Chapter 176 No Humanity

After trying several times, Ling Changge was bounced back by the force each time. She understood in her heart that her master must have known that she would jump down, so he set up the barrier on purpose.

"What a wise old man."

There was no other way, Ling Changge could only climb up little by little.

As the saying goes, it is easier to go up the mountain than to go down. When she returned to the room, she really didn't want to move a finger.

"When can you return my spiritual power to me?"

Ling Changge didn't even have dinner. He took a quick shower and fell asleep.

That night, she had a dream. She actually dreamed of Gu Junyao. In the dream, he mocked her, and she hated him so much that her teeth itched. However, in the dream, she could not get close to Gu Junyao. She could only shout, "Gu Junyao, you are an inhuman villain!"

When Ling Changge woke up in the morning, he was called to have breakfast as usual. As soon as he entered the main hall, he found that his master looked unhappy. Ling Changge smiled and said, "Master, good morning."

"Yeah." Gu Junyao's tone was cold. Ling Changge was stunned when he saw this. What happened to the master? What did he do to make the master angry?

Ling Changge sat opposite him, carefully picked up the porridge and took a sip, then looked at the osmanthus cake still on the table and drank it with a smile.

But she was still wondering whether she had done anything out of the ordinary yesterday.

After thinking for a long time, she realized that she was called up to climb the mountain in the middle of the night yesterday and continued climbing until she returned at night. During this period, she only saw her master once and had not offended him in any way.

After confirming that it was not her fault, she ate her breakfast with peace of mind.

Gu Junyao drank a few sips and put the porridge down. He had long lost the habit of eating. When his cultivation reached a certain level, he would not feel hungry even if he did not eat for a year.

Ling Changge finished his osmanthus pastry as usual and said with a smile, "Master, I didn't expect that there would be someone in the Wuji Sect who is so good at making pastries."

The disciple who came to collect the dishes looked at Ling Changge in surprise when he heard this, but turned around and walked out without saying anything.

"Have you finished eating?"

Ling Changge nodded: "Okay."

"We'll continue climbing the mountain today, back and forth a hundred times."

"How much?" Ling Changge held up his index finger. "One, one hundred times?"

"Yeah." Gu Junyao responded lightly.

Ling Changge almost collapsed.

A hundred times!

That would tire her to death.

At this moment, she really wanted to switch her raised index finger to her middle finger, but she didn't dare and couldn't.

"Master, why so many times?"

"Because I have no humanity."

"Puff, cough cough cough..." This sentence instantly reminded her of her dream last night, so much so that she almost choked to death on her own saliva: "What did you say?"

Gu Junyao glanced at her and said lightly: "A hundred times, come back to sleep after you finish climbing." As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared.

Ling Changge hung her head, and at this moment she wanted to die.

She slapped her face and said, "Cheer up, it's just a hundred times. Just crawl." She gritted her teeth and walked towards the door.

As soon as he reached the door, he bumped into a disciple who came to collect the dishes.

"Little Master, I'm sorry!"

"It's okay, it's okay." Ling Changge held the plate at an extremely fast speed. When he noticed the change in his speed, Ling Changge couldn't help but be stunned.

Although my skills were pretty good before, they are definitely far different from now. So this is what Master meant by tempering the body?

"Little Master, are you injured?"

"No." Ling Changge looked at his somewhat panicked expression and said with a smile, "Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. Did you make this osmanthus cake too?"

The disciple shook his head and said, "No, in our Wuji Sect, only the outer courtyard has food to eat. The inner courtyard disciples rarely eat. I have been in the Wuji Sect for so many years and have never seen the Sect Master eat."

"Then this breakfast..."

"The Sect Master gives it to me every morning after waking up."

When Ling Changge heard this, she felt indescribable emotions. After the disciple left, she looked back in the direction of the main hall and suddenly felt that the hundred times were not so difficult to accept.

She hadn't rested from morning to night. Originally, there were people following her to climb the mountain yesterday, but after climbing for a whole day, she felt as if her whole body was broken, so, more than half of the people climbed the mountain today.

Watching Ling Changge climbing up and down at an extremely fast speed, he didn't know how many times he had climbed back and forth, while they were only halfway up, and he even borrowed the spiritual power in his body while climbing.

"Little Grandmaster is Little Grandmaster. His fighting power is really not comparable to ours. Even with the Sect Master's sealed spiritual power, he is still dozens of times faster than us."

"Yeah! I slept like a dead pig last night, and I didn't open my eyes until the sun was already high in the sky. I heard that the young master had already climbed up and down several times."

"I'm convinced! I truly admire you. I bow down to you!"

Everyone looked at Ling Changge with awe.

At the beginning, Ling Changge's climbing speed was not fast, but after climbing fifty times back and forth, the steep mountain was as flat as the ground under her feet. Finally, at sunset, after the last round trip, she climbed to the top of the mountain within the time of an incense stick.

"Master!" Ling Changge's eyes were filled with joy: "Master, I did it!"

"Yeah." Gu Junyao looked at her and couldn't help but sigh at her talent: "Not bad."

Ling Changge smiled and said, "Master, what are we going to do next?"

Gu Junyao waved her arm, and the spiritual power in her body was instantly released. The feeling of fullness made her sigh.

This is the feeling! I’m finally back!

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from his body, and the crackling sound of his bones made Ling Changge startled.

What is going on?

Could it be that I’m calcium deficient because I climb too much and eat too little?

Seeing her stunned, Gu Junyao chuckled: "What are you thinking about? Hurry up and practice, you are about to advance."

Advanced?

Spirit King?

Ling Changge sat cross-legged with his hands placed in front of his chest. Powerful spiritual power shuttled between his hands. In his dantian, the five-colored lotus spun rapidly, and air vortices gathered on the top of the mountain.

When the people of Wuji Sect saw the strange phenomenon in the sky, they all stopped practicing.

"Which elder is going to advance?"

"Looking at this posture, maybe he will advance to the Spirit King."

"Could it be Senior Sister Miaoyun?"

At this moment, Miaoyun slowly walked into the crowd. Her eyes fell on the mountain, and her heart suddenly sank.

Isn’t that the mountain that Ling Changge climbed?

Could it be... could it be that she is going to advance?

How is that possible?

Yesterday, she heard the Great Elder mention that Ling Changge had just advanced to the peak of the Spirit Realm some time ago. You know, there are many elders in their Wuji Sect who have not advanced to the Spirit King level. They have been stuck at the peak of the Spirit Realm for hundreds of years. Even with the blessing of spiritual pills, they have never advanced to the Spirit King level.
