Chapter 309: Five-Story Square, Hercules Ladder (4)
When the unicorn died, the entire five-story plaza was once again in full view, and everyone else had passed more than three floors, and two more had already stepped into the fifth floor.
The strange thing is that he is now unharmed, and there is no trace of injury in the left shoulder that has been pierced, which can not help but make him feel a little surprised.
Whether this was an illusion or something real, he really couldn't figure it out.
Glancing at the two of them on the fifth floor, they kept moving in place as if they were fighting the air, occasionally spitting out a mouthful of blood.
But now he doesn't look like he's been injured at all, his whole body is comfortable, and his spiritual power is running without hindrance.
"That's not right!"
Jiang Kong was suddenly shocked, he was already in the phantom array, and he suddenly understood that there was still a phantom array in this fifth layer.
Closed his eyes and calmed down, and ran directly in the direction of his memory, striding forward.
"It seems that the five-story square is already difficult for him, and the next step is the Hercules ladder, which should not be difficult for him. ”
At the top of the Hercules Ladder, the old man of the Great Sect had a complicated expression on his face, he hoped that Jiang Kong could cross the Hercules Ladder and become a disciple of the sect, so that the Hercules Sect would have the possibility of climbing to the peak again.
I also hope that he will not be able to climb up and be expelled, so that it will not bring a crisis to the sect, and there will be many contradictions for a while.
"Hehe! Great Sect Elder, Four Sect Elders, it seems that this Jiangkong Pass is safe, and you don't have other ideas. ”
The three sect elders have an upright temperament, and they are happy to see Jiang Kong so good, Guan Yu can't help nodding, and now the time has just passed more than half an hour, and Jiang Kong has already walked out of the five-story square.
The next Hercules ladder mainly relies on strength, for him, it is absolutely easy, and it should not be difficult to reach the top.
......
Jiang Kong felt that he had come to the end, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that there was indeed a high cliff in front of him, and when he looked up, the stone stairs reached the sky step by step, and each stone staircase was one meter wide, ten meters long, and one meter high.
It seems very simple, even ordinary people can climb up with a lot of effort, let alone cultivators like them.
But is that really the case?
Obviously not, when he stepped on the first stone staircase, he finally knew how bad this ladder was.
A pressure fell on his shoulders, just like an ordinary person carrying dozens of pounds.
"It turned out to increase gravity!" Jiang Kong muttered to himself.
Look up, there are about 5,000 steps of stone stairs, if each step adds a little gravity, the front is fine, and the last one is really not easy to pass.
Turning his head to look, the others had basically arrived at the fifth floor of the square, and what they saw this time was very different, each of them was fighting with an immortal beast.
These immortal beasts generally have a characteristic, that is, they are one level higher than the humans who fight with him, some of these people have the upper hand, and some can only fight to a draw with each other.
But the careful Jiang Kong found a doubt, that is, all the injured people seemed to be much weaker, but in fact they were not, they were suppressed by an invisible force.
Seeing this, the expression on Jiang Kong's face was shocked again, this formation is really not good, it can not only affect the spirit, but also affect the play of the immortal qi.
Only then did he suddenly realize why he was already injured, but he was okay at all, it turned out that the battle was real, the injury was fake, and it was all the formation that was playing tricks.
Scanning the whole field, looking at the situation, the people below can also pass through the fifth layer of the square, after all, they are all ascendants, and they were all geniuses before, and leapfrogging battles are basically commonplace.
Looking up again, I don't know what problems are waiting for me in the back, so I will sprint first while there is still enough time.
Now this pressure is just a drizzle for him, and he has stepped out one step and has come to the second stone staircase.
Sure enough, the gravity of the second step increased again, although it was not much, but if it continued like this, the back would definitely not be so easy to climb.
Next, he didn't stop and pedaled up 4,000 meters in one go.
The gravity here is already very strong, and if an ordinary person is here, he will definitely be crushed into a patty by the gravity here.
Jiang Kong let out a sigh, he could already clearly see the top of the stone staircase, where there were more than a dozen people judging him.
Cheng Xiu, Cong Yun, and Lu Feihu were suddenly listed, and as for the others, he didn't know any of them.
However, those people are all full of energy, their appearance is full of energy, surrounded by fairy light, and they don't seem to be simple characters, among them, the boy who seems to be in his twenties, and the wrinkled old man are even more golden in their eyes, not easy to match.
Jiang Kong just glanced at it, and had already guessed that these people were definitely the leaders of the Hercules Sect, and he must have listened to Cheng Xiu and Cong Yun's story, and wanted to see what he Jiang Kong was capable of.
smiled faintly, he didn't care about this time, after all, people are curious, and he didn't pay much attention to it anymore and stepped again.
Four thousand meters is a 4,000-step stone staircase, and after visual inspection, he already has an approximation, this stone staircase has a total of about 5,000 steps, which means that there are 1,000 stone stairs behind.
At the fourth thousandth and one step, the pressure doubled on the basis of the fourth thousandth.
The current gravity made Jiang Kong feel struggling, or the system upgrade was too unexpected for him, if there was a five-fold defense card now, this last thousand steps would definitely be easy.
But the system stopped working, and nothing in it could be summoned, and he could only Y~Y.
Six or seven hours have passed, and the upgrade bar of the system has not even reached 10%, so it is obviously unrealistic to wait for the system upgrade to be completed.
"Only I have to fight hard!"
Jiang Kong gritted his teeth and took another step forward.
Fortunately, gravity did not increase exponentially, and his confidence increased greatly, and he did not feel too hard to infuse his spiritual power all over his body.
First-order, second-order, third-order...... After a hundred steps, the pressure suddenly doubles again.
"Hehe, the last 999 steps increase the pressure every 100 floors, and in the end it is nine times the pressure, and this pressure is different for everyone, the stronger the strength, the greater the pressure, look at this Jiangkong still has the strength to spare, I don't know if he can climb it smoothly. ”
Guan Yu smiled, as the sect master of the Hercules Sect, of course he hoped that his subordinates could produce a peerless genius, so he did not hesitate to offend the peak forces.
"Everyone's different?" Cheng Xiu and Cong Yun couldn't help but be surprised, neither of them was an ascendant, although they had also been tested when they first entered the sect, it was much easier to bring.
And the five-story square, the Hercules ladder they have not experienced, of course they don't know the difficulty.
They looked down, and the others also began to climb the Hercules ladder one after another, at first, everyone seemed to be easy and climbed fast, regardless of the strength of the realm, but once they reached the four thousand steps, they all began to slow down.
When he went up more than three hundred steps, Jiang Kong's speed dropped again, he kicked a rough breath, looked down, and everyone else began to enter above the four thousand steps.
However, they are far from catching up with Jiangkong, and they are all recovering their immortal spirit power in the same place, even if they advance, they will have to recover at the next level.
Jiang Kong rested for a while, his strength recovered a lot again, his body was like a javelin, and he once again puffed up and climbed up.
......
Half an hour has passed, and the top is already vivid, Guan Yu looked at Jiang Kong with a smile on his face, looked at Jiang Kong and said: "The last ninth level, one day at a time, you will be a disciple of the Hercules Sect, no matter how big the matter is, there will be the support of the sect, if you fail, you will have nothing to do with the Hercules Sect in the future." ”
Yes, above that, there are only the last nine orders left, and these last nine orders must be a doubling of pressure, otherwise Guan Yu would not have spoken like this.
Jiang Kong stood on the top of the 4,990-step stone platform, his face was a little pale, but his breathing was steady, and there was no disorder at all, it seemed that he was not tired, but he did not continue to go up.
Because listening to Guan Yu's words, he had a trace of vigilance, this last ninth order must be different, and it won't be as simple as gravity.
Adjusting his mentality, Jiang Kong took another step forward, he was already mentally prepared to deal with emergencies.
Sure enough, when he stepped on this step, he felt a mountain of pressure rush over him.
And, a blue arc of lightning came out of the stone steps, burrowed into his feet, into his body, and swam wildly.
"Shhh
After the blue arc entered his body, it was like a tiger returning to the mountain, scurrying wildly, and the power of the thunder points contained in it kept releasing it, and he grinned in pain.
Jiang Kong immediately activated the immortal qi to block this arc of electricity, and the blue arc was wrapped into a ball by his immortal power and isolated out.
Then he used the force again, walked around the body, and forced it out of the palm.
"Boom!"
The arc exploded directly in the air, turning into electric light, and finally dissipating.
Jiang Kong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he dealt with it carefully, it seemed that the remaining few steps would not be too difficult.
Taking a step forward, the pressure doubled again, and the sudden pressure almost crushed him to his stomach.
However, he reacted immediately, and his strength was urging to stabilize his body.
At the same time, a fiery dragon appeared out of thin air and lunged wildly towards him, causing the temperature around him to rise sharply.
Jiang Kong had already prepared, smiled coldly, and directly froze at the fire dragon.
The power of extreme cold erupted, colliding with the fire dragon, making a loud sound, and then two forces burst out, instantly submerging Jiang Kong's figure, but he was firmly blocked.
As soon as the impact passed, Jiang Kong straightened his wind-blown hair and walked forward again.
Next, he encountered a water dragon attack, sword qi was horizontal, vines were entangled, mountains were added, and tornado storms were all overcome by him one by one.
At this time, above him, there were only two stone stairs left.
These two orders are definitely not simple, and Jiang Kong is fully prepared to deal with them.
Step on the penultimate step.
The huge pressure hit in an instant, and he could no longer support it, and was pressed to the ground.
At the same time, a powerful spiritual force entered his mind, all the way forward, trying to destroy the nerves of his brain.
The pain in his brain was unbearable, and the huge pressure from the outside world pressed him to the ground, feeling as if he was being pressed by a mountain, and he couldn't move at all.
Although the situation was not optimistic, he did not panic at all, the Divine Power Supreme Shield was released instantly, the pressure on his body was light, and then he endured the pain in his mind and sat directly cross-legged.
The power of the Divine Slash went deep along the brain, and then resisted the spiritual power that invaded the brain, slowly forcing it out of the body.
Suddenly, he stood up in an instant, his body moved, and he had entered the last step.
Seeing Jiang Kong take the last step, Guan Yu's face showed a smile, and he said to Lu Feihu on the side, "When he comes out, bring him to see me immediately!"
After speaking, he turned around directly and walked towards the Temple of Hercules, and the other five sect elders also turned around and followed.
Waiting for the sect master and several major sect elders to disappear, Cheng Xiu couldn't help but wonder: "Second Senior Uncle, why did the sect master leave like this?"
"Hehe, of course it's gone, this Jiangkong has already passed!" Lu Feihu smiled lightly.
"After passing the level, isn't there still a first order?" Cheng Xiu wondered.
"Look!"
Lu Feihu didn't explain either, and pointed to the last step.
......
Jiang Kong stepped out and climbed the last step.
He had already used the power of the immortals, and the Supreme Shield and the Vajra Battle Armor, which had been promoted to the second level, had also been released.
But when he stepped on the last step, it was completely different from what he had imagined.
At this time, he was on a circular platform, the platform was not large, one meter square, there was no pressure, and there was no strength to sneak attack, on the contrary, he felt comfortable all over his body.
A colorful glow swayed down, and he suddenly felt extremely refreshed all over his body, as if he had reached some kind of high X.
This kind of colorful light is different from the color of the power of the fairy, the color of the power of the fairy is very light, but the color of the rainbow that descends is very rich.
Blue as water, red as fire, purple as lightning, and white as a knife of the wind.
This surprised him, and when he looked at his whole body carefully, there was nothing wrong with it, and then he was relieved.
Looking around, his entire body was gradually wrapped in colorful light, and the light was dazzling, and he couldn't see the situation outside even more clearly.
Suddenly!
A force entered his body, this force was very gentle, but it also surprised him, and he wanted to use the power of the fairy to expel him.
But as soon as he mobilized the immortal qi, this power had already merged with the immortal qi in his body, and he felt that the immortal power in his body carried a powerful vitality.
If you are injured now, if you use this power again, the healing efficiency will definitely be doubled.
"What's going on?"
Before he could understand it, another force entered, and this force was equally gentle and harmless to him, but this power quickly merged into his body with a hint of heat.
The immortal qi rolled, and a wave of fire spread from his body, and the temperature of the surrounding air was steep.
This is not the end, and then there are five forces one after another, which are the power of electricity, the power of earth, the power of gold, the power of wind, and the power of water.
It was exactly the same power he had just felt on the last seven stone steps.
Now Jiang Kong understands a little, this must be his reward for passing the Hercules ladder, however, there is still one last spiritual power.
Sure enough, just when he was still wondering, a burst of excitement flowed through his body, and then fell into his mind.
"Cool! It's so cool! It's so cool!" Jiang Kong couldn't help but yell.
......
Outside, eight days have passed since Jiang Kong stepped into the last stone staircase, and Cheng Xiu and Cong Yun accompanied Lu Feihu for another eight days.
