Chapter 108: Golden Stairway



“Heh, you don’t have to be so surprised about it, Yang Wei,” Elder Jing smirked as she continued, “After all, many great techniques are usually ranked low compared to others.”

Yang Wei raised his eyebrow slightly, seemingly in confusion about her point.

The movement technique he grabbed in the Sect’s Martial Hall was considered trash when even the elder in charge of registering the technique warned him about it.

If Elder Jing’s word was to be true then why didn’t anyone fight over the movement technique from him.

Elder Jing seemed to have noticed Yang Wei’s doubt as she shook her head slightly.

“Don’t you understand the saying: pearls are always hiding, away from the naked eyes of ordinary people.” Elder Jing turned into a philosopher as she tried to explain things in a roundabout way to Yang Wei.

“Pearl is always hiding…” Yang Wei mumbled softly before realizing Elder Jing’s meaning.

True values are often hidden away from ordinary people and only those who are willing to put in an effort would be able to comprehend and utilize their true values.

In this scenario, Elder Jing’s meaning is that the Octane Punch is a powerful technique but because the technique is too difficult for others to learn and that they don’t understand its true potential, hence, they have given it the lowest ranking.

“Shouldn’t there be other cultivators that have tried to learn the Octane Punch technique previously?” Yang Wei asked.

He believed there should at least be some cultivators willing to test their luck in studying the Octane Punch, with some even being able to comprehend the Octane Punch fully.

Alas, Elder Jing chuckled softly at his question. “Ai, Yang Wei, I don’t even know where to begin with you.”

And she continued, “The Octane Punch requirement to learn it is extremely gruesome and takes a long time to learn when compared to other techniques. Thus, even though there are some cultivators willing to pick the technique up to study it, they still gave up in the end during the process.”

Yang Wei was dumbfounded and wondered if the Octane Punch is really a difficult technique to study.

However, he didn’t get a chance to enquire further when Elder Jing returned her focus to the collapsed wall.

“Let’s go now. I doubt we can do much staying here any further.” Elder Jing said as she walked inside.

Yang Wei quickly followed behind Elder Jing, leaving the room empty except for a certain transparent figure.

The transparent figure was none other than Senior Zhong Guowei who was spying on them secretly.

“This little lass really needs to work on her behavior. I felt like my soul tremble every time she cursed at me indirectly or directly.” Senior Zhong Guowei mumbled softly as he glanced in a certain direction.

Afterward, he shouted, “I have done what you asked for so shouldn’t you do your part now?”

The room was silent for a few minutes until a deep voice echoed back to Senior Zhong Guowei.

“You have done well so your soul shall be released from the stone tablet. However, don’t expect that I will be lenient to you if you attempt that farce again.”

Senior Zhong Guowei shuddered slightly when he was reminded of the previous incident again.

“Y-You can rest assured that I wouldn’t be ignorant like my past self to do something like that again.” Senior Zhong Guowei cupped his fist and said solemnly.

“Hmm, I hope that’s the case since you won’t be given another golden opportunity like this to become free after doing some menial task.”

Afterward, the voice faded away and Senior Zhong Guowei felt a chill in his back despite being a mere transparent soul.

‘Damn it, if I wasn’t careless and got caught by you in the past then I wouldn’t have to become a mere puppet and have to act like some grand senior to those two youths.’

Senior Zhong Guowei cursed inwardly as he didn’t understand the person’s reason to make him reveal himself to Elder Jing and Yang Wei.

Clenching his fist tightly, Senior Zhong Guowei decided to return to the stone tablet to destroy it now that he was given permission.

Meanwhile, inside the area behind the collapsed wall, Elder Jing and Yang Wei were in disbelief when they saw a massive stairway in front of them.

The stairway was crafted in some golden color and had a straight path going toward darkness.

From afar, they couldn’t even tell what the stairway leads to or even tell if the stairway has some other area after ascending.

“I-Is that another trial, Elder Jing?” Yang Wei asked as he pointed at the stairway that seemed to have no ends at all.

There were multiple steps to take in the stairway and Yang Wei had no doubt that it could number hundred-thousands or even millions.

“I-I don’t know… there was never a golden stairway when I last completed the trial.” Elder Jing shook her head and was in confusion as well.

The trial was always different from the previous but Elder Jing had information that the trials should be similar.

This was the case for the Hellflame Tiger’s trial where she knew exactly what to do but this time, the golden stairway was a new trial that she had never seen before or got information about.

“Our only option now is to try and ascend upward.” Elder Jing said after a minute of pondering.

She has tried to fly above the stairway but as one would expect when encountering a stairway, flying is restricted and there was no point in wasting their breath in trying.

After all, even if flying is possible, Elder Jing feared that it would only become harder such as a gravity pressure appearing at them, forcing them to expend more true qi to remain in the air.

Yang Wei nodded his head at Elder Jing’s words and started to walk forward on taking the first steps.
