Unlike Yuan Ming's bravery and diligence, Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King were walking extremely hard at this moment.
When they reached around level 850, they were overwhelmed and had to stop and rest.
Wu Yu raised his head, looked at Yuan Ming's retreating back, and couldn't help but whisper to himself: "Where is his limit?"
At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps suddenly came from below.
Wu Yu turned around and saw Su Wuzheng catching up quickly.
He was extremely fast and quickly surpassed Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King.
On the narrow stairs, Wu Yu and the Giant Tree King hurriedly ducked to both sides to get out of the way.
Su Wu passed between them expressionlessly and continued to climb towards the top, without even looking at the two of them.
At this time, in his eyes, it was obvious that only Yuan Ming, who was close to level 1,000, was still climbing.
"What is the origin of this person? He can climb the stairs faster than Wan Tianren!" Wu Yu's eyes flashed slightly, curious about Su Wu's strength and identity.
"Your Majesty, we have to speed up. Looking at the speed of Wan Tianren and the young man in black, I am afraid they will be able to reach the top soon. If the trial is over by then, all our previous efforts will be in vain. We must be there before
Reach the 900th floor and get that thing!" The Giant Tree King sent a message to Wu Yu, his tone full of anxiety.
"I know, but the resistance on this staircase far exceeds our previous expectations. Unless we use the original power of the Demon Ancestor, it is impossible for us to speed up." Wu Yu responded helplessly.
She knew in her heart that the original power of the Demon Ancestor was related to whether she could advance to the Mahayana in the future, and she could not use it easily no matter what.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much." A trace of firmness and determination flashed in the eyes of the Giant Tree King. His right arm suddenly changed and turned into a green vine, which quickly shot out and tightly wrapped around Wu Yu's wrist.
.
A stream of hot air flowed along the vines and slowly injected into Wu Yu's body. Wu Yu's expression suddenly changed, and she hurriedly shouted: "No! How can you give me the origin of the demon ancestor that has been accumulated for thousands of years? This is not only
It will ruin your future in cultivation, and it will also cause your strength to decline significantly, and you may even fall out of level six!"
However, the Giant Tree King laughed loudly and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about it. I have mediocre qualifications and there is no possibility of advancing to the Mahayana. As long as Her Majesty the Queen can break the shackles of my Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom and bring hope to our clan,
Then everything is worth it." As he said that, the hot air flow he sent accelerated a little faster.
After a few breaths, the green vines slowly retracted, and the giant tree king's body fell weakly on the steps.
His face looked older and his breath quickly weakened, but a smile managed to appear at the corner of his mouth.
The next moment, a green light flashed, and the giant tree king's figure disappeared from the spot and appeared at the bottom of the stairs.
Wu Yu glanced down, a trace of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.
She gritted her teeth and turned back to continue climbing the stairs.
At this moment, green light was rising all over her body. Her energy seemed to have been completely restored, and her climbing pace accelerated. Although her speed was not as fast as Su Wu's, it was not far behind.
Su Wu had no intention of paying attention to Wu Yu at the moment. All he could see was Yuan Ming's back, the figure that still moved forward firmly despite the increasingly fierce attacks.
From time to time, Yuan Ming's body was cut off by wind blades, and his body was scorched black by lightning. However, the power of his blood was burning crazily, and the vigorous vitality continued to repair the wounds on his body, and his pace never slowed down at all.
Yuan Ming has already crossed more than half of the last hundred steps, and is already less than twenty steps away from the top.
When Su Wu saw this, a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes.
His climbing speed has far exceeded that of others, but because Yuan Ming started too early, even if he tried hard to catch up, he still could not reach level 900 at this moment.
"It would be really bad if we let him continue." Su Wu thought to himself.
While thinking about it, he turned his wrist, and a blue-black wooden key appeared in his palm.
This key has a simple style without any traces of carving. It seems to be completely natural. It is the key to the World Tree that he obtained from the hot cave.
Su Wu turned his wrist again, and the key fell vertically and hit the stairs.
The moment the two collided, circles of cyan ripples lit up on the stairs and sank directly into the steps.
The next moment, with the steps under Su Wu's feet as the center, a blue-grey light suddenly spread towards both ends of the steps, transmitting from each step.
At this moment, Wu Yu was only four or five steps away from level 900.
She was about to rush forward with all her strength, but her feet were tightly entangled by the layer of blue-gray light.
She suddenly felt as if she was stuck in the mud. Her feet were entangled by a downward suction force, making it difficult to move any further. She was imprisoned on the steps and unable to move.
At the same time, Yuan Ming's feet also lit up with blue-grey light, and his feet were wrapped in it and could no longer be lifted up.
Not far below, Su Wu's whole body was shrouded in a blue-gray halo, and he continued to walk up quickly, and soon reached the nine hundredth step.
He did not stop to ask for reward, but continued to rush to the higher stairs without stopping.
The overwhelming attacks were unleashed in an instant, but they were all swallowed up by some kind of power in his body and disappeared without a trace.
Su Wu's speed was not affected at all, and the distance between him and Yuan Ming was quickly closing.
"What kind of magical power does this man use? It's more mysterious than Wan Tianren's immortal body. The immortal body can only rely on its almost abnormal recovery ability to break through, but this man seems to be able to absorb all attacks." Under the steps,
Everyone looked at each other.
Each of them can be regarded as a famous person in the outside world, and some of them are even core figures of big forces. They can be said to be well-informed.
But since entering the Three Realms Immortal Boat, almost everything has exceeded their expectations, and unheard of things have happened one after another.
However, they are now the losers. Except for Nan Shangfeng and Wulu, everyone else has no psychological burden and looks at the competition between Yuan Ming and Su Wu with the mentality of watching the excitement.
Yuan Ming's feet were still trapped by the blue-grey light. He sensed that Su Wu was approaching quickly below, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
He suddenly activated the spell, raising the power of the immortal body to the extreme, and blood mist steamed around his body in an instant.
With a low cry, he expanded his arms to both sides, and a huge force burst out from his body, causing ripples visible to the naked eye in the nearby void.
While exerting force, a root of the World Tree emerged from his leg and pierced into the stairs to prevent him from being unable to hold back after breaking free and causing his body to fly into the air.
However, under this huge force that could shake the mountains, the green-gray light that enveloped his feet only flickered slightly, and then returned to normal.
"What kind of magical power is this blue-grey light?"
Yuan Ming's pupils shrank and he began to activate the seven-color vortex of the Hunyuan Dao Seal to wrap around these cyan-gray rays, trying to absorb the spiritual power within, weaken the power of the cyan-gray rays, and then use the power of his immortal body to break free.
At this moment, the movement of his hand froze.
He was vaguely aware that this green-gray light was filled with a familiar aura, which was the unique wood aura of the World Tree.
Yuan Ming was startled at first, and then he felt ecstatic.
The immortal tree in his Dantian seemed to have sensed something, and its roots instantly broke out of the body and naturally penetrated into the steps at his feet, greedily absorbing the tree energy of the world contained in it.
Previously, he had tried to use the roots of the immortal tree to absorb the wood energy in this step, but unexpectedly, there was a mysterious restriction inside the steps, which firmly imprisoned the wood energy in the World Tree.
However, at this moment, due to Su Wu's act of releasing the gray light, the restriction was quietly released.
In this way, there is no longer any obstacle to the wood energy in the steps, allowing Yuan Ming to take whatever he wants.
The wood energy was pure and majestic. After pouring into the Dantian, the Immortal Tree quickly changed. Its branches and leaves became more luxuriant, and the breath of the World Tree became more intense.
At the same time, within the World Tree, the original green light of ten thousand trees flickered. Originally there were only a dozen or so, but at this moment, the number of green lights quickly increased to twenty, thirty, fifty...
Each ray of green light represents Yuan Ming's deeper understanding of the avenue of wood.
As the wood energy inside the steps was continuously sucked away, the blue-grey light shrouding Yuan Ming's feet gradually weakened, like the flame that had lost firewood, and finally dissipated completely.
The restraining force that bound his legs also dissipated, and he regained his freedom.
A flash of joy flashed in Yuan Ming's eyes. He controlled the roots of the immortal tree to continue to extend forward, absorbing the tree energy of the world in the steps in front, sweeping away the blue-gray light one by one, and then continued to climb quickly.
Su Wu had already reached the 950th level at this moment. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help showing surprise in his eyes.
He lightly pinched the magic formula and stepped up the stairs, and saw that the blue-gray light quickly dissipated, and the wood energy of the World Tree became silent again, as if it had never been touched.
Yuan Ming sighed secretly, knowing that he could no longer draw the wood energy from this step, so he retracted the roots of the immortal tree and continued to climb with concentration.
At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from behind.
Yuan Ming looked back and saw that Su Wu's clothes were bulging, and a billowing black energy suddenly surged out of his body, instantly covering his entire body.
The black energy was rich and strange, as if it was alive, swirling around Su Wu.
The next moment, the black energy suddenly flew out, transformed into a black dragon-like form, and rushed straight towards Yuan Ming above.
At the same time, the attacks falling from high in the sky seemed to sense the existence of the black air, and became denser and faster, attacking the billowing black air.
However, what is surprising is that as soon as those attacks entered the black air, they were like mud cows entering the sea, making no sound anymore, as if they were swallowed up by the black air.
The black energy dragon was extremely fast, and within a few breaths, it caught up with Yuan Ming.
Xi Ying's voice sounded in Yuan Ming's ears, her tone solemn: "Be careful, this black energy is extraordinary!"
