CHAPTER 1063: CHAPTER 1057: 4TH-GRADE SPIRIT VEIN

When Huang Xiaolong arrived at the thirtieth Inheriting Stele, outside the hall, the faces of Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan were unsightly, their eyes flickering with a cold gleam.

Lv Zhuo seemed oblivious to their expressions, laughing heartily to himself.

In the past, during the Three Sects Inner Disciple Trials, the top ten disciples had also comprehended this Inheriting Stele, but the fastest to reach the thirtieth Inheriting Stele took fifty-three days.

For Huang Xiaolong to do it in twenty days was unprecedented.

At this time, Zhao Wuya had only comprehended the thirteenth Inheriting Stele.

"Lv Zhuo, you are celebrating too early," said Ren Changhai, Ancestor of the Primordial Image Sect, unable to tolerate Lv Zhuo’s grating laughter. "Huang Xiaolong may be fast with the first thirty steles, but it doesn’t mean he’ll be fast afterward."

Zhu Huan also said, "Huang Xiaolong may only comprehend up to the thirtieth Inheriting Stele, for all we know."

There were cases where some disciples comprehended the earlier steles quickly but slowed down drastically afterward, some even stopping at the thirtieth stele.

Others, however, started slow but sped up after the thirtieth.

This Inheriting Stele isn’t necessarily harder the further you go, but varies from person to person.

Lv Zhuo laughed, "Shall we place a bet?"

Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan were taken aback.

"Bet on what? How do we bet?" Ren Changhai frowned.

"Let’s bet on Fourth Grade Spiritual Veins. If I lose, I’ll give you two Fourth Grade Spiritual Veins. If you lose, each of you gives me one." Lv Zhuo chuckled, "If Huang Xiaolong comprehends the sixtieth Inheriting Stele within two months, I win. If not, I lose!"

Twenty days have passed, meaning if Huang Xiaolong cannot comprehend the sixtieth Inheriting Stele in another forty days, Lv Zhuo will lose.

Two months to comprehend sixty steles is almost impossible.

However, considering Huang Xiaolong’s previous performance, Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan hesitated.

Understand that Fourth Grade Spiritual Veins are not like Third Grade, usually, a hundred Third Grades can’t exchange for one Fourth Grade.

Recently, the three found a cave in the Outer Realm Demon Battlefield left by an Ancient powerful being.

According to the Three Sects Inner Disciple Trial results, Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan each obtained one Fourth Grade Spiritual Vein, which they treasured immensely.

"What? Afraid?" Lv Zhuo sneered as he saw them hesitate.

"Fine, Lv Zhuo, we’ll bet with you. I don’t believe Huang Xiaolong can comprehend up to the sixtieth Inheriting Stele in two months!" Ren Changhai’s face turned grim, gritting his teeth.

Zhu Huan’s gaze was equally intense.

Lv Zhuo chuckled but said nothing, turning to watch the first room closely, focusing on its activity.

Actually, Lv Zhuo was unsure if Huang Xiaolong could indeed comprehend the sixtieth Inheriting Stele within two months.

So, after making the bet, Lv Zhuo felt some regret and was extremely anxious.

It’s two Fourth Grade Spiritual Veins!

If he lost, it would be as good as costing him his life!

Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan were likewise extremely tense, keeping an eye on Huang Xiaolong’s room.

A day passed with no movement.

At this moment, the iron door of Room Two flickered with light, signifying Zhao Wuya had comprehended the thirteenth Inheriting Stele and started the fourteenth.

Another day passed with Room One still silent.

Two days, and Huang Xiaolong still couldn’t comprehend the thirtieth Inheriting Stele!

Seeing this, Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan’s smiles grew brighter.

"Lv Zhuo, I’ve told you you’re celebrating too early," Ren Changhai laughed loudly, "Now it’s been two days, and Huang Xiaolong still can’t grasp the thirtieth Inheriting Stele. At this rate, forget sixty steles, he won’t even finish forty in two months!"

"Heh, heh, you should have those two Fourth Grade Spiritual Veins on you, right?" Zhu Huan teased, "Don’t claim you didn’t bring them when the time comes."

Lv Zhuo didn’t speak, clenching his fists as he watched the still-silent Room One.

Three days passed with Room One still inactive.

Lv Zhuo couldn’t help but feel full of regret and disappointment.

Three days had passed, and Huang Xiaolong still couldn’t comprehend the thirtieth Inheriting Stele!

As Ren Changhai said, Huang Xiaolong feared not to even be able to comprehend the fortieth Inheriting Stele within two months.

As Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan saw Room One silent on the third day, their laughter grew louder, chatting happily.

Then, Zhao Wuya also comprehended the fourteenth Inheriting Stele, starting on the fifteenth.

On the fourth day, finally, the long-silent Room One began flowing with light.

Lv Zhuo just shook his head.

Taking four days to comprehend the thirtieth Inheriting Stele, at this rate, Huang Xiaolong at most can reach the fortieth Inheriting Stele in two months.

Ren Changhai observed and said with a smile, "Don’t be disheartened, Lv Zhuo. Maybe Huang Xiaolong will surprise us by comprehending one stele a day!"

"Haha, indeed, maybe half a day per stele next," Zhu Huan echoed with laughter.

Their sarcasm was clear.

Half a day passed.

Suddenly, Room One glowed with light again.

Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan were stunned.

This?!

Another half-day later, Room One’s light flowed again.

Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Lv Zhuo’s eyes also widened, filled with incredulity.

Then, almost every half-day, Room One glowed once.

In less than ten days, Huang Xiaolong reached the fiftieth Inheriting Stele with terrifying speed.

Lv Zhuo’s smile gradually brightened.

Ren Changhai’s face was grim, "Lv Zhuo, don’t celebrate too early. We’re only at the fiftieth Inheriting Stele, and with twenty-five days left, I don’t believe Huang Xiaolong can comprehend ten more in twenty-five days!"

Ren Changhai’s words seemed to come true, as a day later Room One went silent again.

Two days later, just when Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan thought Huang Xiaolong would be stuck for four days like before, Room One’s light flowed again.

Afterwards, Huang Xiaolong comprehended each subsequent Inheriting Stele every two days or slightly over two days.

On the fifty-ninth day, one day short of two months, Huang Xiaolong began comprehending the sixty-first Inheriting Stele.

Seeing the flowing light on Room One’s iron door, Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan’s eyes filled with unwillingness, fury, hatred, and regret.

"Gentlemen, please take out the Fourth Grade Spiritual Veins," Lv Zhuo said with a cheerful smile, "Don’t tell me you didn’t bring them."

Ren Changhai and Zhu Huan’s faces twitched.

Meanwhile, in the room, Huang Xiaolong sat cross-legged in front of the sixty-first Inheriting Stele, his body brimming with radiance, and behind him appeared the phantom of Black and Blue Dragons.
