At that moment, the entire White Jade Staircase suddenly began to shake violently, trembling as though an earth dragon deep beneath the ground had stirred its body.
An unparalleled force seemed to surge in from all directions, fiercely pressing down on Wang Yu.
In an instant, Wang Yu's spine was forcibly bent beneath that crushing pressure.
Wang Yu's expression turned extremely ugly, his features seeming to twist continuously under the pressure coming from all around him.
Lin Fan's expression grew slightly solemn.
Even a peak Fourth-Stage expert like Wang Yu had ended up like this just after stepping onto the first stair. Wasn't this inner sect disciple trial a little too difficult?
Even a supreme expert like Han Jiuyue cast a surprised glance at the ordinary White Jade Staircase.
Although Han Jiuyue had sensed the White Jade Staircase's extraordinary nature through her Divine Soul Power, she had never expected such an ordinary-looking White Jade Staircase to be so formidable.
Han Jiuyue narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at the White Jade Staircase for a long while before finally withdrawing her gaze.
"Looks like no one below an Immortal Venerable can pass such a trial!"
As expected of a supreme expert, Han Jiuyue effortlessly saw through the White Jade Staircase's limits.
Yet Han Jiuyue could not help the twitch at the corner of her mouth.
One had to know that an Immortal Venerable was an existence above the Seventh Stage of Immortality.
Anyone capable of becoming such an expert would be among the very best in any faction, even serving as a pillar holding it up.
Yet within the Human Emperor Sect, they could only become a mere inner sect disciple.
Wasn't that a little too harsh?
Just as Han Jiuyue's thoughts stirred slightly, Wang Yu's body was sent flying directly
