Chapter 1934 - 221: Taking the Final Step, Floor 300! (Part 2)

Two hundred and seventy steps.

As his foot fell on this step, his figure slightly swayed.

But that was all.

He continued upward.

Two hundred and eighty steps.

His breathing began to become uneven.

Two hundred and eighty-five steps.

Every step he took, he had to pause for a moment.

This pause was not a struggle to move forward, but rather an adjustment of his own rhythm.

Two hundred and ninety steps.

His pace began to slow somewhat.

Each step required a longer adjustment of breathing and rhythm.

Two hundred and ninety-five steps.

Rumble——

As his foot fell, it seemed as if a thousand thunders roared above his head, and a terrifying spiritual pressure descended from above.

His figure swayed slightly, but his eyes became more determined.

A few breaths later.

He lifted his leg once more and stepped forward.

Rumble——

Rumble——

With each step, the pressure intensified, as if mountains and seas were overturning, as if standing on the peak of a mountain cliff.

His fists involuntarily clenched.

Reaching this step, he still felt waves of pressure.

"The two hundred and ninety-ninth step!!"

Standing on the last step, he exhaled a long breath.

Looking at the waterfall of clouds before him, he felt somewhat excited inside.

After step-by-step climbing and long-term preparation, he reached this point.

And he could feel that this was not his limit.

Though the pressure was immense, it was not enough to cause the same overwhelming sensation as before, where his heart and spirit roared, shaking, on the brink of losing consciousness.

At this moment, his consciousness was incredibly clear.

The gaze in his eyes also became exceedingly firm.

Standing here, he was like a green pine growing on a cliff, standing tall and upright.

Then, he took a deep breath.

This step, he had waited for a long time.

From the previous Heavenly Ladder, unable to stand firm on the three hundredth step, after more than ten days, having mastered the eleventh Break Limit of the Spirit Platform Cave Illumination True Self Method, his mental intensity grew once more.

These accumulations, these sediments, were what allowed him to reach this step, to step out this step.

Rumble——

He took a step forward, passing through the third cloud waterfall, landing solidly on the three hundredth step.

At this moment.

The heaven and earth roared!

His heart and spirit were utterly shaken.

This vibration was not the dull sound hovering above, but an internal and external simultaneous roar, erupting from the deepest part of his Primordial Spirit, like a ringing great bell.

At this moment, he felt as if he had been cast into endless chaos.

All around was nothingness, with no boundaries, and no sense of up, down, left, or right.

The feeling from last time resurfaced once again.

But unlike last time, he could feel the existence of his own body.

His figure did not waver.

His feet, rooted firmly in this place, stood steadily on the three hundredth step.

His stance, erect like a pine, like a mountain.

In an instant, he felt the descent of the Inner Realm’s will.

The descent of that will was no longer a brief touch as before, but directly falling, like a tidal wave rushing toward him, engulfing him, covering him.

Then, his heart spirit returned.

His heart was filled with mystery.

Then, a chorus of voices sounded in his ears, a myriad of chaotic voices.

"I... Mountain Observation Roar..."

"I... Nine Netherworld Ghost, today I become..."

"I... Shen Cang, today achieved the Heavenly Immortal Realm, with life lasting as long as the heavens..."

"I... Tang San, today achieved the Heavenly Immortal Realm, with life lasting as long as the heavens, attaining Perfection!"

"I... Guan Qi, today achieved the Heavenly Immortal Realm, with life lasting as long as the heavens, attaining Perfection."

A chorus of voices, male and female, some passionate, some steady, interwove in his ears, flowing into his mind.

These voices were initially vague, sounding distant, but gradually became clearer, carrying emotions of contained ardor and steadfast Dao hearts.

After a long time.

All the voices faded into silence around him.

Yet Jiang Ning was mulling over those names and titles in his mind.

He already understood that reaching the three hundred steps, standing firm on the three hundred steps, what he heard were the lingering echoes left by the ancestors of the Shangyang Immortal Sect.

These were voices from countless ages past.

But just now, among the vast multitude of voices, he roughly counted, and there were already more than hundreds.

This also proves that in the past, the Shangyang Immortal Sect, from ancient times to the present, had more than hundreds of Heavenly Immortals.

Hundreds of Heavenly Immortals!

His heart was filled with indescribable shock.

The more he learned, the more he understood what a vast foundation this was, and what a glorious past it represented.

A sect that, from ancient times to the present, had produced hundreds of Heavenly Immortals, was simply unimaginable to him.

But now, having come to this point, those Heavenly Immortals who claimed to live as long as heaven have disappeared into the endless years.

What remains for the Shangyang Inner Scenery now is only brokenness and desolation.

"Hundreds of Heavenly Immortals, I wonder how many True Immortals there were?" he murmured in his heart, raising his head to look at the Heavenly Ladder in front.

The White Jade steps stretched upwards layer by layer, disappearing into the boundless surging clouds and mist.

Afterwards, his eyes narrowed slightly.

His heart was filled with excitement.

"I, Jiang Ning, will achieve the Heavenly Immortal Realm today, live as long as heaven, and attain Perfection!"

Although he had not truly reached this point, he unhesitatingly preempted his future realm.

As his voice fell, clear and impassioned, it instantly caused the surrounding clouds and mist to surge together.

At this moment.

The will that had just descended seemed to be stimulated, and once again moved, falling into his Heart Spirit.

"Ascend three hundred levels, and a golden lotus will be bestowed."

As the voice fell, the world roared.

Following this, he saw the void above his head, with streaks of glowing colors, golden lotuses blooming.

One by one, golden illusions condensed from the void, each blossom dispersing gentle ripples as they opened.

The surrounding clouds and mist immediately surged violently.

As the golden lotus phantom bloomed and lights intertwined, a golden lotus slowly took form, changing from a virtual shape to solid.

The lotus was entirely golden, its petals layered, with intricate runes engraved upon them.

With the appearance of the lotus, a strange fragrance filled the air, the scent directly reaching the deepest parts of the Primordial Spirit.

"Is this the reward for ascending the three hundred levels in the Shangyang Inner Scenery?" Jiang Ning looked up, with the golden lotus reflected in his eyes.

The next moment.

He saw the golden lotus slightly sway.

In an instant.

Countless golden dust fell, landing on his Primordial Spirit, covering his spiritual body.

Then, he saw an Immortal Tree.

An Immortal Tree approximately three zhang in height.

The Immortal Tree had leaves of various colors hanging from it, radiant and glowing, with shimmering clouds enveloping it.

At this moment.

Numerous golden dust suddenly appeared, drifting down like a gentle spring rain.

The dust fell on the leaves, on the branches, on the trunk, and on the void below.

Suddenly.

[Sun Scripture Experience Value +17]

[Taiyin True Scripture Experience Value +18]

[Spirit Platform Cave Illumination True Self Method Experience Value +397]

[Taixu Yin Yang Sword Experience Value +87]

[...]

One by one, the experience values of the cultivation techniques began to increase.

The prompt bar in front of his eyes flashed by like a waterfall.

Layer upon layer, the experience value growth prompts appeared repeatedly.

At this moment, the Immortal Tree also began to grow, to elevate, to reach upwards.

"These golden dust actually have such an effect!!" His heart shook as he suddenly understood.

Then, he quietly watched this scene, watching the branches and leaves sway and move under the nourishment of the golden dust.

Watching the different colored leaves shimmer with a divine glow, surrounded by misty light.

Watching the Immortal Tree continuously grow, continuously ascend.

A moment later.

The falling golden dust disappeared, and the intense changes ceased accordingly.

The growth of the Immortal Tree stopped at a height of four zhang and five.

The height increased by a full five-tenths.

Correspondingly, the leaves hanging on the branch tips became broader, and the veins became thicker.

And displayed correspondingly were the changes in the Skill section of the panel.

[Skill]: Sun Scripture (Master 51.34%→58.71%)

Taiyin True Scripture (Master 15.9→22.3%)

Five Animals Fist (First Break 1.2%→53.2%) (Trait: Grandmaster (Light Gold))

Vajra Immortal Body (Nine times limit-breaking 0.02%→31.21%) (Trait: Dragon Elephant Power (Deep Gold).....)

...

Looking at the changes in the Skill section on the panel, he was secretly amazed.

Each cultivation technique had almost noticeable progress.

The smallest change was only in these two Supreme Techniques: the Sun Scripture and the Taiyin True Scripture, which pointed directly to the True Immortal Realm.

For the other slightly lower tier cultivation techniques, the growth was even more evident.
