Chapter 187 Bottomless Pit

Several disciples were stunned, wondering if she didn't understand the current situation.

Her identity has been exposed, so she should be the one who is afraid.

Immediately, a disciple spoke righteously, "Nan Xiao, you colluded with the demon clan and murdered your fellow disciples. Now, you have no intention of repenting and even dared to harm others in public. Such evil deeds are simply heinous crimes."

"If you admit your mistake now and surrender yourself before the various sect leaders, you might even be given a lighter sentence."

“·······”

Nan Xiao listened to them talking a lot of nonsense and his patience gradually ran out.

She said bluntly, "You're not leaving, are you?"

The disciples were confused.

Before they could react, they saw countless vines growing in an instant, trapping these people in no time, just a moment was enough.

Nan Xiao moved quickly and decisively, kicking them one by one, forcing them all to roll down and start over again.

Shen Chaochao didn't fall down many steps. After Nan Xiao dealt with a few disciples who were in the way, he said nonchalantly: "The person you found is not good enough."

"Anything else?"

Facing Nan Xiao's provocation, Shen Chaochao did not get angry but laughed instead. Anyway, her goal had been achieved, so what could happen if she was allowed to be arrogant for a while longer?

The disciples currently in this position were all of average ability. They had worked so hard to reach this position, and now being beaten back by Nan Xiao, they would surely feel resentment. Furthermore, coupled with her claims of being a spy, they would believe her without a doubt, and thus spread the story of Nan Xiao being a spy.

At that time, she only needs to play the role of an innocent victim framed by Nan Xiao. After all, she has so many witnesses.

Nan Xiao also laughed. It seemed that Shen Chaochao would not come up in a short time.

Then she would have no choice but to wait for her at a higher place. After all, with her proud and arrogant personality, how could she allow her to be lower than herself?

She thought about it and decided that the distance was not too high now. There was still half a month left until the end. If she kicked her down now, she could still crawl back up. She couldn't stay here forever, so she decided to wait until the last day to take action.

In this way, even if she had three heads and six arms, it would probably be difficult for her to get up.

······

I have to say that Shen Chaochao found this angle very well. From the outside, it seemed like she was pushed down by Nan Xiao.

The people watching outside could not hear the sound inside.

So, the disciples who were watching saw this scene.

Nan Xiao first pushed Shen Chaochao, and then kicked several innocent disciples down as well.

After kicking, she even laughed.

This smile looks evil.

There were many victims present who had been harmed by Nan Xiao. They immediately launched a 500-word curse on her behavior without repeating themselves.

·····

While climbing the stairs, Nan Xiao sneezed several times without warning.

Ever since she started practicing Taoism, she hasn't had any minor ailments like colds and fevers. This can only mean that someone is talking about her behind her back.

She couldn't help but think narcissistically in her heart that too much personal charm is also a trouble.

Nan Xiao quickened his pace and caught up with Qiao Yue and his group before dark.

Qiao Yue didn't ask what they said, but with a gentle smile, she reached out to tuck her messy hair behind her ears and asked with concern: "Little Junior Sister, did you suffer any loss?"

Nan Xiao casually put his arm around Qiao Yue and chuckled, "Of course not."

She began to talk about her heroic achievements: "Sister, let me tell you, I was really powerful just now. I kicked them all down one by one..."

······

That evening

Jian Mo and Lu Huai broke through to the Golden Core stage one after another and directly made Nan Xiao emo.

It’s okay for Senior Sister Jian. After all, she has been stuck at the peak of Foundation Establishment for a long time, so it’s normal for her to break through.

But Lu Huai had just achieved a breakthrough not long ago, and now he has reached the Golden Core stage? Why?

She was so jealous that she almost tore the handkerchief.

That night she tried hard to absorb spiritual energy, striving to break through as soon as possible.

A night passed, everything was calm, and Nan Xiao still had no breakthrough.

···

In the following days, everyone worked hard to climb the ladder during the day and meditate and practice at night.

As the stairs grew higher, the pace of the crowd's ascent slowed. Some disciples, reaching their limit, simply sat down where they were, racing against time to utilize the rich spiritual energy there to cultivate.

More and more disciples are making breakthroughs here.

Even the six people from Jiang Xia who were at the front had each broken through to a small realm in the past few days.

Nan Xiao should be the only one who has not made a breakthrough. She feels that her wood spiritual root has reached its full state, but her fire spiritual root is like a bottomless pit, always just a little bit short.

It's like seeing a ghost.

In this situation, it was impossible for her to stop and study her fire spiritual root. She could only wait until she got out.

The higher the stairs were, the slower Nan Xiao and his companions moved, and gradually they could see the backs of Su Xun and his companions.

From time to time, we can shout a few words and chat across the air.

And Shen Chaochao has always been ten steps behind Nan Xiao.

Because of the height issue, everyone cherishes the position they have climbed to, and there are fewer people who deliberately do bad things.

······

There are only two days left, and Jiang Xia is now in first place. Although he is only a few steps ahead of the others, their current position is too high, and one step is enough to consume most of their time.

Following closely behind were Su Yan, Zhou Shiqing, and Chen Wenxuan, who were all on the same step.

Han Yicheng and Yang Boyong are relatively far behind.

Many direct disciples, after reaching their limits, choose to use the last bit of time to practice.

On this last section of the journey, there are basically no ordinary disciples, they are all direct disciples.

When Nan Xiao passed Ye Lingling and Li Buyan, the two of them looked at Nan Xiao in surprise.

They originally thought that based on Nan Xiao's spiritual root qualifications, he would definitely be at the bottom among the direct disciples.

Now they have been overtaken and are at the bottom, which is really heartbreaking.

Nan Xiao and the other two climbed up a few more steps, and Jian Mo also chose to stay.

Later, they overtook Zhang Shuyi and Song Hui one after another and caught up with Su Xun and others.

Su Xun was in a state of disarray, with bruises on the corners of his mouth. He said with a look of deep sorrow, "Little Junior Sister, don't you feel guilty?"

In the past, Third Senior Brother often couldn't understand this matter, and even if he realized it later, he wouldn't bother with him.

It’s different now. With the junior sister fanning the flames behind the scenes, the third senior brother has changed.

Nan Xiao blinked her bright eyes and said innocently, "Fourth Brother, I don't understand what you are saying."

She didn't do anything. It was Third Senior Brother who beat her. What does it have to do with her?

Su Xun: “…”

hateful.

Nan Xiao tried to climb up two more steps, but he was completely exhausted.

She collapsed on the spot and waved to Qiao Yue and the others, saying, "I can't do it anymore. You guys go ahead."

She could adjust her condition just in time to wait for Chen Chaochao to come up.

Lu Huai looked at Shen Chaochao who had been following behind him, frowned, and sat down next to her: "I'll go with you."

"no,

Nan Xiao dismissed his words outright.

Lu Huai looked calm and collected, and it was obvious that he had not reached his limit. It would be a pity to stop here.
