Avenue Stowaway

Sun Shuiping stared at Kong Fang on the first stone step in amazement, and he even doubted whether he had seen it wrong. Kong Fang was stronger than him at this age, so his talent and understanding were naturally not bad. If Kong Fang ran directly to the third floor, Sun Shuiping would believe it, but Kong Fang was still on the first floor, and Sun Shuiping could not believe it or accept it.

Sun Shuiping even forgot to go to the next stone step. He stood there in a daze, looking at Kong Fang in surprise.

Kong Fang was seen shaking his body from time to time, and trying to move forward a step with difficulty from time to time, but as soon as he lifted his foot, before it fell, he would be pushed back by the strange force that filled the stone steps.

"Junior Brother Kong, he..." Sun Shuiping stared at him for a long time, with a trace of regret in his eyes. "The strange power on the first stone steps is not strong, and it is easy to comprehend. Others can reach the second stone steps from the first stone steps, so why is Junior Brother Kong trapped on the first stone steps?" Sun Shuiping shook his head helplessly. Although he was reluctant to believe this result, the facts were before him and he could not help but believe it.

Sighing secretly, Sun Shuiping walked to the third stone steps, turned back to look at Kong Fang again, and the regret in Sun Shuiping's eyes became even stronger.

Afterwards, Sun Shuiping closed his eyes and began to comprehend the strange power on the third level of stone steps.

The strange power on these stone steps can only be understood by oneself, and then use magic power to remove the momentum, so that one can walk down the stone steps one by one. Others can't help. Although Sun Shuiping felt sorry for Kong Fang, he couldn't help him either.

Soon after Sun Shuiping reached the third stone step, Fu Hong also opened his eyes. Sun Shuiping and Fu Hong from the Weapon Demon were the two strongest people among the eleven people except Kong Fang. The stone steps ahead tested the control of mana. As long as the mana could be adjusted and changed with the strange power on the stone steps, the impact of the strange power could be removed, and then the next stone step could be reached.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Fu Hong saw Sun Shuiping standing on the third stone steps below.

"As expected of you, Senior Brother Sun. You have reached the third step before me." Fu Hong smiled calmly and walked towards the third step.

After taking two steps, Fu Hong suddenly stopped and looked back in surprise.

"Uh. This, this..." Fu Hong's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Kong Fang, who was still standing on the first stone steps, in extreme shock.

"Everyone else has reached the second stone step, but Junior Brother Kong Fang is still on the first stone step. How is this possible?"

At this moment, Fu Hong was just like Sun Shuiping before, he was shocked beyond belief, and at the same time he felt regretful and sorry for Kong Fang.

"I originally thought that Junior Brother Kong Fang would be the one who comprehended that strange power the fastest, and would eventually compete with Bai Yan from Huayu Sect, but Junior Brother Kong Fang..." Fu Hong sighed helplessly in his heart.

At this time, Sun Ce also opened his eyes. He could finally remove the strange power on the second stone step. This made Sun Ce very happy. However, as soon as he opened his eyes, Sun Ce found Sun Shuiping standing on the third stone step in front of him. This made Sun Ce frown and the smile on his face faded a lot.

"Hmph, you run pretty fast." Sun Ce, who had always been the number one disciple in the inner hall, felt unhappy when he saw that Sun Shuiping was faster than him.

Just as Sun Ce was about to go up to the third stone steps, he suddenly found a person standing about ten feet to his right.

"It's Fu Hong. His speed is even faster than mine." Sun Ce felt even more unhappy. "Hey, what is he looking at?" Sun Ce followed Fu Hong's gaze, and when he saw Kong Fang standing alone on the first floor, Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, and then a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but the smile quickly disappeared.

"He is still standing on the first floor. Humph, he is just so-so." Sun Ce sneered in his heart. "I thought he was so powerful, but it turns out he is all show and no substance. Humph, so what if he is stronger than me? What is tested in Zhongzhutian is one's comprehension and control over magic power. The title of the number one inner hall disciple still belongs to me, Sun Ce." Sun Ce glanced indifferently at Kong Fang who was still "struggling" on the first stone steps, then turned around and walked towards the third stone steps.

Sun Ce would not waste his time on someone who was far superior to him.

Seeing that Sun Ce had already reached the third stone steps, Fu Hong could only shake his head helplessly, sighed, and walked towards the third stone steps.

Fu Hong and Sun Shuiping were the same. They both wanted to help Kong Fang. After all, they were both from the Weapon Demon. Under the influence of the Lord, everyone in the Weapon Demon was like a brother. Even if they were two strangers, as long as they knew that the other person was also from the Weapon Demon, they would try their best to help each other, not to mention that they were both very familiar with Kong Fang.

But unfortunately, this is Zhongzhutian, and we have to rely on ourselves for everything.

The people on the second stone steps walked to the third stone steps one after another, but Kong Fang still stood on the first stone steps.

Kong Fang's body swayed from time to time, and sometimes he would lift his foot to take a step forward, but then he would be pushed back by the strange power on the stone steps. Kong Fang repeated the same action over and over again. To others, Kong Fang was struggling hard, but no one knew that each repetition was the best time for Kong Fang to comprehend the strange power on the stone steps. Because only at this time, the strange power on the stone steps would suddenly increase and prevent Kong Fang from moving forward.

"This power is very strange. It is impossible for me to fully comprehend and master it. It's like I have the talent of earth, but I am asked to control the power of water. However, since this strange power is relatively close to the power of earth, I can comprehend the real secret hidden in this strange power and understand how this power suddenly becomes stronger. If I can understand this, it will be much easier for me to practice the Nine-evolution Nine-fold Art, and I won't encounter the same situation as before. It is clear that I have reached the third gravity, but the third gravity that erupts is weaker than the second gravity. I must practice for a while before the third gravity can erupt with full power."

Kong Fang's body continued to sway, and from time to time he would raise his foot as if to take a step forward.

More than half an hour later, Sun Shuiping, Fu Hong, and Sun Ce were already standing on the fourth stone step. Suddenly, a gleam of light shot out from Kong Fang's tightly closed eyes.

"So that's how it is. Power can actually be used in this way, it's really magical." Kong Fang suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were shining, and his face was full of joyful smiles.

"I finally understood how this strange power suddenly erupted." Kong Fang suddenly punched forward, but Kong Fang only used double the force.

'Bang', 'Bang',

Kong Fang punched out, and the air actually made two muffled sounds. The power was extremely great. Kong Fang could never do this before.

"The power of the Nine-Evolution Nine-Layer Technique has indeed increased a lot." Kong Fang retracted his fist, feeling very happy.

The power of the Nine-Yan Nine-Layer Art was already terrifying, but after Kong Fang realized the way this strange power on the stone steps became stronger, the power of the Nine-Yan Nine-Layer Art suddenly became even more terrifying.

Hearing the sound of the air vibrating, Shen Hongtao and his seven companions on the third stone steps and Sun Shuiping, Fu Hong and Sun Ce on the fourth stone steps all opened their eyes and turned to look towards the place where the sound came from.

When they saw that Kong Fang had opened his eyes, Sun Shuiping and others were stunned.

"Junior brother, what were you doing just now?" Sun Shuiping asked in surprise.

"I was itching to try out some Taoist magic, but I didn't expect to disturb you all. Please continue to meditate." Kong Fang said with a smile.

"Still on the first floor. I can actually laugh." Sun Ce snorted in his heart, "It seems that I can't comprehend the strange power on the stone steps for a long time and can't reach the second stone steps. I feel too uncomfortable, so I use Taoism to vent my frustration."

Sun Ce glanced at Kong Fang indifferently, turned around without saying anything, closed his eyes and continued to comprehend the strange power on the stone steps.

Although Kong Fang was still on the first stone step, Sun Ce did not dare to mock Kong Fang openly. Kong Fang could not do anything to him in Zhongzhutian, but once he left Zhongzhutian, it would be his doom. Even if Kong Fang beat him to a pulp, the master would not do anything to Kong Fang because of his great contribution to the sect, even though Sun Ce was now the master's personal disciple.

Nowadays, Kong Fang's status is the most special among all the disciples in Qi Sect. Although Kong Fang is not the sect master's direct disciple, his status is higher than that of the sect master's direct disciple.

"Junior brother, are you okay?" Sun Shuiping naturally thought of what Sun Ce could think of, and asked immediately. However, Sun Shuiping did not dare to mention the fact that he had comprehended the strange power on the stone steps, for fear that Kong Fang would be embarrassed and shocked.

Kong Fang is the strongest among them, but now he is still on the first floor. He must feel very uncomfortable. How can Sun Shuiping mention Kong Fang's sad story again?

Kong Fang was very happy at this moment, so he didn't carefully observe the expressions of others, otherwise he would be amused to find that these people looked at him with eyes full of pity and regret.

"Everyone, please continue to comprehend." Kong Fang waved his hand and said.

Since Kong Fang said so, Sun Shuiping and the others could only turn around and continue to comprehend the strange power on the stone steps, which would also make Kong Fang less embarrassed. Of course, this was just what Sun Shuiping and the others thought.

Seeing that everyone else closed their eyes and continued to meditate, Kong Fang smiled slightly.

This time, Kong Fang did not use the magic power in his body, but directly raised his foot and walked forward. Kong Fang took a step forward easily, and the strange power did not stop Kong Fang anymore.

"This is the biggest benefit." Kong Fang took a step easily and soon reached the second stone step. After carefully sensing the strange power on the second stone step, he found that it was only slightly stronger than the power on the first stone step, and there was no essential change. Kong Fang did not stop and walked to the third stone step.

Kong Fang walked easily past the people who were meditating and reached the fourth stone step.

"The strange power has become much stronger again, but it has no meaning to me." Although the strange power will become stronger with each step, its essence has not changed. Kong Fang has fully understood the true mystery of the strange power and naturally does not want to waste time. Kong Fang walked down one step at a time, and soon he disappeared from everyone's sight.

Kong Fang walked along the stone steps and came to a platform below.

He turned around and looked upwards, "It turns out that there are ten stone steps on the first floor, but the power on these ten stone steps is the same, it's just that it's gradually getting stronger. For me, there is no essential difference. I wonder what will be on the stone steps below?" A light flashed in Kong Fang's eyes, and he stepped directly onto the first stone step of the second floor.

More than half an hour later, Sun Shuiping was the first to open his eyes.

"I can finally reach the fifth level of stone steps." As Sun Shuiping felt the strange power on the stone steps, his control over magic power became smoother and stronger, which made Sun Shuiping very happy, and naturally he yearned for the stone steps below.

However, before going to the fifth stone steps, Sun Shuiping looked back out of habit.

"Junior Brother Kong Fang is no longer on the first floor." Sun Shuiping was delighted, but then he was shocked, "There is no trace of Junior Brother Kong on the second or third floors." Sun Shuiping immediately turned around and looked at the stone steps below. Standing on the fourth step, Sun Shuiping could only see the fifth, sixth, and seventh steps below.

Not seeing Kong Fang, Sun Shuiping sighed heavily, "Junior Brother Kong Fang may have given up. I'd better go up and take a look and comfort him. I hope Junior Brother Kong can withstand this blow."

After just walking around the platform above, Sun Shuiping did not see Kong Fang.

"This..." Sun Shuiping, who was standing on the top platform, was shocked. "Junior Brother Kong wouldn't jump down from here, would he?" Sun Shuiping quickly shook his head. "Impossible, how could Junior Brother Kong not be able to withstand such a small blow? But, where did he go?"
