This golden hammer is really useful; it shattered the opponent's Spirit Artifact in just a few blows.

Su Mu put down the golden hammer, feeling as if all his strength had been drained away. Using this thing was far too strenuous for him.

If the opponent had held on a little longer, Su Mu would have been exhausted and forced to retreat.

Fortunately, the other party was scared away, and Su Mu put away the Golden Hammer and sat down to rest.

At this moment, Mo Li and Ruan Wenyou above had already reached the forty-ninth step.

But the two of them seemed to be hesitating about something.

Which path do you think they will choose?

Just as Su Mu was sitting and resting, looking at the two of them with some curiosity, the cultivators below all looked up at the two above.

"The Holy Maiden will probably choose the path of seeking the Dao."

One of them thought for a moment, then said something.

"It's unclear whether Mo Li of the Mysterious Yin Cult will continue on this path or choose another."

The cultivators below were whispering among themselves, and Su Mu only vaguely understood what they were hearing.

Judging from what they're saying, are there other trials along the way?

What is the method for asking the question?

What are the options for the other routes?

Just as Su Mu was wondering what was going on, Ruan Wenyou stepped directly onto the stairs behind her.

However, a transparent chessboard then materialized in front of Ruan Wenyou.

"Huh, playing chess?"

Su Mu was stunned for a moment when he saw this, then his heart leaped with joy.

I know how to play chess!

Su Mu glanced back at the other cultivators below. Because of the fact that Su Mu had just killed two cultivators, the cultivators below all looked away when they met Su Mu's gaze.

Seeing this, Su Mu felt that no one should be bothering him for a while.

Thinking of this, Su Mu quickly logged off and asked Zhou Jianhua to arrange for a computer to be provided for him at the villa, and also to help him get Alpha online.

Su Mu was very familiar with cheating.

After learning of Su Mu's request, Zhou Jianhua immediately arranged for someone to bring Su Mu a computer. Setting up a network would be too slow; a wireless network would suffice.

After contacting Zhou Jianhua, Su Mu wasn't in a hurry.

He had just exerted too much effort; he needed to rest before continuing to climb.

While Su Mu was resting, many cultivators carefully walked past him and then quickly climbed up.

However, some Devil Cultivator treated Su Mu with great respect as they passed by, addressing him respectfully as "Holy Son" before continuing their ascent.

The higher you go, the greater the pressure you face.

Those climbing upwards slowed their pace considerably.

However, Su Mu glanced around and realized that there were already several hundred cultivators who had easily reached the forty-ninth step.

Judging from their appearance, they are all cultivators who have achieved success in body refinement.

I had long heard that many talented cultivators had come here, and now that I see it, it is indeed true.

The remaining cultivators who had not yet reached the forty-ninth level had all climbed quite a bit higher, and Su Mu could see various spiritual lights flashing on their bodies as they climbed the stairs.

It looks like some kind of body-refining technique.

To Su Mu's surprise, there were actually some Demon Cultivator among them.

Compared to humans, these Demon Cultivator had a significant advantage on the Immortal Ascension Steps. One Demon Cultivator, who resembled a bear, strode up the Immortal Ascension Steps as if he encountered no resistance whatsoever.

After resting for a while, Su Mu felt that his strength had recovered considerably, and began to walk upwards.

The higher Su Mu went, the more she could feel the overwhelming pressure.

Fortunately, Su Mu's physical body was strong enough that going up didn't put too much pressure on Su Mu.

This pleased Su Mu somewhat, as the physical body tempering within the Glazed Tower of Ten Thousand Fires was incredibly powerful.

He could sense it before; when those Spirit Artifact struck him, they didn't leave any marks.

As they climb step by step, the pressure will lessen considerably when the red light emanates from Su Mu.

After carefully sensing it, Su Mu realized that the red light seemed to be the spiritual flame that had previously tempered his body, now hidden within it.

When it appears, it can instantly double the strength of his physical body.

When Su Mu reached the forty-nine steps, there were already countless cultivators ahead of him.

"I didn't expect the Saintess's chess skills to be so formidable; she's already won ten games."

"Yes, I heard that the most powerful cultivator in the past who Immortal Ascension Steps only won twenty-eight rounds. I wonder if the Holy Maiden can surpass that."

"That Lu Ziming is extremely impressive; he's already progressed thirteen steps while asking for directions."

"The path to enlightenment is the most difficult, yet this young man has ascended thirteen steps in such a short time; he is truly extraordinary."

Su Mu listened to the discussions around him and looked towards the cultivator in front of him.

Ruan Wenyou was constantly playing chess, but his opponent was invisible to him, and he had no idea who he was playing against.

Lu Ziming would take a step forward, his face occasionally showing a look of confusion, and sometimes a sudden realization.

There were also Demon Cultivator in the middle who simply used brute force to break through the stone steps.

Judging from the current situation, there are now three ways to get up the mountain.

He still forced his way in with his bare hands, and then it was time to ask questions and play chess.

I don't know what kind of method this is, but I'd like to try it out. However Su Mu, after thinking about it, I'll focus on playing chess first.

Alpha hasn't been launched yet, so Su Mu needs to wait.

With that thought in mind, Su Mu sat cross-legged to the side and watched the surrounding cultivators step forward one by one to continue ascending the steps.

At this moment, Ruan Wenyou's lips curled slightly as she placed the chess pieces one by one in her delicate hand.

After successfully killing the central white stones, the black stones connected, and the white stones were powerless to turn the tide.

The chessboard in front of her collapsed, and her body seemed to be lifted up by something, taking a step forward.

This time, she should be able to break the record, and if she can reach the top, she will surely reap considerable benefits.

None of the treasures on these Immortal Ascension Steps are ordinary; if they contain any Secret Method, that would be even better.

Thinking of this, Ruan Wenyou couldn't help but look around, wanting to see where the other cultivators had gone.

Upon seeing this, Ruan Wenyou raised a slight brow.

Lu Ziming asked, "How come you've been climbing higher than me all this way?" This was somewhat unexpected for her.

This young man is quite extraordinary; a hint of appreciation flashed in Ruan Wenyou eyes.

There were also quite a few Demon Cultivator among them, who were not slow at all in climbing the stone steps, and a few of Demon Cultivator were even on par with her in terms of ascent speed.

Behind her, there were many other cultivators walking the same path, playing chess.

Surprisingly, quite a few of the cultivators who came to Immortal Ascension Steps this time have made pretty good calculations.

This surprised Ruan Wenyou somewhat, especially Lu Ziming. If Lu Ziming could have gone further on the path of seeking the Dao, his cultivation would have been much smoother.

Thinking of this, Ruan Wenyou couldn't help but look around again.

She wanted to see where Han Feiyu was.
