Chapter 168 Ladder to Heaven Zhang Xuanlin looked at Gu Yuanqing again. He had waited for a few extra days. In addition to wanting to take a look at the Tongtian Monument, he also wanted to take the opportunity to see Gu Yuanqing's background. Gu Yuanqing rose suddenly during these four years. In addition to coincidence and fortuitous encounter, another possibility was that he was possessed by another spirit. Although it doesn't seem like it from the way he speaks and behaves, these things can be faked. But this opportunity under the Tongtian Monument cannot be faked. "Could he really be a native of this world? It is said that before a world is destroyed, it will gather its luck to create a person of destiny, so that they can fight to the death. This Gu Yuanqing may be such a person, and now this world has indeed obtained such an opportunity." "If you win, you will become Linglong from now on, and you won't have to worry about being swallowed by the Demon Realm. If you lose, this world will have no chance at all." All kinds of thoughts flashed through Zhang Xuanlin's mind. Ji Qingyun's disappointment flashed across his face. When he heard about the Tongtian Tablet, he had hoped that he could also climb the ladder to heaven. After all, he had lived in this realm for 500 years, which was longer than anyone else in this world. Perhaps he would have a chance. But now the facts have told him the result. "Someone has entered the ladder." Gu Yuanqing suddenly said.

Zhang Xuanlin and others looked towards the Tongtian Monument, and indeed saw names appearing on the monument. Behind the names was the number of steps that had been crossed, which was zero at that moment. Suddenly, the names above stopped changing, Li Shian's name was fixed at the top, and the number of steps on the ladder behind the name became one. Gu Yuanqing looked at where Li Shian was, only to see that he had opened his eyes and was holding a jade bottle in his hand. "Please wait a moment, Senior. I will be back soon after I get it." The next second, Gu Yuanqing crossed the space and came to Li Shian's side. "Why did you quit so quickly? You can only enter the ladder once a day." Li Shian looked at the jade bottle, then at the Tongtian Stele, and asked, "How long has it been since the ladder to heaven was opened?" Gu Yuanqing said: "It was only a few breaths of time, what happened?" Li Shian murmured to himself: "It's only been a few breaths. I thought it was a long, long time." Gu Yuanqing felt that Li Shijiean was a little strange, and frowned and asked: "Senior, what's wrong with you?" Li Shian took a deep breath, closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Master Gu. I just stepped into the ladder and experienced an illusion. It was too real and I haven't recovered yet. This ladder is indeed magical. I felt like a lifetime had passed in it, but in the outside world it was only a moment." Gu Yuanqing saw that Li Shian was still a little upset, so he said, "Senior, you should take a good rest first and calm your mind. Don't let this affect your cultivation level." "I understand!" Li Shian nodded with a smile. Suddenly, they heard a loud laugh. They turned around and found that it was Ji Dai. He laughed, but then burst into tears. Li Shian asked: "Brother Ji, what are you doing?" Ji Dai burst into tears: "It turns out that after so many years, I still can't forget it!" Qin Wuya, who was in the courtyard next to him, came over after hearing the voice and asked, "Senior Ji, what's this?" Li Shian said: "You haven't entered the ladder yet, right?"

"No, I just digested the news from the voice I heard, and then I heard a noise over here, so I came to take a look." "Then you'll know when you go in later." Li Shian said. Gu Yuanqing asked: "Is the jade bottle in your hand what you got from the Heavenly Ladder?" Li Shian nodded and said, "It should be a bottle of marrow cleansing liquid. Taking it can improve your aptitude. It should be similar to the effect of Master Gu's spiritual spring in the mountains." While talking, he suddenly saw a name on the Tongtian Monument named Shen Yurong, who surpassed Li Shian to the top, and the number of ladders behind him was two. In the palace, Li Haotian did not enter the ladder immediately. He said to Xu Lianying, "Tell the Tiance Mansion to record the outstanding people on the ladder list. These people may be talented and it would be best if they could be controlled by the court." "Yes!" In a small town on the edge of the Daqian border. "Shen San, what are you daydreaming about? I asked you to work early in the morning, but you are slacking off here. What? Do you want to climb the ladder to heaven? Don't you look in the mirror? Don't you know what kind of material you are?" "Butler Qi, why can't I do it?" A young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old was dressed in servant's clothes and holding a broom in his hand. "How dare you talk back? I tell you, stop daydreaming and get to work. If you don't clean up the yard this morning, don't eat! Also, don't get close to the young lady in the future. Who are you? Are there things you can think of?" Then Butler Qi snorted arrogantly and left the courtyard. "You look down on people. In a few days, I will not be working here anymore." The young man cursed in a low voice and hid the jade bottle in his arms more securely. His original name was Shen Yurong. He was the third child in the family. Everyone called him Shen San. Except for his parents, few people knew his real name. After passing two levels of the ladder, a bottle of elixir, and a technique, his heart, which was already unwilling to be ordinary, began to burn. The ladder to heaven is the road to heaven. He came from an ordinary family, and his family had difficulty even getting food, let alone practicing. But now, the opportunity has come, and he believes that as long as he seizes the opportunity, he can make a name for himself! People like Shen Yurong are everywhere in the world. Practicing cultivation requires talent, financial resources, and skills, otherwise one cannot even enter the Yuanshi realm. Now God has given an opportunity. For those who are unwilling to be ordinary, it is the greatest opportunity. As long as you can pass the ladder of heaven, you will have everything. During this day, almost all the people in the world entered the ladder to heaven, but only a few were able to climb to the second step. The back mountain of Beiquan. "Mr. Gu, have you ever climbed the ladder to heaven?" Zhang Xuanlin asked. Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Not yet." “Why? Even if a lifetime passes in the Heavenly Ladder, it is just a blink of an eye in the outside world.” Zhang Xuanlin said. Gu Yuanqing said, "No hurry. The things we got from the ladder ahead are nothing to me. Senior, are you really determined to leave?" Zhang Xuanlin took another look at the Tongtian Monument, sighed, and said, "It's time to go. We have seen everything we should see. There are some things we have to go back to deal with in advance, otherwise it will be too late to regret when the disaster comes. Mr. Gu, please send us out of the mountain." Gu Yuanqing hesitated a little: "Is it really impossible for Yamauchi?" "It really doesn't work. I have already tried it. Even if Mr. Gu released his suppression of my spiritual thoughts, this mountain formation seems to be a world of its own. My spiritual thoughts are completely unable to break through the space and contact my original body through the realm of nothingness." Zhang Xuanlin was amazed. "Okay then!" Gu Yuanqing waved his hand, and the two of them came to the outside of Beiquan Mountain. Zhang Xuanlin suddenly felt the feeling of being suppressed disappear. He tried to contact the original body, but after a moment, he couldn't help but said loudly: "Master Gu, I may need to go further. It seems that I still can't break through and contact the original body beside this mountain." Gu Yuanqing gathered Beiquan Mountain's aura with his mind and said in a voice transmission, "Try it now."

Zhang Xuanlin tried again at this time, and indeed he sensed the aura of the original body through the secret method. When he looked towards Beiquan Mountain, he was secretly startled in his heart. This scene explained a lot of things. The outside of Beiquan Mountain can still block the connection between him and his original body, which means that the essential level of the formation in Beiquan Mountain may be higher than his original level! A moment later, Ji Qingyun next to him suddenly appeared with a glowing light and disappeared out of thin air. Just as Zhang Xuanlin was about to be taken away, he suddenly took out the Burning Heaven Tower from the storage bag on his waist and threw it into the mountain. "The previous ones were just transactions, so this tower can be regarded as a good relationship with Master Gu. Perhaps you can use it." As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xuanlin's divine consciousness broke through the space and was led away. Then, the puppet's body flashed with light, and it seemed to be pulled away from somewhere out of thin air. Gu Yuanqing did not stop him, but his heavenly pupil had already opened, and his gaze penetrated the space and fell into a secret room at the bottom of Lingxiao Mountain. The disappeared puppet suddenly appeared here. He tossed the Burning Heaven Tower in his hand and whispered to himself, "Good fate?" (End of this chapter)
