Chapter 260: The feeling of oppression from the soul
His physical strength seemed to be gradually increasing.
The continuous climbing these days, coupled with the invisible pressure that permeated the Heavenly Road, made Zhang Liang realize that his physical strength was slowly becoming sufficient. At first, he could only hold on for three days, when the pressure was still small. After resting, he was able to hold on for four days, and under the condition of increasing pressure.
Zhang Liang felt that he had revealed a secret. This heavenly road was probably not just a simple test of perseverance, it also had benefits that had not been discovered. In the past, the elite disciples of the temple did not want to waste time here. As soon as they entered, they cast spells with all their strength and rushed forward. But most people failed. Even those who succeeded did not find this holy land that could train their physical fitness due to their limited vision. If Zhang Liang had not felt that his true energy was about to be exhausted, he might have flown past with all his strength like those elite disciples, instead of relying on his physical strength to continue moving forward.
By chance, Zhang Liang obtained the first treasure after entering this place.
Ten days later, Zhang Liang sat on the stairs to rest, slowly clenched his fists, and felt the power contained in his body. He was sure that only a few people could withstand his punch now, and even the big iron hammer, which was famous for its strength, could not compare with his power at this moment.
After a short rest, Zhang Liang set off again. With his strong physique, he had truly climbed more than 9,000 steps. His physical fitness improved significantly, becoming stronger and more terrifying. Twenty days later, he climbed 10,000 steps, and looking back, he was full of pride. Every step witnessed his footsteps, and every step was covered with his sweat.
After resting for a day on the 10,000 steps, Zhang Liang continued to move forward. However, he noticed something strange on the first step. The pressure here was ten times greater than the 10,000 steps below. Zhang Liang knew that his body alone could not support it, so he released his true energy. His true energy was deeper than that of ordinary people, because he practiced the Taixu Body Refining Technique of the cultivation world. After years of practice, the true energy in his body had already surpassed the mundane world and could be called immortal energy.
As his true energy circulated, Zhang Liang suddenly felt much more relaxed. He began to think about another question: the first 10,000 steps had exercised his body, so perhaps these new 10,000 steps had a special function. Zhang Liang mobilized his whole body's true energy and moved steadily upwards.
After three days, his true essence was exhausted, so Zhang Liang had to recover on the spot. He immediately felt the difference in this recovery, which was more than twice as fast as before. Zhang Liang boldly speculated that this new 10,000-step staircase should be able to sharpen the true essence in his body.
After another month, Zhang Liang finally crossed the ten thousand steps, and his true essence was promoted from the peak of the Grandmaster to the realm of the immortal on land. He rested there for another day and stepped onto the 20,000th stone step.
Standing here, Zhang Liang felt another kind of pressure, that is, the oppression from the soul. He felt that his soul was about to leave his body. Zhang Liang slowly gathered his true energy and moved forward step by step with his firm will.
Zhang Liang's guess was correct. This journey was actually a test of the spirit. From the memory of Taixuan Immortal Venerable, he knew that after reaching that level, mental strength was extremely important, and it was called divine consciousness. At that level, just one glance would cause the opponent's spirit to collapse and their souls to fly away.
Zhang Liang has not yet reached that level, but his mental strength has been tempered and has become more resilient and strong.
Three months later, he successfully crossed the entire Heavenly Road. At the top of the Heavenly Road, there was a bubble emitting colorful light. Zhang Liang knew that this was the passage to the inheritance. After he was ready, he stepped in.
After entering, Zhang Liang felt dizzy. Before he could recover, he felt his feet stepping on solid ground. Zhang Liang held his dizzy head and looked forward. He was in a hall. In the hall there was a statue emitting golden light. Zhang Liang understood that this was the master of this place, the head of the four elders, the hero who had conquered the world.
