"Why don't you leave?" the old man in white asked.
Ye Linyuan simply sat on the ground, leaning against the steps, looking down at the platform: "Senior, what is the path of your steps?
The height increases by 10% every time you go up a floor, which is obviously wrong."
"Why do you continue to talk so much nonsense?"
"You don't have to tell me, then I can just stand here and not leave!" Ye Linyuan crossed his legs, looking like a rogue.
After a long time, the old man in white slowly spoke and told him the significance of this high platform: "Forget it, it's okay to tell you the truth. This high platform has a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine floors.
The height of the first layer represents your current age.
Each subsequent level represents the path of your spiritual practice. If you encounter any shackles that you cannot break through on your spiritual path, they will naturally be reflected on this ladder.
Each time you go up a level, the ladder will increase by 10%. If the shackles have not been resolved after a hundred stairs, it will increase by 20%, and so on."
"No wonder..."
Ye Linyuan frowned slightly, seeming to be deep in thought.
He originally wanted to lure this old man down to crown himself, but now it seems that this method is not advisable.
Just think of another way.
"Okay kid, you can continue."
The old man in white said a lot more: "I have guarded the twenty-eight heavenly palaces for thousands of years, and with your talent, you are definitely among the top ten.
If you continue to climb up, even if you can't climb the last ninety-nine steps, you can still get to the nine hundred steps."
"Thousands of years?"
Ye Linyuan turned around, but did not move forward in a hurry: "Senior, are you not the Demon Emperor?"
"Who told you that I am that boy from Di Jun?"
The old man in white called the Demon Emperor by his name and smiled at Ye Linyuan: "That boy is only the second most talented person I have ever seen. He is almost the same as you. He only appeared after the 800th level.
But he is still slightly better than you, and he probably has the shackles that are only available on the 849th floor."
"That's more than better."
Ye Linyuan sighed, then turned to look at the stairs in front of him: "Senior, what's above the nine hundredth floor?"
"I don't know because only one person has been up there and he didn't tell me."
Ye Linyuan took a step forward and came to the edge of the stairs. He turned his back to the old man and asked, "Who is that person?"
"He was a person from a long time ago. I have also forgotten his name. I only remember that later generations called him the Emperor of Heaven."
"Emperor of Heaven..."
Ye Linyuan has never heard of this title, but Xuying must know it, and he can ask her after he goes out.
He took another step forward and was about to fall off the stairs.
"Don't go down."
The old man in white seemed to have read through his thoughts: "Thousands of years have passed since ancient times, and the most talented creatures are no stupider than you. They have also thought of walking up the stairs again."
"Is this method effective?" Ye Linyuan turned around and asked.
"Normally speaking, as long as you break through the original shackles, it will be useful, but..."
"As long as it works!"
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Linyuan walked down the stairs!
"Why……"
The old man in white immediately sighed: "Young man, turn around and take a look."
Ye Linyuan turned his head when he heard his voice and found that the twentieth floor of stairs behind him had become the same height as the twenty-first floor!
"Don't go down. If you come up now, you still have a chance to board..."
"Now that I'm gone, I don't want to look back!"
Ye Linyuan didn't listen to his dissuasion at all and walked down the nineteen flights of stairs to the eight hundredth floor at the beginning!
'Fortunately, this old man can't stop me. If I really reach the 900th floor, won't I have to inherit another inexplicable crown?
If I weren't afraid of being killed by Senior Han's self-explosion, I wouldn't even want this shadow.'
Ye Linyuan was thinking in his heart, but he couldn't say it with his mouth. He could only turn his head and look forward: "Senior, don't you want to know what is above the nine hundredth floor? How about letting this junior go up and take a look for you?"
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the 801st floor, which was 1.3 meters high in front of him. This height was just a problem for him to climb over.
The old man in white didn't speak, he just watched silently.
He has seen this kind of scene many times. Countless beings who claim to be extremely talented have thought of this method for thousands of years. Although not many have actually implemented it, there are a few.
Some of them were meditating on the spot, some were discussing Taoism with the old men, and some were even practicing here for hundreds of years, but none of them had any effect.
The mountains that should be faced are still there, neither increasing nor decreasing.
Only the Emperor of Heaven, although the old man forgot his name, he still remembered the way he dealt with it when he discovered the shackles.
He only said one sentence.
"Heaven and earth should not stop me."
In just six words, the shackles in front of him were broken and restored to their original height.
Even when we reached the 901st floor, the height was still the same.
No matter from which angle you look at it, it is impossible for the kid in front of you who wants to take advantage of the situation to reach the 900th floor.
"Why……"
The old man in white sighed again, and even wanted to put away the crown.
But at this moment, he seemed to realize that something was wrong!
The height of this staircase... seems to be going down!
"how so?"
The old man in white even took two steps forward and looked at the eight hundred and first steps in front of Ye Linyuan.
With his eyesight, he could clearly distinguish the height of the stairs, which was obviously lower than the height of the previous floor!
"I also want to ask..."
Ye Linyuan was a little speechless. He didn't know if he had said something wrong again: "Senior, is your ladder broken?"
"What nonsense!"
The old man in white scolded him angrily: "Now I give you a chance! Why don't you come up quickly!"
Didn’t you just want to know what to kill? As long as you come up here, you will know who the real enemy of humans and monsters is!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Linyuan looked stern.
He had long felt that there was something wrong with the way humans and demons get along today.
If the two sides were really mortal enemies, the Demon Emperor's unparalleled appearance would have crushed all humans to nothing, but why didn't they take action?
unless……
The crisis of annihilation in this plane is not caused by the demon clan, but by other factors!
"Okay, this is what you said!"
Ye Linyuan couldn't refuse the opportunity to explore the true source of the plane's destruction. Facing the steps that were only one meter long, he just jumped up.
When we reached the 803rd floor, the height indeed dropped again!
He didn't stop any longer and climbed the steps quickly, until he reached the 820th floor just now!
After the steps continued to descend, the step in front of us now is only 18 centimeters high!
The old man in white took a breath of cold air: "How... did you do that?"
"It's simple, because..."
Ye Linyuan spread his hands: "Heaven and earth should not stop me."
