Chapter 1115: Chapter 11142: Why Blow Up Someone's Heavenly Ladder Tower? (First Update) Chapter 1115: Chapter 11142: Why Blow Up Someone's Heavenly Ladder Tower? (First Update) Upon hearing Nine Dragons' words, everyone present almost burst out laughing, almost laughing out of frustration.
They had originally thought that only Yang Zhen was so boastful, but now it seemed that Nine Dragons Saint's blind trust in Yang Zhen was even more despicable than Yang Zhen himself.
However, as detestable as it was, since the other party was Nine Dragons Saint, even the Heaven Mountain Holy Lord merely paused for a moment before chuckling and saying no more. What could the others possibly say?
While everyone had their own thoughts, the light for the fourth rung suddenly lit up.
This… left everyone present dumbfounded!
Yang Zhen had truly forgotten that he was now inside the Heavenly Ladder Tower of Heaven Mountain Holy Land, and that there were many people watching from outside.
It wasn't until after Yang Zhen had climbed to the fourth rung that he suddenly realized, could his high-profile remarks bring unnecessary trouble?
“Damn it, I almost forgot, on this Sao Saint, trouble is just trouble, there's no need to distinguish between necessary and unnecessary. Besides, now that this Sao Saint has reached the fourth rung, who knows? Maybe those people still think I'm stuck unable to move on the first level!”
After coming up with a reason for himself, Yang Zhen felt much more at ease.
After all, there were so many restrictions inside the Heavenly Ladder Tower; it was such a mess that even Yang Zhen could not keep track of which rung he was on.
Yang Zhen couldn't care less about how others saw him now. After climbing to the fourth rung, he suddenly sensed a familiar presence within the Heavenly Ladder Tower.
A familiar presence?
It was Sao Saint's first time in the Heavenly Ladder Tower, how could there be a familiar presence?
The Ksitigarbha Skill of the fourth rung, which was already a higher-level existence in the Heavenly Book's Ksitigarbha Chapter, could not be mastered by anyone with Saint Realm cultivation. It's no wonder the expressions on Du Kang and Ma Hui Cao's faces looked so strange when they entered; each level of the Heavenly Ladder Tower was more terrifying than the last.
But… that familiar presence became thicker and thicker.
Seeing Yang Zhen ascend to the fourth rung, the area around the entire Heavenly Ladder Tower fell silent, leaving only the heavy breathing of Du Kang and Ma Hui Cao and the sound of many disciples swallowing.
Before long, the fifth rung lit up, and aside from a few elders, Heaven Mountain Holy Lord, and Nine Dragons Saint, the pupils of many other disciples of Heaven Mountain Holy Land almost popped out.
The most nervous ones now were Fu Yao and Li Qingfeng, both of whom were all too familiar with the fifth rung. The restrictions there were not something that an average Half-step Great Saint could withstand.
If the situation had been appropriate, Li Qingfeng felt he might have yelled out, cursing Yang Zhen to be struck dead by heavenly thunder.
But it didn't happen.
The glow from the sixth rung gradually began to emerge.
Fu Yao called out softly, covering her mouth tightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.
In the few days Fu Yao had spent with Yang Zhen, she had never felt anything special about him but now… that smiling young man, who looked so radiant when he laughed, was actually going to challenge the sixth rung.
What did it feel like to challenge the sixth rung?
This was something that Fu Yao and Li Qingfeng were most qualified to speak on, even more so than the Heaven Mountain Holy Lord and a few other elders.
Watching as the light on the sixth rung flickered, indicating that it may not stabilize any time soon, Li Qingfeng let out a sigh of relief, flicked his sleeve, and started laughing, “I truly did not expect that Daoist Yang would have such talent, but that's all there is to it. Looking at the current situation, he absolutely cannot break through the sixth rung. When I made my lucky breakthrough to the sixth rung, I also suffered a great impact and took a whole day to grasp the intricacies, which I can later pass on to Master Fu Yao…”
Buzz—-!
A buzzing sound rang out, the light of the sixth rung suddenly intensified, as brilliant as the light that brightens the world. With a boom that seemed to reach the heavens and pierce the earth, even the Heaven Mountain Holy Lord involuntarily let out a light cry, astonished at the unprecedented brilliance of the sixth rung.
“He actually made it up!”
Elder Yan, with a mix of excitement, said, “The Heavenly Ladder Tower has only eight rungs in total. No one so young has ever reached above the sixth rung; I hope young friend Yang can keep pushing forward.”
Unknowingly, Elder Yan's way of addressing Yang Zhen had changed.
Li Qingfeng opened his mouth wide, as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
Fu Yao pursed her lips, holding back a laugh. She glanced at Li Qingfeng inadvertently and could no longer restrain herself, bursting into laughter.
As the light of the seventh step gradually brightened, the dazzle before everyone's eyes suddenly dimmed, making them feel as if they'd shot up to the ninth layer of clouds only to crash back down.
Elder Yan said in a deep voice, “The restriction on the seventh step is several times more terrifying than that of the sixth step. Nine Dragons Saint, can Yang Zhen's cultivation… hold up?”
Nine Dragons shook his head and said, “I don't know!”
His answer couldn't have been more straightforward.
People's mouths twitched, thinking, if you don't know, then how dare you claim Yang Zhen wouldn't spare anything inside the Heavenly Ladder Tower?
Taking a deep breath, Elder Yan had someone bring over chairs, and after everyone was seated, he spoke soberly, “In my estimation, young friend Yang might have to stay within the sixth step for a quite long… ”
Hum—-!
The light of the seventh step erupted anew, even more dazzling than the burst of light from the sixth step.
Elder Yan's face spasmed, and he gritted his teeth as he said, “He actually broke through the seventh step. If Yang Zhen wants to challenge the eighth step, it might take at least three days… This monster!”
Boom—-!
The eighth step lit up!
Accompanying its illumination were the eyes of the Heaven Mountain Holy Lord; even Nine Dragons inhaled sharply, staring in disbelief at the now radiant eighth step.
Elder Yan and several other elders were already speechless, exchanging incredulous looks among themselves.
They had entered the eighth step before, but how could Yang Zhen, with his age and cultivation, endure the terrifying restrictions there?
It was simply impossible!
The deeper one's understanding of the Heavenly Ladder Tower was, the more vividly they could imagine the agonizing torment Yang Zhen must be withstanding after ascending to the eighth step.
“Quick, prepare for a rescue!” Elder Yan urgently ordered.
Even without Nine Dragons Great Saint's intervention, Elder Yan wouldn't stand by and watch such a talented youth perish within the Heavenly Ladder Tower.
The expressions of the few elders turned grave, ready to rush in and save Yang Zhen at any moment, and even the Heaven Mountain Holy Lord and Nine Dragons grew serious.
On the eighth step, Yang Zhen used the Ksitigarbha Skill to perfect the Heavenly Book's Ksitigarbha Chapter and then stretched lazily, causing his body to emit a series of cracking sounds.
Comfortable!
Who could have thought that simply entering any Heavenly Ladder Tower would enable one to perfect and complement the contents of the Heavenly Book's Ksitigarbha Chapter? It was just a bit regrettable that the Heavenly Book's Xuan Principle Chapter seemed not to have been perfected, with the content on the eighth step leaning more towards the Ksitigarbha Skill.
As Yang Zhen looked to climb once again, he discovered that the Heavenly Ladder Tower had no ninth step.
Was it time to descend now?
Yang Zhen felt somewhat disappointed, as he had wanted to stay up there for a longer time.
Right at that moment, within the eighth step, the winds surged and the heavens churned. A beam of light flitted across the sky, like the sword that created the world, completely cleaving the space of the eighth step apart.
Yang Zhen leaped in alarm, scrambling to the side as he looked around in astonishment, sensing the mysterious and yet familiar aura.
After a moment, Yang Zhen burst into uproarious laughter, stood up, and said, “What a deceptive ruse! To think that the Ksitigarbha Skill can be used like this. No wonder this Sao Saint always felt there was a familiar aura here. It turns out there is another world within the eighth step.”
“Heavenly Profound Yang creates, Earth engenders Yin. Life and death, the eight gates, open for this Sao Saint!”
Boom—-!
The entire Heavenly Ladder Tower exploded!
The face of the Heaven Mountain Holy Lord and Nine Dragons changed dramatically, especially Nine Dragons, who, beyond his shock, cursed loudly, “You damn kid, why the hell are you blowing up the Heavenly Ladder Tower for no good reason?”
