Ten thousand top grade Spiritual Stones was equivalent to the annual income of the Li Clan. Fang Chen had just opened his mouth and asked for so many Spiritual Stones. This shocked the crowd.
"Ten thousand top grade Spirit Stones? Are you sure?"
Yang Xiujian's eyes flickered as he asked coldly.
"Yes, ten thousand top grade Spirit Stones. Do you dare to bet?" Fang Chen asked in a deep voice.
Yang Xiujian was mocking him for not being able to reach the ninth pillar. Since that was the case, he would bet on it.
To Fang Chen, ten thousand supreme-grade spirit stones were nothing at all.
That was because apart from the 1,056,000 he had exchanged earlier, he still had 9.7 million.
Close to 10 million top grade Spirit Stones was an amount that even the three big families could not match.
Yang Xiujian narrowed his eyes, thinking quickly. He did not know if Fang Chen was really confident in reaching the ninth pillar, or if he was just trying to scare him.
However, no matter what, he was in a difficult position, unless he agreed to Fang Chen's offer.
Looking at the burning gazes of the surrounding warriors, Yang Xiujian said, "Okay, I agree."
Yang Xiujian agreed to Fang Chen's bet. Everyone exclaimed, but Fang Chen's eyes flashed with a trace of a smile.
"I hope you don't go back on your word." Fang Chen sneered and continued to study the chain formation.
Time passed by slowly. Fang Chen continued to study the chain formation on the chain.
One minute, three minutes, fifteen minutes, one hour …
Finally, after two hours, all the warriors shook their heads. It seemed that Fang Chen was going to lose. He had not even passed two hours. Even if he had more time, there was nothing he could do.
At this time, Yang Xiujian's eyes also revealed a trace of a smile. Thinking that Fang Chen was going to lose and lose ten thousand top grade Spirit Stones, he was very excited.
Tomorrow was the auction. With these ten thousand top grade Spirit Stones, he could buy the treasures he needed.
"Fang Chen, you have lost."
Yang Xiujian exuded a terrifying aura as he spoke coldly.
"It's not over yet," Li Xiaoke retorted.
Lu Lianxue's beautiful eyes flickered as she stared at Fang Chen. After interacting with Fang Chen for a while, Lu Lianxue realized that Fang Chen wasn't a reckless person.
Since he dared to make such a big bet, it meant that he was confident.
However, two hours had already passed, and he was not moving at all. Could it be that he was really trapped on the iron chain?
Lu Lianxue knew how powerful the ninth pillar was. Even she could not pass through it.
Thinking of this, a complicated expression appeared in Lu Lianxue's eyes. Then, she slightly shook her head.
Just as everyone thought that Fang Chen was going to lose the bet, a strong aura suddenly emerged from the chains.
The next moment, a smile of excitement appeared on Fang Chen's face.
"I see."
At this moment, Fang Chen was extremely excited.
After two hours of research, Fang Chen used the knowledge in the Array Formation Basics Scroll and finally figured out the mystery of this array formation.
"It's really exquisite." Fang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
The almighty who had set up this array formation was too powerful. He was actually able to set up such an exquisite array formation.
Fang Chen sighed slightly. Then, with a flick of his wrist, eight streams of True Qi appeared on his palm. Then, Fang Chen's palm directly reached out and appeared at the nodes of the array formation.
Then, Fang Chen's other hand began to break the array formation on the iron chain.
Crack!
Without the obstruction of the copper chain array, breaking the other array formation was very easy.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Chen had broken the array formation and restored the copper chain array. At this moment, under everyone's gaze, Fang Chen easily walked up to the ninth pillar.
Yang Xiujian, who had been full of smiles and thought that he had already won, suddenly changed his expression and became completely gloomy.
"How is this possible?"
Yang Xiujian's heart was filled with shock.
Fang Chen had stepped onto the ninth pillar. Didn't this mean that he had lost the bet?
"The ninth pillar!"
Yang Xiujian's eyes were scarlet as he stared at Fang Chen on the ninth pillar. His heart was filled with murderous intent.
When he was in the Condensing Reality Realm, with Yang Xiujian's strength, he had only stepped onto the seventh pillar. He had not expected Fang Chen to actually step onto the ninth pillar.
"This kid's potential is too great." Yang Xiujian thought to himself.
The entire square was in an uproar.
Countless cultivators looked at Fang Chen, who was on the ninth pillar, in shock.
"Oh my god, Fang Chen really stepped onto the ninth pillar."
"Fang Chen has created a record in the history of Kaiyang City. His potential is too monstrous."
"He's really a peerless demon. Too terrifying."
Countless voices of praise spread throughout the square.
Li Xiaoke's pretty face was full of smiles.
Lu Lianxue's face had a complicated expression.
Standing on the ninth pillar, Fang Chen looked down at Yang Xiujian and said, "You've lost."
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Yang Xiujian's face kept changing. At this moment, he felt a great sense of humiliation.
"Yang Xiujian, you have to accept your loss. Hand over ten thousand supreme grade spirit stones." Li Xiaoke said.
Yang Xiujian tried his best to suppress the anger in his body. He then raised his head to look at Fang Chen on the ninth pillar and said, "Fang Chen, I really did not expect that you would be able to step onto the ninth pillar. Naturally, I will fulfill my promise.
However, I don't have enough spirit stones right now. How about I give you an IOU? "
Hearing Yang Xiujian's words, Fang Chen's first reaction was that he was too shameless.
An IOU? Wasn't this cheating?
"An IOU?" Fang Chen sneered.
"Fang Chen, I, Yang Xiujian, don't worry about my reputation. I'll give you an IOU. You can come to the Yang Clan's residence and ask for ten thousand supreme grade spirit stones at any time." Yang Xiujian said indifferently.
"Yang Xiujian, you're too despicable," Li Xiaoke said angrily.
Yang Xiujian ignored Li Xiaoke and looked at Fang Chen, as if waiting for Fang Chen's reply.
Fang Chen stared at Yang Xiujian. After a long time, he said, "Okay, an IOU."
Hearing that, Yang Xiujian chuckled. He waved his hand and a white piece of paper appeared in front of him. Then, using his finger as a pen, he wrote a line of words and signed his name at the end.
Then, he passed this piece of paper to Fang Chen.
After receiving the paper, the latter sneered and did not say anything else.
It was beyond everyone's expectations that such a huge gamble would end in such a way.
Everyone was speechless at Yang Xiujian's shamelessness. Wasn't it too much? Writing an IOU was clearly shameless.
The Yang Clan hated Fang Chen so much. If he went to the Yang Clan's residence to ask for the spirit stones, he might be killed by the Yang Clan's Patriarch.
However, Fang Chen did not seem to want to make a big deal out of it, so he ended it so hastily.
Lu Lianxue looked at Fang Chen thoughtfully. At this moment, the latter's figure moved again.
Fang Chen stepped onto the chain leading to the tenth bronze pillar. Ever since the bronze chain formation was established, no one in the younger generation of Kaiyang City had been able to step onto the tenth bronze pillar.
"Could it be that Fang Chen wants to step onto the tenth bronze pillar?" a warrior exclaimed.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes focused on Fang Chen.
"If he can really step onto the tenth bronze pillar, he will definitely be recorded in Kaiyang City's history."
"What a terrifying guy. Even if he fails, he will be remembered by everyone."
"Such a monstrous genius. I really don't know how he cultivated."
Amidst the crowd's discussion, Fang Chen gently stepped onto the metal chain.
However, this chain exceeded Fang Chen's expectations.
He had originally thought that it would be very difficult to pass through this chain, but Fang Chen was wrong.
When he stepped on the iron chain, he suddenly appeared on the tenth copper pillar.
Crash!
The entire bronze chain formation exploded with a dazzling light. Countless warriors were shocked.
"He really succeeded.
He really stepped onto the tenth bronze pillar. "
"Am I dreaming? How can he step onto the tenth bronze pillar?"
"Monstrous. He is definitely monstrous. If he is given some time, the Spiritual Vortex Realm will be nothing. Even the True Martial Realm will not be a problem."
"This is too terrifying. I can't believe I'm able to see someone step onto the tenth bronze pillar in my lifetime."
When Fang Chen stepped onto the tenth bronze pillar, countless warriors in Kaiyang City were shocked. Even Yang Xiujian, Lu Lianxue, and the others were completely shocked.
The tenth bronze pillar. Someone had actually stepped onto the tenth bronze pillar.
Ever since the bronze chain formation was created, no one had been able to step onto the tenth bronze pillar. Now, someone had actually succeeded.
It was too shocking.
At this moment, Fang Chen stood on the tenth bronze pillar. A hazy aura appeared around him. The bronze chain formation constantly shrunk until it finally enveloped Fang Chen's body.
When the outside world looked at the tenth bronze pillar, they could only see a layer of fog. They could not see anything else.
Within the bronze chain formation, Fang Chen was extremely surprised.
At this moment, a thought appeared.
"Young man, you are quite talented to be able to pass the bronze chain formation's test.
If you can break my bronze chain formation within half a month, you can become my disciple. "
When he heard this voice, Fang Chen instantly understood.
It turned out that this so-called bronze chain formation was only used by a certain almighty to test his disciple.
After this voice finished speaking, it completely disappeared. Fang Chen, who was within the bronze chain formation, could clearly feel that the bronze chain formation seemed to have changed.
It had changed so much that he could not recognize it.
"Is this still the bronze chain formation?" Fang Chen thought to himself.
In the next moment, Fang Chen discovered that he was trapped within the bronze chain formation. He was unable to break free.
"This bronze chain formation is too complicated. It will be extremely difficult to break it," Fang Chen thought to himself.
However, there was no other way. He could only search for a way to break it.
A dazzling light erupted from the tenth bronze pillar. However, Fang Chen did not appear.
After a long while, Yang Xiujian's eyes flickered. "He is trapped within the tenth bronze pillar."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding martialists were all astonished.
At this moment, somewhere in the Five Elements State, two old men were playing chess.
Suddenly, the expression of one of the old men changed. "Let's stop here for today."
"Every time you are about to lose, we stop here." Clearly, the old man on the other side was a little unhappy.
The old man who had spoken earlier said, "Someone stepped onto the tenth bronze pillar of the bronze chain formation."
