Father Wang, who was sitting cross-legged under the Heaven Stepping Bridge, slowly opened his eyes. He glanced calmly at Wang Baole and nodded. He remained sitting cross-legged on the spot, but he raised his right hand and waved casually at the Heaven Stepping Bridge behind him.
As he waved his hand, the sky changed, and the wind screamed. Rumbling sounds echoed out in all directions as the first Heaven Trampling Bridge began to shine with boundless light. At the same time, a stone stele appeared next to the bridge, transforming from illusory to corporeal form.
An archaic aura filled the air, and the feeling of time passing by grew more distinct. It echoed out in all directions, and a vortex sprang up in the area.
This vortex was extremely large and seemed to cover the sky. However … if one looked up from the Immortal Astral Continent, the sky was still the same and hadn't changed at all.
It was as if everything was just an illusion.
As the whirlpool, which no one could see, rumbled and spun, Wang Baole, who was at the center of the whirlpool, was also affected. However, he quickly calmed himself down and looked at the stone tablet that had already formed in front of the bridge. The words were slowly appearing on it.
It was an unknown language. Wang Baole had never seen it before, but the moment he looked at it, the words appeared in his mind. It was as if he instinctively knew what they were, and its meaning surfaced.
"Heaven Trampling Bridge, Void Annihilation Dao, Immortal Soul, All Life Worships."
Each of the twelve words exuded a sense of supremacy that shook Wang Baole's soul. He felt that the wind around him seemed to be stronger, the vortex seemed to be spinning faster, and the aura of time and vicissitudes seemed to be getting stronger.
As his mind was affected by these 12 words, the world rumbled once more and a second stone tablet appeared on the other side of the stone tablet. It was the same size as the first stone tablet, but it was even more powerful. The moment it appeared, the entire Immortal Astral Continent seemed to tremble.
There were also 12 words on it.
"Supreme Will, Reincarnation Tremble, Spirit of the Universe, All Dao Kowtow!"
Looking at the words on the second stone tablet, a storm brewed in Wang Baole's heart again. Vaguely, he seemed to see an image. In the image, there was a familiar figure. Countless years ago, the figure had raised his hand in front of the bridge and gathered the mysterious energy from the universe. After forming the stone tablet, the figure had used his finger as a pen to write the words.
Every word caused the cosmos to tremble. When all twelve words were written, a blinding light erupted from the cosmos, and the cosmos seemed to be swept up in waves. The person who had written the twelve words turned his head at that moment. In Wang Baole's eyes, that person was … Father Wang!
The image disappeared, and Wang Baole's breathing quickened. He looked at Father Wang, who was sitting cross-legged beside him, and saw the latter's calm eyes. He recalled what Father Wang had said calmly when he had first arrived on the Immortal Astral Continent and seen the eleven palaces in the cosmos.
"This bridge collapsed many years ago and was later repaired by me. From nine bridges to eleven bridges, one can cross the Heaven Trampling Bridge."
After a long time, Wang Baole withdrew his gaze. When he looked at the first bridge again, his eyes shined brightly. Without a word, he charged toward the first Heaven Trampling Bridge.
He wasn't fast, but he only took six steps to reach the bridge. When he took the seventh step, Wang Baole's right foot stepped onto the first bridge.
The moment he stepped onto the bridge, ripples appeared in Wang Baole's eyes. He could clearly feel that at that moment, his body and soul seemed to have been elevated to a higher level. Vast amounts of Heavenly Laws and Dao energy gathered from all directions, arriving from the universe, descending from the cosmos, and spreading from the bridge.
They surged toward his body like crazy. Wang Baole had never felt this kind of feeling before. The integration of endless dao and laws caused a shocking storm to appear in Wang Baole's mind.
Inside this storm, his understanding of all the laws increased at an unimaginable speed. The five elements inside his body became even more complete and his aura became even more violent. Countless different types of dao continued to collide inside his body and fuse with the five elements.
A sense of warmth continued to form and spread throughout his body. The parts of his body that he didn't notice before were covered in ice and ice, causing his entire body to feel extremely warm.
It was just like before. Although he looked complete, there were some flaws in his body and soul. He was missing some fragments, but now those missing fragments were rapidly filling up.
All of this resulted in Wang Baole standing at the head of the bridge as soon as he stepped onto the first bridge. His eyes were shut, and he was motionless.
The entire process lasted for five minutes before Wang Baole finally got used to the influx of Dao aura and nomological laws into his body. When he opened his eyes, the image of the cosmos seemed to appear in his eyes. The aura on his body also began to rise at that moment.
More and more powerful!
Although it was only the distance of one step between the bridge and the bridge, Wang Baole felt as if the person on the bridge and under the bridge were two completely different people.
Beneath the bridge, although he was powerful, his power was limited.
Above the bridge, he gained enlightenment of all the laws, and was able to fuse with the endless dao. Therefore … he was even more powerful!
Because of this, Wang Baole looked down at the Heaven Trampling Bridge with a strange expression in his eyes.
"So this is … the Heaven Trampling Bridge?" As he muttered to himself, a glimmer flashed across Wang Baole's eyes. He took a step forward and stepped onto the first Sky Bridge.
With every step he took, he could feel it more deeply. His comprehension increased a little, and his body also became more relaxed. Most importantly, with every step he took, his soul became more and more transparent.
It was in this way that he walked faster and faster across the bridge, and his aura grew more and more shocking.
In the end, when he reached the end of the bridge, his aura was monstrous, causing everything in the area to tremble. The vortex in the area spun faster, and the energy grew stronger.
That was because the gift from the first bridge, the transformations of the natural laws of Heaven and Earth, as well as the blessings of the Dao, had been branded into Wang Baole's mind, and could not be erased.
More importantly, at this moment, Wang Baole's body appeared to be one entity, and it was as if he had achieved perfection!
This was the First Heaven Trampling Bridge!
Its function was to allow cultivators to sense all of the laws and Dao of the universe. Although it was only a cursory glance, it was enough to expand a cultivator's understanding of the Dao, and turn the limited into the infinite.
To Wang Baole, the first bridge had another gift, and that was … Dao Mending!
Wang Baole came from the World of the Stone Steles, a world where the Dao and magical laws were incomplete. Although he had reached the pinnacle of perfection, and had come to the multiverse to make up for it, he had still lived in the World of the Stone Steles. Therefore, in a fundamental sense, there were still some minor flaws that would be difficult to fix in a short time.
Now that he had reached the end of the first bridge, his body had become a Dao Body, and his soul had become a Dao Soul.
Everything was perfect!
Wang Baole shuddered. Standing at the end of the bridge, he raised his head and looked into the distance. He could see the second bridge in front of him, as well as the gigantic bridges behind it. They were like rainbows that shook the heavens.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Baole's body flickered as he stepped off the first bridge and flew toward the second!
