However, even so, the gap quickly became apparent once they reached the 6,000th level of the Tianti Road.
Theoretically, one needs to be at Tier 10 Golden Elixir to qualify to enter the level above 6,000. Of course, there are exceptions, and some with good talent can reach it at Tier 9 or 8. But the higher they go, every ten or a hundred levels, the pressure they face is much greater than before the 6,000th level. After the 6,000th level, the pressure came not only from outside the body.
“From the 6,000th to the 7,000th level, the pressure from the Tianti Will also affects the consciousness. That’s why it’s easier for those who’ve cultivated runes to go up beyond the 6,000th level,” a spectating cultivator said.
“Without cultivating runes, it’s still possible to force one’s way up, but the difficulty is much greater.”
Sure enough, there were originally over a thousand people at the 6,000th level, but as time went by, the number was quickly reduced.
Every 100 levels, tens of people were ejected.
Although there were people who slowly climbed up from below the 6,000th level, in less than half a day, the total number of people above the 6,000th level had halved.
Jian Yiyi and the others reached the 7,000th level and began to recuperate, waiting to adapt before setting off again.
“Senior Sister, look, that guy is still there.” Next to Jian Yiyi, a sword-wielding blue clothed female said.
Jian Yiyi looked down and saw Qin Changqing following the crowd, coming up to the 6,700th level.
“He can actually still hold on. Is he really only at Tier 6 Golden Elixir?” The blue clothed female said in surprise.
“How strange.” Jian Yiyi muttered to herself.
She found that Qin Changqing was different from others.
Even those without runes and at Tier 10 Golden Elixir had difficulty climbing step by step.
But looking at Qin Changqing, he was leisurely walking, even looking around, admiring the scenery while going up.
The difference was obvious to anyone with clear eyesight.
“How amazing, how did he do that?” On the side of Qiushui Pavilion, Lin Ziyan’s eyes also unconsciously fell on Qin Changqing.
Although her mother had repeatedly warned her not to get involved with Qin Changqing, she was indeed curious about him. After all, according to the historical data of Qiushui Pavilion, only those with cultivated runes were able to reach the 7,000th level.
“How did Brother Qin cultivate his skills?” Qing Ning couldn’t help but ask, looking at Qin Changqing walking step by step.
Right next to her was Nangong Xue.
As for Qin Lingshuang and Muling, the two of them were at the 6,500th level.
Qin Lingshuang’s cultivation level was too low, but with the help of the Sword Body, he could still keep climbing, albeit at a slower pace. Muling, on the other hand, was only at Tier 9 Golden Elixir and was reaching her limit.
“Brother has always been mysterious.” Nangong Xue said, then felt that she was wrong and corrected herself, “Actually, brother is super capable.”
Qing Ning looked at her with some curiosity, “I never would have thought that you would eventually find a Taoist Couple.”
Nangong Xue pondered for a moment and said, “Some things might be predetermined. ”
The first time they reunited on Tiankui Mountain, Qin Changqing’s breaking of the Array Formation amazed her.
Later, he even helped refine elixirs.
There were two bets, and Qin Changqing’s goal was always clear.
Up to now, Nangong Xue felt as if she had witnessed the impossible taking place. Qin Changqing had gone from being a useless senior brother on Xuanyi
Peak to someone who attracted the attention of countless talents in Tianchuan State. She believed that he would become even more dazzling in the future.
“Destiny, huh…” Qing Ning was noncommittal.She recalled that Liu Mengxian had also said something similar.
“If he can climb even farther, it will be beneficial for the sect. Master has been working so hard for the sect’s promotion, and now there is finally hope,” Qingning thought to herself.
“Eh? Why aren’t you guys moving?”
As Qin Changqing stepped onto the 7,000th floor, he saw that there were less than 200 people left.
All of these 200 people.clearly had cultivation bases, except for him, an oddball who not only did not have a cultivation base, but hadn’t even reached the Tier 10 Golden Elixir.
As for those with slightly weaker strength, Qin Lingshuang was still at Tier 6,700, Mu Ling couldn’t hold on any longer, and the Lingxiao Sect had only 12 people left. Apart from him, Nangong Xue, and Qingning, there were three people from Taixuan Peak, and the remaining six were geniuses from other peaks.
The Dayan Dynasty still had nine people left, the Piaomiao Sect had eight people, the Taixuan Sect had nine people, the Leihuo Sect had ten people, the Qiushui Pavilion had 15 people, and the Wanjian Pavilion had the most, with 20 people still remaining.
As for the others, most of them were from demon sects. There were only a few loose cultivators left at this point.
Qin Changqing noticed a woman dressed in white, who he had been aware of since they reached the 6,000th floor. She had always been alone on the side, and she didn’t react when Nangong Aotian said he wanted to select people.
Now, she had silently reached the 7,000th floor, and it seemed that she was faster than most, just behind Jian Yiyi’s leading group.
“This woman’s strength must be quite impressive,” Qin Changqing suddenly felt.
Seeming to sense his gaze, the woman in white woke up from her meditation, opened her eyes, and looked at him.
She exchanged a brief glance with him before quickly looking away, completely unaffected by Qin Changqing’s handsome appearance.
“She’s quite pretty, but also mysterious. I’m not sure if she’s from a sect or a loose cultivator.”
As Qin Changqing was pondering, Nangong Aotian suddenly said, “You’re still holding on.”
“Hehe- Why wouldn’t I be here as long as you’re here?”
Qin Changqing laughed lightly, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely go further than you.”
“Hmph! We’ll see about that.” Nangong Aotian didn’t attack Qin Changqing. At this point on the 7 ,oooth floor, any unnecessary consumption would be fatal. His goal was to be the first one, to reach the highest position.
After saying that, Nangong Aotian sat down again and prepared to wait a little while before starting out.
“Wow! You talk a big game, but you can’t even handle this?” Qin Changqing taunted sarcastically, “Third Prince, this is only the 7,000th floor. With your prowess, shouldn’t you be rushing to the top in one breath?”
Nangong Aotian’s brow furrowed, knowing that Qin Changqing was deliberately provoking him. He didn’t want to deal with it, but he saw Qin Changqing suddenly step onto the 7 ,001st floor, and he couldn’t help himself any longer, as he rushed out after him.
His speed was much faster than Qin Changqing’s and quickly advanced to the 7,100th floor. Suddenly, a mental illusion appeared, pulling him into a virtual world.
From the 7,000th to the 8,000th floor, the Tianti Road would occasionally produce illusory spaces, applying pressure on the cultivator’s consciousness twice. This pressure was very strong, so according to past experience, climbers would usually adjust for two to three days when they reached the 7 ,oooth floor. The 7,000th floor also had an illusory space, but it was much weaker, obviously meant for people to adapt to.
It took Nangong Aotian a great deal of effort to break free from the illusionary world. As he turned back to look, he wanted to glare down at Qin Changqing from a higher position, only to find out that the latter was sitting at the 7,002nd floor, chatting and laughing with Nangong Xue.
“Apprentice Sister, look, there’s an idiot who ran up.”
At this moment, not only did others think that Qin Changqing was shameless, even Nangong Xue felt that her senior martial brother was far more shameless now than when he was on the mountain.
Senior Brother, aren’t we supposed to… Never mind, your achievement is greater, so you have the final say..
