Chapter 79: Su Nan: Is This My Son?
Chapter 79: Su Nan: Is This My Son?
"Who is that?"
Fang Yi was momentarily dazed as he watched the figure walk away.
He already had an answer in his mind, but it was hard to believe.
"It's him."
Zhou Yu's calm demeanor was gone, and he stared blankly in the direction where the figure had disappeared.
Among the top prodigies, only one wore rough hemp clothes, making it impossible to mistake.
But...
"Why is he so fast?"
Zhou Yu and Fang Yi fell silent.
On the Celestial Jade Stairway, the use of cultivation was forbidden. The initial test was to see how well each contestant could control their techniques.
On their staircase, almost no one practiced secret arts below the Celestial Rank.
Thus, unless someone hadn't learned any stepping techniques, the speed difference wouldn't be significant.
But what about Su Changqing?
He had started at the back and suddenly surged to the front, leaving them unable to even see his shadow!
How astonishing must the secret technique he practiced be?
Zhou Yu looked at the footprints Su Changqing had left behind and examined them closely.
The footprints emitted a faint glow, with Dao patterns constantly forming, and intricate lines combining in a peculiar way.
Zhou Yu's eyes lit up as he studied them more carefully.
But after a moment, his vision blurred, and his mind became muddled.
"This..." Zhou Yu was alarmed.
There was only one explanation for this: the Dao patterns condensed in the footprints were far beyond his level.
He couldn't even grasp them.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"
As Zhou Yu and Fang Yi were still in a daze, another figure raced toward them from behind.
He wore a Daoist robe, panting heavily, with a look of lingering surprise in his eyes.
"I don't believe I can't catch up to you!"
Xuan Qingzi shouted, his fingertips glowing as he swiftly traced symbols in the air.
"By the power of the command, appear!"
Swoosh!
In an instant, dozens of ethereal talismans appeared in his hand.
These talismans quickly merged and overlapped, instantly imprinting on Xuan Qingzi's body.
"Go!"
Xuan Qingzi formed a hand seal, and his body shot forward like a gale.
His speed was almost as fast as Su Changqing's.
He had no choice; Su Changqing was his benefactor, and he needed to achieve a similar score.
To catch up to Su Changqing, Xuan Qingzi was giving it his all.
"Creating dozens of talismans in the air in an instant."
"Is this the scatter cultivator you mentioned?"
Fang Yi's lips twitched as he glanced at Zhou Yu.
"He..."
Zhou Yu hesitated. He remembered Xuan Qingzi mentioning that his sect had fallen, leaving him as the only survivor, both the sect leader and the disciple.
But he never expected that a fallen sect could still produce such a powerful prodigy?
...
Su Changqing, at the front, had no idea what was happening behind him.
At this moment, he was completely immersed in the profound Buddhist scriptures.
Countless Dao patterns appeared in his mind, and a flood of insights surged within him.
Though his eyes were tightly closed, the world around him seemed to be filled with countless light points.
These light points were arranged in a specific pattern, and every time he stepped on one, he would instantly reappear at another light point ahead.
Each time this happened, from the outside, it looked as if he was taking a single step, but everything in front of him would rapidly recede.
It was as if the world had suddenly shrunk to allow him to cross it in a single step.
This terrifying speed allowed him to surpass one person after another.
Every prodigy he overtook was left in shock, watching as his figure quickly disappeared, their minds boggled.
"Who is that? How can he be so fast!"
"No way, my Mid-Celestial Rank Divine Step technique can't even catch a glimpse of his back?"
"This... Is this some kind of cultivation cheat?"
"Just a technique can achieve such speed?"
These top prodigies on the Path to Heaven were utterly devastated.
They were the most elite geniuses selected from the Southern Domain, yet they couldn't even see the back of the person they were chasing?
This massive gap made them almost believe they had somehow intruded into the ranks of the top prodigies.
"Damn it! I don't believe I can't catch up to you!"
Who among the top prodigies would willingly fall behind?
They were confident that their achievements would secure them a top rank, but now it wasn't about their achievements anymore.
It was about surpassing Su Changqing, who was leading the way.
However, even when they pushed their speed to the limit, the figure in front of them only grew farther away.
...
Below.
As Su Changqing suddenly accelerated, the other prodigies attempting the challenge were stunned.
In their line of sight, Su Changqing, who had been at the back, suddenly burst forward, surpassing group after group of prodigies with each step.
In the end, he surged to the front at an incredible speed.
At this point, they were already far behind the top prodigies, but compared to Su Changqing, they were on a completely different level.
This massive gap made these self-proclaimed prodigies cry out in despair.
"Is this real? We're all prodigies, so how can he be so fast?"
"Is the Heaven-Grade step technique I practice a fake? Why is there such a huge difference?"
"Can't even see the back of a top prodigy? What's the point of competing then?"
Tens of thousands of prodigies looked up at the sky, where a young man in rough linen clothing was ascending the Path to Heaven at an incredible pace.
That terrifying speed almost made these ordinary prodigies want to give up.
If they could use their cultivation, such speed wouldn't be surprising.
But the problem was, their cultivation was suppressed, leaving them with only their mortal bodies!
To burst forth with such incredible speed using just their mortal bodies, what level of understanding of techniques must this person have?
This was only the first challenge, but everyone remembered the simply dressed young man.
Meanwhile.
On the platform at the peak, Uncle Fu was also stunned.
According to Su Nan, Su Changqing had never learned any cultivation techniques or secret arts.
But what was this?
Crushing the top prodigies and becoming the first to reach the top of the Path to Heaven?
This was called not having learned any secret techniques?
"Lord Su is indeed low-key."
Thinking back to when Su Changqing had used his innate secret technique in the ruins, Uncle Fu couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing the protectors of Zhou Yu and Fang Yi standing there in a daze, he said calmly:
"Indeed, the gap is quite large, and they can't even see the back of the person they're chasing."
"You have a good understanding of your own masters."
Uncle Fu didn't say much more.
But even so, the faces of the two protectors turned red.
Feeling the gazes of the people around them, they were embarrassed and wished they could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
At this moment, even if they wanted to argue, they couldn't.
Because the gap was indeed too great.
...
While the people on the ground were discussing, Su Nan and Wu Jiuling, who were chatting in the sky, hadn't noticed the commotion below.
They were still discussing how to comfort Su Changqing later.
"I've never comforted anyone before. What should I say?"
Wu Jiuling was still troubled, but when Su Nan heard the commotion below, he glanced down.
But when he saw that familiar figure at the front of the Path to Heaven, he froze.
"That... That's Changqing?"
Su Nan had always believed that Su Changqing had never practiced any techniques.
But now, watching his son, who left a trail of imprints with each step, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning!
His heart was tossed into a tumultuous storm!
