The Infinite Mystery

Hundred Fruits Wine was powerful and its effects were very strong. Ordinary people simply could not drink even a single drop of this wine and even a cultivator at the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment realm like Qin Feng and Mao Tingxia could only drink one mouthful of the Hundred Fruits Wine at a time.

Its effect was so strong that if any Late Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator were to drink more than a mouthful of this wine, there was a possibility that their body would explode.

Although Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le were from a small city called the Cloud City, they were not ignorant people. They were very knowledgeable. They did not dare to drink the Hundred Fruits Wine instead they stored the wine inside their spatial ring.

Spatial rings were rare even in the Cultivation World. Qin Feng got to know about the spatial rings when he came in contact with Mao Tingxia. Only because of this he dared to take out the Hundred Fruits Wine from the Mysterious Space in front of Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le.

Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le also misunderstood that Qin Feng has a spatial ring.

Well, Qin Feng filled the six pots with the Hundred Fruits Wine, and Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le stored two pots each after sealing the mouth of the pot, leaving behind two pots for Qin Feng.

Qin Feng said, "Miss Mao, Brother Ding, take these two pots of wine also. Don't worry, I have left Hundred Fruits Wine for myself."

Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le nodded their heads and again stored another pot filled with Hundred Fruits Wine in their corresponding spatial ring.

_The Next Day_

When the sun rose from the east and sprinkled its warmth onto the earth, everyone had already gathered at the gate of the Heavenly Star Sect.

The main examiner had already appeared there with a solemn expression on his face. His deep voice could be heard by every person present there: "Today is the last exam of the Heavenly Star Sect. As long as you can pass this exam, you will truly become a disciple of the Heavenly Star Sect."

"This examiner is different from the last and there are not any dangers at all. It is mainly a test to check one's potential. Remember that during the last test, you must go all out because your result will affect your future treatment in the academy. This is of vital importance."

As soon as he finished speaking, the main examiner waved his hand. The door of the Heavenly Star Sect that was thirty meters in height slowly opened and the first thing they saw was a long flight of stairs that was built of giant stones.

The width of each step of the stair was about fifteen meters, allowing many people to climb at the same time without seeming crowded. The height of each step was exactly two meters. It felt the disciples present as if it was very easy to step onto them.

"The final test is right in front of you all, the Nine Sky Stairway. Now listen up, this time the exam is not to see who can climb stairs the fastest but to see who can climb the furthest. The Nine Sky Stairway has a total of 99 steps. Those who can climb less than 30 steps in two days will be eliminated."

"Now I announce, the exam begins!" The main examiner shouted coldly at everyone.

The moment he shouted, all the youths rushed towards the Nine Sky Stairway. The last examination of the Heavenly Star Sect had finally begun.

.....

Qin Feng was not eager to start. He just kept looking at the group of people rushing to the Nine Sky Stairway like a swarm of bees. It was not only Qin Feng who did not move, there were also some other youths who did not make their moves.

These youths' were Mu Bai, Yu Han, Yan Xue, and others. Mu Bai, Yu Han, and Yan Xue were the only three people with the cultivation base at the Middle Stage of the Innate Realm. They were not much older. They were only twenty.

If Qin Feng were to see them on earth, he would have been very shocked because of their cultivation bases at such a young age but after arriving at the Cultivation World, his horizon broadened. He knew there were many such experts in the cultivation world.

The Blue Star Country was only a small country. There are many other countries and empires much bigger and vaster than the Blue Star Country. At those places, experts like Mu Bai, Yu Han, and Yan Xue could be found as many as one wants.

Well, since these youths did not make their moves, it was obvious that they were all very confident. The result of the exam depended on one's abilities. The one who started first was not bound to be the one who had the last laugh.

The disciples who had just ascended to the Nine Sky Stairway suddenly halted.

"Why is it so heavy?"

"It is like I am in the water. It is so hard to move!"

"It seems that the weight will increase with every step I take!"

The disciples on the Nine Sky Stairway immediately began to discuss amongst each other. The main examiner angrily shouted, "Shut up, you idiots. You'd better save your strength to climb the stairway. Do not waste your stamina in talking with each other like this!"

After being scolded by the main examiner, everyone immediately came to their senses. This was a competition of endurance. Every ounce of their strength was precious as long as they were at the Nine Sky Stairway.

Only they also understood why there were two days of time limit before someone will fail the examination. They shut up their mouths and started to climb up slowly.

After three hours, someone finally reached the 10th step. It was a boy and he was the fastest one to reach the 10th step. Seeing this, Mao Tingxia and Ding Jia Le could not sit still. Although they wanted to climb the stairway with Qin Feng but right now, Qin Feng did not even move from his spot. They knew Qin Feng has amazing strength and there is nothing for them to doubt about his stamina.

But they were not Qin Feng. They needed to climb the stairway from the start only then could they have the chance to climb to the 30th step in two days. So they asked Qin Feng about this.

Qin Feng told them that there is no need for them to wait for him. They should start climbing the stairway. After getting Qin Feng's answer, both of them went climbing the Nine Sky Stairway.

After one and half hours later, all the disciples had basically started climbing. Yu Han also stood up at this moment and walked towards the Nine Sky Stairway. Seeing him, Yan Xue who was wearing a long white robe also went to the stairway and started to climb. Although Yan Xue was beautiful, her manner was very cold and gave people a feeling that they could not get close to her.

Now, only Qin Feng and Mu Bai were left. Mu Bai turned to look at Qin Feng before he went to climb the stairs. Qin Feng also went to climb the stairs at this moment.

When Qin Feng took the first step on the Nine Sky Stairway, he immediately felt a wave of pressure came pressing down from all directions, making his body heavy.

After sensing it carefully, Qin Feng doesn't know how but he suddenly understood that this should be a type of array. If he could cultivate inside this array, his body's strength would increase rapidly.

Qin Feng kept going upwards. The pressure on the starting steps was not enough to stop him from climbing the stairs. In less than half an hour, he had reached the 10th step. After reaching the 10th step, the pressure on him had suddenly increased by several times, making it difficult for him to climb further for a few moments.

After stabilizing himself on the 10th step, Qin Feng took a long breath and once again started to climb upwards at his previous speed.

Two hours later, he climbed to the 20th steps of the Nine Sky Stairway, and on the twentieth step, the pressure on him once again increased twofold, making it difficult for him to climb further.

Another two hours later, he reached the 26th step. Here, Qin Feng met Mao Tingxia. Her breathing was already slightly hurried, showing that she was under a lot of pressure.

Seeing that Qin Feng had come to her, Mao Tingxia smiled and indicated that he could try his best to continue climbing the Nine Sky Stairway and she was ok.

Qin Feng nodded his head when he saw that only her breathing was slightly rugged. She could still climb further.
