Ye Linyuan entered the Heavenly Palace, but did not see the magnificence he had imagined, nor did he see the legendary secret treasure of Heaven.
He just saw a beam of light falling in the endless darkness, which happened to shine on a high platform and the old man in white on the high platform.
The old man looked at him and smiled, with a crown hanging vacant beside him, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
Ye Linyuan did not step forward, but turned his head and glanced behind him.
After confirming that there was no way out here, he sighed and walked towards the high platform.
He walked slowly to the high platform, but still did not step onto the steps: "Senior, I still want to ask a question."
"You have so many problems!"
The old man in white was a little speechless, but he still allowed him to ask: "What do you want to ask, ask quickly!"
"Can I still go out?"
"When you reach the point where you can't walk anymore, you can naturally go out."
"I said it now."
The old man in white squinted his eyes and did not answer him.
"Yeah, I get it."
Ye Linyuan was a little speechless, but he still walked up the stairs: "It's really troublesome. Senior, why do you think I am doing this?
Now, if I leave my shadow here, what’s the difference between leaving my shadow here and lingering on my last breath?”
The old man in white still didn't answer him, he just stared at Ye Linyuan's footsteps, as if it was interesting to see him climb the stairs.
"senior?"
Ye Linyuan had already walked more than a dozen steps when he saw that the old man in white ignored him and looked up at the stage: "You are a demon... No, the Holy Emperor, right?"
The Demon Emperor is above the Eighth Grade. If there is anyone who can look down on the Eighth Grade from a high position, it is probably only him.
He was also wearing white clothes now, but he looked like an old man. Ye Linyuan didn't dare to confirm, so he had to ask.
The old man in white finally paid attention to him: "If you want to know the answer, come up here. I'll tell you when you come up."
"Okay!"
Ye Linyuan quickened his pace, and it was not a problem to cross two or three steps at a time.
The first four to five hundred steps were fine, but after reaching the six hundred steps, Ye Linyuan's speed still did not slow down!
The old man in white suddenly widened his eyes and looked in front of him in disbelief!
This high platform has a total of 999 steps. The first 900 steps, each hundred steps represent a realm.
As long as he crosses a hundred steps, it means he can achieve the first level, and if he crosses 800 steps, he can achieve the eighth level!
Most of the ordinary creatures who enter the Heavenly Palace will reach the 800th floor, but every step they take is extremely difficult.
Because this step represents not only potential, but also the shackles on their path of cultivation!
For example, some creatures will encounter shackles in the sixth-level realm. Then each level they go up after level 600 will increase by 10%.
If there are still shackles after level 7, it will be 20% higher after level 700, and so on.
Unless climbers can solve this shackles from the source on the stairs, this increase will continue.
Although this increase is not obvious, if there are hundreds of layers stacked up, it will be even more difficult to climb the steps after 800 than climbing to the sky!
This is the real step to reach the sky!
The old man in white stands on the 900th step, representing the real separation between immortals and mortals!
If the visitor can walk in front of him, he can be crowned by him and become half the master of this heavenly palace!
If you can't reach this position, you can only leave a shadow here.
But Ye Linyuan...
Now he has reached level 600 or above, but the high platform in front of him is still flat, and each step is the same height as before, without any difference!
He quickly went up the hundredth floor and came to the seven hundredth staircase!
When Ye Linyuan stepped onto the 700th step of the stairs, the old man in white's brows visibly jumped!
No!
Why hasn’t it increased yet?
The old man in white saw Ye Linyuan quickly going up to more than fifty floors. He couldn't help but stop him: "Wait! Wait!"
"Um?"
Ye Linyuan was puzzled, but he still stood where he was, looking up at the old man not far away: "Senior, what's wrong?"
"You walk slower..."
The old man in white frowned as soon as he finished speaking, as if he felt a little rude: "Forget it, you should just walk at a normal speed."
Ye Linyuan:(￣ー￣)?
He didn't know what was special about this step, so naturally he didn't understand what the old man in white meant.
But in order to leave this strange heavenly palace as soon as possible, he continued to climb forward at the same speed.
One hundred steps passed quickly.
Now that he has reached the 800th level, he feels a little tired whether it is because the Star Soul has not inherited the physique or for other reasons.
"call……"
Ye Linyuan took a breath and waved to the old man above: "Senior, let me rest for a while. This thing is still a little tired from climbing."
"You...can you call it tired?"
The old man in white was a little speechless. He had seen countless creatures climb this long staircase, but this was the first time he had seen one climb so easily.
"I'm really tired..."
Ye Linyuan took a breath and continued walking upward.
As soon as he took one step, he found that the steps under his feet were slightly higher.
Adhering to the good habit of asking questions when you don't understand, Ye Linyuan asked without thinking: "Senior, why is this step higher?"
This eight hundred steps has only increased by 10%, what else do you want!
The old man in white roared in his heart, but on the outside he remained calm and responded in a very ordinary way: "Oh, this is normal, just keep moving forward."
"All right."
Ye Linyuan responded and continued to climb the long steps.
The old man in white stared at his feet carefully, and finally saw that the steps were getting higher and higher.
'I thought this kid didn't have the shackles of the ninth rank. He almost could have climbed to the last level of this heavenly palace.
That’s right, one genius like that every few thousand years is enough. If there are more, I can’t stand it.’
Ye Linyuan has only stepped on more than twenty steps, and now the steps in front of him are already as high as his chest!
If he were an ordinary person, he would have to climb over such a step, right?
"Senior, are you sure this is normal?"
Ye Linyuan looked up at the old man in white in the sky: "These are not steps anymore, are they?"
The old man in white glanced at him and uttered two words: "Continue."
'There's definitely something wrong with this!'
Ye Linyuan estimated that from the first floor to the 800th floor, the height of all steps has not changed.
Only above these eight hundred floors, almost every step will be 10% higher than the previous one!
The steps were originally only 18 centimeters, but after the 20th floor, they were about 1.2 meters high!
If it continues to increase like this, wouldn't the 900th floor be more than 2,000 meters high?
This is nothing to a seventh-grade monk. At most, it just means that the flying time in the air becomes longer.
But Ye Linyuan is still only at the third level, and it is almost impossible to climb to such a high level!
