Before everyone's attentive gazes, Zhou Xian held a black scepter in his hand and walked down the flight of stairs with a smile on his face. He then saw Qin Yu and the others. With a smile on his face, he walked over.
"Brother Qin Yu, what happened to you? Before I entered the Thunder Punishment Palace, you were still fine. How did you end up injured? " Zhou Xian saw that there were bloodstains on Qin Yu's clothes and asked with a 'concerned' appearance.
It was only then that Qin Yu noticed the bloodstains on his clothes. Immediately, his black gown shook and the bloodstains disappeared.
"It's nothing," Qin Yu replied indifferently.
Qin Yu didn't answer. However, someone else spoke out and said. "Brother Zhou Xian, earlier, Qin Yu, Duanmu Yu and them, a total of four people tried to climb the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. Merely, they did not succeed and fell down the steps."
Zhou Xian uttered an 'oh.' He had an appearance of sudden realization. Then, he looked to Qin Yu, curled his lips and sighed. "Brother Qin Yu, could it be that you all do not know … that it is absolutely impossible for one to reach the top of the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps before reaching the Godking level? Never would I have expected that while I was entering the Thunder Punishment Palace, you all still managed to climb the steps. "
Qin Yu started to frown. A trace of anger appeared in his heart. "This Zhou Xian has obtained a gift bestowed by the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial. Yet, he is now making sarcastic remarks?"
Qin Yu, who was feeling angry in his heart, remained silent. He simply ignored Zhou Xian.
Kuiyin Hou was very magnanimous. He continued to smile and said. "Brother Zhou Xian, to be able to obtain a gift bestowed by the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial, there is naturally no need for you to be too distressed. As for us, there is no other way. We can only attempt to climb the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. Although we did not succeed, there is no harm in trying. "
Duanmu Yu also smiled indifferently and said no more.
The final person of the four who attempted to climb the steps, Shentu Fan, started to frown. Evidently, he felt a trace of disgust toward Zhou Xian.
"Brother Zhou Xian, congratulations on obtaining a gift bestowed by the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial. What did the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial bestow upon you? Might we be able to have a look at it? "Suddenly, someone spoke.
Immediately, everyone looked to Zhou Xian's eyes.
Qin Yu also wanted to know what item Zhou Xian had obtained. He could not help but look at Zhou Xian.
"Haha …" Zhou Xian laughed heartily and raised the black scepter in his hand.
Kuiyin Hou said in surprise, "Brother Zhou Xian, could it be that Empyrean Thunder Punishment bestowed this black scepter? At first glance, I didn't pay much attention to it. Now that I've observed it carefully, this black ruyi seems to have something special about it. "
Qin Yu also looked at the black ruyi.
The power of space spread out and carefully observed the black ruyi. With merely a glance, Qin Yu sensed an aura … the aura of a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.
"It's actually a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure." Qin Yu's eyebrows twitched. His gaze was focused on that black scepter. "Merely, I wonder what level this Grandmist Spiritual Treasure is."
It was impossible to see through this black ruyi just by relying on Divine Sense or the power of space.
Only by dripping a drop of blood on it would he be able to fully understand the details of this black ruyi.
Duanmu Yu laughed lightly and said. "How could something bestowed by an Exalted Celestial be an ordinary item? It should be a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, right? "The others immediately began to discuss among themselves.
Those people did not possess Qin Yu's' Spatial Energy. 'Furthermore, it was unsuitable for them to use their Divine Senses to observe the black ruyi. If they were to do that, they would definitely be discovered by Zhou Xian. That would make them appear reckless.
Those people all grew curious. Was it really a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure?
Zhou Xian smiled confidently. "That's right. This black ruyi bestowed by an Exalted Celestial is a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. The Exalted Celestial also knew about my participation in the groom search. Thus, this Grandmist Spiritual Treasure could be considered as a gift. "
"Sure enough, the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial thought very highly of Brother Zhou Xian. Brother Zhou Xian has only just arrived at the Levitation Island, yet you've already obtained a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure," Someone said with a smile.
Zhou Xian smiled lightly. There was a trace of complacency in his eyes.
After obtaining a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure bestowed by an Exalted Celestial, Zhou Xian felt that the first chosen candidate spot for the groom search would definitely be his. Inevitably, he revealed a complacent expression on his face.
"Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are separated into third rate, second rate and first rate. May I know what level this Grandmist Spiritual Treasure is? "Kuiyin Hou directly asked.
It was not only Kuiyin Hou who was curious. Even Qin Yu wanted to know.
Zhou Xian smiled indifferently. With a flip of his hand, he put away the black ruyi ruyi. He glanced at the crowd and then said, "Let's not talk about what level this black ruyi ruyi is. Everyone should know that the first round of the groom search is to obtain a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure bestowed by an Exalted Celestial. If none of you are able to obtain an Exalted Celestial's Spiritual Treasure, then not to mention my Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, even if this black ruyi ruyi is an ordinary item, I will still win. Thus, it is better that everyone think of a way to obtain a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure bestowed by an Exalted Celestial. "
Qin Yu, Duanmu Yu, Kuiyin Hou, Shentu Fan and the others were all stunned.
Although Zhou Xian's words were arrogant, everyone knew that what Zhou Xian said was very reasonable.
If they were unable to obtain a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure bestowed by an Exalted Celestial, then regardless of how lousy the item that Zhou Xian obtained might be, it would still be an item bestowed by an Exalted Celestial. As such, the first chosen candidate spot would belong to Zhou Xian.
Everyone dispersed. Qin Yu, Duanmu Yu, Shentu Fan and Kuiyin Hou sat together on a lawn.
After climbing the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure together, the four of them had grown closer to one another.
After taking a glance at the three people beside him, Qin Yu began to ponder on how to obtain a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure bestowed by an Exalted Celestial. "That Utmost North Sage Emperor gave me a total of ten years to prepare. My New Cosmos' time acceleration has already surpassed ten thousand times. Ten years is equivalent to a hundred thousand years. A hundred thousand years of bitter cultivation will not increase my clone's comprehension of the spatial laws by much. "
In order to ascend the Heaven Reaching Flight of Steps, there were two ways.
One was to increase one's comprehension of the spatial laws. The other was to increase one's control over the spatial energy.
"A hundred thousand years, the increase in one's comprehension of the spatial laws is too little. As for the spatial energy … the increase in spatial energy will follow the evolution of the entire cosmos. It has nothing to do with the time acceleration. In less than ten years, the amount of spatial energy that can be increased is also very little. "
Qin Yu was unable to refrain himself from frowning.
What should he do?
At this moment, Qin Yu was unable to think of anything.
Suddenly, a voice sounded beside Qin Yu. "Brother Zhou Xian has obtained a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure bestowed by an Exalted Celestial. Why are you still here and not returning?"
Qin Yu raised his head to look over.
It turned out that Zhou Xian was also sitting cross-legged beside him. The one who had asked the question was Kuiyin Hou.
Zhou Xian smiled indifferently. "Although I have obtained a gift, there are three Exalted Celestials. Perhaps I might be able to obtain a gift from Exalted Celestial Carefree or Exalted Celestial Fluttering Feathers? Why would I be in a hurry to return? "
After saying that, Zhou Xian paused for a moment. Then, he continued, "Furthermore, it's only ten years. It's not bad for me to stay here and accompany you all."
Qin Yu, Duanmu Yu, Shentu Fan, and Kuiyin Hou all smiled and did not say anything.
At this moment, Zhou Xian recalled the words that the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial had said to him. "Xian 'er, let me remind you. After you obtain this scepter, there is no need for you to be in a hurry to return. For some unknown reason, Eldest Senior Brother Fluttering Feathers, who has always been secretive, is actually paying close attention to this groom search. Not only me, Eldest Senior Brother Fluttering Feathers and Junior Brother Carefree are also on the Thousand Islands around the Mountain Sea Palace. Whether or not you'll be able to encounter them will depend on your luck. "
Zhou Xian closed his eyes. Then, he slowly exhaled. A flash of lightning flashed through his eyes.
"Exalted Celestial Fluttering Feathers?"
Of the three Exalted Celestials, the strongest, most secretive, and most mysterious Exalted Celestial Fluttering Feathers was actually on the Thousand Islands around the Mountain Sea Palace.
This news was truly too shocking.
If it was someone else who said this, Zhou Xian would think that person to be talking in his sleep. However, these words were personally said by his grandfather, the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial.
Thus, Zhou Xian was not in a hurry to return.
He planned to try his luck in these ten years. Perhaps he might really encounter the Exalted Celestial Fluttering Feathers.

"Earlier, I've already ascended to the ninety-seventh step. If I were to be more careful in controlling my spatial energy, I might be able to advance even further," Qin Yu clenched his teeth and stood up again.
No matter what, he could not give up.
"Brother Qin Yu, what are you doing?" Seeing Qin Yu stand up, Duanmu Yu, Kuiyin Hou, Shentu Fan, and Zhou Xian all looked over.
"Continue to ascend the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps," Qin Yu said directly.
As he said those words, Qin Yu began to walk toward the Mountain Sea Palace with large strides. Seeing Qin Yu's back view as he walked toward the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps, Duanmu Yu and the others were slightly shocked.
Without prior consultation, they all stood up and walked toward Qin Yu.
Right after Qin Yu began to walk, Kuiyin Hou spoke. "Qin Yu, for the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps, the difficulty will increase by a lot with each additional step … although you've ascended to the ninety-seventh step, it is simply impossible for you to ascend to the ninety-eighth step. It is simply not that easy to increase one's comprehension of spatial energy. "
Qin Yu's body stopped.
Qin Yu had a bitter smile on his face. He thought to himself. "How could I not know? However, I cannot give up." With that, Qin Yu continued to ascend the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps.
However, at this moment …
The air started to buzz. A white gowned youth was flying toward them. His target was the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. Qin Yu and the others turned around to look.
"High Level Heavenly Deity!" Qin Yu immediately determined this person's strength.
This white gowned youth was someone that Qin Yu had never seen before. He was also not one of the eighteen candidates.
This white gowned youth had a grim expression. He completely ignored Qin Yu and the others and directly landed beside the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. Then, without saying anything, he began to climb the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps.
His speed was extremely fast.
This white gowned youth seemed to be very familiar with the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. In the blink of an eye, he had climbed fifty steps in succession. After that, he continued to climb upward.
"This person has come again." The disciple of the Unfettered Exalted Celestial, Hao Jun, walked toward Qin Yu and the others with a smile on his face.
"Brother Hao Jun, what's going on? Who is that person? "Zhou Xian asked.
Hao Jun lightly smiled and said. "In the past several million years, this white gowned youth has frequently come to climb the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. Several million years ago, he was only a Low Level Heavenly Deity. Now, he is already a High Level Heavenly Deity."
"It's only been several million years. His cultivation has increased this fast?" Kuiyin Hou said in shock.
His cultivation speed was truly astonishing.
"This white gowned youth is not fond of talking. I have tried to chat with him before. However, he ignored me. Merely, he would climb the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps every several thousand years. "Hao Jun said with a smile.
Qin Yu slightly frowned. He raised his head and looked to the white gowned youth who was climbing the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps.
"If he is unable to reach the top, then why is he climbing the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps again and again?" Qin Yu was puzzled.
At the beginning, the white gowned youth's climbing speed was relatively fast. However, upon reaching the seventieth step, it began to slow down. Upon reaching the eightieth step, it became even more difficult. One step after another.
Everyone was able to see that the white gowned youth was giving his all.
When he reached the eighty-fifth step, the white gowned youth was blasted down. After falling to the ground, the white gowned youth tried his best to stand back up. He gasped for breath and then said in a low voice. "Eighty-fifth, target reached."
After that, the white gowned youth closed his eyes and began to adjust his breathing.
"Brother," Kuiyin Hou said. However, that white gowned youth was still healing his injuries with his eyes closed. He had completely ignored Kuiyin Hou.
"There's no need to say anything. He will not pay attention to you," Hao Jun said with a smile.
After a short moment, that white gowned youth opened his eyes. He swept his gaze over the crowd and then directly flew away from the Levitation Island.
"That person is truly a maverick," Zhou Xian laughed lightly. However, within his tone, there was a trace of disdain toward that white gowned youth.
Hao Jun exclaimed in admiration. "That white gowned youth's improvement is extremely great. Last time, he had only reached the eighty-third step. I had originally thought that it would be very amazing for him to be able to reach the eighty-fourth step this time. Never would I have imagined that he would actually reach the eighty-fifth step."
"Brother Qin Yu?" Kuiyin Hou spoke.
At this moment, Qin Yu had already begun to climb the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. After his first attempt, Qin Yu was already somewhat familiar with the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps. In the beginning, Qin Yu's speed of climbing the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps was relatively fast. In an instant, he had reached the seventieth step.
"Why is this Qin Yu so stubborn?" Zhou Xian shook his head and sneered.
As for Shentu Fan, Duanmu Yu, Kuiyin Hou and Hao Jun, they raised their heads and watched as Qin Yu climbed the Heaven Connecting Flight of Steps.
