C858 The Power of the Heaven Stairway
"Ah …" Gu Feng's entire body was roaring with anger. The dense blood aura behind him surged and turned into the shadow of a giant, giving off an extremely strong pressure.
The moment the blood-red figure appeared, the pressure on Gu Feng lessened.
"Drink!
Gu Feng growled and took a step forward.
"Boom!"
The entire Heaven Stairway trembled at this moment. It was the result of two powerful presences colliding in the air, causing the entire world to tremble.
"Dong Dong Dong"
Gu Feng stepped forward, his steps echoing through the air like a loud bell. The pressure decreased by a bit and Gu Feng's speed recovered a bit. Very quickly, he surpassed Murong Lei and arrived in front of him.
"How could I possibly lose to him? This is impossible." Murong Lei's eyes were filled with anger as he roared. The lightning armor on his body was incomparably resplendent, and a Divine Symbol appeared between his eyebrows as well. It connected with his aura. The instant the divine imprint appeared, the aura on his body abruptly increased by a few levels. In that instant, he directly broke through the seventh level of the Soul Forging, and reached the middle stage of the Eighth Level of Soul Forging Stage.
Sensing the aura that had suddenly become stronger behind him, Gu Feng's face could not help but turn serious. As he looked at Murong Lei, Gu Feng's eyes flashed.
"A secret technique to increase strength?" Gu Feng frowned. Although this kind of secret technique could only temporarily raise one's cultivation level, it had an unimaginable effect in a battle. After all, the difference in strength wasn't too great. A sudden increase in strength from one side would definitely result in a surprise victory.
Here, it was the same. Murong Lei, who had reached the Eighth Level of Soul Forging Stage, had an incomparably resplendent Thunder Armor. There were thunder patterns intertwined on it, and lightning bolts spread towards the surroundings. As he took a step forward, lightning flashed under his feet, offsetting the pressure that was pressing down on him.
whoosh whoosh whoosh
In just a moment, the speed that Gu Feng was leading was overtaken by Murong Lei.
"Kid, if you want to beat me, you still need a few more years." Murong Lei growled. Thunder flashed as he took large strides forward.
Gu Feng was not in a hurry as he stepped forward step by step. According to their speed, an hour had passed and Gu Feng was already a hundred steps behind. Murong Lei's speed did not decrease at all and he continued to move forward.
"What's going on? Did Gu Feng fall behind?" This was not good news for them. If they really were given the first place in Hundred Meridians Martial Arts Competitions by Murong Lei, after receiving the baptism of the Spiritual Energy Empowerment, their strength would certainly increase by leaps and bounds. At that time, even if Gu Feng and Fenng Yuvrann teamed up, they would still not be Murong Lei's match.
What happened before clearly showed that Murong Lei hated them. His heart was filled with killing intent towards the two of them, and without a doubt, he would not hesitate to kill the two of them.
"Don't worry, Murong Lei used the Murong Family's secret technique to raise his cultivation level. Although this secret technique can temporarily raise his cultivation level, once time passes, there will be a period of weakness." If he cannot reach the top in this period of time, then he is doomed to failure. " Shui Qianrou said softly.
Many sects had this kind of secret technique to increase one's strength. There are Golden Wolf Clan, and so do theirs. However, there was a downside to these kinds of secret techniques that could raise one's cultivation level. After a period of time, their bodies would become weak, and the Murong Family's secret techniques would become weaker when compared to their Aqua Moon Royal Family. They wouldn't be able to maintain this for long, so, it was certain that Murong Lei couldn't rely on this secret technique to increase his cultivation level to reach the top. And at that time, it was already his fate to fail.
Indeed, when he climbed up the 9,500 level Heaven Stairway, Murong Lei's speed slowed down and the aura on his body gradually weakened. The thunderous roar also gradually weakened.
"Damn it, let me hold on for a while longer."
Murong Lei's eyes were filled with unwillingness. He roared in his heart and continued to climb up. However, he was still slowing down. Murong Lei's eyes were filled with panic. He felt a sense of weakness. He knew that the side effects of the secret technique had arrived.
"Ah …"
Murong Lei roared in dissatisfaction. He really didn't look like he fell on the ground like that.
Right now, his cultivation had already dropped to the seventh level of the Soul Forging. However, because of the secret method, he had overdrawn quite a bit of his strength, and was basically unable to climb at all. Not to mention climbing, the terrifying pressure on the Heaven Stairway made it extremely difficult for him to even move a single inch.
"I hate him …" Murong Lei roared.
He turned around and looked at Gu Feng who was walking towards him with heavy steps. His eyes were filled with hatred. Two hours later, Gu Feng finally arrived at the same place as him. Gu Feng glanced at him and then continued climbing.
After climbing for such a long time, Gu Feng's aura was still calm and steady. The blood colored giant behind him had already shrunk to only a few meters under the pressure of the Heaven Stairway, but it still did not yield.
Gu Feng looked at Murong Lei's weak face and felt some sympathy for him. If he was not so eager to achieve his goals and was not afraid of winning, Murong Lei would only need to climb up bit by bit. When he used his strength in the end, he would have a high chance of surpassing him.
However, Murong Lei was too proud and arrogant. He didn't seem to be behind him at all as he used a secret technique which led to such a solution. All of this could only be blamed on him.1
"Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!"
Gu Feng walked on the Sky Stairway. Every step he took was heavy. Half a day later, Gu Feng climbed up the nine thousand nine hundred level. Looking at the peak of support, a hint of passion could not help but appear in Gu Feng's eyes.
"Boom!"
Gu Feng took a step forward and a terrifying pressure descended. That pressure condensed into a black mountain and instantly landed on his body.
"Boom!"
The entire Heaven Stairway trembled and the blood red figure behind Gu Feng also turned into a blood mist and disappeared in an instant.
"Crack!"
Gu Feng immediately kneeled on the Heaven Stairway, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard. In that instant, several bones broke on Gu Feng's body. Fortunately, Gu Feng absorbed endless life energy before, so his broken bones quickly recovered.
Gu Feng's face turned ugly, this last Level 100 Heaven Stairway actually had such a terrifying pressure, it was also due to his strong physical body. If it was anyone else, perhaps just this one move would be enough to crush all the bones in their bodies.
"Rise."
Gu Feng stared with his eyes wide open and roared. He carried the huge black mountain and slowly stood up.
