259 Oh

“Something’s not right.”

While bragging to everyone, the old tortoise still could not resist glancing into the distance. “This guy really looks familiar. Strange, I… As long as I’ve seen it with my own eyes, then by right, it’s impossible for me to forget…”

In the distance, the young man in white was still walking forward. However, at some point, a girl with an exquisite figure had appeared beside him. From the waist up, she had the form of a human girl, but from the waist down, she had spider legs. They were black and shiny, giving off a demonic beauty that made one’s scalp tingle.

“Strange, where is it…”

Under the Central Divine Mountain.

Feng Xia and Zhu Youniang walked over slowly. When the other demon beasts saw the two of them, they instinctively made way for them. However, there were also a few bystanders whose eyes flashed with faint disdain.

“Another overconfident fellow!”

“Do you really think that you can challenge the rules of the Heavenly Stairway just because you have some strength?”

At the foot of the Central Divine Mountain, there were more than 10 miniature mystical realms. A few were filled with flames and a few were filled with spiritual energy. They were like seats which symbolized strength and status. Only with enough strength could one occupy those miniature mystical realms!

Therefore, the busybodies who came first named these miniature mystical realms—

Heaven Seats!

At this moment, there were already a few Heaven Seats which were occupied by experts. One could see a few powerful figures revealing their true forms without any qualms. They released monstrous demonic aura and occupied a few miniature mystical realms just like that.

In one of the miniature mystical realms, flames soared into the sky and burned the void. Scorching magma flowed. When Feng Xia walked past the Heaven Seats, a demon bird soaking in magma suddenly opened its eyes.

“Stop here. You can’t go there.”

His voice was very deep and carried a trace of authority. Anyone who heard his voice would be intimidated by this pressure almost immediately!

Feng Xia suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He slowly turned around and looked at the flaming demon bird curiously. “Were you talking to me just now?”

Chi Yanli’s expression did not change at all. He continued indifferently, “The first one to step onto the Heavenly Stairway is not only a symbol of strength, but also an honor. And this honor… can only belong to one of us.”

He looked at the others sitting in the Heaven Seats.

There were other powerful creatures entrenched there. Their auras were overflowing and their pressure was shocking. When their gazes met with Chi Yanli’s, sparks and lightning actually appeared in the air!

With Chi Yanli’s pride, he did not take this young man who had suddenly appeared seriously.

His competitors were only those few!

As they were from the same generation, they naturally had all kinds of open and covert struggles all this while. None of the sides was willing to submit to the others. This time, the opening of the Heavenly Stairway undoubtedly gave them an excellent arena.

The first one to step onto the Heavenly Stairway, walk the furthest on this heavenly path, temper themselves, and obtain the greatest opportunities and benefits…

It meant that person had surpassed the others and was undoubtedly the number one of his generation!

To Chi Yanli, this man was just an unexpected intruder. He could not even be considered an opponent. The reason why Chi Yanli spoke was only to chase him away and avoid having him disturb their subsequent duels!

“Oh.”

Feng Xia seriously thought about it and took three breaths before slowly spitting out a word. Then, he held Zhu Youniang’s arm and continued walking forward slowly.

Chi Yanli: “…”

For some reason, he felt exceptionally alone at this moment. There was a strong urge in his chest to release a blazing sun flame and burn the two figures walking in front into ashes!

Fortunately, he suppressed this thought in an instant.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, Chi Yanli, can you do it or not?” A mocking voice came from another Heaven Seat. “Your warmth is not being reciprocated. Are you really not going to burn this kid to ashes?”

“Hmph, the Heavenly Stairway has its own rules. No one can climb the Heavenly Stairway until one month is up.”

Chi Yanli’s expression was calm as he snorted lightly. “Besides, if he wants to die, what does it have to do with me? The rules of the Heavenly Stairway will naturally teach him how to behave as a demon.”

Although he, Chi Yanli, was domineering, he did not like to kill indiscriminately. He had already reminded this young man, so if the other party did not listen, then no matter what the outcome was, it was only the other party’s own fault.

“It’s not that you don’t want to move, but you dare not move, right?”

The slightly sharp voice sounded again. “If I’m not wrong, if you attack now, it’ll be equivalent to destroying the aura you’ve accumulated and leaving flaws for others to find. Make one wrong step and every subsequent step will be wrong. By that time, you won’t be able to fight to be the first one on the Heavenly Stairway anymore.”

Chi Yanli’s expression darkened. He simply lay back on the ground, ignoring the person on the Heaven Seat.

“Speaking of which, this kid dared to ignore your warning. Should I say that he’s bold, or should I say that he’s fearlessly ignorant?”

The voice from afar also gradually lowered. “But you’re right. In the past few days, this isn’t the first guy who hasn’t given up, but all those final outcomes…”

Not far from the Heavenly Stairway, the corpses on the ground and the fresh blood that had yet to dissipate were the best proof!

“However, His Highness isn’t here yet. Can it be… What?!”

In the next moment, that sharp voice suddenly turned into a yell!

He was not the only one. In the other Heaven Seats, there were also fluctuations and soaring demonic aura. They looked at the Heavenly Stairway in disbelief.

“This is impossible!!”

“How did he do it?!”

Further away, the old tortoise, who was bragging to someone, suddenly trembled as if it had been electrocuted. Its small eyes widened. “Wait! I remember who that guy is—”

“Old senior, who are you talking about?” a demon beast asked curiously.

“The one in white, of course!”

The old tortoise unknowingly lost its composure. Even its old and trembling voice suddenly sounded much younger at this moment. “He’s heading straight for the Heaven Seats. Can it be that his goal is actually…”

Almost as soon as it finished speaking, a huge uproar erupted in the distance.

“He’s in!!”

“This guy actually entered the Heavenly Stairway?!”

“What’s going on? Why aren’t the restrictions on the Heavenly Stairway reacting?”

The young man in white held his female companion and walked into the range of the divine light on the Heavenly Stairway. He looked around curiously and ignored the thick divine light. Then, he turned to look in Chi Yanli’s direction.

“Thank you for your reminder, brother, but it seems like I’m the first to ascend the stairway.”

He smiled and sat down on the first step of the Heavenly Stairway. Then, he looked around and spoke slowly.

“It’s now… trading time.”
