Chapter 1828: Stone Steps to Heaven
After Gaia's consciousness disappeared, the giant city continued to operate as usual, but it seemed like something was missing.
Zhou Wen took the demon baby to the palace and beheaded the giants in the remaining two palaces, leaving one of the palaces to the dark doctor.
The palace has a very average effect on top-level companion pets. For a doomsday-level companion pet like the prisoner, the energy absorbed in the palace is simply not enough to support its continued growth.
The disaster level does have some effect and can break through the limit of 400 points, but it requires a long time to wait.
The effect of a low-level companion pet is very obvious. The reason why Zhou Wen chose the Dark Doctor is mainly because the companion state of this companion pet is soul, which is very convenient to use and its skills are relatively rare and useful.
Zhou Wen occupied the last palace himself, but he felt that the effect was very weak and it was impossible for him to advance to the end of the world, so he had to choose another companion pet to replace him, and he left the giant city.
In order to prevent other people from coming to the giant city, Ansheng stayed outside the giant city to guard it. In case someone discovered the secret of the giant city and wanted to enter it to replace the companion pets that were receiving energy, he could notify Zhou Wen in time.
The trip to the giant city yielded a rich collection of treasures, and the improvement of the companion pet was secondary. The main thing was for Zhou Wen to figure out the ins and outs of everything.
It is now basically certain that Lord Di is the Immortal Emperor, and Nuwa does not actually exist, or rather, Nuwa is the earth itself, and An Jing's mother is not Nuwa.
As to where the woman came from, it is difficult to determine.
Judging from the information we have obtained so far, the woman is not a creature from Earth or even from another dimension, and is likely to be from another world.
The "Mixian Jing" and the mobile phone were both things brought by the woman, and perhaps they did not belong to this world at all.
As for where the woman came from, perhaps only she herself knows, or those who have been on the ship may know some information.
"Wang Mingyuan and the principal should have been on the crashed ship, or seen the wreckage of the ship. What did they get there?" Zhou Wen really wanted to find them and ask them, but unfortunately the principal was nowhere to be found, and Wang Mingyuan probably wouldn't tell him anything.
"Let's find a way to advance to the end of the world first. When the earth is truly unleashed, perhaps everything will have an answer." Zhou Wen continued to analyze the dimensional field information brought back by Li Xuan, trying to find a place suitable for him to advance to the end of the world.
Although many dimensional areas are suspected to have apocalyptic levels, after analysis, it seems unlikely.
Just when Zhou Wen was feeling distressed, the Rubik's Cube opened again.
The same picture appeared on Rubik's Cube screens all over the world, and the people who saw it were a little confused.
That is a road, a road leading to heaven.
The stone steps were suspended in the air, without any support, spiraling up to the sky, with no end in sight and nothing else.
Just when everyone was confused, a figure appeared in the picture. He had white hair and white clothes. He was clearly a human, but he had crystal dragon horns on his head.
Who else could that figure be but Wang Mingyuan? He was seen walking up the stone steps towards the sky, step by step, like an immortal in a fairy palace.
"Old Zhou, your teacher is causing trouble again." Li Xuan teased.
Zhou Wen was not in the mood to joke with him. He stared at Wang Mingyuan's figure and thought.
The place in the picture is undoubtedly not on Earth, but should be in another dimension, but we don’t know where in this dimension it is.
Many people were watching Wang Mingyuan's breakthrough, but contrary to everyone's expectations, Wang Mingyuan just walked up step by step without encountering any trouble at all, and no alien creatures appeared to attack him.
Wang Mingyuan walked around and around without any hurry. He didn't know how long he had walked before he finally reached the end of the stone steps leading to heaven.
At the end was just a platform suspended in the air, with no buildings and no living creatures.
Wang Mingyuan stood at the end, just standing there without moving, but the Rubik's Cube screen automatically turned to the ranking screen.
On the entire ranking list, only Wang Mingyuan's name occupies the top position.
"Why is this Rubik's Cube challenge so easy? All I have to do is reach the end of the stone steps to complete the challenge?"
"Is there anything strange here?"
"This is too easy. Is this a competition to see who can walk faster?"
The humans were talking about it, and many of them were tempted. It seemed that such a simple trial was something that anyone could complete. As long as they had enough physical strength, walking up the stairs would not be a problem at all.
Although many people suspected that there must be something strange on the stone steps and it would not be easy to climb up, it still couldn't stop some people from being tempted to try.
The Rubik's Cube lit up again, and a human stood on the stone steps.
Everyone stared at the human, trying to see if there was anything strange about the stone steps, but the man stood on the first stone step, motionless, as if petrified.
Just as everyone was puzzled, the stone steps he was standing on fell down, and the man stood upright on the steps, falling down with the steps until he completely disappeared.
After a while, the stone steps rose again, but the man disappeared. The picture on the Rubik's Cube changed and the challenge ended.
"There's something strange indeed, but what's going on? Is that person under a spell of immobilization?"
"This is too weird. After all, he was a fear-level human. How could it end without moving a muscle?" People who knew him were extremely horrified.
No one knows what is going on, so no one dares to challenge it anymore.
Zhou Wen could see clearly that there must be a forbidden power on the stone steps, and not everyone could walk up there.
Zhou Wen wanted to give it a try, not because he wanted to compete with Wang Mingyuan, but because there was a small hand pattern on the stone steps, right on the side of the first stone step.
Zhou Wen tried to use his mobile phone to take a picture of the little hand pattern, but unfortunately, the Rubik's Cube broadcast image could not be downloaded to the mobile phone.
Just when Zhou Wen was considering whether to go there himself, the Rubik's Cube lit up again, but this time the challenge was not to a human, but a creature from another dimension.
No one knew what kind of creature it was. Its entire body was wrapped in a wide gray robe, even its head and face were covered, leaving only a pair of white empty eyes, like a blind person without pupils.
He stood on the stone steps, and was not frozen like the humans who had passed the level before him. He walked up the steps step by step.
But his steps seemed extremely heavy, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back. He walked with great difficulty, not as easily as Wang Mingyuan.
"Could this thing have the same properties as the gravity ladder?" Li Xuan said after looking at it for a while.
"It's not that simple. The reason why he walks so hard is not because of gravity." Zhou Wen said, staring at the screen.
