Chapter 113 Three Thousand Long Steps
There is a fairy island in the vast East China Sea, named Penglai. On Penglai Island there is a Penglai Mountain with three thousand long steps. You have to bow your head every three steps. At the end of the road, you can reshape the past.
Three days passed quickly. Tonight, the seabed was very restless, with many sea beasts appearing. Ning Ruoxi sensed many terrifying auras among the Qingluan tribe.
Some sea beasts also discovered Ning Ruoxi. If Qingluan hadn't been accompanying her, these sea beasts would probably have come looking for Ning Ruoxi.
Qing Yan appeared in front of Ning Ruoxi again. He released his powerful aura to drive away the sea beasts of its tribe. On this trip to Penglai, he only planned to take Ning Ruoxi with him, and Qingquan would stay in the Qingluan tribe.
"Let's go!" Qing Yan took Ning Ruoxi and shuttled quickly in the sea. Ning Ruoxi's spiritual sense could not keep up with Qing Yan's speed, and she could not see the surrounding scenery clearly.
It was not until Qing Yan slowed down that Ning Ruoxi noticed that there were many other sea beasts from other species around her.
The sea beasts were surrounding an island, an island at the bottom of the sea.
"That's Penglai Island!" Qing Yan pointed his finger at the island on the seabed ahead. Ning Ruoxi couldn't see the situation on the island clearly, and even her spiritual sense couldn't detect it.
"Penglai Island is actually at the bottom of the sea!" Ning Ruoxi murmured. No wonder no one has been able to find Penglai Island until now.
There must be something special about Penglai Island, otherwise Qingfeng would have found it long ago with his magical powers.
"Qing Yan, why did you bring humans here!" The aura of several ninth-level sea beasts fell on Ning Ruoxi.
Ning Ruoxi felt tremendous pressure, as if if she made any unusual movement, she would be torn to pieces by this pressure.
Qing Yan stood in front of Ning Ruoxi and took on all the auras of the ninth-level sea beasts. "Don't worry, this human has my mark in her body. She won't hinder our 'Sea God Society'."
"It's better this way, otherwise we will jointly hold you accountable!" With Qing Yan's guarantee, the ninth-level sea beasts withdrew their breath one after another, giving Qing Yan face.
"Don't be nervous. My Qingluan clan has many friendly clans. Those sea beasts just now were all putting on an act for the other sea beasts to see. Otherwise, it would be too abrupt for a human like you to come to Penglai Island." Qing Yan turned and said to Ning Ruoxi.
Ning Ruoxi didn't care about these things, but what Qing Yan said made sense. It was impossible for humans alone to enter Penglai Island. With so many ninth-level sea beasts here, even Bai Hun would vomit several pounds of blood if he came.
The moonlight was bright, and when it shone through the clouds onto the sea, the entire Penglai Island emitted a bright white light, as if Penglai Island had come alive.
"That is... the power of Taiyin!" Ning Ruoxi's eyes were fixed on the white light on Penglai Island.
With just the moonlight, the power of Taiyin emerged on the Penglai Island. However, Ning Ruoxi was unable to absorb this power of Taiyin. With so many sea beasts watching, she had other important things to do.
Penglai Island seemed to be in a huge bubble, with a wall surrounding the entire island. After the Taiyin force appeared, a hole appeared in the wall for sea beasts to enter.
Those powerful sea beasts reduced their size and entered.
Qing Yan and Ning Ruoxi also crossed this wall. The power of Taiyin carried their bodies to Penglai Island. The power of Taiyin in Qing Yan's body returned to the wall above.
The Taiyin power in Ning Ruoxi was silently absorbed by the black crescent rune.
Ning Ruoxi looked around. Penglai Island was not particularly big, and it was full of trees. As for what kind of trees they were, Ning Ruoxi couldn't recognize them.
In addition, there is a huge statue in the center of the island. The statue has a human face and a snake body, which looks weird.
"This is the Sea God. Legend has it that he is the ancestor of all sea beasts. Today, sea beasts can live in such a large ocean area, all thanks to the Sea God." Qing Yan introduced to Ning Ruoxi.
"Since we are not attending the Poseidon Meeting, we will not go to the Poseidon statue. I will take you directly to that fairy mountain!"
"good."
The situation on Penglai Island was similar to what Qingquan had said, it was indeed impossible to fly, so Qingyan and Ning Ruoxi could only walk to the fairy mountain.
There are many mountains here, but there is only one mountain with long steps.
…….
"This is it!" Qing Yan said, pointing to the long steps in front.
"I can't go up, and neither can other sea beasts. There is an invisible force preventing sea beasts from climbing up."
Penglai Island has basically been explored by sea beasts, but the peculiarities of this mountain have not yet been discovered.
"Just try to climb! If you can't walk up, then there's really nothing you can do."
Ning Ruoxi nodded. If she couldn't go up, she would still fulfill her promise to Qing Yan and protect Qingquan in the world of immortal cultivation.
Ning Ruoxi was looking for the legendary Penglai Island because she had Lin Shuang in her mind.
The lack of love has cut off Ning Ruoxi's feelings for everyone, but her cognition tells her that she should go looking for Penglai Island for that glimmer of hope.
Ning Ruoxi looked at the white stairs and took a decisive step forward. The repulsive force that Qing Yan imagined did not appear, and Ning Ruoxi was not repelled down the stairs.
She made it up successfully!
"Can she really walk up these stairs? Or can all humans walk up them?" Qing Yan's eyes were filled with doubt. In his sight, Ning Ruoxi walked up these stairs and then disappeared.
“I hope you can succeed!”
Qing Yan was also very curious about what existed on the top of the mountain. Even a ninth-level sea beast could not force its way in.
Ning Ruoxi began to climb the stairs following the principle of bowing every three steps. From the moment she stepped onto the stairs, she felt a slight pressure, which became greater and greater as she climbed higher.
"Senior Qingfeng's words have been mostly verified. Can the old days really be anything? Then can I resurrect my master?" Ning Ruoxi tried hard to move forward.
When she reached the 100th floor, the pressure on Ning Ruoxi seemed to have reached a new level. She had to use the spiritual power in her body to resist the pressure. Her body was soaked with sweat.
When she reached the 500th floor, Ning Ruoxi's spiritual power was exhausted in the process. She simply sat cross-legged on the stairs to recover her spiritual power and then continued to climb up.
When she reached the thousandth floor, Ning Ruoxi could no longer recover her spiritual power under this tremendous pressure. She tried to open the storage ring and wanted to use spirit stones to recover her spiritual power, but here, the storage ring seemed unable to be opened.
With her spiritual power exhausted, every step Ning Ruoxi took was extremely difficult. It was almost like walking, but in fact, it was no different from crawling.
It's really climbing the ladder.
"I can't stop here!" Ning Ruoxi clenched her fists. Even though her body was shaking, she still wanted to go to the next level.
When she climbed to the 1,200th floor, Ning Ruoxi's body was covered with blood. Her body could no longer withstand the pressure.
