What Xian'er calls a little distance is really a little distance!
After everyone left the Abyss, in addition to traveling in the air at full speed, they also went through three teleportation channels before arriving near the star field where the ladder to heaven is located.
The entire trip took almost a month.
Along the way, everyone’s cultivation did not fall behind.
There are a lot of cultivation resources in the Najies of the Mosu tribe leader and Tianmo, including a lot of high-level Lingkun elixirs.
After Qin Yuxin and the others refined a large amount of cultivation resources, their cultivation base reached a breakthrough again, and everyone was promoted to a small level.
After Ling Hao refined several high-level Lingkun pills in succession, his cultivation level also improved, and he was already halfway into the fifth-level realm.
He knew that breaking through too quickly was not a good thing, so he was not in a hurry to break through to the fifth level. He could improve at any time after his cultivation stabilized.
Zhong Banxian was no exception. With the help of a large amount of training resources and Xian'er, he broke through to the fourth level of trance.
"Miss Zhong, why do I feel that the pressure around me is getting stronger and stronger?" Zhuihun said after everyone came out of the last teleportation channel and continued to move forward for tens of thousands of miles.
Not only did he feel it, everyone including Ling Hao felt the same!
As everyone continues to move forward, the pressure in the void is gradually increasing, although with everyone's current cultivation level, they will not feel too uncomfortable.
But it is obviously abnormal to have such strong pressure in such an open environment.
"This is not far from Tianti City!" Zhong Banxian replied.
"What do you mean?" Zhuihun was stunned for a moment.
"Because of the Heavenly Ladder, the entire Heavenly Ladder City is shrouded in strong pressure, and people below the Yukun realm have difficulty breathing inside." Zhong Banxian added.
"So exaggerated?" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Miss Zhong, you said before that there was someone guarding the ladder, who was that person?" Xuan Chenxi asked.
"People from Tianmeng!" Zhong Banxian responded.
"Tianmeng?" Everyone was stunned at the same time.
It had been a long time since everyone had heard of the Tianmeng. Back then, they had often interacted with the people of the Tianmeng in the seventh-level star field.
When I first came to the eighth-level star field, I met people from the Tianmeng, but then I rarely encountered them. I didn't expect to meet them again now.
"Miss Zhong, are they the Tianmeng of the eighth-level star field or are they?" Bai Hu asked next.
"What kind of heavenly alliance is that in the eighth-level star field? It's just a bunch of people who want to steal the world!" Zhong Banxian responded.
"The people who guard the ladder are all from the Heavenly Alliance in the ninth-level star field, and they are also the Heavenly Alliance in the true sense!"
"Understood!" Bai Hu nodded and continued to ask: "Is the Tianmeng of the ninth-level star field very powerful?"
"You don't need to overestimate them, but you can't underestimate them either!" Zhong Banxian said.
"As the true defenders of order in this universe, they have their own advantages and strength. They are completely different from the Sky Alliance in the seventh-order star field and the eighth-order star field."
"If there is no need, don't conflict with them. There are so many powerful people in the ninth-level star field. One less enemy and one point safer!"
"Understood!" everyone responded.
"Your strength is still too weak. Try to keep a low profile after going to the ninth-order star field." Xian'er on the side said.
"The ninth-order star field is different from other star fields. If you are not careful, you may offend a force that you cannot afford to offend!"
"Yes!" Everyone nodded seriously.
About half an hour later, a 'wall' appeared thousands of meters away from everyone.
It is similar to the 'wall' outside the Abyss. The specific material cannot be seen. There is reality within the void, and there is void within the reality. You can't see the head up, down, left, or right, directly dividing the void into two halves.
Within everyone's sight, there are two platforms extending out from the 'wall', and there are vaguely visible figures walking on each platform.
After a while, everyone landed on one of the platforms. Not far ahead, there were two doors about a hundred feet high. As you entered and exited, there were people guarding under each door.
"Miss Zhong, are those guards from the Ninth-Level Star Territory Heavenly Alliance?" Qinglong asked.
"Yeah!" Zhong Banxian nodded.
"Why is there someone guarding the door when you come out? Is it to prevent people from the ninth-order star field from coming to the eighth-order star field to cause trouble?" Qinglong couldn't help but say something.
"Obviously!" Zhong Banxian added after nodding.
"However, it can only stop some ordinary people. If the truly strong ones want to come to the eighth-level star field, they can't stop them."
"Then why do you have to guard when you go in?" Xuan Pang asked: "Is it because you are afraid that people from the eighth-order star field will go to the ninth-order star field to cause trouble?"
Everyone: ""
"Xuan Pang, didn't you see that those who went in were handing things over to the guards?" Qin Yufei responded: "Obviously they are collecting tolls."
"No way?" Xuan Pang was stunned for a moment and then looked at Zhong Banxian: "Miss Zhong, is it expensive?"
"Five amethyst stones per person!" Zhong Banxian responded.
"Amethyst stone?" Ling Hao and everyone were stunned at the same time. It was obviously the first time they heard of this thing.
"Yeah!" Zhong Banxian nodded.
"The most common hard currency in the ninth-level star field is spar, which is divided into two types: amethyst and black crystal. Amethyst is relatively more common."
"Spars are just like the spiritual stones you came into contact with before, except that the most common amethysts are much more valuable than the highest-level spiritual stones!"
"What is the approximate value of a piece of amethyst?" Xuan Pang asked.
"You can almost exchange it for a high-level Lingkun Pill!" Xian'er replied.
"So valuable?" Xuan Pang shouted and pointed to the door in front: "Then the toll is too expensive? There are so many of us, can we give them a discount?"
Everyone: ""
After a while, Xian'er took out a handful of amethyst from the ring and handed it to the guard before leading everyone into Tianti City.
hiss!
As soon as they entered this space, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. The pressure inside was at least two or three times greater than outside.
Not to mention people below the Yukun realm, even warriors in the early stages of Yukun would probably feel very uncomfortable here.
Everyone noticed that there was a floating city thousands of meters away in mid-air. It was neither big nor small.
What caught everyone's attention the most was that in the center of the city, there was a ladder rising from the ground with no specific material.
The width of the ladder is about a hundred feet, and it reaches straight into the sky, with no end visible at a glance.
In addition, there are ripples on the outside of the ladder. If nothing else, it should be something like a barrier.
"Miss Zhong, that should be the ladder to heaven, right?" The judge pointed to the front opening.
"Didn't I say that the Eighth-Level Star Domain may only have the Sky Talisman in our hands? Then why are there people passing on the ladder?"
"There's only this one outside Tianti City, but that doesn't mean there's nothing inside!" Zhong Banxian responded.
"When there is demand, there will be trade. The Babel Talisman is very precious to people in the eighth-level star field, but for some specific people in the ninth-level star field, it is not difficult to get the Babel Talisman."
"After they obtained the Heavenly Talisman from the Tianmeng through various methods, they would come here to trade."
"This is also the reason why so many people come to Tianti City from outside, otherwise there is no point in them coming here."
"That's it!" Everyone finally understood.
"How much does a piece of Babel Talisman cost?" Xuan Pang asked.
"I don't know the details." Zhong Banxian shook his head: "However, in my estimation, even if you count all the items in the ring, you probably won't be able to exchange for one piece."
"Real or fake? So expensive?!" Xuan Pang couldn't help shouting, and the faces of Zhuihun and the judge also showed signs of surprise.
"It will only be more expensive!" Zhong Banxian then replied.
A quarter of an hour later, everyone arrived at the square at the entrance to the ladder, and there were many people standing in groups.
"The ladder to heaven doesn't belong to your family, why are you guarding it here!" At this moment, a man's voice sounded.
