However, Gu Jian didn't care.

Can a demonic cultivator who doesn't cheat others be called a demonic cultivator?

"Walk."

Gu Jian spoke.

"Um……"

The peony nodded gently.

Gu Jian's actions completely convinced her.

Gu Jian led the demon army away, heading towards the Forbidden Land of Light.

The Heavenly Demon transformed back into a five-clawed golden dragon and led the way.

For teams capable of flying, a thousand miles is not a long journey.

Before long, they had flown three hundred miles...

Meanwhile, after Gu Jian led the demon army away...

The experts from the Yuling Sect and the Tianyao Sect all breathed a sigh of relief.

It must be said that the demon army led by Li Bai put a lot of pressure on them.

Especially Li Bai himself.

This capricious demonic cultivator, this being who has awakened some kind of heaven-defying divine body.

They had no idea under what circumstances he would commit such a killing.

"Li Bai is finally gone, we are safe now."

"This time, he also subdued the Heavenly Demon."

"His power has reached a terrifying level. Within this Cloud Soaring Secret Realm, we absolutely must not make an enemy of him, or we will surely die!"

"good……"

"However, he left without leaving behind the demon army. Is he planning to fulfill his promise and let Young Master Wang Kun climb the Heavenly Ladder, or is he offering this as a benefit to all of us?"

"I always felt that Li Taibai didn't have good intentions, but now that the demon army has left, we don't need to worry about it anymore."

"good……"

A series of sounds rang out, and the faces of the experts from the Yuling Sect and Tianyao Sect all showed excited expressions.

The younger generation of disciples were especially excited.

Their main purpose in coming here is to receive the opportunity on the Heavenly Ladder.

If one can awaken the sacred body, one will prosper from then on.

Wang Kun was equally excited, but he also felt like he had been tricked.

He had paid the price of five hundred people, thinking that only he could climb it.

Now, after Li Bai left, everyone can climb it?

In that case, wouldn't his men have died in vain?

Wang Kun felt very embarrassed, as if he had been made a fool of.

It also gives you a feeling of disgust, like you've swallowed a fly.

He had unspeakable suffering, but he didn't show it.

Then, Wang Kun said to the powerful members of the Spirit Control Sect behind him, "This young master will go and awaken his immortal body first. You will protect this young master."

"The rest of you, wait until I awaken my immortal body before you climb, so as not to interfere with my awakening of my holy body!"

"Yes, young master!"

Although the experts of the Spirit Control Sect were unwilling, they still agreed.

Some older powerful individuals and elders have already passed the optimal period for awakening their sacred bodies.

Some of the young, talented disciples had no room to object to Wang Kun's orders.

Wang Kun leaped into the Sky-Connecting Plaza and headed towards the Sky-Connecting Immortal Ladder.

On the Tianyao Sect's side, Su Mengyao was also quite excited.

Elder Jiang Yinzhu, who was behind her, was also urging her on.

"Holy Maiden, hurry! Awaken your immortal body before Li Taibai changes his mind. If he changes his mind and comes back, it will be too late for regrets!"

"clear."

Su Mengyao nodded, and was about to step forward when she stopped and looked at Ai Youwei and Liu Ruyan, saying, "Youwei, Ruyan, shall we come together?"

Ai Youwei originally had a strong interest in awakening the Holy Body, but she is still immersed in the sadness of being rejected by her senior brother.

She glanced at Su Mengyao and said, "I'm not in the mood right now. You can go ahead, you slut Mengyao."

Su Mengyao gritted her teeth; this guy was calling her a slut again.

I wonder if I took the wrong medicine again!

Liu Ruyan was somewhat surprised, then smiled and said, "Mengyao, you go first. I'm afraid too many people will affect your awakening of the Holy Body."

In fact, Liu Ruyan was also thinking about Gu Jian.

Her senior brother's decisive rejection once again left Liu Ruyan feeling very unsettled.

Her Dao heart is not very stable right now, and she needs to do some mental preparation.

I need to think carefully about how to please my senior brother so that he can forgive me.

"Okay."

Su Mengyao nodded, glanced at Ai Youwei and Liu Ruyan, and then headed towards the Heavenly Ladder.

At this moment, the rain of blessings had stopped.

However, the air was still filled with the moisture of the blessed water.

This moisture cannot permanently enhance one's talent.

But for Su Mengyao, who was preparing to climb the Heavenly Ladder, it was a godsend.

Wang Kun, who was not far away, had already begun his climb.

Su Mengyao arrived at the foot of the Heavenly Ladder at a leisurely pace.

She did not climb immediately.

Instead, he sat down cross-legged on the spot.

As she sensed the power of the laws of the Heavenly Ladder, she tried to calm her mind.

Whether it was Li Bai, who climbed the Heavenly Ladder and awakened his legendary divine body.

The awakening of immortal bodies by Qiao Xier and the other two also brought her a huge shock.

This made it impossible for the proud woman to remain calm.

However, Su Mengyao knew that now was not the time to think about these things.

She needs to be in top condition to attempt the Heavenly Ladder.

They can awaken immortal bodies or even divine bodies!

She believed she could do it too.

It took Su Mengyao a long time to calm herself down.

Then, she opened her eyes.

Su Mengyao looked up and saw Wang Kun of the Yuling Sect, who had already climbed the thirtieth step of the Heavenly Ladder.

Then, she leaped up and began to climb the Heavenly Ladder.

step.

Two steps.

Three steps.
