After climbing an unknown number of stone steps, Ling Chuxi's white dress turned blood red. Fine blood seeped out of her pores, dyeing her clothes red, and also the stone steps under her feet.
Dongfang yunhua was right, the might of heaven and earth contained in this sky-climbing ladder was indeed not something that anyone could contend against. An invisible force enveloped her, and there were a few times when she was almost pulled down by that mysterious force, but she managed to hold on each time.
"Ka!" Under the immense pressure, Ling Chuxi's legs went soft and she fell down the stone steps. A heart-wrenching pain came from her knees and her long pants, which had been stained with blood, were now bleeding.
In the face of this powerful might of heaven and earth, her cultivation base at the peak of the monarch level was not much different from that of ordinary people. She was so weak.
"Could it be that I really have to give up?" Ling Chuxi looked at the endless sky-climbing ladder and felt helpless for the first time in her life.
"No! I can't give up!" Ling Chuxi stood up abruptly and began to climb upwards.
A blood-red misty light flickered around her like a flame.
"Is this girl Crazy? Even if she burns her blood essence, how many steps can she climb? is she going to keep burning like this? does she want to die?" Dongfang Yunhui's expression suddenly changed.
Even Meng Zheng's expression changed, revealing a look of admiration.
Although the descendants of the demon race had always been known for their perseverance, if he were to ask himself honestly, Ling Chuxi's determination and persistence was something that even he would find difficult to achieve.
In the past, he had thought that he had lost to Ling Chuxi because his talent was not as good as hers, and that his fate was not as good as hers. Only now did he know that his defeat was actually because of his persistent belief.
On the endless peaks, Ling Fenghua, who was also dressed in white, stood against the wind. Her expression was calm, but the tears in her eyes clearly revealed the uneasiness and anxiety in her heart.
"Miss, why don't you ask little master to give up? if this continues, I'm afraid she'll be seriously injured." Behind them, ah Luo said to Ling Fenghua with a worried expression.
She had protected Ling Chuxi for a very long time. Although she had not appeared, she had watched her gain a foothold in the ethereal sect residence and watched her grow step by step. She also had feelings for her and was afraid that she would not be able to withstand the power of heaven and earth and suffer heavy losses.
"No need, this is also a test for her, let her hold on a little longer." Ling Fenghua said.
"But, she's only at the peak of the monarch level. Even if she's at the sovereign level, how many people can climb up this ten thousand step Stairway to Heaven? If I wasn't a descendant of the heaven seeking sect and grew up on the endless peak, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to climb up here. " A-Qing said worriedly.
"I believe in her. Since she could e to the heaven domain from the human dimension, she won't let us down." Dongfang Chenqing's confident voice rang out behind him.
"Mother, you've e too." Ling Fenghua turned around and bowed.
"How can I not e when I see you in a state of panic? If you're worried, you can just say it. Why do you have to endure it?" Dongfang Chenqing smoothed the hair on her daughter's forehead that had been ruffled by the mountain wind and said with pity.
"Mother, are you really not worried?" Ling Fenghua asked.
"Don't forget, she's a descendant of our Dongfang family, and also a descendant of the Ling family. " Dongfang Chenqing said proudly as she looked at the unyielding figure through the clouds.
A blood-red flame flickered outside her body. Ling Chuxi once again burned her blood essence and her face became even paler.
