Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation-Chapter 620 - 326: Opportunities on the Trial Heavenly Stair
Chapter 620: Chapter 326: Opportunities on the Trial Heavenly Stair
The Trial Space seemed like a small world, complete with sky and earth, mountains and forests, as well as the sun, moon, and stars. Now, it was approaching evening. The sun had set, and the moon was gradually starting to peek out from the horizon.
On the first thousand steps of the Trial Heavenly Stair, Lu Yun slightly trembled, pausing there.
The wind and snow were like knives, slicing past his face.
Even if his physical strength was sealed, his body was already comparable to a spirit weapon. The knife-like wind and snow could not leave any scratch marks on him.
But he could most definitely feel the bone-chilling cold.
What made him uncomfortable was the constant oppressive force weighing down on him, wanting to knock him off the Trial Heavenly Stair.
One could say that the oppressive force here far exceeded that on the 999th step of the Trial Heavenly Stair.
But Lu Yun didn’t stop for that reason.
No matter how strong the oppressive force here, it hadn’t reached his limit. Relying on the physical strength he had previously recovered, he could still continue to climb.
What made him stop was the startling realization that one of the Elephant Microparticles within his body had suddenly awakened.
Under the circumstance where he hadn’t been cultivating the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, one Elephant Microparticle woke up in just a breath’s time which was simply unbelievable.
No, there seemed to be an unusually potent energy here.
This energy was incredibly mystical. If one didn’t perceive it carefully, it would be impossible to notice.
Just as he was having doubts, a few more Elephant Microparticles within his body woke up.
Thus, without any further hesitation, he sat cross-legged in place, closed his eyes, and started cultivating the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength.
The sight of Lu Yun sitting cross-legged did not attract much attention from others.
Due to the ordeal of the wind and snow and the strong oppressive force on the Trial Heavenly Stair, many people, exhausted, would rest in place momentarily before continuing their climb. Seeing someone like Lu Yun was not unusual.
As his cultivation technique cycled, the awakening speed of the Elephant Microparticles increased. It went from one awakening with each breath to five.
This made Lu Yun very pleased and hopeful. If he could once again awaken all 108,000 Elephant Microparticles in his body, he could accept not being a formal disciple of the Green Flame Palace.
As time passed, the rate of elevation slowed.
Initially, five Elephant Microparticles were awakening with each breath.
Then, four Elephant Microparticles were waking up with each breath.
Afterwards, only three microparticles managed to awaken per breath.
It continued to go downhill, with only one microparticle awakening after every other breath.
After about a thousand Elephant Microparticles woke up, the speed decreased to its lowest point, which wasn’t much faster than when he practiced normally.
Lu Yun looked calm without any signs of disappointment.
In less than an hour, a thousand Elephant Microparticles woke up. This was already a significant gain.
He glanced at the rankings of the Trial Heavenly Ladder.
First place, Zhang Henshui, the 3,120th rank.
Second place, Yuan Fei, the 2,952nd rank.
Third place, Ye Wang, the 2,620th rank.
Fourth place, Wuchen, the 2,590th rank.
…
The 68,052nd place, Lu Yun, the 1,000th rank.
Having been delayed for half an hour, he was significantly distanced from the top group.
“This Trial Heavenly Stair might be a significant opportunity for me, there’s no need to hurry up.”
With this thought, Lu Yun started to lift his right foot, climbing towards the next step.
Although another thousand Elephant Microparticles had awakened in his body, his physical strength was still sealed and could not help him climb the Trial Heavenly Stair.
The enormous oppressive force acting on his entire body, however, couldn’t prevent him from stepping onto the next step.
After stepping onto the 1001st step, he didn’t continue to climb but paused at the spot.
The pressure increased slightly, so did the wind and snow, but there was no movement from the Elephant Microparticles in his body.
Lu Yun shook his head slightly and continued to climb.
The 1001st step, no movement.
The 1002nd step, no movement.
…
The 1015th step, still no movement.
By this point, Lu Yun knew that the opportunity sites at the 1000th Trial Heavenly Stair might be scarce, or perhaps there might only be one.
Thus, he no longer probed carefully but accelerated his pace.
While constantly pushing his limits, his physical strength was gradually recovering, with strength gradually being released, perfectly offsetting the oppressive force from the Trial Heavenly Stair and the piercing cold.
In this process of resistance and recovery, his degree of control over his physical strength gradually increased.
Actually, this is also one of the roles of the Trial Heavenly Stair.
However, most people are earnestly resisting the pressure from the Trial Heavenly Stair, climbing upwards, and haven’t noticed this subtle enhancement.
Once Lu Yun accelerated his speed, his rank in the Trial Heavenly Stair rankings began to rise rapidly.
He was originally one of the front-runners, and now he was just trying to catch up. The sharp increase in ranking did not attract other people’s attention.
Unless he could quickly break into the top hundred.
However, judging from the current situation, it seemed unlikely.
At the 1999th step of the Trial Heavenly Stair, Lu Yun paused there, looking around, especially at the bright moon in the sky.
By now, it was already night time, with the moon bright and the stars sparse.
Bathing in the faint moonlight evoked a rather comfortable feeling.
But, of course, if there hadn’t been such a wave-like oppressive force and the howling wind and snow, it would have been even more comfortable.
