Free Web NovelChapter 775: Chapter 335: Physical Strength 2
"However, this time I relied solely on physical strength. The powers of the Innate Saint’s Sacred Body and Innate Qi were not used at all!"
This time, when Xu Ran stepped onto the 101st step, he didn’t use the power of the Great Success of the Innate Saint’s Sacred Body, relying purely on physical strength. This is why taking this step was so difficult.
The mysterious person, seeing Xu Ran finally step onto the 101st step, finally breathed a sigh of relief. The once dim eyes began to burn with endless hope again.
"This step has finally been taken. This means that Xu Ran has already adapted to the pressure beyond the hundredth step. The path ahead won’t be so difficult. At least, before the two hundredth step, there will be almost no pressure!"
The fact is indeed so.
After Xu Ran stepped on the 101st step, the steps ahead were like an ordinary person climbing a mountain. Although he was panting a bit, he managed to climb the stairs relatively easily.
"Huff!"
"Huff!"
"Huff!"
"Huff!"
...
Xu Ran climbed the stairs while panting heavily, with cold sweat continuously oozing from his forehead, and wisps of mist floating from his mouth into the air.
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
"Thud!"
...
When Xu Ran stepped onto the 191st step, suddenly a stream of white mist wafted out from his body, rising continuously like steam.
At the same time, the cold sweat on Xu Ran’s forehead evaporated in an instant, vanishing without a trace. The look of fatigue on his face disappeared at this moment as well.
At this time, Xu Ran seemed to have been reborn. His stamina fully recovered, he appeared spirited, and there was no trace that he had just braved nearly two hundred steps.
"Sure enough, walking the White Jade Stairs purely with physical power greatly enhances physical strength!"
There was a trace of surprise in Xu Ran’s tone.
When he emerged from the Dueling Arena, he knew that even on the White Jade Stairs, he couldn’t recover the Spiritual Qi in his body. So, to prepare for the upcoming trials, he had to minimize the use of Spiritual Qi.
Thus, a bold idea emerged: to climb the stairs solely with physical strength. This way, he could save Spiritual Qi and also use the immense pressure of climbing the stairs to refine his body.
After all, back in the mysterious mountain gully of the Great Mountain, he refined his body using the ravaging gusts.
If the winds can do it, why not this immense pressure?
The facts proved this to be true.
When Xu Ran stepped onto the 191st stair, his physical body broke through.
A boundless power suddenly burst out from his body, restoring his fatigued body to an optimal state.
"Huff!" Xu Ran instinctively wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, beaming with joy.
"It seems this is the way to pass the trial successfully!"
Since in the Dao Field and Dueling Arena, Spiritual Qi can’t be recovered and Innate Qi can’t be used, the only way to pass the trial is through the physical body.
Once the physical body successfully breaks through on the White Jade Stairs, it will return to an optimal state. This way, there is a greater assurance in completing the trial.
One has to admit, Xu Ran’s observational skills are exceedingly strong. Just by undergoing a single trial in the Dueling Arena, he discerned the best method to pass the trial.
At this moment.
Within the Dueling Arena.
Even if Xu Ran returned to the White Jade Stairs, he could still see all of Xu Ran’s actions in the central mirror of the Dueling Arena.
Meanwhile, Xu Ran’s actions made the Soul Bodies present gasp in shock.
"What’s going on? How has this newcomer’s physical power suddenly returned to its optimal state?"
"This is too bizarre! Isn’t it impossible to recover in the Dao Field?"
"If Spiritual Qi can’t recover, how can the physical body return to its best state?"
"This newcomer is doing things that are utterly unimaginative!"
......
Every single Soul Body present was immensely astounded.
Each of these Soul Bodies had undergone trials and were prodigies among their peers, each surpassing all their contemporaries. freёwebnoѵel.com
During their trials, none of the Soul Bodies could recover Spiritual Qi. Almost all prodigies failed because of this. The inability to recover Spiritual Qi was a significant disadvantage for a cultivator.
Even a prodigy who outshines a generation still finds themselves ranked within the long ages of the Origin Realm.
The three most vacuous Soul Bodies at the front were the strongest among these prodigies, dominating with overwhelming superiority.
Every Soul Body found it inexplicable that Xu Ran’s physical body suddenly returned to its optimal state.
After pondering for a long time, they still couldn’t deduce anything substantial and could only set their sights on the three leading Soul Bodies.
"This newcomer is really extraordinary; his comprehension and mentality are exceedingly strong!"
This time, the Little Junior Sister no longer spoke in a disdainful tone and was genuinely impressed by Xu Ran’s actions.
"This newcomer is likely to become our little junior brother!" said the Second Senior Brother.
All the Soul Bodies perked up their ears, eager to hear insights from the three foremost Soul Bodies. They knew these three certainly had secret knowledge.
"This newcomer, realizing the simplest yet harshest way to pass the trial right in the first challenge, is something no ordinary person dares to do!"
spoke the Little Junior Sister.
"Just by passing the first trial, discovering the White Jade Stairs’ capability to refine the body, and breaking through before the two-hundredth step to restore the body to its peak state!"
said the Second Senior Brother.
The words of the Little Junior Sister and Second Senior Brother reached the ears of all the Soul Bodies, making them grasp the key. Being prodigies who surpass an era, if they did not understand the key point, they weren’t worthy of entering this Dueling Arena.
"This newcomer really is ruthless!"
"Daring to climb the White Jade Stairs using solely physical strength, he’s genuinely fearless of being crushed by the pressure into pulp!"
"With such boldness, no wonder he earns the admiration of the three Senior Brothers!"
"Old Yuan, as a cultivator who specializes in the physical body, what do you think?"
Suddenly, all eyes turned towards the Soul Body that specialized in physical cultivation.
"What do I think? I watch it with my eyes!" said Old Yuan.
"You all know the pressure on the White Jade Stairs. Even as someone specialized in physical cultivation, I wouldn’t dare do that!"
Old Yuan’s tone was filled with astonishment.
Even he, specializing in physical cultivation, had to use cultivation techniques when climbing the White Jade Stairs. Even if it didn’t require Spiritual Qi, the physical body has its limits and also experiences fatigue.
Unless the body breaks through on the White Jade Stairs, the physical body can’t return to its best state, otherwise, it will only become weaker.
Upon hearing Old Yuan’s words, all the Soul Bodies fell into silence.
Even Old Yuan, who specializes in physical cultivation, couldn’t rely solely on the body to climb the White Jade Stairs, yet Xu Ran, not a specialist in physical cultivation, dared to make such a bold move.
"This is the confidence given by the Great Success of the Innate Saint’s Sacred Body!"
The voice of the Little Junior Sister echoed again...
Although she was equally surprised by Xu Ran’s actions, she too discovered this method during her trial. However, due to her weak physical strength, she didn’t adopt this method.
Sitting not far from her, the Second Senior Brother had significant authority on such matters.
"Second Senior Brother, you also found this method during your trial. What do you think?"
Although the Second Senior Brother was not a cultivator specializing in the physical body, he possessed a special constitution...
During his climb on the White Jade Stairs, he also refined his body with it, successfully restoring his body to an optimal state. This is why he could become the Second Senior Brother...
