She then performed the Nine Heavens Dance in succession.

Her elegant posture was like that of a fairy from the celestial realm.

Having learned from her previous experience, Su Mengyao unleashed several moves in one go.

Her body kept shifting and turning.

When they stopped, Su Mengyao was already standing on the sixty-fifth step.

But then, her expression turned even more unpleasant.

In that instant, she once again felt her limit.

And an unprecedented force of rejection and oppression.

Such rejection and oppression only appeared when they climbed the seventy-ninth step.

But this time it has appeared now.

Why?

Why is this happening?!

"Is the heavens not even allowing me to awaken my immortal body?"

"Nine Heavens Dance, legend has it that mastering the first move will allow you to overcome many mysteries. The mysteries of the Heavenly Ladder should also be easily overcome."

"I've already mastered it, so why is it still so difficult? Why..."

Su Mengyao kept muttering to herself, her heart gradually breaking down.

Suddenly, a voice echoed in her mind.

"Without mastering the skills and grasping the essence of the Nine Heavens Dance, how could one possibly unleash its full power?"

This is Li Bai's voice.

Su Mengyao was slightly taken aback, and suddenly remembered that day.

On the Flaming Sacred Mountain, he faced off against Li Taibai and suffered a crushing defeat.

Su Mengyao didn't know why she thought of Li Bai's words.

She only remembers retorting that she had already grasped the essence of it!

Feeling she had grasped the essence, Su Mengyao was ultimately defeated by Li Taibai, leaving her feeling extremely resentful.

Now, looking back, Su Mengyao wondered if she really hadn't grasped the essence.

"No, that's impossible."

Su Mengyao muttered to herself, but the next moment...

Another scene flashed into her mind.

It was Gu Jian from back then, who accompanied her in cultivating the Nine Heavens Dance within the Tianyao Sect.
