My Brothers Are Geniuses While I’m The Useless One

Soon, Jing Lichen stepped onto the topping ladder. The stone staircase, which had been peaceful before, suddenly heard four whistles, and strong winds roared from all directions, as if thousands of soldiers and horses were waving their swords in unison, and the entire stone staircase seemed to be shaking in mid-air.

Being caught up in the force of the wind, which was like the light and shadow of a sword, Jing Lichen's thin and childlike figure became illusive and ethereal. Faintly, eight purple holy soul beads appeared behind him, spinning around and emitting streaks of purple light.

The rays of light weakened rapidly, and Jing Lichen's steps became staggering, almost falling off the stone staircase. He stopped and his body began to shake uncontrollably.

Even if he didn't look back, Gu Fenghua could still imagine his panic expression.

"Jing Lichen, believe in yourself, you can definitely do it!" Gu Fenghua shouted loudly.

"You can definitely do it!" Luo Enen and others also shouted loudly.

Jing Lichen's illusory figure shook violently, stopped trembling, and continued to move forward.

His pace became slower and slower, and every step he took seemed to require all his strength. Behind him, the purple glow is getting lighter and lighter, like a candle in the wind, which may be extinguished at any time.

Obviously, resisting the strong wind of the topping ladder not only consumes the holy energy, but also consumes the power of the holy source. Once Jing Lichen cannot hold on, not only will he be seriously injured, but his cultivation level will also be difficult to maintain.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts were in their throats. This is not to say that they have any friendship with Jing Lichen, but because what Jing Lichen is going through now, they will also have to face it in the near future. If Jing Lichen succeeds, their confidence will naturally increase greatly. If Jing Lichen fails, their self-confidence will definitely be greatly damaged.

What is also gratifying is that although the purple glow behind Jing Lichen is getting lighter and lighter, it has never disappeared, and his steps, which are as heavy as carrying a mountain on his back, have never stopped.

Sweat had soaked through his clothes at some point. Every step he took would leave wet footprints on the stone stairs. You could even vaguely see the exposed veins on his neck.

Unconsciously, Luo Enen and others also clenched their fists. Gu Fenghua stared closely at Jing Lichen's back, with a nervous look in his eyes.

Although he "saw" his second innate Holy Spirit root, the Holy Spirit root had just condensed and was too weak. At this time, Jing Lichen was actually relying on his will to support himself.

For a Saint Master, this is also one of the most difficult trials. As long as Jing Lichen passes this test, Gu Fenghua believes that he will become one of the top experts in Wuji Holy Heaven in the future. But if he fails, he will probably have no hope anymore, and his hard work will not help him. It is destined to be in vain.

Closer, closer. Finally, Jing Lichen stepped on the last stone staircase and threw himself towards the ground.

Before he fell to the ground, two Star Observation City disciples stepped forward to support him, and then took out two holy pills for him to drink. Originally, the two of them wanted to help him sit cross-legged and immediately refine the elixir power to restore the holy energy, but he insisted on steadying his body, turned his head, and bowed deeply towards Gu Fenghua.

No one knows how difficult it was for him to walk step by step, and no one knows how much help Gu Fenghua gave him. Only he knew that if it weren't for the mysterious holy elixir, he would never have been able to step on the topping ladder and arrive at Star Observation City safely.
