Adrian’s determination was evident from his words.A torrent of terrifying power surged, creating an atmosphere of sheer horror. Adrian’s azure energy flared and mingled with golden energy in a wild, chaotic display. He was ready to take that crucial step forward.“This is impossible! I don’t think he can make it!” an elderly man with white hair exclaimed. Nearby, others were equally astonished. Adrian’s actions defied all rational judgment, and everyone felt he had lost his mind. They couldn’t believe he could achieve such a feat.Adrian was enveloped in swirling azure and golden light. In the next moment, these two forces merged into a radiant spectacle in the sky. Then, Adrian and Tyron were propelled forward with astonishing speed. They managed to ascend two more cloud steps.As they approached the third step, Tyron realized the immense force crashing down with incredible ferocity.“Incredible! That’s forty thousand pounds of gravity, and Adrian is withstanding it!” someone
The Astrals had never expected Adrian to be so powerful. In a short span, he had leaped across five cloud steps in a single move. Though it seemed success was within Adrian’s grasp, the Astrals were determined to stop him.“Should we make a move now?” one Astral asked, his expression darkening.“If we act now, the gravity will likely target both of us. If the current force of fifty thousand pounds doubles to a hundred thousand, even we won’t be able to withstand it,” the other Astral replied.Both were on the 158th cloud step, where the gravity was so intense it could snap their necks at any moment. The gravity on the cloud steps increased with each step higher. The further one climbed, the more unbearable the force became, making each step a struggle. This explained why even the strongest Astral found it difficult to ascend higher.For the Astrals, recklessly charging ahead could have disastrous consequences. But Adrian pressed forward without hesitation, driven by a fear of falli
Everyone was speechless at the actions of these two men. If everyone acted like this, the world would surely descend into madness.The sound of gravity crashing down echoed through the void. Even from below, the onlookers could feel the immense gravity from the cloud steps above, pressing down with such force it seemed to shatter their very souls.The crowd watched in stunned disbelief as Adrian climbed the steps with Tyron in tow. His entire body was bathed in golden light, but suddenly, there was a cracking sound from his hand again. A horrific force struck Adrian's head, causing him to lose consciousness for a moment. In that instant, his ankle gave way, and he plummeted downward.The crowd gasped in horror, and Tyron was equally shocked.“Adrian!” Tyron shouted, channeling his power to fight against the relentless gravity.“His hand! It’s completely shattered!” a middle-aged man exclaimed in shock.“The force must be around sixty thousand pounds right now. This level of force
The Astrals were stunned. They could hardly believe that Adrian had reached the 150th step.“Is this brat really going to make it up here?” one of the Astrals said grimly, as the situation grew increasingly unfavorable for them.“If he actually makes it up here, we’ll need to put all our effort into killing him on the spot. Otherwise, he’ll become a future threat,” the second Astral warned.Adrian was a genius, and if they didn’t deal with him now, he might become a significant problem for them later.“Alright!” The two Astrals nodded and exchanged a determined glance.Tyron, still trying to grasp what had just happened, looked around in astonishment. Standing on the 150th step, what had seemed impossible with Adrian now appeared to be within reach. “Adrian, the spiritual energy around us seems much denser. The higher we go, the more likely we are to break through the cloud steps,” he observed.Adrian smiled faintly and replied, “That’s probably true. But remember, this is only
Tyron’s eyes sparkled with excitement at the surge in his power, and he looked at Adrian with immense gratitude.“Adrian, those two haven’t moved,” Tyron said, noting that the two Astrals were still watching them, seemingly waiting for their next move.Adrian sneered. “It’s just petty minds at work. They’re probably waiting for us to make a move so they can strike us down.”Tyron was surprised by Adrian’s insight. The Astrals radiated spiritual energy with an underlying murderous intent, signaling their plot to kill them.“What should we do then?” Tyron asked, concerned about the danger of continuing forward with such formidable opponents. Staying put also meant being trapped.Adrian’s expression hardened. “Let’s push forward. Even if these two are powerful, if we reach their level, the gravitational force we face should be around ten thousand pounds. No one knows what will happen then.”Tyron fell silent, considering Adrian’s words. After some thought, he agreed with Adrian’s pl
Next, Adrian and Tyron climbed another step on the staircase. Suddenly, a wave of crushing gravity hit them. Adrian spat out blood and turned pale.“Haha! I bet that brat won’t make it. Looks like he’ll die on this staircase before we even have to lift a finger,” one of the Astrals said coldly.The other sneered. “Exactly! At this rate, he’s doomed. Watching a genius like him perish right before our eyes will be a real treat.”Their voices were filled with malice, clearly enjoying Adrian’s suffering. They were thrilled by the thought of Adrian being crushed by the staircase’s pressure.Despite the terrifying force, Adrian showed no sign of giving up. Tyron, watching from the side, was stunned. He realized that with someone like Adrian, his only option was to follow and push forward.“Adrian, can you hold on? If not, let me take the lead and shield you from this gravity,” Tyron said, genuinely concerned about Adrian’s condition. The situation was clearly dire, and continuing could
It was clear Adrian was planning something.“Alright. Since you can do this, trust me. Focus all your power on your sword. When I give the signal, strike without hesitation,” Adrian instructed confidently.Tyron understood immediately. It was clear that Adrian was outlining their next move. His expression turned serious. With the decision made, all that remained was to act.Whoosh!Power surged through Adrian as if he had abandoned all restraint. In an instant, he unleashed a punch that shattered the gravity’s grip. He took Tyron with him and continued climbing, effortlessly reaching the 156th step in a single bound.They were now just two steps away from the 158th step.“He’s so strong!” The crowd below gasped in awe at Adrian’s sudden display of extraordinary strength.The Astrals ahead, however, were filled with icy killing intent. Adrian’s terrifying talent only hardened their resolve to eliminate him. For them, nothing was more important than taking Adrian down. Yet, they r
Tyron's body tensed. He knew he had to keep pace with Adrian now, as they were on the brink of confronting the powerful Astrals. It would be incredibly challenging for Adrian to face them alone, so Tyron understood he needed to assist.Helping Adrian was also helping himself. They needed to overcome the suppression of these formidable Astrals, who would certainly try to prevent anyone from surpassing them. The only way to break through was to defeat them. Though Tyron didn’t fully understand Adrian’s plan, he had no choice but to trust him.“Hmph! Ignorant boy, you’re about to die!” one of the Astrals shouted, his eyes blazing with anger.Adrian suddenly stepped into the air, aiming for the 158th cloud step. The crowd below tensed, anticipating the impending clash. The mere thought of it sent chills down their spines.Boom!A terrifying force erupted in the air as if shattering everything in its path. Adrian ascended, enduring the crushing weight of tens of thousands of pounds. In
