Adrian's expression turned cold, a trace of killing intent flickering in his eyes as he gazed at the distant mountain peak. His look was resolute, void of any other emotions.

To Adrian, if someone sought to kill him, he would strike first. He refused to sit idly and be targeted.

The group raced toward their destination—the tallest mountain peak in the distance.

Beams of radiant light streaked through the air, representing spirit treasures to the crowd. Their urgency reflected their determination not to let any opportunity slip away.

Opportunities like these were rare, and they were intent on making the most of them. Having entered this place with great difficulty, they weren't about to let it go to waste.

Adrian, however, seemed less concerned with the treasures after obtaining the cyan longsword. For him, treasures depended on fate. If they were meant for him, they would come.

Occasionally, Adrian reached out into the void, guided by intuition, to see if he could grasp anything.

    Gentle breezes swirled around them.Adrian scanned his surroundings, his gaze tinged with curiosity as he sensed the rippling energy in the air.Adrian smiled faintly. He could tell these breezes were no ordinary phenomenon."Haha, just some petty spirits. Come out already!" Finnian said with a chuckle.A tremendous force burst forth, shattering the void with a deafening crash.Everyone stared at the scene in shock, unable to comprehend what had just happened.They hadn't expected such an intense reaction. The sight before them was nothing short of astounding.The swirling breezes in the void began spinning wildly.Andy laughed and said, "Haha, no need to worry. Adrian, those are just wandering spirits from the mountain. They're small fry—nothing to fear."Adrian's eyes widened slightly in surprise. He hadn't expected such entities to exist, confirming that the situation was indeed unusual.Suddenly, Adrian punched fiercely to his side, sensing a breeze drawing dangerously cl

    Finnian's eyes flickered with caution due to Adrian's response."The Ziphyan factions, though virtuous in name, are rooted in the forbidden lands of the Central Continent. The Ziphyus Himself was no ordinary being—his one hand could suppress the heavens and the earth," he slowly remarked."Only the Saints of Sacred Lunaland are said to rival him in strength. For you, a young man, to have acquired even a sliver of their teachings speaks volumes about your skill."The elder's words conveyed genuine admiration, but Adrian chuckled modestly. "Haha, it's nothing—just a few simple tricks I've picked up."His tone suggested he had no significant expertise.Nearby, Andy smirked and added, "Haha, Adrian, I knew from the start you were extraordinary."After all, the Ziphyan factions are full of hypocrites, spouting lofty ideals. You don't strike me as one of them. You seem far too approachable to share their sanctimonious ways."Adrian smiled faintly. "It seems the reputation of the Ziphy

    The golden light seemed to crush the entire void, and even the sky trembled.As the group neared the ominous mountain peak, they saw waves of power pulsating from its summit. None had expected the mountain to shake with such terrifying intensity.Finnian smirked. "It's time to strike it rich, isn't it?"Without hesitation, he transformed into a streak of golden light and shot toward the peak.Nearby, Andy fumed. "You old scoundrel! We came here together, and now you're pulling this stunt? Shameless!"Before his words had fully settled, Andy bolted forward as well. "Adrian, hurry up! Don't let that old fox get ahead. When it comes to treasures, he's the last person to play fair!"Adrian replied coolly, "Is that so? I'll take my time."Adrian's calm demeanor and slight smirk betrayed his indifference.To him, this place didn't seem particularly important. What was his would remain his, and what wasn't meant for him wouldn't stay in his hands.With that mindset, Adrian proceeded

    A middle-aged man nearby smiled faintly and said, "Sir, there's no need to be so anxious. When it comes to opportunities, it's not just about seizing them first. Sometimes, it's also about fate."The youth's expression shifted upon hearing these words.If anyone else had claimed the opportunity, he might have let it pass. But to his surprise, it was Adrian, the very person entangled in a karmic connection with him earlier.This realization filled him with intense displeasure. "I'm the Sacred Lunaland's Holy Son, and I've never suffered such humiliation!"Even if you're my protector, you shouldn't speak this way. I will kill that brat, and no one will stop me!"The middle-aged man sighed, his gaze sharpening as Adrian became the Sacred Lunaland's sworn enemy. To him, Adrian had to be eliminated without question.He shook his head slightly, reflecting on the youth before him.Despite his age, the young man had already reached the Void Stage and could kill enemies two levels above

    At that moment, Andy's words revealed just how terrifying the staircase truly was.Adrian's expression showed surprise as he tried to comprehend the situation.What was the nature of this staircase? There seemed to be some mysterious force at play, explaining why both Andy and Finnian were struggling.Andy cautioned, "Adrian, have your men stay at the base for now. Don't let them rush up. The dangers on this staircase aren't trivial. If they ascend recklessly, there's no telling what danger awaits them."If someone triggers those dangers, it could be catastrophic. The staircase is weighed down by crushing gravity, and at random intervals, it strikes with inexplicable force. Their ascent could end in disaster."As Andy spoke, Adrian glanced at Tyler's group and grew serious. "Sir Tyler, stay here for now. Rushing up blindly might lead to unforeseen consequences. Let me ascend first, scout the situation, and see if it's feasible to bring you all up later."Finnian chuckled lightly.

    No one expected Adrian to act so recklessly, charging forward as if everything before him was insignificant.However, Andy couldn't condone Adrian's behavior. He was practically inviting disaster. A single misstep could shatter his body and end his life prematurely.Yet Adrian's gaze remained unwavering. He wasn't concerned about the risks. In his mind, as long as he believed in his decision, nothing else mattered.At that moment, the void trembled violently.Everything around seemed caught in a chaotic vibration.To the onlookers, Adrian's reckless charge into the unknown was incomprehensible. But Adrian appeared resolute in his desire to test his limits."I'll be fine. I can handle this," Adrian said calmly.Before Andy could respond, Adrian leapt forward, skipping over the step where Andy stood and hurtling directly into the void above.Tyler stood stunned. He hadn't expected Adrian to act so recklessly, crossing the steps and plunging ahead without hesitation."Adrian, you

    This scene stunned Andy. His mind froze as he watched Adrian.Despite being only at the Void Stage, Adrian radiated an unprecedented air of mystery.Even Finnian, observing from above, showed surprise in his gaze."This young man is truly extraordinary. It seems I misjudged him," Finnian remarked as Adrian took another step.His movements were delicate, like walking on thin ice. His body trembled slightly, but his gaze remained unwavering.Tyler and the others below watched in awe.Andy's worry surged, and he wanted to warn Adrian against such reckless behavior. Continuing this way could be fatal, as the pressure would only intensify with each step.Suddenly, a sound sliced through the void.Figures from Sacred Lunaland appeared, led by a young man wielding a sword in his left hand and a fan in his right.With a flick of his fan, he summoned a gust that swept across the area.In the distance, streaks of green light illuminated the sky."So powerful!"More figures descended

    Upon closer inspection, the scene left everyone speechless. It was hard to fathom what was unfolding before them.The ground trembled violently beneath a powerful force.Waves of immense energy surged toward the youth in green robes, yet he remained steadfast.Adrian was stunned. As he glanced at the youth, he realized this man was far from ordinary. His aura steadily rose, already nearing the late Void Stage and continuing to grow stronger."What kind of lightning is this? Why are such waves of power rippling through the celestial staircase?" someone asked in shock.Endless bolts of lightning rained down like a relentless storm, seemingly tearing the surroundings apart.The deafening roar echoed as the heavens shook uncontrollably.At that moment, the void seemed entirely consumed by lightning.The youth in green robes fixed his cold gaze on Adrian and sneered. "How dare an ant like you stand in my way?"His icy expression deepened as he locked eyes with Adrian. In the next i

    The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

    Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b

    At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv

    The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

    Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

    The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his

    Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

    Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused

    "What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
