I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong Chapter 42 - 38: The Last 4 Steps (Please Follow)

It seems like Mr. Zhao knows he’s no match for Xiao Yue, so even after being whipped by Xiao Yue, he dares not talk back and ultimately blas himself.

Tian Lin doesn’t care about Zhao Si’s cursing; he returned to his room, changed his clothes, and went straight to the kitchen after taking his personal knife.

Tian Lin believes that Han Li’s relationship with Second Madam is deeper than his own, so he doesn’t bring up the issue about ’Flying Bird’ and just waits for Han Li to speak to Second Madam during lunch.

As for himself, he ordered his usual ’Ruyi Fan Blossom’ and ’Snow Honey Vegetables’, filling his food container and heading towards Dao Seeking Mountain.

As he approached the foot of Dao Seeking Mountain, the bell on top of the mountain began to toll.

Tian Lin gazed at the cool pavilion atop the mountain from its base, barely able to make out the figure of the bell-ringer.

There are rumors within Yao Yue Sect claiming that the Elder of Yao Yue has long been dead, and the bell-ringer on Dao Seeking Mountain may not be the Elder of Yao Yue.

But whether the bell-ringer is the living Elder of Yao Yue, the corpse of the Elder of Yao Yue, or soone else of unknown origin—

In any case, the entire Dao Seeking Mountain seems very bizarre.

This Immortal Ladder that has gone unclimbed for many years, is it preventing people from ascending, or preventing those above from descending?

Tian Lin feels that being unable to reach the summit isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

When the bell stopped tolling, Tian Lin finally reached the halfway point up the mountain. To his surprise, he did not see the woman in green at the mountain gate this ti.

Tian Lin didn’t think much of it and instead went directly up to the eighty-second level with his food container.

He prepared more dishes than the day before, and thus didn’t bother to bring even a bowl of rice.

With consumption and ditation, he unknowingly let the day turn into complete darkness.

Footsteps ca from below, and Tian Lin saw the green-robed elder from yesterday.

The elder, supporting himself with a cane, stopped when he reached the eighty-second level.

He looked at Tian Lin with a smile and said, "Young man, how long have you been playing the role of Huahua Lang?"

Before Tian Lin could respond, he heard the voice of the plump woman from last night say, "Old Gou, he’s one of Han Li’s. If you harbor any ill intent, be careful—Han Li will co for you."

The elder in the green robe sneered in disdain, "Afraid of Han Li? If he wants to find , let him co at any ti. I’ll be waiting at dicine Peak!"

Despite his words, the elder in green still left Tian Lin be, moving on upwards with his cane.

The plump woman in an apron flashed a smile at Tian Lin, who returned the gesture with a bow to express his gratitude.

After the plump woman also went up, Tian Lin thought for a mont and decided to continue ditating on the eighty-second level.

He appeared to close his eyes, but was alert at all tis.

Ti passed, and eventually, there were footsteps again from below.

Han Li and Bai Ye were actually coming up the mountain together; they passed by Tian Lin’s level and walked step by step up to the ninety-fifth level.

Only when Han Li’s figure appeared did Tian Lin start to take action.

He tried stepping onto the eighty-third level, which caught the attention of the four people on the ninety-fifth level. They all looked towards Tian Lin on the eighty-third level.

They saw Tian Lin sway slightly on the eighty-third level but soon stabilized himself.

"Is this guy really from the first-class Martial Realm before?"

Bai Ye couldn’t help but look towards Han Li beside him, whereas Han Li had an expressionless face, but was actually quite astonished inside.

"He must be no older than fifteen today, right?"

The plump woman made no attempt to hide her admiration for Tian Lin: "Have you ever seen a Grandmaster who is just fifteen? I’ve never seen one."

"There are fifteen-year-old Grandmasters, but they’re all from the Royal Family. This old man was once fortunate enough to et two of them, but I didn’t expect to see one in our Yao Yue Sect."

Old Gou was speaking, his eyes fixed on Tian Lin, seemingly taking more interest and pleasure in him.

Only Tian Lin at the eighty-third step remained silent, still ascending step by step.

And each step he took seed extrely difficult.

Finally, Tian Lin stopped at the ninetieth step.

There was a ’puh’ sound, and a cut mysteriously appeared on his shoulder.

Just as Han Li’s expression changed slightly, Tian Lin also opened his eyes.

His face slightly pale, he said to the four above: "It seems my cultivation can go no further."

Han Li relaxed, laughed heartily and said: "Don’t be in a hurry. I think it won’t be long before you can reach the ninety-fifth step. Perhaps, among us, you have a great chance of being the first to reach the first platform."

As soon as Han Li said this, Old Gou’s expression changed, but he quickly smiled and said: "Indeed, heroes erge at a young age. Our Yao Yue Sect will have an Outer Disciple who successfully promoted from a servant disciple."

"Yes indeed, so many years have passed! The last five steps have thwarted countless Martial Arts experts."

Han Li turned to Tian Lin and said: "You know, these last five steps have claid the lives of countless Grandmasters so much so that later no one else dared to take another step forward."

Tian Lin, influenced by his tone, also cast his eyes towards the five stone steps in front of the four.

Turns out, it wasn’t just because these four lacked the strength that they couldn’t ascend further.

But also because they harbored fear, afraid that if they took that step, they would find themselves without a place to be buried.

They thought, wait a little longer, wait until they are more certain, and then take that step.

"Alright, gentlen, it’s getting late today, Tian Lin and I will take our leave first."

Han Li saluted the other three with a cupped fist, then led Tian Lin down the stairs.

As they descended, Tian Lin also seed much more relaxed than before.

In the end, he was able to keep up with Han Li’s pace and quickly reached the entrance of the mountain gate.

"I noticed that Old Gou seed to look at with displeasure; I wonder if I’ve offended him in so way."

Upon reaching the mountain gate, Tian Lin suddenly spoke up, and after pondering for a mont Han Li replied:

"That old man has waited on the ninety-fifth step for more than ten years, sitting through over four thousand nights, but he has always been too afraid to climb the ninety-sixth step—he wants to find a scapegoat to throw up there and see what the killing move on the ninety-sixth step is."

Tian Lin didn’t believe him, saying: "When he spoke to earlier, I was only on the eighty-second step. How long would he have to wait for to reach the ninety-fifth step?"

Han Li sneered and said, "No matter how long, he’s willing to wait. He’s already waited for over four thousand nights; what’s a few hundred more days to him?

"I bet you, even if you ’helped’ him probe the way, he still wouldn’t dare take that step. He’s long since lost his courage on the path of Seeking Immortality; in fact, he’s wanted to back down from the Immortal Ladder too. It’s just that, seeing the Immortal Road so close, he can’t bear to let go, unwilling to concede the hardships of those previous ninety-five steps. I reckon that he’ll only advance his cultivation and have a chance to reach the platform when he eventually cos to terms with it. If he can’t resolve his doubts for the rest of his life, he will likely beco nothing more than a pile of bones on the ninety-fifth floor."

After finishing the speech, Han Li suddenly ’clang’ drew his sword, looked at Tian Lin and said: "You wanted my help in training your Martial Arts, didn’t you? Now that you’ve reached the Grandmaster Realm, draw your sword against !"
