Chapter 7: A Thousand Steps
There was confusion and confusion in her eyes, her face was covered with blood, and she looked very desolate. The boy turned a blind eye to this, because he had already discovered that everything here was illusory, which would explain why there was no Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi here, and this was also the reason why she was able to play the role of being so similar to Senior Sister Yang Tian. Because this is completely a kind of illusion formed according to Yang Tian's memory, but it is very perfect, and the flaws are very small, but it was still discovered by Yang Tian!
"Break it for me!" Yang Tian shouted, and with this sound, the girl's figure turned into shards like broken glass, and these shards dissipated in the air. Then I saw that the house also began to shatter, like the moon in the mirror, and the flowers in the water turned into nothingness.
Yang Tian's eyes were dark, and his vision turned from bright to dark, but he could still see the surrounding environment, this was a stone chamber of several zhang in size, several zhang high, and some strange patterns were carved on the stone wall. The stone room was empty, Yang Tian looked at the empty stone room around him and was very puzzled, and said in his heart: "I just broke that illusion, I thought it would appear at the bottom of the Stygian Stream, how did I come to this stone room?"
However, at this time, Yang Tian sensed the vitality of heaven and earth, and it was very rich. Yang Tian found that his injuries had healed, and both his legs and meridians had recovered to the state he had before coming to the Flame Valley, and he guessed that it might have been the vitality that washed him over here.
In front of Yang Tian, there was a stone gate several zhang high, tightly closed, Yang Tian came to the stone gate and felt curious, and was about to reach out to touch this door, boom, boom, "Little guy, I didn't expect you to be able to break the illusion of the deity so quickly, it's really good, if you can also pass the next level, then you will have the opportunity to get the inheritance of the deity!" A voice echoed in the stone room, with a hint of relief and appreciation in his voice!
"Who are you, and what kind of place is this?" Yang Tian was a little jealous in his heart for this person who only heard his voice and did not see his form, "For the sake of your appearance, it doesn't hurt to sue you, the deity is the master of this place, but there is only a trace of remnant soul left, the purpose of opening this cave is to find someone destined to inherit my inheritance, there have been ten people here before, but you should be able to guess their fate!" Yang Tian guessed: "They should be dead, right?"
"Yes, if you can't pass the next level, then you will also follow in their footsteps, I hope you can succeed, I don't want to wait any longer!" The door in front of Yang Tian had already opened, and the voice then sounded: "After you enter through this door, you will see a thousand-layer stone staircase, all you need to do is to go to the thousandth floor, and then you can get the inheritance of the deity, little guy, go quickly!"
Yang Tian walked through the door, boom, boom, the door was closed again, as if it had never been opened.
At this time, Yang Tian saw a scene that shocked him very much, there was a completely heaven and earth in front of him, the sky was purple, thunder was constantly falling, and a roar sounded. At his feet is a platform the size of a hundred zhang, and in front of him you can see layers of steps extending upwards without bounds, like a stone staircase that leads to the sky. On both sides of the staircase, it was pitch black, and the stone staircase stood completely horizontally in the void, without the help of any external force.
Each stone ladder is several zhang long and several feet wide, Yang Tian looked around, only to see that all the thunder in the sky fell on these stone ladders. And these stone stairs seem to be very special and have not been shattered by thunder, almost unaffected. The stone gate behind Yang Tian was long gone, and it could be said that there was no way to retreat, only to move forward, not to mention that he didn't think about retreating.
Yang Tian took a step forward, standing on the first stone step with two feet, and did not find anything abnormal, and only then did he realize that there did not seem to be thunder falling here, only in a higher place. After feeling that there was no difficulty, Yang Tian no longer delayed, and his body method was unfolded, and his steps were like flying.
Ten floors.
Thirty floors.
Fifty floors.
Soon he reached the hundredth floor, Yang Tian thought to himself: This is not difficult, why can't so many people pass this level? At this moment, he felt a sudden sinking under his feet, and his body could no longer be expanded. "Hehe, little guy, let's go up honestly, from this level to the thousandth level, it is all made of geomagnetic element stones, you can enjoy the wonderfulness of it!"
"It's actually made of geomagnetic stones, no wonder those people didn't make it through. Yang Tian's face was solemn at this time, but of course he was more shocked in his heart, because this geomagnetic yuan stone could be said to be a very rare treasure, even if a piece the size of a stone appeared, it would cause cultivators to snatch it. And here is actually using the earth magnetic yuan stone to build stone steps, which is completely wasteful in Yang Tian's opinion. The geomagnetic element stone has a great suction force on the materials of the outside world, and can absorb the heaven and earth yuan qi stored in it, and the more yuan qi inside, the greater the suction power.
The stone steps under Yang Tian's feet were completely different from before, the first hundred layers were made of blue-brown stones, and the current stone steps were as white and immaculate as white jade. Of course, this was not the most obvious difference, at this time, Yang Tian could feel a burst of suction under his feet, and this force was so continuous that he could no longer expand his footwork. Yang Tian had no choice but to move upwards step by step, he could feel that the force he used at this time was twice as strong as before, although it was slower than before, but he was still sure to reach the peak.
In this way, after about half a cup of tea, Yang Tian finally walked through a hundred steps again, it seemed that it didn't take a lot of time, but compared to before, it was a world of difference. The previous hundred steps Yang Tian had only taken a few breaths to complete, but now it had taken so long. However, Yang Tian didn't care about this, he just hoped to reach the top of the stone steps quickly.
Yang Tian was about to lift his right foot and take a step further when the suction under his feet suddenly increased, "How can this be?" Yang Tian obviously felt that the suction under his feet had doubled compared to before, and there could only be one reason for the increase in suction power, that is, the vitality in the geomagnetic element stone was twice as much as before. Thinking of this, Yang Tian's face sank, because he guessed a possibility, that is, the suction power might increase like this every hundred steps. If that's the case, it would be troublesome, and that voice didn't give Yang Tian any more hints.
No matter what, Yang Tian has to accept this fact and no longer have any luck mentality. In order to save the body, he decided to slow down so that he would not be weakened. In this way, Yang Tian slowed down his speed, and it took a long time to take almost every step he lifted, of course, even then he could feel the loss of his body. After walking through the ten steps Yang Tian stopped there to rest for a while, since there was no time limit, Yang Tian decided to rest every ten steps of the steps, although it could not fully recover, but it was better than walking all the way up.
After a few more hours, Yang Tian finally stepped on the three hundredth steps, and the moment he stepped on, Yang Tian felt that the suction power under his feet had doubled. It was all in Yang Tian's expectation, the suction power had reached three times at this time, even if Yang Tian was a cultivator, he felt a little unbearable, after all, his realm was still very low. For those who have cultivated to a high level, triple suction power is not worth mentioning at all. Yang Tian rested for a while and continued to walk, although it would be more and more difficult, but he still had to walk.
After walking ten steps again, Yang Tian's face was dripping with sweat, although it was also very expensive before, but there was not a drop of sweat, but now this situation has appeared, which shows the great suction power of this stone step. However, Yang Tian never planned to give up, although it was difficult to walk, it was not a kind of training for himself, which can also be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and if he missed it, he would not have it again.
Two days later, Yang Tian stepped on the five hundredth steps, at this time his clothes seemed to be soaked by the rain, and his legs were also a little shaky, obviously it was not easy to come here. Yang Tian was about to take a break on this step when suddenly a purple thunderbolt fell from the void. This thunder is only as thick as a thumb, but it contains the power of heaven and earth, Yang Tian also sensed the aura of danger at this time, he raised his head and saw that this thunder was slashing towards him at an extremely fast speed, and he could not retreat, and the next moment it was in front of Yang Tian.
