He made a breakthrough!

Given the golden cicada youth’s sharp eyesight, he could tell right away that Lin Xun’s physical cultivation had advanced from the levels of the eighth longevity tribulation stage to the ninth longevity tribulation stage.

That one step propelled him to a breakthrough!

The Nine Pure Dao Light circulated Lin Xun, sweeping away the discomfort and fatigue all over his body. He felt energized, refreshed, and stronger than ever.

The golden cicada youth exhaled with a smile, turned around, and continued forward.

Lin Xun also smiled and followed closely.

……

Five thousandth step…

Six thousandth step…

Seven thousandth step…

As Lin Xun progressed, his mental state had also completely changed. His physical cultivation that had broken through to the ninth longevity tribulation stage continued to be tempered and refined.

This was actually a great reward.

When one had just advanced to a new cultivation level, the worst fear was the unstable foundation being shaken. Fortunately, the arduous climb up the steps was like a sharpening stone. The repeated process not only stabilized his foundation but also allowed him to grasp his newly transformed physical cultivation power in the shortest tpossible.

“For those powerful figures, the great opportunity in the palace is a must-win opportunity to becan Emperor, but for me, this training is already an opportunity...”

Lin Xun had a clear understanding in his heart.

Admittedly, the great opportunity was out of his reach.

But in front of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Palace, he found his own suitable opportunity!

But very quickly, he had no tto think too much. When he reached the seven thousand six hundredth step, he felt strained again.

Moreover, his physical power had almost been exhausted.

This time, he did not forcibly persevere and instead quietly started to activate his qi cultivation. Immediately, he steadied his footsteps once again.

Along the way, the golden cicada youth never said a word.

Lin Xun also did not say anything and just fully concentrated on overcoming the increasingly terrifying oscillatory power.

The higher he went, the more terrifying the oscillatory power. Even if he had activated his qi refinement cultivation to withstand it, he still found it very strenuous.

It was as though at the beginning, his opponents were just ordinary characters, but the higher he went, the stronger the opponents he encountered.

And now, he felt like he was fighting against a group of False Saints!

The pressure he felt compared to the beginning had doubled!

Without any hesitation, when he reached the eight thousand two hundredth stone step, he activated his spirit cultivation to its full power.

However, after just several minutes, he felt strained once again.

There were nine thousand nine hundred and ninety steps in total. The higher he was, the greater the oscillatory power became. In particular, when he stepped onto the nine thousandth step, his body swayed, and he was almost blasted off!

He gritted his teeth, ready to withstand with all his strength.

In the following time, his expression becmore serious and solemn than ever as he plodded the last several hundred steps. His entire body was blazing like a raging furnace.

Nine thousand one hundredth step.

Nine thousand two hundredth step.

Nine thousand three hundredth step.

...By the end, his muscles were twitching, his bones were crackling like they could not bear the force anymore, and his face was contorted with veins popping out.

Too difficult!

It was more strenuous than any battle Lin Xun had ever experienced in his life. His entire body and will were put under unprecedented pressure.

In truth, the moment that Lin Xun passed the nine thousandth step, the golden cicada youth was ready to give a helping hand to Lin Xun whenever he could not carry on.

But Lin Xun was still holding on after stepping on the nine thousand seven hundredth step!

Every step he took saw his body swaying violently like a flickering candle in the wind. He looked like he would collapse at any moment.

But still, he miraculously survived every single time.

His rapid breathing sounded like a pair of wind bellows drawing in air. Sweat was pouring out from all over him, and his face was worryingly pale.

Many times, the golden cicada youth tried to say something but hesitated, and several times, he almost intervened and helped out, but in the end, he did not do so.

Lin Xun was still doing his best to persevere, so why should he make him give up at this time?

The golden cicada youth suddenly thought of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor, who went against the will of heaven and overcten thousand tribulations to becan Emperor.

Would that have been possible without great perseverance and willpower?

Lin Xun, at least in terms of perseverance and willpower, was not inferior to the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor back then. In fact, perhaps he might even be better!

“Those who achieved great things in ancient times not only had extraordinary talents, but also displayed perseverance and tenacity. Fangcun Mountain...gained an incredible successor...” the golden cicada youth marveled.

……

For the first tsince returning to the lower world, Lin Xun felt an almost unbearable feeling.

It was not a battle.

But it was more torturous and strenuous than a battle!

Soon, Lin Xun’s body felt numb, and his mind went blank. He relied solely on a stream of qi and an unyielding will to support him.

He no longer had any thoughts.

The sky, the earth, the people...everything was empty and blank.

Moving forward had becan eternal instinct.

In the center of his chest, the Origin Aeth Artery had becburning hot, like a scorching sun blazing inside of him, releasing waves of bright and strange energy.

The Origin Aeth Artery buzzed and vibrated like seeds about to break through the soil surface.

Lin Xun was completely unaware of all this.

Nine thousand nine hundredth step.

Nine thousand nine hundredth and ninety step.

As the golden cicada youth arrived at this step, his heart beat faster and faster. He had never felt such emotions in a long, long time.

But this time, he was touched by Lin Xun!

With his knowledge, intelligence, and wisdom, he was able to predict and deduce the majority of things in the world, but he never expected Lin Xun to hold on this far.

What a surprise!

Surprises often shocked people. The golden cicada youth could not remember when was the last tor what it was that had made him feel surprised and shocked in the past.

Therefore, his emotions were a little unstable at that moment.

“I have been dormant and meditating for endless years, and now that I am about to leave, I was given such a surprise… This kid is indeed an uncertainty.”

A strange look crossed his face.

The golden cicada youth suddenly felt the urge to stay and see what Lin Xun’s future path would be.

But in the end, he fought it.

If he did not leave this time, he would not have another chance in the future...

A thud snapped him out of his deep thoughts.

He turned around and saw Lin Xun stepping forward and falling on his buttocks on the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth step!

He had reached the Ten Thousand Tribulation Palace.

Nine divided by nine was one. No matter how many nines there were, it becomes one in the end.

As for the fifty great daos, when subtracted by the number that could be derived in the world, the remaining was also one.

At that moment, Lin Xun had collapsed on his buttocks and was hunched miserably, but the golden cicada youth’s eyes were filled with unconcealable shock and surprise as he stared at him.

Shock as in disbelief.

Surprise as in amazement.

The golden cicada youth looked like he had watched a miracle unfold; it was puzzling but also filled him with an indescribable feeling of delight.

He gradually calmed down after a long while and mumbled to himself, “Interesting, it turns out that I never actually saw through him. This is rare...too rare...”

Meanwhile, Lin Xun, who was sitting on the ground, had not completely relaxed himself yet, nor had he drifted into sleep due to over exhaustion and fatigue.

It was unknown where he got the strength from, but he gritted his teeth and little by little dragged his numb and unresponsive body up to a cross-legged position on the ground.

Then, he slowly closed his eyes.

There were visible signs of fatigue on his pale face, but he looked majestic and dignified.
