Chapter 834: Climbing the Stairs (2nd Watch)
Cold, dead silent, majestic, majestic...
These complex and contradictory feelings came to Jun Yi's mind at this moment.
Jun Yi, who has always been able to maintain calm in the face of any situation, finally changed color in shock, trembling all over his body, and even in his heart, there was a sense of humility like an ant.
In front of these eyes, Jun Yi couldn't give birth to any pride in his heart, and all his confidence turned into nothingness.
"Smack..."
The huge door opened wide and slammed into the walls of the palace.
The loud and deep sound made the majestic eyes close again, as if they were illusions, and dissipated, which also made Jun Yi wake up from this shock.
"Whew, whew..."
Jun Yi gasped heavily, his chest rose and fell violently, just in this short breath, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and there was even more cold sweat on his forehead.
Standing in front of the palace gate, the Heavenly Punishment Saint looked back sideways.
When looking at Jun Yi, there was no contempt in his majestic and peaceful eyes, but he was still a little satisfied: "But just a mortal spirit can withstand this coercion." ”
"You, very good. ”
Hearing this, Jun Yi shook his head with a pale face, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't know whether he couldn't help but react, or subconsciously wanted to smile bitterly.
He never imagined that he was already so embarrassed that he would be praised as... Not bad!?
But he didn't feel that the Heavenly Punishment Saint was making fun of himself, because he could hear the seriousness of his words, and the satisfaction from the heart.
It took a while for Jun Yi to come to his senses and bring himself back to his composure.
But the majestic feeling that came out when he opened the door just now, the huge impact on his mind, still lingered in his heart.
Jun Yi took a deep breath and stared at the Heavenly Punishment Saint: "What is that?"
"Eligibility. ”
After the Heavenly Punishment Saint glanced at Jun Yi, he turned to face the palace directly, his figure was tall, he stepped out, and slowly walked in.
"Eligibility?"
Jun Yi was stunned, not quite understanding the meaning of the Heavenly Punishment Saint, but seeing that he didn't have anything to explain, he didn't ask more.
Like the Heavenly Punishment Saint, he also followed him into the palace and entered the palace.
Stepping into the palace, the scene in front of him was a little unexpected by Jun Yi.
There are no magnificent decorations, no majestic representatives, only ethereal wisps of white mist, like a cloud fairyland, hazy.
The Heavenly Punishment Saint was similar to knowing the situation inside, and did not pause, and continued to go deeper, Jun Yi also followed behind him, walking towards the depths of the palace.
After a hundred steps, Jun Yi and the Heavenly Punishment Saint finally stopped.
The two stood side by side, both looking at the white mist in front of them, and in the haze they could faintly see the whitening steps paved, leading up to the depths of the thick clouds.
The Heavenly Punishment Saint looked sideways slightly, the majesty on his face was still there, but the friendly look in Jun Yi's eyes was much richer than just now: "From here, you need to go by yourself." ”
Hearing this, Jun Yi's expression was solemn.
He didn't ask what was up there, or what he would face.
Perhaps, as the Holy Ministers of Heavenly Punishment said, what exists in the depths of the thick clouds is the master who opened the door just now and opened his eyes and looked down at him.
Although Jun Yi didn't know what the "qualifications" of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Ministers were, he didn't know what he represented behind him.
However, this should be the test before obtaining the "qualification".
The two glanced at each other, Jun Yi nodded slowly, and then stared at the whitening steps in front of him, then stepped out and stood firmly on the top of the steps.
"Boom!"
In an instant, Jun Yi's complexion changed suddenly, and he only felt that there was a majestic coercion surging together, as if it was a torrent pouring down from the Nine Heavens, and it was heavily poured on his back.
This majestic pressure made Jun Yi's upright body sink suddenly, and he directly bent down, and his bent knees almost fell to the ground.
Jun Yi's pale face was bruised, and his breathing became difficult, as if he was carrying a piece of sky, an immeasurable heaviness, which was not at all an existence that he could bear.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Punishment Saint also showed a melancholy on his majestic face, but more than that, there was a hopeless sigh.
This is just the beginning, just one step up, Jun Yi has already become like this, it really makes him unable to see the hope of reaching the top, and even the word slim has become a luxury that cannot be described.
"Ka, Kaka..."
Jun Yi couldn't stop drinking in his mouth, the bones in his body trembled, and there were bursts of numbing "rattling" sounds between the squeezes, as if his body would break at any time.
Under such heavy pressure, Jun Yi's eyes were still bright, and there was a belief in his heart that supported him not to give up.
He didn't know where this road leads, and he doesn't know what this road means, but Jun Yi knows that the Heavenly Punishment Holy Ministers will never harm themselves, and if he doesn't go to see it, maybe he will be tormented in remorse for the rest of his life.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey..."
Jun Yi grinned with a twitch, raised his head tremblingly, stared at the second step in front of him, and actually raised his foot again and stepped on it.
"Click..."
As soon as one foot landed on the steps, a crisp sound of bones cracking could be heard, echoing through the palace, rising and falling in the ears of Jun Yi and the Heavenly Punishment Saint.
Jun Yi's face twitched, and his grinning mouth became stiff, but he didn't retract it, but raised his other foot viciously and stepped on it heavily.
In an instant, Jun Yi's body sank suddenly, his leg bones were almost cracked, and he squatted down directly, but he still trembled and persevered, and even stabilized his figure.
"Oh, it's just... That's it..."
Jun Yi grinned and opened his mouth slightly, the moment the words fell, his eyes burst out with amazing brilliance, and his body seemed to be full of endless power, and he stepped on the third step suddenly.
"Boom!"
But the violent pressure came surgingly, and there was no room for Jun Yi to struggle, so he supported his hands on the ground, bent his elbows, and knelt directly on the steps.
But even so, it still failed to stop his belief in moving forward, and even the gaze in his eyes became brighter and brighter.
Under the gradually solemn gaze of the Heavenly Punishment Saint, Jun Yi slowly stretched out his hand, and continued to climb towards the fourth step in front of him.
As he climbed up the steps, he was already beyond Jun Yi's imagination, directly pressing his hands and legs into the whitened steps, spreading out large traces of fragmentation, like spider webs, densely packed.
The majestic weight fell on Jun Yi's back, almost making his breathing subtle, but he still insisted on stretching out his trembling hand and crawling forward.
Little by little, step by step, he climbed another level.
The whitened steps crumbled, and blood flowed from Jun Yi's palms and knees, staining the crushed stones under him like cobwebs as he crawled.
Even the blood was still flowing down the cracks in the rubble, gradually dripping down the first steps, flowing to the feet of the Heavenly Punishment Saint, making his white shoes wrapped in a circle of blood.
Looking at the blood, the eyes of the Heavenly Punishment Saint were engraved with blood marks left by Jun Yi as he crawled.
Looking at the blood, the solemnity in his eyes deepened, and even a little respect appeared on his majestic face.
Jun Yi crawled with such difficulty, from kneeling, to leaning over, until the end, his whole body was embedded in the Runyu steps, and it was precisely because of this that he climbed to the eighth step, only half a hand away from the ninth step.
At this moment, his eyes were gray, his expression was empty, and his consciousness was already on the verge of collapse, but the only remaining will was still supporting him to move forward and climb the ninth step.
Even if he is at the end of his crossbow, he can still see in his eyes that there are no steps on this ninth step, only a layer of shallow lines, which means that he is close to success, and he is within reach.
But it was this success that made him unable to even stretch out his hand under the pressure, as if he was close to the end of the world.
Offstage, even the majestic and calm Heavenly Punishment Saint Minister, his hands were already tightly clenched, and his seemingly calm face was twitching slightly, obviously even he pinched a cold sweat for Jun Yi.
Suddenly, his pupils staring at Jun Yi suddenly condensed, and the trembling skin and flesh on his body all stopped abruptly, as if the whole person had fallen into a still, no longer moving.
I saw that on the stage, Jun Yi struggled to get up, and he had already let his two arms reach into the range of the ninth step.
However, there was no trace of flesh and blood on these two arms, and what was exposed was actually a white bone, but even so, he was still struggling forward, as if he didn't know the pain.
An inch enters, an inch turns into a bone.
When Jun Yi's whole person entered the ninth step, his whole body turned into white bones, and he crawled quietly on the ground, as if he had died.
The big hand it stretched out first was pressing on the pattern in the center of the steps.
"Whew..."
At the bottom of the steps, seeing Jun Yi's Heavenly Punishment Saint in such a state, he was stunned for a long time with his mouth half-open, and then he came back to his senses and exhaled softly.
The gaze that appeared in his eyes was full of incredulity: "He actually climbed the ninth step?
"Hum..."
At the same time, the palace trembled slightly, and the thick clouds that floated and flowed all stood still, and turned to the wind and clouds, like a long river, and hung upside down towards the ninth step.
In a moment's time, the entire ninth staircase turned into a white expanse, and nothing could be seen clearly, and Jun Yi disappeared without a trace.
Seeing this, the face of the Heavenly Punishment Saint returned to calm, and he returned to his original majestic appearance, standing silently on the armrest, but it is unknown whether his heart is also so calm.
Time passed, and the clouds gradually shrank.
In a short time, the thick clouds on the ninth step disappeared, and in its place, there was a figure, sitting on it with a warm face, floating in the void, this person was Jun Yi.
At this moment, he is no longer covered with white bones, not only is he covered with flesh and blood, but he has not even fallen off his clothes, so that his body will not be exposed.
At the same time, the aura on his body was restrained, and even the sense of vanity that had just broken through the realm of the early stage of the Martial Emperor was completely gone.
Faintly, there are still some deep and ethereal feelings, and even the Heavenly Punishment Saint stares at it, and he unconsciously has a strong sense of awe.
This feeling, instead of making the Heavenly Punishment Saint's face solemn, made the light in his eyes full of joy.
"Hum..."
Suddenly, the white light on Jun Yi's body, who was sitting in the void, overflowed with a strong aura of majesty, and there was a sense of holiness that made people surrender.
When I opened my eyes, there was more contradictory affinity and indifference in my warm eyes.
makes his eyes look at everything as if he is looking at an ant, without half emotion, but it can't help but give birth to a sense of affinity, which is very strange.
