A commotion broke out when Feng Qi Qi reached the 3,400th step, claiming the top spot of the Peak of Gravity Ranking. Even those who were still climbing the Peak of Gravity stopped to look at her rise through the ranking.

Feng Qi Qi 3,432nd step.

Feng Qi Qi 3,433rd step.

Feng Qi Qi continued to climb higher and higher. As time passed, her speed decreased significantly to the point where it took her a dozen breaths just to advance to the next step. In the end, she came to a stop at the 3,462nd step. Nevertheless, the gap between her and Huan’er, who was in second place after stopping at the 3,000th step, was very wide.

“Amazing! She definitely lives up to her reputation as the top prodigy below the age of 1,000 in the Ancient Phoenix Clan. The height she climbed to is almost comparable to the height that Sect Leader Yu Jian Cheng from the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect scaled in the past.”

“That’s right! Yu Jian Cheng managed to climb up 37,870 meters high, which means he stopped at the 3,787th step… Feng Qi Qi who stopped at the 3,462nd step only needs to climb roughly 300 steps to break his record!”

“Us grassroots prodigies are still no match for a prodigy from a grade-one force.”

“How incredible!”

“Hey, did you notice the first and second place are occupied by women? Are men not as good as the two women now?”

An uproar erupted in the Genius Secret Realm and the 99 Peaks of Gravity when Feng Qi Qi claimed the top spot after climbing to the 3,462nd step.

Feng Qi Qi was famous throughout the Nan Dou Territory as the top prodigy among the younger generation in the Ancient Phoenix Clan. Although everyone knew she was strong, they did not know the extent of her strength. This was because she had never openly engaged in a battle or demonstrated her strength publicly. Her performance at the Peak of Gravity provided people with a slight insight into her strength.

The grassroots prodigies who were initially proud of Huan’er for her achievement at the Peak of Gravity could not help but feel disappointed when they saw Feng Qi Qi had claimed the top spot by such a wide margin. Nevertheless, most of them still thought Huan’er had done really well.

At this moment, something caught everyone’s attention.

“Look! Someone’s rapidly rising after passing the 2,000th step!”

“It’s Baili Hong Fei!”

“Baili Hong Fei is the top prodigy below the age of 1,000 from the Baili Clan! It’s said that his strength is comparable to Feng Qi Qi.”

“Let’s see how high he can go!”

The name that was rising rapidly in the Peak of Gravity Ranking belonged to the top young prodigy from the Baili Clan.

Baili Hong Fei climbed up to the 3,000th step and showed no sign of stopping. As time passed, his speed gradually decreased as well. In the end, he stopped at the 3,466th step; he was four steps ahead of Feng Qi Qi.

“He’s ahead of Feng Qi Qi by four steps! Does this mean he’s stronger than Feng Qi Qi?” someone speculated out loud.

Someone was quick to disagree. “That might not be the case. Since Feng Qi Qi climbed up to the 3,462nd step first, Baili Hong Fei might have just pushed himself to climb to the 3,466th step just to break her record.”

“I agree. If Baili Hong Fei climbed up first, perhaps, Feng Qi Qi might surpass him.”

Duan Ling Tian agreed that Baili Hong Fei might not necessarily be stronger than Feng Qi Qi. After all, people tended to produce better results when there was competition. It was not surprising if Feng Qi Qi became complacent after passing the 3,000th step since she was far ahead of everyone at that time. On the other hand, Baili Hong Fei must have been determined from the very beginning to overtake her.

Duan Ling Tian continued speculating inwardly, ‘He only managed to surpass her by four steps despite his determination. It seems like he might not be a match for her…’

Following that, there was no shocking change in the Peak of Gravity Ranking. Even after half an hour had passed, Huan’er still stayed in third place.

Now that the excitement had died down, Duan Ling Tian called out, “Huan’er, let’s go.”

It was time to explore the Genius Secret Realm. The Peaks of Gravity were not the only places in the secret realm, after all.

Duan Ling Tian asked, “Brother Ling Tian, did you notice that our Celestial Origin Energies seem to have improved after we climbed the Peak of Gravity?”

Upon hearing Huan’er’s words, Duan Ling Tian quickly sensed his Celestial Origin Energy. Just as Huan’er had said, his Celestial Origin Energy seemed to have improved.

Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his eyes lit up, ‘It seems like the pressure at the Peak of Gravity is beneficial to our cultivation!’

“I remember hearing that there’s a place called the World of Laws in the Genius Secret Realm. One can comprehend the laws by battling Formation spirits there.” Duan Ling Tian had learned about this matter before he entered the Genius Secret Realm and was highly interested in the World of Laws.

After asking for directions, Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er finally arrived at the World of Laws half a day later.

In comparison to the 99 Peaks of Gravity, there were only nine Worlds of Laws. Therefore, Duan Ling Tian did not find it surprising to see a few hundred people had already gathered at the World of Law.

This World of Law was located in a vast plain. On the plain, there were many independent spaces on the plain that contained laws. These spaces were collectively known as the World of Laws.

Once one entered one of the spaces, a Formation spirit would appear. The strength of the Formation spirit depended on one’s cultivation base, and it would use the same law one had comprehended. Apart from that, the Formation spirit’s combat experience was comparable to a Celestial Emperor. For all these reasons, there were not many people capable of defeating the Formation spirits. Those who fought to draw with these Formation spirits were regarded as outstanding. As for those who managed to defeat the Formation spirits, they would be rewarded by the World of Laws. Additionally, their names would be announced once they had defeated the Formation spirits. With this, they would be able to attract the attention of grade-one forces. For example, in the past, two grassroots prodigies were invited to join the Ancient Phoenix Clan and the Baili Clan respectively after they defeated the Formation spirits.

“What a beauty!” At this moment, a young man dressed in an embroidered robe with a sinister expression on his face approached Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er. He fanned himself with a fan weaved out of feathers as he blocked the duo’s path.

The sinister-looking young man ignored Duan Ling Tian and looked at Huan’er as he said with a smile, “My name is Yun Xiao. I’m from the Thousand Hands Devil Sect. May I know your name?”

Huan’er ignored Yun Xiao; she did not even bother to look at him.

“Scram!” Duan Ling Tian said with a frosty expression on his face.

“Boy, do you know who I am? My father’s the Sect Leader of the Thousand Hands Devil Sect. How dare you speak to me so rudely?” Yun Xiao finally shifted his attention from Huan’er to Duan Ling Tian. “I’ll give you a chance to preserve your life. Kneel before me and kowtow three times. After that, stay away from this woman. Otherwise, you’ll die here!”

As soon as Yun Xiao finished speaking, a dark aura surged out of his body like dark clouds and covered the sun.

Such a huge commotion, naturally, drew everyone’s attention.

“Did that purple-clad young man provoke Yun Xiao?”

“Yun Xiao isn’t just one of the young prodigies in the Thousand Hands Devil Sect, but he’s also the sect leader’s only son! Who’s that purple-clad young man? To think he dares to provoke Yun Xiao.”

Soon after, someone who had witnessed what happened earlier said, “It’s not like that. The purple-clad young man didn’t provoke Yun Xiao. It was Yun Xiao who looked for trouble with him…”

“Among the young prodigies from the grade-one forces, Yun Xiao’s rank is somewhere in the upper-middle tier. This purple-clad young man seems like a grassroots prodigy. He’s really unlucky!”

Many people looked at Duan Ling Tian sympathetically as they discussed among themselves.

At this moment, while Duan Ling Tian and Yun Xiao stood across from each other, stuck in a confrontation, Huan’er suddenly made a move. She raised her hand, and a grey sword ray appeared out of thin air before shooting toward Yun Xiao.

Before Yun Xiao could even react, he was cleaved into two by the grey sword ray. At the moment before his death, he wore a dumbfounded expression on his face and was frozen still.

Following that, Huan’er glanced at Yun Xiao’s corpse briefly as she said in an icy tone, “Whoever wants to kill Brother Ling Tian must die!”

The onlooker inhaled sharply. When they finally regained their senses, they looked at Huan’er as though she was a ghost.

“This woman is really formidable! Although Yun Xiao was not the most outstanding among the young prodigies in the Thousand Hands Devil Sect, he was still rather strong. He even managed to climb past the 2,300th step at the Peak of Gravity.”

“She killed him in just a blink of an eye. Since she dared to kill Yun Xiao, she must have an extraordinary background. Is she from a grade-one force?”

“I have no idea.”

“Hey, did you hear her address the purple-clad young man as Brother Ling Tian?”

“Brother Ling Tian? Is he Duan Ling Tian, the grassroots prodigy who almost climbed up to the 3,000th step at the Peak of Gravity?”

“I heard his companion was Huan’er who climbed to the 3,000th step. So, if he’s Duan Ling Tian, this woman should be Huan’er, right?”

“These two must be Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er! My friend sent me a message and told me Huan’er is a peerless beauty. Look at her! Have you seen anyone more beautiful than her?”

It did not take long for the onlookers to guess Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er’s identities.

“This means they’re grassroots prodigies, right? Where did they find the courage to kill Yun Xiao?”

“Killing Yun Xiao is no different from provoking the Sect Leader of the Thousand Hands Devil Sect! Unless they manage to join one of the three most powerful grade-one forces in the Nan Dou Territory, they would be in big trouble!”

“Although they’ve performed very well so far, their strength isn’t sufficient to attract the attention of those grade-one forces.”
