Chapter 464: The Name That Surfaced in the Broken Memory (2)

Upon hearing Tai Ri’s words, Li Yu became more interested in the altar. It did seem extraordinary.

Tai Ri continued, “However, when you reach the last 50 steps, you will see a mysterious woman.”

“She sits cross-legged on the seventh step and silently plays the zither. The sound seems to contain endless longing and sorrow, moving people. If you are immersed in it, you will not be able to help but cry.”

“If you’re moved by her music, you might have a chance to attract her attention. I easily reached the 20th step with her help the first time!”

“Is that woman a guardian heroic spirit too?” Long Chuan asked curiously.

He had also tried to break through this altar, but unfortunately, he had only reached the halfway point, so he did not know if there was any other woman playing the zither above.

“No, she should be someone like us who ascended the altar. At first, I thought she was a heroic spirit.”

“Later on, when I reached the seventh step on the altar for the last time, I was fortunate enough to speak to her.”

“I found out that she was waiting for someone there, someone she loved deeply. They agreed to walk up the Heroic Spirit Altar together,” Tai Ri replied.

“Then why did she insist on ascending to his lover on the seventh level of the altar? It’s not good to stay up there!” Long Chuan asked in confusion. He understood that not staying on the altar for a second longer was torture.

“I don’t know either. I asked, but she didn’t answer. Furthermore, she should have been waiting there for a long time. However, I feel that she’s far stronger than me.

She should have the ability to reach the top of the altar, but it was also possible that she had stopped there because she had to wait for her lover to appear!

“If so many years had passed, I wonder if she had waited for her lover. Would she still be there?” Tai Ri looked above the altar and sighed.

“The Grand Star Lord is about to ascend the altar again!” As soon as Tai Ri finished his sentence, there was a sudden commotion on Heroic Spirit Peak.

Someone tried to step onto the altar on Heroic Spirit Peak again.

Furthermore, from the expressions and reactions of those people, it was clear that this person called Grand Star Lord was quite famous. His every move was the center of attention, and it was even apparent from their expressions and reactions.

Li Yu, Tai Ri, and the others approached and saw a middle-aged man walking towards the Heroic Spirit Altar.

From this person’s aura, he was at least in the Heavenly Venerable realm, and he was the strongest among them.

“The Grand Star Lord reached the 20th level last time. He’s only short of the last 20 levels!”

“This time, he can probably go up a few more levels!”

“Yeah, he might even reach the altar this time!” A few cultivators discussed.

Someone at the side sneered and said, “If you could ascend the altar with just your mouth, even a wild dog by the side of the road could do it!”

“That’s right, there are always people who like to flatter others!” Someone echoed, his face filled with disdain.

“What’s there to flatter about reaching the 20th level at most? My master reached the 10th level back then. The difficulty of the last 10 levels is doubled per level. Over the years, there were plenty of people who stopped at a certain level for hundreds of thousands of years!”

“That’s right. In the past hundred years, this Grand Star Lord has only walked two more levels. He hasn’t even touched the last ten levels, and he wants to ascend this altar in one go? Dream on!”

“If you have the ability, try it yourselves. Although Grand Star Lord only reached the last 20 levels, he can definitely reach the top of the altar with his strength and cultivation. It’s just that he was unlucky not to obtain the help of that zither girl. Otherwise, he would have reached the top of the altar long ago!”

“That’s right. If not for that woman’s help back then, your master would never have reached the tenth level. Dream on!” The two groups of people argued non-stop.

“Shut up, all of you!” An old man with long purple hair sitting cross-legged on a stone block nearby shouted coldly.

His words immediately silenced everyone, and they did not dare to say anything else.

The old man slowly stood up and looked at the man called Grand Star Lord as he walked up the first step.

Blast!

Space seemed to tremble as the power of heaven and earth fluctuated violently.

The Grand Star Lord’s figure disappeared from the altar as if he had entered another space.

At the same time, the first step of the altar emitted a faint light.

Soon, a dim light appeared on the second step, followed by the third.

Li Yu understood. Although the surrounding crowd could not see the figure of the person ascending the altar, they could see the dim light on the stairs.

From this, he could roughly deduce where he had reached.

However, he did not know how to tell who had reached which step if more people ascended the altar at the same time.

Or could only one person be allowed to go up at a time?

“Tai Ri, can two or more people ascend this altar at the same time?” Li Yu asked the question in his heart.

“Yes, but if you ascend the altar at the same time, the pressure on the person walking behind will be much stronger than when he’s alone. He might even be disturbed by the person in front of him during the battle.

“In short, it’s more difficult to ascend the altar with others at the same time. This is also the experience summarized by predecessors, so many people would not choose to ascend the altar at the same time as others!” Tai Ri explained.
