Capítulo 1121: Chapter 35: Ascending the Stone Steps

Bai Yutian is indeed impressive, not showing any signs of fatigue even after ascending nine layers of stone steps.

He continued to step upward, climbing five more stone steps in succession, finally reaching the 14th layer stone steps.

At this point, Bai Yutian began to feel an oppressive force enveloping his entire body, and even Bai Yutian couldn’t help but frown slightly.

“He’s encountering some trouble.” Lin Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, but he felt that although Bai Yutian was facing some minor trouble, with Bai Yutian’s capability, he should be able to overcome it.

Bang!

A powerful “force” emanated from Bai Yutian’s body!

He wanted to rely on his own “force” to counteract the immense pressure descending from the stone steps.

And Bai Yutian indeed succeeded.

He continued to step upward.

This time, Bai Yutian took three more steps in succession, reaching the 17th layer stone steps.

At this moment, the pressure Bai Yutian was enduring became increasingly greater.

Relying solely on the power of “force,” it was now very difficult to continue moving up higher stone steps.

“Perhaps he can use his own Dao to counteract the pressure of the stone steps!” Lin Feng stroked his chin, as he hadn’t climbed the stone steps himself, so he was just speculating that this could be done; he wasn’t sure if it really could be.

Within Bai Yutian’s Dantian, a powerful wave surged forth.

Bai Yutian indeed began to operate the Dao he had comprehended.

Not many cultivators can comprehend their own “Dao,” but those who can are invariably extremely outstanding, making challenges across levels an incredibly easy task.

Bai Yutian comprehended his own “Dao,” which didn’t surprise Lin Feng, after all, Bai Yutian was a top-level Heavenly Pride.

Lin Feng didn’t know what Bai Yutian’s “Dao” was, but once Bai Yutian started to operate his “Dao,” he once again overcame the pressure imposed on him by the stone steps.

Bai Yutian took one step after another upwards.

Finally, he reached the 27th layer stone steps.

This was almost Bai Yutian’s limit; he tried to ascend the 28th layer stone steps but failed.

Crackling sounds even emanated from Bai Yutian’s body, his bones almost breaking, so he dared not continue trying, and ultimately retreated.

A dozen or so Heavenly Prides of the Demon Clan quickly flew over to congratulate Bai Yutian.

Being able to ascend the 28th layer stone steps already demonstrated Bai Yutian’s talent.

It is rumored that if one can ascend the First Layer stone steps, they have the potential to become an Eternal Giant.

If one can ascend beyond the 20th layer stone steps, they have the potential to become a cultivator of the Reincarnation Realm.

If one can ascend beyond the 40th layer stone steps, they have the potential to become a True God.

If one can ascend beyond the 60th layer stone steps, they have the potential to become a Heavenly God.

If one can ascend beyond the 80th layer stone steps, they have the potential to become a Giant God.

If one can ascend beyond the 90th layer stone steps, in the future they might even reach the realm of a Great Emperor.

As for reaching the Heavenly Pride Platform, it is rumored that above a Great Emperor, there is still an ethereal, elusive realm; cultivators who ascend the Heavenly Pride Platform have the potential to touch that ethereal, elusive realm.

However, since the Heavenly Pride Battlefield opened, countless Heavenly Prides have ascended the 99th layer stone steps, but no one has ever reached the Heavenly Pride Platform.

Actually, it’s not just the Heavenly Pride Platform.

Even reaching the stone steps beyond the 40th layer is rare.

From the 41st to the 60th layer stone steps, only over 400 people have imprinted their names.

Those names, many are like thunder, echoing far and wide, having reached the Reincarnation Realm, leaving the Heavenly Martial Continent, seeking breakthroughs across the ocean on the Jiuzhou Continent.

The number of those who’ve ascended from the 61st to the 80th layer is less, now under a hundred.

Between the 81st and 90th layers, there are fifty people.

Between the 91st and 99th layers, only twenty people.

Regarding the 99th layer, only Murong Heavenly God ascended.

…

The Three Thousand States’ Heavenly Prides are countless as grains of sand in the galaxy.

But those with potential for divinity beyond the 40th layer stone steps number just 600 combined.

And this is only the potential for divinity.

Having potential doesn’t mean one will definitely become a god.

From these 600 people, if a few gods emerge, that is already quite impressive.

…

Soon, more people ascended the stone steps, but it wasn’t easy; many failed, occasionally someone could ascend the stone steps, but at most reach three or four layers, unable to continue upward.

During this time, more than a dozen cultivators were ruthlessly killed by the 99th layer stone steps, their blood flowing on the stone steps, quickly absorbed by the stone steps.

“These stone steps can even absorb the blood and essence of cultivators, truly bizarre.” Many people felt a chill.

Lin Feng stepped forward, heading towards the stone steps, wanting to see how many layers of stone steps he could ascend.

“Someone else is going up.”

“Who is this young man? Does anyone know him?”

“I don’t know him. The Three Thousand States is too vast; how can everyone be known?”

…

Many people looked towards Lin Feng, curiously waiting to see Lin Feng climb the stone steps.

“Isn’t that Lin Feng? He also wants to climb the stone steps?”

“This Lin Feng is quite capable; he might be able to ascend the First Layer stone step!”

“Didn’t he claim to be a disciple of an ancient force? What formidable figures can ancient forces cultivate? Although his realm isn’t low, how many people in the world of cultivators rely on elixirs or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to elevate their realm? There are too many cultivators with realm but no strength.”

An Qiye’s companions looked curiously at Lin Feng, who was heading towards the 99th layer stone steps, and began to discuss. They had spent three days with Lin Feng; An Qiye had inquired about Lin Feng’s background, and Lin Feng had not hidden it, revealing he was a disciple of an ancient force from the Desert Domain.

The Desert Domain, merely a realm in the Northern Seventy-two States, the poorest region of the Heavenly Martial Continent.

People outside know little about the forces of the Desert Domain, assuming the Northern Seventy-two States to be a barbaric land.

Even forces like the Longevity Hall, ancient as they are, are not well recognized by top-level forces from other states.

Perhaps the only forces in the Northern Seventy-two States remembered by cultivators from other states are the Longevity Hall and the Barbarian God Temple?

So Lin Feng being looked down on isn’t surprising.

Lin Feng reached the 99th layer stone steps, and he could feel a faint pressure enveloping the surrounding heaven and earth; the 99th layer stone steps had its own special Order Law.

Lin Feng raised his left foot, stepping onto the First Layer stone step.

“Can he ascend the First Layer stone step?” Many people were curious.

Lin Feng then followed with his right foot onto the First Layer stone step.

He successfully ascended the First Layer stone step, astonishing many people.

This unremarkable cultivator had unexpectedly easily ascended the First Layer stone step, surprising them greatly.
