Chapter 509 - Leaving One’s Na Upon The Auxiliary Tablets
Gu Zuo looked over, and saw many familiar people.
First of all, there were those who attracted the most attention. For example, the Sun God Church’s Mu Yefeng, Flying Cloud Palace’s Gao Hongyu, Heavenly Saber Mountain’s Rong Dao, and Star Point Temple’s Tantai Lianxing. Their imposing auras were the most terrifying, but there were quite a few unfamiliar faces who were just as terrifying as them. Although, it couldn’t be said that there were none stronger than them either.
The qi emissions of Divine Fla City’s Huo Li, who had been miserably defeated by Gongyi Tianheng at that ti, were even more powerful now. In addition, there were less talented prodigies like Qi Xuanao, Fan ng, and Bao Hong. On top of that, familiar folks like Prince Zhou, the Third Prince of Zhao, and Young Master Xin were here as well...
Of course, Gu Zuo also caught sight of the Ice Phoenix Goddess, who had thoroughly disgusted him back then — That thief actually ca to participate in the Prodigy Monunt’s competition, too?
In short, it really was a grand event. The number of prodigies was uncountable, and the qi emissions were fierce and violent. It was certainly going to be a battle between giants.
Once Tianheng appeared, a dozen or so gazes promptly fell upon him.
After seeing Tianheng’s face clearly, these eyes were filled with a hint of surprise. Shortly thereafter, they beca vigilant.
Gu Zuo inwardly thought: These prodigies probably think that big brother has practiced an unusual body cultivation thod, right? As a result, they believe that big brother’s strength has risen dramatically, and they’re guarding against him. But this isn’t the case at all. On the contrary, big brother’s strength has been reduced sowhat because he’s only an incarnation...
On the other hand, Tianheng was calm and composed. His complexion was tranquil and serene as usual.
However, no matter how calm he appeared right now, his temperant was still strange. The blood patterns on his face were enough to spark restraining fears in many people’s hearts.
Gu Zuo stood beside Tianheng, and together with Huang Ji and the other Ten Ultimates Sect prodigies, they quietly waited on the other side of the Prodigy Monunt.
When everyone was present, this great battle would officially begin!
Just as nearly an hour passed, the breaths of the nurous prodigies hitched. There was a type of sensation that was almost indiscernible, but once it burst forth, it would inevitably shatter the earth and alarm the heavens.
All of a sudden, a tall and dignified man with youthful appearances was standing at top of a mountain by the beach. Overlooking the scene below, he addressed the crowd of prodigies: “For the battles of the Prodigy Monunt, those who can leave their nas on the auxiliary tablets may take part in the arena fights. Otherwise, you will be eliminated!”
Once these words were uttered, three stone tablets rose up from the ground around the three-hundred-ter tall Prodigy Monunt. Each stone tablet was also three hundred ters tall, and shone with faint rays of light.
That young man continued: “Ladies and gentlen, you may carve your tablets!”
Following the situation, he reached out and pointed his finger. At the summits of those three stone tablets, the characters for “Immortal,” “Atomic,” and “Ascendant” erged.
The crowd of prodigies imdiately understood.
As it turned out, what they currently needed to do was to carve their identities on those stone tablets. If they couldn’t go up and carve anything, then they basically weren’t worthy of the title of prodigy and wouldn’t be able to join in this grand event, which only prodigies could participate!
Gu Zuo couldn’t help saying: “Could it be that they have to go up and write their own nas?”
This ti around, the ones who ca over were Elder Liu, Huang Ji’s senior brothers, and several powerhouses who were garrisoned here. This wasn’t only for protection, but to continue serving the prodigies.
Seeing Gu Zuo’s puzzlent at this mont, Elder Liu explained for him: “It definitely isn’t to write anything down. Instead, the prodigies have to stand below those auxiliary tablets, leap upwards, and mark them with a palm print.”
Gu Zuo slightly nodded his head: “So it’s like this.”
Soon after, he saw that three prodigies walked out and arrived in front of the three stone tablets. As they leaped, their bodies lifted upwards!
However, at this ti, Gu Zuo let out a sound of surprise.
Although pharmacists could only perform simple maneuvers in the air following the Xiantian Realm, he knew what normal martial artists could do. But now, the prodigies soaring beneath the stone tablets seed to have barely raised their bodies to the level they should’ve reached &#k2014; When they suddenly fell down as if they had been struck by a large hamr!
How odd...
Yet, since the very beginning, Gu Zuo had felt that sothing wasn’t quite right. This was because, regardless of which realm, a martial artist capable of riding the winds absolutely wouldn’t be limited to three hundred ters when soaring through the air. Thus, wouldn’t the summit of a three-hundred-ter tall stone tablet be covered with all kinds of identities? Now that he thought about it, this was highly unlikely.
As such, there had to be a restriction.
Sure enough, Elder Liu dispelled his doubts again: “In front of the Immortal Stone Tablet, gravity is two tis stronger than normal. In front of the Atomic Stone Tablet, gravity is ten tis stronger. And in front of the Ascendant Stone Tablet, gravity is fifty ti stronger.”
Naturally, this kind of restriction would make it easier to detect a martial artist’s true levels of achievent. After all, once one was in the air, the higher one flew, the more it took to resist gravity, making it even harder to endure.
Listening up to here, everyone understood things more clearly.
At this point, the performance records of the three prodigies who stood out first were also displayed.
The first one at the Immortal Stone Tablet climbed thirty ters.
The second one at the Atomic Stone Tablet climbed twenty-four ters.
The third one at the Ascendant Stone Tablet climbed fifteen ters.
After these three prodigies withdrew, their expressions all changed.
The highest they climbed on the three-hundred-ter tall stone tablets was no higher than thirty ters. How could they endure this kind of performance?
At once, the three people’s faces flushed and paled. They retreated into the crowd, and didn’t say anything.
Such an outco didn’t only make these three prodigies ashad and angry, it also caused the other prodigies to change their expressions.
Most of all were those who recognized the three prodigies. They repeatedly speculated on their own strengths. As for the ones who fought against the three prodigies, they also kept comparing themselves and making plans.
Gu Zuo was a little speechless: “These auxiliary tablets are actually so difficult to climb?”
Off to the side, Elder Liu said: “If they weren’t prodigy-level martial artists, they probably wouldn’t have been able to even place down their hand prints. To be capable of reaching twenty-four and thirty ters, these prodigies are already not considered the weakest.”
Gu Zuo shook his head: “I’m afraid that they don’t have the sa way of thinking.”
Twenty-four ters and thirty ters... This only made these prodigies feel that they had lost an incredible amount of face.
The “pathfinding” of these three prodigies allowed the subsequent people to co up with certain ideas, and they acted more cautiously. They no longer hurried to take action. Rather, they adjusted their energies to improve themselves to their best states.
Imdiately following which, another three people walked out. Their expressions were dignified, and the lights shining from their eyes were aid straight at the auxiliary tablets!
The three utilized marvelous body techniques and abruptly moved towards the summits. Their breathing remained even, and it felt as though the bottoms of their feet were pushing against streams of air, allowing them to shoot up in an instant!
The first person made it to twenty-one ters, twenty-four ters...thirty-six ters...fifty-four ters!
The second person reached twenty-seven ters, thirty ters...fifty-four ters...sixty-nine ters!
As for the third person, they ultimately got to sixty ters!
Undoubtedly, the second batch of people had made sufficient preparations. Their achievents were much better than that of the first batch.
Once they landed, perhaps due to the contrast of the first batch, although each of them felt their results left much to be desired, they slowly relaxed their expressions and weren’t as aggrieved as the previous people.
Gu Zuo carefully observed and learned a few things.
It appeared that one still couldn’t rely solely on brute force to get through this thing.
After that, Gu Zuo turned his head, and looked at Tianheng: “Big brother, are you confident?”
Tianheng faintly nodded his head: “Actually, there’s no harm in riding the wind and soaring through the air. However, after these people fall down, their energy will be depleted. If I do the sa, the changes in my figure will probably be seen through.”
Gu Zuo’s heart quivered.
Ah, this was a problem!
Indeed, it didn’t matter to other people, but once his big brother’s energy was used up, his entire body would beco transparent! Before the main body returned, it would be better to not expose anything...
Not good. They had to think of a way.
Tianheng reached out and pressed on his shoulder. In a soft voice, Tianheng said: “Ah Zuo, don’t worry. Let think of a solution.”
Gu Zuo silently nodded his head.
Fortunately, there was still so ti to co up with sothing.
With one batch after another, prodigies of different realms went up to slap their hands on the auxiliary tablets and leave their “nas.” As ti passed, those with uncertain thods had no choice but to rush up.
In this way, several people were eliminated. But at the sa ti, so ridiculous things took place. One wouldn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Just before, a prodigy soared into the air. When he jumped to the highest point he could reach, his complexion suddenly turned deathly pale. After slapping his palm and barely leaving a palm print on the auxiliary tablet, he fell from a great height. He was going to drop straight to the ground right before everyone’s eyes! If he really fell down, not only would his muscles and bones suffer injuries, he would lose all face!
Luckily, he didn’t co alone. Instead, he was accompanied by several fellow disciples. Thus, soone swiftly went out to catch him, so that he didn’t lose too much face. But even though it was like this, it was embarrassing enough.
Upon seeing this, other prodigies hearts turned cold.
At once, they each made their own plans, wanting to think of ways to prevent this kind of thing from happening.
Afterwards, with the intelligence of these prodigies, they really thought of different thods.
For example, there were prodigies who purely used their own strength to precisely control their internal qi, leaving themselves only a trace to control the flow of air and smoothly descend. rely, this would inevitably prevent those people from being able to exert their full strength. Thus, there might be so regrets in one’s heart.
As another example, there were prodigies who held a qi-replenishing dicinal pill in their mouths, and temporarily isolated it. After slapping out a palm print, they promptly swallowed the pill. The power of the dicinal pill would montarily surge and couldn’t imdiately restore their energy levels to their original states. However, it was still possible to provide a little energy to smoothly land.
At this ti, Tianheng and Gu Zuo exchanged glances.
Gu Zuo smiled: “Big brother, there’s a way!”
Tianheng chuckled: “Ah Zuo is right.”
Indeed, there was a way. Just like those martial artists who swallowed qi-replenishing pills, Tianheng only needed to keep a Blood Poison Pill in his mouth. Afterwards, his body could be restored in a split second, and others wouldn’t notice any indication.
Gu Zuo and Tianheng’s thoughts were aligned, and both of them had this plan in mind.
Tianheng restrained his heart’s desires. He reached out to rub Gu Zuo’s earlobe, and slowly cald down.
Following that, one prodigy after another obtained their own results. Gradually, Gu Zuo watched several acquaintances pass by.
First, it was that Third Prince of Zhao. Currently, he was an Atomic Realm martial artist. He extended a hand and left his identity at 117 ters on the stone tablet! Compared to the majority of people before, his achievent was a few points better.
As for Young Master Xin, he left his mark at 108 ters on the auxiliary tablet, so he was sowhat weaker than the Third Prince.
On the other hand, Prince Zhou went beyond the Third Prince’s expectations. In a short while, he reached 174 ters. Among the nurous prodigies who had already tested themselves, his performance could be considered a top score.
However, this top score didn’t last for too long.
This was due to what happened next. When Qi Xuanao and the others took action, most of them were between 150 and 180 ters. It could be said that, except for Prince Zhou, the other two people couldn’t compare at all.
Later on, it was Tantai Lianxing and the others. Among them, the one who marked the lowest reached 219 ters, and the highest reached 255 ters!
From this, one could see their talents.
