Chapter 626: Seeking Strength
It's scary, it's a tough road, but I'm going to keep going.
I can't let my friend die in vain, watching Lao Qin being engulfed in black flames, seeing Zhang Shu being burned to ashes, and seeing Xiao Lie sacrifice himself to save me.
This tragic scene is constantly stimulating my heart at the moment, I am just facing the catastrophe, what do I have to be afraid of?
"I'm going to deal with the Apocalypse, tell me what to do?" I looked at the Guardian of the Plane, and I had made up my mind.
"Have you figured it out? Once you accept the catastrophe, there is no room for recovery! The Guardian of the Plane asked.
"I figured it out, no matter how difficult it was, I would make it!" I nodded, my eyes determined.
"Good! I admire you, you have dedicated the power of the god of war to the world. Now for the sake of the world, you have to become a god again and face the terrifying baptism of the heavenly calamity! Hopefully you can get what you want and defeat that terrifying foe! After the Guardian of the Plane finished speaking, he took me out of here with a wave of his big hand.
Leaving this bright space, the Guardian of the Plane led me to a mysterious place, a circular ring. Although this ring is not high, you can feel a majestic aura when you stand here, and this place is sacrosanct.
"I'm gone! The rest is up to you! The Guardian of the Plane didn't dare to stay longer, and immediately left here.
After the Guardian left, an illusory figure descended from the sky and landed in the ring in front of me. Although it was only an illusion, it emitted a divine aura that scared me.
The phantom looked at me and said with a cold expression, "Do you want to become a god?" ”
"That's right! I want to become a god! I want power, I want God's power! I replied.
"Excellent! Now that you're ready, take the first test! After speaking, the phantom disappeared, and in the ring in front of me, a staircase made of jade appeared, extending all the way to the sky.
I looked at this jade step, and it seemed that my first test was to pass the jade step. When I look at this step, it looks ordinary, but if you step on it, it will definitely not be so simple.
I took a deep breath and walked towards the jade steps, taking the first step.
When I stepped on it for the first time, I felt a strong pressure, as if it wanted to exclude me. This is a force that I am familiar with, the power that repels me from the other world, but the power here is much purer.
I gritted my teeth and continued to take a step upward, and with each step up, the pressure increased a lot. I walked up step by step, and just getting to the tenth step almost exhausted all my strength.
But I don't want to stop, I can't just fail like this, I keep moving forward. Relying on the strength of the Ancient Holy Body, I forcibly took a few more steps forward, and walked to the twentieth step in one breath.
By the time I got to the twentieth step, the strength was so strong that my bones trembled slightly. I looked up ahead, and there was still a long, long way to go before I had walked the steps.
I can't fall, I definitely can't fall under this test, it's just climbing a ladder, what do I have to be afraid of?
One-step! Two steps!
I continued to walk forward, slowly reaching the thirtieth step, and my heart began to beat faster. I did a rough math of the steps, and they were nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, and I hadn't even reached a fraction of them at the moment.
In this test, I must not fall, even if I have to die of exhaustion here, I must not be ejected.
If I can't walk up in one go, then I'll walk up slowly and get used to the oppression and repulsion here. My next step took me an hour before I finally stepped on it.
The thirty-first step!
Thirty-second steps!
Thirty-third step!
Although it was difficult to climb the 990 steps, I gradually discovered that the recovery speed in my body had increased.
This may be the effect of an oppressive force, and under such a strong oppressive force, my Desolate Saint will instinctively want to resist this force.
When these two forces restrain each other, my body will quickly recover the source qi to resist the increasingly powerful oppression. After a full month of staying on this ladder, I successfully reached the 333rd step, which was only a third of the way.
The remaining two-thirds of the journey will only be a hundred times more difficult than the one-third walked. No matter how difficult it may be, I am confident that with my Ancient Blessed Sacrament, I will be able to get through the rest of the journey.
Step 334!
Step 335!
Step 336!
This time, it took me three months to finally reach the 666th step, and the recovery speed in my body has nearly doubled compared to before.
It's not just my recovery speed, but also my strength, which may be an improvement under pressure. Just climbing the ladder can get such a good ascension, it's no wonder that so many people want to become gods.
I can't imagine what kind of power I would have if I survived the catastrophe and became a god again.
Six hundred and sixty-seven steps!
Six hundred and sixty-eight steps!
Six hundred and sixty-nine steps!
The next journey took me another half a year, and I finally came to the 999th step. There was only one last step left in front of me, and I could climb the entire jade ladder, but this step was extremely difficult.
I had to work hard with all my strength, but I was only one last step away, and I would never have stopped here. As I walked slowly, I felt like I was stuck in concrete, and it was difficult to move even the slightest.
But I didn't give up, even if it was a concrete floor, I had to move it slowly. It took me three days to take this last step, and my feet finally stepped on it.
Although I stepped on it, I had another foot, and if I wanted to step on it completely, I still had another foot left. I moved my feet as hard as I could, and it took me three more days to take this step.
When I stepped on this platform, all the pressure disappeared in an instant, and my whole body suddenly became relaxed. It's not just about becoming easy, it's about pouring a steady stream of qi into my body, which is the benefit I have gained after climbing the Heavenly Jade Ladder.
My recovery has improved more than fivefold, my strength has improved a lot, and although I haven't tested it in battle, I know very well that I have changed.
When I stepped onto the new platform, it was the same round ring here as it was below. I don't know who built this ring, but it exudes a lot of power, it should be a very rare and strong stone.
"Congratulations on passing the first test, the next second test, are you ready?" The divine apparition reappeared before my eyes, still the same as it stood aloft.
"I'm ready!" I held my head high, I wasn't scared by him, I came here to become a god!
