Chapter Seventy-Three: The Secret of the Steps

After a while, Ye Chu's eyes regained their brightness, his fingers moved slightly, his eyes blinked, and Ye Chu seemed to come to life like a puppet, and moved his body slightly stiffly.

Looking at her hand, Ye Chu narrowed her eyes slightly, she raised her foot, tentatively stepping down like the hundredth layer. An invisible barrier prevented her from stepping down.

As if thinking of something, Ye Chu's body shook violently. She took a quick step back and retreated to the ninety-ninth step. After stomping his feet on this layer vigorously, no vision appeared. Ye Chu took another step back and retreated to the ninety-eighth step. After muttering in place for a while, Ye Chu stepped on the ninety-ninth step again, and after standing for a while, she tried to step on the hundredth step again, but was still hindered by the invisible barrier.

Up and down, like a child who has never climbed the stairs, Ye Chu repeated this game of advancing and retreating several times with great interest. Slowly, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This road to heaven should be a game similar to breaking through, the ninety-ninth step is the first level, if you can't meet certain conditions, break this level, you can't enter the next level, then you have to stop there. As for the conditions for breaking the customs, Ye Chu already had a guess in his heart, and only certification remained.

Stepping on the ninety-ninth step again, Ye Chu felt his head dizzy again, and the feeling as if his divine sense had swept through appeared again. A small spiritual light flew out of her sea of consciousness, Ye Chu's head ached sharply, and after that, it was dark in front of him, and his divine sense entered a pitch-black space.

In this pitch-black space, a point of light suddenly appeared, illuminating the space, and slowly transformed into a glittering Ye Chu holding a rusty sword. It's just that this Ye Chu's figure is a little vain, and he doesn't look like a living person. At the same time as Ye Chu's light man appeared, a faceless light man holding a light sword also appeared instantly. As soon as this light man appeared, he raised his hand and stabbed at Ye Chu as fast as lightning.

Ye Chu looked at this familiar scene, his heart was indifferent, his eyes were calm, his thin figure was like a sharp sword, he raised the lightsaber in his hand and greeted it with the same stabbing style. The crisp sound of the sword rang out, echoing in the pitch-black space.

Stabbing, picking, teasing, splitting, blocking, there are no gorgeous moves, only the confrontation of basic sword moves, Ye Chu is constantly learning the movements of the light man and correcting the deviations in his moves. There were several chances, Ye Chu's sword could already kill the light man in front of her, but she tried her best to withdraw her sword and let go of the opportunity again and again.

Silently calculating the time, Ye Chu said in his heart that it was almost coming. Sure enough, as soon as this thought came to her, a sharp sword aura came out from all directions, and Ye Chu seemed to be hanging on the sharp blade of the sword. This pain pierced her heart and bones, as if she had been cut alive by a knife, but Ye Chu's eyes lit up, and she seemed to enjoy the pain with a smile. The sword in her hand danced unhurriedly, and gradually the smile on Ye Chu's face became more and more vigorous, and she and the light man in front of her seemed to be on two sides of the mirror, and their movements were exactly the same, no difference.

Ye Chu swung his sword, and with a sword, he cut off the neck of this light man, and the light man's figure suddenly scattered, turning into countless points of light and pouring into Ye Chu's body.

As soon as her eyes darkened, Ye Chu's divine consciousness returned to her body. Clenched his fist, Ye Chu's divine sense moved, and he immediately felt the difference from before. Her consciousness is more condensed, and she is a little more agile and comfortable in her movements. Draw the rusty sword from your waist, stab and pick ...... After a set of basic sword moves were cast, Ye Chu inserted the rusty sword into the scabbard and nodded with satisfaction. Sure enough, as she thought, the moves practiced in the space on the ninety-nine steps can be reflected on the entity, and her swordsmanship foundation has been consolidated a lot, and the basic sword moves are already very standard, and she can't continue to improve in a short period of time, and all that's left is a lot of practice.

This is really a great place, not only can you condense your divine sense, but also someone teaches sword moves hand-in-hand, Ye Chu's moves and styles are all drilled according to her own understanding, and she constantly adjusts in battle, although her combat effectiveness is not low, but she lacks the necessary guidance, and the foundation of sword moves and sword styles is relatively weak, which makes her understand the sword intent a big obstacle.

Now that he had such a good opportunity in front of him, Ye Chu's eyes shone brightly, as if a person who was extremely hungry saw a sumptuous and delicious meal in front of him. Licking his lips, Ye Chu stepped on the hundredth step with anticipation.

stepped firmly on the cyan steps, and a sense of oppression was overwhelmingly pressed down. Ye Chu's body sank heavily, and she could clearly feel that the pressure on this layer of steps was twice as high as the pressure on the ninety-eighth step.

"Buzz!" The steps under Ye Chu's feet suddenly trembled slightly, and a surging aura surged out from the steps under her feet, pouring into Ye Chu's body with a lightning speed.

With her eyes narrowing slightly, Ye Chu felt that this breath was full of vitality, turning into a warm current, swimming around in her body, flowing through her flesh, bones, and meridians, and finally appeared in her dantian, merging with the cyclone in her dantian. Nourished by this warm airflow, Ye Chu seemed to have taken a hot bath, his whole body was comfortable, and the fatigue of his whole body was suddenly swept away.

Ye Chu moved her body slightly, clenched her fist slightly, and punched out, confirming that the enhancement of her body's strength was not an illusion. Ye Chu groaned for a moment, could it be that this vibrant breath is the reward after passing the level?!

This step not only has a mysterious space, which can hone swordsmanship, but also can condense the divine sense and polish the body, no matter what other people's gains are, for Ye Chu, it is full of surprises, only this road to the sky, this secret realm trial is worth the trip!

Step by step, step by step, step after step, carefully experiencing this increasingly powerful coercion, Ye Chu's waist was straight, and her eyes were getting brighter and brighter, "...... One hundred and ninety-eight, one hundred and ninety-nine! ”

Difficult! Hard! It's very hard!

Retreating to the steps of the one hundred and ninety-eighth floor, Ye Chu frowned deeply. There are two light people in this layer of space, and their strength is much stronger than the previous light people. But this is not a problem, the problem is that in the face of two enemies with high strength, it is difficult for Ye Chu to control the strength in his hands, either cut off their hands and feet, or directly kill them, which is not what Ye Chu wants.

For Ye Chu, it is easy to hurt people, and it is not difficult to kill people. But when dealing with the enemy, it is a little difficult not to hurt or kill. This requires an accurate grasp of the force, speed, and angle of the shot. And in order to master this precise process, you need to understand every bit of your own strength down to the smallest detail. This understanding is not only the grasp of the strength and speed of the body, but also the understanding of the operation of the sword qi in the body.

Time passed little by little, and Ye Chu had already gone back and forth on these two steps several times. Her face was a little pale, sweat oozed from her forehead, and her eyes were a little tired. Retreating to the one hundred and ninety-eighth step again, Ye Chu let out a long breath, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and cultivated the "Divine Concentration Technique" to make up for the consumption of divine sense.

In this way, he continued to step, retreat, and cultivate, and the cycle went on and on, Ye Chu's sword-like sharp momentum was fading little by little, and his temperament became warmer. The whole person is like a sword in its sheath, with a restrained edge and no danger at all. But the most threatening moment of the sword is when the sword is not unsheathed and the edge is not visible.

I don't remember the first time I stepped on the one hundred and ninety-ninth steps, Ye Chu entered the familiar dark space again, and once again faced the combined attack of the two light people, the sword in Ye Chu's hand did not have a great wind, but just stabbed out silently. But her sword is even more cold and dangerous. This situation shows that the strength on Ye Chu's sword is extremely restrained, and it has not leaked at all. A quarter of an hour, half an hour, an hour...... It wasn't until Ye Chu felt that such a battle was no longer enough to help her continue to improve, so she quickly took out her sword, and a sword swept through the neck of a light man, piercing the throat of another light man.

The light was scattered, and the piercing pain in her heart also faded, and on the one hundred and ninety-ninth step, Ye Chu opened her eyes, her eyes were dark and deep, shining, like the night sky, embracing the stars. A flash of excitement flashed in her eyes, Ye Chu was quite satisfied, she did it, although there were still some flaws, but her was indeed infinitely close to the realm of subtlety!

This kind of tangible improvement in strength made Ye Chu's excited body tremble slightly, making her look forward to the space of the steps on this road to heaven even more.

After taking a few deep breaths to calm the excitement in her heart, Ye Chu took a step forward violently, and her feet stepped on the two hundredth steps.

As the surging pressure on this step pressed down, the sword qi in Ye Chu's body worked rapidly, resisting this sudden pressure on his own. The surging aura of vitality reappeared and poured into Ye Chu's body.

"Bang!" There was a dull sound from the inside of Ye Chu's body, and with this muffled sound, the bones of her whole body also made a "crackling" sound, Ye Chu's divine sense looked inward, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the breath full of vitality flowed through her body, her flesh and blood became more compact, her bones glowed with a jade-like luster, and her meridians were more than doubled. After that, the vigorous vitality was injected into the dantian, and the cyclone in the dantian accelerated violently, and a large amount of heaven and earth vitality poured in, and a drop of liquid loomed in the center of the cyclone.
