After realizing what he has to do, Yuan quickly retrieves the Empyrean Overlord before releasing the Heaven Splitting Sword Strike at the falling temple.

The Heaven Splitting Sword Strike collided with the base of the golden temple in the air, but the temple completely shrugged off the attack as though it was nothing.

Yuan's eyes widened with shock when there wasn't even a single scratch on the temple despite being struck by his most powerful attack.

However, he didn't give up and tried it again, resulting in the same conclusion.

"The temple is indestructible, Master." Tian'er's voice suddenly resounded.

"How am I supposed to protect those people at the bottom if I cannot destroy that temple?!" He cried out loud.

"You must use— sacrifice your body to protect the mortals."

"U-Use my body…?" Yuan swallowed nervously when he realized what Tian'er wanted him to do.

"Why is he just standing there?! He'll get squashed by the temple if he doesn't do anything!" Min Li exclaimed in a worried voice.

"Maybe it's because that is his trial." Feng Yuxiang said.

"A common trial in the Stairway to Heaven is endurance, which normally requires the challenger to endure a powerful pressure for a certain amount of time. In the Young Master's case, that golden temple is the 'pressure'," she explained.

"That golden temple looks really heavy, though… Is it even possible to endure that?" Chu Liuxiang asked.

"The Young Master has no choice but to endure it, or he will fail the trial…"

Once the golden temple arrived on top of Yuan, he decided to use his body to catch it.
