Taoist Master Qing Xuan and Zhenren Shanhe could not help but whisper at the same time, "Good!"
The two of them subconsciously lowered their voices, as if they would disturb Xia Ruofei if they were too loud.
In fact, Xia Ruofei could stand firmly on the 478 steps, which was already the best record in history. The results of the few Nascent Soul Stage cultivators did not count, as it was specially arranged to test the difficulty of the Obsidian Stairway to Heaven. This was the Stairway to Heaven for cultivators in the Aurous Core Stage.
Back then, Xuan Jizi was unable to hold on and was directly thrown out on the 478th step.
If Xia Ruofei could stand firmly on this step and take a step forward, even if he just touched the edge of the 479 steps and was directly eliminated, then he could be considered to have set a new record.
Zhenren Shanhe was very comforted. In his long career of cultivation, he had taken in many disciples, and some of them were even very close to his cultivation. However, Xia Ruofei was the most special. Zhenren Shanhe did not meet Xia Ruofei in person, but he left a thought in the Ring-Tu space to accept Xia Ruofei.
Of course, more importantly, Xia Ruofei was the only one among his disciples who cultivated the Dao Formula.
The Dao Formula was the life's work of Zhenren Shanhe. Zhenren Shanhe naturally regarded Xia Ruofei as his disciple in a new light.
He was optimistic about Xia Ruofei's talent and tenacity, and also felt that Xia Ruofei should be able to achieve good results on the Stairway to Heaven.
Even so, Zhenren Shanhe did not dare to think that Xia Ruofei could break the record. After all, Xia Ruofei's cultivation was only in the Middle-stage of the Aurous Core Stage, which was too disadvantageous for him to break through the Stairway to Heaven.
The reason why Zhenren Shanhe predicted that Xia Ruofei could reach the 480th step during the bet was more to support his disciple in front of Taoist Master Qing Xuan.
However, he did not expect Xia Ruofei to be so hardworking. Although it was extremely difficult, he bravely moved forward and forcibly tied the record set by the peerless genius Xuan Jizi.
"Brother Shanhe, I really envy you!" Taoist Master Qing Xuan said sincerely, "How did you meet such a good disciple!"
Zhenren Shanhe laughed and said, "I also left my treasure Mountain River Spirit Map in the cultivation world of the Divine Continent back then. That's why I have a good relationship with him today!"
.....
The Eighth Floor of the Tower.
Naturally, he did not feel anything. He did not know that he was standing at the start of history. and he did not know that he, of course, he did, did not feel anything. com.
All he knew was that every inch of his skin felt like it was about to be torn apart. Every bone in his body was creaking and could be crushed into pieces at any moment.
In fact, this was the case. If Xia Ruofei's vitality was exhausted and he could not maintain a defensive state at all times, the huge pressure might instantly crush all the bones in his body. Even if he was thrown out and eliminated, it would be difficult to avoid serious injuries.
Fortunately, the pressure of the Spiritual Force was not too bad. In front of Xia Ruofei, whose Spiritual Force had reached the Spirit Transformation Realm, the Spiritual Force pressure of the Obsidian Stairway to Heaven could no longer pose a substantial threat to him.
Now, Xia Ruofei's biggest enemy should be the pressure of 500 to 600 Gs.
If this was on Earth, such a huge pressure would be enough to crush the hardest material.
As a cultivator at the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, Xia Ruofei's body was stronger than many cultivators at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm. In addition, his cultivation method was definitely a top-notch cultivation method. His Spiritual Force had also reached the Spirit Transformation Realm. It could be said that in terms of overall strength, Xia Ruofei was much stronger than many cultivators at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm. Even when he was breaking through the Stairway to Heaven, his results were much better than countless cultivators at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.
Xia Ruofei panted heavily as he circulated his cultivation method at full speed.
He even took out a petal of the Spirit Heart Flower from the Ring-Tu space and directly absorbed it in his palm to heal the many broken bones in his body.
Ten minutes later, Xia Ruofei was full of energy. He took a deep breath and stepped onto the 479th step.
In the secret space filled with purple Qi, Spiritual Master Shanhe and Daoist Master Qing Xuan also let out a long sigh.
Xia Ruofei's step meant that a new record had been created.
Now, the two of them no longer cared about Xia Ruofei's results. Even if Xia Ruofei was eliminated now, he would still be the record holder.
The result of the bet between Daoist Master Qing Xuan and Spiritual Master Shanhe had already been decided. Once Xia Ruofei passed the 465th step, no matter what his final result was, it would definitely be closer to the result that Spiritual Master Shanhe had guessed.
Therefore, Daoist Master Qing Xuan no longer had the mentality of winning or losing. At the same time, he also no longer had the trace of expectation from before. Now, he and Spiritual Master Shanhe both had an appreciative attitude as they watched Xia Ruofei climb each step.
On the 479th step, Xia Ruofei still stood firmly.
After another adjustment, he took another step.
This time, it was the 480th step. This was the result that Spiritual Master Shanhe had guessed.
Therefore, when Xia Ruofei stepped on the 480th step, Spiritual Master Shanhe was also beaming with joy. The result of the bet was naturally very important, and it was also something to be happy about that his prediction was so accurate.
Xia Ruofei didn't know that his every move was being watched by two almighty cultivators. Even if he knew, he didn't have the time to care about it now. Because he had to concentrate all his energy to resist the shocking pressure, and he couldn't afford to have any distracting thoughts at all.
On the 480th step, Xia Ruofei still stood firmly.
Every step that followed seemed to be difficult for Xia Ruofei. He seemed to be on the verge of collapse, as if he would be eliminated at any time.
Xia Ruofei was creating history with every step he took, but he did not know it himself.
Now, he had to stay at each step for at least ten minutes before he could barely adjust. However, Spiritual Master Shanhe and Daoist Master Qing Xuan were not impatient at all. Instead, they were secretly cheering for Xia Ruofei.
After all, he was the strongest person in the Golden Core stage in history. As long as such a genius did not die prematurely, he would definitely grow up to be a pillar of support in the future. Especially in the unstable world of cultivation, one could imagine how precious such a talent was.
Unknowingly, Xia Ruofei had already reached the 499th step.
This had greatly exceeded the expectations of Spiritual Master Shanhe and Daoist Master Qing Xuan.
Even when Spiritual Master Shanhe guessed that Xia Ruofei could reach the 480th step, it was an exaggeration. The main reason was that he did not want to appear weak in front of Daoist Master Qing Xuan.
They did not expect Xia Ruofei to be so tenacious that he could directly reach the 500th step.
Spiritual Master Shanhe naturally noticed that Xia Ruofei had used the petals of the Spiritual Heart Flower to heal his injuries several times. The Ring-Tu space was given to Xia Ruofei by Spiritual Master Shanhe. The precious Spiritual Heart Tree was also a big gift from Spiritual Master Shanhe to Xia Ruofei. Of course, he knew the magical effects of the Spiritual Heart Flower.
It was also because of this that Spiritual Master Shanhe admired his disciple even more.
It was obvious that Xia Ruofei's bones were unable to withstand the pressure and were constantly cracking. Otherwise, how could Xia Ruofei keep using the petals of the Spiritual Heart Flower?
Many of the bones in his body were broken, and he was constantly under the immense pressure. One could imagine the pain he was in.
However, there was only determination and determination on Xia Ruofei's face. He did not even show any signs of pain. He would only clench his teeth, close his lips, and steadily climb up step by step.
In fact, what even Sage Mountain River did not expect was that Xia Ruofei's physical body was actually becoming stronger under such a terrifying and huge pressure in the process of breaking through the barrier.
This was especially true for his broken bones. After being repaired by the petals of the Spirit Heart Flower, his bones were obviously stronger than before.
This was also one of the important reasons why Xia Ruofei was able to persevere until now.
Of course, ordinary people would not be able to withstand such pain. Even if they knew that the Stairway to Heaven was very effective in tempering the body, they would not be able to endure it to such an extent as Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei took a few breaths and stopped on the four hundred and ninety-ninth step.
Next was the 500th step.
According to his experience, this step would be a huge hurdle, and the increase in pressure in all aspects would suddenly increase.
Under such circumstances, one could lose everything if one was not prepared.
Xia Ruofei stood firmly on the four hundred and ninety-ninth step. His gaze was incomparably firm. As he operated the Dao Technique to control his Primordial Qi, he consciously released a trace of Primordial Qi to protect himself. He purposely drew more pressure to temper his body.
Xia Ruofei's move was undoubtedly bold.
Ordinary people would find it difficult to maintain a clear mind and think calmly under the Stairway to Heaven's pressure. Moreover, they would definitely use their vital Qi to protect their body. Who would dare to lower the strength of their vital Qi defense?
Moreover, even if one went all out, the pressure was already very painful on one's body. If the pain was increased, one might not be able to withstand it and would be eliminated.
What was even more frightening was that if one was not careful, the consequences would be extremely tragic. If one was lucky, one might be injured and thrown out. If one was unlucky, one might be instantly turned into a meat patty.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei now had the intention of taking a risk.
He did not want to take too many risks. However, he was very clear about his situation. If he relied on his current ability, there was a high chance that he would be sent flying out after reaching the 500th step.
Now, he was only 18 steps away from the top. Standing at Xia Ruofei's position, he could almost touch the light screen door. If he was eliminated at this position, Xia Ruofei would definitely be very unwilling.
In order to increase his strength, Xia Ruofei was willing to endure any pain. He was even willing to consume more petals of the Spirit Heart Flower.
Xia Ruofei relaxed his Yuan Qi defense a little, and the squeezing force on his body suddenly increased by a notch.
He had already tried his best to pay attention to the range, but the sudden increase in pressure still caused his expression to change. Then, he heard cracking sounds one after another. This was the sound of many of the bones in his body cracking or even directly breaking. An immense pain suddenly attacked him, causing his face to instantly turn as pale as paper. Large beads of sweat dripped down from his forehead.
Xia Ruofei groaned. He felt something sweet in his throat. A stream of blood surged up uncontrollably and then slowly flowed down from the corner of his mouth.
In the secret space filled with dense purple Qi, Daoist Master Qing Xuan was also shocked by this scene.
He was fine, but he suddenly spat out blood. This was indeed quite shocking.
"Daoist Brother Shanhe, what's wrong with this child?" Daoist Master Qing Xuan could not help but be anxious. "His condition doesn't look too good … If he suffered such serious injuries, he should have been sent away quickly. Why is there no movement until now? Could it be that the Stairway to Heaven malfunctioned? "
Daoist Master Shanhe's expression was complicated. He waved his hand and said, "Daoist Brother Qing Xuan, Ruofei is fine. The Stairway to Heaven is not malfunctioning. You don't have to worry …"
Daoist Master Qing Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "I have controlled the Tower of Trials for hundreds of years. I know it better than you …"
"But I know my disciple." Daoist Master Shanhe said calmly, "He looks a little scary, but he doesn't seem to have reached his limit."
At this point, Daoist Master Shanhe asked again, "Daoist Brother Qing Xuan, can the Stairway to Heaven also temper the body?"
Daoist Master Qing Xuan was slightly stunned. Then, he said, "The pressure does have a slight tempering effect on the body, but the process is very painful and difficult to control …"
"That's right!" Daoist Master Shanhe said, "My disciple must have noticed this situation, so he consciously used the pressure to temper his body. He probably felt that he was not very confident in the next 500 steps, so he used this method to temper his body and improve his strength. "
Daoist Master Qing Xuan could not help but be stunned. He said, "This … this … how can this be done? If he suddenly released his vitality protection, his bones might be broken! "
Daoist Master Shanhe said calmly, "His bones have been broken many times, but he used the spiritual medicine I gave him to heal them."
Daoist Master Qing Xuan was not too surprised by the spiritual medicine's immediate effect on external injuries. What he was really surprised about was that Xia Ruofei's actions were equivalent to breaking his own bones and then reconnecting them again. No matter how good the spiritual medicine was, it could not reduce the intense pain during this process!
After a long while, Daoist Master Qing Xuan muttered, "Daoist Master Shanhe, I'm impressed. Are all your disciples like this? They are so cruel to themselves, they are simply crazy! "
Daoist Master Shanhe grinned and said, "We are indeed a little crazy, but Ruofei is definitely the craziest among all of them!"
"I think … he really has a chance to stand firm on the 500th step!" Daoist Master Qing Xuan said with a complicated expression.
Daoist Master Shanhe looked meaningfully at Xia Ruofei in the bronze mirror magic treasure and said, "Daoist Brother Qing Xuan, he has already reached this position. Do you still think his goal is the 500th step? I can see that he has been aiming to reach the top from the beginning, and no matter how difficult it is, he has never wavered from this idea … "
