The forty-ninth step of the Heavenly Stairway was only the first trial, and the eighty-first step was the second trial. Only after passing these two trials would one be able to see the top of the mountain.
For many years, no one had been able to pass the forty-ninth step, let alone reach the top and see the gods.
Yang Wu had relied on his own strength to pass the first trial despite being beaten into a bloody pulp. He had also obtained the complete "Barbaric Fist" technique, as well as the nine drops of essence blood. For a Barbarian, this was an extremely shocking harvest. Unfortunately, Yang Wu was not a Barbarian.
Because of this, after he passed the forty-ninth step, the trials for the fiftieth step and above were all closed, and he could not take the second trial.
Before the fiftieth step, there was a powerful force that separated Yang Wu and Little Hei. No matter how hard they tried, they could not reach the fiftieth step.
"Woof woof, what a stingy guy. Just because you did not accept its bloodline inheritance, it actually cut off the Heavenly Stairway. How despicable." Little Hei said through gritted teeth.
"Forget it. We can't be too greedy." Yang Wu said with a satisfied expression.
"What do you know? The big opportunity is at the top." Little Hei said as she rolled her eyes at Yang Wu.
Yang Wu asked, "What big opportunity is there?"
"Forget it. You're still so weak. There's no point in talking to you. You should just obediently dominate this world. What's more, that guy's will created this Heavenly Ladder. There's no one who can go against his will. You can try again in the future if you have the chance." Little Black said.
"How am I weak? I feel like my entire body is filled with power." Yang Wu replied.
"Forget it. The three little demons below are enough to deal with you." Little Hei said as she pointed at the three Sky Demons below.
Fortunately, she was using her divine sense to communicate with Yang Wu. Otherwise, the three Sky Demons would not have agreed. They were the guardians of the Heavenly Mountain and were in the Sky Demon Realm. How could they be considered little demons?
"Hmph, give me a few more years and I'll definitely beat them up." Yang Wu snorted discontentedly.
Thus, he no longer stayed on the flight of stairs and began to descend.
It had taken him many days to climb the forty-nine steps. He was afraid that the barbarians at the foot of the mountain were going crazy.
As Yang Wu descended, he was no longer disturbed by any power. When he walked down the forty-ninth step, it was as if some shackles on his body had been removed. An incomparably abundant power rippled through his body. Many of his meridians and acupoints emitted an intense and strange sound, like the roar of a river or the galloping of an army. His strength was crazily soaring.
The three Heavenly Demons who were about to surround Yang Wu immediately stopped in their tracks. They could sense the change in Yang Wu.
"After passing the test, it's time to reap the rewards." Tian Xiang praised.
"That's right. He's already a king at such a young age. If he takes another step forward, he'll be invincible in the king realm." The Barbarian Bull Demon said.
The tigress said from the side, "Leave him in our Barbarian Tribe. This is the place where he should live."
Yang Wu could not hear their words at all. He had already sat down cross-legged and began to suppress his suddenly violent power. If he was not careful, he might waste this power or be counterattacked by this power.
This power was not as simple as the pure physical power being converted into Xuan Qi. There was also the pure power from the fight between him and Little Hei. This had turned into a large amount of Xuan Qi rain that continuously fell into his Dantian and strengthened his Ground Sea.
In the Earth Sea Realm, the initial stage was the "Xuan Qi Sea Transformation", the intermediate stage was the "Blue Waves of the Sea", the advanced stage was the "Eye of the Sea", and the top stage was the "Moon Rising from the Sea". At each stage, the Ground Sea had different changes, representing the strength of the power.
The power of Yang Wu's Ground Sea was incomparably majestic, completely comparable to the advanced stage of the Earth Sea Realm. But in fact, he was now forcefully breaking through to the "Blue Waves of the Sea" stage.
As more and more Xuan Qi rained down, the momentum of the sea was formed. Like a tide, it surged wave after wave endlessly, emitting an incomparably vast and mighty power. This was the symbol of the "Ocean Tide Waves" that belonged to the intermediate Earth Sea realm.
When Yang Wu broke through from the initial stage to the intermediate stage, there was a power in his body that rushed to every corner of his body. His whole body was comfortable and calm. Many forces were smoothing his body over and over again, strengthening his body's toughness.
After he had passed through the 49th stage, his potential power had been completely excavated. This power was feedback to his Dantian, and the power that increased the stage returned to the various muscles. It was just icing on the cake. It was not so obvious, but it further perfected his physique.
This time, Yang Wu had broken through from the initial stage of the late stage of the Earth Sea Realm to the intermediate stage of the intermediate stage of the Earth Sea Realm in one fell swoop. It was not as simple as the initial stage of the intermediate stage of the Earth Sea Realm or the intermediate stage of the intermediate stage of the Earth Sea Realm. He had crossed a whole realm and three small realms, and was very close to the advanced stage of the Earth Sea Realm.
This was the great harvest of passing the first stage of the Heavenly Ladder. It was completely comparable to the power of many years of bitter cultivation.
This power was not the slightest bit impure. Every bit of power was incomparably pure. Even if the Peach Stone Dantian purified it, it could not purify much.
Yang Wu finally understood why Little Hei was so anxious. This power was indeed clean enough to make up for some of its losses.
In addition, he also felt that this power was different. It did not seem to be as simple as the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. Instead, it was above it, not to be outdone by the Xuan Qi of Heaven and Earth.
When Yang Wu finished breaking through, his whole body exuded a hazy aura. Not only was his aura more extraordinary, but it also added a bit of a mysterious aura. This was something that other Kings did not have.
In the next moment, Xuan Qi flowed on Yang Wu's body. A pair of sapphire-colored Xuan Qi wings stretched out from both sides of his body. Each wing was astonishingly six feet long, and this was the result of him not using his full strength.
The initial stage Kings could only condense Xuan Qi wings that were ten feet long, and their flying speed could only be regarded as average. However, at the intermediate stage Kings, the longest wings could reach twenty and a half feet long. At the advanced stage Kings, they could reach forty to fifty feet long. Only top Kings could condense Xuan Qi wings that were six feet long.
Yang Wu was only at the intermediate stage King Realm, but he could easily condense the Xuan Qi wings of a top King Realm. This was enough to show how thick his Xuan Qi was.
Then, a pair of silver wings that exuded a cold aura appeared on Yang Wu's body. This pair of silver wings was real, as if they were a part of Yang Wu's body. They were like the wings of an angel. They flapped easily, and their length was not inferior to the Xuan Qi wings. When the two completely different wings flapped at the same time, the power of a hurricane was generated, blowing sand and stones around, and the cold aura was oppressive.
"It really looks good." Yang Wu said with satisfaction, and then he put away both pairs of wings.
Not far away, the three Heavenly Demons were a little dumbfounded.
This was the first time they had seen a human who could condense two pairs of wings. It was really an eye-opener for them. They even suspected that Yang Wu was really of the human race's bloodline.
"Little Wu Zi, no one at the same level as you can fly like this," Little Hei said with a trace of envy.
"That's what I think too." Yang Wu smiled, then walked to the side. His hands grabbed a rock embedded in the mountain, and he suddenly exerted strength. His hands seemed to contain an endless amount of power, and there seemed to be a faint light flickering around them. He forcefully pulled out the large rock.
After he pulled out the large rock, he hugged it with both arms. He didn't seem to use much strength, but the rock was crushed.
Bang!
The rock turned into powder, unable to withstand a single blow.
"Brat, could it be that you've awakened some kind of innate skill?" Little Hei asked.
"It should be a small potential innate skill, like my Wind God's Legs. Now that the acupoints in my arms have greatly increased, it should be called 'Herculean Hands'," Yang Wu said after hesitating for a moment.
"What Herculean Hands? It's clearly the 'Barbarian God's Arms', and it contains a bit of the Barbarian Race's brute force." Little Hei said with a trace of excitement.
After Yang Wu heard this, he nodded in satisfaction and said, "Not bad, 'Barbarian God's Arms' is more appropriate. It's more beneficial for me to display the power of the Barbarian Fist."
"En, don't be too proud. Having more innate skills doesn't necessarily mean that it's a good thing. It's better to be able to display the power of one's innate skill to the extreme. The guy you saw on the forty-ninth step was an existence that displayed the power of his innate skill to the extreme, so you have to make good use of it." Little Hei reminded him.
"Hehe, I feel that having more innate skills isn't necessarily a bad thing. You also have more trump cards. When you fight, you'll be overwhelmed." Yang Wu said with a proud smile.
"If you don't listen to this Immortal Emperor, then you'll suffer."
"Alright, Little Hei, you're becoming more and more wishy-washy."
"Woof, woof, you're looking for a bite!"
"Aiya, Little Hei, you're becoming more and more impudent."
… …
The battle between man and dog continued for a while before it stopped.
Meng Bingxue walked over and said with some emotion, "Let's go down the mountain."
"En, let's go." Yang Wu was in a good mood. He held Meng Bingxue's hand and prepared to go down the mountain.
However, before Yang Wu could take a few steps, the three Sky Demons quickly surrounded him.
"Please wait." The Celestial Beast called out first.
"Seniors, are you trying to force me to stay? I passed the test myself." Yang Wu replied.
"Of course not. You passed the test. We're happy for you." The Celestial Beast said from the bottom of his heart.
"Then that's enough. I want to go down the mountain now. Please make way." Yang Wu said again.
"There's no rush. You're our clan's guest. We have to treat you well." The Celestial Beast said warmly.
"But there are still noble generals waiting for me to go back. I'm afraid they'll be anxious."
"Don't worry. I'll send Second Brother to inform them. Tell them to continue waiting. You can leave whenever you want."
"That's not very good."
"What's not good about it? We're in charge here. Second Brother, go inform the people below. Tell them to continue waiting for our clan's guest."
"Yes, Big Brother. I'll go now."
