Chapter 44: Unbearable Memories
Lin An couldn't help frowning when he heard the warning of the old man in white under the cloud ladder, and muttered the old man's words again, "The way against the sky, if you turn back, you will die?"
It means that no matter what, you can't retreat from the ladder, and if you retreat, the trial will end directly, and you will die. Lin An lowered his head and thought about it.
According to what the old man in white said, Lin An put aside all doubts and firmly believed that there must be something on top of this cloud ladder. It's just that his height has not yet arrived. So that test is yet to come.
"Let's go up and have a look!" Lin An said as he looked up at the seemingly endless ladder to heaven.
......
256th floor.
"Whew..."Lin An gasped heavily, he was already feeling a little tired at this time. After all, Lin An's soul body has not been exercised, so he is just an ordinary person. An ordinary person can go up to more than two hundred layers in one breath, which is already very powerful.
If it weren't for the fact that the soul body couldn't sweat, then the current Lin An would definitely be sweating profusely and sweating profusely.
"Really... Whew, it's really fake" Lin An gasped and said slowly: "I haven't reached the test yet, I'm afraid I'm going to be tired to death if I don't get to the test if I continue like this." This damn ladder to heaven is too long. ”
Lin An looked down, and everything became smaller, like looking at ants under his feet. If a person who is afraid of heights climbs such a high place, I am afraid that his feet will be weak.
At this time, Lin An could no longer see the old man in white. Only the pieces of immortal ponds were located in every corner of Lin An's line of sight irregularly. Lin An couldn't help but think suspiciously, why do you want to set up so many immortal pools?
But Lin An didn't think much about it, it was just a hobby of the old man in white at that time. Then, he turned his attention to the ladder. After all, the most important thing now is to get the crystal beads on the ladder that can change your life against the sky, and continue your meridians.
After Lin An rested for a while, he continued to take steps and went up to the higher part of the ladder.
"Whew~Whew~"
Lin An kept breathing heavily, and slowly Lin An found a sense of rhythm, and his breathing also followed that sense of rhythm. In this way, you can save your physical strength.
In the process of climbing the ladder to heaven, he was surprised to find that his soul body continued to become more condensed, and his breath became more stable and long.
This change made Lin An a little excited. Methods that can exercise the soul are relatively rare, and many large families tend to fight for a secret book that can exercise the soul. Because the growth of the soul will bring a lot of benefits to the warrior.
For example, soul growth can withstand overwhelming soul attacks. Not only that, the benefits brought by the soul can affect the achievements of a martial artist's life, and generally the world's top powerhouses will exercise their souls.
Even some martial artists majored in souls. Although the power of the soul in the early stage is mostly only an internal effect. But when the soul is cultivated to a certain level, it can be turned into substance, and the power it causes is no worse than that of the Force. And silently, killing people invisibly. And the orbit is elusive, and at this point even more super-Force.
However, this kind of is still too far away from the current Lin An, after all, those old monsters who specialize in cultivating souls have cultivated to such a high level. It could be thousands or tens of thousands of years old. And Lin An's current martial arts are just getting started.
Although this growth is very slow, Lin An is still very excited. After all, he was only here for trial, and his soul was unexpectedly increased, which was equivalent to picking up an unexpected treasure.
However, although the soul has been growing, it is still far from keeping up with the speed of physical exertion.
683rd floor.
Lin An only felt that his legs were as stiff as wood, and he was basically climbing up with a conscious instinct in his brain. For an ordinary person, this high altitude has already reached that limit.
"Eh, I'm so tired. I really want to get some sleep. ”
Lin An only felt that his eyelids were heavy, but he knew that he couldn't fall asleep at this time.
After speaking, Lin An continued to move his legs and continued to climb upward.
751st ......
A hunchbacked figure, climbing up step by step.
889th Floor......
In mid-air, a figure was like a walking corpse, mechanically climbing upwards step by step.
Layer 998.
A figure had no expression, his eyes were hollow, and his face was extremely pale. It looks like a depleted puppet. Only the faint gasping sound between his noses could tell that he was still alive. This person is Lin An.
Lin An only felt that his brain was blank now, and his legs seemed to have been sawed, and he couldn't feel it at all. The muscles in other places were as stiff as stones.
Lin An looked up with difficulty, and the ladder to the sky was still so boundless, and there was no end in sight. Lin An's eyes flickered, as if he couldn't see any hope.
Lowering his head, Lin An gritted his teeth, ready to raise his legs and continue walking. His right foot struggled to climb the 999th staircase in slow motion. At this time, his left foot seemed to be embedded with the steps, and he couldn't pull it out. His already extreme body suddenly lost its balance and fell to the ground.
"Whew~, it's good to lie down all the time. ”
At this time, Lin An was exhausted, and he didn't even have the strength to get up. He just wanted to lie quietly now.
"I want to sleep!"
Lin An muttered. The eyelids grew heavier and heavier, slowly closing.
......
On the ground, the old man in white looked up at the ladder to heaven, his eyes were like torches, piercing through the layers of voids, and when he saw Lin An who had fallen on the ninth hundred and ninety-eighth floor, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It really surprised me to be able to break into such a height with such a weak soul body. Although the ladder of heaven will limit the energy of the trialist's soul body to a certain extent, it is the first time I have seen a soul like yours who have never exercised at all. ”
"Eh" The corners of the old man's originally kind face suddenly hooked a hideous arc, and he muttered: "Since you can't get the wheel of fortune for me, then make the best use of your soul and turn it into fertilizer here." Boom"
......
In the stone cave, the nightmare that was breathing suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight at Lin An, who was wilting at an extremely fast speed at this time. At this rate, it won't be long before Lin An will die completely.
"Eh, did I make the wrong decision?" said Nightmare, looking at Lin An, whose breath was rapidly declining, and muttered.
He didn't tell him about this evil exercise. But when he saw Lin An's expression that life was worse than death, he still told him about "Dead Yan".
Nightmare shook his head helplessly, and then with a wave of his hand, an extremely pure soul light shot into Lin An's brain. When that soul light cluster was emitted, the nightmare aura also instantly withered, and the figure slowly became blurred. That ball of light was almost a little bit of strength he had recovered in the past few years.
At this time, Lin An had been cultivating for more than a month.
"Since it is a soul test, it is nothing more than a test of your soul strength and will. Since your soul strength is not good, you can only rely on evoking memories in your heart that can stimulate your will. The strength of the soul is limited, but the soul willpower is unlimited!" Nightmare looked at Lin An and said. He has already done everything he should do, and the rest can only rely on Lin An himself.
......
In a sea of black oppression, a figure kept sinking downward. However, at this time, Lin An quietly looked upward, allowing his body to continue to sink. He was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to move a finger.
At this moment, a ball of light was speeding forward in the sea.
After a while, he found Lin An and quickly approached him. When the light group creeps, the surrounding environment also changes dramatically.
Lin An also felt the changes in the surrounding environment. There are blue skies, white clouds, lush forests, everything is full of life. The most important thing is that a handsome man is teaching a beautiful and slim girl to cultivate. Not far away, on a rock, a very beautiful woman was lazily flipping through a book. From time to time, I would catch a glimpse of the father and son and smile lightly.
Lin An's eyes instantly moistened, because it was no one else, but the home that Lin An once owned!
"Uncle, aunt, Qing'er. Lin An's voice trembled, and a tear kept sliding down his cheek, muttering.
"Hmph, Dad, I don't want to learn anymore, it's too difficult, I'm going to play!" Lin Qing'er rolled her eyes and couldn't help complaining.
Turned around and was about to leave. As a result, his gaze was exactly opposite to Lin An's.
"Dad, Brother Lin An, you're back. ”
Just as Lin Qing'er turned her head to tell her father with a happy face, an emotionless hand pierced Lin Qing'er's chest in Lin An's stunned. And the person who made the shot was Lin Qing'er's father Lin Ming, and a halo appeared on his forehead at this time.
In Lin An's eyes, it was very dazzling, he knew that it was the sign of zero!
