With that thought in mind, Lu Yuan stood up.
With the Sacred Golden Flames, Lu Yuan's footsteps moved slightly. In a short while, he arrived at the edge of the ninth step.
With a light leap, he landed on the eighth step.
At this moment, Chihiro Snow was cultivating on the eighth step.
The pressure on the eighth step was already very great. Chihiro Snow had just come up not long ago. It could be seen that her expression was actually a little painful. However, Chihiro Snow was Chihiro Snow after all. She had a stubborn personality and could endure pain. Although the Sacred Light Body Tempering was painful and the pressure was so great that it was difficult for her to breathe, she still gritted her teeth and persevered.
Chihiro Snow was in the midst of a difficult cultivation. All her spirit and will were fighting against the immense pain. Therefore, she didn't notice that Lu Yuan had come down.
Lu Yuan didn't disturb Chihiro Snow's thoughts. He sat down cross-legged not far from Chihiro Snow with a calm expression. After experiencing the destruction of the Sacred Golden Flames Body Tempering on the ninth step, he didn't feel the pressure and temperature of the eighth step at all.
It was simply an easy batch.
Lu Yuan's double pupils flashed slightly. He was sizing up Chihiro Snow.
Although the two of them had been alone together for three months, Lu Yuan wasn't tired of Chihiro Snow at all. Instead, the more he looked, the more he was immersed in Chihiro Snow's charm.
Now, Chihiro Snow was wearing a long dress woven from the silk of the Thousand Year Ice Silkworm. The long dress was white, but an icy blue light flickered from time to time.
Perhaps it was because of her Martial Soul, Chihiro Snow's style of dressing in the past was inclined towards golden clothes. Her temperament was also inclined towards the sacred and noble type.
But now, Chihiro Snow, who was wearing this snow-white dress that flickered with an icy blue light, gave Lu Yuan a different feeling.
Cold and pure. Wearing this long dress, Chihiro Snow's purity had reached the extreme.
"My Cher is still beautiful. I can't get enough of looking at her." Lu Yuan sighed softly.
As if she had heard Lu Yuan's sigh, Chihiro Snow, who had been cultivating, suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of watery golden eyes.
His golden eyes were a little dim, revealing a sense of exhaustion. Fighting against pain and pressure for a long period of time was actually very taxing on one's mental strength. Once one's mental strength was depleted to a certain extent, they would feel very tired.
"You're done cultivating?" Seeing Chihiro Snow open her eyes, Lu Yuan couldn't help but stand up. He walked to Chihiro Snow and squatted down in front of her. A rich white light directly enveloped Chihiro Snow from Lu Yuan's hand.
Under the effect of the Clear Qi Divine Power, Chihiro Snow's condition quickly recovered. The exhaustion in her eyes also completely disappeared.
"En, you're done cultivating too?" Chihiro Snow blinked her beautiful eyes and asked softly.
"En, I'm done cultivating too. I'm already confident that I can last for 24 hours on the Ninth Celestial Stairway." Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"You're really amazing. It's all my fault for holding you back. Otherwise, you could've completed the assessment now. You shortened the one-year time limit to three months, only using a quarter of the time. If you completed the assessment now, the reward would've been exceptionally generous. But with me, the time for you to complete the assessment will be pushed back a lot."
"Obuchi, am I very useless?"
Chihiro Snow looked up at Lu Yuan with a faint guilty expression. If she hadn't held him back, Lu Yuan could've gotten a better reward.
It was all her fault for not living up to expectations. After three months, she had just climbed to the Eighth Celestial Stairway, causing Obuchi to waste a lot of time waiting for her.
"Who said you're useless? My Cher is the most amazing. She climbed to the Eighth Celestial Stairway in three months. To be honest, Cher, you should be proud. According to your current situation, you can almost complete the second assessment in half a year. It's half a year early. Sigh, can you still say that you're useless?"
"Moreover, I don't really care about the reward. It's just a little increase in the age of my Soul Rings. Look at my current Soul Ring combination, do you think I care about a mere few hundred years?"
"So, Cher, don't think too much!"
Lu Yuan said gently.
"En!" After hearing Lu Yuan's words, Chihiro Snow nodded slightly and felt much better. She pounced forward and burrowed into Lu Yuan's embrace.
He stretched out his left hand and hugged Chihiro Snow's delicate body. He raised his right hand and gently stroked Chihiro Snow's soft golden hair.
"Cher, I'm going out later. The finals of the Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament is coming soon. Zhu Qing and the rest should be on their way with their team. I have to go out and lead them to compete. This is what I promised them. As for you, do you want to stay here and continue the assessment, or do you want to go out with me?"
Lu Yuan asked softly.
"I'll stay here and continue the assessment." Chihiro Snow's golden eyes flashed, then she said with a determined expression.
"Alright then, you can stay here and take the assessment. But you have to be careful. When I'm not around, you can't go up to the Ninth Celestial Stairway."
Lu Yuan's eyes were filled with seriousness.
"En, I understand." Chihiro Snow nodded and said.
"That's good." Lu Yuan smiled slightly, then kissed Chihiro Snow's red lips gently and said, "Then I'll go out first."
"Go!" Chihiro Snow said gently.
"Then I'll go. This is for you!" With that, a light flashed between his eyebrows, and the Neptune's Heart appeared in Lu Yuan's hand. A gorgeous blue light flashed and forced the surrounding Angelic Holy Light away, forming a blue domain with a diameter of two meters. Lu Yuan and Chihiro Snow's figures were completely enveloped by this blue domain.
Seeing what Lu Yuan gave her, Chihiro Snow couldn't help but be stunned and asked with some surprise, "The Neptune's Heart?"
"Yes, the Neptune's Heart's Vast Ocean Power also has the effect of healing and mental strength. When I'm not around, you can use it to recover. You also have the Pure Qi Divine Power in your bloodline. Although it's a little difficult to use the Neptune's Heart's power, it's enough to use some of the Vast Ocean Power to recover."
With that, Lu Yuan handed the Neptune's Heart to Chihiro Snow.
Chihiro Snow subconsciously took the Neptune's Heart.
Seeing Chihiro Snow take the Neptune's Heart, Lu Yuan smiled slightly and pinched her delicate nose, then let go of her delicate body. The phantom of a golden dragon appeared under his feet, and a loud dragon roar sounded. Lu Yuan's figure turned into a golden streak of light and directly flew towards the entrance of the Angel Realm.
In the Angel Temple, a golden vortex appeared, and Lu Yuan's figure stepped out.
The Golden Dragon Battle Armour slowly faded away, and Lu Yuan changed into a new set of cloud-silk robes. In an instant, his entire person had an air of elegance and awe.
"Let's go back to the island in the middle of the lake first. I don't know if senior sister is still there. Apart from the first few days, I haven't seen her in three months. That girl must be missing me a lot, so I'll go to the island in the middle of the lake first to see her. Hopefully, she's still there."
Lu Yuan murmured, then his figure flashed and directly left the Angel Temple, flying towards the island in the middle of the lake.
