Chapter 362: Treasure Trap (5)
Things are back to square one.
There is no doubt that everyone obediently lined up, one by one took turns to walk the road to heaven, if you can't bear the pressure, then go back the same way, let the next person go, this method is the best.
But who goes first?
Moreover, such efficiency is simply too slow.
For the sake of the treasure, everyone finally sat down for the first time, ready to talk.
After deliberating for a long time, everyone finally unanimously decided to nominate a person with the lowest cultivation present to be the pioneer and test the degree of coercion on the steps.
Wait until you have the data before deciding on the next step.
Why choose one with the lowest grade?
Obviously, the person with the lowest cultivation will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure behind the steps, and will definitely fall back.
In this way, there is no need to be afraid that this person will be able to reach the top.
You can also estimate the height of the steps you can climb based on the height of the steps that this person can climb.
If the estimated results show that there is still a long way to go to the top, then there is no need to waste the effort.
In the end, the one who was elected was actually a young second-generation cultivator of the fourth layer of the Star Shell Realm.
With his age, it is already good to have such cultivation, but he has not grown up yet, and in the eyes of other old birds, he is still a rookie.
The second generation of Xiu is usually very proud, and after being elected, not only did he not feel ashamed, but secretly rejoiced.
I kept laughing at the other fools in my heart.
Obviously, he is very confident in reaching the summit and does not feel that he is just a tool to test the data.
So, the first person finally stepped on the steps.
The first thousand steps, he didn't have any pressure, and he went up in just a few breaths.
On the second thousand steps, he began to feel a hint of pressure, and it took three times longer than before.
On the tenth thousand-step step, he could only move forward at a turtle speed, and the time it took was already incalculable.
When he stepped on the twelfth thousand and first steps with half a foot, the coercion directly blasted him out and fell at an extremely high speed from a height of thousands of meters.
When he landed, the whole person had already fallen into a pulp, and he couldn't die anymore.
Everyone had no sympathy, and gloated: "You deserve it." ”
It's strange if you don't measure your strength and hold on, and if you don't fall to your death.
With the data of the first person, the rest is easy.
Everyone selected fourteen people from the crowd to continue the test, and their cultivation ranged from the fifth layer of the Star Shell Realm to the ninth layer of the Star Mantle Realm, and there was one person in each level.
Ranked from high to low, they set foot on the road to heaven successively.
The test results came out quickly, and for each level of cultivation, you could climb about 3,000 more steps. The one on the ninth floor of the Star Mantle Realm fell down from the fifty-four thousand and one steps.
The data came out, but everyone had one more question.
The first fool doesn't know how to advance and retreat, and it's understandable that he fell down and died.
But with a precedent, are the next fourteen people stupid? If they can't hold on, won't they go back the way they came?
As a result, without exception, they all fell to their deaths.
Do they can't or don't want to?
Then, another cannon fodder was pushed out.
This man did nothing else but to test whether he could go back the way he came when he reached a similar height.
The results were terrifying.
On the first floor of this person's Star Mantle Realm, when he stepped on the 10,000th step and just turned around to return, a powerful coercion directly bombarded his back.
Before he could hit the ground, he turned into a cloud of blood in mid-air.
In other words, there is no way back to the road to heaven.
If you can't reach the top, you can only die.
Why isn't there a hint on the bulletin board?
It was only then that everyone reacted.
Prompts are favors, and not prompts are reasonable.
Who says you have to give you plenty of tips?
This time, even the sixth-layer powerhouse of the Star Core Realm who had the highest cultivation in the field couldn't calm down.
Because according to estimates, he will not be able to reach the top, and he will definitely die.
Withdraw...
This is what everyone thinks at the same time.
But in the next second, something even more terrifying happened.
Behind him, the three suspension bridges were gone, and the area of the platform was shrinking at a visible rate.
There are about 30,000 people at the site, occupying one-fifth of the entire platform.
According to the speed at which the platform is reduced, in two days, these 30,000 people will no longer have the slightest room to move.
On the third day, someone will fall under the platform.
If you fall, you don't have to think about it to know the consequences.
This means that entering is death, and waiting is death.
As for retreating, then don't think about it.
At this time, there were two more pieces of information on the bulletin board very abruptly.
First, the road to heaven can only advance and not retreat.
Second, the road to heaven can accommodate up to 1,000 people at the same time, and for every person who dies on the road, the coercion is reduced by 1/10,000.
The first one has already been witnessed by everyone, and there are no surprises except for complaining about why it was not announced earlier.
The key is the second one.
What do you mean?
The meaning is twofold.
The first point is that the data just tested is wrong. The first one does not count the second generation, and the fourteen people in the back, for each level of cultivation, they can probably climb 3,000 more steps, this data is wrong.
Because, since the fifth layer of that Star Shell Realm was the first to hang up, the coercion on the next thirteen people would be reduced accordingly. In the same way, since the sixth layer of the Star Shell Realm was hung up one after another, the coercion on the back twelve people would also be reduced accordingly.
And so on.
In other words, if the ninth layer of the Star Mantle Realm was alone, it would be impossible for him to ascend the fifty-four thousand and one steps. As a result, thirteen other people helped him push it up.
The second point, theoretically, as long as there is enough cannon fodder behind to help the flames, everyone has the hope of reaching the top.
For example, the second-generation cultivator of the fourth layer of the Star Shell Realm just now, after reaching a certain height, neither retreats nor moves, then his life will not be in danger.
Suppose there are 9,999 people behind him, and these people are willing to sacrifice for him, and then when all these people are hung up, the majesty on the road to heaven will only be 1/10,000 of the original, and he can successfully reach the top.
But who is stupid to use their own lives as a stepping stone for others?
The five smartest were the first to react.
So at the same time, they rushed towards the road to heaven.
Three of them rushed too fast and accidentally stepped on the first step at the same time, and then were obliterated at the same time.
The other two, one in the Star Core Realm and the other in the Star Mantle Realm, have no suspense at all.
As a result, the one in the Star Core Realm was the first to ascend to the Heavenly Path.
After stepping on the first step, his heart settled down, and he began to climb slowly and unhurriedly.
The others were still in the clouds, so they were ready to surround the star mantle realm and ask what was going on.
That Star Mantle Realm will care about you, and he chased after that Star Core Realm.
One after another, many smart people figured out the truth and rushed to the road to heaven.
What do they mean by that?
This means that the first person to climb up will not be in danger as long as he remains motionless on a certain step.
As the platform shrinks, others are bound to make a fight before the last moment.
Due to the limit of 1,000 people, there will definitely be some casualties in the scramble.
In this way, the first person can sit back and enjoy the success, and when the majesty has reached a certain level, he can move on.
After the first person reaches the top, the second person will naturally become the second beneficiary.
After the second person reaches the top, the third beneficiary will appear in third place.
And so on.
To put it simply, the sooner you set foot on the road to heaven, the easier it will be to reach the top.
Among them, it has little to do with cultivation.
As long as the ranking goes up, the people behind can only be the stepping stones of the people in front, and the more 'contribution' you have, the less chance you have to reach the top.
Suppose the second place is a Star Mantle Realm, and the third place is a Star Core Realm, but does the third place dare to surpass the second place?
Can't.
Because if you want to surpass, you will inevitably have the opportunity to be on the same level as the other party.
As a result, both of them will die.
More and more people are understanding the reasoning.
So, in order to be able to step on the road to heaven first, in order to reduce his 'contribution', a melee started again.
