Chapter 255 The First Person to Reach the Summit

Qingque walked forward step by step as if he was returning home. At first, Qingque and the people around him could not be said to be making progress at the same pace, but they could be said to be on par with each other.

Qingque looked up at the crowd climbing up. The stairs were very spacious and the distance between each person was very wide.

However, Qingque noticed that most of them disappeared when they reached two-thirds of the total length of the stairs, and only a very few climbed up at an extremely slow speed.

Qingque looked back and realized that he had climbed more than 700 steps.

Qingque thought to himself, "It's okay, it's okay. There are so many people up there! As long as I keep climbing at this pace, it will be easy to get over 7000 meters."

So Qingque continued to climb leisurely as if he was just strolling around.

If other people knew that Qingque was so relaxed, their faith would be shattered. He ran fast and slow, fearing that he would lose his reputation, but Tongtian came instead.

You should know that the stairs become harder to climb as you go up. Anyone can climb the first 500 steps, and the real watershed is the 1800~2400 steps.

There were only a little over 9000 people who could go up there, and the crowd that came to listen to the sermon was endless. Not to mention a few hundred people, there must have been at least 80 people.

Standing before the magnificent and imposing Daoxuan Palace, Bai Ling, dressed in a white robe as white as snow, stood gracefully. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she gazed with a half-smile at the people below who were struggling to climb the Three Thousand Heart-Searching Ladders. The long staircase twisted and turned, seemingly endless, while the climbers were sweating and panting, but they still gritted their teeth and persisted in their climb.

Bai Ling's lips curled up slightly as he thought to himself, "Even after Ah Ha diverted about three-quarters of the people, there are still so many people gathered here."

Bai Ling estimated that there were about a million people. The two-month journey across the entire Milky Way delayed one group of people, diverted one group to Ah Ha's fake Daoxuan Palace, and sent one group back to his own Yizhihai.

Bai Ling couldn't help but sigh, "Heroes are as numerous as the fish in the river. However, the truth should not be spread lightly, and the law should not be passed on to others."

As he thought about it, Bai Ling's gaze slowly shifted from the people struggling to climb the stairs to the vast, deep, starry sky. Deep in the distant sky, tiny stars twinkled with faint light, like dazzling gems inlaid in the black sky.

Meanwhile, after overcoming numerous obstacles and untold hardships, Potio and Luanpo finally reached the true Daoxuan Palace. Recalling this arduous journey, Potio couldn't help but feel a wave of irritation. When he had first sighted the fake Daoxuan Palace fabricated by Aha from afar, due north of the Milky Way, he had been filled with joy, believing he had found the legendary holy land. But as they approached, they discovered it was nothing more than a hoax.

The fake Daoxuan Palace was bustling with activity, its grandeur beyond imagination. In contrast, the real Daoxuan Palace before him seemed rather deserted and desolate. Poteo couldn't help but wonder if everyone in the galaxy had fled to that place. Because their starship was occupied and unusable, they had to rely on Luanpo's powerful Commander to forcibly carry them across the vast starry sea. The difficulties and dangers they encountered along the way were truly beyond words.

Even then, he was accused of not cutting in line. Potio couldn't help himself and almost pulled out his gun, but was stopped by Luanpo.

After a lot of persuasion, Luanpo finally pulled Potio away.

After countless hardships, Potio finally arrived at the legendary Daoxuan Palace. However, as soon as he found his footing, his uncontrollable emotions erupted like a volcano.

"Damn it!! So damn cunning! So damn sinister! He actually built four Daoxuan Palaces and placed them in the four directions of the Milky Way! But this one that looks the most inconspicuous and the least eye-catching is the real one!" Potio shouted angrily at the Daoxuan Palace in front of him, as if he wanted to vent all the dissatisfaction in his heart at once.

Fortunately, sound cannot be transmitted in space, and the synesthesia beacon that Botio carried only established a connection with Luanpo. So, although he was furious at the moment, no one besides Luanpo could hear his fierce words.

Poteo and Luanpo stood silently in the vast expanse of space, their gaze fixed on the Daoxuan Palace, radiating a mysterious light. They saw groups of figures climbing the palace's stairs, jostling for position, each one fearing even a tiny step behind the others. Seeing this scene, Poteo couldn't help but shake his head, muttering:

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a treasure! Look at these people, they're all like crazy, climbing up like crazy! They created three more fake ones! They moved the memories of Liuguang Yiting here to use as a moat, and this guy still keeps saying that he's paving the way for the people. Bah! Hypocrisy!"

Ranpo commented, "Silver Spear, Shura Ninja Hero. The way of ninja should not be taught lightly. The Galaxy Ninja Scroll states: The way of ninja cannot be practiced without great perseverance, great opportunity, and great virtue. Because those who master ninjutsu greatly increase their strength. If it is learned by evil people, evil ninjas and rebellious ninjas will spread throughout the galaxy. Then, those of us who follow the righteous path will fall into an irretrievable doom!"

Poteo added, "Lanpo! Look at us, my dear! We watched those so-called destined ones vanish into a stream of light. Now we're like omnics with their brains blown out! We can only stand here like idiots."

Luanpo consoled him, "Learning skills and becoming a disciple is a matter of fate. Since you and I have both become ninja heroes, there's no need to compete with ordinary people. Furthermore, the Ninja Master Bai Ling said that this lecture is to teach those who have never embarked on the Ninja Way the profound principles of Ninja, hoping that all people in the world will follow the righteous path and restore order."

Poteo snorted coldly and shut up.

This trip, I've been working in vain. I should check if there are any corporate thieves nearby! I can kill a few of them for fun.

At this point, Qingque had already reached the 2300th step. She couldn't help but feel suspicious, thinking to herself, "This is truly bizarre! I did feel a little tired on that first short walk, but after just a few more steps, the fatigue completely vanished. Even more bizarre, my body seemed to be moving automatically, as if without any control."

As if suddenly realizing something, Qingque turned her head. Looking back, she was shocked to find that she had unknowingly walked such a long distance. The once bustling and dense crowd behind her had now become sparse. Looking around, most of those who had started with her were now far behind.

Qingque cast his gaze to the side, only to see a few thousand people still struggling to climb the stairs. Each one of them was drenched in sweat, their faces contorted, their teeth bared, and their legs trembling constantly, as if they would collapse at any moment. Their steps were unsteady, their bodies stumbling, each step proving extremely laborious, clearly on the verge of exhaustion.

Just as Qingque was stunned, Bai Ling's voice slowly came: "The first person to reach the summit has arrived. You must work harder."
