421: C421 Road to Heaven

C421 Road to Heaven

At this moment, although his method was different from Xiao Dingtian's, his power was much stronger. As his body was once again bursting with Heavenly Note Force, even his skin was torn, and time seemed to stop at this moment.

Boom!

Bright red light gushed out from his seven orifices. Ceng Yin leaned his arms back and let out a world-shaking roar. Then, he suddenly exploded into countless pieces of dust.

A terrifying impact came from the place he had vanished into, crushing everything in its path. The entire stretch of Heavenly Sound Master seemed to have melted away like snow, and many people did not even have the time to let out a scream before they were reduced to the smallest existence in the world.

"Xiao Dingtian, you can't escape from my palm, the Fate Stone is mine!" The old monster was still reciting his lines, but he didn't know that his opponent had vanished into thin air. He himself was like a paper man soaked in sulfuric acid, dyed black and accompanied by the dissipation of the impact.

"In that battle, I slaughtered seven hundred and twenty people and killed Eccentric Wu with my palm. Only Dan Xiong Xin was the only one I couldn't kill."

Xiao Dingtian's voice sounded faintly, and with his words, time began to fall back. Rocks and soil flew backwards to fill up the hole, and his disappearing body was reconstructed. The explosion that seemed to have obliterated everything came back to its original point.

Ceng Yin was jolted awake and held his neck as he started to breathe heavily. Everything around him was gray, including the old monster who kept raising his arms with a proud smile on his face.

"What's going on? Time … Time has fallen back?" Ceng Yin staggered as he stood up, only to realize that his hands and feet had been restored to how they were before. In front of him, a man with messy hair and bloodstained clothes walked past the frozen Heavenly Sound Master.

With every step he took, the grey bodies he passed by would become yellow sand and scatter on the ground. When Ceng Yin raised his head to look, only yellow sand was left behind him.

"Yellow Sand, could this desert be..." Ceng Yin raised his foot and took two steps back. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, "No, I am also stupid. This is obviously impossible."

"Dust returns to ashes, dust returns to ashes. No matter how powerful one is, there will always be a day where one dies. The past has once been filled with sorrow and joy. Let's bury them all in this desert."

This was Xiao Dingtian's last sentence. The moment he said it, the light blue ripples disappeared and Ceng Yin stood dumbly under the towering stone monument. It was unknown if he was enjoying Xiao Dingtian's sigh or was just thinking about how strong he was before.

"Older Brother Ceng, the path to heaven has already been opened. Let's go." A hand rested on Ceng Yin's shoulder, causing him to tremble slightly. He turned his head and saw a spiral staircase behind him.

Each section of this flight of stairs was formed with a melody. The higher one went, the more complex it became. The lower and narrower it was, like a whirlwind that had stopped at the bottom of the ancient pagoda.

"Let's go. This Senior Xiao is truly someone with a story." Ceng Yin chuckled.

"Yes, they are people with a lot of stories."

Wu Shuang agreed. The scene of Ceng Yin's experience had completely entered his eyes.

Regardless of whether it was Old Monster or Xiao Dingtian, they were both world-famous giants in the God Soul Continent. However, as Xiao Dingtian had said, no matter how strong they were, they would not be able to escape death.

The two of them walked side by side on the road to heaven. They had experienced many things. The impatience in their hearts had long since disappeared. When they looked back at the ancient pagoda, they felt like they were on a pilgrimage.

Ceng Yin may not know much about it, but Wu Shuang was clear that the one buried here was that continent's most powerful fighter, the Monarch Ling-jie who dominated the entire world!

The path to heaven was not very long, it was only five hundred steps. Wu Shuang and Wu Shuang leaped lightly and reached the first step, which was two meters above the ground.

The moment his foot landed, the melody he stepped on began to play a soothing rhythm. At the same time, a new parallel melody appeared on the second flight of stairs.

"What does that mean?" Ceng Yin looked at Wu Shuang, "Do you want to make an additional choice or separate the two of us?"

"It's not easy to come to a conclusion. Let's just take things one step at a time." Wu Shuang looked at the new melody, pointed at the old one and said, "Just in case, let's go this way."

Ceng Yin nodded. He was a few years older than Wu Shuang, so he unconsciously protected him.

This time was no exception. He was the first to climb the second step. As his feet landed, another tempo sounded out. Although this time it was also very slow, there were several more hurried notes than before.

"No problem, come on." Ceng Yin waved at Wu Shuang, his eyes already set on the third step.

"Alright." Wu Shuang was about to jump, but he realized that he couldn't do it. He tried jumping towards the parallel melody, but he succeeded.

When Ceng Yin jumped up to the third step, he turned around and found that Wu Shuang had gone to another step, but was running at the opposite direction from where he was standing.

"Wu Shuang, what happened? Didn't we agree to leave together? Why did you change your mind?" Ceng Yin was slightly displeased. He took the lead for Wu Shuang's safety. Yet, this brat ran away to take the risk himself.1

"No, Older Brother Ceng, I won't be able to go wherever you jump to. However, every step you take, a new melody will appear on my side. That is to say, how much action I can take will depend on you." Wu Shuang shrugged and felt helpless.

"Is that so?" Ceng Yin rubbed his chin and said, "Wu Shuang, the two stairs in front of us aren't too far away. Try jumping to my side."

Wu Shuang's eyes lit up when he heard this. The distance between the two of them was only two meters, which was the perfect time to verify their speculations. At the end, as the distance between them increased, it became a kind of extravagant hope.

Wu Shuang could easily cross five meters with the help of his body control. A mere two meters was not a problem. However, before he could reach the place where Ceng Yin was standing, he felt an invisible barrier that pushed him away.

Wu Shuang fell back onto the ground. For the moment, he ignored Ceng Yin's concerned greetings and rushed out again. This time, he aimed at the fourth step above him.

"Done." Wu Shuang landed on the ground with a joyous expression on his face. A new melody ladder appeared at the position that was parallel to him.

Ceng Yin jumped over. The two of them smiled at each other as they alternately crossed a few steps. The gap between the steps was getting bigger and bigger. When they reached the 11th step, the distance was doubled.

"Older Brother Ceng, be careful. We'll meet upstairs." Wu Shuang waved his hand and jumped back to the right side.

With every step Ceng Yin took, a melody appeared in front of Wu Shuang. The two of them went around to the left and right, going up. The stairs they stepped on also became more hurried as they kept going up.

Wu Shuang always felt uneasy. If there was something wrong with this Heavenly Road, then it must be on this increasingly urgent melody.

Before he could figure out what was going on, the sound from the stairs below was so rapid it was disturbing.

"Hurry up and end this damn road to heaven, it's a type of torture." Wu Shuang frowned. As soon as he stepped onto the melody stairs, the steps started shaking as if they were going to fall down at any moment.

At the same time, the opposing Ceng Yin and the stairs in front of him also fell down and completely disappeared the moment Wu Shuang landed.

"Older Brother Ceng, hurry up and leave, or else I'll fall down."

"Wu Shuang, don't move. If you keep moving, there's no other way."

Wu Shuang and Ceng Yin shouted at the same time …
