Chapter 3033: The Heavenly Ladder!

The Yuantong Yuandong Heaven was one of the three supreme heavens of the human race.

Here, humans ruled, and the most顶尖 great powers of humanity resided.

Of course, geniuses here were as numerous as fish in the river, countless beyond measure.

Above the void, several figures looked down, their faces full of arrogance.

"Heh, a bunch of ants, do they really think there's such a thing as a free lunch in this world? Even if they pass this Heavenly Ladder, will the inheritance really fall into their hands?"

The speaker was a young master named Zuo Qingyang, the direct descendant of the Zuo family, the most顶尖 great clan in the Yuantong Yuandong Heaven.

He and the others beside him were the most天才 young generation of the Yuantong Yuandong Heaven.

Their strength was unfathomable.

These people were Lu Haoran of the Quyou Heavenly Sect, Wang Ningyan of the Purple Pole Heavenly Pavilion, and Zhou Xianchen of the Zhou Emperor Heavenly Palace.

These four great powers almost represented the pinnacle of humanity!

Back then, the Lost Divine Palace fell, but it pushed humanity to the peak of the heavens.

The three heavens—Yuanyuan Tongdong, Haoting Xiaodu, and Hanchong Miaocheng—rose powerfully and were collectively called the three supreme heavens of humanity!

The three supreme heavens of humanity, thirteen great powers, and over a dozen great experts at the Other Shore realm could even suppress the Xuming Tangyao Heaven.

And this batch of people—Zuo Qingyang, Lu Haoran, Wang Ningyan, Zhou Xianchen—almost represented the strongest level of the young generation of humanity across the heavens!

Each of these people had the strength to fight beyond their cultivation level, extremely powerful!

Thus, the masses below naturally could not catch their eye.

The Heavenly Ladder was the passage leading to the Lost Divine Palace in the void.

Only by passing through the passage could one complete the first trial.

With so many humans across the myriad heavens, not everyone was qualified to enter the Lost Divine Palace.

"Tch, as if this pie could fall on your head!" Zhou Xianchen said disdainfully.

Zuo Qingyang was not angry either, and said calmly, "Anyone can talk big. We'll see who's who when we take action later."

Wang Ningyan, peerlessly elegant, lived up to her name, as if she did not partake in worldly affairs.

Even a single glance at her felt like a desecration of her sacred visage.

She slowly spoke, her voice like heavenly music: "Brother Zuo makes sense. This kind of screening is actually unnecessary. Not to mention other races, but among humans alone, those who ultimately break through will not exceed the scope of the thirteen great powers. Those low-level planes are simply unnecessary. That Wutian, with his stunning brilliance and even the ability to foresee the future, in my opinion, is nothing more than this."

Zhou Xianchen and the others nodded in agreement.

In fact, they all shared this view.

But these geniuses were also secretly competing, deliberately belittling each other.

Zuo Qingyang said, "I can't be bothered to waste time with you here. I'll go down first! It's time to let these ants know their place and back off."

With that, Zuo Qingyang moved and entered the Heavenly Ladder.

Zhou Xianchen curled his lip and said, "This guy just can't go a day without showing off!"

Sure enough, exclamations of awe soon came from within the Heavenly Ladder.

"So fast! Who is that, able to ignore the Dao's pressure!"

"That's Zuo Qingyang of the Zuo family. No wonder he's called the number one young master of the heavens. His strength is truly immense!"

"With him here, even if we climb the Heavenly Ladder, what's the use?"

"Alas, the gap is too great! I knew I was just a toad lusting after a swan's flesh! But I really can't accept it!"

"Everyone, don't give up! Even if we can't get the inheritance, just entering the Lost Divine Palace will bring great gains!"

...

Within the Heavenly Ladder, many felt ashamed of their own inadequacy.

But some were naturally stubborn and refused to give up easily.

At this moment, however, the Heavenly Ladder was already a bloody mess.

The Heavenly Ladder had ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, and the higher one went, the greater the Dao's pressure.

Some could not withstand the Dao's pressure and were directly crushed into meat patties.

This difficulty alone was hellish.

Only true geniuses could climb these hundred thousand steps.

However, the Dao's pressure was quite fair.

It did not require a specific cultivation level, only testing one's understanding of the Dao.

Even if you were only at the Lesser Extreme Heaven rank, if your understanding of the Dao was profound, you could still pass the trial.

A low cultivation level didn't matter; you could slowly comprehend.

Suddenly, several figures swiftly ascended among the crowd—it was Lu Haoran and the others.

The three turned into three afterimages, chasing straight after Zuo Qingyang, so fast that the naked eye could not see clearly.

The appearance of these three naturally stirred up another wave within the Heavenly Ladder.

The strength of these four was simply too great.

Others struggled with every step on the Heavenly Ladder, but they walked as if on level ground.

They even used movement techniques, completely unaffected.

This made everyone sigh that the gap between people was truly immense.

The four moved extremely fast; the first fifty thousand steps could not stop them at all.

After fifty thousand steps, their speed gradually slowed, but still far surpassed others.

For the earlier steps, the Dao's pressure was negligible to them.

Thus, these few were almost neck and neck.

It wasn't until after seventy thousand steps that they began to show slight differences.

"Hey, Zuo Qingyang, you're too slow! At this rate, I'll catch up!" said Lu Haoran.

Among them, he spoke the least, but his strength was very formidable.

Of course, their strengths were roughly equal; even if there was a gap, it wasn't much.

But on this Heavenly Ladder of ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, strength could be finely differentiated.

Some things became clear at a glance.

Sure enough, Zuo Qingyang's face darkened, and he said nothing.

However, Zuo Qingyang was not willing to admit defeat easily and exerted all his strength.

Whoosh!

Zuo Qingyang leaped and directly landed on the platform.

He looked back at Lu Haoran and taunted, "Lu Haoran, Zhou Xianchen, you're nothing special! But as for Fairy Ningyan taking first place, I, Zuo, accept it!"

This Heavenly Ladder was a competition of time.

He had entered the Heavenly Ladder first and was the first to reach the platform.

But at this moment, Wang Ningyan had used the least time.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three figures landed on the platform almost one after another.

Below, people were still struggling to climb.

These four had come from behind and were the first batch to reach the platform.

Lu Haoran said calmly, "What are you so proud of? I only used eighty percent of my strength. You, I'm afraid, have used all your strength, right?"

Zhou Xianchen also said disdainfully, "I only used eighty percent too. Naturally, I had to let Fairy Ningyan take first place!"

Wang Ningyan frowned and said, "What, do I need your charity to take first place?"

Zhou Xianchen laughed, "Look at my mouth. Fairy Ningyan is the number one fairy of the heavens; how could she need charity? I was just trying to annoy Zuo Qingyang. Fairy Ningyan's first place is well-deserved!"

Wang Ningyan snorted coldly and said calmly, "Less flattery. Let's go check the Heavenly Ladder Ranking and see who is the number one on this Heavenly Ladder!"
