Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1914: Chapter 1914: Damn, This Resistance Is Way Too Strong!

The reduction in cultivation obviously serves more than just to maintain a normal state of mind, as when Ye Haochuan began climbing the mystical staircase, there was no sign of his cultivation recovering.

Ye Haochuan could only contend with the Ascension Ladder using the power of an ordinary person.

Climbing the first step, Ye Haochuan didn’t exert much effort, but he started noticing something unusual.

On this mystical staircase, besides the gravity from the earth, there was a repulsion from above, consuming immense energy with every step.

Ye Haochuan didn’t think much further and continued to lift his legs upward.

The second step had nearly twice the repulsion of the first.

The third step doubled again compared to the second.

And so forth, when he reached the tenth step, Ye Haochuan felt his legs begin to ache.

Looking at the seemingly endless staircase above, Ye Haochuan’s heart couldn’t help but tremble.

Damn, it’s just ten steps and already so powerful, how is one supposed to conquer the thousands more above?

Ye Haochuan cursed inwardly.

However, as soon as this thought arose, another voice quickly countered it.

”It’s just a damn mystical staircase, isn’t it? I, little master, have cultivated till now and faced countless hardships. Back when I climbed Vermilion Bird Peak and Xuanwu Peak at Four Sacred Ridge, wasn’t it just as perilous at first and didn’t I end up reaching the summit?”

This voice was quickly endorsed by Ye Haochuan.

Indeed, what kind of dangers hasn’t he faced? He’s even killed gods; surely, he can conquer this broken mystical staircase.

This thought rekindled Ye Haochuan’s fighting spirit, and he stepped forward once more.

Unknowingly, he climbed dozens more steps, and compared to before, the repulsion here increased substantially. Even the seemingly transparent air felt dense to the touch.

Yet Ye Haochuan seemed to have adapted to this environment; although his climb was slow, he did not pause.

His clothes were drenched in sweat numerous times, sticking to his back uncomfortably. He directly took them off since no one was around to see, unafraid of exposure.

However, this made the dense repulsion feel like steel blades scraping against his firm flesh, hurting terribly.

Ye Haochuan gritted his teeth, attempting to ignore the pain around him and focusing entirely on the climb.

... Ninety-nine steps, one hundred steps.

Ye Haochuan finally paused briefly, gasping for air as if pulling a bellows, voraciously absorbing every bit of fresh air around.

At this moment, without any spiritual energy to support him, he had arrived here solely on physical strength. And this strength, under such strong repulsion, appeared very fragile, so each step consumed enormous energy.

One hundred steps counted as a short-lived victory. He didn’t dare look up, for witnessing the endless steps above could easily shatter the newly risen fighting spirit.

Like a method marathon runners often use, dividing a long road into several segments, each aiming for the short-distance goal, making it easier to reach and persist.

Ye Haochuan stayed at the hundredth step for nearly ten minutes, replenishing most of the expended energy.

Step one hundred and one marked a new journey, and Ye Haochuan mustered all his strength to step forward.

As soon as his right foot landed on the step, Ye Haochuan staggered, his figure swaying multiple times and nearly getting thrown off.

Damn, the resistance is too strong!

Ye Haochuan barely stabilized himself without falling off the mystical staircase, cursing inwardly.

In danger, but Ye Haochuan’s foot, like a magnet, firmly secured on the mystical staircase.

With this step, the other leg finally had a chance to ascend.

However, the process was far from easy. This single step exhausted almost all of Ye Haochuan’s strength, making a simple step feel akin to climbing the sky.

Indeed, this road is, after all, a path to ascend to the heavens. How could it be easy?

Ye Haochuan didn’t dwell much on this; the only thought in his mind was to climb the next step. He banished any fear or thoughts of giving up to the back of his mind.

He stayed on this step longer than the last, and after recuperating, he bravely stepped up once more.

”How come Haochuan hasn’t come out yet? Could something have happened to him?” Ye Xian worriedly thought at the entrance of the Heavenly Road after waiting long.

”Don’t worry, some scenes inside appear real but won’t truly harm anyone!” Ye Hao reassured.

However, his expression was not as relaxed as his words, evident from his furrowed brows.

Ye Haochuan had been inside much longer than he initially expected, which seemed quite abnormal.

According to his initial thoughts, considering Ye Haochuan’s cultivation, overcoming the first challenge without fearing the spiritual energy surge would already be remarkable. In contrast, it took him, at the Half-Step Immortal stage, a long time to condense gaseous spiritual qi into liquid.

Yet, according to his prior experience, if Ye Haochuan hadn’t advanced past the second stage, he should’ve been ejected already. Why is he staying so long?

”Father, why don’t you go in and check on him?” Ye Xian suggested to Ye Hao, genuinely concerned.

”Me going in wouldn’t help; each person follows a solitary path inside and I wouldn’t be able to see him,” Ye Hao sighed.

”What to do if Haochuan encounters danger inside with no one to help?” Ye Xian grew increasingly worried, even regretting allowing Ye Haochuan to train inside.

”Let’s wait a bit longer!” Ye Hao had no other options but to sigh.

Suddenly, he sensed something in the void, but upon close inspection, couldn’t find anything.

”Heavenly Eye, open!”

With a light command from Ye Hao, golden light flashed in his eyes, making everything around seem clearer.

”Oh? Is that... the Ascension Ladder?”

Ye Hao was amazed to find a mystical stair shadow in the void, identical to the Ascension Ladder he saw in the Heavenly Road.

This mystical stair plunged straight into the clouds, with no visible end, destination unknown.

Meanwhile, a seemingly feeble silhouette climbed arduously upon it.

”Haochuan has... climbed that high?” Ye Hao’s eyes almost popped out, clearly astounded.

Know that back then, he was also brushed off the Ascension Ladder, and the highest point he reached was only slightly beyond Ye Haochuan’s current position.

”Incredible, really incredible!” Ye Hao was overjoyed.

Ye Haochuan, only at the Nascent Soul Mid-Stage, achieving such a level, who knows how powerful he will become after reaching the Half-Step Immortal stage?
