Chapter 114: A Blessing in Disguise
It didn't take long for Ling Zheng and Qian Heng to be one step away, and Ling Zheng raised his foot and stepped on. However, at this moment, Qian Heng made a move, he raised his hand and pushed towards Ling Zheng with a palm, this palm was not fast, if it was in normal times, even a guy who refined his mind would be able to open more. But at this time, Ling Zheng couldn't hide at all, because he couldn't retreat, and if he took a step back, he would be pulled to the top of the mountain by the power of the mountain road, which meant that the Spirit Yin Sect had lost this bet. Ling Zheng could only choose to resist hard, and the result of hard resistance was that both sides lost, and in the end, Wu Lingzong won, because Ling Zheng was half a step behind Qian Heng.
"Despicable, shameless. At the top of the mountain, the sounds of disturbance came out, as well as the angry scolding of Qianhan.
"Shameless, it's not as good as using such a bad move. Raleigh also noticed it at this time, his face changed slightly, and he scolded He Nan.
"Hehe, as long as I win, it doesn't matter what method I use. He Nan smiled happily, with a hint of pride in his eyes, no matter how powerful your hole cards are, Lao Tzu will not let you play its due strength.
Just when everyone was worried about Ling Zheng, Ling Zheng's expression remained unchanged, and even the corners of his mouth hooked a trace of mockery, did he think that he would be able to push himself down in this way. Under the incredulous gaze of everyone, Ling Zheng raised his hand to catch Qian Heng's gaze, and then pulled back, Qian Heng's body was pulled down by him in an instant, and he didn't have any power to resist at all.
Qian Heng's face changed drastically, he didn't expect Ling Zheng's physical strength to be so strong, his eyes became more and more ruthless, his other hand was raised, and then he grabbed Ling Zheng's arm tightly, wanting to take Ling Zheng away together. It was really a wave of unsettled waves, and everyone's hearts that had just fallen were instantly suspended again, and at this time, being held by Qian Heng, Ling Zheng thought that it was not so easy to break away.
"It's shameless. Qian Han scolded angrily, with a hint of worry in her eyes, her little fists clenched, if Qian Heng was in front of her, she must have punched him countless times and beat him into a pig's head.
"Originally, I thought that the Lingyin Sect should win, but I didn't expect it to become like this, but now the Lingyin Sect is hanging. "There are also people who gloat, waiting to see the appearance of a good show.
Ling Zheng smiled coldly, just because he also wanted to pull himself along, it was a dream, his fists were clenched, and a force on his arm burst out, Qian Heng's body was shaken open in an instant, as if he had been hit by a train, and flew up the mountain under the traction of that inexplicable force.
Without looking at Qian Heng more, he walked towards the front again, and soon reached the fifty-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, which was another class. As long as he stepped on the 60,000 steps, Ling Zheng would be able to surpass the records of his predecessors, of course, not the highest record of climbing the stone steps, but the highest record of the disciples of the sect climbing the stone steps. In history, the highest disciple of the sect who climbed the stone steps was 59,999 steps, and did not step on the 60,000 steps.
Ling Zheng didn't stop, didn't even have any reaction, still maintained his previous state, and stepped on it in one step. Ling Zheng stepped on the top of the stone steps, feeling as if countless bombs had exploded under his feet, trying to lift him out, and the spiritual power around him swarmed in, squeezing his body, trying to squash him.
Ling Zheng stepped on it, and then his foot seemed to have taken root, and he didn't shake it for a moment, and the other foot also stepped up. With both feet completely stepping on the stone steps, Ling Zheng felt the multiplied pressure and the power of the shock under his feet, and a faint smile appeared on his face, this stone step still has such benefits, no wonder even if it is so difficult to walk, those sect masters and elders have to take this stone step to give it a try.
The bottom 20,000 floors of this stone staircase do not have any pressure, and it is completely possible to walk up with physical strength. But after reaching the 20,000th floor, there is already a spiritual pressure on this stone step, and this spiritual pressure may come from this mountain peak, or it may come from heaven and earth, and there is an extremely special power hidden in it. This power will be absorbed by the person's body, and begin to nourish the person's body, and even affect the spiritual power in the body, making it more refined.
At first, it may not be too obvious, and it is difficult to feel it, but after reaching the 50,000th level, this power will become stronger, and you can already clearly feel it, and its effect is also reflected. Naturally, this power does not depend on the length of time, but to walk a level to obtain a trace, not that you can get endless power by staying on that level. As for whether they have gone again, it is not clear, they can only ask those sect masters and elders, they have already gone two or three times, or even more.
Reaching the 50,000th level is a stage, but after reaching the 60,000th level, Ling Zheng can feel that this power is not only getting stronger and stronger, but also hiding another ethereal thing, but he doesn't know what it can consolidate the human realm. Ling Zheng was naturally pleased, his strength had risen too fast during this period of time, and his realm had long been unable to keep up, and now that this stone step had such benefits, it was like someone sent a pillow to him when he was sleepy.
Ling Zheng stood there, absorbing that power, and then refining it, before slowly walking towards it. Before the 60,000th Order, that power didn't need to be absorbed and refined at all, and after entering your body, it was directly integrated into your body, because it was too weak. Only when it reaches the 60,000th level, this power gradually increases, and it needs to be absorbed and refined, otherwise it will not be able to absorb it at once, and it will step on the next level, which is a very wasteful behavior.
After taking a step, he stopped to absorb and refine that power, the speed was neither fast nor slow, and a whole day passed before he reached the sixty-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, and Ling Zheng's face turned a little pale at this time. It's not tired, it's not oppressed, it's excited, and after this day, his realm is completely consolidated, and it's not impossible to even go further. In fact, this is the benefit of Ling Zheng's Xuan Body, the power that others can absorb is definitely less than one-tenth of his, because the physique is not good, most of that power is automatically used to change their physique, and there are not many that can be absorbed for cultivation.
Even so, the improvement of their physique also brought them a faster cultivation speed, which was naturally a great thing. If it weren't for the fact that this period of time was the beginning of the battle to seize the sky, countless people could be seen climbing on this stone step every day, but most of them were some casual cultivators, and there were not many masters in casual cultivation, generally at the stage of forty or fifty thousand steps.
Without further ado, Ling Zheng had already reached the sixty-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth rank, and those sect masters were only about five thousand steps above him. However, there are only one or two fewer people, and the strength of the rest of the people should be about the same, and the biggest difference is about two hundred steps, as for the one who is at the forefront is Qian Han's father, Han Lishan, the sect leader of the Phantom Spirit Sect, more than seventy-five thousand and one hundred steps. And his wife Yu Qianqian had already gone up the mountain, and when she had only reached the 70,000 steps, she was too tired and boring, so she gave up moving forward. The second was the Sect Master of the Holy Spirit Sect, who had just stepped on the seventy-five thousand steps, and the rest of the people were following him.
Absorbing the inexplicable power on the stone steps, Ling Zheng raised his foot and stepped on the seventy thousand steps, and when he stepped down, he felt that the sky was falling apart. Ling Zheng's body shook slightly, and a terrifying anti-shock force struck, and he felt as if he was stepping on a volcano, as if he was about to steam his whole body. Ling Zheng finally knew why those sect masters' originally pale faces turned red after stepping on the seventy thousand steps, presumably because of this stone step.
In the expectant gaze of everyone, Ling Zheng finally stood firm, and the other foot also stepped up, standing firmly on both feet, and a scorching heat rushed directly into his body from his feet. This scorching breath is not harmful to people, on the contrary, it has a lot of benefits, and it is a tonic for Ling Zheng. Having said that, after this breath rushed into his body, it was filled with his entire body in an instant, scorching his body, and an unbearable pain came from his body, threatening to drown his reason. If he could, Ling Zheng would like to find a pile of firewood and see if he could make a fire with two breaths.
Ling Zheng almost jumped up, forcibly endured the pain in his body, and slowly began to absorb the inexplicable power on the stone steps in his body, this power became stronger and stronger, he didn't need to look for it at all, he could feel it standing there. At this moment, a cold aura in Ling Zheng's body flowed out from everywhere, entangled with the scorching aura that rushed into his body, and the temperature on Ling Zheng's body dropped in an instant. I have to say that Ling Zheng's luck is extremely good, this breath is the power absorbed in that cold pool when he first met Xiao Liang. The two breaths were entangled with each other, and finally all of them merged into Ling Zheng's physique and turned into his strength.
Ling Zheng's face was happy, he naturally felt it, and after absorbing the inexplicable power in the air for a moment, Ling Zheng raised his feet and walked up a step again. This time, when the scorching breath hit, there was no cold aura gushing out of his body, presumably it had been consumed before. However, it is probably because of the preparation, or the experience of once, the body has developed some resistance, but it is not as terrible as before.
Walking towards the front step by step, Ling Zheng felt that his physique was getting stronger and stronger, and if he continued like this, he might be able to go to the next level. Thinking secretly in his heart, Ling Zheng still took a step and stopped for a moment to absorb and decompose the inexplicable power. When Ling Zheng walked up the stone steps of seventy-five thousand, there were only eight people in front of him, namely the sect masters of the five sects, and three people, and they didn't know which sect's elder or sect's sect master. As for the others, when they were more than seventy-seven or eight thousand steps, they gave up moving forward one by one and did not force them forward.
