767: Lustful Demon
As the Undying Golden Body Art continuously circulated, Yang Lingchen gradually adapted to the pressure and slowly walked toward the 90th floor.
"Who on earth is this guy? His talent is too terrifying!"
"Indeed! Looking at his posture, it seems he wants to break the historical record of the Immortal Spirit Pagoda that has stood for hundreds of millions of years!"
"This record isn't so easy to break. In the long history of our Tianxin Academy, there have been as many as ten people who could reach the 89th floor, but only the academy's first dean has ever reached the 90th floor."
At this moment, many people began to discuss.
With every step Yang Lingchen took, he had to face terrifying pressure. Fortunately, he was Cultivating the Heaven-Defying Cultivation Technique known as the Undying Golden Body Art, which allowed him to barely resist it.
If it were an ordinary person facing such terrifying pressure, it would be impossible to withstand it.
Each floor of the Immortal Spirit Pagoda has thirty steps, and each step represents different mysteries of the Laws of Heaven and Earth. Only by fully comprehending the Laws of each floor can a climber step onto the next level.
Yang Lingchen carefully comprehended the mysteries of the Immortal Spirit Pagoda while circulating the Undying Golden Body Art to absorb the Spiritual Qi within the pagoda.
As he climbed upwards, he felt his cultivation level also rapidly rising.
Yang Lingchen estimated that if he could reach the 99th floor, his cultivation level would very likely reach the Earth Immortal Realm Fourth Layer.
85th floor.
As they continued their ascent, Qiao Yanxi and Ji Tiantian finally caught up with Yun Mengyao on the 85th floor.
"Yun Mengyao." A trace of surprise flashed in Qiao Yanxi's eyes; she did not expect to meet Yun Mengyao here.
"Qiao Yanxi, Ji Tiantian." A trace of surprise appeared in Yun Mengyao's eyes. "I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Yun Mengyao, have you seen Yang Lingchen?" Qiao Yanxi asked.
"Yang Lingchen?" A trace of confusion flashed in Yun Mengyao's beautiful eyes.
"Yes, that's him, Yang Lingchen, the brat who participated in the Grand Competition with us and got sixth place," Qiao Yanxi said.
"What do you want with him?" Yun Mengyao asked, her willow-leaf eyebrows slightly knitted.
"Nothing much, I just want to beat this scoundrel up," Qiao Yanxi said huffily.
"Scoundrel? What did he do to you?" Yun Mengyao asked curiously.
"This bastard is despicable, shameless, and lewd. This Young Lady was having a fair spar with him, but he suddenly took out a Dharma Seal and slapped it onto my chest. Tell me, isn't he a scoundrel?" Qiao Yanxi said angrily.
"But he doesn't look like that kind of person to me!" Yun Mengyao said.
"Yun Mengyao, don't be fooled by his appearance. This guy has a vile character; he is simply a devil in lust," Qiao Yanxi said.
"A devil in lust?" Yun Mengyao frowned and said, "Did he take advantage of you?"
"That didn't happen, but when I first met him, he almost hooked up with a Sky-Swallowing Fire Bird," Qiao Yanxi said.
"A Sky-Swallowing Fire Bird? What do you mean?" Yun Mengyao asked.
"It happened like this: at that time, a female Sky-Swallowing Fire Bird wanted to rape Yang Lingchen, but Yang Lingchen's body had a reaction, which is why Yanxi thinks Yang Lingchen is a sex fiend." Ji Tiantian smiled and explained the sequence of events.
"So that's how it is. Isn't that normal? The Yao Race is inherently good at seducing men; it's very normal for him to have a reaction!" Yun Mengyao said indifferently.
"Alright, let's not talk about that. Have you seen this bastard?" Qiao Yanxi asked.
"No." Yun Mengyao shook her head.
"That's impossible! We chased him all the way up from below; this brat must be above," Qiao Yanxi said with a frown.
"Look quickly, that guy has already stepped onto the 90th floor, tying the record of the first dean."
"It seems our academy has produced a super Prodigy! As long as a Prodigy of this level doesn't fall, their future achievements will definitely not be lower than our first dean."
At this moment, the area outside the Immortal Spirit Pagoda was in an uproar. Everyone cast their gaze toward the 90th floor, their eyes filled with a trace of envy and shock.
At this time, Yang Lingchen was already walking toward the 91st floor. His ultimate goal was to reach the Peak of the Immortal Spirit Pagoda.
Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, two more days had passed.
After two days of climbing, Yang Lingchen had arrived at the 96th floor, and his cultivation level had successfully broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm third layer.
At this point, his climbing speed had completely slowed down. Previously, he could still stand and walk up, but now he could only support himself with the ground and slowly crawl upwards.
But even so, Yang Lingchen was still enduring immense pain. That terrifying pressure was already making it hard for him to breathe.
If it weren't for the sake of raising his cultivation level to the Earth Immortal Realm Fourth Layer, Yang Lingchen really wouldn't have wanted to persist.
At this time, twelve days had passed since Yang Lingchen entered the Immortal Spirit Pagoda, and there were only three days left until the fifteen-day deadline.
In other words, in these last three days, he had to reach the 99th floor, otherwise, he would never have another chance.
After reaching the 96th floor, the clothes on Yang Lingchen's body had been torn by this terrifying pressure. The veins on his body were bulging, and wisps of blood were seeping out from his skin.
Yang Lingchen gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with a trace of determination. He slowly crawled upwards. Every time he ascended a small step, a stream of pure energy surged into his body, repairing it.
It was precisely these streams of pure energy that were his motivation to move forward.
As he continued to climb, his cultivation level had already reached the Late Stage of the Earth Immortal Realm third layer.
88th floor.
Qiao Yanxi and Yun Mengyao were already exhausted and collapsed on the ground. Only Ji Tiantian was slightly more relaxed, as if she were completely fine.
"I'll just climb to here. I really can't climb anymore. If you aren't afraid of being tired, go on by yourselves!" Qiao Yanxi panted with difficulty.
"I don't want to climb anymore either," Yun Mengyao said with difficulty.
With their talent, they could actually climb a few more floors, but a woman's willpower is, after all, a bit inferior to a man's.
"Then I won't climb either."
Ji Tiantian smiled lightly. She was actually the most relaxed of the three, but seeing that Qiao Yanxi wouldn't climb anymore, she didn't feel it was appropriate to climb up alone.
At this moment, the cultivation levels of the three women had all reached the Earth Immortal Realm Fourth Layer. They were very satisfied with the gains from this climb of the Immortal Spirit Pagoda.
Before climbing the pagoda, their cultivation levels had already reached the Peak of the Ninth Layer of the Profound Immortal Realm. Now, being able to reach the Earth Immortal Realm Fourth Layer, this terrifying improvement was several grades stronger compared to other climbers.
