Sacred Martial Divine Sovereign

Ao Lingchen strode forward, and the people who followed him stopped in their tracks and made way for him. Even the martial masters chose to retreat and let him go first.    

Seeing the fearful expressions of the people around him, Ao Lingchen felt that it was very funny. Could it be that he was a ferocious beast? How could these people be afraid of him?    

However, he didn't know that his image was even more terrifying than a ferocious beast in the hearts of the people. In their hearts, he was the most terrifying god of slaughter in the Tianwu Academy.    

Especially those who witnessed the devastating battle in front of the stone door. Not only were they afraid of Ao Lingchen, they were also afraid of him. That degree of fear had reached a point where his image of a god of slaughter had deeply engraved itself in their hearts. It couldn't be erased.    

No matter what the thoughts of the people around him were, whether they were afraid or afraid, Ao Lingchen couldn't care less. Since everyone had made way for him, he wouldn't be polite to them.    

Taking the lead, Ao Lingchen stepped onto the Heavenly Martial Ladder.    

Stepping onto the scaling ladder once again, Ao Lingchen felt a rush of relief in his heart. The image of him being targeted by Ximen Guang's lackey, Chen Yifann, appeared in his mind. At that time, he was truly an existence that could be bullied and bullied by anyone. How could he be as mighty as he was today? When he was about to climb the Heavenly Martial Ladder... Everyone made way for him.    

After the incident, his position in the Tianwu Academy had changed. Unknowingly, his position in the Tianwu Academy had changed dramatically.    

Not only did Ao Lingchen have a feeling, even those who made way for him felt the same way. The image of Ao Lingchen being chased away from the first floor was still vivid in his mind. Now, he had come out with the power and influence of killing. He had made everyone give way for him, and he had become one of the most terrifying existences in the Tianwu Academy. He was the person everyone feared the most!    

"This pressure seems to be a little less."    

Ao Lingchen's eyes flashed with a bright light as he frowned slightly. He had been standing on the first floor for some time. Although the spiritual qi on the first floor was a little bit weaker compared to other places, the pressure on his body... The refinement of his Yuan Qi was negligible. It could even be said that it had no effect on him.    

This effect made Ao Lingchen, who was full of expectations for the scaling ladder, a little disappointed. However, he quickly understood the key.    

The Heavenly Martial Ladder had nine levels. The pressure on each level was different. The lower levels were for martial artists to explore. If the pressure was too great, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to climb up the scaling ladder.    

After understanding all of this, Ao Lingchen also walked up step by step. He stopped at each level for a moment to feel the difference between each level.    

As Ao Lingchen walked up, the surrounding students who were waiting to explore the Heavenly Martial Ladder to temper their Yuan Qi also stepped onto it.    

Of course, those powerful martial masters did not move. They were waiting for Ao Lingchen to continue walking up and then step in. They did not want to get too close to him, so they still felt some fear in their hearts.    

Step by step, he walked up. As he felt the golden light flowing by his body, Ao Lingchen had a great understanding of the surrounding pressure and the degree of Yuan Qi refinement.    

He knew very well that the fifth level and below had little effect on him. He had never experienced this before, so he wanted to feel them one by one.    

The moment he stepped onto the fifth level, the pressure from above increased exponentially. The golden light and spirit energy surrounding him were also several times richer. He could already clearly feel the baptism of this mysterious power on his body and the Yuan Qi in his dantian. This... This kind of change made Ao Lingchen extremely happy in his heart.    

One should know that the strength of one's physique and the tempering of one's Yuan Qi was much harder than one could imagine. Yet, this mysterious power was able to do such an incredible thing.    

Ao Lingchen felt the changes in his body and looked up. Now, he was even more curious about the source of all this.    

"Is Big Brother Suen preparing to break through to the last level?"    

When he looked at the end of the staircase, he saw Suen Zhiming sitting cross-legged on the eighth level with his eyes closed.    

Ao Lingchen knew very well that Suen Zhiming's goal this time was the ninth level. With his cultivation base breaking through to the Martial Spirit, it was impossible for him to stay on the eighth floor any longer. He would definitely be involved in the final level, the source of the problem. Now that he was sitting cross-legged, there was only one possibility, and that was to ensure that he was at his peak condition. Breaking through in one go!    

"The source, what exactly do you have?"    

Ao Lingchen's eyes narrowed. This was also his goal. Naturally, his heart was filled with anticipation.    

Once Suen Zhiming started to break through to the last level, he would definitely be the center of attention. At that time, everyone's attention would be focused on the top. Now, he didn't need to worry about missing out on that scene. He could totally feel the golden light pressure around him and temper himself.    

"It's about time!"    

Ao Lingchen felt the changes in his body. He took a step forward and reached the sixth floor.    

"Hmm?"    

Stepping onto the sixth floor, Ao Lingchen immediately felt a huge change in the pressure. That kind of pressure seemed to be even stronger. Although it didn't pose much of a hindrance to him, it was at least twice as strong as the fifth floor.    

"Could it be that with every step up, the pressure will be twice as strong?"    

Ao Lingchen had a guess in his heart. He could feel that if he wanted to stand firm here and use the strength here to temper himself, he would need to at least have the strength of a middle-stage Martial Master.    

According to Ao Lingchen's estimation, the seventh level required a Martial Master Late Period, and the eighth level required a Peak of Martial Master. In this sense, the seniors of the Tianwu Academy had calculated this accurately.    

These thoughts appeared in his mind for a moment, and Ao Lingchen threw them to the back of his mind. He focused all of his attention on using the golden light to temper his body and Yuan Qi.    

The pressure and baptism ability of the sixth floor was slightly weaker compared to Ao Lingchen's current strength. He only stayed there for a moment, but he felt that it was impossible for him to improve. After that, he directly stepped into the seventh floor.    

The moment Ao Lingchen stepped onto the seventh level, a group of Martial Masters below the Heavenly Martial Ladder let out a long sigh of relief and rushed towards the stairway.    

Just now, Ao Lingchen, the God of Slaughter, had stayed on the sixth level. They did not have the courage to step into the sixth level. Now that they saw that he had already reached the seventh level, they also made the best use of their time to step onto the scaling ladder to cultivate.    

Glancing at the situation on the fifth and sixth floor, Ao Lingchen smiled helplessly. However, he didn't take these matters to heart. The gazes of the people weren't that important to him. Since he could not convince people with virtue, it was not bad to have a fierce reputation outside to intimidate everyone. At least there were a lot of things that could be convenient for him.    

After putting all his heart into tempering his body, Ao Lingchen suddenly had a premonition. He raised his head and looked up.    

What entered his eyes was Suen Zhiming, who had stood up. At this moment, his entire body was emitting a thick and vigorous Yuan Qi. His expression was solemn, and it seemed like only the stairs above him were left in his eyes.    

"Is it about to begin?"    

Ao Lingchen's eyes were solemn. He stopped attacking as well, and his expression was solemn. Breaking through to the ninth floor was a magnificent feat. It just so happened that he could gain some experience by observing Suen Zhiming's attack.
