Young Master in Flower City

The Ghost Cave Road, thirteen steps.

Each step is filled with trepidation.

A slight misstep could lead to eternal damnation.

Therefore, for the people of the Yanzhou Ancient Realm, the Ghost Cave Thirteen Steps is the path to the Ghost Gate, especially the last three steps, known as the steps of doom; since ancient times, those who have taken this step have almost all perished without a trace.

How many distinguished individuals were crushed on the last three steps.

Considered as steps of doom, they are naturally worthy of the name.

Now, not only has Xiao Tianyu taken the ninth step, standing level with Tu Zhan.

Besides him, Li Fei has also achieved this, attracting everyone’s attention.

Thus, beyond the ninth step, there are already three figures, namely Tu Zhan, Xiao Tianyu, and Li Fei.

Tu Zhan, once unbelievably proud, claimed that if Xiao Tianyu only stopped at the fourth step, he would not even be worthy of Tu Zhan’s attention. But now, the person he ignored has already stood side by side with him.

Furthermore, he said to Tu Zhan, at the peak of the Ghost Cave, would be your day of death.

But that’s not all; after Xiao Tianyu, Li Fei also took nine steps, standing like a Demon God towering to the sky, with a look of disdain; the Qianhe Sect would head towards destruction due to their ignorance.

Regarding Li Fei’s words, naturally, no one paid any heed.

The Qianhe Sect, one of the top ten forces in the Yanzhou Ancient Realm.

Their Sect Leader, Liu Qianhe, is peerlessly unmatched, not someone they can destroy.

Nonetheless, today, both Xiao Tianyu and Li Fei have showcased their extraordinary elegance, one step away from the tenth step.

That step is Tu Zhan’s limit.

"Oh my god, big brother, second brother, both have taken the ninth step, us three brothers should progress together, there’s no reason I should be left behind!" Bai Bufan, who took the sixth step, showed an incredibly strong conviction in his expression.

The path of Martial Arts should press forward steadily.

Thunk~

A step taken, the world trembled, momentum encircled Bai Bufan, unyielding Dao Heart, confronting the destructive might above the seventh step, his body stabilized there, which astonished many hearts.

Xiao Tianyu and his brothers seemed to lack a mundane member.

This Bai Bufan, equally terrifying.

However, the seventh step is probably his limit, right?

Below, Zhan Xiao, who had been defeated, looked extremely pale; just stepping onto the sixth step, his conviction wavered, unable to bear the Heavenly Dao Power, resulting in his cultivation being crippled, and now, the three he ridiculed have reached heights that he can only look up to.

At this moment, above the seventh step, Bai Bufan stood alongside Jian Wushuang.

Behind, Duan Sanqing, Luo Haishan, no one dared to step onto that step for a simple reason: witnessing Zhan Xiao’s crippling.

If they stepped out and failed, it would be the end.

Therefore, they didn’t dare to risk it.

Thunk~

Just after Bai Bufan stabilized his body, footsteps came from behind; it was a woman, with long hair fluttering, stunningly peerless, embodying holy aura all over.

Mo Qingluan, she also took the seventh step, drawing all eyes.

It seemed as if the holy figure standing there inspired an infinite sense of distance; how many could match such a woman?

Thunk~

At this moment, once again footsteps echoed, Bai Bufan took the eighth step, allowing the power to attack, he stood unmoving as a mountain, the vast heavenly might couldn’t destroy his body.

Not even a hint of weakness.

"The eighth step, stabilized!"

"This..."

Many observed Bai Bufan’s long-haired silhouette, gasping in shock; just when everyone assumed Bai Bufan would halt, he took the eighth step.

Just one step away from catching up with Xiao Tianyu, Tu Zhan, and Li Fei.

Mo Qingluan, the seventh step.

Bai Bufan, the eighth step.

Xiao Tianyu, the ninth step.

Li Fei, the ninth step.

Currently, these four are gradually becoming the protagonists here, their aura surpassing anyone, drawing everyone’s attention.

"Just one more step?" Bai Bufan looked upward, expression firm, his Dao Heart unwavering, as he mentioned before, there’s no reason for him to be left out.

"What does he want to do?"

"Does he want to sprint further?"

"..."

Seeing Bai Bufan’s feet lift, countless gazes were filled with astonishment; unwilling to be left behind, he took another step.

Thunk~

With the step landing, the ninth step was taken, a storm arose, enveloping Bai Bufan, his mouth blood-stained, yet he truly withstood it, rooted like an anchor, standing firm on the ninth step.

Then, he looked towards Tu Zhan: "Taking the ninth step doesn’t seem that difficult, does it? Think of yourself as unruly?"

Sarcasm.

Bai Bufan’s words were sarcastic, but they seemed reasonable; Tu Zhan was so proud, seemingly the only one under the heavens, others destined to be his backdrop, but now?

The Xiao Tianyu group, seemingly none weaker than him.

Tu Zhan’s gaze scanned the three, his expression changed, slightly indifferent.

Thunk~

Suddenly, from behind, footsteps came again; Mo Qingluan also took a step, no less than a hero, taking the eighth step, just one step away from Xiao Tianyu and others, shocking countless eyes to near popping.

The Xiao Tianyu group, four people, three took the ninth step, one took the eighth step, surpassing many.

Is the Thousand Cities Wilderness without a child of destiny?

Now here, the four in the spotlight accomplished what these Yanzhou people couldn’t.

Thus, where does the pride of Yanzhou people stem from?

Thunk~

Subsequently, under all the attention, Mo Qingluan also took the most challenging step, her slender silhouette full of stubbornness, continuously blooming space law, resisting the Heavenly Dao Power.

Dao Intent Mirror Shattering, stepping into the Second Layer.

Three thousand strands fluttering, equally boundlessly elegant.

In response, Xiao Tianyu seemed unsurprised; Mo Qingluan reaching this step was indeed expected.

She had nine strands of Residual Spirit, comprehending one Dao Realm layer.

Now, Sword Intent Mirror Shattering, entering the Second Realm.

The ninth step is probably far from her limit.

Currently, the scene felt somewhat bizarre: Xiao Tianyu’s four all took the ninth step, standing with Tu Zhan, making Tu Zhan, who had been in the spotlight before, seem not as dazzling.

Because, very simply, Tu Zhan had undergone many temperings through the Ghost Cave Thirteen Steps.

And Xiao Tianyu and his group? This was merely their first time.

First time stepping on the ninth step without any prior tempering, their potential energy seemingly had already surpassed Tu Zhan.

No matter what, the vast space, they are all protagonists.

But Tu Zhan’s limit is the tenth step, naturally not possible to halt at the ninth step.

As for Jian Wushuang, having stepped onto the eighth step, his Sword Qi unrivaled and unstoppable, sword cultivators, innately charging forward with tenacity, would he be willing to lag behind?

Thunk~

Finally, under the attention of all, Jian Wushuang of the Juechen Sword Sect took that step, also standing on the ninth step, his sword dao intent soaring skywards,
