Martial Arts Heavenly Ladder Second Layer

In the following days, Jiang Ye cultivated in the Key Class.

The Martial Arts teacher of Class 1 was the bearded man Jiang Ye had met before, named Cao Feng.

However, in Jiang Ye's opinion, the teaching quality of the Key Class was no different from Chen Zilu's.

It was even inferior to Chen Zilu in certain details.

Also.

Without the Friend of the Ancestor's 30% comprehension bonus, the bottleneck Jiang Ye needed to break through to reach perfection was delayed by quite a few days compared to what he had anticipated.

In the blink of an eye, it was already January of 2326.

On this day.

At home.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Jiang Ye's figure swayed, sometimes throwing punches, sometimes striking with his elbows. Each move he executed was as natural and fluid as flowing water, without any sense of stagnation.

With each exertion of force, every inch of muscle in his body responded to each other in rhythm, like precisely operating gears, forming a perfect closed loop of power.

Gradually.

Every bit of force he exerted became more and more complete.

Without the slightest leakage.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, it was as if a certain bottleneck had been broken.

"Boom!"

In an instant, an incomparably pleasant sensation burst forth from the depths of his soul, like a seed buried under rain and snow breaking out of the soil.

A sense of transparency and lightness, like a spring breeze turning into rain, arose spontaneously.

"Finally."

"The Star Martial Cultivation Method is perfected, I've broken through!"

Jiang Ye slowly retracted his power, looking at his body.

At this moment, he could feel that every inch of his skin had become incredibly sensitive, under his absolute control.

He closed his eyes.

He could hear faint sounds coming from a hundred meters away.

He could even sense the movement of dust in the air.

His Five Senses were almost integrated into the surrounding environment.

"In ancient times, cultivating to this point was called Unity of Heaven and Man."

Communing with heaven and earth!

Jiang Ye opened his eyes, his face filled with undisguised joy.

After two and a half years of hard training, he had finally achieved his initial goal.

Although his current goals were no longer limited to this, he was still overjoyed.

[Detecting that your strength has reached the System's new limit!]
[Unlocked Title: Limit Grandmaster]
[Limit Grandmaster: The pinnacle of Martial Arts, it is lonely at the top, surpassing countless martial artists.]

Jiang Ye automatically skipped these embarrassing boasts.

Looking at this reward.

[Reward: Physique Transformation, upgraded to Mortal Body Armor - Upper Grade]

"Mortal Body Armor - Upper Grade?!" Jiang Ye's heart trembled.

Upper Class A Physique is divided into upper, middle, and lower grades.

Upper Class A is undoubtedly the strongest Physique among Mortal Bodies!

He didn't expect this upgrade to be so significant?!

"Physique Transformation will take some time."

Jiang Ye sensed it, but he couldn't detect much change yet.

"Coincidentally, I'll try climbing the second level first."

At the thought of this, his consciousness suddenly sank.

In the next moment, Jiang Ye appeared in a cloud of mist.

Looking around, a towering cloud ladder stood in front of him, golden in color, grand and majestic.

"Martial Arts Heavenly Ladder." Jiang Ye walked towards the cloud ladder.

Easily stepping over ten steps, he arrived at the first level.

The Martial Arts Heavenly Ladder has ten steps on each level.

To climb to the second level, he would have to climb ten more steps.

In the past, Jiang Ye had always trained in the illusion of the first level.

But today, he went directly towards the steps above.

"Buzz!"

A huge pressure came.

The pressure that once overwhelmed Jiang Ye was now as easy as walking on flat ground for him.

Jiang Ye continued to climb, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed nine steps.

When he reached the tenth step, a terrifying pressure suddenly struck, and the gravity seemed to increase tenfold in an instant.

"Is that all?"

Jiang Ye's muscles tightened, and he straightened his back under the terrifying pressure.

His perfectly cultivated body, like a fighting machine, began to operate, bursting out with an indestructible force, allowing him to take the next step under tremendous pressure.

"Boom!"

Instantly, the pressure vanished.

And Jiang Ye also arrived at the second-level platform of the Martial Arts Heavenly Ladder.

[You have reached the second level of the Martial Arts Heavenly Ladder]
[Do you want to start the second level assessment immediately?]

A Panel appeared.

Jiang Ye wasn't surprised.

The first level was an illusion assessment.

What kind of assessment would this second level be?

With a hint of anticipation, Jiang Ye silently said in his heart, "Start the second level assessment!"

Buzz!

In the next moment, the environment around him suddenly darkened.

Jiang Ye's consciousness was also plunged into darkness as if he had been hit on the head with a stick.

When Jiang Ye opened his eyes again.

He found himself standing in a dark room.

Various instruments of torture were hanging on the walls, whips, candles, chains, hemp ropes, etc.

"Where is this place?"

Jiang Ye frowned slightly as he looked at the instruments of torture.

Whips and candles?

Is this some kind of perverted game?

"Is it another illusion? But this time it's some kind of special play? But I don't have that kind of hobby."

Jiang Ye looked around in confusion.

If he hadn't looked, it wouldn't have mattered, but when he did, he was suddenly shocked.

He saw that he was actually tied to a torture rack.

So, he was the passive one?!

Just then, Jiang Ye saw a bright red timer appear in front of him.

0 hours 0 minutes 0 seconds.

"Could it be that this assessment is to endure physical pain?" Jiang Ye frowned.

Although he was reluctant in his heart.

But when it came to enduring pain, he wasn't afraid at all.

Having experienced countless illusion trials on the first level, his Martial Will had become extremely firm, and mere physical pain was nothing to him.

"Buzz~!"

Just as Jiang Ye was thinking this.

Suddenly, the torture rack shook slightly, and the assessment officially began.

"F*ck!"

Instantly, Jiang Ye couldn't bear it anymore.

A burst of severe pain struck, as if someone had torn off all his skin and repeatedly rubbed it with chili water.

This pain far exceeded the previous Thunder Fire Trial!

At the same time, the bright red timer officially started counting.

But to Jiang Ye's dismay, the damned thing wasn't a countdown.

In other words, he had no idea how long he had to endure to pass the test!

If he gave up early, wouldn't that mean all the suffering he had endured so far would be for nothing?

Were they trying to pull a Japanese-style torture on him!?

"Come on."

Jiang Ye gritted his teeth, his face icy cold. "Is it just pain? Who's afraid of who?"

This time, he had to clear it in one go!

Buzz! Buzz!

The rack shook again, and Jiang Ye began to feel all kinds of unbearable, excruciating pain.

Jiang Ye gritted his teeth and endured, forcing himself to adapt to the pain.

"If I can't even endure this little bit of pain, how will I persevere during the Starry Sky Refinement in the future?"

Jiang Ye knew clearly that this test might allow him to gradually become immune to pain.

But just as he was slowly adapting...

Suddenly.

Jiang Ye saw a candle flying towards him.

Immediately afterwards, a drop of wax dripped onto his wound.

Instantly, a storm of pain swept through his mind.

That drop of 'wax' didn't know what ingredients it contained, but it seemed to have a mysterious energy that frantically poured into his body along the wound.

Jiang Ye felt every cell in his body being torn apart.

His eyes widened as he finally saw clearly that it wasn't a candle at all, but an energy pillar condensed from mysterious energy, each drop of which could make people wish they were dead!

This pain was dozens of times more intense than the previous Thunder Fire Trial!

"Persevere!"

Jiang Ye clenched his teeth, forcing himself to endure.

If he gave up here, all his previous efforts would be wasted, and he would have to start all over again in the next test!

Fortunately...

His Martial Will was extremely resilient and tenacious.

Even this intense pain didn't make him lose his mind.

And so, Jiang Ye continued to endure the excruciating pain, and time slowly passed.

He didn't know how long had passed.

Jiang Ye's consciousness almost fell into a coma in the endless pain, and he finally couldn't bear it any longer, and the string that had been taut in his heart suddenly snapped.

The next moment, the surrounding environment darkened.

The test was over.
