While Yuan Ming was concentrating on training, Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King also reached the 600th step.
Yuan Ming opened his eyes and glanced at Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King, then closed them again.
When Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King saw this, although they were curious, they did not dare to disturb him. They each received the rewards they deserved from the green-bearded old man.
Just as they were hesitating whether to take the first step and continue climbing up, Yuan Ming suddenly opened his eyes, stood up, and looked at the two of them.
"I plan to go alone for the rest of the journey. Please come back." Yuan Ming's tone was calm and firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
Upon hearing this, Wu Yu looked at Yuan Ming, his expression did not show much change, but there was a hint of shock and anger in the eyes of the Giant Tree King.
"Wan Tianren, what do you mean?" the giant tree king asked angrily.
"It's just the literal meaning. Please stop here." Yuan Ming responded calmly.
"Fellow Taoist Wan, are you worried that we will compete with you for the Three Realms Immortal Boat? Please rest assured that the Giant Tree King and I have never had such extravagant desires. We only hope to climb the nine hundred steps and obtain the rewards there, and we will be satisfied.
That's it." Wu Yu stretched out his hand to stop the giant tree king who wanted to scold him angrily, and said with a sweet smile.
Yuan Ming was unmoved, shook his head and said, "It's my decision for you two to stop here."
Wu Yu's face also darkened, and there was a trace of displeasure in his voice: "Fellow Taoist Wan, do you really want to be so mean? We didn't help that Sima Changqin attack you just now, you should know it."
Yuan Ming responded expressionlessly: "So, I didn't take action against you just now. Now, if you want to continue to advance, you only need to defeat me."
The rewards at level 600 are already so generous. It is easy to imagine that at level 900, since he has broken with the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom, he will naturally not allow Wu Yu and the two to move forward.
"Fellow Taoist Wan is joking. Even fellow Taoist Qin Mo was knocked away by three punches and two kicks. How can we be your opponent? But is this matter really non-negotiable? I am willing to give up the spiritual treasures and spiritual materials on my body."
, and I took out all the rewards I just got, I just want another chance to move forward." Wu Yu raised his hand and waved, and a large piece of stuff appeared on the steps.
The giant tree king suppressed his anger and took out many things.
Yuan Ming glanced at the treasures on the ground and couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. The total value of these items is comparable to four or five seventh-level spiritual materials, which is indeed tempting.
At this moment, Xiying's voice suddenly sounded in Yuan Ming's sea of consciousness: "Bring the bronze token that the Giant Tree King took out, bring it over and let me see it."
Hearing this, Yuan Ming turned his eyes to the Giant Tree King.
There was a palm-sized token placed there. It seemed to be made of some kind of spiritual iron, with mysterious patterns engraved on the surface. It was obviously not a mortal thing.
He raised his hand and made a move, and the token flew into his hand. With a thought, he sent the token into the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron.
Xiying took the token, made a secret with both hands, and performed a mysterious technique.
I saw the token blooming with five colors of light, and the patterns on the surface gradually faded away, replaced by many small words. These words
It seems to contain some profound secret, and people can't help but want to explore the mystery.
Sure enough, this token is the legendary Five Elements Talisman Edict, and it also records the magical power of Five Elements Dao Fruit. It is really great news!" Xiying's face showed a look of surprise, and his eyes flashed with excitement.
"Five Elements Talisman Edict? Five Elements Dao Fruit? What exactly are these two?" Yuan Ming couldn't help but asked curiously.
Xiying explained: "The Five Elements Talisman Edict is a token of the head of the Five Elements Sect, which was once powerful in the Izumo Realm millions of years ago. The Five Elements Sect is extremely powerful and has produced several Mahayana monks. Its reputation is not only in the Taixuan Sect and the Ming Dynasty, but also in the Ming Dynasty.
Under the Moon Palace. However, during the first invasion of the demon world, the Five Elements Sect suffered heavy losses. Almost all the disciples in the sect were killed and injured, and many mysterious skills and magical powers were also lost. It is really sad. The Five Elements Sect specializes in the Five Elements Taoism.
The changes in the Five Elements have been deduced to the extreme, and the most powerful magical power is the Five Elements Dao Fruit. This magical power is said to be able to break all the Five Elements magical powers, and its power is strong enough to be ranked on the list of creations, and it remains to this day.
Still firmly in the third position.”
Listening to Xi Ying's narration, Yuan Ming's heart beat involuntarily faster.
Kong had told him before that in order to understand the true meaning of the Five Elements and lay the foundation for advancing to the Mahayana, he must practice the magical powers on the Creation Heavenly List.
Now that he knew that the Five Elements Dao Fruit was actually the third magical power on the Heavenly List, Yuan Ming naturally understood that this would be of great help to his future practice.
In comparison, the treasures on the ninth floor seem insignificant.
At the same time, Wu Yu also noticed that Yuan Ming had taken away the bronze token of the Giant Tree King, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
She sent a message to ask the Giant Tree King about the details of the token. The Giant Tree King said that he got the token by chance in a ruins and did not understand its origin. He only said that the token has the effect of accelerating the recovery of demon power.
Therefore, it is always worn close to the body.
After hearing this, Wu Yu glanced at Yuan Ming again, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Fellow Taoist Wu Yu is so persistent in climbing the 900th step, does he know something?" Yuan Ming's voice suddenly sounded in Wu Yu's ears.
Wu Yu hurriedly collected his thoughts and replied half-truthfully: "This is also my first time here, and I know nothing about this place. It's just that I did a divination before stepping on the stairs, and I learned that it's the first time I've come here.
At level 100, I can get something that is very important to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons. I also ask fellow Taoists to help me."
"Since fellow Taoist Wu Yu is so sincere, it would be unkind if Wan continues to refuse to agree." Yuan Ming chuckled, waved his hand and sent out a burst of green light, rolling up all the things Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King took out.
, put it into the storage instrument.
After doing this, he didn't say anything more, turned around and continued climbing upwards.
Wu Yu's eyes were filled with joy, and when he was about to follow him, he suddenly had a premonition of something and looked back.
Within the space of the Silver Tower, the void distorted, and three figures emerged out of thin air.
These three people, two men and one woman, are none other than Su Wu, Hei Lian and Su Yingxue.
None of them put on any disguise, they all showed their true colors.
Everyone under the altar had never seen these three people, and they had different expressions. They sent messages to each other asking Su Wu about their identities.
Among the crowd, Nan Shangfeng's expression suddenly changed when he saw Hei Lian's appearance.
"Do you know these three people?" Master Tantai asked curiously.
"I was chased by that black-robed woman. Fortunately, I escaped with the help of ten thousand fellow Taoists."
Nan Shangfeng did not hide anything and said softly: "This woman's name is Hei Lian. She claims to be a descendant of the Black Emperor of the Three Realms Sect. She practices the Black Emperor's Void Sky Demonic Skill and has a cursed spiritual treasure. She is quite powerful."
"Heir of the Black Emperor!" Master Tantai was surprised when he heard this.
Although Nan Shangfeng's voice was not loud, everyone nearby heard it, and their expressions also changed slightly, and they all looked at Hei Lian.
Di Huo was recommending the Yuling Huiyuan Pill to Jin Chen and Gu Chuanting. When he saw Su Wu and the others suddenly appearing, he couldn't help but stop.
Yuan Ming was also attracted by the sudden noise below and couldn't help but turn his head to look down.
His eyes circulated among the crowd, and finally settled on Su Yingxue's beautiful and refined face. His eyes paused on her face for a moment, and then quickly glanced at Hei Lian and Su Wu.
Su Wu also raised his head at this moment, his eyes meeting Yuan Ming's.
The moment the two people's eyes met, there was a look of surprise on their faces, but this surprise was quickly covered up by them.
Su Wu ignored the different looks from the people around him. He reached the steps in a flash and started climbing without hesitation. Hei Lian and Su Yingxue did not join him.
Su Wu's climbing process seemed extremely easy, and every step was taken calmly and leisurely.
The suction and heavy pressure that seemed like a nightmare to others seemed to have no effect on him.
His climbing speed was much faster than everyone present, as if all the restrictions in this space were nothing to him.
Yuan Ming didn't pay too much attention to Su Wu's climb and turned around to continue climbing.
Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King saw this and hurriedly followed.
After passing the 600th level, the suction force on the steps became stronger and stronger, not only devouring their mana, blood and soul power at an alarming speed, but also firmly adsorbing their feet to the steps.
Every step the three of them took seemed to be fighting against a huge force, which was extremely difficult.
At the same time, the pressure in the void became heavier and heavier, as if there were invisible rocky mountains pressing on their shoulders, forcing them to stoop their backs, and the breathing between their mouths and noses became heavier.
It seemed like every breath took a huge amount of effort.
And the attacks falling from the sky became more and more fierce. Various powerful spells and attacks fell like raindrops, almost submerging the entire staircase.
Yuan Ming's eyes narrowed slightly. Even he felt unprecedented pressure at this moment.
Although the attacks and space pressure falling in mid-air made him feel stressed, he was still able to cope with it with the Hunyuan Dao Seal and various means.
However, the power of those stairs to swallow mana, blood, and soul power made him start to feel worried.
Yuan Ming had a thought in his mind, took a deep breath, mobilized all the strength in his body and began to climb with all his strength, trying to reach the legendary nine hundred steps before exhausting all his strength.
As a result, as soon as he ran up the thirty or forty steps, the suction force on the steps increased in vain, as if there were invisible giant hands pulling his body, making every step he took was as difficult as carrying a huge boulder.
More importantly, his mana, qi, blood, and soul power were being consumed at a much faster rate than he imagined, and more than half of it had been consumed at this moment. He understood that with his own strength alone, he would not be able to persist to the nine hundredth level.
"It seems that we still need to use this." Yuan Ming thought to himself, and then controlled the immortal tree to enter the Shura Palace and began to absorb spiritual stones and blood source pills to restore his strength.
"Don't absorb any more blood source pills. This pill contains too many impurities, which will affect your future physical cultivation progress." At this moment, Xi Ying's voice sounded in Yuan Ming's sea of consciousness.
"Of course I know this, but now I have no choice but to pass the test first." Yuan Ming sighed softly, knowing that Xiying's reminder was correct, but at this moment he was in a dilemma.
"Don't be reckless. I've thought of a way to weaken the suction force of the stairs." Xiying's voice sounded again, pointing out a possible way out for Yuan Ming.
"What method?" Yuan Ming stopped absorbing the blood source pill and asked hurriedly.
