Chapter 623 - 600 Displaying Their Talent (1/3)
Guo Yuhou and Zi Yingming both danced with their hands, Divine Intent shimmered above their heads, fully unleashing their battle power. Their slightly delayed speed immediately surged, not only catching up with Zhong Gufeng and his two companions but also leaving them far behind.
However, Zhong Gufeng and his companions were not worried at all, they would never disrupt their own pace because of others.
In a trial like this, where gravity increases step by step, rhythm is extremely important.
A good rhythm can help one go further.
Guo Yuhou and Zi Yingming moved faster and faster, distancing the three behind them even more—they couldn’t stop now. After exerting their strength to the utmost, they stopped at the fifty-sixth bluestone, only three steps short of Zhang Yuting, and they hadn’t even yet used their Immortal Artifacts!
At this point, they couldn’t keep their treasures hidden any longer—there was no advancing without using them! They both brought out the high-tier Immortal Artifacts especially given by their families for this journey; a torn piece of jade silk and a clean jade bottle. Once activated, the jade silk circled Zi Yingming, emitting bursts of Golden Light that enveloped him completely, while Guo Yuhou’s jade bottle sprinkled dewdrops that rippled upon hitting the bluestones.
With the Immortal Artifacts in action, they maintained their bold and rapid momentum, making it to the seventy-third bluestone. Although they lifted their feet, they couldn’t bring them down, as this step might crush them completely!
And this was only the seventy-fourth bluestone!
If it had been the last one, they might have risked their lives, as stepping over it would mean victory. But now, even if they were to step over, there were still twenty-six more stones, each seemingly as vast as a great trench.
They halted, unwilling to retreat, relying on their Immortal Artifacts to grit their teeth and hold on.
