Heng Yanlin looked towards the distant Golden Sky Stairway.
At this moment, the Golden Sky Stairway was shining with a faint light, emitting an ancient and boundless aura, as if it was saying something.
Seeing the aura of energy coming from the Golden Sky Stairway, Heng Yanlin frowned slightly. He seemed to be thinking about something as a strange light flashed across his eyes. He thought to himself, "What should I do next?"
Yes, what should he do?
Should I enter this Heaven Stairway to take the assessment?
Honestly speaking, Heng Yanlin also wanted to know whether he should go to the Heaven Stairway to take the exam or not.
If one were to enter, they would definitely accept the favor of the Great Xuan King. This way, it would be impossible to avoid him no matter what.
But those fellows on the fourth floor … If it were him from his previous life, he would naturally not have worried at all, and would have killed them with a single slap. But now, he could not do it, because the current him was at most at the great circle of the Foundation Establishment stage. If he were to die, he would be able to unleash his combat power to the Spirit Core realm.
As for those fellows at the fourth level, after developing for such a long time in the fourth level, they must have a deep background. There were definitely people at the Essence Seal boundary, and there might even be experts that surpassed the Essence Seal boundary.
In fact, there were even more powerful existences!
Such a thing … How could he solve this?
However, he had been helping earlier on, but that was only a small matter. It was not the same as directly facing the experts of the fourth floor.
Moreover, he had Mu Shishan and the others. He also had a lot of shackles and many connections. If the traitors on the fourth floor were to find out, they might be implicated. This was what troubled Heng Yanlin the most.
However, even if he didn't accept this responsibility now, there would come a day when the traitors of the fourth floor would come knocking.
It really was … So annoying!
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. I'll just take things one step at a time."
"Since he said that there are benefits to this, wouldn't I be letting him down if I don't take a proper examination?"
His handsome face revealed a brilliant smile as he stomped heavily on the ground. Immediately, his body leaped into the air and landed on the Heaven Stairway.
"Clang!"
Immediately, the moment Heng Yanlin stepped on it, a loud and clear sound rang out, like the sound of a war drum. At the same time, circles of golden ripples rippled out on the stairs beneath his feet, as if Heng Yanlin was stepping on a lake, extremely beautiful.
Immediately, Heng Yanlin's body felt the oppressive force that came from all directions. It was full of a strong repulsive aura, as if it wanted to expel Heng Yanlin.
Feeling the repelling force, the corner of Heng Yanlin's lips curled up slightly as a faint smile appeared on his face. He immediately circulated his Spiritual Energy into his body and formed a layer of protection before stepping forward.
However, as Heng Yanlin walked towards the Heaven Stairway, the repelling force became stronger and stronger, causing Heng Yanlin's body to be attacked. He couldn't even stop the Spiritual Energy protection and it started to seep into his flesh and blood.
Instantly, his skin began to split open and his flesh became blurry. At the same time, blood also started to flow out from his body.
The pain didn't make Heng Yanlin cry out in pain, but even so, he still frowned.
This was because this repulsive force was indeed very powerful. Even Heng Yanlin never expected this repulsive force to be able to tear his body apart. It was truly inconceivable.
However, Heng Yanlin wanted to know what the benefits of this Heaven Stairway were, so he did not resist it.
After all, the Great Xuan King had just mentioned that there were many benefits.
Since the Great Xuan King was the master of a manor, he naturally had no reason to lie. Thus, Heng Yanlin naturally believed the other party.
Heng Yanlin waited quietly while enduring the pain that came from his flesh being ripped apart.
Then, after a long period of time, Heng Yanlin finally felt that his body started to adapt to the repelling force. At the same time, the repelling force started to fuse with Heng Yanlin's body, gradually becoming an energy that was healing Heng Yanlin's body, making the wounds on his body start to heal.2
At the same time, as the wounds on his body rapidly healed, Heng Yanlin also felt that his body was becoming more and more powerful.
This clearly allowed Heng Yanlin's body to reach a certain limit. He had already broken through the shackles and broke through to the limit.
Sensing all of this, a faint smile appeared on Heng Yanlin's face as he said: "It really strengthens the body!"
Now, Heng Yanlin had roughly understood that the repulsive force on the Heaven Stairway was actually a type of energy used to repair the body. It's just that the body needed to be strong enough or else it would be easy to suppress.
This was equivalent to the difference in quality of spiritual energy.
Just think about it, as a Qi Condensation cultivator, once you reach the spiritual energy world, you will only be able to stay in the Foundation Establishment stage. If you enter the spiritual energy world, the only possibility is not to absorb the spiritual energy, but to be crushed by the spiritual energy.
Because their levels were different, there was naturally no way to fuse them.
The power on the Heaven Stairway was the same.
As long as you can endure the power of the Heaven Stairway, then the power on the Heaven Stairway will gradually strengthen your body, making it stronger.
This really surprised Heng Yanlin. However, he had walked up to the 40th level of the Heaven Stairway and only then was he harmed. This meant that the strength of the Heaven Stairway was not that high.
Heng Yanlin estimated that after completing the 81st Heaven Stairway, it could only be enhanced to the level of the Essence Seal.
'Yuan Seal Stage's flesh and blood … ' Did he want him to follow the path of becoming a saint with his body?
Or could it be that the Great Xuan King was originally a peerless powerhouse whose fleshly body had attained the Dao?
