513: Chapter 513 Bai Chenfeng Challenges the Extreme Realm of Wind!

Bai Chenfeng gazed at the imminent challenge of the Extreme Realm of Wind before him, taking a deep, steadying breath as his eyes grew exceptionally resolute.

Li Fan's ten-ring achievement had dealt him a massive blow, so he was determined to conquer this Extreme Realm of Wind!

And as Bai Chenfeng's challenge commenced...

At that moment, everyone outside was fixated on Bai Chenfeng's situation, unconsciously holding their breath.

"It's finally Bai Chenfeng's turn to challenge!"

"The main event is finally starting!"

"I wonder which event Bai Chenfeng chose. It should be the Extreme Realm of Wind, right?"

"Most likely, yes!"

"If it's the Extreme Realm of Wind, he'll probably break the record. I'm just worried that, still reeling from Li Fan's provocation, he might challenge some extremely difficult event again."

"He probably won't. Bai Chenfeng doesn't seem like the type to get easily provoked into recklessness."

...

Now, as the scene above the Holy Mountain gradually materialized...

The people across the major domains of the Great Universe in the virtual venues all began speculating about Bai Chenfeng's choice.

As spectators, what they most wanted to see was, naturally, for Bai Chenfeng to choose the Extreme Realm of Wind.

However, which specific event Bai Chenfeng would choose would only be revealed shortly.

And aside from the spectators...

On the various cosmic ships at the periphery of the star domain, the high-ranking members of the major factions were also eagerly anticipating Bai Chenfeng's choice.

"Chenfeng, you must calm your mind now!"

On the Yuan He Hall ship.

The Hall Elder leading the team narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed intently on Bai Chenfeng in the scene.

He understood Bai Chenfeng.

Therefore, he was absolutely certain that Bai Chenfeng wouldn't choose any other event—he would definitely choose the Extreme Realm of Wind!

Moreover, he was utterly convinced that Bai Chenfeng possessed the strength to break the Extreme Realm of Wind's record! The only variable now was Bai Chenfeng's state of mind.

He had witnessed the entire casual conversation between Bai Chenfeng and Li Fan earlier. He could tell that Bai Chenfeng was currently suppressing a surge of frustration; his long-standing pride made him unwilling to fall behind others.

And if he undertook the challenge while emotionally charged, the slightest lapse could lead to a mistake, resulting in failure.

...

Back to Bai Chenfeng's side.

At this moment...

As the four characters for 'Extreme Realm of Wind' materialized...

The hearts of the people outside, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled.

Bai Chenfeng had indeed chosen the Extreme Realm of Wind!

If that was the case, then Bai Chenfeng had an extremely high probability of breaking the record!

While everyone breathed a sigh of relief...

The scene of the Holy Mountain before Bai Chenfeng had already transformed into a massive celestial staircase.

This staircase consisted of ten steps, each one colossal, like a small continent.

Such a sight truly caused Bai Chenfeng to frown.

"What is this?"

"It seems I must ascend the celestial stairs, but... what does this have to do with the Extreme Realm of Wind?"

Bai Chenfeng murmured softly to himself.

He could roughly guess the general procedure of the upcoming challenge, but he couldn't understand at all why a celestial staircase would appear for his Extreme Realm of Wind challenge.

Could there be something peculiar about this staircase?

And it wasn't just Bai Chenfeng who was puzzled.

Almost everyone outside was also deeply confused.

However, soon...

With the appearance of ten phantom images, this confusion was unveiled.

Like the other events...

These ten phantom images represented the ten most powerful geniuses throughout history in the Extreme Realm of Wind!

The next second...

These phantom images, one by one, soared towards the celestial staircase, demonstrating the scenes of their own challenge attempts.

And just as these phantom images reached the first step of the celestial staircase...

A terrifying azure gale suddenly swept up, halting the forward momentum of the ten figures.

The power of this azure gale was utterly terrifying!

If one's mastery of the Great Dao of Wind was insufficient to defend against or neutralize it, one's soul would undoubtedly be extinguished on the spot!

As the ten continued their ascent...

The next step gave rise to a violet gale, its power even more fearsome.

One phantom image—the one ranked tenth—barely persisted for a few breaths here before being blown away by the gale, its body riddled with holes, revealing stark white bone. The scene was horrifying to the extreme!

As the remaining phantom images continued to climb...

The gales on the subsequent steps grew increasingly more outrageous!

Finally...

The last phantom image—the Record Holder of the Extreme Realm of Wind—relying on heaven-defying strength, actually managed to reach the seventh step!

However, even someone as powerful as him...

Under the assault of that strange, bizarre golden gale, after persisting for ten breaths, was also blown away.

Witnessing this scene...

Everyone outside couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath of cold air.

It was said the Extreme Realm of Wind's difficulty wasn't too high.

But seeing it now, it seemed it wasn't low at all!

"So that's how it is!"

Bai Chenfeng's eyes narrowed slightly at this moment, clarity dawning in his heart.

He finally understood the nature of this Extreme Realm of Wind.

The peculiarity was indeed on the celestial staircase!

In an instant...

Bai Chenfeng's eyes narrowed, his entire being surging with fighting spirit.

He wondered, with his strength, how far could he go?!

And his minimum goal...

Was unmistakably to surpass that Record Holder who had reached the seventh layer!

Soon...

As the ten phantom images vanished...

Bai Chenfeng was finally about to formally begin his challenge.

The next second...

Bai Chenfeng's feet stirred with wind, and with a single leap, he stepped onto that first celestial step!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

A terrifying gale swept over, continuously crashing against Bai Chenfeng, as if intent on tearing him apart.

However...

Bai Chenfeng raised a hand, and a wind barrier abruptly enveloped him.

Standing within the wind barrier, Bai Chenfeng appeared completely at ease, showing no sign of strain whatsoever.

Such a sight...

Truly evoked some astonishment from the onlookers outside.

It was said Bai Chenfeng's mastery of the Great Dao of Wind was extremely high. Seeing it now, it indeed appeared quite remarkable!

However, this was only the first step. It was still far too early for any conclusions.

...

Soon...

As time passed...

Bai Chenfeng, with great ease, arrived upon the fourth celestial step.

This was already an achievement sufficient to leave his name on the Holy Mountain, likely ranking within the top four.

But judging from the composed expression on Bai Chenfeng's face, this was clearly not his end goal!

His target was the eighth step!

Meanwhile, outside, after witnessing this, the people were practically ready to start celebrating for Bai Chenfeng in advance.

"He's already ascended to the fourth step and still appears utterly unperturbed. Bai Chenfeng will most likely break the record!"

"Given this momentum, breaking the record is inevitable!"

"Truly worthy of being a Hall Disciple of Yuan He Hall! His mastery of the Great Dao of Wind is genuinely terrifying!"

"Breaking the record is certain. The only question is, which step can Bai Chenfeng ultimately reach?"

"I think he can reach the tenth!"

"The tenth is a bit exaggerated. I feel he has a very good chance of trying for the ninth."

...

Not only did many among the populace believe Bai Chenfeng would definitely break the record...

They even began speculating about his ultimate limit.

"Bai Chenfeng's strength is indeed impressive!"

"At least, his mastery of the Great Dao of Wind is."

Not far from the Holy Mountain.

Li Fan watched Bai Chenfeng on the celestial staircase and couldn't help but nod, a look of appreciation on his face.

Although he didn't understand the Great Dao of Wind very well...

From Bai Chenfeng's current state, he could still gauge just how strong Bai Chenfeng was.

And like the majority of the people outside, he also believed Bai Chenfeng could break the Extreme Realm of Wind's record.

However...

Just as Bai Chenfeng reached the fifth celestial step...

Li Fan's expression abruptly changed.
