Chapter 1183 – Scarlet Blood Ningpo Figwort (4)
However, the first step was not bad, far from being able to reach his tolerance.
The second step, went up.
The third step, went up.
……
All the way to the eighth step, Nangong Liuyun’s footsteps finally slowed.
This place’s repelling force came with earth-shattering strength, like a violent huge wave surging up endlessly, nearly drowning him.
A fine layer of sweat appeared on Nangong Liuyun’s bright as jade forehead.
He paused a bit, his foot slowly extended, then steadily stepped onto the ninth step.
Standing on the ninth step, Nangong Liuyun could clearly feel, the repulsive force here was a fold greater than on the eighth step.
Having stood there for only a breath’s time, the fine beads of sweat on Nangong Liuyun’s head became large beads, dropping and tumbling down his chest and back. Very quickly, he was drenched in sweat.
Nangong Liuyun took a breather, then took a deep breath and condensed all of his spirit force into his foot.
However, he discovered that the strong repulsive force, was heavy as a mountain range, nearly pressing down his entire person. That foot seemed to be glued to the ground, he used all the strength from the heart and was only able to lift it a thumb length high.
Seeing Nangong Liuyun lift up his foot to put it down again, under the fighting stage, everyone’s eyes suddenly became more concentrated.
Su Luo’s fist was clenched tightly, murmuring in a low voice: “These difficulties, with regards to you, are merely paper tigers, Nangong Liuyun, you can do it.”
Zi Yan’s heart became more nervous, she didn’t dare to increase the pressure on Su Luo. So, she pulled at Beichen Ying and anxiously said: “Third Senior Brother seems….under a lot of strain.”
Beichen Ying’s pair of eyes stared fixedly at Nangong Liuyun. So nervous that fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He was nodding with emphasis: “It’s nothing. Definitely, it’s nothing. From childhood to now, have you ever seen Nangong Liuyun be stumped by a problem?”
“But…” Before Zi Yan could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Su Luo.
“There is no but, he absolutely can do it!” Su Luo’s words were resolute and decisive, not allowing other opinions.
Zi Yan nodded her head, expressing her endorsement of Su Luo’s words.
On the flight of steps.
Only the last step remained.
Nangong Liuyun lifted up his foot, then withdrew, like this, he repeated three times without achieving success. On the contrary, the sweat on his forehead tumbled down like rain.
His gaze turned slightly, and saw the long stick of incense that had burned down by half. His expression turned cold like solidified frost.
Nangong Liuyun took a deep breath, completely emptying his mind. His entire body was as lithe as a feather, with all of his spirit force condensed under his foot!
His body lost the spirit force to defend, immediately, the formidable repulsive force was like a huge violent wave that seemed to pulverize him. But Nangong Liuyun clenched his teeth, used strength under his foot and firmly stepped on it.
“Bang!” Even though Nangong Liuyun’s sweat rushed forth like a river, his body tired to the extreme, however, he finally stepped on the fighting stage.
“Wow! Third Senior Brother was successful. He successfully stepped up on it!” Zi Yan excitedly waved her fist while screaming loudly.
Beichen Ying heavily nodded: “That’s right! He succeeded! Really great ah!”
Su Luo’s face finally showed a smile of relief from a heavy burden. Her smile was as splendid as a summer flower, more beautiful than could be imagined.
However, very quickly, her smile stiffened at the corner of her mouth.
“This, this, what is going on?” Su Luo’s entire body stiffened like an ice cube. Even her words weren’t nimble anymore.
Just a moment ago, Biechen Ying and Zi Yan, who were still in an intensely excited state, exchanged a glance. They hastily looked towards Nangong Liuyun.
Right now, Nangong Liuyun’s condition was not good.
No, it was very terrible.
Originally, they thought stepping onto the fighting stage would imply victory. But. no one had expected that this merely signified the beginning.
“Oh heavens!! In the end, what is going on? How could Third Senior Brother, how could….” Zi Yan’s eyes were opened wide.
