Once, twice, three times...
Gu Ding's Will Projection was crushed to pieces again and again, only for him to project it anew each time and begin climbing from the start.
Each time, the Will Projection he re-formed was stronger than before. This proved that within this space, the shattering of his Will Projection not only did not harm Gu Ding's will, but instead made it increasingly solid and profound.
In fact, this was impossible in the Real World. In the Real World, once anyone's Will Projection collapsed, their willpower would suffer a certain degree of damage. Such damage could not be recovered from in a short time, much less make one stronger through repeated collapses. If it could, countless people would likely use this method to temper their willpower strength.
Gu Ding was clearly able to do this because of the Great Will Sky Tablet's special effects. Not only did it increase the recovery speed of his willpower by hundreds of times, it also possessed the special effect of rebuilding after destruction, making Gu Ding's will stronger each time.
Gu Ding no longer remembered how many times his Will Projection had collapsed. He only knew that every newly condensed Will Projection could climb higher than the last.
Seven thousand steps, eight thousand steps, nine thousand steps...
He had even forgotten the passage of time, focused only on climbing to higher steps.
"Eighteen thousand steps. Only the last ten remain, but in order to take even one more step forward, my Will Projection has already collapsed eleven times without making any progress..."
