Whoosh whoosh…
A panting sound like a bellows was heard at the top of the mountain.
Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, only the last step is left!
As long as he takes this step, he can reach the top!
"@#%..."
The Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth sat on the steps, seemingly a little bored of waiting, and was asking Xiao Chen why he took so long to come up. Wasn't it too slow?
Xiao Chen looked at the leisurely appearance of the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth and almost choked to death when he went back.
He was as tired as a dog, but it was so tired that it even crossed its legs!
"Xiao Jian, will there be an opportunity when I take this step? Or will there be some changes? For example, the sky and the earth changing color?"
Xiao Chen looked at the sword in his hand. At this moment, he used the sword as a crutch.
You know what, it’s quite useful and can help you leverage your power.
"You think too much..."
The sword emitted the vibrations of the sword spirit.
"Okay, let's go up and take a look."
Xiao Chen was using the 'Chaos Art' madly; success or failure depended on this one kick!
After accumulating strength, he exerted great force with his right hand holding the sword, and used the force to take the final step forward.
Click.
"Hmm."
Xiao Chen cried out in pain, and blood flowed from all his orifices.
He felt as if all the bones in his body were crushed and the pain was unbearable at this moment.
He took one step and landed steadily on the steps. After supporting his body, he suddenly stepped forward.
"Nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps..."
Xiao Chen let out a sigh of relief, and instead of moving forward, he sat down cross-legged and began to practice.
"!@#¥..."
The spiritual roots of heaven and earth saw that Xiao Chen was practicing, so they did not disturb him and jumped forward.
As time passed, Xiao Chen's body trembled slightly, and there was a faint sound of thunder coming from his body.
Below, two middle-aged men were moving steadily upwards.
They surpassed the Ghost King and others and continued to move upwards without stopping.
"Who are they? Does anyone know them?"
“No.”
"Don't think about it. There are traces of disguise."
"Disguise? Ha, all kinds of demons and monsters have come out, and they are disguised?"
"Why, are the demons and monsters here getting in your way?"
The one-eyed man looked at the Ghost King and said unhappily.
"Uh, I forgot your name is Wuliang."
The Ghost King looked at the two men's backs.
"Who do you think they could be?"
"Who is it and what does it have to do with us?"
"Too."
The two middle-aged men went up a little further, and one of them seemed to be struggling.
"Whether you can get there has nothing to do with your strength..."
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.
"I may not be able to accompany you to the summit."
"Just wait here for me. I'll go up by myself."
Another middle-aged man said.
"Go one more step, you can still hold on."
The two continued to move forward while talking.
"Um?"
Li Guizi was practicing. When he heard the noise, he lowered his head and looked down.
Is there anyone else coming up?
The two middle-aged men also saw Li Cunzi and were a little surprised.
No wonder I didn’t see this old cripple just now. He actually climbed to this height?
So surprising!
"You go ahead."
The middle-aged man on the left gave up.
"good."
The middle-aged man on the right nodded and walked slowly up.
Li Guizi looked at the middle-aged man and wanted to stop him, but after thinking about it, he decided not to take any action.
Not to mention that it becomes more difficult as you go up, he may not be able to make it.
Considering that such a long time has passed, Xiao Chen should have reached the top.
The middle-aged man passed by Li Cuzi and continued to go up, his pace becoming slower.
Click.
Blood was oozing from the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth, and he felt that his internal organs and bones were somewhat deformed.
However, he still persisted.
He didn't want to admit that he was worse than Xiao Chen!
Since I haven’t seen Xiao Chen yet, that means Xiao Chen must be in front!
When he was questioning himself just now, he and Qing Yunzi were overshadowed by Xiao Chen. Now... he must not let Xiao Chen suppress him again.
What Xiao Chen can do, Shanhai Jun can't do?
He is the most powerful genius!
"Today, I will kill you!"
The middle-aged man growled, gritted his teeth, and stepped forward.
At this time, Xiao Chen had finished his training and stood up and walked forward.
The pressure suddenly disappeared.
There are large rocks standing in front of us.
"Nine pieces, but what's the point? Where is the emperor's mark?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and walked forward slowly.
The spiritual root of heaven and earth was currently sitting on a large rock, having a lot of fun.
"@#..."
When the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth saw Xiao Chen coming, he waved.
"Xiaojian, where is the emperor's mark?"
Xiao Chen looked at the sword and asked.
"Go to the middle of the Nine Dragon Stone."
The sword spirit fluctuates.
"Nine Dragon Stone?"
Xiao Chen looked around and was surprised to find that there really seemed to be a dragon.
He came to the middle of the nine big stones, stood still, and saw light flashing on the nine stones.
Then, a shadow appeared in front of him.
This phantom, wearing a crown and a yellow robe, has a slender figure and exudes the aura of a superior.
"Emperor Xuanyuan?"
Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed and he was shocked.
Is this the mark of the emperor?
This was not the first time he had seen a spiritual imprint from the past, but the person before him was clearly different from the others.
He is the Human Emperor!
"Greetings to Emperor Xuanyuan."
Xiao Chen suppressed his shock, clasped his hands together, and bowed.
Although the one before him was not the real Emperor Xuanyuan, but just an imprint of his soul, it was still worth his worship.
In the void, an old man who looked exactly like the one in front of Xiao Chen was stroking his pet with a smile on his face.
"What do you think? Should I show up and talk to him?"
The old man said.
The pet leaned against the old man, squinting its eyes with a comfortable expression.
"Forget it, let's take a look first. It's not the right time to meet yet."
Soon, the old man made a decision.
"Seeing how much he can understand is also a small test for me."
Just as the old man was speaking, the soul mark in front of Xiao Chen slowly spoke.
"All my life's insights are here. How much you can understand depends on your understanding..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light shot out from the shadow's brow and enveloped Xiao Chen.
Upon seeing this, the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth flipped down from the boulder and landed on Xiao Chen's shoulder, and was also enveloped by the light.
"I……"
In front of Xiao Chen's eyes, a void screen seemed to appear, with images flashing by.
He soon understood. No wonder the Sword Spirit said this was a great opportunity.
Here, we can find Emperor Xuanyuan’s insights into cultivation. Although there are no specific techniques, they are also extremely remarkable.
As for how much you can understand, just like Emperor Xuanyuan said, it all depends on your understanding.
"Do you think he can understand even one tenth of it?"
In the void, the old man asked with a smile.
"You are too young. All my life's insights are here. Even if you have a high level of understanding, you may not understand it if you have not experienced it."
The pet didn't answer, but rubbed against the old man, smiling.
"Hmm? Someone else has come up? Two people have climbed to the Heavenly Stairs in one day?"
The old man sensed something and looked towards the direction of the Heavenly Stage.
"Once the spiritual energy is revived, they will quickly become stronger... This is an extremely brilliant world!"
