"Thank you for your invitations, but I have yet to consider which force to join… I plan to decide at a later date," Duan Ling Tian responded with a faint smile when he received the invitations from the Baili Clan and the Profound Sky Dao Sect. After he declined the invitations, he left with Huan'er.

The onlookers only regained their senses when Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er disappeared from their sight.

​

"It seems like another monster has appeared in our Nan Dou Territory," a middle-aged man murmured to himself.

"A grassroots prodigy broke the record set by Sect Leader Yu Jian Cheng of the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect… Who would have expected this?"

"He's such a monstrous talent… Even the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect will definitely invite him to join their sect."

The onlookers were in awe, and most of them were certain that the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect that had always remained indifferent would put their pride aside to extend an invitation to Duan Ling Tian.

As expected, the prodigies from the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect had begun to search high and low for Duan Ling Tian so they could invite him to join their sect.

…

After Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er left the Formation Spirit Pagoda, they wandered around without a specific destination. It did not take long before a familiar mountain appeared before their eyes. The mountain that towered past the clouds in the sky looked similar to the Peak of Gravity they climbed in the past. However, this Peak of Gravity was in a different location from the one they climbed previously. The first Peak of Gravity they climbed was located in a vast plain while the foot of this Peak of Gravity was surrounded by a swamp forest.

"The Peak of Gravity!"

With its towering height, this Peak of Gravity was still very eye-catching despite being surrounded by a swamp forest. The mountain towered over the trees, making the trees look tiny in comparison.

Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er stood in a small clearing around the Peak of Gravity as they surveyed their surroundings. Previously, there were dozens of people present at the foot of the first Peak of Gravity they encountered. Currently, there were only two people present at the foot of the mountain and one person climbing the mountain.

A middle-aged man, one of the two men present on the scene, shook his head and said with a sigh, "I wonder how high Third Brother can go… His name won't be listed on the ranking if he fails to reach the 2,000th step."

"Third Brother is too stubborn… The highest he has been was the 1,965th step. It's impossible for him to climb up another 35 steps unless his strength improves to the next stage," a young man replied as he shook his head.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Soon enough, the two men discovered the presence of the two newcomers. They were instantly captivated by Huan'er's flawless beauty.

"These two should be Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er, right?"

"Such a peerless beauty… Who else could she be if not Huan'er?"

In the Genius Secret Realm, everyone knew there was no one more beautiful than Huan'er. Therefore, it was not difficult for the two men to guess the two newcomers' identities.

"I wonder if he's the Duan Ling Tian who broke the record at the Formation Spirit Pagoda?" the young man asked in a low voice.

"I don't think so… The Duan Ling Tian who's with Huan'er didn't even manage to reach the 3,000th step at the Peak of Gravity. Only eight years have passed, how strong could he have gotten?" The middle-aged man shook his head.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er prepared to climb the Peak of Gravity again.

Duan Ling Tian smiled as he asked Huan'er, "Huan'er, shall we have a competition?"

"Alright." Huan'er nodded.

The two men who were looking at the duo saw the duo vanishing into thin air at this moment.

"Teleportation Profundity?" the two men cried out in unison.

It was not that no one had attempted to climb the Peak of Gravity using the Teleportation Profundity. However, using the Teleportation Profundity would cause discomfort since one would be instantly transported from a low altitude to a high altitude. Therefore, most people preferred to slowly advance to the top.

When Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er's name began to flash above the Peak of Gravity, the two men looked up immediately. Their eyes widened when they saw Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er had already reached the 3,000th step after casting the Teleportation Profundity once.

With this, Duan Ling Tian's ranking rose sharply after surpassing his previous record. On the other hand, Huan'er ranking remained the same since her previous record was also at the 3,000th step.

Nevertheless, the two men were thoroughly shocked.

"Heavens! They have reached the 3,000th step after using the Teleportation Profundity once. They covered 30,000 meters in just a blink of an eye!"

"I'm not surprised Huan'er climbed up to the 3,000th step since she had done it before. However, what's going on with Duan Ling Tian? Eight years ago, he couldn't even climb up to the 3,000th step, but now, he reached the 3,000th step immediately after casting the Teleportation Profundity!"

"Huan'er's body moved slightly, but Duan Ling Tian didn't move at all. It's like he didn't feel the pressure at all."

…

Meanwhile, people at the other 98 Peaks of Gravity had already discovered the changes in the Peak of Gravity Ranking. The atmosphere turned lively again in just an instant.

"Duan Ling Tian? Huan'er?"

"They're challenging the Peak of Gravity again?"

"Duan Ling Tian managed to climb up to the 3,000th step this time? Didn't they say the Duan Ling Tian with Huan'er is not the same person as the Duan Ling Tian who broke the Formation Spirit Pagoda's record?"

…

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

After receiving messages from their friends, many young prodigies stopped what they were doing and made their way to the nearest Peak of Gravity.

…

After reaching the 3,000th step, Duan Ling Tian used his Celestial Origin Energy that had been boosted with the Space Elemental Profundity to protect himself from the pressure of the Peak of Gravity. He looked at the ranking and discovered Su Li was ranked first after climbing to the 3,552nd step. 'Su Li's first again! He's quite strong. I didn't expect him to be a prodigy from the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect; I thought he's a grassroots prodigy.'

Earlier, Duan Ling Tian had heard people talking about Su Li when he was outside of the Formation Spirit Pagoda. That was how he found Su Li was a prodigy from the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect. Based on various rankings, it seemed like Su Li was stronger than Yu Tian Xing who was widely acknowledged as the most outstanding young prodigy in the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect.

Huan'er waited for Duan Ling Tian as she stood at the side.

Finally, Duan Ling Tian called out, "Huan'er, let's continue."

…

Duan Ling Tian and Huan'er's speed of ascent was so fast that the two men at the foot of the Peak of Gravity were dumbfounded.

"After climbing up to the 3,000th step, he's still so fast?" Although Duan Ling Tian's current speed was slower than before, the two men could tell his speed was still very fast.

Duan Ling Tian continued to climb until the 3,500th step before his speed began to slow down again.

Meanwhile, Huan'er had already begun to slow down after climbing the 3,300th step.

"Did Duan Ling Tian hide his strength eight years ago?"

"Isn't that obvious? He's now ranked second in the Peak of Gravity Ranking, and he's climbing the Peak of Gravity so effortlessly. There's no doubt he hid his strength eight years ago."

When most people saw Duan Ling Tian surpassed Yu Tian Xing and rose to second place, most of them were convinced Duan Ling Tian was the same person as the Duan Ling Tian who had broken the record at the Formation Spirit Pagoda.

"I wonder if Huan'er became stronger over the past eight years or if she hid her strength eight years ago as well… She's almost at the 3,400th step now."

Soon enough…

"He's surpassed him!"

At this time, Duan Ling Tian had surpassed Su Li's record at the 3,552nd step when he climbed to the 3,553rd step. To everyone's surprise, he did not stop and continued to climb the Peak of Gravity.

"Is Duan Ling Tian trying to break another record of Sect Leader Yu Jian Cheng of the Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect?"

Many people were still in shock while a few others looked at Duan Ling Tian's name in excitement. Most people felt optimistic about him breaking Yu Jian Cheng's record at the Peak of Gravity.

"Can he create another miracle?"

"I think it's possible… After all, he managed to break Yu Jian Cheng's record at the Formation Spirit Pagoda. It shouldn't be difficult for him to break another of Yu Jiang Cheng's records."

"I agree. If he's capable of breaking Yu Jian Cheng's record at the Formation Spirit Pagoda, he should have no problem breaking Yu Jian Cheng's record at the Peak of Gravity."

"If he manages to pull this off, there's no doubt he's going to be known as the most outstanding young prodigy in the Nan Dou Territory.

…

At the same time, Yu Tian Xing and He Zhan arrived at the foot of one of the Peaks of Gravity. They stood in the distance as they looked at the ranking above the peak.

"This Duan Ling Tian is formidable!" He Zhan was shocked by Duan Ling Tian's strength. Then, he asked, "Senior Tian Xing, do you think Duan Ling Tian is capable of breaking the sect leader's record?"
