"This is your real test. Only when you truly reach the end can you obtain the inheritance of the secret realm."
This elevator with no end in sight is the final test for everyone. Only by passing this final test can we truly obtain the secret realm, which is the inheritance of the Soul Palace.
After the old man finished speaking, he took a deep look at the soul shadow and the soul jade, and finally sighed and disappeared in front of everyone.
Feeling the old man's gaze, Hunying silently took a step back.
I'm afraid no one except Soul Shadow and Soul Jade knows what the old man's sigh represents.
"Miss, now the test has begun, let's set off." Xue Ling looked at the towering ladder and turned to Luo Qingchen beside her and said.
"You go ahead, I'll wait for him to wake up before moving on."
When Luo Qingchen heard this, he had the choice to set off immediately, but to wait until Zhang Chen woke up before continuing forward.
"Alas..."
Xue Ling knew her young lady's character. Since this was something Luo Qingchen had already decided, there was nothing he could do to change her mind.
In the end, all the words turned into a sigh, but Xue Ling did not choose to leave, but stood silently behind Luo Qingchen.
Lin Qianxue did not choose to leave, but wanted to wait until Zhang Chen woke up and then follow him to climb the ladder.
Others have already rushed to the ladder, and there are only four of them staying silently under this stone monument.
I don't know how much time passed, but Zhang Chen woke up slowly. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Luo Qingchen's worried look.
"You're awake!"
Seeing Zhang Chen wake up, Zhang Chen took back his hand without leaving a trace and stood up.
"Well, where are they?"
Looking around, Zhang Chen found that everyone else had disappeared, leaving only the four of them still here.
"They have all completed this final test." Luo Qingchen pointed to the ladder next to him and said.
"Okay, in that case let's set off."
He knew in his heart that the main reason why Luo Qingchen hadn't set off yet was to wait for him to wake up.
Zhang Chen could more or less see what Luo Qingchen was thinking.
But Zhang Chen never pointed it out. The main reason was that she was afraid that the relationship between the two would become stiff.
Looking at Zhang Chen's back, Luo Qingchen raised his eyebrows slightly unconsciously, and then followed Zhang Chen up the ladder.
Xue Ling, who was left at the end, looked at the two people in front of her in surprise. Of course, what surprised her most was that her young lady actually had someone she liked.
Lin Qianxue looked at the three 500 million-looking people with a flash of doubt in her eyes. In the end, she really couldn't figure it out and could only ignore the thought and follow the three of them to the ladder together.
"This ladder is not easy. Have you noticed that after you climb these steps, your body becomes very heavy."
Zhang Chen did not notice these changes when he first climbed the stairs, and the main reason at that time may be that the gravity was not a special influence
But after walking up dozens of stairs, I could already feel a resistance blocking my ascent.
"I also discovered that this kind of gravity was not particularly obvious at the beginning, or it was like nothing at all, but every time we go up a step, the gravity will deepen."
It's just that the current gravity doesn't have much effect on me.
"Be careful and try to avoid using spiritual power to repel these gravity. The more you repel these gravity, the more terrifying the suppression will be on you."
The four of them did not use spiritual energy to speed up the ladder like the previous ones. This would only make the gravity on them greater than others.
But Zhang Chen and the four of them were not too anxious to get to the top.
This kind of climbing without using spiritual power makes Zhang Chen and the others feel much less pressure than others.
I don’t know how much time has passed, but the moment I stepped onto this ladder, the surrounding space and time stopped rotating.
So it can be said that there is almost no concept of time here.
The four of them climbed up little by little, and finally saw the soul shadow and soul jade above, as well as the unknown Guiyang Sect disciple.
Of these three people, except for the soul jade, which was fine and could easily cope with the current gravity, the soul shadow and the supply sect disciple were both out of breath.
Obviously they have reached the limit of what they can bear.
Zhang Chen felt a little surprised about this man in black. At this moment, even Zhang Chen knew about him and actually misjudged him.
Originally, Zhang Chen had always felt that the mastermind behind it was actually Hun Ying.
But until this moment, the real manipulator really appeared, but there was something wrong with the attitude between the two.
This Hun Jade has a respectful attitude towards Hun Ying, whether in work or in other aspects.
Obviously, the man in black actually obeys the soul shadow, but the one who is really difficult to deal with among these three people is this man in black.
But looking at their appearance now, it is obvious that they are affected by this gravity, and their rising speed has become slower and slower, otherwise I would not have caught up with them.
"It's you!"
Looking at Zhang Chen and the others below, Hunying's eyes flashed with a dangerous light.
"Young man, let me advise you not to do some meaningless things. In the end, you may be dragged into the abyss by him."
This is what Hun Ying said to him, and now he has sent everything back intact.
Looking at Hun Ying's eyes that looked like he was about to peel off his own cramps, Zhang Chen smiled as if he hadn't seen it, and then walked up beside a few people.
"Do you want me to kill them?" Hun Yu's eyes under the black cloak revealed a hint of murderous intent.
"It's not the right time to take action here. We can wait until we reach the end."
The soul shadow prevents the movement of the soul jade. This ladder is very repulsive to spiritual power. As long as you use your spiritual power on the way up the ladder, the gravity you experience can increase exponentially.
In addition, I don’t know much about Zhang Chen now, so it’s best to wait until we reach the end of the ladder to learn about all this world.
"Okay, you hold my shoulders for the rest of the way, and I will take you up."
Upon hearing this, Hunying stretched out his hand and placed it on Hunyu's shoulder, at the moment the two people touched each other.
The huge gravity that the soul jade originally endured doubled in an instant. It can almost be said that he alone withstood the gravity of two people.
"Let's go."
As for the disciple of Guiyang Sect, his identity is actually a false identity set up for him by Hunying after taking control of Guiyang Sect.
I'm afraid no one knows the true identity of this silent Guiying Sect disciple.
But one thing can prove that he will always be behind Soul Shadow, just like a loyal guard.
And the most surprising thing is that this person seems to be unable to feel the existence of any gravity. It can be said that he is almost walking on flat ground on this ladder.
As Zhang Chen and the others got closer and closer to the finish line, they finally felt a huge force of gravity pressing down on themselves.
The current gravity is still very easy for Zhang Chen and Luo Qingchen to accept.
But Xue Ling and Lin Qianxue, who had been following the two of them, wouldn't have felt so comfortable, if it weren't for the fact that Zhang Chen had been taking them along for the rest of the journey.
I'm afraid they have already fallen down the ladder because they couldn't bear the terrifying gravity.
"Zhang Chen this time is different from before. We are satisfied up to this point. You two should leave first. You have more important things to do than us."
Lin Qianxue didn't want to continue to drag Zhang Chen down like last time. After all, with the abilities of the two of them, there was no way they could reach such a high place.
It was Zhang Chen and Luo Qingchen who dragged the terrifying gravity and asked them to bring them up. They are already very content now.
"Okay!"
Zhang Chen also knows in his heart that if he doesn't make a choice now, all four of them will be eliminated because they can't bear such terrible pressure. Rather than doing this, it is better to make a choice now.
"Miss, Xiao Linger is very happy to see you again, and I am very satisfied to be able to fight side by side with you. I will wait below for your triumphant return."
As Luo Zhangchen and Luo Qingchen let go of their hands, Lin Qianxue and He Xuelian disappeared directly in front of them because they could not bear such terrifying pressure.
When I waited for them to appear again, they had already returned to the secret realm.
Seeing Lin Qianxue and Xue Ling suddenly appearing in front of them, all the Xuanyang Sect disciples showed expressions of surprise.
"Senior sister, why are you back suddenly? Are Senior Brother Zhang Chen and Senior Sister Luo Qingchen still up there?"
After seeing Luo Qingchen, several disciples hurriedly asked the questions in their hearts.
"Yes, they are now participating in the final test. I think you will be able to hear good news about them soon."
Lin Qianxue raised her head and took a look. How many portraits were there above her head?
Now among the five portraits above, except for the three people wearing black cloaks, the remaining two are Zhang Chen and Luo Qingchen.
This means that among the four major sects, only two of them are still there, and the rest have been completely eliminated.
……
……
After Lin Qianxue and Xue Ling left, the gravity endured by Zhang Chen and Luo Qingchen suddenly disappeared a lot.
Although I know that if they disappear like this, there won't be any big problems, but seeing the people around me suddenly leaving like this makes me feel a little uncomfortable.
"According to rough calculations, there should be less than 1/3 of the distance left. Since we could use spiritual power to isolate suction and buoyancy when passing through the black and white area before, I think it should be possible here too."
Zhang Chen tentatively released the power of his soul, and he felt that he was in contact with the ladder.
Sure enough, the gravity I experienced was smaller than before, although I could still feel some vague gravity.
"Sure enough, it works. Since this secret realm is the ruins of the Soul Palace, everything in it is probably related to the power of the soul, so you can also tentatively release some soul power to isolate yourself from the ladder.
”
According to Zhang Chen's method, I really felt that the gravity that my body could bear was slightly smaller than before, but it was not particularly obvious.
"Let's go, there's still a little distance left."
Afterwards, the two of them continued walking upward, and the last 1/3 of the distance was the most difficult journey for everyone.
Because the gravity released by the ladder is about to reach an extreme point.
But as long as you can endure this final journey, the final test of the secret realm will be completely in front of everyone.
When Zhang Chen and the others were climbing the ladder to heaven, in an independent space in this secret realm, several people were watching these five people climbing the ladder to heaven.
"Tianjizi, this is what you call me, the future of the Soul Palace, right? Although both of them are very good, you should clearly see that these two people are not suitable for the inheritance of my Soul Palace.
."
The old man who appeared under the stone monument before looked at Tianjizi beside him in this mysterious space and said.
"Hahaha, Old Man Soul, you are still so stubborn. Today's era, as time goes by, is no longer the era in your memory. You must also learn to be flexible, otherwise, Soul Palace will eventually disappear in the long river of history.
in."
Although the power of the Soul Palace slowly grew in the beginning, it finally caused a fourth-level sect force to take action.
In fact, at that time, if the Soul Palace had a head-on duel with this sect, it was really uncertain who would lose and who would win, but the problem lies here.
Although the gap in strength between the two parties is not particularly large, Yili cannot withstand this fourth-level sect because of its long history and profound foundation.
Later, the Soul Palace was breached even though the fourth-level sect united with another sect to take action. Hong Gong's senior officials wanted to allow Hong Gong to be passed down forever.
They decisively abandoned the mountain gate, entered this secret realm, and set up mechanisms and inheritance, just to wait for someone who could afford to revive the power of the Soul Palace to appear.
But decades ago, Hun Ying entered this secret realm by chance. In fact, Hun Ying had another identity. He was the daughter of the then Master of the Hun Ying Palace.
When the two major sects everywhere attacked the Soul Palace, Soul Shadow happened to be practicing outside, so he was able to escape the disaster.
When Soul Shadow returned to the sect after completing his training, all he saw were devastated ruins.
There are also corpses scattered throughout the sect, and there are no other living beings besides them.
