Chapter 55 Moonlit Night, Belongs To Him! (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)
On the seventy-ninth step, Su Ming stood there, looking around and especially gazing at the bright moon in the sky. At this moment, it was still some time before midnight, but despite that, Su Ming felt quite comfortable under the moonlight.
Since he practiced the Huo Man technique, Su Ming has been fond of moonlit nights, especially on full moon days. After practicing the Huo Man technique, Su Ming had never encountered a full moon.
Although there was once, but that day was overcast, he felt a surge of turmoil in his body inside the cave, but ultimately there was not much change. However, Su Ming himself analyzed that if it were not for the clouds covering the moon on that day, perhaps he would have had some obvious differences.
Unfortunately, it's not a full moon now, but Su Ming still feels very relaxed. At the same time, he also felt the pressure coming from the mountain, which grew stronger as he climbed higher and seemed to intensify with the rising of the bright moon.
"Feng Quan Man Gong once said that the mountain's oppressive aura would strengthen at night, and indeed it was so." Su Ming smiled slightly, not paying much attention to this matter. In his view, while the night might make the mountain's oppressive aura stronger, it was also when his own strength reached its peak.
Nighttime Su Ming is much more terrifying than daytime!!
Withdraw your gaze from the bright moon, Su Ming sat down cross-legged on the seventy-ninth step, took a deep breath, and silently felt the difference of this place.
This is indeed as he expected, the second place of pressure balance on this small road, especially here, although the oppression is balanced, it is much stronger than the thirty-second step, very suitable for him to continue manipulating the micro-entry of Qi and blood in his body, making the bloodline appear and disappear more accurately.
Needless to say, Su Ming at this moment had already felt the subtlety of his control over his blood and Qi after entering the state of microcosm. The three additional blood lines that appeared when he walked here would be enough for him to reach the fifth layer of Blood Condensation with just one more line!
This made Su Ming extremely expectant, he wanted to know that when the seventy-ninth step was no longer suitable for his cultivation, how many more bloodlines would be added when he stood up and walked towards an even higher place!
Su Ming slowly closed his eyes, silently circulating the Qi and blood in his body, starting another subtle manipulation, trying to reverse the speed of the Qi and blood, making it slow down bit by bit according to his own will.
The fifty-two bloodlines on his body, with the passage of time, in constant change, gradually stabilized and continued to decrease, slowly reaching the limit at the thirty-second step, only to increase by three bloodlines, making it so that now on his body, after the bloodlines disappeared one by one, forty remained!
Su Ming's expression was calm and unruffled, without a hint of urgency. He slowly manipulated his vital energy, immersing himself in the subtle control, as time flew by, an hour quickly passed.
At this moment in the mountains, many people have given up advancing and instead chose to sit cross-legged on a platform, cultivating themselves while observing the token in their hands to know the ranking, waiting for dawn to try again.
Wu Sen panted heavily, his face pale. He gritted his teeth and climbed a few more steps before reaching the 295th step, but he couldn't bear it anymore. He sat down on one side, his expression gloomy as he stared at the fog, his eyes gradually becoming dazed.
"My corpse Qi source blood... That damned person stole my corpse Qi source blood. Without this blood, not only will my cultivation not advance, but it will also rapidly weaken... I can already feel my own weakness..."
"This matter cannot be told to Grandfather unless absolutely necessary. Once Grandfather finds out that I lost the source of the corpse's blood, even if I manage to find it again, I will never regain his trust..." Thinking of this terrible consequence, Wu Sen clenched his fists, and in his bewildered eyes, there was a hint of fear.
Nor can I let others know, especially those who have devoted their lives to me. All these years, I've been able to suppress them because of my strength and status within the clan. Once they find out that I've lost the source of my undead blood, I'm afraid they'll immediately betray me.
"What to do...... what to do......" Wu Sen's face was ferocious, his teeth clenched, but more of it was still confusion.
Panting, muttering to himself as he walked, he gazed up at the bright moonlight in the sky that wasn't shrouded by fog. He had a mind to stop and rest until tomorrow, but when he looked at the ranking on his token, that guy Bi Suo had surpassed him. Not willing to be outdone, he gritted his teeth and continued on, determined to overtake him once again after advancing two more stages.
"Damn it! I don't believe it!" Zhēn Chōng gritted his teeth and continued to walk up.
At the same time, Bi Su of Hei Shan Bu was also wearing a rough expression. While looking at the token in his hand, he gritted his teeth and faced the increasingly oppressive mountain stairs under the moonlight, as if he had made up his mind to clash with Chen Xun, and walked forward forcibly.
Half a time later, Zhen Chong's legs trembled and he let out a loud roar, sitting down to one side, facing the quiet fog all around him, roaring several times in succession.
"Go on, you go, grandma's, I won't compete with you today, come again tomorrow!"
Perhaps it was the solemnity that had an effect, but after walking a few more steps, he suddenly collapsed to the ground with a thud. However, as he looked at his ranking, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Lei Chen was also sitting on the 130th step, sighing repeatedly, with a very unwilling expression.
Many people have already stopped, but there is still one person who continues to move forward.
"Five hundred sixty-three... five hundred sixty-seven... five hundred seventy-two... Ye Wang is still advancing in the dead of night!"
"The second one is Bi Su, he's only at the 397th level, but Ye Wang has already surpassed 500, isn't he going to ignore the increasing mountain pressure at night and keep going?"
"It's no wonder you're the first among your peers, with this perseverance, it can't be compared to others!"
Hundreds of people on the square are staring at the top spot on each statue, and now only this first place is still changing in the entire ranking.
All others who participated in this first round have stopped completely.
"Five hundred eighty-seven! Five hundred eighty-nine!"
"It's changed again, this time it's 595!!"
The square was filled with a burst of noise, everyone gazed at the first place in the ranking, even the leaders of other tribes were secretly sighing in admiration for this young Ye Wang.
"Mosang, in our tribe, this Ye Wang, his innate talent is high, how does it compare to yours back then?" Feng Quan's Mo Gong Jing Nan smiled as he gazed at the carved name, speaking slowly.
Grandfather Mo's expression was calm and he smiled slightly.
"Not bad."
Jing Nan smiled and didn't say much about it either.
At this moment, on the mountain, Ye Wang's expression was firm, his forehead sweating, but he still walked with his hands behind his back, step by step. Although every step was difficult, he didn't hesitate at all. Finally, after stepping onto the 600th step, he stopped and smiled, sitting cross-legged to one side.
"Last time on the first day, I walked to 580 steps. This time, I exceeded 20 steps, it's enough...I don't know if this time, anyone can discover the test of the 562nd step...Thinking about it, it should still be the same as before, no one has the qualifications to experience the heart refinement of the 562nd step." In his muttering, there was an undisguised pride. The 562nd step is a threshold, he failed on that threshold the first time, succeeded the second time, and now the third time, it's not something he would pay much attention to. Moreover, in his view, none of these participants have the qualifications to compete with him, nor do they have the qualifications to make him take notice.
He didn't even go see the medal all day, he was competing against himself, not those participants.
When he stopped, the voices of discussion rose continuously from the square below outside, and in everyone's eyes, this day's trial was over with Ye Wang's stop, and next, it would not start again until dawn.
"First place Ye Wang, second place Bi Su, third place Chen Chong... twelfth place Wu Sen... Up to this point, in the first ten miles of the first day, only one is an outsider, and all the others are from our Fengquan tribe!"
However, the 48th place Beiling and the 49th place Sikong are also outsiders. I don't know if these two can still be in the top 50 tomorrow. After all, this is only the first day, and tomorrow is the key!
"This Bi Su is actually from which tribe? He's so astonishing, he's even ranked second, surpassing Chen Chong! From now on, this person will definitely be renowned!"
"It's not over yet, and something unexpected might happen..." The murmurs of discussion also gradually weakened, and the hundreds of people in this place mostly sat down cross-legged, waiting for the arrival of the next day.
Slowly, the surroundings became quiet except for the sound of breathing.
"Mo Sang, let's go back to the tribe and continue our chess game. We can come back at dawn and see if Su Ming from your family can make it into the top 50." Jing Nan smiled slightly as he looked at Mo Sang.
Ah Gong Mo San didn't say a word, but looked at the statue and nodded his head as one hundred and twenty Su Ming fell from it, standing at one hundred and twenty-three.
The two were about to leave, but just then, Ah Gong's eyes suddenly contracted, and immediately afterwards, some of the clansmen who had not rested yet and were occasionally looking at those rankings let out a cry of surprise.
"It's moving!! That thing called Mo Su, it's moving!!" This sudden cry immediately made the people around who had already closed their eyes unconsciously open them and look over. As they looked, their expressions suddenly changed to one of surprise.
Jing Nan, who was about to leave, also stopped in his tracks and looked intently.
It wasn't just him, but everyone in the square, including the barbarian king of Wulang Department, the tribal chief of Heishan Department, and the leaders of other departments, all looked over. After all, at this late hour, when all participants had stopped moving forward, this sudden change was particularly striking!
Deep in the mountains, on the seventy-ninth step of the small road where Su Ming was located, he suddenly opened his eyes as he sat cross-legged. The control over the blood lines within his body had solidified to twenty-eight, reaching its limit and unable to continue. This time was much smoother than before, and the time it took was also significantly shorter, because tonight was a moonlit night!
Under the moonlight, there was a faint red moon shadow in Su Ming's eyes. He slowly stood up and looked at the winding stairs ahead, with a flash of light in his eyes.
"Next stop..." Su Ming lifted his right foot, on this moonlit night, in the depths of the mountain where everyone else, including Zhen Chong and Bi Sui, and even Ye Wang, dared not to proceed, he, Su Ming, took a step forward!
The moonlit night belongs to him!
