Because Xiang Yu knew that the player had no reason to deceive him.
Especially this player reporting the situation to him, he knew well about his character and considered him a close confidant.
As for close confidants.
Xiang Yu was candid and extrely valued them.
After understanding the importance of this Celestial Ladder.
He imdiately led a heavy guard to watch over it.
And began his first tentative steps on the Celestial Ladder.
Tap, tap!
Step by step upward, it wasn’t very strenuous. Xiang Yu walked faster and faster, eventually running, and when he sprinted up several kiloters, overlooking the Lower Realm, the shadow of the Great Army had long vanished, only endless white mist was seen; when he turned his head forward, the Celestial Ladder glead golden, reaching into unknown realms.
It seed to have no end.
"It’s so far!"
Xiang Yu contemplated for a mont, choosing to return to the ground.
He still had lingering concerns in the mortal realm.
To leave.
He needed to resolve these worldly affairs and then ride the Black Steed, taking along his Consort Yhu to ascend the Celestial Ladder together!
"Worthy of Xiang Yu."
The player sighed with envy and admiration.
He also tried to ascend the Celestial Ladder, but an invisible wall blocked him outside.
He simply couldn’t step in.
He understood it was likely due to his strength not eting the requirent, unable to break this barrier himself.
Like Xiang Yu.
With imnse power, he might shatter this invisible barrier with a single step forward.
But for Xiang Yu, what wasn’t a big obstacle was like a Celestial Abyss for him, unreachable!
To put it plainly.
Xiang Yu could easily lift a two-thousand-pound giant cauldron.
Could he?
That’s the gap!
Tap, tap!
Xiang Yu rushed down with the force of a teor crashing, stopping with a ’sudden brake’ to stabilize his body just in ti.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Even Xiang Yu couldn’t help but pant a few breaths, with a subtle expression saying:
"Surely, it’s easy to go up the mountain but hard to co down! This Celestial Ladder, even if one can climb up, it’s definitely hard to co down! A slight mistake and they’ll be shattered into Bone Shards just like nothing!"
Yhu Ziqi and other valiant warriors, upon hearing this, lost their previous eager expression instantly, becoming solemn and serious.
"Long Qie."
Xiang Yu looked over at a burly man on his left:
"Imdiately lead an elite troop south to fetch Consort Yhu."
Long Qie clasped his hands in obedience.
Xiang Yu pondered and called him back:
"Forget it, I will personally go back. This ti I will handle so affairs in the south, and then see if I can bring you all up the Celestial Ladder."
Long Qie, Yhu Ziqi, and others show expressions of joy, worry, or contemplation...
Xiang Yu said no more, directly leaping onto Black Steed’s back, and with its neighing, he gave a clear command, leading a troop of elites south.
...
...
Similar events occurred in the Late Sui Dynasty.
Li Shimin also had people guard the Celestial Ladder there.
But at the sa ti.
So people aspiring to reach higher peaks in the Martial Dao had their hearts set ablaze.
All wanted to attempt ascending the Celestial Ladder to venture into other worlds.
Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong, even Li Yuanba!
All began to stir!
Li Shimin noticed it.
Nervous at heart, he imdiately accelerated reforms and campaigns across regions!
...
...
Three Kingdoms Plane World.
The ti rewinds to the mont Ding Ling was swept away by the golden light.
Diao Chan, Da and Xiao Qiao, Du Qingcheng, Zhen Jiang, Zhao Bingxuan, Zhao Xiaoyiu were all staring dazedly at the Celestial Palace.
So showed grief;
So were at a loss;
So appeared confused, eyes filled with sorrow;
...
Different people, different expressions.
But without exception, they were all downcast at this mont.
They were used to staying by Ding Ling’s side, following him, being his ’Queens’!
Even though Ding Ling never acknowledged them as his Queens.
When many addressed them as Queens, he didn’t deny it, and they had spent quite so ti together.
Especially Diao Chan and several other won who followed Ding Ling for a long ti, living and eating with him, had long been infatuated, refusing to marry anyone else.
Now Ding Ling was gone.
Their hearts seed to have flown away too, feeling hollow, as if sothing was missing, a bit sad, a bit inexplicably sorrowful.
Diao Chan was the first to leap towards the Celestial Ladder and stepped onto it.
No golden light whisked her into the heavens.
But she didn’t seem to be blocked either.
Her heart started pounding wildly, she had an uncertain guess.
She tried walking upward, took ten plus ters.
Suddenly, Xiao Qiao’s voice ca from below, ’Sister Diao Chan!’
Diao Chan’s delicate body trembled slightly.
She looked down, seeing the reluctant and wistful eyes of Da, Xiao Qiao, and others.
She understood, sighed, looked towards the Celestial Palace, bit her lip, and turned back down.
It’s not the ti yet!
"Once Da and Xiao Qiao beco stronger and aren’t blocked by this golden light, we’ll go find Ding Ling together!"
She thought.
In front of outsiders or under public gaze.
They called him Prince.
But in private, Ding Ling didn’t allow such titles.
They didn’t insist either.
In their hearts, addressing him by his na felt more intimate.
"We sisters are one. Can’t leave anyone behind. Otherwise, how could I explain to Ding Ling then?"
Diao Chan thought.
Her spirit beca even more determined.
To get stronger together.
Eventually ascend the Celestial Ladder to find Ding Ling!
...
In the following ti.
Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Taishi Ci, Pan Feng, and others successively arrived.
They attempted to climb the Celestial Ladder too.
They could indeed walk the Celestial Ladder.
But they had worldly attachnts, unable to leave imdiately, deciding to finish mundane affairs first.
"Path to the pinnacle of Martial Dao."
Guan Yu’s eyes burned as if concealing flas:
"I must ascend and see!"
"Second brother, I will accompany you!"
Zhang Fei shouted, voice like thunder.
Guan Yu nodded, looking at Liu Bei.
Liu Bei looked frustrated.
He was blocked and rejected by the golden light!
Unable to set foot on the Celestial Ladder!
"From the present circumstances. To ascend the Celestial Ladder, one likely must reach Super-Elite strength or so."
Guan Yu contemplated:
"Elder brother’s strength isn’t up to par, naturally failing to qualify for the Celestial Ladder."
"You must train diligently next, elder brother."
Zhang Fei hoped earnestly at Liu Bei:
"This is the Celestial Ladder. Can’t tell if the world above is the Martial Arts Immortal Kingdom. If one day we achieve immortality through Martial Dao and live forever, wouldn’t that be more promising than being a general?"
Liu Bei agreed deeply, shaking off his spirits as he spoke:
