Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

1Chen Yu felt sharp gazes land on him one by one. Most of them were filled with deep malice.    0

    

Among these gazes, Chen Yu felt a cold and cruel killing intent. As he looked closer, he saw Du Jueqing standing on the stone platform on the second step with a gloomy face.    

    

Chen Yu, on the other hand, smiled at Du Jueqing. Even though the two sides were very far apart, but with the vision of both sides, they could clearly see each other's faces.    

    

Seeing the smile on Chen Yu's face, Du Jueqing's gaze became even gloomier.    

    

Chen Yu strode up the last hundred steps.    

    

But very quickly, Chen Yu stopped once again, because a Outer Sect disciple who wore a look of exhaustion and anger blocked his way up the four steps.    

    

The Supreme Force of this person was affected by gravity, causing the flow of the Supreme Force to circulate extremely weakly. However, his strength should be at the ninth level of the Heavenly Astral Stage without a doubt, otherwise, he would not have been able to reach this position.    

    

The smile on Chen Yu's face suddenly stopped, and he coldly stared at this warrior.    

    

Even after waiting for ten seconds, the warrior still showed no signs of moving away.    

    

Chen Yu didn't wait any longer. With a stride, he crossed three steps and threw out a punch.    

    

His tendons and bones trembled as a tremendous force exploded from this punch.    

    

The martial artist also punched out. Similarly, there was no True Divine Spirit Qi released from his fist, even the tip of his fist was not condensed from the True Divine Spirit Qi. This meant that the warrior was severely affected by the gravity that shrouded the Sky Stairway, causing him to be unable to release his aura outwards.    

    

However, although this martial artist's boxing style was obviously heavy, his power was still quite strong and he had a boxing aura as large as a mountain.    

    

BOOM *    

    

The fist did not make a fancy collision, Chen Yu's body shook for a moment before he started to walk, while the martial artist flew backwards, blood spewing out of his mouth.    

    

On this final Sky Stairway, the gravity was more than double that of the second section. In this kind of environment, the power to attack between warriors was not related to the Supreme Force, it only depended on the strength of the body.    

    

As a result, if one's physique wasn't strong enough, it would be difficult for them to climb the last one hundred steps, even if they had the strength of the ninth level of the Heavenly Astral Stage.    

    

After defeating the enemy, Chen Yu continued to move forward.    

    

Due to Chen Yu's display of strength, the other warriors were shocked and hesitant.    

    

"Stop him, don't let him reach the top!" At this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out. The person who spoke was Du Jueqing.    

    

He looked down coldly at Chen Yu and said: "This child's hands are stained with the blood of the Outer Sect disciples and Branch Sect disciples, we cannot let him use just a year's time to advance to become an inner sect, if not, how will we, who spent at least three years' time to reach the top?"    

    

As these words came out, many of the martial artists revealed expressions of agreement.    

    

Especially those Outer Sect disciples who had already occupied a spot; After all, if Chen Yu continued going up, he would definitely take away one of their positions. Although it was only a one percent chance of being selected by Chen Yu, it still existed.    

    

At the end of the day, Chen Yu had offended too many people and the momentum was too great. Most of the people present were not willing to see Chen Yu become an inner disciple in one go.    

    

"Senior Du is right, we can't let Chen Yu succeed. It's not even an hour until sunset. This Chen Yu is too arrogant, he even chose this time to come up!" Another martial artist standing on the 50th step said.    

    

"If everyone were to attack, no matter how monstrous Chen Yu is, he would never be able to reach the top of the Heaven Stairway!" Another person said.    

    

"Each disciple wants to become an inner disciple, but how different can it be if they were a year earlier or a year later? Everyone might as well put down the battle and teach this villain surnamed Chen a ruthless lesson! " This sentence was a bit of a lie. There was a huge difference between becoming an inner disciple one year earlier and one year later. However, at this time, no one objected.    

    

"…"    

    

Amidst the echoing voices, many martial artists were already moved. But, for the time being, no one was willing to take the lead.    

    

"Zhao Heng, why aren't you attacking?" Du Jueqing's expression suddenly became serious as he yelled at a fighter not far from Chen Yu.    

    

A warrior was taken aback. He raised his head and looked at Du Jueqing and then Zhao Heng before clenching his teeth and slapping the Storage Bag. Then, he took out a long sword.    

    

Chen Yu was still moving forward.    

    

"Kill!" As Zhao Heng's saber hacked down, the light in the saber shone as if it was made of water, containing a boundless saber intent.    

    

However, the speed and might of this slash were completely different from those outside the Heaven Stairway. Be it the blade intent or the blade aura, both were more or less affected by the omnipresent gravitational force, and the blade aura was even dimmer.    

    

The moment Zhao Heng made his move, the other warriors also started to take out their weapons and glared at Chen Yu like tigers stalking their prey.    

    

This slash was still a lot stronger than the one from the Eighth Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage cultivator, but was still affected by the gravity. Chen Yu took the opportunity to take a step forward, perfectly dodging the slash, and then casually slapped his palm.    

    

Peng Chen Yu's palm hit the blade squarely and deflected the blade. Then, Chen Yu took a step forward and punched out.    

    

Zhao Heng did not panic even though his attack failed. With his left hand, he clawed downward and the sound of wind and thunder could be heard, sealing off Chen Yu's path of attack.    

    

It was no wonder that he was a powerhouse at the ninth level of Heavenly Astral Stage that had reached the peak of the Heaven Stairway.    

    

However, Zhao Heng couldn't unleash seventy to eighty percent of his power due to the suppression of the Supreme Force under the gravitational environment.    

    

Ka-cha    

    

Chen Yu's punch landed squarely on Zhao Heng's claw. Instantly, the sound of bones shattering could be heard, and Zhao Heng was thrown to the side.    

    

Chen Yu's strength had already increased by more than ten thousand Jin after the hundred blood flames had tempered his body and soul. As for how much he had achieved, Chen Yu had no way of knowing.    

    

In this kind of environment which suppresses and weakens the strength of warriors, although Chen Yu's True Divine Spirit Qi was also suppressed, this kind of suppression was much weaker than the other Outer Sect disciples. Relatively speaking, on the Heaven Stairway, Chen Yu's strength was actually much stronger than all the Outer Sect disciples.    

    

Unfortunately, Du Jueqing and the other Outer Sect disciples did not understand the situation and wanted to stop Chen Yu from reaching the top.    

    

To Chen Yu, time was of the essence. Everything else was of no threat to him.    

    

After defeating Zhao Heng, Chen Yu patted the Storage Bag and it flew out. He strode towards the last one hundred steps.    

    

As he walked past Zhao Heng, a sword beam descended down from above.    

    

Wind Stabilization Blade slashed out, slashing the wave with her blade.    

    

The warrior on the ninth level of Heavenly Astral Stage was sent flying with his sword, falling towards the edge of the stairs.    

    

Chen Yu did not stop at all and went up another step.    

    

The sword in his hand stabbed down towards Chen Yu. The speed of the sword was surprisingly fast, and the sword's momentum was light, with a hint of ethereal. When the sword's tip came down, it actually created three sword shadows.    

    

Chen Yu could tell that this person's sword techniques were pretty good. This Superior Grade Sword Technique was already at the level of 'lifting heavy into the air as though it were light'. However, in this sort of place, the effects of such an agile sword technique were even greater.    

    

Ding, after the sword and saber clashed, the blade force swept across, sweeping past the black-faced warrior's body, causing the latter's expression to change greatly. He hurriedly retreated, under the force of gravity, his body staggered and almost fell to the ground.    

    

Chen Yu continued to walk up one step.    

    

A thin martial artist shot out his sword with hesitation.    

    

Ding! His long sword flew up and was pulled by gravity to the ground. The martial artist staggered backwards.    

    

One slash, all of them!    

    

To defeat a person with a single slash from each level, there was no need for a second slash!    

    

On the last one hundred steps, the faces of each of the peak Outer Sect gradually changed, as many people gasped.    

    

This kind of strength was just too unbelievable. It was as if Chen Yu wasn't affected by gravity at all, while the others were all bound by gravity, as if their hands and feet were tied.    

    

Many people also came to their senses and understood that on this Heaven Stairway, Chen Yu's strength did not decrease in comparison to the other Outer Sect disciples.    

    

Thus, at this moment, many people became silent.    

    

Du Jueqing's face was so dark that water was about to drip out of it!    

    

At the top of the Heaven Stairway, in the position that represented the strongest inner disciple spot, a tall and sturdy man's eyes shone brightly. He stared at Chen Yu who was slowly walking up, and the corner of his mouth raised into a smile.    

    

From top to bottom, on the third step, there was a woman with a beautiful face and an empty air. Her eyes were filled with curiosity and expectation.    

    

PENG    

    

Another Outer Sect disciple was struck by Chen Yu's fist and was sent flying. He landed on the stairs and let out a miserable groan.    

    

Chen Yu did not stop his steps at all as he repelled one person with each step.    

    

Some of the Outer Sect experts who were already in position were already sweating profusely.    

    

All of a sudden, Chen Yu was walking up the stairs with his green robe fluttering in the wind. A girl was standing there empty-handed. There was a trace of complicated emotion in her cold eyes. It was Xiao Sheng.    

    

"Long time no see, Miss Xiao!" Chen Yu said with a smile.    

    

"Not much time, just less than a year!" Xiao Sheng said: "Young Master Chen, the first time I saw you, you were only at the first level of Heavenly Astral Stage, so you still had to be careful when facing Xie Yun inside the Evil Dragon Cave. Now, you have the strength to climb this Heaven Stairway, and I can only look up to you from here!"    

    

"Miss Xiao, you're being too serious!" Chen Yu said.    

    

"I don't dare to delay you. Go up. However, I won't look up to you for too long. After a year, I will definitely enter the inner sect. I hope you won't be easily overtaken by me! " Xiao Sheng said.    

    

"I will try my best not to let you catch me!" Chen Yu smiled and walked past Xiao Sheng.    

    

Xiao Sheng should currently have the strength of Eighth Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage. To be able to get into this position, it showed that her talent was much better than Ye Qing and Gongsun Hao.    

    

PENG    

    

Behind Xiao Sheng, a warrior once again moved to stop Chen Yu. However, Chen Yu only sent him flying with a punch.    

    

The sun was setting in the west. Half of the sun was already hidden behind the mountains.    

    

Chen Yu looked up and knew that he did not have much time left, so he did not hold back anymore. The one hundred and three blood flames spread to every corner of his body, and his Qi and blood surged.    

    

Following Chen Yu's explosion of aura, the faces of all the Outer Sect disciples on the last part of the Sky Stairway changed.
