Tyron’s words were undeniably arrogant, a direct threat to the two immortals, implying they would soon face consequences for their actions. Unsurprisingly, the Astral immortals didn’t take this kindly, their expressions darkening.Adrian stood by, his gaze cold as he observed them. "If you two make a move, I donut you’ll successfully kill us both. So, I suggest you think twice before acting recklessly while I’m still in a decent mood," Adrian said sharply, his tone cold and firm. It was clear he knew exactly what he was doing.The tension in the air was palpable, and those nearby remained silent, wary of speaking up. Adrian’s words alone could easily offend everyone present. Even when facing these powerful experts, Adrian showed no trace of fear. If word of this confrontation spread, people would be utterly shocked."Then we’ll just watch and see what you plan to do," one of the immortals replied, their tone sharp and menacing as if warning Adrian to lead the way or risk being kille
As the blood-colored dragon surged toward Adrian, a barrier suddenly materialized in the air, blocking its path. The dragon slammed against it, unable to advance any further.Seeing this, Adrian smirked coldly. "You think you can touch me? Do you even know your place?"His confident smile left everyone stunned. It was clear that Adrian had anticipated the dragon's failure to break through the barrier, which explained his unwavering composure all along. His unwavering confidence had come from being able to discern everything clearly, which left the onlookers in awe of his foresight and terrifying perceptiveness."Rrrraaagh!” The blood-colored dragon thrashed in frustration, desperately trying to charge forward and tear Adrian to pieces. Its rage was both terrifying and shocking, leaving people wondering what was truly happening.Boom! Boom! Boom!The void trembled as the dragon slammed relentlessly against an unseen barrier, struggling to break free and reach Adrian. The scene was
The man's observation was spot on. If Adrian refused to cooperate, even the Astrals would be powerless against him. The crowd exchanged surprised glances, realizing just how formidable Adrian was. His actions demonstrated an incredibly strong-willed personality; if he chose not to do something, even someone of a higher stage couldn't compel him. This was evident from the earlier scene, showcasing Adrian’s resolute nature.The faces of the two Astrals darkened with anger. Adrian had disrespected them, and now the crowd showed them less reverence. However, they understood that killing Adrian wouldn’t help them escape. Keeping him alive might be their only chance.The air trembled as Adrian turned to dismantle the formation. Power surged wildly from all directions.Boom!The formation rippled violently. Adrian smirked coldly and said, "Mr. Tyron, shall we go?" Tyron, hearing the call, swiftly followed. Adrian moved at incredible speed, and within moments, he had flown hundreds of me
"Everyone's fate is different.” The elderly man sighed. "If you can make it through, consider that a fortune in itself. Make the most of it, everyone. Who knows what your future holds?" His wisdom was undeniable.In the distance, Adrian watched the crowd. Without a second thought, the group rushed toward the distant staircase. They remembered the old man’s advice as they hurried up the steps. It seemed the stronger someone was, the faster and higher they could climb. However, that wasn’t necessarily an advantage. Some in the group were weaker, but that didn’t mean they were at a disadvantage.As they climbed rapidly, their movements became frantic, as if disaster loomed overhead. The staircase shimmered ominously, and terrifying forces descended from the sky, pressing down on those already ascending. Under this immense pressure, everyone struggled, barely able to catch their breath. Some had already begun to fall, including those nearing the Astral Stage, who were forced back.The s
The mounting pressure was truly terrifying. For the average person, ascending these steps with ease was anything but simple.By now, the two experts had reached the 100th step, both frowning. Even at this height, they still hadn’t reached the end, and they wondered how many more steps were ahead of them.One expert, growing frustrated, muttered, "This can't be right. There might not be that many steps left. We’re probably just too tense!"The other expert gave a slight smile. "You might be right. No need to overthink it. Let’s just keep going."With great difficulty, the two pressed on, moving step by step. Meanwhile, the rest of the group below was advancing frantically, but it became clear that those who were weaker couldn’t make much more progress. They seemed stuck, endlessly climbing without purpose.Unable to ascend any higher, they had no idea what would happen next. Perhaps they’d have to wait a month to be teleported out. As for those still capable of moving upward, they
As Adrian pulled Tyron up the stairs, a terrifying force rippled through the latter. The pressure on Adrian was immense, and Tyron felt deeply uncomfortable and embarrassed."Adrian, aren’t you bearing double the gravity by doing this? Can you handle it?" Tyron asked, his voice filled with guilt. He never imagined he'd be relying on Adrian like this, and the thought filled him with shame. Adrian was enduring far more pressure than he was, which felt unfair.Adrian smiled calmly. "Don’t worry. You came with me, so I’m responsible for getting you out. As long as I have life, so do you."A wave of emotion washed over Tyron. With a friend like Adrian, there was not much more he could ask for. Even if it meant facing death, it wouldn’t matter.Looking at Adrian, Tyron felt a surge of admiration. Adrian was so powerful, yet Tyron felt helpless in comparison. The guilt weighed heavily on him.Below, the crowd was in shock."Oh my! Adrian is truly a peerless genius! He’s dragging someone
The scene was utterly shocking. What had Adrian meant by his confident words?Suddenly, Adrian's entire body glowed with a golden light that spread to Tyron and filled the space around them. Their speed increased again. In a short time, they reached the 23rd step, yet Adrian showed no signs of strain. He remained as powerful as ever. But just then, a terrifying force descended from the air above. Adrian's expression became grim, and Tyron was equally stunned. Under the immense gravity, Tyron felt as insignificant as an ant.Boom!The crushing gravity tore through the air, shattering everything in its path, leaving the onlookers in awe.Swoosh!Ahead of them, one of the Astrals sneered. "Do you really think you can defy the heavens? You're not qualified to ascend this cloud staircase. You're overestimating yourself!" he mocked.Adrian's eyes flashed with determination and anger. "I don’t need anyone to tell me how to handle my affairs." His speed then surged, and he shot into th
Judging from Adrian’s words, it was clear he wasn’t just making a small move. Suddenly, a terrifying force surged from him, flooding the air above.In an instant, this immense power swept Tyron along with Adrian as they shot upward at an astonishing speed. Tyron was stunned, fear creeping into his voice. “Adrian! The force of the cloud steps must have increased by a hundredfold!”Ascending like this was incredibly dangerous, and Tyron’s face paled as he realized Adrian’s plan. Adrian intended to leap directly to the 130th step, aiming for the reward waiting there. However, the power at that height was overwhelming. Forcing their way up like this could easily result in death, or worse, they could be thrown from the staircase altogether. During the fall, the crushing gravity of the void would remain, almost ensuring a fatal outcome. Many who had fallen before had ended up gravely injured, and Adrian surely knew this. Yet, he pressed on, undeterred, as if even the worst-case scenario di
