Chapter 752: Again
In the company of Mo Xuan and Yuan Guang, Li Pin set off for the Supreme Ladder in the Sacred Flame Hall of the Astral World.
As they journeyed, news of Li Pin's return to challenge the Supreme Ladder after thirty years spread like wildfire, quickly sweeping across the entire Humanity Sanctum.
Had it been any other Astral God returning from a thirty-year seclusion to face the Supreme Ladder, it likely wouldn't have drawn much attention. But Li Pin was different. He had cultivated for less than two hundred stellar years. Over the past few decades, his fame had skyrocketed due to his rank on the Divine Race's Black List, where he stood at number nine. His name was now on everyone's lips.
If his mere return from seclusion had already attracted a steady stream of visitors and onlookers, the news of his challenge to the Supreme Ladder was bound to draw an even larger crowd.
Moreover, as Li Pin attempted the Supreme Ladder for the second time, the true reason behind his previous failure at the sixty-sixth step began to circulate. Under these circumstances, it didn't take long for countless people to be stirred.

On the mountain where Luo Shenxi resided, a young girl hurriedly flew up.
Before she even arrived, she had already used her divine senses to transmit the news to the palace. "Shenxi! Shenxi! Hurry, Li Pin has come out of seclusion and is going to challenge the Supreme Ladder again!"
Luo Shenxi immediately opened her eyes, ending her cultivation. "Li Pin!"
Ever since she learned that Li Pin had surpassed her and claimed the ninth spot on the Black List, she had thrown herself into even more intense training. For decades, she had relentlessly cultivated, sparing neither day nor night.
Now, hearing the girl's words, she stood up and spoke softly. " So, you're finally answering the world's doubts about you? At least your courage to challenge the Supreme Ladder as soon as you emerge from seclusion is admirable. It's no wonder the Black Abyss Highlord holds you in such high regard."
As she spoke, she had already left the palace, heading to meet the incoming girl.
