaven Ancestor now seems to have become Lu Chen's butler.

Lu Chen walked slowly and hurriedly, step by step.

Unknowingly, hundreds of people also walked to the first echelon.

Along the way, he secretly checked the more than 2,000 monks who had participated in the assessment.

These people are basically talented.

If you don't get a good training, you will gradually only lose sight of everyone.

Lu Chen sighed secretly in his heart: With so many Tianjiao appearing in this place alone, how many people in the entire cultivation realm should be buried?

By dusk, the three Jindan monks at the top had already ascended the ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety steps.

It was a huge platform, large enough to accommodate two or three thousand people.

The three of them arrived on the platform, and their faces were all happy.

This means that they have passed the first level of assessment.

But their goal is more than that.

All three looked up at the peak, their eyes steadfast.

The three of them were monks from nearby towns, and they knew each other, but they didn't have much friendship, and now they were secretly competing, treating each other as fierce rivals.

One of the young men with a long sword on his back said proudly, "Brother Di, Miss Meng, why don't we compete to see who will climb to the top first?"

Another man, Di Yunfei, smiled, "That's what I mean. ”

The woman Meng Wanqing also giggled, "The two Dao brothers have to let the little girl a little." ”

Di Yunfei and another young man, Zhao Peng, smiled noncommittally, how could they give up the opportunity to reach the top?

Zhao Peng said, "Then let's get started." ”

After he finished speaking, he rushed to the first step.

Rumble.

Zhao Peng stepped on the steps, and suddenly felt the terrifying power suppressing him.

He used the power of the golden pill with all his strength to resist the coercion before he could barely stand firm, but his face was already pale, and his other raised leg wanted to step on the second step, but it weighed as if it had been filled with lead.

"Ahh

Zhao Peng roared, stepped down with all his might, and finally stepped on the steps, but at the same time spat out a mouthful of blood.

The situation of the other two was not much better than Zhao Peng, and after they stepped on the second step, they were almost at the limit.

After Zhao Peng stood firmly, he raised his other foot and wanted to step towards the third step, but suddenly his feet were floating, and a domineering force directly bounced him away, fell back to the platform, and took four or five steps back to stabilize his body, and almost fell to the ground.

He looked at the peak of Wen Tianfeng in disbelief.

How could the last nine steps be so hard?

He didn't even climb the third staircase.

The arrogance just now was instantly extinguished by cold water.

The pale face smiled self-deprecatingly, he was not a real demon after all.

The other two were also bounced back to the platform, also looking at the last nine steps with an unwilling expression.

A moment ago, they were still thinking about competing to see who would reach the top of Wentian Peak first, but they were bounced back without even stepping up the third step.

"Alas, the last nine steps of Tianfeng are getting harder and harder to climb. ”

On the flying magic weapon, Cheng Yanghong shook his head and sighed when he saw the three of them being bounced back to the platform.

Han Xu was also surprised to see that Han Peng and the three of them hadn't even climbed the third staircase, and he asked, "Didn't Tianfeng be so difficult to climb before?"

Cheng Yanghong explained, "Wen Tianfeng has always been a forbidden place used by the Cheng family to sharpen the younger generation of the clan. In the past, as long as you had the resources of Tianjiao, you could basically climb to the fourth or fifth floor, and if you had the assets of demons, it was possible to reach the top. However, since a hundred years ago, it has become more and more difficult to climb the last nine steps, and the Cheng family has also had more than ten demons climbing the mountain in the past hundred years, all of which have stopped at five or six floors. Even more than twenty years ago, the Pure Land of Bliss's Son of Empty Righteousness tried to climb the mountain, but only reached the eighth step before being bounced off. ”

After listening to Cheng Yanghong's words, everyone took a breath of cold air, and they couldn't imagine that the Son of Kongzheng had not been able to reach the top of Tianfeng.

That's a true dragon-level demon.

Their eyes couldn't help but look for Lu Chen in the crowd, Han Xu shook his head and said, "It seems that Brother Xiong doesn't have much hope of reaching the top either." ”

They originally thought that with Xiong Da's strength, it would not be a problem to reach the top and ask Tianfeng.

Cheng Yanghong said, "The suppression of the last nine steps has nothing to do with cultivation, but with qualifications, Dao heart, and understanding. Although those three people are in the Jindan stage, their potential is exhausted, and they suffer even more. Xiong Da is now bursting with potential, and there is still a glimmer of hope to reach the top, but it is very slim. ”

After hearing his words, everyone turned their eyes back to Xiong Da again, wanting to see if he would create a miracle.

Lu Chen walked leisurely to climb the mountain, and asked Tianfeng's suppression to feel nothing to him.

He didn't deliberately slow down or speed up, just like a normal walk, not slow or hurried.
