Chapter 112: Above the Nine Heavens
Sealing his spiritual power, Cheng Yun stepped on a higher step, and after he stepped on it, he did not feel any oppression and resistance, which also means that Cheng Yun chose to give up in the face of this bottleneck.
"Being able to break through in the first bottleneck by relying on blood is already a great creation, if there is greed, I am afraid that it will be in vain. Cheng Yun tried to absorb a trace of spiritual power, after this spiritual power entered his body, it churned incessantly, almost shattering the spiritual power in Cheng Yun's body, Cheng Yun knew that he could not refine the spiritual power on this step and disperse this spiritual power out of his body.
After making a decision, Cheng Yun no longer hesitated, and walked towards a higher step, no need to refine spiritual power, Cheng Yun's speed was incomparable, just a short half a pillar of incense, he had already reached the height where Hua Chen and Wei Yi were.
Wei Yi and Hua Chen, these two people sat cross-legged on the 653rd step, their expressions were solemn, Cheng Yun thought in his heart, this step should be the second bottleneck.
Sensing Cheng Yun's arrival, the two of them opened their eyes slightly and then closed their eyes again, after Cheng Yun hugged his fists at the two, he didn't bother anymore and continued to climb up.
Cheng Yun went all the way up, when he stepped on the 999th step, his body passed through a cloud, this cloud blocked Cheng Yun's vision, when the cloud dissipated, Cheng Yun looked at it, the ladder he was in and the other six ladders converged on the road to heaven, where there were already six monks standing.
"Cheng Daoyou!" Zhu Han saw Cheng Yun coming, took a few steps forward, and raised his hand to signal.
"Zhu Daoyou. Cheng Yun walked towards Zhu Han, he glanced at the five monks, and found that the monks who had embarked on the path to heaven before, except for Hua Chen and Wei Yi, had all gathered on this path to heaven.
"Cheng Daoyou, you are late, but you have already broken through the bottleneck above the three hundred and forty-one steps?" Zhu Han lowered his voice and asked Cheng Yun.
What Zhu Han asked was also what those monks were concerned about, all the monks of these monks were Liumang, they all stopped in front of the three hundred and forty-one steps, they could only give up, Cheng Yun was a six-mangg monk like them, Cheng Yun had delayed for so long to come here, they were very curious about whether Cheng Yun had broken through that bottleneck.
Cheng Yun saw that Zhu Han lowered his voice, and he didn't want to make a statement, so he said in a low voice: "Cheng was lucky enough to pass that step and stopped at five hundred and thirteen steps. ”
When Zhu Han heard this, his face showed admiration, and he hugged his fists and said: "Cheng Daoyou is really the pride of heaven who cultivates my generation, I admire it!"
Cheng Yun waved his hand and said with a slight smile: "Why do you say this, Cheng Mou is just a coincidence, otherwise, like all fellow Daoists, he will have to stop at that bottleneck." ”
Zhu Han thought that Cheng Yun was modest and unwilling to publicize it, so he didn't ask about it anymore.
"Brother Zhu, why don't you continue to go up, but wait here. Cheng Yun looked up, the road to heaven was not yet over, on it, there were still long steps, and the steps, above the nine heavens, seemed to have no end.
If Zhu Han was waiting for Cheng Yun here, he would still say the past, but Cheng Yun and the other monks had no friendship at all, and they definitely would not stop for Cheng Yun, so Cheng Yun was puzzled.
Zhu Han smiled bitterly and pointed to a higher step on the road to heaven, and Cheng Yun carefully inspected the environment in which he chose to live.
The steps where Cheng Yun is now are extremely wide, dozens of times larger than ordinary steps, and where this step connects to the higher steps, there is a light curtain, and that light curtain flashes with blue light, enveloping the entire step.
When he saw this layer of light curtain, a thought surged in Cheng Yun's heart, and this thought fell straight into his heart.
"I couldn't get to the top of the ladder. After Cheng Yun saw this light curtain, he said slowly.
After Zhu Han heard this, he smiled bitterly and continued: "Yes, after seeing this light curtain, I had the idea that I couldn't step on a higher step in my heart. ”
Cheng Yun thought in his heart, and after thinking of Wei Yi and Hua Chen, who were still below, he spoke: "Wei Yi Daoyou and Hua Chen Daoyou have not yet arrived, maybe the steps here can only be opened when all the monks who participated in the trial gather." ”
Zhu Han nodded slightly, the stairway they were in gathered here, connected to the path to heaven, and it was very likely that they would have to wait for all the monks who participated in the trial to arrive before they could lead to a higher step.
Both of them stopped talking, Zhu Han began to close his eyes and cultivate, while Cheng Yun thought in his heart.
"For thousands of years in the Jin Kui Sect, only a few monks have been able to pass the test of the Tongtian Realm, don't say that today, that is, when the Dayu Dynasty, the monks who can pass through the road to the heavens are also a very small part, so this matter is strange!" Cheng Yun looked down, and he looked at the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps he had experienced.
"The nine hundred and ninety steps that I have experienced before, every time I climb one place, there will be some obstacles, but in fact, it is a great creation, as long as I close my own spiritual power, and do not absorb the spiritual power emitted from the steps, I can easily reach the nine heavens, if the steps are the same as these nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, then the road to heaven is too simple. Cheng Yun closed his eyes and pondered, and in his heart, there was a trace of suspicion about the higher steps.
"The national test of the Yu Dynasty is by no means child's play, when it has not yet climbed the road to heaven, the vision encountered has been extremely dangerous, this road to heaven, there must be a more sinister test, the ladder we have stepped on before are separated, and here gathered in one place, nine times out of ten, on this step, is the crisis of the road to heaven!" Cheng Yun's mind moved, looking at the higher steps, his eyes, through the light curtain, the thousandth step in his eyes.
The thousandth step was thousands of zhang in size, enough for thousands of people to stand on it at the same time, and in the center of the steps, the ground was engraved with dense runes.
Cheng Yun turned his spiritual power into operation, and a thin light curtain appeared in his eyes, covering his eyes, and Cheng Yun's eyes, through this light curtain, saw the runes more clearly.
The rune seemed to be a strange text, but Cheng Yun looked closely, but the discoverer's rune was clearly a seal, and under that seal, there was a not weak force that was running non-stop.
Cheng Yun raised his head and looked at the steps up, the higher the steps, the narrower they became, but each step, the most central place, was marked with runes, and the runes on each step were different, and the power of the seal, the higher it went, the more powerful it became.
After watching it for less than three breaths, there was a trace of blood left in the corners of Cheng Yun's eyes, and the light curtain covering Cheng Yun's eyes gradually dimmed.
"Among those seals, it must be the real crisis of the road to heaven! There are so many seals, once they break out, I don't know how many people will be able to resist them!" Cheng Yun dispersed the light curtain in his eyes, and let the blood dripping from the corners of his eyes, and before the blood landed, it had already disappeared in mid-air, as if it had been swallowed by something.
Cheng Yun closed his eyes, since his eyes saw the outline of that trace of life, his eyes contained a strange power, this strange power, as if he could see through everything in the world, almost nothing could hide from these eyes.
Ever since the majestic man left that mark on Cheng Yun's forehead, Cheng Yun felt that this power was gradually becoming clearer, and he could already freely control this strange power in his eyes.
When he came to this platform above the nine heavens, Cheng Yun took the initiative to use this strange power for the first time, but only the time of using the three breaths was unbearable, between heaven and earth, there was a force opposite to this strange power, every time he used it, he would be eaten by the power between heaven and earth, with Cheng Yun's cultivation, he could only watch the three breaths now.
"If one day, I can freely use the power of this eye, I am afraid that there will be nothing in this world that can stop my eyes. Cheng Yun rubbed his aching eyes, opened them again, and his eyes turned red.
Cheng Yun looked down silently, Hua Chen had broken through the bottleneck of six hundred and fifty-three steps, and climbed to a higher place, Wei Yi followed, after Hua Chen broke through, he also broke through this bottleneck, followed Hua Chen closely, and came to a higher step.
The two of them went all the way up, Hua Chen stopped at the 823rd step, and Wei also stopped at the 820th step.
A full hour passed, and Wei Yi climbed another step upward, while Hua Chen gave up continuing to refine spiritual power and walked straight to a higher step.
After Wei Yi climbed another step, he also chose to give up, came to the top of the nine heavens, and reached the platform of nine hundred and ninety-nine steps.
When Hua Chen and Wei Yi arrived, the nine stairways they were in all dissipated, leaving only a path to heaven that stretched from the ground to the nine heavens.
The layer of light curtain connected to the higher steps on the platform, after Hua Chen and Wei Yi stepped into the platform, as Cheng Yun guessed, slowly disappeared, and the road to the higher steps had appeared.
