Only by walking through these thousand stone steps can one bathe in the 'immortal brilliance'? After Zhang Li understood this, he immediately couldn't help but feel sad for those Nine Desolate Realm cultivators who had always wanted to enter the True Immortal City. Even if they could enter the True Immortal City, So what, these thousand stone steps are simply not something that ordinary Qi Cauldron realm cultivators can easily step on.
"Brother Xia, it's amazing that you can actually reach the 499th stone step." A Qi Cauldron Realm cultivator helped Xia Zhengming up and said politely and flatteringly.
When Zhang Li heard this, he immediately turned his head and looked at Xia Zhengming. He found that although the cultivators next to him were complimenting him, Xia Zhengming's face was a little ugly. It seemed that he was extremely dissatisfied with his 'achievement'. Xia Zhengming raised his head and stared. He walked up the 500th stone step to his waist, with a look of resentment and unwillingness in his eyes.
Zhang Lisuan could tell. This Xia Zhengming originally wanted to break through the 500th level of stone steps, but in the end he seemed to have bad luck and only reached the 499th level. However, these did not matter to him. relationship, so Zhang Li quickly turned his head again, staring at the stone steps and lost in thought.
After a while, Zhang Li raised his feet and stepped on the stone steps again. This time, he was extremely cautious, and his spiritual consciousness immediately left the body and followed the feeling under his feet. The five elements of divine power in his body quickly released the resistance without hesitation. .With the help of divine power, Zhang Li could very easily sense the rhythm of the strange power that bounced off the stone steps.
As the saying goes, 'One thing can lead to all things'. After Zhang Li thoroughly studied the power that popped up on the first stone step, he immediately began to carefully study the power that popped up on the second stone step.
Gradually, Zhang Li seemed to find some clues by comparing the two stone steps. In order to thoroughly study, Zhang Li did not slack off at all and directly stepped on the third stone step. And Zhang Li stepped on the third step. When climbing the stone steps, I also used some tips found on the first two stone steps.
Sure enough, it suddenly became extremely easy to step onto the third level of stone steps. Following the same pattern, when Zhang Li relied on his divine power to thoroughly study the first five stone steps, he finally determined some of the rhythm tips.
"Hahahahaha." Zhang Li suddenly stood on the sixth stone step and laughed wildly. Xia Zhengming and others who were about to leave suddenly stopped and looked at him with puzzled expressions. It was almost 'extremely difficult', and it took Zhang Li nearly half an hour to barely reach the sixth stone step!
One of the Qi Cauldron Realm men was suddenly surprised and said: "Has this kid figured out the 'rhythm' in it?"
"How is that possible? Have you ever seen someone figure out the 'rhythm' after only stepping on six stone steps?"
"That's right. Even our first genius, Brother Xia, seems to have figured out the rhythm after stepping on the twelfth level of stone steps, right?"
The cultivators immediately began to discuss each other's words. But the final result was the same. That is, they believed that Zhang Li could never have figured out the 'rhythm secret'. The reason is naturally obvious, that is Xia Zhengming has already used twelve stone steps, and it is impossible for anyone else to be more powerful than Xia Zhengming.
"Let's go, stop looking. This guy is an outsider. He's probably going too slow and is going crazy." When one of the Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators said this, several people laughed and prepared to leave. But not yet. When they turned around, they all suddenly froze there. The expressions on their faces were extremely wonderful.
Zhang Li, who was originally stagnant, suddenly became as fast as flying. Starting from the sixth stone step, he ran to the 300th stone step in one breath.
"##￥, this, this, how is it possible?!"
"Isn't it dazzling?" Several Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators were completely confused. They all rubbed their eyes and couldn't believe what they saw.
Xia Zhengming's eyes flashed with jealousy and resentment. As the most talented cultivator in the True Immortal City, how could he tolerate others' surpassing him? Thinking of this, Xia Zhengming immediately moved. , and began to climb the stone steps again.
"Brother Xia..." Those Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators were suddenly shocked and seemed to want to stop Xia Zhengming, but it was too late.
"Hey, it will take at least ten years now. We can't compare to Xia Zhengming, so let's go."
"Where are we going? How many years have we encountered something so interesting? If you want to leave, you can leave, but I won't leave." The Qi Cauldron Realm man who helped Xia Zhengming get up curled his lips, and then immediately sat cross-legged, feeling very happy. He stared at Zhang Li and Xia Zhengming with interest.
The few remaining cultivators looked at each other, then at Xia Zhengming, and then at Zhang Li, and they also thought it was interesting. After the last discussion, they all stayed and prepared to see the whole thing. But they all knew very well that it was said that five hundred It would take at least ten years to climb the stone steps above level 100.
In the True Immortal City, except for the three terrifying old men who make people tremble just by mentioning their names, I have never heard of anyone who has completely stepped through the thousand stone steps and truly bathed in the fairy glow. of.
Zhang Li saw Xia Zhengming suddenly starting to climb the stone steps again, and he immediately guessed what he was thinking. People who are proud of their talents often cannot stand the provocation and surpassing of others. He saw that Xia Zhengming quickly climbed to the 400th level. Fifty stone steps, and then the speed slowed down so fast.
Shaking his head slightly, Zhang Li decided not to be affected by it anymore. It didn't matter how many steps Xia Zhengming stepped on, it didn't matter to him. Zhang Li just wanted to step on the pillar door that reached into the sky and see what was there. Look, how could Xuanyuan Qing be 'sucked away' by a strange light emitting from the pillar door?
Thinking of Xuanyuan Qing's safety, Zhang Li stopped thinking about anything else and immediately began to thoroughly study the 'rhythm trick' on the 301st stone step. As expected, the difficulty doubled. Zhang Li felt nervous, knowing that he wanted to completely It would be absolutely impossible to climb these thousand stone steps within a few decades.
But there is no point in hurrying. You have to eat the food one bite at a time, and you have to step on the stone steps step by step. Fortunately, Zhang Li's soul power is indeed powerful, and he was originally the soul of the fifth generation, the devil of the first generation, the demon of the first generation, and the civilization and technology of the first generation. In this life, in the small world of the Seventh Realm, the most mysterious soul of the first life that has always been almost invisible to any powerful cultivator, including Zhang Li himself, has slowly revealed a clue.
In this way, Zhang Li's soul power is like a previously sealed embankment, suddenly revealing a small gap, and a powerful torrent pours out. As the torrent continues to flow out, this sealed embankment Sooner or later, it will collapse suddenly, and all the floods will fill Zhang Li's soul ocean. Therefore, at this moment, after Zhang Li concentrated his energy, he realized that the 'rhythm' of the strange power on the stone steps was many times faster.
In this way, day after day, year after year. Ten years passed quickly. On this day, Zhang Li had already stepped on the 400th stone step. And he took a glance and found that Xia Zhengming had already stepped on The 599th stone step. As if he was trapped there, Xia Zhengming looked quite haggard.
"Look, Zhang Li has already reached the 400th level. Brother Xia is still wandering around the 599th level." The Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators watching the battle suddenly said in surprise.
"Zhang Li's talent is no weaker than Xia Zhengming's, even..." At this point, the cultivator who spoke suddenly fell silent. But everyone already understood what he meant. That is Zhang Li's talent, even..." Still above Xia Zhengming.
When they learned of this result, several Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators suddenly felt their throats rolling dryly, and their eyes also showed a slight look of jealousy and dissatisfaction. But soon, they also accepted their fate. Some things, for cultivators For those who can afford it, it is still affordable to put it down.
"I haven't waited in vain for ten years. Now let's see who among them can break through to the seven hundred stone steps first."
Zhang Li frowned, and then he stepped up to the 499th stone step as easily as if he were taking a leisurely stroll. After staying here for about a year, he suddenly took a step forward and stepped on the stone steps. We reached the 500th stone step. At this time, Xia Zhengming was still lingering on the 599th stone step.
"It seems that Xia Zhengming has been caught up again. The further you get to the back, the harder it will be." Those Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators sighed while talking.
"If Brother Xia is caught up, he will definitely be murderous according to his character. He will never tolerate others surpassing him."
"However, this Li is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. It has been so long, and there has been no movement in the Immortal Glory Holy Realm. It seems that the three seniors have obviously acquiesced to their approach."
Soon, another five years passed. Zhang Li had reached the 599th stone step. But just as he was level with Xia Zhengming, Xia Zhengming suddenly laughed wildly, and then stepped forward violently, Standing on the 600th stone step.
"Zhang Li, if you want to catch up with me, you can do it in the next life. Hahahahahaha." I have to say that Xia Zhengming was extremely excited at this moment. When he saw Zhang Li catching up more and more, the sense of superiority in his heart became lower and lower. .Until the murderous intention slowly filled his mind. He had already thought that as long as Zhang Li caught up with him and he still failed to break through to the 600th level, he would take action to kill Zhang Li.
Although Zhang Li killed Ling Yunzhi and defeated Zhou Tianshui, Xia Zhengming still believed that Zhang Li was not his opponent. Because he, Xia Zhengming, was much higher than Zhou Tianshui, Ling Yunzhi and the like.
Fortunately, at the moment when Zhang was about to tie him, he broke through to level 600. As far as he was concerned, Zhang Li was left behind for at least fifteen years.
Just when the Qi Cauldron Realm cultivators who were watching the battle breathed a sigh of relief and were about to continue watching this invisible 'stepping on stone' competition, they were suddenly transformed into stone figures by a scene that they had never expected. They were motionless there. Even the expressions on their faces froze for a moment. Their worldview in this world of cultivation seemed to collapse at this moment.
Because they saw that after Xia Zhengming laughed wildly, Zhang Li raised his steps so fiercely, and then landed steadily on the 600th stone step. In an instant, Zhang Li's steps were like a swift and heavy hammer. It hit Xia Zhengming's heart, which was beating excitedly just now.
