High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 392 - 314: The Iron Path of the Impregnable Pass, Th
A thousand ters away, the Tower of Power still appeared as the ruinous image from mory, yet the golden light streaming from it emanated a grand and majestic force.
Like a seeker of truth.
Su Mu took a deep breath and stepped into the thousand-ter range, and instantly, the surrounding gravity increased dramatically.
In an instant, it surpassed twenty tis gravity.
Twenty-one tis.
Twenty-three tis.
Twenty-seven tis.
Thirty tis!
Su Mu walked steadily, not hurriedly, and with each breath, the gravity had already exceeded thirty tis, and this ti, the Secret of Power also began to operate uncontrollably.
The Power of Origin, which Fifth Forging Grandmaster Jing He yearned for before his death, shimred on Su Mu, radiant and golden.
The next second.
The Tower of Power seed to sense Su Mu’s arrival, as if it had been waiting for a long ti. From the ruined, weather-beaten tower, a golden beam that had perhaps endured countless ages was once again released.
Like a golden beam existing since ancient tis, it cut through the dark night, reaching the heavens and connecting the earth.
Along with it, a wave of Origin of Power spread around the ruined tower, its grand golden brilliance shining like a galaxy beneath the spectacle of the Origin of Power.
Compared to it, the light on Su Mu was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.
Yet, despite feeling insignificant, Su Mu did not feel a trace of fear, an inexplicable excitent spread in his heart.
"Is this a test?"
As the Origin of Power erged, with the thirty tis gravity further enhanced by the Rule of Force, the feeling instantly reached an astonishing fifty tis!
Even Su Mu felt his whole body sink, as if a great mountain was pressing on his shoulders. He was carrying mountains; under the terrifying gravity of fifty tis, the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique began to operate spontaneously as a subconscious response of his flesh to danger.
"The iron barricades of this arduous path, here I co!"
Su Mu’s eyes sharpened, his pace quickened, for how could re fifty tis gravity bind his flesh which had undergone two transformations through the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique.
"I don’t need to operate the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique."
Su Mu actively dispersed the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique and suppressed the golden sea of blood surging within, leaving his flesh completely exposed to the oppressive force without any protection.
The terrifying oppression from above and internally made Su Mu’s breathing a bit rapid as if countless invisible hamrs were continuously falling, pounding his flesh, even penetrating into his blood, muscles, and the Five Viscera and Six Viscera.
"So what, my Five Viscera and Six Viscera have long been refined multiple tis with Essence Blood, my martial arts are far from ordinary..."
Under such terrifying pressure, an ordinary Grandmaster could only fiercely circulate Qi and blood to protect themselves.
Under enormous gravity, Su Mu’s body sank violently, his feet deep into the yellow sand, yet he resolutely extracted his foot from the yellow sand and took a step forward.
One step.
Five steps.
Ten steps.
Fifty steps.
The terrifying gravity caused Su Mu’s eyes to fill with blood, and every inch of his flesh signalled a warning of danger, yet Su Mu found that under this trendous pressure, every cell within his body began a frantic self-preservation.
This was the oppressive feeling that even the Martial Saint Illusion could not provide him; Su Mu’s perception of gravity had beco blurry, and he suspected it had already neared a hundred tis.
Thus, every cell within him accelerated the absorption of energy, turning into black holes swallowing the Qi Blood Power of the golden sea of blood, countering the terrifying gravity that enveloped him.
This was both a process of self-preservation and a journey towards the third transformation of his flesh.
"A jade must be carved to beco a vessel."
"There is great fortune between life and death, indeed it’s correct."
"Continue."
Sixty steps.
Eighty steps.
Ninety steps!
At ninety steps, the Tower of Power was already within reach, just ten steps away.
At this mont, Su Mu recalled an ancient saying from his past life: A hundred steps, yet half remain at ninety.
His brain continually clamored for the operation of the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique, yet Su Mu forcibly suppressed this survival instinct.
"Unnecessary."
In so ways, Su Mu was a madman, possessing an almost obsessive persistence.
Once soone like him set his mind on sothing, he would never give up.
Just like his initial grueling struggle to break through as a Third Level Martial Artist for ten years, though on his birthday he drank away his sorrows and spoke of giving up, with his nature, he would inevitably plunge back into the struggle the next day.
Also like when he once read those two letters, he never forgot for a mont, determined to kill that father and son duo.
All the more so like when he recently saw the Overlord Blade Martial Saint draw his blade, he couldn’t help but draw his as well.
Since the Tower of Power triggered the Origin of Power, there was no need to wield any other force.
"This is a test of the Origin of Power."
Taking a deep breath, before stepping into the last ten steps, Su Mu activated the Secret of Power.
Buzz------
At this mont, suddenly, Su Mu’s Sea of Consciousness trembled fiercely. This ti, after the Crystal Human Form was ford, he finally vaguely sensed the inheritance of the Secret of Power left by the purple figure in his Sea of Consciousness.
It was right at the center of his Sea of Consciousness, suspended above the Crystal Human Form.
It was a mass of brilliant golden light, the fist shadow tearing the firmant, the crystal block containing the Incomplete Crystal Observation Technique, and the Crystal Human Form all paled in comparison to it.
Such a radiant thing, yet until now, Su Mu had never detected it.
"No wonder it surpasses the existence of a Martial Saint... such mysterious ans."
And at this mont...
There were signs of the Fourth Layer of the Secret of Power being unsealed.
Su Mu’s lips slightly curled, as if all was as expected, yet if this smile fell into others’ eyes, and paired with his bloodshot eyes, anyone would think he was mad.
In the instant the Secret of Power operated, the once majestic and intimidating beam of light from the Tower of Power turned into benevolence.
This was affinity of the sa origin.
The last ten steps were effortless for Su Mu, and finally, he stood in front of the Tower of Power for the second ti.
In the golden beam, ripples like water’s surface erged, then from within, a golden light projected down, morphing into a purple human figure. The mont the figure appeared.
Purple ripples beneath their feet spread instantly, then covered the entire Land of Yellow Sands, causing everything to stop, the snowflakes in the sky, the cold wind between heaven and earth, even the three Martial Arts Grandmasters from Gaoshan City waiting in the Land of Yellow Sands.
Ti completely stood still at this mont.
All this because of the arrival of this purple figure.
"Little one, this is our third eting..."
"With your realm, reaching this point purely with your flesh is not easy..."
"I hope when we et next, it will be when you have unsealed the Fifth Layer of the Secret of Power, or at least beco a Ninth Level Apprentice..."
This purple figure felt unfamiliar to Su Mu, like a completely different entity from the two purple illusions he had encountered before.
Indifferent yet majestic.
But the words made Su Mu certain, before him was indeed the sa person.
"Yet, since you’re here, I can’t let you co for nothing."
"Little one, I can answer a question for you, think carefully before asking."
