Lu Qingyun did not care about the trivial matter of inadvertently surpassing two Sequences.

"Eleven thousand layers of heavenly stairs are roughly the limit an initial Sovereign Lord can reach. With my Ten Billion Layer Blood Moving Secret Treasury cultivation, I can at most climb another thousand layers. But under that kind of extreme pressure, ordinary people can't cultivate at all. After all, one careless slip and they might suffer qi deviation."

"But... I'm different!"

Lu Qingyun did not linger long on this level. After a brief pause, he continued upward!

Only this time, he did not make another leap of faith, crossing hundreds or even thousands of layers in one go.

Instead, he climbed upward one layer at a time, steadily and honestly.

Yet even so, he still drew the attention of most people.

Everyone watched without blinking, wanting to see exactly where Lu Qingyun's limit lay!

Eleven thousand one hundred layers... eleven thousand two hundred layers...

As the number of layers increased, the pressure blanketing his body surged without end.

Lu Qingyun's pace grew slower and slower, yet he continued to rise steadily.

By the time he reached twelve thousand layers, Lu Qingyun was already on the verge of his limit.

The pressure, as though the entire sky had come crashing down upon him, surged like a tide and nearly left him unable to breathe!

At this point, not only could he no longer advance upward, even moving his body had become incomparably difficult!

At the sight of this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.

At the same time, they deeply engraved the number twelve thousand layers into their memories. It would become a record that perhaps no one would be able to break for all eternity!

"Phew—he finally stopped! I was watching from so far away and still got nervous enough that I nearly couldn't breathe! At such a high level of the heavenly stairs, the pressure inside must be like purgatory to us. We'd probably be crushed into a bloody mist in an instant!"

"You're getting ahead of yourself. You couldn't even withstand the remainder. Two thousand layers requires at least Nirvana cultivation, with part of your body transformed into a True God body!"

"Twelve thousand layers, and he did it in such a short time. The Thirteenth Sequence is probably not far from reaching the elders' level."

"The Thirteenth Sequence is... still going to try? Why did he sit down right there?! Judging by this, he intends to cultivate on that level!! Could it be... he's still far from his limit!?"

Suddenly, someone cried out in alarm.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Qingyun simply sat down on the spot.

He even took out a great quantity of cultivation resources, intending to cultivate while enduring the utmost limit of pressure!

This sudden turn of events caught everyone completely off guard.

Enduring extreme pressure and using suitable pressure to aid cultivation were two entirely different things!

The former was a challenge to one's limits, and one could generally only endure it for an exceptionally brief time.

The latter... was a long-term stay!

That was also why the Lu Family had built enormous cities upon these hundred thousand layers of heavenly stairs.

But to remain under extreme pressure for an extended time... that was simply impossible!

"No! The Thirteenth Sequence has truly reached his limit! Maybe he doesn't know, since this is his first time on the hundred thousand layers of heavenly stairs! This is bad, hurry! Is there any expert above the twelve-thousandth layer? Go warn the Thirteenth Sequence! Otherwise, his life may be in danger!"

The instant those words fell, a gaze descended from above the thirty-thousandth layer of heavenly stairs.

It belonged to a powerful saint of the Lu Family. Upon discovering the situation, he did not hesitate and was about to intervene.

But before he could act, Lu Qingyun seemed to sense his gaze.

He immediately opened his eyes, raised his head, met the man's gaze, and slowly shook his head in refusal.

At the sight of this, everyone's hearts rose to their throats.

Yet no one spoke to disturb him.

Since the Sequence himself understood his own situation, there was no need for them to interfere.

They could only hold their breath and keep their eyes fixed on Lu Qingyun at all times.

They discovered that Lu Qingyun truly seemed to be cultivating. The speed at which he breathed in and out spiritual essence was terrifyingly astonishing!

Yet this did nothing to ease the extreme pressure from the twelve-thousandth layer.

One incense stick... two incense sticks...

Gradually, Lu Qingyun continued to maintain that near-eerie state!

Monster!

The same word surfaced in everyone's minds at once.

Only at this moment did they finally understand just how terrifying the gap between themselves and a monster truly was!

He could still cultivate under such circumstances—what the hell was there left to compete over!

They might as well jump off!

Seeing that Lu Qingyun truly did not need help, the Lu Family saint withdrew his gaze and continued cultivating.

Within Lu Qingyun's mind, the system's notification sounded from time to time.

[Fortune Points +1, Fortune Points +2...]

Lu Qingyun was delighted to discover that through this method, the Fortune Points he could obtain in a single day had already reached a staggering three hundred!

It was just... a little painful!

Being kept at his limit every moment made him feel awful all over.

Fortunately, he did not need to cultivate actively. He only had to keep drawing energy into his body.

After doing it for so many years, it had long since become instinct.

"The acquisition efficiency has already been pushed as high as possible. Now... all I need is time."

Lu Qingyun's eyes were profound, as though they held an endless starry sky.

At least three hundred Fortune Points a day—nine thousand a month, and over a hundred thousand a year!

Moreover, as his realm continued to rise and his physique kept growing stronger, the speed at which he gained Fortune Points would increase along with it!

His strength was about to enter its most terrifying period of explosive growth!!

If you can't find it by searching the book title, try searching for the author instead. Maybe it was simply renamed!
