Lin Huang had passed checkpoint 63 on the Stairway Tree since he had killed the last Bug Tribe Queen Mother a couple of months ago.
The monsters that had passed the checkpoint would no longer attack Lin Huang while Lin Huang could no longer obtain points from killing them.
Without the Bug Tribe attacking him, Lin Huang spent less than a minute to pass through checkpoint 63 of the Stairway Tree and arrived at checkpoint 64.
The 64th checkpoint of the Stairway Tree was known as the Forbidden Waterfall.
According to the records left behind by the seniors in the Heaven Alliance, more than half of the powerhouses who had passed checkpoint 63 could not get to checkpoint 72 because they were stopped at this checkpoint.
The reason why it was difficult to pass the Forbidden Waterfall was that the impact of the waterfall was extremely powerful. The speed of the water was thousands of times faster than the high-pressure water knife on Earth (the kind that could cut steel plates).
If an ordinary immortal-level rank-9 were to step into the waterfall without any protective equipment, their bones would be broken instantly. Even if they were to wear an ancient defensive relic, it would drain their Life Power severely.
Such a checkpoint was purely a test of the strength of the person's body and the density of Life Power. Moreover, the rules had completely restricted the absorption of Life Power, so none of the people who were going through the checkpoint could replenish their Life Power. There was no shortcut at all.
However, such a checkpoint was a free pass for Lin Huang.
Lin Huang smirked as he looked at the white waterfall that was covered in mist.
He did not even summon any imperial monsters or God Figurine's Combat Souls. All he did was put on his black battle armor and walk into the waterfall.
The terrifying waterfall could not penetrate the defensive layer of the demigod armor relic at all.
Lin Huang walked towards the source of the waterfall as if he was taking a stroll after a meal.
After integrating the Origin God's Heart, the Life Power in Lin Huang's body had been completely converted into Divine Power. There were also ten Divine Fires in his body that provided Divine Power continuously. It was a piece of cake for the demigod armor relic to function normally.
However, although the defensive armor had absorbed most of the impact, the remaining force was still quite a bit of resistance for Lin Huang. He could not move quickly as if he was walking against a strong wind. He seemed to be walking normally at the moment, but in reality, it was the fastest speed he could achieve after overcoming the resistance.
It took him approximately half an hour to get through the 64th checkpoint. The remaining checkpoints were getting easier.
When he arrived at the 67th checkpoint, Lin Huang stopped for a while.
He summoned the Destructive Divine Mammoth and obtained a total of ten billion points. He then killed the BOSS of this checkpoint and passed the checkpoint.
He then climbed all the way to the 71st checkpoint. Considering that he had reached his maximum points for the day, passing the 71st checkpoint would mean giving up 10 billion points, he decided to stop and quit the Genius Union.
However, he had no idea that almost all of the Genius Union members who were online had their eyes on him ever since he entered the 64th checkpoint. Looking at the leaderboard, the number of Lin Xie's followers kept increasing. Many of those who had not logged in were asked by their friends to log in to witness the miracle.
Many people thought that Lin Xie might break the record this time, but at the top of the leaderboard, his checkpoint level stopped at the number "71" and then dimmed.
Seeing Lin Huang log out, many people felt that it was a pity.
"Just one more step and I'll be able to reach the 72nd level!"
"It seems like the difficulty of the 71st floor's monster checkpoint is much higher than we thought."
"It's a pity that he failed this time. I wonder when will Lin Xie challenge the next time."
Most of them thought that Lin Huang had failed the challenge.
This was because, according to the few records, the 71st stage's monster stage was extremely difficult. The monsters on this checkpoint were ants. Although their abilities were only on immortal-level rank-9, their numbers were terrifying. They were more than ten times more than the Bug Tribe on checkpoint 63.
If the Forbidden Waterfall in the 64th test had stopped half of the powerhouses who had passed the 63rd test, then it could be said that the Ant Colony in the 71st test had successfully stopped the other half. In the entire history of the Stairway Tree, there were only a handful of people who had passed the 71st checkpoint and arrived at the 72nd checkpoint.
Only Lin Huang knew that the 71st checkpoint posed no threat to him at all. He could pass it anytime he wanted. He logged out because he did not want to give up the ten billion points that were within his reach.
Just when Lin Huang gave up and logged out, he received messages from Yi Yeyu and Yi Zheng almost at the same time.
Both of them sent simple messages.
Yi Yeyu said, "Awesome! (Broken voice)!"
Yi Zheng said, "That's amazing. You're indeed the Emperor of Dynasty!"
Clearly, both of them had been following Lin Huang's process of passing the checkpoints online.
Lin Huang shook his head and smiled when he saw that. He did not reply because to him, there was no need for him to reply to them.
However, two to three minutes later, his Emperor's Heart Ring vibrated all of a sudden. The caller was Yi Yeyu.
Lin Huang raised his brow and picked up the video call.
As soon as the video was projected, Lin Huang saw a pair of long legs that looked like white radishes.
He only saw Yi Yeyu's face after she retreated some distance away.
"Half of autumn has passed. Aren't you cold?" Lin Huang could not help but ask.
"It's none of your business!" Yi Yeyu said angrily.
"Didn't I send you a message just now? Why are you calling me again? "
"You didn't reply to my message. Can't I just say hello?"
"There's nothing important in the message you sent. I don't think I need to reply," Lin Huang mumbled softly.
"What did you say?!"
"Nothing." Lin Huang changed the topic immediately when he noticed that Yi Yeyu was going to lose her temper. "Are you with your brother?"
"No." Yi Yeyu pouted and said, "We logged into the Evil Alliance at the same time because of you passing the checkpoints."
"Oh, I saw that both of your messages were sent at the same time, so I thought you guys were together."
"I bet you didn't know that the Evil Alliance is bustling today because of your consecutive passes. You've broken the century-old record on the Stairway Tree when you got to the 71st checkpoint. I heard from my brother that the highest record in the past 100 years is the 64th checkpoint. "
Lin Huang nodded while smiling. "The 64th checkpoint is quite difficult."
"Is the 71st checkpoint difficult too?" Yi Yeyu asked.
"You can say that there's a certain level of difficulty." Lin Huang thought about it and nodded.
"Don't be discouraged even if you didn't pass it. You might pass it next time." Yi Yeyu comforted him. She thought that Lin Huang had failed.
Lin Huang nodded while smiling. He did not bother to explain anything. "Yes, I think I'll pass it next time."
"That's what you should do! Even if you fail next time, there's always a next time. A man must be able to take setbacks! "
After hanging up the phone, Lin Huang did not know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that Yi Yeyu was worried that he had failed so she called him to comfort him.
