Lin Chen withdrew his attention and stepped onto the Heavenly Stairway.
The mont Lin Chen’s foot landed on the Heavenly Stairway, an invisible pressure suddenly weighed down on his entire body, as if the gravity had increased, seemingly burdened with a heavy load.
Lin Chen’s footsteps were steady as he walked upward step by step.
The increase in gravity wasn’t particularly noticeable, but every ti he ascended about ten steps, he felt the gravity rise again.
Though the feeling of heaviness on his body grew stronger, everyone who appeared on this Heavenly Stairway was a gifted prodigy of their ti.
Leaving aside their real-world strength, in terms of the Saint’s Initial Realm, these people were undoubtedly the most outstanding, and in this realm, their strength was absolutely the strongest.
Not just Lin Chen, everyone walked very steadily.
Walking up several hundred steps, reaching about halfway beneath the Cloud Sea, Lin Chen already felt as if a towering mountain was pressing down on him, making each step extrely heavy, as if a slight misstep would crush him under the mountain into a pulp.
Lin Chen took a deep breath, his back straightened again, and his steps remained steady and strong.
Although the speed wasn’t fast, it was exceedingly stable.
At this mont, there were people both in front and behind Lin Chen, but those behind him kept their gazes fixated on him.
Obviously, these prodigies of the Heavenly God Clan regarded Lin Chen as a rival, all wanting to surpass him.
Unable to even defeat a different race, could they still be considered a prodigy of the Heavenly God Clan?
Initially, the vast majority advanced faster than Lin Chen, surpassing him, while only a few had not fully recovered, choosing a slower pace to better recover their strength.
Even if they walked slower, they used Lin Chen as a reference.
I can lose to the prodigies of the Heavenly God Clan in front, but not to you, a different race.
However, as they walked and the pressure on them increased, forcing them to slow down, they found that Lin Chen’s steps remained steady and his speed was just as swift.
"Is this guy really so steady?"
The ones following behind Lin Chen tried to quicken their pace, wanting to keep right behind him. But as soon as they sped up, they found the pressure suddenly increased, leading to significant depletion of their spiritual power, and they had to helplessly give up and fall behind.
Lin Chen’s steps were stable as he surpassed one person after another, heading towards the Cloud Sea.
Those overtaken by Lin Chen each felt as if they had been humiliated, either opting to speed up and counter-overtake or to maintain their speed in sync with Lin Chen’s ascent.
Lin Chen ignored their actions, maintaining his walking rhythm and ascending step by step.
The imnse pressure made all the bones in Lin Chen’s body creak, yet his back remained straight.
Resisting this imnse pressure required not only ample spiritual power support but also strong physical fitness.
All the bones in Lin Chen’s body had been tempered into Sword Bone, making them nearly indestructible, granting him a significant advantage in this pressure test, and his Five Elents Spirit Root and initial strength were much higher than others.
When Lin Chen carried this mountain-like pressure and reached the edge of the Cloud Sea, only a few who began with him were left behind him.
Lin Chen took a deep breath and stepped into the Cloud Sea.
Suddenly, in front of Lin Chen was a land of icy snow, vast Heaven and Earth, with towering ice mountains everywhere, and wherever the eye could see, it was all snow white.
Is this an illusionary realm?
What should I do now?
Lin Chen carefully observed his surroundings, only to find that the surrounding ice mountains were towering, but the ones close to him were the lowest, and further ahead, the ice mountains beca taller.
Am I supposed to climb the tallest ice peak?
Then let’s walk forward.
At this mont, Lin Chen no longer felt the mountain-like pressure, but in this glacier, he had lost his ability to fly, as if he were a mortal.
Lin Chen took steps, treading on the snow of the glacier, moving into the distance.
The vast Heaven and Earth, Lin Chen walked for a long ti.
As Lin Chen crossed one glacier after another, the surrounding temperature beca ever colder, he felt his body begin to numb as if frozen stiff in the snow.
Lin Chen wanted to start a fire to warm himself, but he had lost all his divine powers and there wasn’t even a single tree here.
If I keep walking like this, when will I reach the end?
Am I even on the right path?
The cold air continually corroded Lin Chen’s body, gradually freezing his thoughts, making him numb.
He began to forget why he was here, why he had to walk.
He stopped and looked around in confusion.
"Who am I?"
"Where am I?"
"What am I supposed to do?"
So tired!
Lin Chen sat down on the Ice Plain, his consciousness becoming hazy.
Suddenly, it seed as though a voice from the Nine Heavens rumbled in the air above.
"What are you sleeping for? Get up and unleash your energy!"
Lin Chen imdiately sat up from the Ice Plain, his frozen mind shattering with a splash, snapping him entirely awake.
Wow, this voice belongs to the Creation God, doesn’t it?
What is he doing?
Could he have made an appearance?
A shiver ran through Lin Chen, and a cold sweat covered his back, bringing back all his mories in that tremble.
Wasn’t I climbing the Heavenly Stairway?
After entering the Cloud Sea, I crossed into this glacier, which should be so sort of illusionary Array Formation.
I should still be on the Heavenly Stairway, but whether I can break out of the illusionary realm depends on whether I can cross this glacier and snowfield to climb that highest ice peak.
Fully awake, Lin Chen regained his drive, getting up from the snow to continue forward.
Walking along, Lin Chen worried; that phrase was sothing he jokingly said to the Creation God before, and now he used it to awaken himself. He didn’t know if it would alarm the Fire God and Earth God.
A bit panicky indeed.
Lin Chen kept this concern in his heart, and suddenly the external cold didn’t seem so cold anymore, making his steps lighter.
Every ti the surrounding frost invaded his thoughts again, the Creation God’s voice would resound in his mind, giving him a start and instantly waking him up.
After several rounds of this, Lin Chen finally crossed the vast glacier and snowfield, climbing to the high peak at the end of the glacier world.
Upon finally reaching the high peak and moving toward the bright light at its summit, Lin Chen’s eyes lit up.
The surrounding glacier vanished instantly.
He stood on the Heavenly Stairway, beneath him was a thick Cloud Sea, and above, the stairway continued to extend upward, while at the very top of the Heavenly Stairway, a golden door stood open.
Could that be the end of the Heavenly God Paradise?
