Chapter 11: The Sound of Enchantment
At this moment, the black-robed young man in second place took the opportunity to pass him and took the lead in ascending to the fortieth floor.
Soon, a second and third teenager overtook him.
Seeing this, the red-robed young man couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and hurriedly stood up again and continued to climb with difficulty.
At this moment, the black-robed young man who walked in the front had already stepped on the fiftieth level.
His expression was solemn, his steps were steady, his body bent forward as far as he could, and with each step, he would pause for a moment, and only when his body was stable did he take the next step.
Behind him, a man and a woman, also on the forty-fifth step, followed. The two of them seemed to be in a state of weightlessness, their expressions were hideous, their facial muscles were pulled back, and the corners of their mouths were almost behind their ears.
As the people climbed up, the more difficult it became, and when they reached the back, it took almost a moment to take a step, and some even took half a day to climb the first floor.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed, and half of the first to climb the stairs had already passed the fifty floors, and the worst had passed the thirty-fifth level.
Everyone was silent, secretly struggling, slowly squirming upward.
Below, the people who were still watching in the open space also went up one after another during this time, and only a few people remained unmoved, and Luo Yan was one of them.
After another stick of incense, the black-robed young man in the lead successfully stepped on the sixty-fifth stone step.
At this time, he finally stopped calm, the black robe on his body was already wet with sweat, and it was tightly clinging to his skin, and every step he took looked very difficult.
The second and third men and women had just crossed the sixtieth step and were sitting in place to rest and adjust.
As for the red-robed young man who was the first in the first place, now he had fallen to more than a dozen, his face was very unsightly, with strong unwillingness and annoyance, he stepped on the forty-ninth step with indignation, wanting to cross the fifty steps in one step.
However, as soon as his feet left the steps, and before he could touch the next stone step, his body was pushed off the ground by the pressure from above, and he was about to roll down the steps.
In a panic, he let go of the token in his hand, and in an instant, a white light lit up, and then a cloud of spirit clouds lifted his body, flew over everyone's heads, and slowly fell on the clearing.
The first to be eliminated appeared.
Many people looked back at the red-robed young man, revealing a gloating expression, as if to say, what is the use of the short-term first, persistence is king!
The red-robed young man's face turned pale at their gaze, and he was about to start climbing the ladder again as soon as his head was hot.
"Everyone only has one chance, and you have no chance with my Heavenly Spirit Gate. ”
Gu Xiaowei's voice came from the void, and then a wall of light appeared in front of him, blocking the way.
The red-robed young man was stunned at first, and although he was very unwilling, he could only leave in frustration.
Shortly after he left, the second eliminated person reappeared, then the third, then the fourth......
Then, like a chain reaction, the white light on the heavenly steps kept lit up, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of people lost their qualifications......
When the black-robed young man stepped up the eightieth step, his body obviously shook violently a few times, and he almost fell down, and it took a while to stand firm.
And, at last, he stopped climbing, sat down on the steps for the first time and began to close his eyes and rest.
In the clearing, Luo Yan held the token in his hand and stepped on the first step.
He was the last assessor, and the moment he stepped on it, he suddenly felt his body sinking, as if he had fallen into a quagmire, which was very uncomfortable.
Under the pressure from all directions, he slowly stepped onto the second and third stone steps.
Luo Yan was very cautious, every step was very calm, and he would never act rashly until he fully adapted to the spiritual pressure.
After all, he had been observing below for a long time, and several of those who had climbed the Heavenly Steps first had failed because they were not steady enough and were too eager to climb before they had fully adjusted.
With the lessons of the past, Luo Yan naturally didn't dare to be careless, and in terms of physical fitness alone, he was undoubtedly the one at the bottom, which made it even more inadmissible for him.
When he stepped on the tenth step, the pressure from the heavenly step was already very obvious, like pressing a large stone weighing dozens of catties on his body.
Although he was the most backward one, and the worst people in front of him had passed the forty floors, he was not in a hurry at all, and he was as steady as a ploughing ox.
Standing on the tenth step and resting for a while, he only stepped onto the eleventh step after recovering a little of his strength.
When he reached the twentieth order, sweat began to ooze from Luo Yan's forehead, his body became a little stiff, and his breathing became a lot heavier. So I rested here for a while, and only after I had fully adapted did I move on.
He looked ahead and found that the white-robed woman he had talked to yesterday had already climbed the forty-fifth stone step, and the black-robed young man in the lead had stepped on the eighty-fifth step, and there were only fifteen steps left before passing the test.
Luo Yan retracted his gaze, took a hard step, took a deep breath, and successfully stepped on the thirtieth stone step.
At this point, he was already sweating profusely, gasping for breath, and the terrifying spiritual pressure hit him, almost making him fall to the ground.
It took several breaths for him to stand firm at this level, and then he immediately sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and silently breathed away.
Soon half an hour had passed, and he stood up again and continued to walk.
On the next road, Luo Yan sat down to rest for a period of time almost every four or five floors, his body became heavier and heavier, and he was covered with sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
When he reached the fiftieth floor, his face turned pale, his forehead was bruised, his breathing became very difficult, and there was a buzzing sound in his ears.
A strong feeling of dizziness hit him, almost making him faint, feeling like a flat boat, in the middle of a stormy sea, which could be swallowed up at any moment.
And during this time, a few hundred more people were eliminated, and now there are only about two hundred people left who are still struggling on the Heavenly Steps.
During the climbing, every muscle on Luo Yan's body seemed to be torn apart, every bone was gurgling, and there was even a slight bone cracking sound.
Under the pressure, time seems to have slowed down, every second is like a year, and the body and mind are tortured.
"Give up, throw away that hateful token in your hand, and put an end to this damn thing. ”
"If you can't hold on, it's futile to continue to die, so why bother asking for yourself. ”
"If you go any further up, you will die, no accidents, the ants are still stealing life, your life has just begun, don't self-destruct. ”
"It's nothing if you can't pass the test, you're still young, it's not only the Heavenly Spirit Gate in the world that can cultivate immortals, there are still a lot of opportunities in the future......"
All kinds of voices persuading him to give up sounded in his mind, and every word was extremely clear, hitting Luo Yan's heart, making his hand holding the token loosen slightly.
This is the second test of the Heavenly Order, the sound of charm, which shakes the will of the tester little by little, and makes people give up on their own initiative.
In fact, this invisible charm is more terrifying than coercion, loosening your heart, disintegrating your will, and killing people invisibly......
It can be said that nearly half of the eliminated people fell to the heavenly ladder because their will was destroyed unconsciously.
What's even more terrifying is that they don't know it.
