After the space vortex in the secret realm was completely stabilized, Lu Ming and the two followed Yue Qianyun into it.
The three people disappeared into the room, and then the space vortex slowly closed.
Within the secret realm.
After entering the secret realm, what comes into view is a blue sky and white clouds, and a golden staircase to the sky.
What the three of them stood under was not the ground, but a flawless mirror.
"Is it worth it to steal something from the Divine Tribulation Realm, and it's a broken sword, so I'm forced to reincarnate?"
Looking at the tarnished gray sword at the top of the golden ladder, Lu Ming asked calmly.
"This sword is so extraordinary. If I hadn't been unable to use it after I got it, I would never have been forced to this point."
There was a hint of unwillingness in Yue Qianyun's words.
"Xiaoyu, there are nine hundred and ninety-nine steps in the Heavenly Sword Staircase today.
Because of the sword above, each step has a strong pressure, which increases step by step.
However, this pressure will be adjusted according to your cultivation level, and is specifically used to test the monk's talent, potential and perseverance.
The original power in your body can be better refined here, and your cultivation level can also be improved quickly under oppression. "
Lu Ming and Ling Yu patiently introduced.
Hearing this, Ling Yu's eyes were full of fire and determination: "Brother, I will definitely reach the top."
"Go ahead, I believe you."
Under the gazes of Lu Ming and Yue Qianyun, Ling Yu stepped onto the first step.
Easily, just one step is still insignificant to Ling Yu.
Due to Ling Yu's speed, he reached the fifty steps in a short while.
Yue Qianyun from behind was already shocked: "There is no resistance at this speed!
How is this possible? In addition to the original coercion of the ladder, there is also the extremely strong sword power emitted by that sword. "
"No need to make a fuss, his talent is not something you, the reincarnated God Emperor, can understand."
Seeing Yue Qianyun's fussing look, Lu Ming said with a nonchalant expression.
While the two were talking, Ling Yu had already climbed to the 100th step.
When he stepped onto Level 101, his steps suddenly stagnated, and an obvious pressure was exerted on him.
But at this moment, Ling Yu still did not use spiritual power or other means, but purely carried it with his physical body.
Relying on physical strength, Ling Yu continued to climb steadily.
Yue Qianyun behind him was shocked again.
"How is it possible? After a hundred steps, the pressure increased again, but he only used his physical strength to carry it!"
"Fuss."
After half a stick of incense, Ling Yu reached the 200th step.
The pressure was greatly strengthened again.
But Ling Yu just paused, his knees slightly bent, and then continued to climb with his body.
At this moment, Ling Yu was sweating profusely, but still did not use his spiritual power.
Until the 300th step, the pressure increased again, and traces of blood began to emerge from Ling Yu's skin.
But even so, he still never used his spiritual power.
He wanted to enhance his pure physical strength, and he wanted to lay the foundation for invincibility in the same realm.
The soreness all over his body and the stinging pain from the cracks in his skin made his face look a little painful.
"It's not enough. Although I haven't been defeated in the same situation so far, my real enemy must be very strong.
I am not strong enough to protect myself or those around me. "
Holding back the pain, Ling Yu reminded himself in his heart.
Level three hundred and fifty.
Level 390...
When he reached the 400 steps, Ling Yu's pace was already very slow.
The skin on his body was even more cracked, and his body was covered in blood.
The previously shed blood solidified, and new blood flowed down to cover it.
It wasn't until the four hundred and fifty steps that Ling Yu felt a qualitative improvement in his physical strength that he began to activate his spiritual power.
rear.
"What kind of monster is this? He didn't start to activate his spiritual power until the 450th floor.
However, the coercion is increasing with each step, and the intensity increases as you go further.
Can he really reach the top? "
Yue Qianyun looked at Ling Yu's figure and lost consciousness slightly.
"Of course he can. With his talent, it's absolutely no problem."
Are you kidding me? The talent of the ninth-level holy body can easily break the limits of the universe.
With this kind of talent, the eternal realm can be easily achieved.
Not to mention this Heavenly Sword Ladder.
On the Heavenly Sword Stairway.
Ling Yu's pace became relaxed again as he activated his spiritual power.
But the gradually increasing pressure at each level is not just talk.
Even Ling Yu began to feel difficulty when approaching the five hundred steps.
Level four hundred and ninety-nine.
Level 500.
Just as Ling Yu stepped onto the five hundred steps, a force of sword intent rushed towards him.
Ling Yu, who once again increased his spiritual power, stabilized his figure.
At this moment, Ling Yu's eyes were confused, because the sword intent that just came towards him made him feel a little familiar.
But I can't remember where I saw it.
As a sword cultivator, with such a powerful sword intention, how could Ling Yu miss the opportunity to understand the art of swordsmanship.
So while he was comprehending the art of swordsmanship, he climbed up with the increasing double pressure.
But each step is gradually slow.
Sometimes when I have some insights, I still have to practice cross-legged on the spot despite the pressure.
It wasn't until a full month later that Ling Yu finally set foot on the 650th floor.
At this time, the system's beep sounded in Lu Ming's mind.
[It is detected that Ling Yu’s swordsmanship level has improved, his strength has greatly increased, and the host is rewarded with a level of cultivation (the seventh level of the ancient god of chaos)]
"Is your sword skill improved? Not bad. Next, you should activate the original power."
In line with Lu Ming's thoughts, Ling Yu used his spiritual power to activate the original power sealed in his body.
As Ling Yu's spiritual power gradually became stronger and stronger, the seal began to be gradually unsealed again.
The original power also began to be refined.
With the blessing of the original power, Ling Yu's pace began to become relatively relaxed.
Level six hundred and sixty.
Level six hundred and seventy.
...
Three days later, Ling Yu set foot on the seven hundred steps.
And the effect is also very good.
At this time, the system prompt sounded again in Lu Ming's mind.
[It is detected that Ling Yu breaks through to the Heavenly Realm, and the host is rewarded with the first level of cultivation (the eighth level of the Chaos Ancient God Realm)]
"Finally we have a breakthrough, a little slower than I expected."
Lu Ming said to himself.
Yue Qianyun on the side has been paying attention since Ling Yu activated the power of refining the source. She doesn't know what kind of power it is, but she only knows that it is extremely powerful.
Seeing Ling Yu breaking through so quickly, Yue Qianyun couldn't help but ask:
"Senior, what is that powerful force in him?"
Hearing this, Lu Ming also responded: "It's just an innate sacred origin."
"Innately divine?"
Obviously, Yue Qianyun did not know what the innate divine existence was.
“The innate beings that existed at the beginning of the universe and the beginning of chaos.
As soon as they were born, they had the ability to peer into the Tao realm. "
"Peering into the Dao realm?"
"...Forget it, this is still too far away from where you are now. It's useless to say more."
Lu Ming was also speechless. Why did he and Yue Qianyun talk so much?
Yue Qianyun knew almost nothing about high-level things in the universe, so there was really no need to say too much.
