Upon hearing this, Ji Wuyue suddenly fell silent. She looked at Lu Chen quietly, but she couldn't see through his heart at that moment.
But she had an urge to say yes.
Deep down, she didn't believe Lu Chen had this ability. The Heavenly Ladder had been passed down for countless years, and she didn't know who created it.
However, over the years, no one has been able to successfully climb to the top.
Can Lu Chen do it?
Ji Wuyue suddenly felt insecure. She thought of all the miracles Lu Chen had created before, and a thought suddenly came to her mind.
Perhaps, he really can do it.
"Do you really like me that much?" Ji Wuyue asked softly.
Upon seeing her expression, Lu Chen knew that she was beginning to waver, and at this point, he couldn't continue to act shamelessly.
"I'm sorry, senior sister, I shouldn't have made this bet with you. Win or lose, my heart for you will never change!"
After saying this, Lu Chen flew away without any hesitation.
Before long, Lu Chen arrived at the bottom of the Heavenly Ladder of Xuanwu Academy.
"Let's begin."
Lu Chen leaped directly to the hundredth floor, a feat that was effortless for him with his current strength.
At that very moment, a figure gracefully arrived, silently watching everything unfold below.
Ji Wuyue stared at Lu Chen, her mind replaying his words, and fell into deep thought.
Then, he watched as Lu Chen climbed the Heavenly Ladder at an extremely fast speed, almost without stopping, and in one breath, he had already reached the three hundredth floor.
"So fast?"
Ji Wuyue couldn't help but feel a little expectant. It was said that the Heavenly Ladder had 999 floors, and as long as one could reach the top floor, one could reach the heavens.
Of course, nobody knows what's on it.
Ji Wuyue himself had tried it before, but after reaching the 800th floor, he could not advance any further, which showed that his cultivation was still insufficient.
This is the highest level that human powerhouses can reach.
But today, following his feeling in May, Lu Chen will break his own record.
As expected, in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Lu Chen had already reached the 600th floor, and he seemed to be doing it very easily. Each step was easy for Lu Chen to cross.
At this moment, Lu Chen seemed to feel no strain at all.
"So easy?"
Lu Chen was secretly surprised. It seemed that his strength had improved too quickly. Now, the hundreds of steps below the Heavenly Ladder were no challenge at all.
This ladder to heaven tests one's understanding of space. Without reaching this level, one cannot climb it. It is something that cannot be achieved through desperate effort; only enlightenment can help.
"continue."
Without pausing, Lu Chen rushed to the 800th floor in one go.
At that moment, he had no idea that Ji Wuyue was watching him expectantly from afar in the sky.
"As expected, I've broken through to the 800th floor. It seems I'm about to break my record."
Ji Wuyue felt a little wistful, but she was still very gratified that Lu Chen had surpassed her.
"He must be the genius who can surpass the Star Realm level and lead our human race to a further step in the path of cultivation."
Ji Wuyue couldn't help but feel excited and her blood was boiling.
As expected, Lu Chen only paused for a moment before continuing to climb upwards.
After reaching the 800th floor, Lu Chen felt the pressure from the Heavenly Ladder increasing, and his speed gradually slowed down.
However, it was only a little slower than before, and it still didn't stay for very long.
"The higher you go, the deeper you must understand the application of space."
However, Lu Chen discovered that as he climbed higher and higher, his soul realm was rapidly improving, and now he had reached a brand new realm.
He could still feel that the soul in his mind had become tangible, like a golden elixir radiating light.
"I see."
Gradually, Lu Chen felt some strain, and the pressure from the surrounding space became increasingly intense, so he couldn't help but slow down.
At this moment, he had already reached the nine hundredth floor.
The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes.
Lu Chen stopped.
Ji Wuyue watched Lu Chen from afar, feeling even more nervous than him.
"He's already nine hundred percent there, can he really succeed?"
Lu Chen sat cross-legged on the 900th step, closed his eyes, and used all the rewards in his system space.
Lu Chen's strength improved further, and he used all the original liquids he had obtained before, including the rewards for improving his soul realm, leaving none behind.
Finally, Lu Chen felt that his soul had become increasingly solid, radiating a faint golden light, and had reached an unprecedented level.
At this moment, Lu Chen felt that the world around him was so clear and distinct. He could see clearly at a glance the omnipresent spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air.
He could even feel the endless power of the starry sky emanating from the surroundings.
This feeling is very different from before.
"So, the so-called understanding of space is actually an elevation of the soul's realm."
Lu Chen suddenly realized the truth.
Previously, the Zhenwu Academy had a saying that the deeper one's understanding of space, the easier and smoother one's ascent of the Heavenly Ladder would be.
But they simply didn't understand why.
The root cause is that the soul realm is not strong enough. When the soul realm is strong enough, the perception of space will naturally become more and more profound, and climbing this ladder to heaven will naturally be easier.
