Zhuo Bufan, Donghuang Hao Tian, and Geba were brought to another dimension by the Xuan Tan.
When the three of them opened their eyes, they found themselves in complete darkness.
Specks of starlight flickered in places that were both near and far.
They seemed to have arrived in the void, and beneath their feet was a platform made of white jade.
In front of them was a jade staircase that led to the sky.
At the top of the staircase, there was a huge meteorite, like a majestic mountain.
On the meteorite, there was a palace shrouded in countless stars.
"That's the Tianxing Tomb?"
Zhuo Bufan looked at the palace at the top and couldn't help but say with some excitement.
"It should be the Tianxing Tomb."
"It really wasn't easy. After searching for so long, we finally found the Tianxing Tomb."
"Let's go. I've been waiting for this moment for too long."
After Zhuo Bufan finished speaking, he began to step on the jade staircase and headed towards the palace at the top.
The three of them were very fast and soon climbed one-third of the way up.
But at this moment, Donghuang Hao Tian stopped and said.
"Brother Zhuo, wait a minute. Did you find anything wrong?"
When Zhuo Bufan heard this, he frowned slightly.
"I don't know if it's my illusion, but why do I feel that this staircase is getting more and more tiring?"
"I feel it too. The gravity seems to increase a lot with every step."
"This is the gravity staircase. With every step we take, the pressure we have to bear increases."
"Could this be the Qing Emperor's Staircase to Heaven?"
As a descendant of the Qing Emperor, Donghuang Hao Tian still didn't know much about his ancestor.
"Staircase to Heaven?" Zhuo Bufan was stunned.
"That's right. The Staircase to Heaven is the staircase that the Qing Emperor prepared to use to ascend."
"Legend has it that those who can reach the top are the chosen ones."
After hearing this, Zhuo Bufan frowned.
"No matter what, I have to climb up."
Although Zhuo Bufan already knew that this was his love rival's way to climb the ladder, he could no longer back down.
Victory was right in front of him. As long as he climbed to the top of the stairs and unlocked the Qing Emperor's seal, Zhuo Bufan's mission would be completed.
Next, the three of them continued forward.
After more than an hour, they were halfway up the mountain.
The three of them were already panting heavily, and it was difficult for them to hold on.
"Is this Qing Emperor's final test?"
"We've already come this far. We can't give up."
Zhuo Bufan and Donghuang Hao Tian gritted their teeth and continued climbing.
This time, they climbed two-thirds of the way up.
After arriving here, Geba took the lead and tried his best.
Because of the battle with the mermaid fairy, his demonic energy had been damaged, and his power had been greatly reduced.
After accompanying Zhuo Bufan and the others here, he really did not have any more strength to move forward.
"Can't we continue?"
Zhuo Bufan looked at Geba, who was sitting on the stairs, and asked.
The heavy pressure made it hard for him to breathe.
He shook his head heavily and said.
"We can't. Take this and continue forward!"
After saying that, Geba reached out his right hand and grabbed Zhuo Bufan's arm.
In the next second, Zhuo Bufan felt an endless stream of violent energy pouring into his body.
Geba had transferred all his demonic energy to Zhuo Bufan.
Through the integration of divine energy, Zhuo Bufan instantly felt that his strength had increased greatly, and his whole body was filled with energy.
"You must go up!"
Geba looked at Zhuo Bufan with a determined gaze.
Since they had already come this far, he also hoped that Zhuo Bufan could reach the top.
"I will."
Zhuo Bufan looked at Geba and said.
Then he looked at Donghuang Hao Tian and said.
"Donghuang, let's go!"
Following that, Zhuo Bufan and Donghuang Hao Tian continued to move forward.
With the powerful demonic energy that Geba had given him, Zhuo Bufan felt that the pressure on his body had decreased a lot.
However, Donghuang Hao Tian seemed to be having a hard time.
He accompanied Zhuo Bufan and continued to move forward for more than an hour.
Finally, they had climbed to the seven-tenths position.
"Old Zhuo, we can't go on!"
After reaching this point, Donghuang Hao Tian also sat down. At this point, the gravity that they had to endure was at least a thousand times that of their own gravity.
Donghuang Hao Tian felt that his feet had already dug into the jade stairs.
With every step, he had to use 120% of his strength. The heavy pressure made his body start to bend.
He had no choice but to rely on his demonic energy to resist this great pressure.
However, his demonic energy was not limitless. His demonic energy was also constantly being depleted.
Finally reaching this point, he made a decision. It was time to stop here.
He could not waste his remaining demonic energy. He wanted to give all his demonic energy to Zhuo Bufan.
Just like what Geba had done previously.
"Brother Zhuo, you must go up. You must."
Donghuang Hao Tian said as he grabbed Zhuo Bufan's shoulder tightly.
Then he also transferred all his demonic energy to Zhuo Bufan.
"Donghuang, I understand."
Zhuo Bufan understood Donghuang Hao Tian's intention.
If they did not do this, they would not be able to reach the top.
Therefore, they gave all their strength to Zhuo Bufan and used a relay method to send Zhuo Bufan up alone.
It had to be said that Geba and Donghuang Hao Tian had very tacitly made the most correct sacrifice.
Only Zhuo Bufan could unlock the seal of the Tomb of Heavenly Stars.
Therefore, the two of them had to send Zhuo Bufan to the top in a reasonable way.
Zhuo Bufan took Donghuang Hao Tian and Geba's strength and stepped onto the remaining stairs.
With the strength of the two, Zhuo Bufan's following path was very easy at first.
However, when he was almost eighty percent up, Zhuo Bufan began to feel tired.
The immense pressure was making it difficult for him to move.
Zhuo Bufan had no choice but to activate his divine halos, forcing him to use his divine power.
With the activation of the divine halos, numerous divine halos wrapped around Zhuo Bufan's body, releasing divine power that began to envelop him in a glow.
Zhuo Bufan felt that the pressure on his body had lessened by quite a bit.
Therefore, in a spurt of energy, he rushed to the top in one breath.
However, when he reached the last hundred steps, Zhuo Bufan's divine power finally ran out of light.
"I have to go up, I have to go up."
The closer he got to the last few steps, the more terrifying the pressure he had to endure.
In the end, he even used his hands and feet to climb the stairs.
"Ahhhhh!"
Seeing that there were only a few steps left, Zhuo Bufan let out a low growl.
He felt that his body was about to be squeezed out of shape, and most importantly, he had no more strength left.
This pressure did not only come from his body, but also from his soul.
His soul was being pressed so hard that he could not breathe, and it began to distort and deform.
At that moment, he felt that his soul was being torn apart and squeezed by a strange force.
His seven orifices began to bleed, his bones began to crack, and his blood began to burn.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz!
With a buzzing sound, Zhuo Bufan felt as if a key door had been opened in his soul.
