The material of the Stairway to Heaven didn't look any different from ordinary mountain rocks.
For the first two steps, Chen Qiang didn't feel anything.
It wasn't until the fifth step that Chen Qiang felt that the climb was a bit strenuous.
At this moment, Chen Qiang was already an intermediate spirit blood warlord who had opened 19 acupoints. The fact that he felt it was strenuous was enough to show that the Stairway to Heaven wasn't as ordinary as it looked.
After climbing another 20 steps, Chen Qiang felt that his limbs were starting to feel weak.
After stopping to catch his breath, Chen Qiang climbed up again.
When he reached the 60th step, Chen Qiang began to use both his hands and feet.
At the same time, many people came down from the Stairway to Heaven one after another, dejected.
"Sigh, it looks like I'm still not strong enough! If I can open a few more acupoints, I'll definitely be able to reach the top. Maybe I'll be able to get a share of the treasures. "
"Brother, it shouldn't be ours. We can't look forward to it, right? Only a small number of advanced warlords could reach the top.
But at least we've climbed nearly 300 steps. Look at that guy at the back. He's only reached the 60th step, but he's already sweating. "
The first person to speak looked at his companion's hand and immediately found comfort.
"Haha, it looks like we're not the worst. Just now, that ability user warlord showed off a pair of wings that were nearly seven meters long. I thought he was some advanced ability user warlord, but it turns out he's just a weakling!
Kid, I think you should go down as soon as possible. Why are you making a fool of yourself here? "
"That's why the world is fair. Don't look at that guy's combat strength. In front of the Stairway to Heaven, he can't even catch up to us human warlords!"
Méjolin and the others, who had already come down from the Stairway to Heaven, looked at Chen Qiang, who was far behind, and looked at each other in disbelief.
"What's wrong with Captain? We can still reach the 200th step. How can Captain be so tired at the 60th step? "
"That's right. No matter what, the captain is an intermediate spirit blood battle general. He should be stronger than us, right?"
In the eyes of the Tianwei Generals, although Chen Qiang was not an advanced spirit blood warlord, he had killed at least dozens of advanced spirit blood warlords. His combat strength was definitely not weaker than Zheng Ye and Zhang Yuan.
But now, Zheng Ye and Zhang Yuan had already climbed more than 400 steps, and they still hadn't shown any signs of failure. What was wrong with Chen Qiang?
"Sissy, why don't we go and see what happened to Captain? Why don't we just persuade the captain to step down? "
"No!"
Bookworm Lu Ji stopped Mochou and said, "We can't let others see our relationship with Captain.
What's more, God of Fortune, have you noticed that our captain's body doesn't have any Gang Qi at all?
If I'm not wrong, I think our captain isn't relying on Gang Qi to climb, but only his physical strength! "
Hearing Bookworm Lu Ji's explanation, Méjolin and the others finally noticed that Chen Qiang's body did not have any Gang Qi barrier!
Being able to climb to the 60th step with just physical strength was already shocking enough!
Lu Ji's observation skills were indeed very strong!
Before climbing the Stairway to Heaven, Chen Qiang had already decided not to rely on Gang Qi to climb.
After observing for a while, he realized that the Stairway to Heaven was more like a test of one's perseverance.
Since that was the case, he naturally wanted to use this opportunity to train his physical fitness.
Because he had the Recovery System, Chen Qiang had long paid attention to the values of his body's various indicators.
Especially among the various values, Chen Qiang paid the most attention to Physique.
Although there were people laughing at him from time to time, Chen Qiang was not in the mood to pay attention to them. He wiped his sweat and continued climbing.
After another two hours, Chen Qiang had already climbed to the 94th step!
At this time, Chen Qiang's physical strength had almost reached its limit. Every part of his body was trembling. He tried to climb to the 95th step several times, but in the end, he failed.
Crawling on the 94th step, Chen Qiang looked at the values on the system panel. Physique: 1, Strength: 1, Speed: 1, Mental Power: 34!
After half a day of hard work, Chen Qiang's physical strength had already reached its limit!
"Eh? Isn't this the ability user that came early? I wonder which Mutant King's subordinate he is. He's really a disgrace to us Mutants!
He hasn't even climbed the 100th step and he's already as tired as a dead dog! "
"Hehe, big brother, I saw that he was with Yan Xue, one of King Tianlie's subordinates. Maybe he's one of King Tianlie's people!
Looks like King Tianlie is getting worse and worse these years. Not only are there only two people left in the Emperor Battle Space, but one of them is an embroidered pillow, haha — "
Being ridiculed by two ability users for no reason, Chen Qiang's temper flared up.
"Hehe, you two cowards still have the nerve to talk about others. I think you guys are worse than those exotic beasts up there. Didn't you give up halfway as well? If you say I'm an embroidered pillow, I think you guys are trash! "
The guy who was mocking Chen Qiang stopped laughing when he heard this. He pointed at Chen Qiang and shouted, "Damn it, brat, say that again if you have the guts!"
Chen Qiang used the last of his strength and stretched his neck to scold, "Trash! No, you guys are worse than trash! "
The ability user was enraged by Chen Qiang's scolding and immediately raised his foot to step on Chen Qiang, "You're courting death!"
Chen Qiang, who was lying on the steps, looked like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water. He watched as the ability user's foot came down.
"Second brother, don't!"
The people beside him hurriedly tried to stop him.
However, they were still a step too late.
A clap of thunder rang out in the air. The ability user who was still arrogant just a moment ago turned into ashes in the blink of an eye!
Chen Qiang laughed heartily when he saw this.
The other ability user's eyes were burning with anger, wishing he could eat Chen Qiang alive.
"Come on, bite me!"
Chen Qiang stuck his head out again and continued to provoke him.
The veins on the ability user's forehead were popping out. However, he still snorted coldly in the end and walked down.
"Hmph!"
Chen Qiang snorted coldly as well. He instantly converted all the energy on the system interface into physical strength and other attributes, then stood up like a carp.
Méjolin and the others below saw Chen Qiang brimming with energy again and jumped up in excitement. They looked at each other, then looked at Chen Qiang again.
The ability user who had just walked down the stairs also turned around in surprise. He saw Chen Qiang get up and was full of energy. He could not help but feel sad.
"Second brother, you died such an unjust death!"
Chen Qiang glanced back at the ability user and curled his lips in disdain. "Idiot!"
With that, Chen Qiang climbed up again.
Half a day later, Chen Qiang climbed to the 130th step and his stamina was depleted again!
Chen Qiang sat down and took out two spirit crystals. He placed them in his right hand and converted them into energy.
Host: Chen Qiang
Level: Intermediate Spirit Blood Warrior
Advanced Fusion Card: 1
Ability Selection Card: 7
Energy: 9940300
Recovery Value: 1
Constitution: 389
Strength: 422
Speed: 368
Mental Strength: 758
The spirit crystals Chen Qiang used were much larger than the ones given to him by Wei Xuande, so the energy inside was naturally denser. Two spirit crystals could provide him with 1,000% of his energy.
Also, after exhausting his stamina twice, his constitution and strength had improved greatly!
Chen Qiang was very satisfied with the results of this training. It made him even more determined to test how many steps he could climb using pure physical strength!
Sometimes, he even thought that the Stairway to Heaven was placed here to train the elites of the three forces.
However, Yan Xue had said that there would definitely be more extraordinary treasures waiting for them at the top of the Stairway to Heaven. However, as to what kind of treasure it was, all the people who had climbed the Stairway to Heaven had kept it a secret. Therefore, the elites of the three forces did not know the secret. They could only continue climbing and find the answer themselves.
After recovering his stamina, Chen Qiang set off again!
Three hours later, he reached the 170th step!
Another three hours later, he reached the 190th step!
After dozens of times of exhausting his stamina, the energy provided by the two spirit crystals was completely depleted. Another three days had passed, and Chen Qiang had climbed to the 290th step!
This was a height that even Méjolin, Wang Dalu, Lu Ji and the rest had not reached by relying on their Blood Qi!
However, at the same time, even if Chen Qiang were to climb up in his peak state, he could only climb one step at most. Moreover, he would need to waste more than an hour to succeed.
This meant that with his current cultivation, this was already the limit of his constitution. He had to break through before climbing up!
Thinking of this, Chen Qiang sat down, took out an energy crystal, and placed it in his left hand. He began to absorb the energy within.
In the one and a half years since entering the Emperor Battle Space, Chen Qiang had only broken through one aperture. Moreover, he had done so by absorbing less than ten high-grade Class 2 Beast Crystals.
Chen Qiang had always adhered to King Tianlie's teachings. Before reaching the peak state of each stage, he would not easily break through. Therefore, when he broke through to the 19th aperture, he had successfully broken through with just a few high-grade Class 2 Beast Crystals.
This time, he chose to break through again after his constitution and Blood Qi had reached the peak state.
Méjolin and the rest, who had been observing Chen Qiang from below, saw that Chen Qiang's physical strength had surpassed their previous achievements. They were filled with admiration.
Although Chen Qiang was a mid-grade Spirit Blood Warlord like them, his combat strength was not inferior to that of a high-grade Spirit Blood Warlord. It was not without reason that he could possess such combat strength!
Of course, this did not mean that Chen Qiang could use his physical strength to display the combat strength of Méjolin and the rest when fighting with enemies. However, through this point, Chen Qiang's physical strength and potential far exceeded that of an ordinary person!
Although Chen Qiang did not have the Clear Mind Pure Body like Light Dust and did not have any bottlenecks when breaking through, compared to others, Chen Qiang's difficulty in breaking through apertures was definitely much lower than others!
"Look, our captain is starting to use Earth Qi!"
The sissy said excitedly as he pointed at Chen Qiang, who was sitting cross-legged on the 290th step.
"Eh? Doesn't our captain have a metal-attribute bloodline? Why is it an earth-attribute bloodline? "
"Ruolan, you don't know this, right? I heard from Guo Liang that our captain is a multi-attribute hybrid bloodline cultivator. "
"Multi-attribute hybrid bloodline? Heavens! Captain's perseverance is really strong! It's said that hybrid bloodlines are not easy to cultivate. However, not only is Captain's cultivation speed not slow, his combat strength is also amazing. It's really amazing! "
In order to avoid attracting too much attention, Chen Qiang took a Color Developing Pill before absorbing the energy chip. The Earth Qi shield outside his body turned into an earthy yellow color!
This was the Emperor Battle Space. His cultivation as a mid-grade Spirit Blood Warlord was not worthy of others' attention, so he did not need to disguise himself.
With nineteen apertures opened, the Earth Qi shield outside his body could be seen clearly. The nineteen earthy yellow halos were especially obvious.
At this time, two ability users who had just come down saw Chen Qiang trying to break through and stopped in their tracks. Their expressions changed several times.
"Hmph! When I was below, I saw that the Silver Twisted Wings on this guy's back was almost at Level 7. I thought he was an expert among the high-level ability users and almost called him sir! I didn't expect this kid to be a mid-grade ability user who has only opened nineteen apertures! He's really an idiot with a golden exterior! "
Chen Qiang, who was in the middle of breaking through, opened his eyes when he heard this. He rolled his eyes in disdain and continued to absorb the energy chip in peace.
"Hey! How dare you look down on me! "The high-grade ability user was furious when he saw this, but he was stopped by the ability user beside him.
"Brother, don't fall for his trick! Previously, this kid deliberately angered a ability user when he was climbing the Stairway to Heaven, causing the spatial law to send down a lightning punishment.
This kid is just a mid-grade ability user. No matter how hard he works, it's impossible for him to break through in a short time. How can opening apertures be so easy? It's not like he can break through just because he wants to with energy absorption!
If you want to teach him a lesson, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Why take the risk here?
Once we leave this desert, he'll have a taste of his own medicine! "
Just as the ability user finished speaking, the Earth Qi shield outside Tian Zhui's body trembled and twenty earthy yellow halos appeared!
In a short period of time, Chen Qiang had opened the twentieth aperture!
The ability user had just said that it was impossible for Chen Qiang to break through quickly, but in the blink of an eye, he was slapped in the face and was immediately stunned.
However, Chen Qiang did not immediately get up. Instead, he continued to absorb the energy chip and filled the twentieth newly opened aperture with energy.
"This kid can't be thinking of opening the twenty-first aperture, right?"
"Hmph! Dream on! Does he think that he has a pure heart and body and has no bottlenecks? How is it possible for him to open two apertures in succession? "
With Chen Qiang's current state, it was not a problem for him to continue opening apertures.
However, cultivation was related to his future. He did not want his cultivation plan to be disrupted because of battle aura.
Slowly opening his eyes, Chen Qiang stood up and glanced at the two high-grade ability users. He spat out two words, "Idiots!"
