The bluestone square was shaking like a landslide.
With four white jade pillars as the center, the ground made of bluestone collapsed one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the shattered area began to spread outwards. Spiritual energy raged across the entire square platform, turning all the bluestone into powder.
The teams that gathered in the square retreated one after another, all the way to the edge of the square.
Hundreds of people stood cautiously on the bluestone steps at the edge of the square, their faces ashen and trembling.
"Oh my god, the square is broken, how can we enter the Spirit Palace?"
"Why not retreat and not enter the Spirit Palace? Once the time comes, we can leave the secret realm."
The people in those teams were grumbling, and some even wanted to retreat.
Several of them broke away from their respective teams and ran back and forth.
The bluestone steps were narrow, only enough for two people to stand on, and as the bluestone in the square was broken, everyone had to stand on the bluestone steps.
The entire bluestone staircase seemed extremely crowded, with each team huddled together, carefully guarding against the small movements of others.
Those who had left the team had only run a few steps when they were blocked by people from other teams.
One party wanted to leave, while the other refused to give in, and soon a dispute arose.
During the dispute, someone was pushed down and the scene became chaotic for a while.
Those who successfully broke through the obstruction ran straight towards the direction they came from to enter the square without looking back.
The man's figure flashed and disappeared.
"ah……"
The man's shrill screams echoed in the void for a long time.
A person who rushed towards Jiang Zhao and the others was stunned when he saw this scene.
"Are you still able to make it?"
Jiang Zhao looked at the newcomers with a smile, his eyes full of provocation. If you dare to rush towards them, believe it or not, I will throw you down.
The man waved his hands and retreated in a hurry. He wanted to return to the team again, but was expelled by other companions in the team.
Gu Chen looked at the man who retreated, then at the man who fell, and sighed, "He's walking on his own path to death."
Jiang Zhao smiled and said, "I'm going to die anyway. I have to finish the path I've chosen."
Fang Hezhou lowered his head and looked at the void below the bluestone steps, which was filled with layers of clouds and mist, and his expression changed slightly.
"Are you going to lock us up here for a duel? Only the winner will be eligible to enter the Spirit Palace?"
The young apprentices looked down at the bluestone steps beneath their feet and shuddered.
Jiang Zhao couldn't guess either, so he said, "It's hard to say. Let's wait and see what happens."
When all the bluestones were blown into powder, except for the four white jade pillars floating in the void, the entire square was filled with chaotic spiritual energy.
"Boom boom"
The four white jade pillars turned, and the four sacred beasts on the pillars all faced the direction of the Linggong Palace.
A golden light suddenly shot out from the Linggong Palace in the clouds.
The golden light fell on the four white jade pillars in turn, and the four sacred beasts on the white jade pillars seemed to be covered with a layer of golden armor.
The four sacred beasts, covered in golden light, are lifelike, as if they were living creatures and could transform into their true forms at any time.
"If we can move this white jade pillar to the sect, this trip will be worth it."
Some people looked at the white jade pillar with a bit more greed in their eyes.
The golden light receded, but the four sacred beasts on the white jade pillars opened their mouths wide and spewed out four-colored spiritual power.
The four colors of spiritual power, red, green, gold and black, quickly spread out, forming blocks of spiritual power bricks that completely filled the hollow square.
Everyone: ???
What the hell? I blew up the previous bluestone bricks and replaced them with spiritual bricks.
The four-colored spiritual bricks spiraled upward along the four white jade pillars, turning into four huge ladders leading directly to the Linggong Palace above.
Jiang Zhao's gaze fell on the four-colored spiritual bricks and he narrowed his eyes slightly. Those spiritual bricks could not be distinguished by his spiritual sense.
"It's a ladder to heaven. Go up and you can enter the palace of the spirits."
Many teams exclaimed in surprise, their eyes lit with ecstasy, as if they had already stepped onto the ladder to heaven and could enter the Spirit Palace in the blink of an eye.
Four huge ladders, each occupying a different position, divided the more than one hundred people in the square into four parts.
The people in those teams also approached the ladder and rushed to step onto it.
"Uncle Junior Master, shall we go?"
Looking at the team rushing to step onto the ladder to heaven, the younger disciples couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Zhao shook his head slightly and said, "Be careful of traps, let them pass first."
The younger disciples responded and moved closer to Jiang Zhao to prevent people from other teams from coming over and separating them.
As more and more people stepped on the spiritual bricks on the ladder, the spiritual bricks seemed to behave strangely.
Some spiritual bricks began to loosen and fall.
The person who stepped on the spiritual bricks had no time to dodge and fell down along with the spiritual bricks.
"ah……"
"Save me..."
One after another, shrill screams rang out.
The faces of those who stepped onto the ladder to heaven were as black as the bottom of a pot. They stepped on the spiritual bricks that had not yet loosened, but they didn't know whether to advance or retreat.
If you move forward, you don’t know whether the spiritual bricks under your feet will fall; if you move backward, you can’t find any spiritual bricks to step on safely.
Immediately afterwards, something unexpected happened. The people who were chasing behind began to urge the people in front, and once the people in front refused to give in, they started fighting.
There are four ladders leading to heaven, and each one is filled with chaos.
"This hole is really big."
Jiang Zhao sighed. She finally understood that if she wanted to enter the Linggong Palace, this ladder was the only way.
However, the simplest and most effective trap was set on the ladder: stepping on bricks.
