"Jiang Yuan, I can't get up here!"

A cliff two hundred meters high blocked their way, and Leng Yue shook her head, looking at the cliff with disappointment.

"I'll give it a try first!"

Jiang Yuan placed his palm directly on the cliff face, and a suction force far stronger than before came from the cliff.

Clearly, this cliff is also made of spirit-absorbing stones, and its ability to absorb energy is stronger than the previous two levels.

"I should be able to handle this!" Jiang Yuan estimated the energy consumption and said confidently, "I'll take you up!"

"Although I owe you my life, I don't think it's worth it for me to die here!" Leng Yue said calmly, shaking her head.

Why did you say that?

Jiang Yuan was puzzled.

“If you try to climb the cliff without any energy in your body, you’ll be sucked dry by the force field here! I’m only at the fifth level, even if I made it up, I’d die at the entrance!” Leng Yue took a deep breath after saying that, and continued, “But I owe you a life, and I’ll definitely give it to you if you want it back!”

"What are you thinking about!"

Jiang Yuan activated the Chains of Order, and the glowing chains bound Leng Yue around the waist. "I'm afraid you'll be bullied by the Holy Spirit if I leave you here, so it's better if you stay with me!"

Leng Yue remained silent. She had seen through life and death, and even if Jiang Yuan insisted on pushing her to the brink of death, she would not hesitate.

"Transform!"

With a soft voice, Jiang Yuan's divine energy, like lightning, flowed into Leng Yue's body through the Chains of Order. "Hold on tight, I'm going!"

Leng Yue's heart skipped a beat almost imperceptibly, but before she could even feel moved, Jiang Yuan had already violently climbed up the rock face.

Climbing 200 meters is definitely a tiring job, especially now that he has to carry someone, but Jiang Yuan did not stop at all and steadily kept breaking records for the highest height.

The divine energy was being consumed very quickly. He not only had to deal with his own consumption, but also had to provide energy for Leng Yue. As for why he had to bring Leng Yue along...

Sigh, Leng Yue is Ning Yanlan's friend after all, and he can't ignore her for both personal and professional reasons.

Twenty meters passed in the blink of an eye, and Princess Pingxi and her companion had only just arrived at the foot of the cliff.

"Damn, have these foreigners gone mad?" The guard leader was somewhat surprised to see the two who had already begun climbing.

"A sixth-tier being dares to bring a fifth-tier person to the entrance of the fourth level? They're really courting death!" Princess Pingxi looked up at the two of them.

"Your Highness, only those on the eighth level can ascend to the fourth level. We should not take the risk lightly!"

The head guard was afraid that his princess might do something rash, because if she got angry, she would want to go up to the fourth floor.

"hehe!"

Princess Pingxi smiled enigmatically, and said in a deep voice, "Don't go up there. After all, it's safer to wait until those royal bloodlines arrive from the palace!"

"And what about Her Highness the Princess?"

“Me?” Princess Pingxi raised her chin, pointing at Jiang Yuan. “I’ll take him back to the Holy Spirit Temple!”

"Your Highness, please don't be willful!"

The head guard tried to stop him, but Pingxi leaped and grabbed the cliff face, climbing upwards at an incredible speed.

"Your Highness!"

The head guard was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. This was the fourth level, a place only those at the eighth rank could enter. How could a princess at only the seventh rank be so reckless?

"No, I have to report to the Palace Master!"

"Oh dear, that won't work either! I still have bloodlines in my possession. What will happen to these bloodlines if I leave?"

Unlike the head of the guards, Jiang Yuan and Princess Pingxi were thoroughly enjoying their climb.

The cliff built of spirit-absorbing stones is not just a dangerous obstacle; it also serves to hone the energy within the climber's body. Of course, this effect is only activated when a certain point is experienced.

For example, there's the physical limit you experience when running. Once you get past that point, your body's adaptability will greatly increase, and then you'll experience beneficial bodily feedback.

"Hey boss, wanna have a competition?"

Unbeknownst to her, Princess Pingxi was almost catching up with Jiang Yuan's speed, with only a dozen meters separating them.

Jiang Yuan ignored Ping Xi's provocation and continued to maintain a steady pace. He only had 81 points of divine power and was also carrying someone. Blindly pursuing speed would only disrupt his rhythm.

"Are you afraid of losing?" Princess Pingxi followed closely behind, and the gap between the two narrowed to five meters.

"How about this: if I beat you, you'll join our Holy Spirit Temple! If you beat me, you can name your terms!"

Princess Pingxi continued to set conditions, seemingly without ever considering that she might lose.

Seeing that Jiang Yuan didn't react, Princess Pingxi said anxiously, "You've given me an answer, are you going to play or not?"

"I don't play children's games!" Jiang Yuan would never joke about his own affiliation.

"Boss, are you scared?"

Princess Pingxi smiled smugly. She quickened her pace, wanting to keep up with Jiang Yuan. "Don't worry, I, Pingxi, am not so desperate as to be indiscriminate! I let you into the Holy Spirit Temple because I value your potential, not because I want your body!"

"Is this never going to end?!" Jiang Yuan was speechless at the woman who had suddenly become so clingy.

“If you’re not satisfied with only valuing your potential, you can also pursue me. Our Holy Spirit Temple values ​​freedom in love!” Princess Pingxi said, becoming more interested the more the other party insisted.

"In that case, let's not make a bet! Let's just have a simple competition!" Jiang Yuan looked at the confident Princess Pingxi and felt a surge of competitive spirit.

"There are still 150 meters left. I will make you admit defeat!" Princess Pingxi was eager to try when she saw Jiang Yuan agree.

"Fifth-tier Berserk!"

"Strong Blood!"

With the activation of two amplification skills, Jiang Yuan's aura underwent a dramatic transformation. He instructed Leng Yue, "Try to cooperate with me!"
