Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 918 - 914: The Center of Attention (Part 1)

Xiao Yi spoke, and Bi Xing had already returned from the vicinity of the Demon Pillar.

"Yi’er, I have successfully completed the task." Bi Xing said indifferently, his demeanor still as cold and proud. He had sustained minor injuries, wiping the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Xing, you are Yi’er’s pride. Yi’er’s greatest achievement in this lifetime is having met you." Xiao Yi said with some excitement, tightly hugging Bi Xing’s arm, leaning her head against his chest, while her eyes were fixed on Su Chen: "Brother Xing, every time I see how pathetic other men are, I realize just how outstanding you truly are. Brother Xing, I am truly fortunate."

Bi Xing glanced at Su Chen, but, it was indeed just a glance.

A youngster of the Fifth Layer of the Firmament Extreme Realm is not fit to catch his eye.

He didn’t even have the slightest interest in troubling Su Chen, as he did not wish to lower himself.

At the same time.

"Zhen’er, I’m going to claim the spot." Su Chen spoke to Xiao Zhen.

"Be careful."

Su Chen walked towards the Demon Pillar: "Miss Lan Ling, I ask you to bear witness."

"Please proceed. However, young sir, Lan Ling would like to remind you that it is almost impossible to succeed without reaching the Ancestor Emperor Realm, and it is very easy to get injured," said Lan Ling, her tone indifferent and cold, yet she spoke an extra sentence.

Really, the Fifth Layer of the Firmament Extreme Realm is just too weak.

Lan Ling searched her memory, and it seemed that there had never been a Martial Cultivator of the Firmament Extreme Realm who had challenged the Demon Pillar, right?

Su Chen might be the first.

This is a suicidal act.

The terrifying aura of the Demon Pillar is enough to crush a Martial Cultivator of the Firmament Extreme Realm into pieces.

"Giggle, how interesting." Xiao Yi laughed: "Sister, oh sister, your husband truly does not fear death for you! How can you bear it, are you sending your husband to his demise? Or perhaps, you wish for your husband’s death, so you can find another?"

Xiao Yi blinked: "Sister, even if your husband dies, and you find someone else, it will be hard to find another monster like my Brother Xing, there are only a few in the entire Buddha Domain."

"Hmph, making light of human life, utter mindlessness," Xiao Shouxing observed Su Chen from a distance, his words dripping with scorn: "A man without even this bit of reason, what kind of man is he? To think he’d compare himself with Xing’er—doesn’t he know his own weight? Xing’er is the thirteenth-ranked on the Divine Heaven Leveling list, does he intend to compete with that too?"

It wasn’t just Xiao Shouxing and Xiao Yi who were mocking openly.

The surrounding crowd of spectators had also started to discuss, almost in unison: Su Chen is courting death!!!

Xiao Zhen did not retort.

She merely clenched her fists in silence.

She believes, believes in Su Chen.

At this moment.

Su Chen had already arrived about ten meters away from the Demon Pillar, and the pure black Qi on the pillar had started to swirl, surging toward the area where Su Chen stood.

"I bet, he’s about to be crushed to his knees by the Demon Pillar!" Xiao Yi glanced at Su Chen, confident in her judgement—Su Chen’s strength would likely fail him at this proximity.

Xiao Zhen did not engage.

"Humph, staying silent can’t cover the fact that you’re terrible at choosing men," Xiao Yi sneered.

At the same time, Su Chen appeared unfazed and continued walking.

Step.

Step.

Step.

...

One step, another step, yet another step.

Under the gaze of everyone, Su Chen walked as if on level ground, not showing any sign of stopping or slowing down, even as he approached within ten meters of the Demon Pillar.

Very relaxed.

Very quiet.

In the blink of an eye, Su Chen had reached about five meters from the Demon Pillar.

"No... it can’t be!!!" The look of mockery, disdain, and amusement on Xiao Yi’s face gradually began to vanish, her brows furrowed, disbelief lurking in the depths of her eyes.

He’s approaching within five meters? Isn’t that the distance only those of the Ancestor Emperor Realm can get close to? How could a little piece of trash from the Firmament Extreme Realm do this?

And moreover, it took only a breath or two, frighteningly fast.

What exactly is going on? Xiao Yi bit her lip.

It was not only Xiao Yi who was shocked and in disbelief, but Bi Xing also frowned, as did Xiao Shouxing and Xuu Lanting, who were similarly puzzled.

As for the throngs of spectators, each one widened their eyes, all falling silent.

Su Chen, continued to advance.

Step.

Another step.

He’s now within four meters of the Demon Pillar.

This... this... the achievement is already very impressive.

Just one step closer, and he’ll secure a spot.

Gurgle.

Gurgle.

Gurgle.

...

Many people couldn’t help but swallow, completely stunned. Could it be that this youngster from the Fifth Layer of Firmament Extreme Realm... really has a chance at getting a spot? How is that possible?

In their eyes, Su Chen’s strength at best should have left him severely wounded or even torn apart when he approached eight or nine meters from the Demon Pillar.

But now, it hasn’t been long, and Su Chen has already reached a position four meters from the Demon Pillar.

It’s really... fucking incomprehensible!!!

Furthermore, some observant ones noticed that not a trace of change showed on Su Chen’s face.

To think, even Bi Xing’s face turned slightly pale when he was four meters from the Demon Pillar.

Compared to that, could it be... could it be that Su Chen can continue to move forward?

As soon as this thought emerged, indeed.

Thud.

Su Chen took another step.

Three meters!

He’s now within three meters of the Demon Pillar!

He has claimed a spot.

For a moment, Xiao Yi shook her head fiercely, her face turning extremely ugly: "Impossible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!!"

Bi Xing, on the other hand, remained silent, his eyes filled with seriousness and Trembling Terror.

Only those who have personally experienced it know just how terrifying the Demon Pillar’s pressure is. When he approached within three meters, he almost vomited blood from the pressure.

A kid from the Fifth Layer of the Firmament Extreme Realm, unscathed and looking at ease?

What on earth is going on?

Could it be cheating? Impossible, there is no way to cheat in the Demon Pillar test, and besides, Miss Lan Ling is watching. If there was cheating, Miss Lan Ling would have spoken up.

The sea of Martial Cultivators who came to watch were already in an uproar, completely dumbfounded.

Each of them stared intently at Su Chen, as if witnessing a miracle.

The entire place fell utterly silent.

Even more so, at the window lattice of the ninth floor of Cloud Dawn Pavilion, Lan Ling’s beautiful face was covered with an expression of shock and disbelief.

And Su Chen.

Was actually... actually... actually planning to continue forward.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he lifted his foot once more!

The act of Su Chen lifting his foot again seemed to squeeze the hearts of all onlookers, every Martial Cultivator in front of the Demon Pillar was completely breathless.

The silence grew deeper, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The next moment.

Thud.

Down went Su Chen’s step.

He entered into the range within two meters of the Demon Pillar!

He truly did it.

In front of the Demon Pillar, the multitude of Martial Cultivators were about to go mad, their minds buzzing with explosion.

Unacceptable, they couldn’t accept it no matter what.

How long has it been since a Martial Cultivator managed to get within two meters of the Demon Pillar? Can’t remember, can you?

Who would have thought that today, before their very eyes, a kid from the Fifth Layer of the Firmament Extreme Realm managed to approach within two meters of the Demon Pillar.

Is it the world that has gone mad, or have they?
