Chapter 324: Ascending the Tower 1

One last glance at the place where the armor guard had disappeared, Zhou Ran put all the props into his backpack, and then grabbed the handle of the water-splitting long knife and walked in the direction of the stairs.

That black dungeon limited treasure chest, he doesn't have the idea of opening it for the time being, there is a water dividing long knife is enough to deal with the vast majority of battles, and then open a treasure chest, the items that appear in it may not be able to be used now, and the treasure chest itself can be transformed into a phantom carried, which can reduce a lot of place and weight, in case it is opened from the treasure chest, a very precious, but at the same time very heavy and space-occupying props, it will definitely affect his next actions.

After a moment of this thought in his mind, he temporarily gave up the idea of opening the treasure chest, he continued to walk towards the top of the stairs, only walked 5 steps, Zhou Ran slowly stopped, he showed a slightly puzzled look on his face, then raised his foot, hesitated for a while, and then walked up to the 6th step.

Feeling the heavy pressure on his face, Zhou Ran slowly frowned, and sure enough, just like he thought, although he didn't know what the structure of this staircase was, and what method was used, but when he walked on it, he could feel the very, very obvious pressure, this pressure was extremely heavy, just when he went upstairs, he could feel it, and every time he went up, the intensity of the pressure would increase a lot, although it could not reach the degree of double, but it was almost one or two percent. It was only after he reached the sixth step that he felt that the pressure he felt was almost double that of the step he had just taken.

With his current strength of more than 30 points and 30 points of physique, this level of pressure is barely enough to be able to withstand it, but the problem is that the light of the red lines on his arm has not dissipated yet, and he can still vaguely see that the length of the entire staircase is more than 50 knots, if it is doubled according to this 5 steps, and in the end it will be 10 times, then he will definitely not be able to bear it.

But now he has completely turned around the hall on the first floor, there is nothing worth remembering, and there are no useful props and information, if you want to get information about leaving this building or even leaving this illusion, then you have to find a way to go up, because only after going up can you get more information.

While thinking about these Zhou Ran, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid qi, the remaining internal qi in his body had all been transformed by him into immortal and vajra characteristics, these two characteristics can increase the recovery speed of his internal qi, and at the same time greatly improve the defense ability of his body, don't look at the vajra can only be regarded as an entry-level characteristic among the many characteristics of Zen Buddhism, but if you only talk about pure defense ability, it can definitely rank among the many internal qi characteristics.

Although it is said that the defense power of him is about the same as that of the Mixed Element Internal Qi, the consumption of the Mixed Element Internal Qi is relatively large, if it is transformed into King Kong, it will not feel the internal qi exhausted even if it lasts for dozens of minutes, or even several hours.

The two kinds of internal qi complement each other, quickly forming a relatively strong layer of defense ability on the surface of Zhou Ran's body, with this unique internal qi defense layer, he successfully climbed up 30 steps, and when he climbed to the 31st order, this terrible pressure has increased by a full 6 times, and now this doubling degree, even if his whole body is covered with King Kong's defensive internal qi, it is very difficult to carry it.

It is not visible in the dark environment, if there is light, you can find that the surface of Zhou Ran's body is all dense red lines, which is the situation that his body surface has a stress reaction due to too strong pressure.

Taking another step upward, Zhou Ran's complexion suddenly changed, this time it was only a step up, but the intensity of the pressure was not simply one or two percent, but directly doubled into half, that is, every two steps in the next two steps will be doubled, so he may not even be able to take 10 steps.

Taking another step up, a wooden bracelet on Zhou Ran's wrist directly spread a crack, and before he could quickly put this bracelet away, it was already accompanied by a muffled sound, and the entire bracelet shattered into countless wood slag and fell on the steps.

Next, all kinds of wood jewelry on his body began to shatter, this kind of strong pressure is not something that this kind of wood jewelry can resist, and in order to improve his attributes, so when Zhou Ran chooses wood hand jewelry, he chooses the kind of jewelry that can add attributes, and the jewelry that increases attributes is only used ordinary wood, and does not use ironwood wood, so the hardness is not very good.

The wooden jewelry on his wrist has all been broken, and now the jewelry that remains on his body is only the strange power bracer and a few bronze jewelry, and now his attributes in all aspects have also dropped by about 5 points, except for agility, everything else has fallen below 30 points.

Panting heavily, it was already very laborious to climb this step, and now the damage to these jewelry has led to the decline of its own attributes, and it is even more laborious to climb down, if it weren't for Zhou Ran having to leave here and have to climb this step, then he might have given up.

But climbing this staircase is not without benefits in addition to destroying the jewelry, under the stimulation of this external pressure, the internal qi in his body is growing at a very fast rate, and becoming more mature, easier to use, and more subtle to master.

Zhou Ran didn't know how long it took him, in short, the dead wood internal qi in his body had completed dozens of internal circulation, if you counted it, it would have been dozens of hours, but he didn't have time to care about these, looking at the last step of the steps, he swallowed a mouthful, with a slight smell of blood, and then took a step upward, when he took this action, the surface of his left leg immediately cracked, and this terrible pressure was already able to cause him damage on a physical level.

Gritting his teeth tightly, his left leg fell on the top of the last step of the stairs, and Zhou Ran also stepped on the soles of the penultimate steps, covered with a very thick burst of internal qi, this layer of burst internal qi exploded instantly, and his whole person rushed forward vigorously, his body quickly crossed the pressure of the last step, and then jumped to the top of the steps.

Turning around and looking at the bottomless steps, Zhou Ran, who was panting heavily, showed a relaxed smile on his face, although he spent a lot of effort and suffered a lot of injuries, he finally succeeded in crossing this step.
