Lin Heng put away the two giant wolf puppets and returned to the stone steps where his mother and Duanmu Yunshang were.
After resting for a while, we continued climbing!
"That Double Pupils female Great Saint is in pain!"
Duanmu Yunshang said with a smile, "She could have reached the top of the mountain much faster, but we blocked her way, forcing her to wait for us to get there first!"
"It's because she was late!"
Liu Ling'er covered her mouth and smiled, "Serves her right for insisting on being our enemy!"
Lin Heng and the other two were in a very good mood!
The remaining journey was filled with many Saint Realm talents from various races of the God Realm!
They arrived long ago, but could only climb with difficulty; most of the outstanding individuals even struggled to stand up!
Since Heavenly Pillar Peak is the most obvious place in the Heavenly Gate World where one can obtain great opportunities, almost all the heroes from various races who come from the God Realm, as long as they have the cultivation of the Saint Realm, will come to give it a try!
This is the main reason why so many outstanding figures from the God Realm gather here!
Since they are all outstanding individuals, they are naturally very confident and believe they can easily reach the top, but that is not the case!
The pressure from the restrictive array on this stone staircase of Heavenly Pillar Peak will gradually increase at a very slow rate!
It grows stronger year by year, and over tens of millions of years, the pressure from the forbidden array will inevitably increase significantly!
Previously, those at the mid-to-high level of the Saint Realm could easily reach the summit, but now only those at the Great Saint Realm are required!
Unless you have an exceptionally strong physique!
Liu Ling'er and Duanmu Yunshang were climbing very slowly, and Lin Heng could only accompany them but could not help them!
If Lin Heng could use external forces, he could have had the two giant wolf puppets carry them up the mountain, but unfortunately that was not an option!
The forbidden formation on the stone steps is very peculiar. Any cultivator who tries to cheat their way to the top of the mountain will not be able to obtain any opportunities. In fact, if they try to obtain any opportunities, they will be directly blasted off the mountain!
We can only climb slowly!
Especially the last tenth or so of the stone steps, Liu Ling'er and Duanmu Yunshang had to rest for at least five or six days after climbing each step!
The higher you go, the longer the rest periods become!
The winding stone steps are spiral-shaped, and at some bends, you can see the monks above or below!
Lin Heng saw Lin Qiu and the Double Pupils female Great Saint!
He could also foresee that these two outstanding figures from the Saint Alliance would not let this go easily!
Along the way, they naturally wouldn't encounter any other Great Saint. Even if other Great Saint had come, they would have already reached the mountaintop long ago!
The Saint Realm poses no threat to Lin Heng and his companions!
We'll just keep going, stopping and starting!
Time passed day by day, month by month!
It took Lin Heng and his two companions five years to reach the summit of Heavenly Pillar Peak, and a full seven years after arriving in Heavenly Gate World!
By now, Lin Heng is already twenty years old!
At the summit of Heavenly Pillar Peak, there is also a magnificent stone palace!
The main gate of the stone hall is a barrier of light, and as the Heavenly Gate guides say, only one cultivator can pass through the barrier at a time to enter the stone hall and try to obtain an opportunity!
"Miss Yunshang, please go inside first!"
After resting for a while, Liu Ling'er sat on the floor outside the stone hall and waved her hand.
"Good!"
Duanmu Yunshang didn't stand on ceremony and successfully passed through the forbidden array light gate!
Who enters first or last has no impact on the opportunities they can obtain, because each cultivator can only receive a different number of opportunities!
" Heng'er, these past five years of trials and tribulations have actually taught me a great deal!"
Liu Ling'er smiled at Lin Heng and said, "I feel that my physique and the quality of my internal energy have both improved, and my willpower has also increased significantly. It's good to suffer a little! I guess Miss Yunshang should feel the same way!"
"Um!"
Lin Heng nodded.
Because his journey was relatively easy, he hardly felt any improvement in himself!
During these five years, he studied the Law of Space while holding the Heart of Space, and also secretly studied techniques and skills such as the Saint Puppet Technique and Illusory Void in a Single Thought!
If Lin Heng were to return to the God Realm today, he would immediately advance to the Saint Realm!
Inside the Qiankun Ring, Yue Linglong was still enveloped by the Illusory Heart Grass, and the Evil Emperor was still unconscious!
From his vantage point, Lin Heng could see Lin Qiu and the Double Pupils female Great Saint in the distance!
The two men had clearly slowed their climb on purpose; they were only about twenty stone steps away from the summit!
Lin Heng knew that if he didn't leave, the two of them wouldn't dare to come up!
After waiting for a month, Duanmu Yunshang passed through the barrier of light and emerged from the stone hall!
Lin Heng and Liu Ling'er's eyes lit up!
"Miss Yunshang, have you received a great opportunity?"
"Aunt Liu, I got it! Otherwise, why would it have taken so long to come out!"
Duanmu Yunshang replied happily, "Hurry up and go in. Once you've also obtained your opportunity, we can talk in detail later!"
"Good!"
Liu Ling'er entered the stone hall full of anticipation!
Lin Heng didn't press the matter further, but instead sat down again!
The pressure here is too intense; even he gets tired after standing for a long time!
Duanmu Yunshang has changed the most in the past few years!
Previously, she was only a little over thirteen years old, just like Lin Heng. Even though she appeared to be sixteen or seventeen due to her high cultivation level, she still retained a touch of childishness!
Now it's different; she's twenty years old and has completely lost her childishness!
She was not only pure and beautiful, but also exuded extraordinary vitality. She was tall and slender, with a strong sense of heroism between her brows, and her beautiful eyes always shone with a captivating light!
As expected of the Heaven-Burning Saint Physique, which was advanced from the Heaven-Burning Battle Physique, even though he deliberately concealed his aura, he still gave people the feeling that he always maintained a high fighting spirit!
"You keep staring at it, is it pretty?"
Duanmu Yunshang walked slowly to Lin Heng's side and casually sat down on the ground!
"It's quite beautiful!"
Lin Heng spoke the truth.
Want to know what great opportunity I received in the stone hall?
Duanmu Yunshang asked again.
Of course I want to! Everyone has curiosity!
Lin Heng curled his lip, "If you want to say it, just say it already, don't keep me in suspense!"
"Perhaps it's because I possess the Great Yang Magnetic Force that I obtained the Solar Saint Body within it, along with the complete inheritance of the Solar Law!"
Duanmu Yunshang said, "With the Heaven-Burning Saint Physique, the Solar Saint Body, and that Nirvana Heavenly Fire, as long as I return to the God Realm and advance to the Saint Realm, I shouldn't be a burden to you anymore!"
"Yes, that's good!"
Lin Heng nodded.
If we put him aside, Duanmu Yunshang's physique is indeed very impressive now, even slightly better than that of Innate Dao Embryo, and almost comparable to that Innate Dao Embryo with Double Pupils!
However, compared to him, Duanmu Yunshang's physique appears to be relatively weak!
Even if one withstands the attack of Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, one will only suffer minor superficial injuries. The term "abnormal" is not even enough to describe this physique!
Another month passed, and Liu Ling'er finally emerged from the stone hall!
After using up so much time, she naturally obtained a great opportunity!
" Heng'er, your mother has obtained the complete inheritance of the Star Saint Body and the Law of Stars!"
Congratulations, Aunt Liu!
Duanmu Yunshang offers her heartfelt congratulations!
