Chapter 348: The Power of Origin
Long Er looked worriedly at the staircase in front of him. Shi Yan, Mo Chou and Mo Zixie were climbing the stairs.
The Heavenly Ladder is dangerous. The skeleton of an immortal on the hundredth step is the best proof. Even immortals died on the Heavenly Ladder, not to mention the three people who only had the Golden Core cultivation. Long Er didn't believe that only one person died on the Heavenly Ladder. The corpses of people with low cultivation levels were gone, only the corpses of immortals were preserved. On the higher steps, there was a glow in the clouds. Presumably, that was also the corpse of an immortal, and more powerful than the immortal on the hundredth step.
"If it doesn't work, I must give up and come back!" Long Er thought to himself.
"I'll try it too." Mo Buyong and the people behind him were eager to try and walked towards the ladder. Long'er did not stop them. She only cared about Shi Yan and ignored everyone else. Their life or death had nothing to do with her.
Mo Buyong carefully came to the ladder, looked at the three people above, then took a deep breath and took a step forward. However, as soon as he took a step, blood spurted out and flew backwards. It was not just Mo Buyong, the other people who climbed with him were also like this, they couldn't even step on the first step!
With these lessons learned from the past, people behind us gave up the idea of climbing. This is terrifying.
Suddenly, Long'er saw Shi Yan's figure flash and appeared on the tenth step of the ladder, which means that he had successfully taken ten steps!
The Mohist disciples behind had complicated expressions. Those who were originally afraid of Shi Yan now felt awe. If you are strong, you will naturally be respected by others.
Mo Zixie also moved, but he only stepped on the eighth step. Then, Mo Chou also moved and stepped onto the sixth step.
An hour later, Shi Yan moved six more times, but each time he only moved two steps at a time, until he reached the twenty-second step. Mo Zixie stopped moving forward at the fifteenth step and returned to the ground. Mo Chou reached the fourteenth step and could not go any further. If he continued, he might be in danger, so he returned to the ground.
The two of them looked at Shi Yan who was standing on the 22nd step and smiled bitterly.
"Alas, I am not as good as him." Mo Chou said frankly, "I have only reached the 14th level, while Shi Yan has reached the 22nd level. This gap..."
"You little brat, how can I be embarrassed when you say that? I have practiced for so many years and have only reached the 15th level. You are only a few years old and have already reached the 14th level. What can I say?" Mo Zixie said. Mo Qiu scratched the back of his head, "I am just sighing at the time."
Mo Zixie was speechless, "He is not a human, what is there to compare him to."
Mo Chou said seriously, "That's right, he is not a human, there is really nothing to compare him to. Doesn't that mean that among the younger generation of humans, I can be considered pretty good? Hehe, Master, you are fifteen, and I am fourteen, it seems that this means that I will be able to catch up with you soon."
Mo Zixie ignored this cocky guy.
After the incident with the Mo family, the two were in a much better mood. In the past, Mo Chou was full of hatred and had a stern face all day long, looking at everyone as if they owed him hundreds of crystal stones. But now he is much more cheerful and can even joke with Mo Zixie.
Everyone waited for half an hour, and finally, Shi Yan came back. He had already reached his limit at level 22, and going any higher was beyond his ability, so he happily left.
"How is it? How does it feel to be on level 22?" As soon as Shi Yan came down, Mo Zixie couldn't wait to step forward and ask, wanting to know what the world above was like.
"It's very difficult." Shi Yan thought for a long time and only uttered two words.
Mo Zixie was stunned for a moment, then nodded. Although there were only two words, these two words contained too much meaning, enough to let him understand the above feelings.
"What about you?" Shi Yan turned his head and asked.
"It was as if I had slept for a lifetime, hundreds of years passed by in a hurry, and when I opened my eyes, only an hour had passed." Mo Zixie sighed.
"I have benefited a lot." Mo Chou said with a smile, "This is a very magical place. In it, I saw the origin of the world and the truth of this world. It is really a wonderful world, which makes people yearn for it."
"Yes, I felt these things too." Shi Yan said with a smile, but he felt six lives, one form in each life. He went through all six paths. While experiencing six lives, he realized the true meaning of the six paths. The truth is very simple, just two words, origin!
The Six Paths are the origin of the world.
one.
Shi Yan looked down at his palm, and he felt the boundless power from it. Although his spiritual power could no longer be used, at this moment, he had comprehended the origin of the six paths and mastered another kind of power, the power of the origin!
"Does this count as destruction followed by construction?" Shi Yan thought with a smile.
The crowd continued to move forward and left this place.
Although the ladder brought great benefits to Shi Yan, Mo Chou and Mo Zixie, the dangers it contained were even greater, so after discussing it, everyone decided to leave.
On the way, Shi Yan came to Mo Zixie and asked, "Master, I heard that you and Cai Xishi are very good friends?"
"Hmm? Why are you interested in ropes?" Mo Zixie asked with a smile, stroking his long beard.
"Nothing, I just heard Mo Buyong say that the acrobatics of the jugglers did not use spiritual power." Shi Yan thought for a moment and told him what he found during the battle, "And I found that when I was fighting with him, I did not feel any spiritual power fluctuations. I was very curious, why there was no spiritual power fluctuation in his battle?"
Mo Zixie nodded, "Indeed, Lian Sheng has had a hard time feeling the spiritual energy between heaven and earth since he was a child. When he was 20 years old, his cultivation level was only at the Meridian Transformation Stage. In the Mohist School, he was ridiculed and despised. It was at that time that I made a promise with him that I would never fight him at any time in the future, because we were very good friends. Suddenly one day, he disappeared. I thought he couldn't stand the cold eyes of the Mohist School and left the Mohist School. Who knew that he came back 30 years later, but I found that he had a magical power. This power does not require spiritual power, and its power is stronger than spiritual energy. At that time, he was already a colorful juggler, and he was good at acrobatics. At that time, he suppressed the backbone generation at that time and established his position in the Mohist School."
"Then more than ten years ago, he became the Black Crystal Killer. From beginning to end, I never saw him use spiritual power. Just as you said, I couldn't sense the presence of spiritual power around him."
Shi Yan frowned slightly. He looked at Mo Zixie and asked, "Do you know where he went during the thirty years he was away from the Mo family?"
Mo Zixie shook his head. "Everyone has their own secrets, so I didn't ask."
Shi Yan was silent for a moment. After a long while, he looked at Mo Zixie again and asked, "Master, did the Color Play Master come to the Heavenly Ladder?"
Mo Zixie was stunned, "Why do you say that?"
Shi Yan took a deep breath and told him about his inability to feel spiritual power before he stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder. He then selectively repeated how he comprehended the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation on the Heavenly Ladder.
Mo Zixie listened to Shi Yan's story carefully, frowned and fell into deep thought.
"Now that you mention it, Lian Sheng may have really been here." Mo Zixie said after a while, "I said before that when I was young, I was obsessed with the Heavenly Ladder. I collected information about it for a long time and even planned to run away from home to find it. You know, at that time, Lian Sheng and I were looking for information about the Heavenly Ladder together. Whether it was unofficial historical records or people's oral accounts, we collected all this information bit by bit. In the end, he couldn't stand the cold eyes of the Mo family and left the Mo family. It is very likely that he went out to find the Heavenly Ladder and fulfill his dream."
Mo Zixie looked up at the sky, his eyes a little sore. "You can imagine how many difficulties he went through to find this place. He pursued his dream and finally realized it. And what about me? I gave up my dream and waited to realize it. Although the final result is the same, I was decades late."
"So, he really has been here."
"That's right, and he has comprehended the power of the soul, the same original power as your power of reincarnation." Mo Zixie said, "Mo Chou and I both have a little understanding of it, but it's not as obvious as yours. We only vaguely felt this power, but you have fully comprehended it."
"The juggler and I have one thing in common. I think it is because of this common point that we have learned so much," said Shi Yan.
Mo Zixie's eyes lit up, "You mean, spiritual power?"
Shi Yan smiled and said, "I'm just guessing, just speculating based on our example of someone else."
"But it's worth a try." Mo Zixie nodded, he looked back, and then said: "We'll know when we try again in the future."
"That's good, maybe we can figure out a new school of thought." Shi Yan smiled. He then said, "But, I am quite concerned about another issue."
"What's the problem?" Mo Zixie asked curiously.
Shi Yan calmed himself down and said, "Is this how he went back?"
"If he has been to the ladder, then there are two questions: how did he get here, and how did he go back like this? Compared to the former, I am more concerned about the latter."
Mo Zixie was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, "Yeah, why didn't I think of this question at the beginning? Lian Sheng really did return to the Mo family, so he must know how to get back."
"Not only that, this made me realize that going back is not a luxury, but is really feasible!" Shi Yan said excitedly.
At night, the group discovered a huge teleportation array. According to Long Er, this was the teleportation array leading to the ninth floor.
The structure of the teleportation array was very strange, spiritual power could not be input into it, and it was completely different from the array formation that Shi Yan had learned, so the original idea of using the method of drawing the array to open it also failed.
Finally, Shi Yan, with the mentality of giving it a try, input a trace of the power of reincarnation. Suddenly, a radiance shone, covering the entire teleportation array.
When the light fades, the world before our eyes is completely different.
