Chapter 9: Jade Pendant Mutation

Previous Chapter

Tu Yuan really felt the pressure that made people collapse, like Mount Tai pressing on the top, no matter how he stood up, it was just in vain.

"So that's when the test really begins!" muttered Tuyuan. He stood in a squatting position for a long time on the twenty-first step, and finally adjusted to the sudden pressure, and he hesitated to step up to the twenty-second step.

When the road ahead is unknown, many people develop a fear from the depths of their hearts, which prevents people from moving forward. Just like there are still not many collections in Chapter 9, this article will be clicked if it is not good. Tuyuan can continue to move forward, and the psychological pressure he is under will naturally not be small. Many people stayed on the twenty-three, four, and fifth steps at this time, and it was not that they couldn't climb up, but they just didn't dare to lie down.

Tu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, made sufficient mental preparations, and stepped on the twenty-second step. To his surprise, the pressure of the twenty-second order was not much different from that of the twenty-first order.

"It seems that the pressure growth of each order is slowly increasing, and only this twentieth order has a sudden strong pressure. In this way, the speed can be increased a lot!" said Yuan Yuan to himself. He looked up and looked for Hou Dengbao's figure, at this time Hou Dengbao had climbed to more than forty steps. Tuyuan nodded: "It seems that I have to work harder." ”

"Elder Lu, the young man you fancy doesn't seem to be very talented?" Elder Chen looked at the distance below and said softly to Lu Xi'er.

Lu Xi'er said: "Originally, I didn't expect him to have a high level of cultivation, but when fate came, I just helped him." What Lu Xi'er said about "helping him" was of course about giving the Yuan Yuan Ascension Immortal Jade Plate, but Elder Chen seemed to suddenly realize.

It looks like I'm going to pretend I can't see anything that happens in a while...... Elder Chen thought he had figured out Lu Xi'er's thoughts.

"This ninety-nine immortal ladder looks very easy to climb, but the higher it goes, the greater the pressure, people with a slightly worse spiritual root, when they reach the fifty steps, the spiritual root that has just been opened has been stabilized, and if they want to go up, unless they have great perseverance, they can only end up with the result of a spiritual root explosion. Although all living beings are equal, as long as they have a spiritual root, they can enter the path of cultivating immortals, but if the talent is really not good, it is okay not to enter. Elder Chen said.

"If a low-level spiritual root wants to climb this nine-nine immortal ladder, it is like a fool's dream, even if it is a medium-level spiritual root, it takes great perseverance to reach the top; But ......"

But if there is a master to help, then the Ninety-Nine Immortal Ladder is still very high. Elder Chen didn't say this sentence.

Tu Yuan didn't know that he had been released by the elders who supervised the examination because of Lu Xi'er, and he couldn't even distract himself from glancing at the immortal seniors in the sky at this time, because he had already come to the fiftieth order.

As Elder Chen said, the fiftieth order is when the lower spiritual root reaches stability, and going down further requires great perseverance. Because then, what you have to endure is more aura than you can handle.

It's like a bottle filled with air, the mouth of the bottle is opened, and it is filled with oxygen, and after the oxygen is completely filled, the bottle has reached its most perfect state. But someone didn't want it to end there, so they continued to inflate the bottle.

There is only one consequence of this, and that is when oxygen is saturated to the point where it can no longer be saturated, BOOM!

How far away do you know these truths? He was thinking at this time, he had already come to this point, if he gave up like this, not only would he not only live up to the kindness of his immortal predecessors, but he would definitely not be able to pass this level.

Tuyuan now feels that his lower abdomen is a little below, and there is a feeling of being very full, like - full of food?

He knew that the place was called the dantian, and he heard that the "qi" cultivated by the immortals was stored in the dantian, and he was afraid that if he continued to walk like this, the dantian would not be able to support it in the first place.

However, he will never give up. From childhood to adulthood, Tuyuan believes in one thing, as long as you work hard, as long as you persevere, nothing will knock you down. When I was eight years old, I chopped wood for the first time, and if I didn't insist on it, how could the first tree in my life be cut down by myself?

"It's not far from the finish line, it's already halfway there!" Tuyuan thought as he raised his head and gritted his teeth. He saw that Hou Dengbao had reached the eighty steps, and this kid's speed was too fast.

And to Tuyuan's surprise, Hou Dengbao was crawling on his own, and he was still holding a girl. Both of them climbed to the ninety-ninth step with great seriousness.

"I have to work harder, too!" Tuyuan gritted his teeth, and he stubbornly lifted his right leg like lead, and walked up to the fifty-first step with difficulty. Just when his whole body climbed the fifty-first steps, Tuyuan felt his dantian "boom", as if the heavens and the earth were shaking, his body couldn't help but shake violently, and beads of sweat the size of beans crackled and fell on the stone steps.

"It's already like this, don't you want to help?" Elder Chen saw the tragic situation of Tu Yuan, but he was extremely puzzled in his heart, he secretly glanced at Lu Xi'er, and it seemed that Lu Xi'er was very shocked.

"I see, I'm afraid she wants to temper that young man!" Elder Lu was very painstaking. Elder Chen comprehended on his own, and couldn't help but sigh at Lu Xi'er's "great" mind.

"Fifty-one! I'm coming! haha!" Tuyuan gasped, tired and barely human-looking, but his eyes were exceptionally bright, and his face was full of proud smiles.

"Next, fifty-two!" Tuyuan cheered himself up, raised his legs and continued to move forward.

At this time, many of the teenagers who were judged to be low-grade spiritual roots in the first level had already stopped in place and no longer moved forward. It's not that they don't want to move forward, it's that they really can't walk anymore. They overcame their initial fears, but sometimes they were short of manpower, and they asked themselves if they really did their best.

"It seems that I am indeed not the material for cultivating immortals!" Many people have already had the idea of retreating at this time, and only a few of them are still working unremittingly.

In the blink of an eye, Tuyuan came to the sixtieth step. He sweated enough to take a sauna. Elder Chen, who had been watching in mid-air, was even more surprised by the perseverance of the distance.

"This kid actually climbed the sixtieth rank completely with perseverance, and he really has something extraordinary, but unfortunately, the spiritual root is only a low-level ......" While admiring Tu Yuan's unyielding will, Elder Chen regretted Tu Yuan's qualifications even more.

If there was a high-level spiritual root in the distance—no, even if it was a medium-level spiritual root, he would be able to reach the top of the Ninety-Nine Immortal Ladder! Elder Chen was so sure.

Although we often say that talent is not enough, work hard to make up. But the reality is that many times our efforts cannot overcome the talent of the sky. It seems that you get up early every day to write practice questions and make papers, but the college entrance examination can only barely enough for a line, while another person often slips in class, almost does not write homework, and the number of unconscious nods in each class is between thirty and fifty, but the college entrance examination is on the spot.

Talent, and most importantly, talent.

Unfortunately, what is lacking is talent.

Elder Chen was feeling sorry for himself, when an accident suddenly appeared on the far side.

Tuyuan climbed the sixty-fourth step, but just as he raised his foot to climb the sixty-fifth step, an accident happened. Maybe it was because he had spent too much physical strength in front of him, and Tuyuan finally couldn't support it, the soles of his feet slipped, and the whole person fell on the stone steps.

"Whew" sounded a little dull, but it did hurt. Tuyuan was lying on the stone steps of 64321, and his consciousness was a little blurred. The blow to him when he fell was obvious, and he heard many people's regrets in a daze.

The voices of regret are made by those who are ready to give up. They stopped, knowing they had to go this way. They looked up and saw a thin but sturdy figure.

They wondered, is this man sick......

But when Tuyuan fell, they still lamented it. It's a shame that it's already two-thirds of the way through.

In a voice of regret, Tuyuan blinked fiercely and climbed up the stone steps strongly.

"Oh~~!!" cheers came from around. Even those who are ahead of them have many people who turn back to cheer for Tuyuan, although they know that Tuyuan may not be able to make it to the end.

He touched his forehead and touched the blood on his hands - because of the fall, his forehead was knocked out with a big wound. Feel free to wipe the blood on your hands on your clothes, and keep your spirits uplifted.

Just as he was smearing the blood on his clothes, some blood stains stained the tattered jade pendant hanging around Tuyuan's neck. A glimmer of light swept across the surface of the jade pendant, completely engulfing the bloodstains. And then......

"Hmm, there seems to be something wrong with the aura around that kid?" Elder Chen frowned, and when Tu Yuan stood up again, he actually felt that there was no bottom around Tu Yuan's body.

"What's going on?" Elder Chen quietly looked at Lu Xi'er and suddenly realized.

"What's going on?" Lu Xi'er frowned, thinking that it was Elder Chen's means, "That's it, I didn't want to help you originally, since Elder Chen has made a move, let's take it as your blessing." ”

But actually, both of them were wrong......

The jade pendant, which was disliked by Tu Yuan a lot on weekdays, was like a bottomless pit absorbing the aura on the stone steps, which was also the reason why Elder Chen felt that the surroundings of Tu Yuan's body were bottomless. If there was no Lu Xi'er, Elder Chen and the few elders next to him, no matter how dull they were, they should have known that there was something wrong with the distance.

However, reality has no ifs.

After Tuyuan stood up again, he felt that the pressure around him had disappeared a lot, and he continued to walk up, and he easily reached the ninetieth step. Tuyuan did it himself, inexplicably.

Raise your head, there are still nine stone steps left above.

All the way!

The journey is far away, and finally the last stone staircase is reached!
