Lin Xuan did not linger for long, and followed the last group of people up the Heavenly Ladder.
boom……
With one step, the world shifted and the stone steps vanished in an instant, replaced by an endless starry sky. An astonishing pressure swept towards Lin Xuan.
At the same time, this vast starry sky contains endless mysteries. Lin Xuan could clearly feel that these profound Daoist principles were of great help in comprehending the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven. If he had been on this Heavenly Ladder before, he wouldn't even need to rely on the system to eventually comprehend the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven.
Unfortunately, he can't use it now.
Because he has already taken complete control of the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven.
"Hmph... Crimson Moon Burns the Sky..."
Lin Xuan snorted coldly and directly activated a trace of the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven Great Divine Power. Endless flames burned, and the vast void before him shattered in an instant. Lin Xuan regained his clarity and returned to the first step of the Heavenly Ladder.
Without the slightest hesitation, he took a step forward and immediately headed towards the second step of the Heavenly Ladder.
As expected, it was the same formula as the first tier of the Heavenly Ladder, the same starry sky, but the pressure was noticeably stronger, and the starry world had become more solid. Everything was as Lin Xuan had predicted. His expression remained calm, and with another burst of flame, he shattered the starry world.
And so, Lin Xuan advanced with unstoppable momentum, step by step ascending the Heavenly Ladder.
He walked very steadily, going uphill without stopping at all.
At this moment, the person who had climbed the highest among the others had only just stepped onto the hundredth step. This person was the young sword immortal who had been the first to master the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven technique, and Lin Xuan had been paying attention to him.
At first, the person walked very fast, but the further he went, the slower he became.
When he stepped onto the hundredth step, his whole body was trembling. Lin Xuan knew that this was his limit. It wasn't that his strength was limited, but rather that his understanding of the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven was only at the beginning, and the hundredth step was his limit.
If one wants to go further, this person must, like everyone else, sit cross-legged and comprehend the Crimson Moon Burning Heaven's Path.
at this time!
On the hundredth step of the Heavenly Ladder, the young sword immortal exhaled a long breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sat cross-legged.
He muttered to himself, "The hundredth step... it seems this is my limit. I'm still far from the three thousandth step, but it doesn't matter. I've already surpassed everyone else. Moreover, I clearly have a great affinity for this divine ability, and the difficulty of comprehending it is much lower than for others. The inheritance of the Crimson Moon Immortal Lord is destined to be mine..."
As he spoke, a sharp light suddenly flashed in the young sword immortal's eyes. He looked up at the towering Heavenly Ladder, then looked down at the sky below.
He wanted to see how big the gap was between him and others.
However, as soon as he looked down, he froze, his smile instantly turning into one of shock and disbelief.
"How is this possible..."
He roared in utter shock, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets, only to see a figure walking up the stairs step by step, now reaching the ninety-first step.
Moreover, judging from the speed of this person, there was no intention of stopping at all; he continued to walk upwards.
Most importantly, he noticed that this person walked very steadily with each step, without pausing at all. This showed that the pressure of the Heavenly Ladder had no effect on him, just as it had when he first stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder.
"How is this possible? This is the ninetieth step or so! How can he walk so steadily?"
The young swordsman muttered in disbelief, "How could this be? Could it be that his understanding of that scripture is even higher than mine? How could this be..."
At this moment, the young sword immortal was completely unsettled, his eyes flashing with complex emotions.
At that moment, Lin Xuan had already walked step by step and finally stepped onto the ninety-ninth step of the Heavenly Ladder. His expression remained calm and composed, without the slightest hesitation.
Damn it!
Upon seeing this, the young swordsman's face gradually contorted, and a boundless killing intent welled up in his heart.
“We absolutely cannot let this kid continue to rise, otherwise the inheritance of the Crimson Moon Immortal Lord will be completely out of my reach. We must stop him.”
Suddenly, such a thought came to mind.
His pupils contracted sharply, and he suddenly stood up, taking a step down from the hundredth step of the Heavenly Ladder and landing on the ninety-ninth step, blocking Lin Xuan's path.
"If I were you, I'd go back right now..."
The young sword immortal looked coldly at Lin Xuan and said in a cold voice, "I might as well tell you that I am Li Mingsheng, a true disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and I am determined to obtain the inheritance of the Crimson Moon Immortal Lord."
"so what?"
Lin Xuan sneered, looking at the young sword immortal blocking his way, and said dismissively, "What do you want? This inheritance is ownerless. Whoever gets it depends on their own ability."
"What, does your Heavenly Sword Sect think you can control everything?"
Lin Xuan's disdainful sneer immediately made the young sword immortal Li Mingsheng's expression even more gloomy. He thought that by bringing up his identity and background, he would be able to intimidate Lin Xuan, but he did not expect Lin Xuan to be so arrogant and not take the Heavenly Sword Sect seriously at all.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. The legacy of the Crimson Moon Immortal Lord is so powerful that it could drive countless people crazy.
In fact, if the Crimson Moon Cave Heaven hadn't appeared so quickly that many people hadn't even received the news, or had received the news but couldn't make it in time, there wouldn't have been so few people coming to the Crimson Moon Cave Heaven.
And the strongest among them could not possibly be merely at the peak of the Earth Immortal realm.
Li Mingsheng understood this point very well, which is why he felt very fortunate. He was perfectly suited to the supernatural powers in the scripture, and his own strength was among the top tier of those who entered the Crimson Moon Cave.
In his view, he was destined to inherit the legacy of the Crimson Moon Immortal Lord and become the new master of the Crimson Moon Grotto.
But all of this will be shattered after Lin Xuan appears.
Because Lin Xuan was clearly more attuned to the supernatural powers in the scripture and had comprehended them more deeply, if he had only entered the realm of enlightenment, Lin Xuan would likely have already achieved minor mastery. His advantage was immediately halved, leaving only a suppression of strength.
As for Lin Xuan, he would not give up easily when he encountered such an opportunity. Even if he brought up his identity and background, he would definitely not give up.
He would have done the same.
Many thoughts flashed through Li Mingsheng's mind, and he figured out a lot of things. He thought he had Lin Xuan's mind under control. Then he smiled coldly and said, "Boy, I know you are not willing to accept this. After all, the opportunity is right in front of you."
However, opportunities require not only luck but also strength.
Your affinity for that divine power is indeed superior to mine. If there are no obstacles, perhaps the inheritance of the Crimson Blood Immortal Lord will truly be yours.
Unfortunately, you lack the ability.
I know you killed a Celestial Immortal from the Ice Spirit Palace before, but I'm not that trash; I'm only at the early stage of Celestial Immortal.
I am a peak Earth Immortal.
I'll give you one more chance. Turn around and leave now, and I might spare your life. Otherwise…
"Or what will you do!"
Lin Xuan sneered, and before Li Mingsheng could finish speaking, he raised his hand and waved it, saying coldly, "I'll give you a chance too. Get out of here now, and I'll spare your life."
