C550 Climbing Ladder
Pure chaotic energy was drifting in the air. The giant door that was thousands of feet wide was shrouded by the glow of chaos. The swirl rotated and sucked the pure chaotic energy into the door.1
"Thank you very much." Zhou Qian said with an unnatural expression. He glanced at Gu Feng with a strange expression in his eyes. Moxin looked at Gu Feng and stiffly squeezed out an ugly smile as he cupped his hands in thanks to the crowd.
If Gu Feng and the others did not lend a hand and continue to fight, even if the two of them were able to kill the Chaos Beasts in the end, they would still be seriously injured and end up in a situation where both of them were heavily injured. Such an outcome wasn't what they wanted to see.
The two of them stared at Gu Feng with complicated expressions in their eyes. They had also seen Gu Feng display his godly prowess in the past. Previously, they had the confidence that any one of them would be able to stop Gu Feng. Even if they couldn't kill or injure him, it wouldn't be a problem to stop him. However, after seeing Gu Feng's terrifying battle power, they knew that even if the two of them joined hands, they would still not be a match for Gu Feng. Perhaps Jiang Yulang hadn't lost his qualifications and the three of them could defeat Gu Feng together, but that was just one possibility.
After this incident, the two of them were already very afraid of Gu Feng. They had no choice but to consider the matter of how they dealt with Jiang Yulang. Gu Feng was already very hard to deal with, not to mention the even more terrifying Shui Qianrou and Luan Bumie were not weaker than them. Although Gu Feng didn't have many people, their strength was still extremely strong. It was already impossible to target Gu Feng and the rest within the Purgatory Tower.
"The door is about to open." Just as the two of them were conflicted, Gong Yi's indifferent voice sounded.
boom rumble rumble *
A huge explosion could be heard as the massive door slowly opened. Chaotic energy gathered, and behind the door, a Heaven Stairway appeared. The Heaven Stairway was made of a dark gold ore, containing terrifying Dao principles' power, which shined with a dark gold light.
"Let's go."
Gu Feng licked his lips as his heart burned with passion. It was just a mere Heaven Stairway, yet it actually possessed such dense Dao energy. It was really hard to imagine how powerful the owner of this Stone Tower was when he was alive. He was a little impatient, wanting to see what the Stone Tower's master's inheritance was.
Gu Feng stepped forward and instantly reached the top of the Sky Stairway.
"Boom!"
Just as his feet stepped onto the Heaven Stairway, an incomparably heavy pressure came pressing over. Caught off guard, Gu Feng's body staggered and he was almost knocked to the ground by that terrifying force.
"Of course it's not simple. It seems that it's not so easy to cross this Heaven Stairway." Gu Feng took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes. His body was emitting a little fluorescent light, and the heavy pressure on his body instantly became a lot lighter. With one step, Gu Feng directly went past dozens of steps.
"The Sky Stairway has the power of the Tao and the higher the base level, the greater the pressure. If you get thrown down the Heaven Stairway, you will lose the right to get it. " Gong Yi looked at Gu Feng's back and said as a light flashed across his eyes.
Luan Bumie, Moxin and Zhou Qian's faces couldn't help but change. Now they finally understood why Gu Feng's body staggered a little before. Their cultivations were both at the third level of the Soul Forging, so wouldn't they have to withstand even greater pressure than Gu Feng?
"Hehe, not bad, Gu Feng has already reached there, I can't fall behind either." A smile appeared on Huangfu Ruoyun's face, and she immediately went up the Sky Stairway. A fluorescent light emitted from her body to counteract the incomparably heavy pressure. She shouted and chased after Gu Feng.
He wanted to compete with Gu Feng, but regardless of where it was, she had to beat Gu Feng. His competitive spirit was very strong, and that was why she killed the Chaos Beasts that attacked Gu Feng.
"Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!"
Gu Feng's speed was very fast. There were at least ten thousand steps. However, every time Gu Feng took a step, he would move twenty to thirty steps forward. In a short period of time, it was as if he had already walked.
However, his speed was fast and Huangfu Ruoyun's speed was even faster. She was like a whirlwind as she caught up to Gu Feng and then directly surpassed him.
Turning around, Huangfu Ruoyun continued forward with a victorious smile on her face.
Gu Feng couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at Huangfu Ruoyun's back. This woman was really competitive. Gu Feng turned around and looked at the relaxed Gong Yi who was walking like a cool breeze. It was as if the pressure on the Heaven Stairway did not obstruct him at all, causing Gu Feng's pupils to narrow.
Even though Huangfu Ruoyun's speed was very fast, Gu Feng knew that Huangfu Ruoyun was just like him, relying on her strong physical body to advance. The pressure she was bearing was much less than Luan Bumie and the others. But even so, they could still feel a heavy pressure on their bodies. It was just that it couldn't hinder them in any way.
However, Gong Yi was different. He could feel that he was not under any pressure at all. It was as if the Heaven Stairway did not sense his existence, he floated over like a breeze.
"This person really needs to pay careful attention." The longer they spent time with him, the more they felt that Gong Yi was mysterious and powerful. Although he knew that the current him had a Gong Yi's body, his soul was not. However, it was sufficient to shock him.
As for Luan Bumie and the other two, they were not as relaxed as Gu Feng and the others. They were all Martial Cultivator at the peak of the third level of the Soul Forging, and the pressure they were bearing was practically double that of Gu Feng. With such a heavy power, even if they circulated their Spiritual Energy, it would still be extremely strenuous for them to walk on this heavenly body. He had only walked five hundred steps, and he was already tired to the point of gasping for breath. Now that the three of them were envious of Gu Feng and Huangfu Ruoyun, if their bodies were that strong, they wouldn't have suffered such a sin.
"Don't fall behind, I'll be leaving first." Gu Feng looked at the three of them with a smirk on his face. He waved his hand at them, turned into a bolt of lightning, and charged towards the top of the Heaven Stairway. His lightning speed stunned Luan Bumie and the other two.
"Let's go. Let's continue on our way." The three of them looked at each other and saw helplessness in their eyes. Circulating the spirit energy in their bodies, they struggled to take a step forward and walked towards the top of the Heaven Stairway.
They walked for a full two hours. Only after two hours did they reach the peak. As they stepped onto the final step, the pressure that was pressing down on them instantly disappeared. The three of them fell to the ground in exhaustion. Looking at the level ten thousand Heaven Stairway, they felt that they had really walked over unrealistically.
