Yan Imperial City, North City.
The King of Hell's Northern Palace was located in a fortress. It was tall and majestic, and everyone respected it. In fact, this fortress was completely sealed off. The huge sky flashed with electricity, which meant that it was completely sealed off. The only entrance was guarded by many strong martial artists from the North City. They were strong and powerful.
"Stop!" The martial artist on guard stopped him, his face expressionless.
Lin Feng was not surprised. He waved his right hand and took out the White Crystal Token. There were many places in Yan Imperial City that had 'identity' requirements.
However …
The martial artist on guard glanced at him and said coldly, "You're not allowed to enter."
His voice was cold and emotionless. He did not even look at Lin Feng. To them, what they had to do was to act impartially. They only recognized the token and not the person. The other martial artist on guard was the same. His expression was arrogant and cold. His strength as a Sage King was obvious.
He was a Saint King, yet he was being used as a gatekeeper!
How 'extravagant'!
"Hmm?" Lin Feng frowned slightly.
He did not expect that even the fourth-grade token, the White Crystal Token, would not work. He suddenly remembered what Thousand Love Empress said and was slightly shocked. Thousand Love Empress had mentioned that a sixth-grade White Crystal Token would allow one to pass through most places without any obstructions. However, there were a few places that required a third-grade and above 'golden' token to enter.
This was the first time he was' experiencing 'it.
"This is troublesome." Lin Feng kept the White Crystal Token and frowned slightly. He felt a headache coming on.
Thinking about it, he did not have any agreement with the King of Hell's Northern Palace. They had never even met before. How could he meet such a powerful martial artist just because he wanted to? He had been too naive. Lin Feng did not want to delay any longer. He was about to leave when suddenly —
"Bastard!"
"You don't even know the new Northern Dragon Guard?"
A thunderous roar sounded. Lin Feng looked towards the source of the voice and saw a man in huge armor walking towards him. His steps were heavy and powerful. His limbs were thick and strong. He was a head shorter than Meng Qi. However, with his muscular body, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary martial artist.
High-level Saint King Realm!
"King of Hell's Northern Palace, Palace Guard Captain Han Tieshi greets Lord Northern Dragon Guard." Kneeling on one knee, the short armored man cupped his hands and said.
When they saw the Palace Guard Captain, Han Tieshi, kneel down, the two cold-looking guards from before did not dare to be negligent. They quickly knelt down on one knee and cupped their fists in their palms as they said sternly, "Palace Guards Li Chong and Qin Lin of the King of Hell's Northern Palace greet you, Lord Northern Dragon Guard." Their expressions were incredibly respectful, and the cold arrogance on their faces had long since disappeared.
The situation suddenly changed.
Lin Feng's eyes flickered and his heart trembled.
"Is the Northern Dragon Guard here to find Lord Hades King of the North?" Han Tieshi asked solemnly.
"Yes." Lin Feng didn't deny it, and tacitly agreed with the title of 'Northern Dragon Guard'. Not only did it save him a lot of effort, but it also saved him the trouble of explaining to these guards. "I wonder if the Palace Guard Captain can lead the way?"
"Of course, there's no problem." Han Tieshi smiled, "Sir, this way please."
Lin Feng nodded and followed Han Tieshi in.
As for Li Chong and Qin Lin, there was no need to be calculative. After all, they didn't do anything wrong.
…
The King of Hades King of the North was huge.
It was spacious, bright, and extraordinary. There were countless paths around it that extended in all directions.
Lin Feng looked around and followed Han Tieshi casually. If he entered alone, it would take him a long time just to explore. Now that there was someone leading the way, it would save him a lot of effort. At this moment, he didn't care too much. He had to meet Lord Hades King of the North first.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Lin Feng's heart pounded violently as he frowned.
It wasn't because he was about to meet a big shot, but because he was so worried about Zi Yao that he couldn't concentrate.
A sense of danger that he had never felt before filled his heart.
His intuition told him that it wasn't simple this time!
"I hope that Lord Hades King of the North can help," Lin Feng thought to himself.
Honestly speaking, he didn't have much hope for Jin Ji. After all, this was the Sorcerer Realm, not the human territory. Just as Thousand Love Empress had said, the only person who could help him now was Lord Hades King of the North. He had power, influence, and ability. The only problem was …
Was he willing or not?
…
There was a long passageway and a winding hall.
Lord Hades King of the North was huge. Even with Han Tieshi leading the way, they still had to travel for a long time before they arrived. There was an open area in front of them and the surroundings were all white. It was like a shadow that covered the sky, making it impossible to see the sun. However, there was a giant circular platform floating in the air.
It was really special!
Below the circular platform was a long staircase that was at least 10,000 feet high.
Looking up, Lin Feng's eyes sparkled.
It felt really special.
"Go up. Lord Hades King of the North is waiting for you," Han Tieshi said.
His voice wasn't loud but it was firm and powerful. He didn't hesitate.
Lin Feng looked over and a bright light flashed in his eyes. It was the Palace Guard Captain Han Tieshi's short sentence. There was a deeper meaning to it.
Lord Hades King of the North was waiting for him?
He knew that he was coming?
With a thought, Lin Feng looked up but he couldn't see what was above the giant circular platform. His aura also drifted with the wind. There was a formless energy in it. With his strength, he could easily jump up. However, Han Tieshi didn't explain in detail and only told him to go up.
There were two ways to go up.
One was to jump up directly and the other was to walk up slowly.
Lin Feng's eyes lit up. He did not hesitate for long before he took a step forward and walked up the long Sky Stairway. Indeed, he was very anxious. However, Lord Hades King of the North was an elder and Bei Longshou's master. No matter what, he had to show some respect.
"Hua ~" Everything in front of him became clear.
The moment he took the first step, the feeling changed completely.
It was as if he had entered a different world. Everything around him had disappeared. It was a vast expanse of whiteness. There was only the 10,000 feet long staircase in front of him. It was as if it led to an unknown world, to the existence of the 'heavens.'
A layer of strange and faint energy gathered above the Stairway to Heaven, shrouding it like a dense fog.
He couldn't see the top. It was mysterious and mysterious.
"It doesn't seem ordinary," Lin Feng thought.
His experience told him that this staircase wasn't as simple as an ordinary staircase.
He closed his eyes and recalled what he saw just now. It was like an illusion, a mirage. The vast expanse of whiteness around him, including the huge circular platform, seemed to be very far away. It was hard to tell if it was real or not. The entire King of Hades King of the North was filled with a strange aura.
Pa! Opening his eyes, Lin Feng's eyes shone brightly.
There was nothing to be afraid of. Since he was here, he might as well take things as they came.
Even though he didn't know what this 10,000 feet staircase was, but …
He would think about it after he walked!
"Ta." Lin Feng walked up slowly.
…
It was very tall and very big!
Every step of the Stairway to Heaven was a full ten feet high.
The 10,000 feet stairway had 10,000 steps. Lin Feng's heart shook. At this moment, his eyes were shining. However, there was a hint of hesitation in his surprise. The 10,000 feet staircase was very mysterious. Every step was not easy. However, once he stepped onto a new step, the mysterious energy from before would enter his body.
It was like a clear spring and also like a stream of energy.
It seeped into his body from all directions and strengthened his body. It was as if he had been enlightened, making him unusually clear-headed.
What did this mean?
The strengthening of his soul!
"I've seen many ways to strengthen one's body.
However, it's rare to see a way to strengthen one's soul. "
Lin Feng's eyes sparkled.
Even though the increase in soul power was not great and was even very weak, it was still quite good to have a slight increase in soul power with every step. As for the strengthening of his body, it was slightly inferior to the strengthening of his soul. However, it was better than nothing.
If it was any other time, it would be a blessing to him to be able to enter this place.
However, it wasn't the time now!
"Pah!" Lin Feng clenched his fists tightly.
He walked up step by step. However, there was no other way. Even though he was worried about Zi Yao, he had no other choice but to climb the 10,000 feet staircase. Fortunately, it was only 10,000 feet. Even though it would take some time, it was still bearable.
"I have to be fast!" Lin Feng thought to himself.
…
Fast!
The front was indeed very fast.
The first 100 steps, the first 1000 steps, and the next 3000 steps. Lin Feng crossed them quickly. However, he slowly felt the strain. Frowning, Lin Feng pursed his lips. Even though he maintained a constant speed, the pressure was much greater than before.
"It's like tempering."
"It's tempering in a strange way. Every step is tempering the body and soul."
"After that, it will turn into an increase in energy."
…
Lin Feng thought to himself.
He couldn't feel it for the first 3000 steps because the tempering was very small and weak.
However, it was getting clearer and clearer.
First bitter, then sweet!
"This place is like a compressed cultivation."
"The higher I go, the denser the energy and the better the effect."
"With every step, the improvement of my soul will be more than a few times greater than before. The later steps will definitely be more beneficial!"
Lin Feng raised his head and looked up. He was pleasantly surprised.
To the main body, the improvement of the body was far less useful than the improvement of the soul. The soul of a Heavenly God was the foundation. The control of fire, the use of profundities, and even the direct attack of the soul, including his special eyes, were closely related to the soul.
Even though his soul was comparable to a top-notch Heavenly God, it wasn't invincible in the Dou Ling World, nor was it at the top.
Putting everything else aside, Gu Sheng, the genius of the Ancient Clan, was much stronger than him in terms of the strength of his soul.
Right now, if his soul could be improved, it would undoubtedly be great news.
However …
"I don't know how long it will take." Lin Feng frowned.
To him, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cultivate had instead become torture.
He felt that Zi Yao was getting further and further away from him. At the current speed, it would take at least one day and one night to reach the top of the stairs! Looking up at the sky, the dense energy was getting denser and denser. He couldn't see the top.
His heart had already sunk.
"This is going to be troublesome!" Lin Feng's eyes were deep.
The pressure was getting stronger and the burden was getting heavier. However, he was already on the cliff and there was no way out.
The only thing he could do was to continue walking. All he could do was to try his best …
Be faster!
