Hundredfold Gravity
The steward's words were harsh, but Third Aunt Du and the Flower Fairy couldn't refute him. After all, it was a fact that Ye Fei didn't enter the top 1,000. They could only pray that Ye Fei would quickly pull himself together and catch up.
"Eh, this country bumpkin can't be. I easily entered the top 100, but that country bumpkin didn't even enter the top 1,000."
There was another person on the Stairway to Heaven who was constantly paying attention to Ye Fei. That was Bai Tiancheng. He had been beaten up so badly by Ye Fei that he dreamed of killing Ye Fei. Therefore, he was constantly paying attention to Ye Fei's position. He even planned to ambush Ye Fei on the Stairway to Heaven. He would join forces with the people around him to push Ye Fei out of the Stairway to Heaven and completely lose the qualification to enter the next round.
In the end, after waiting for a long time, Ye Fei still hadn't caught up. Only when he turned around did he realize that Ye Fei had been left behind in the top 1,000. He was still at the bottom of the Stairway to Heaven, panting as he climbed up.
"Eh, what's wrong with Ye Fei? It's just the Beginner's Stairway. The gravity isn't that strong. Why hasn't he caught up? Is he conserving his strength?" Long Gang and the other two also noticed Ye Fei's abnormality. They were secretly anxious and wanted to stop and wait for Ye Fei.
Bai Tiancheng, who was walking not far away from them, suddenly sneered and said disdainfully, "What else could it be? Don't forget that the Stairway to Heaven tests talent. The stronger the talent, the easier it is to climb the Stairway to Heaven. He's just a country bumpkin from the North Sea. Do you expect him to have strong talent?"
After saying that, Bai Tiancheng quickly walked forward. If he had treated Ye Fei as a rival before, now that he saw that Ye Fei's talent and potential were so bad that he couldn't even enter the top 1,000, he couldn't even be bothered to continue waiting. He might as well focus all his strength and work hard to climb up.
"Last time, this young master almost entered the top 50. This time, this young master's goal is not the top 50, but the top 20. Long Gang, you guys just wait to look up to me. Hmph." Bai Tiancheng's speed was very fast, and his ranking was also rapidly rising.
Long Gang and the other two's faces were very ugly. However, this was the Stairway to Heaven. They couldn't help even if they wanted to. They could only sigh and speed up to catch up with Bai Tiancheng.
In the depths of the palace, the Northern Heavenly King watched in shock as the Northern Heavenly King used the Stairway Formation to increase the gravity on Ye Fei from ten times to a hundred times.
It had to be known that on the Stairway to Heaven, everyone initially had to endure ten times the pressure. This was the first time the Northern Heavenly King had seen someone like Ye Fei, who had to endure a hundred times the pressure. This was also the reason why Ye Fei was walking very slowly on the Stairway to Heaven while the other warriors were moving very quickly.
However, at this moment, Ye Fei didn't know that the gravity he was enduring was ten times more than the others. In addition, every hundred steps on the Stairway to Heaven would increase the gravity by ten times.
After only three hundred steps, Ye Fei was very depressed to discover that the gravity on his body had reached three hundred times the pressure.
Such a terrifying pressure was enough to crush a rock. Even though Ye Fei had the War Demon Golden Body and his physical defense was incomparably strong, he was still exhausted to the point of gasping for breath. His entire body felt sore.
Why is it like this? Clearly, many warriors who are inferior to me can climb the steps effortlessly. Why is it so difficult for me to climb the steps? Could it be that my innate talent and aptitude are too poor? Ye Fei thought to himself. Then, he shook his head in denial.
Although I came from an ordinary background, with the Undying Sword Soul and the Battle Demon Golden Body, my strength, talent, and aptitude are considered top-notch even in the entire Northern Region. Since it's not because of my innate talent, could it be that the gravity I'm enduring is different from others?
Ye Fei wasn't stupid. When he saw warriors who were inferior to him in terms of strength and talent easily walk past him while he had to exert a Herculean effort to climb each step, Ye Fei immediately sensed that something was wrong.
After another hundred steps, the gravity on Ye Fei's body had reached a terrifying four hundred times. Ye Fei finally didn't dare to continue climbing.
There's definitely something wrong here. A serious look flashed across his face. He knew that if he continued climbing, even if he didn't collapse from exhaustion, he would be crushed by the increasing gravity. Thus, Ye Fei decided not to continue. Instead, he sat down cross-legged and prepared to study the rapidly increasing gravity on his body.
Eh, why isn't that kid moving? Could it be that he's given up? In the depths of the Imperial Palace, the Northern Heavenly King looked at Ye Fei, who was sitting cross-legged on the steps. His eyes suddenly flashed with deep disappointment. He had investigated Ye Fei's background and naturally knew that Ye Fei had started out as a low-level warrior and climbed up step by step.
Because of this, the Northern Heavenly King had once thought very highly of Ye Fei. But now, it seemed that Ye Fei was no different from those warriors who had given up halfway due to the pressure.
It was no wonder that the Northern Heavenly King had misunderstood. In fact, before Ye Fei had sat down on the steps, many other warriors had already sat down on the steps like Ye Fei because they couldn't bear the pressure and had given up on climbing. They had only hoped to use the pressure of the steps to work hard and cultivate.
No, he hasn't given up. He must have realized that something is wrong. It seems that the hundred-fold gravity still can't suppress him. No wonder that person appeared in the Taixuan Holy Land. When the Northern Heavenly King saw Ye Fei's actions, he didn't look disappointed. Instead, he looked even more interested.
"That person?" The Northern Heavenly King was puzzled. He was the Northern Heavenly King's most trusted confidant, but he didn't know who the Northern Heavenly King was referring to.
The Northern Heavenly King had no intention of explaining. After praising Ye Fei, he shook his head and sighed. "It's only four hundred times the gravity. It's not worth it for such a person to appear. It seems that this kid still has potential to be squeezed out. Beigong, get ready. I plan to activate the highest level of difficulty!"
"What? The highest level of difficulty?" The Northern Heavenly King was truly shocked this time. The Earth Roll was an ancient assessment. Of course, it had its own difficulty. At the same time, it could be adjusted. Generally, the Earth Roll used the normal level of difficulty. The highest level of difficulty was rarely used in the entire Northern Region because there weren't many geniuses in the Northern Region who could withstand the highest level of difficulty.
And now, the Northern Heavenly King was actually going to activate the highest level of difficulty? After recovering from his shock, the Northern Heavenly King didn't dare to delay. He hurriedly ran down and began to make preparations.
Boom!
The Northern Heavenly King also made his move. Suddenly, a terrifying aura emerged from his body, forming a terrifying hurricane that rushed towards the 1,000th step.
The entire Imperial Palace shook and the crystal walls were extinguished. On the Stairway to Heaven, the geniuses who were chasing after each other with relaxed expressions suddenly felt as if doomsday had arrived.
A huge and terrifying pressure blew towards them, causing them to stagger and retreat. They couldn't withstand this terrifying force at all.
Countless geniuses could only watch as they were blown out of the Stairway to Heaven and lost the right to continue the assessment.
"King's Aura? Father has activated the highest level of difficulty! "The Fourth Prince, Zhu Zhen, was shocked.
"The highest level of difficulty. It's actually the highest level of difficulty. What's wrong with the King? With this level of difficulty, won't all those below the Martial King Realm be eliminated?" Bai Tianyun's face turned ugly.
"Hmph, so what if it's the highest level of difficulty? I can use it to test my potential. Why should only men be able to become Heavenly Kings? I, Beigong Chun, must become the first female Heavenly King of the Northern Heavenly Kingdom, a female King!"
Beigong Chun's face was filled with determination. Facing this terrifying pressure, not only did she stabilize her body, she even took a step forward.
What a terrifying woman!
