The morning sun was out, the east was white, and the crystal clear dewdrops sparkled in the sunlight.

"The Ancient City of Sky's Martial Competition, the mountain climbing road begins …"

Xue Piao glanced at the golden ray of light reflected in the sky and slowly stood up. A powerful sound wave was released from her mouth, reverberating through the nine heavens, lingering for a long time.

The moment he set foot on the mountain-climbing path, Ye Zichen immediately felt a strong spatial pressure pressing down on him.

However, Ye Zichen had cultivated his spirit body to the second level of change, while his physical strength had reached five million jin. Thus, the spatial pressure from the mountain climbing restrictions was unable to affect him in any way.

Ye Zichen climbed the mountain easily. Xue Tianyang, Sword Valley, Ice Palace, Snake Valley, Sky Cloud Martial School, and the Qian Family's top geniuses did not have any pressure as they continued to increase their speed.

In less than half an incense stick of time, they had left the other disciples far behind, climbing to the halfway point of the mountain.

Arriving at the middle of the mountain, the pressure of the space in the Ancient Sky Mountain clearly increased. Streaks of criss-crossing, extremely fast attack white light appeared, interweaving into a large net that made people despair.

Seeing the large net of white light in front of him, the Class 2 Magical Beast King, Jian Chen, attacked first.

An ear-piercing sword hum resounded from his body as boundless sword force gushed out and twined around his body like electric snakes.

"Swoosh!"

Jian Chen's body flashed forward as his entire body transformed into an extremely sharp streak of sword light. He slashed out horizontally, cutting apart the white light as if it were nothing. It was as if he was a sword that wanted to kill someone.

"Perfection of the sword."

The moment he felt Jian Chen attack, the Perfection Sword Force exploded out from his body, causing Ye Chenfeng's eyes to flash with a sharp glint.

"I wonder if this person has comprehended Sword Truth."

Ye Chenfeng felt that Jian Chen was not a simple person. The perfect level of sword force was most likely not his limit. It was very likely that he had comprehended Sword Truth, so a hint of fighting spirit appeared in his heart.

Seeing Jian Chen fly forward, the other geniuses all rushed into the white light to chase after him.

Amongst them, there were two supreme kings from the Frozen Asgard. The tall and sturdy Extreme Frost Sea, with fair skin and a petite figure, Bing Yuntong, attracted Ye Chen's attention.

"Dao of ice."

When the extremely fast and powerful white light struck their bodies, a sliver of ice appeared in their bodies, instantly enveloping their bodies. As they blocked the white light, they followed closely behind Jian Chen as they climbed up.

"Ice Dao Insight, these two people from Ice Palace are obviously stronger than Xue Tianyun and the others. It seems that their plan of borrowing the ancient city's Martial Meeting to eradicate the Floating Mist Mountain's genius is true."

Standing halfway up the mountain, Ye Chenfeng thought to himself as he deliberately waited.

Ten breaths of time later, two disciples of the Sword Valley that were at half-step into the king realm appeared.

The two of them glanced at Ye Chenfeng, who was standing halfway up the mountain. He did not stop climbing, and dashed into the white light without slowing down, creating a terrifying sword force that shattered the white light as he chased after the first group.

The blade of the sword, the rainbow of swords, Xue Xinyue, Xue Jinyan and the genius disciples from various forces appeared one after another. Although they were all surprised by why Ye Chenfeng stopped, they did not slow down as they charged into the white light.

"Buzz buzz!"

The moment all the disciples rushed into the white light, Ye Chenfeng, who was standing on the mountainside, released a powerful soul force and covered it up. He hid himself in the white light to sense if there were any experts hidden within.

"Ahhh …"

The speed of the white light attack was too fast, coupled with the fact that everyone was too concentrated, there were people who could not withstand the white light attack and were injured from time to time.

"Mm, that person …"

As Ye Chenfeng observed with his soul, a disciple dressed in a long white robe, with a slightly pale face and dim eyes, that Ice Palace disciple, who was in the fifth level of the Xuan Beast Sect, caught Ye Chenfeng's attention.

Although he was not fast when climbing the Ancient Heavenly Mountain, his senses were extremely sharp. He took a strange step in the middle of the crowd, and completely dodged the attack of the white light.

Not only him, but there was also an abnormal disciple in Snake Valley who seemed to be deliberately concealing his strength. He was like a spirit serpent, flashing in the crowd, and a white light attack couldn't hit his body at all.

Sensing the abnormality, Ye Zichen did not panic. Instead, with a flash of his feet, he charged into the white light web. He was like a lightning as he flashed around, leaving behind afterimages of varying shapes.

Due to Ye Zichen's speed being too fast, it gave the illusion that the white light was slowing down.

"What incredible speed."

When they saw Ye Zichen's shocking speed, many of the disciples who were attacked by the white light and fought desperately were completely shocked.

They couldn't understand why Ye Chenfeng, who clearly had the power to make it to the first group, would purposely stop at the very end.

Very quickly, Ye Chenfeng, with his astonishing speed, had already passed through the area where the white light was attacking halfway up the mountain. He intentionally followed behind the two Ice Palace and Snake Valley disciples, who made him feel suspicious.

Just as Ye Zichen was under increasing spatial pressure and following the two of them towards the peak, a powerful illusion power surged out from the peak of the Ancient Heavenly Mountain and poured into the nearby disciples.

"Illusion Dao Intent!"

Ye Zichen had comprehended twenty-one illusory dao patterns, and had comprehended the intent of illusory dao to the second heaven realm. Thus, the illusory power that surged out from the peak of Mount Ancient Heavenly Mountain was unable to affect him in any way.

As for the Ice Palace and Snake Valley disciples that Ye Zichen secretly observed, as he had guessed, they were not affected by the slightest bit of illusion. They climbed up the ancient mountain at a uniform speed, and approached the peak bit by bit.

"Perhaps they are the real trump cards of the West Devil Sect." Ye Chenfeng guessed in his heart.

After almost two hours, Ye Zichen followed a portion of the sect disciples, passed through layers of illusions and climbed up the peak of the Ancient Sky Mountain. At a close distance, he saw the ancient city, which had been through many vicissitudes, filled with great luck and shocking.

After the mountain climbing test, more than five hundred disciples out of the five hundred had failed to reach the summit of the ancient mountain within a limited amount of time, and were eliminated miserably.

Jian Chen was the first to climb up to the peak of the mountain without any suspense. His astonishing strength gave the disciples a great shock.

"Everyone rest for a bit. After two hours, we can jump over the city gate. However, we can only jump over the city gate for an incense stick of time. If we don't cross the city gate within that time, we will be eliminated."

Xue Piao glanced at the calm Ye Chenfeng and nodded his head in satisfaction. He summoned his soul wings and flew in the air, then announced loudly.

"Let me see how long you can hide for."

Ye Zichen scanned through the crowd with his deep eyes. The two inconspicuous people in the Snake Valley were Ice Palace disciples. They decided to wait for an opportunity to test out their strength when they jump over the city gate.
