Lin Fan was having a pleasant chat with Ye Linglong. Ye Linglong's face suddenly changed, she stood up and looked warily at the bush that was taller than a person in front of her.
Lin Fan pulled Cheng Feiyang behind him and was ready to take action.
I saw a group of people pushing away the bushes, the leader of whom had a smile on his face.
"Don't worry, we don't mean any harm."
When Cheng Feiyang saw this person, he stepped forward excitedly and said, "Senior Brother Lu Zhuo, it's me, Cheng Feiyang."
Lu Zhuo looked surprised when he saw Shi Cheng Feiyang.
"Junior Brother Cheng, you are here too! Do you mind if we join?"
Cheng Feiyang looked at Lin Fan, and Lin Fan nodded to indicate that it was up to him to decide.
Cheng Feiyang then said: "With the addition of Senior Brother Lu Zhuo, our team's strength has increased a lot."
Lu Zhuo laughed and asked the disciples behind him to sit down.
After some conversation, Lin Fan learned that there were actually disciples from Qingxuan Peak in his team.
"Do you know the news?"
Lin Fan immediately became interested and asked, "What's the news?"
Lu Zhuo patted his forehead with an expression of sudden realization.
"I also heard this news from others. In three days, a grand hall will appear at the Alchemy Emperor Center!"
Lin Fan didn't understand why they had such news.
"Who did you listen to?"
"Yanxing Pavilion!"
Seeing that Lin Fan was puzzled, Ye Linglong opened her mouth to educate Lin Fan.
"Yanxing Pavilion is the most mysterious place in the entire world of immortality. Many treasures come from there. And if you want to calculate the specific location of the treasures, you have to pay the corresponding reward."
Lin Fan was shocked, isn't this a prophet? Saying this, all the treasures in the world are in their pocket!
Ye Linglong's tone changed.
"But basically, Yanxing Pavilion won't count it, because it will reveal the secret and will shorten your life!"
"So the people in Yanxing Pavilion don't live long."
Lin Fan understood immediately, but he was still curious about the Yanxing Pavilion. Could they figure out that I came through time?
"So I'm gathering people now. When the central hall comes out, we can get a share of the pie."
However, Lin Fan felt that he could only drink a little soup, because their current manpower was obviously too small, and their personal combat power was only Ye Linglong and Lu Zuo who had entered the golden elixir stage.
Lin Fan knew that he was invincible in the foundation building realm, but compared to other forces, it was still not enough.
"Ding, main mission."
"Secure the first place in the martial arts competition in the main hall!"
"Reward: Ancient spiritual weapon—Nine-Star Sword."
Lin Fan was speechless, this main mission was going to kill people!
He is a little ant with a sixth-level foundation. It’s fine if he doesn’t get crushed to death. Why does he still want to win the first place? ! Isn’t this a foolish dream?
But Lin Fan then thought about it, Nine Star Sword? Could it be related to my "Nine-Star Sword Shadow"?
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, everyone was no longer obsessed with finding spiritual herbs, but instead gathered their sect disciples everywhere.
An invisible undercurrent is surging in the Alchemy Emperor's secret realm, and how many people have lost their lives because of this fight.
Three days later, all forces gathered in the center of the Alchemy Emperor's secret realm.
Sure enough, around noon, which is obviously the brightest time of the day, the whole sky and earth turned dark and dull.
Suddenly a golden light penetrated the clouds, and then a magnificent palace emerged in mid-air.
Just when everyone was sighing at this wonderful scene, a golden staircase descended from the hall in the sky.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from the sky.
"Whoever climbs the golden ladder will get a treasure!"
Everyone present was excited, the real treasure was inside!
"Brothers, come on!"
The leader of an unknown force shouted loudly, and then led his people to rush towards the golden ladder.
"Brothers, stop them! The treasure belongs to us!"
In this way, the two forces fought fiercely under the golden ladder.
As soon as one force moves, there will be a second force.
Lu Zhui made a prompt decision and rushed towards the ladder with his men. Just as Lin Fan was about to say something to stop him, he was drowned out by the noisy charge.
For a time, countless disciples from all sides were killed and injured, and the blood directly dyed the ground under the golden ladder red.
This battle lasted for a whole day, and in the end no force reached the Golden Staircase.
Just when everyone was in a fight, the people from Yanxing Pavilion stood up.
"Fellow fellow Taoists, after I watched the sky last night, I realized that this Golden Staircase is not as simple as you saw!"
All the forces that were fighting in full swing subconsciously stopped and looked at the disciple of Yanxing Pavilion in mid-air silently.
"Then what do you think is wrong with this golden ladder?"
Because Yanxing Pavilion is a special profession, no matter which force, including the royal family, treats the disciples of Yanxing Pavilion with great respect.
"This golden ladder is not something anyone can climb up if they want to. If you don't believe it, you can go up and try."
Although everyone was doubtful, they firmly believed in the words of this disciple of Yanxing Pavilion.
"Everyone, I can give it a try. If it is true as this Yanxing Pavilion disciple said, we can discuss it in the long term."
"If there is no problem, we can continue the fight. What do you think?"
All forces agreed. After all, someone was testing the waters, so why not do it.
The man stepped onto the first golden ladder under the eyes of everyone.
The man had just landed on the golden ladder with one foot, and a powerful pressure directly covered his body.
The man endured the pressure and struggled to put his other foot on the second golden ladder.
"puff!"
As soon as the man put his feet up, he was knocked straight down the golden ladder.
The man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the endless golden ladder in front of him with lingering fear.
Everyone was in an uproar.
Did they know that the man's strength was at the fourth level of the foundation building realm, and he couldn't even climb up to the second level of the golden ladder.
Now all the forces have stopped and are studying how to go up the golden ladder.
After their constant attempts, they discovered the doorway to the golden staircase.
Each monk does not rely on his own brute force to climb the golden ladder, but relies on the power of blood and spiritual power in his body to block the pressure of the golden ladder.
After figuring out the door, everyone will turn their hostility into friendship. Anyway, whether they can get up in the end depends on their own ability.
Afterwards, everyone began to climb the golden ladder.
Lin Fan was naturally among them. He only slightly mobilized the power of Qi and blood in his body to minimize the pressure.
Lin Fan did not compete for first place, but just followed silently in the middle and lower reaches of the crowd.
Ye Linglong was already at the top of the golden ladder that she boarded at this time, with a relaxed look on her face, and there was no trace of any pressure on her face.
"Ah! I can't hold it anymore!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the monk was blown away by the powerful pressure, and then a high-grade Xuan-level spiritual weapon landed next to him.
His eyes were shining, and he didn't expect that there was still a treasure to take.
The eyes of those disciples who had fallen early were filled with jealousy, and some even had murderous intentions in their eyes.
When everyone on the golden ladder saw this, they worked harder and harder. They also understood at this time that the higher you go, the better the reward!
The disciple who had obtained the top grade Xuan level still wanted to go up the golden ladder, but found that he could not even go up to the first floor.
"I can't hold it anymore!"
"Brothers, I'm leaving first!"
"Just stop here, we can't go up!"
As time went by, most of the people were eliminated, but they all came back with a full load and a very happy mood.
“Who do you think will make it to the top?”
"Probably the third prince of the Southern Empire. He is now at the third level of Jindan cultivation. It can be said that he has the strongest ability to enter the Dandi Emperor's secret realm!"
"If you go by what you said, the one from the Tianlong Sect is also at the third level of the Golden Core, and he also has a chance to reach the top!"
.............
Lin Fan was calm and looked at Ye Linglong, who had already dumped him eight blocks, with the corners of her mouth raised.
Although Ye Linglong only has the first level of Jindan cultivation, her spiritual power reserve is not weaker than that of other Jindan monks.
"Girl, even though you are only at the first level of Jindan, you are actually at the same speed as me."
At this time, a monk wearing a five-clawed golden dragon and yellow robe said with a smile.
Ye Linglong glanced at him and said nothing.
The man in yellow robe refused to give up and continued to talk.
"My name is Nan Ye, may I ask the girl her name?"
Ye Linglong didn't want to pay attention to him, and used her spiritual power to increase her speed.
Nan Ye smiled slightly, his eyes shining as he looked at Ye Linglong's beautiful back.
"Beauty, I, Nan Ye, can't get any woman I want!"
Almost everyone around Lin Fan was eliminated, but what surprised him was that Zhao Bai was not far behind him.
Lin Fan chose to wait for Zhao Bai to see if he could take him to a higher golden ladder.
"Senior Brother Lin, why don't you leave?"
Zhao Bai seemed to be struggling with every word he spoke. Compared to Lin Fan's understatement, the difference was immediately noticeable.
"Wait for you, I will take you away when you can't bear it anymore."
Zhao Bai was stunned for a moment, and the warm sun suddenly swept through his body.
"But... you."
"It's okay. You see, it shouldn't be difficult for me to take you like this."
Zhao Bai didn't show any pretense and agreed.
After a long time, only the Jindan disciples were left on the golden ladder, but there were two others who seemed out of place.
"Look, what's going on with those two people?!"
The people under the golden ladder looked and found that there were actually two foundation-building monks still on the golden ladder!
"It seems that the person in front is helping the person behind to share the pressure of the golden ladder!"
"What! One of his foundation-building monks actually led another foundation-building monk to this point?!"
"Is this still the foundation-building realm?"
"Hahahaha, he is a monk in the foundation-building realm, and he is our senior brother in Xiaoyao Peak!"
............
Nan Ye also found Lin Fan who was far away, but he felt that Lin Fan's behavior was tantamount to seeking death. How could He De, a young monk in the foundation-building realm, have such an idea.
Ye Linglong also noticed Lin Fan's behavior and wanted to persuade him, but after thinking about it, he chose to remain silent.
He knew Lin Fan's character, so it was all in vain.
Zhao Bai looked pale at this time, and beads of sweat as big as soybeans ran across his cheeks.
Although Lin Fan shared most of the pressure with him, at this level, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Brother Lin, let's stop here."
Lin Fan didn't force it, he also knew that Zhao Bai had reached his limit at this time.
Lin Fan immediately withdrew his energy and blood, and Zhao Bai was ejected into the golden ladder.
Then a middle-grade yellow-level sword fell in front of him.
"Brother Lin, you must climb to the top!"
Zhao Bai was too weak to stand up, but he still stared at Lin Fan's movements.
The moment Lin Fan sent Zhao Fei away, he felt light all over. He moved his somewhat stiff body and climbed up the stairs quickly.
"Look, that kid can actually speed up!"
"Is this really what a foundation-building realm should look like? It's so terrifying!"
"Why do I think he can reach the top?"
"Don't be ridiculous, just a monk in the foundation-building realm can't make big waves!"
At this time, Nan Ye, who had walked two-thirds of the way, discovered that Lin Fan was not far away from him, and his speed was not slow, and he would be overtaken in a short time.
Nan Ye's eyes showed disdain, do you want to surpass me? Let’s practice for a few more years!
Nan Ye also speeded up immediately.
There are fewer and fewer people on the golden ladder, but without exception, they are not far from reaching the top.
"Did you see that the Third Prince Nan Ye is number one! It's only a matter of time before he reaches the top!"
"The one from the Tianlong Sect is ranked second, and he might even surpass the Third Prince in the end!"
"Who is that woman? Why haven't I heard of her? Is she a monster cultivated by some super family?"
"Don't worry, the monk in the foundation-building realm hasn't gone down yet."
Everyone was dumbfounded. They really couldn't believe that a monk in the foundation-building realm could persist here.
Lin Fan felt the pressure even now. Looking at Ye Linglong not far ahead, Lin Fan accelerated again.
"Am I dazzled, is he speeding up again?"
"You're not dazzled, I saw it too!"
"How much spiritual power this man has!"
Currently, there are only sixteen Golden Elixir monks on the golden ladder, and they are all working toward the top.
Lin Fan passed a golden elixir cultivator and did not forget to look back at him.
The golden elixir monk felt that he had been insulted and directly used all his spiritual power to speed up.
But before he could take a few steps, he was blown away by the pressure and fell to the ground, looking at Lin Fan's back unwillingly.
He suddenly felt that the high-grade yellow-level spiritual weapon in his hand was a joke.
When there were still more than a hundred golden steps before reaching the top, everyone was sweating profusely and their pace slowed down a lot.
Lin Fan was now side by side with Ye Linglong, but he was in great pain at this time.
Because of sweating, the white robe Ye Linglong wore was soaked with sweat and clung tightly to her proud body.
Don't look at anything inappropriate, otherwise it will be a golden ladder with a hammer.
Ye Linglong was also panting heavily. She knew she was reaching her limit.
"Sir, you have to walk the rest of the way by yourself. My spiritual power is almost exhausted."
Ye Linglong had to breathe every time she said a word, and her voice was a little hoarse.
Lin Fan wanted to continue walking with her, but Ye Linglong stopped him first.
"Master, don't even think about taking me with you, I want to see you reach the top!"
Lin Fan saw Ye Linglong's determination and responded.
After walking dozens more steps of the golden ladder, Ye Linglong was forcibly kicked off the golden ladder because of overdraft of spiritual power.
Lin Fan no longer had any scruples at this time and began to climb the stairs wholeheartedly.
Ye Linglong was already exhausted at this time. Fortunately, Zhao Bai led Lu Zhui and others to guard her side to prevent those villains from snatching her earth-level low-grade spiritual weapon.
At this time, there were four people left on the golden ladder, and except for Lin Fan, they all thought they were third-level golden elixir monks.
Lin Fan knew that if Ye Linglong was also at the third level of the Golden Core, she would never be eliminated with her talent.
And he was able to reach this point by relying on the powerful energy and blood provided by the nine-turn hegemonic body he cultivated and the rich spiritual power reserves provided by the "Xuan Tian Jue".
Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for him to reach the foundation-building realm now.
Climbing the golden ladder has reached its climax. The four of them are now on the same ladder, and none of them want to be slow.
"I dare to ask which disciple my friend is, and he has reached this point with his foundation-building cultivation."
Nan Ye watched Lin Fan's eyes light up and had already figured out how to bribe Lin Fan into his employ.
"Don't worry about which sect I am in, take care of yourself first."
As soon as Lin Fan finished speaking, he climbed up another golden ladder.
Nan Ye's face turned dark. It was the first time he saw someone dare to speak to him in such a tone.
As Lin Fan climbed up the next golden ladder, others followed him at the same time.
Seeing that he was left behind, Nan Ye climbed up not to be outdone.
Lin Fan did not leave the ink mark, and directly unleashed the energy, blood and spiritual power in his body without any reservation.
Success or failure depends on this.
The other four people also knew that it was time to decide the winner, and it depended on whether they could reach the top now.
"What! They actually still have spiritual power! It's really terrifying!"
Everyone gasped when they saw the five people on the golden ladder still exerting force.
As expected of a genius, this spiritual power reserve is comparable to that of a fifth-level golden elixir monk!
"Nine-turn hegemonic body!"
Lin Fan shouted loudly, and then a layer of blood-red mist wrapped around his body, and the power of Qi and blood increased sharply again.
At this time, Lin Fan's speed would directly throw those four people far away.
Nan Ye's eyes narrowed. He was a monk at the third level of the Golden Core. It was impossible for him to be stepped on by a monk at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"Secret Technique: Transformation of Essence and Blood!"
Nan Ye's eyes were blood red, and blood streaks were densely wrapped around his eyeballs.
The muscles on his body also grew several times larger, stretching out the gorgeous robe.
Nan Ye stared at Lin Fan, who had already thrown him far away, and then rushed forward.
Others on the same floor as Nan Ye showed helplessness, this is a secret technique! Something only the royal family and those ancient families have!
In just a few blinks, Nan Ye had already surpassed Lin Fan.
"Boy, Nan Ye, I am someone you can't afford to mess with. I must be number one!"
Lin Fan was shocked. He didn't know why Nan Ye's strength had become so strong in a short period of time.
But when he saw Nan Ye's current situation, he knew that he should have used some kind of elixir or something.
"Is that a secret technique unique to our Southern Empire?! It's really suffocating!"
"I have heard that this secret technique can use blood essence as a medium in a short period of time to exchange for cultivation or physical enhancement! And it can be used in every realm, including the emperor!"
"hiss!"
"This secret technique is really magical!"
Lin Fan was not discouraged. The path of cultivation was to face difficulties. If he gave up, there would be no hope of dominating the world.
The two refused to give in to each other and stepped onto the same golden ladder almost at the same time.
When there were ten steps left on the golden ladder, both of them were breathing heavily. Each step up was extremely difficult.
But Lin Fan felt that Nan Ye was clearly failing. His aura was getting weaker and weaker, and his whole body was becoming sluggish.
"puff!"
When there were only five steps left on the golden ladder, Nan Ye finally couldn't hold it any longer, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the bottom of the golden ladder.
Then a low-grade heaven-level sword floated in front of him.
Nan Ye's eyes were full of dissatisfaction. He did not expect that his third-level golden elixir monk would actually lose to Lin Fan, who was at the sixth level of the foundation-building realm!
When Lin Fan saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the remaining five steps of the golden ladder with longing in his eyes!
