Chapter Twenty-Eight: Life is a Chess, I Wish to Be a Pawn!
When he stepped on the stone steps, something didn't feel right!
Heavy!
A coercion suddenly pressed on his body, and he felt hundreds of times heavier, like a mountain pressing on him, making it difficult for him to move an inch!
"Forbidden?"
Xiao Lang's eyes shrank, such coercion was definitely comparable to the coercion of the Heavenly Emperor, but it was extremely strange that the stone steps and the mountain did not have the slightest feature of prohibiting activation, and it felt that there was such a great coercion on this stone step.
He turned his head with difficulty, glanced at the old man with long eyebrows, and saw that he didn't react at all, as if he was asleep, so he could only grit his teeth helplessly and raise his legs to climb up.
Although this coercion is very great, although every step is very difficult, Xiao Lang can barely bear it. He gritted his teeth and climbed up like a snail trying to climb a tree.
Sweat was pouring into the rain, every muscle in his body was trembling slightly, and his legs were trembling faintly, but Xiao Lang's gaze was extremely firm. He had a kind of realization in his heart, it seemed... If he couldn't climb this stone staircase, maybe he wouldn't be able to meet him, after all, he didn't owe him anything anymore.
100 stone steps, 1,000 steps, 10,000 steps!
Xiao Lang, who could have jumped up the 10,000-step stone steps in the blink of an eye, walked for half an hour, his steps became slower and slower, his back became more and more rickety, and his legs trembled more and more, but... His gaze was still extremely firm, and his footsteps did not pause!
Xiao Lang had already walked around the stone steps of the mountain three times, his body was already thousands of meters away from the foot of the mountain, and his body had become a little small from below, much like a snail climbing around a big tree.
His back couldn't stand up at all, he didn't have to walk anymore, but crawled with both hands and feet, obviously the strong coercion made him unable to resist, and he was afraid that he would roll down directly if he continued to walk on his feet.
At this moment, the mountain slave below suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were still cloudy, but if you look closely, you will find that his eyes are as deep as the sea, like a vast starry sky.
He slowly glanced up at Xiao Lang and whispered: "The fourth level of the Heavenly Demon Combat Technique? I'm afraid that this strength can go up to 60,000 or 70,000 steps, right? Hmph! The Heavenly Emperor can only climb more than 100,000 steps, and this kid actually wants to climb to the top? I'm afraid that only the Supreme Heavenly Emperor can have this strength, right? Why did the palace master give such a strange order? Could this kid be able to climb up? How is it possible?"
At last he laughed to himself, shook his head noncommittally, and closed his eyes again.
Xiao Lang continued to climb, and after more than an hour, his body finally stopped. He climbed 50,000 steps! When he climbed 50,000 steps, he suddenly found that the pressure was doubled!
At that moment, his body was almost directly shocked and rolled down by the great pressure, but fortunately, his hands suddenly became forceful and grabbed deeply into the stone steps, and at the same time, his body was completely attached to the stone steps, so he didn't fall...
He glanced up at the bottom of the mountain with difficulty, roughly judged, and smiled bitterly.
At the moment, he has only climbed a third of the way, and this third is only a third of the submerged in the clouds, who knows if there are any stone steps after the submerged?
He suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, he could only be qualified to meet the Palace Master of the Maze Palace if he climbed above the clouds. It felt very strange, it suddenly rang in his head, but it made him believe it incredibly.
Now it's only 50,000 steps, and if he climbs above the clouds, doesn't that mean that there are still 100,000 steps? How can he climb it? Now the coercion has doubled! If he goes up another 50,000 steps, the coercion will double again, I'm afraid he won't be able to move his body if he wants to, right?
No, never give up!
Xiao Lang's heart became firm again!
His limbs squirmed again, and each time he grabbed into the stone steps with both hands, his body completely attached to the stone steps, and he moved up with great difficulty. His speed was even slower, his whole body was wet with sweat, his muscles were trembling, but he never stopped crawling.
One hour, three hours, in the night, he still circled up like a snail.
Four hours, five hours, eight hours, the eastern sky lit up with a hint of fish's belly white, and dawn broke!
The morning light sprinkled all over the entire Allure Mountain, sprinkled on the road of the day, sprinkled on Xiao Lang who was bleeding from his hands and legs, sprinkled on a blood stain behind him, sprinkled on his incomparably weak but extremely firm eyes, it was so shocking, so... Peerless!
Shoushan Nu opened his eyes again and glanced at Xiao Lang, his eyes showed a trace of astonishment, and then he shook his head and sighed lightly: "Hmm... There are more than 90,000 steps, and this son's temperament is not bad, ruthless and firm enough! It's a pity that his strength is a little worse! But he can go up to 100,000 steps, and it's good to look at the world. ”
Shoushan Nu closed his eyes again, Xiao Lang was not sure, but he knew very well that this step did double every 50,000 steps, even if Xiao Lang could climb 100,000 steps?
An hour and a half later!
Xiao Lang finally climbed the 100,000 steps, but he spurted a mouthful of blood, and his whole body, including his head, was stuck to the stone steps, like a dead corpse, unable to move!
The coercion has doubled again!
Not to mention moving his hands and feet, it is difficult for him to even breathe at the moment, and it takes him a lot of effort to breathe every time...
Can't get up?
Regardless of whether he can climb up or not, at least Xiao Lang understands very well that he continues to move towards the top, I am afraid that he may be crushed to death by the coercion of Longda in the end!
There are 50,000 steps to go!
Xiao Lang was roaring silently in his heart, he already knew very well that this was the palace master of the Labyrinth Palace who was testing him. The information that was inexplicably surging in his heart was most likely quietly transmitted by the Palace Master of the Maze Palace using his powerful divine powers.
In other words... The palace master of the Labyrinth Palace was clearly telling him that if he wanted to see him, he had to climb 150,000 steps, otherwise Xiao Lang would go back and forth!
He is not even qualified to meet in person? What other qualifications does he have to beg him to save Duguxing?
Go back! You're going to die!
Another voice in his mind kept ringing, Xiao Lang's mind was a little confused because of the lack of oxygen, he didn't know whether he should go in or retreat!
How much more can you climb?
Do you want to leave the North Hell? It's just... How should he face Xiao Qingyi's hopeful eyes?
"No, I won't retreat! If life is a chess, I am willing to be a pawn, although the action is slow, but who... You've seen me take a step back!"
Xiao Lang roared with all his might, his eyes began to glow red, the grass vines suddenly roared out, and the millions of doppelgangers condensed into one, first turning into phantoms and flying up hundreds of steps, and one remaining next to his body. Finally, the top section pierced into the stairs and turned into a solid body, and the grass vine shrank, and his body was dragged up alive!
This speed was very fast, but Xiao Lang's whole body was pressed against the stone steps, and under such friction, his whole body became bloody. The strong coercion made it difficult for him to breathe, and his mind gradually blurred, but the obsession in his mind frantically controlled the grass vines to drag him towards the top of the mountain at a rapid pace, often hundreds of stone steps in the blink of an eye...
"This kid..."
The mountain guard slave below suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of disbelief, he had never stood up, he stood up abruptly, and even his rickety back straightened. The cloudy eyes were even more shining, and the two long eyebrows were erected, turning into two long swords and piercing the sky!
