At high noon.

The entire sky above Sikong Planet was enveloped in a propitious air.

When Qiao Mu looked up at the sky, she felt that the weather today was particularly bright and refreshing.

As she stood quietly to the side of the long street, she could sense the buzz around her.

The streets and alleys were jam packed with crowds of onlookers. If not for the guards barring the heap of normal people so that they had somewhere to stand, they would probably have been buried by the crowds by now.

Wei Nanfeng walked up and remarked, "It is already noon. I wonder when the heaven-ascension stairs will be able to descend."

"Normally, the heaven-ascension stairs always appeared at high noon in the past," Situ Yi also mused.

But the heaven-ascension stairs had yet to appear even when the time was about to pass.

Uh… they felt like some accident might have happened to this time's heaven-ascension stairs operation.

Qiao Mu eyed the packed rows of people standing near her.

Could it be that this crowd? Was also going to climb the heaven-ascension stairs with them?

"Everybody listen to me. The prerequisite to these heaven-ascension stairs is to have reached level-13 entry-rank mystic cultivation. Additionally, only those who have grasped a trace of the five spirits can climb."

Liang Qingqing twitched her mouth uncontrollably as she looked at the surging peanut gallery beside her. "That, do you people know what the five spirits are, do you understand the power of the five spirits? Well, my meaning is that if you cannot meet both requirements, you normally won't even be able to climb up the first step. So you don't need to waste your energy and crowd here."

After Liang Qingqing said this, a man with a large face expressed his indignation. "Miss, what are you saying? Even though you may be talented and intelligent, you cannot look down on us low-leveled minor mystic cultivators!"

"That's right, that's right!"

"Who said that people who haven't reached level-13 mystic cultivation cannot climb up? If we don't try, how would we know that it's impossible!"

"That's right, who knows, Heavenly Law might show mercy this time and also allow us to ascend to broaden our horizons!"

Liang Qingqing was simply unable to respond.

Afterwards, Liang Qingqing kindly warned this large crowd, "The strongest mystic cultivator among all of you is only level 11, this… is truly pushing it. We don't know what kind of accident will occur if you cannot climb up the first step."

"Right, right, for safety purposes, you all had best disperse quickly." Don't f*cking crowd here and squeeze those who had the ability and wanted to climb the heaven-ascension stairs out in this heap of people in the back!

Wasn't this a joke!

The heaven-ascension stairs had a time restriction. If you couldn't climb up in six hours, the passageway would close.

They would then have to wait ten years for the next time it opens.

You ignorant spectators were crowded here because you had nothing to do, but didn't you know other people were in a hurry!

"Tsk!"

"Why should we leave?"

"If we don't try, then how do we know that it's impossible!"

"I don't care! I'm going to climb the heaven-ascension stairs!"

"Heaven-ascension stairs, heaven-ascension stairs!" More than a hundred minor mystic cultivators uttered shouts of protest.

Many of them had travelled a long distance from the eastern and western regions to participate in this grand occasion. They also wanted to try their luck at the heaven-ascension stairs.

There was no way that other people were going to boot them out now!

As the crowd burst into an uproar, a bolt of lightning streaked past the sky.
