Chapter 1873: Gambling

A huge mental force came over, and Xia Ruofei suddenly felt his head buzzing. Fortunately, he was mentally prepared, so he was only slightly stunned, and soon resisted with his own powerful mental power.

At the same time, a powerful squeezing force and the invisible force that stirs vitality also come at the same time.

The 200th step is indeed another hurdle. Whether it is mental pressure or external squeeze, it is obviously much stronger than the 199th step, and the increase is far greater than the previous steps.

Xia Ruofei felt that the external squeezing force should have exceeded a hundred times its own weight.

is equivalent to him being under pressure of 10,000 to 20,000 catties anytime and anywhere, and he is attacking from all directions at the same time, and there is no place above and below the whole body to escape.

The threat of that invisible force was even greater. The moment Xia Ruofei stepped on the 200th floor, the vitality in his body was like boiling, shaking violently.

Fortunately, Xia Ruofei was already prepared, and the "Great Dao Jue" exercise started immediately. After almost two weeks, the vitality began to calm down.

The external squeezing force, with his vitality all over his body, although it is already a little uncomfortable, it is not impossible to persist.

In this way, Xia Ruofei quickly stood firmly on the 200th floor.

……

In the secret space filled with purple air, although the real Shanhe looked relaxed, he actually clenched his fists secretly.

When he saw Xia Ruofei standing firmly on the 200-story steps, he couldn't help but screamed hello in his heart, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eyes.

"Congratulations! Brother Shanhe Dao!" Dao Master Qingxuan was also relieved, "You have accepted a good disciple!"

"Thank you Qingxuan Dao brother!" Shanhe said with his hands, "Speaking of which, I haven't taught him for a day, and my teacher is not worthy of the name!"

"Brother Shanhe Dao is too modest!" Qingxuan Daochang said with a smile, "No one in the world knows such treasures as Shanhe Lingtu, who does not know? You even left him with such treasures, as well as those cultivation resources, including some Precious inheritance, except for not teaching yourself, you are more competent than most masters!"

Madam Shanhe smiled and said: "Why don't I actually want to teach my disciples? However, the situation has collapsed so far... But this child really hasn't disappointed me. Whether it is talent or perseverance, he is the best choice! If there is any If I get the chance, I will bring him by my side and teach him for a while!"

Qingxuan Daoist was silent for a moment, and said, "There must be a chance! This child is indeed gifted, I believe your master and apprentice will meet soon!"

"Let's borrow the auspicious words of Qingxuan Dao brother!" Shanhe real smile said.

Qingxuan Dao Master laughed and said: "Brother Shanhe Dao, now your disciples have successfully bought this threshold! You should relax a little too? Why don't we make a bet?"

"Bet?" Shanhe Zhen asked curiously, "What does Qingxuan Dao brother want to bet on?"

"Just bet on which step this child can get to!" Qingxuan said with a smile, "I have been greedy for the green gourd of Brother Shanhe Dao for a long time...How about? Dare to bet on it? bet?"

Hearing this, the real man Shanhe couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said, "Brother Qingxuan Dao has a big appetite! He actually stared at my Biqing Gourd..."

"Naturally, I will also put an equivalent bet!" Qingxuan Daochang said with a smile, "My treasures at the bottom of the box, Brother Shanhe Dao is Men Erqing, don't hesitate to mention what you like! As long as you can win the bet , You can take it away!"

Mortal Mountain River pondered for a moment and said: "If I remember correctly, Brother Qingxuan should have a bottle of Ningying Pill on hand..."

Master Qingxuan couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, and then he reacted. He smiled and said, "It seems that Brother Shanhe Dao is really caring for you, this disciple! He has just broken through to the middle of the golden core! You! It has already begun to prepare for him to gather the Nascent Soul!"

Shanhe Zhenren smiled and said: "This child is practicing "The Great Dao Jue". The quality of the golden core is much better than that of ordinary monks, and the potential for development is also great. However, the drawback is that the bottleneck is extremely difficult to break through when the soul is gathered, and A little carelessness will lead to life concerns. If there is a bottle of Ningying Pill, it will be much safer, and the success rate of cohesive Yuanying will be greatly improved."

Qingxuan Dao hesitated for a while, and said readily, "No problem! Brother Shanhe Dao spoke up. This bottle of Ning Ying Pill, regardless of whether Brother Shanhe Dao won the gambling battle or not, I will give it all! Just treat it as me. It's a meeting gift for this little baby!"

Shanhe Zhenren heard the words and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It doesn’t have to be this way. We gamble normally. If Brother Qingxuan wins, I will naturally offer Biqing Gourd with both hands; and if I win by luck, Brother Dao only needs to give me a bottle of Ningying. Dan is fine!"

Qingxuan Daochang smiled and shook his head, and said, "The value of the bet is not equal, I can't take advantage of it! Just do what I said! If the brother Shanhe Dao wins, the Ningying Pill will be Xia Ruofei's; and if the poor Dao is lucky I won...Brother Dao’s Biqing Gourd is given to me. I will treat this Ningying Pill as a meeting gift for my nephew and give it to the little baby!"

The real man Shanhe declined, but he could only say: "Then thank you Qingxuan Dao brother."

"Haha!" said Daoist Qing Xuan, "Then let's take a gamble! Let me first guess...I think this doll should be able to reach the four hundred and fifty floor!"

The real man Shanhe raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "It seems that Brother Qingxuan is very confident in me as a disciple! The 450th floor is close to the best record of the ladder!"

Qingxuan Dao leader is the guardian of the trial tower. Naturally, these records are the clearest. He smiled and said: "The record of the ladder is 478 floors!"

If Xia Ruofei were here, she would be very surprised that the best record for co-authoring was the 478th floor? That is to say, until today, no one has been able to complete the ladder completely! In other words, no one has ever reached the top of this trial tower!

Xia Ruofei had already seen that the trial tower should be used to select talents, so he thought that in the long years, many people should be able to reach the top.

I don’t know that this trial tower is for screening talents, but as long as you can cross the two hundred steps in this obsidian ladder, you will pass the level.

It’s not very accurate to say that, because the two hundred steps are a big watershed, and people who can pass this checkpoint are rare.

Even Ling Qingxue, whose mental power has far surpassed Zhen Qi cultivation base because of chance, was eliminated after reaching the 170th floor.

So, two hundred levels are actually very difficult.

It’s just that Xia Ruofei seems to be more relaxed all the way, plus he is practicing "The Great Dao Jue", he also showed a lot of valuable qualities before, so comprehensive consideration, Qingxuan Daochang is still more optimistic about Xia Ruofei, this will guess. Four hundred and fifty layers.

Shanhe Zhenren groaned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Even Brother Qingxuan is so optimistic about this child, I, as a master, can't look down on him! I'll guess at the 480th floor! No matter what he can. I can’t do it, but as a master, I still hope that he can break this dusty hundred-year record!"

Dao Master Qingxuan gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Brother Shanhe Dao is bolder! I don't dare to think that anyone can break the ladder record... Brother Shanhe Dao, let's just say it! Let's see in the end! Whoever guesses the answer is closer to the real result, whoever wins, how?"

"Very good, that's it!" Shanhe Zhen nodded and said.

……

Xia Ruofei didn't know that he was still able to open a gambling game after breaking through a level. He rested for a while at the 200 steps, feeling that there was nothing wrong with his state, and he was ready to continue upward.

Although the coercion was already terrifying, Xia Ruofei still had plenty of energy at this time, so he felt that the current coercion was far from reaching his limit.

In fact, as long as you stand on the ladder, you will be under the tremendous pressure all the time. Therefore, in theory, it is best to pass quickly, so as to minimize the time spent on the ladder. But because of the existence of the invisible force that stirs the vitality, the cultivator can't quickly rush forward on the ladder with a strong physical body, and can only take a step and stop, and do his best to maintain the stability of the vitality.

This is a test of the rhythm of the monks when they pass through the barriers.

Xia Ruofei has a better control of the rhythm. Except for the dozens of steps in front, he basically plays steadily and doesn't take any risk. At the same time, he doesn't take excessive rest. Basically, as long as his physical condition is roughly OK, he will He immediately climbed up and down the steps, which objectively reduced his stay on the steps.

Although the coercion suddenly increased from the 199th level to the 200th level, Xia Ruofei was also mentally prepared, and he was within his abilities, so he didn’t delay too long on this level. Has stabilized the body's vitality.

He raised his head and glanced at the top of the steps that were still far away, took a deep breath, and stepped onto the 201st step.

The coercion naturally increases, but the increase is obviously not as great as when it reached the 200th floor just now. In addition, Xia Ruofei has adapted to this level of coercion at this time, and his body just shook slightly, and soon It stabilized.

However, the vibrations in his body's vitality were still very severe, so he stood on the steps and ran "The Great Dao Jue" for two weeks to stabilize the vitality completely before moving forward.

Two hundred tenth, two hundred and twenty, two hundred and thirty...

Xia Ruofei has always maintained a relatively stable rhythm and rhythm, climbing up level by level.

The pressure of this obsidian ladder has been increasing, but one good thing is that because there are more than five hundred steps, unless it is ten or fifty, especially when it is a hundred, the increase will be slightly larger. , The increase of other steps is relatively small, so the passer can have a process of adaptation.

Of course, if the strength is not enough, even if this increase is small, the accumulation will be very terrifying, and the fate of being eliminated will not be avoided in the end.

It is like boiling a frog in warm water. Although the water temperature is slowly rising, it will boil eventually.

For Xia Ruofei, the two hundred layers are far from reaching the limit, so by climbing layer by layer, his body is constantly adapting to increasing pressure, so he can still maintain this relatively stable rhythm. , I feel very relieved to look at it.

At this time, in the secret space filled with purple air, Dao Chang Qingxuan and the real person Shanhe looked at the screen of Xia Ruofei's entry displayed on the bronze mirror magic weapon, and couldn't help but nod frequently.

Qingxuan Taoist master smiled and said: "It seems that the poor road did not look away. If nothing happens, this little baby should be able to reach more than four hundred floors!"

Shanhe Zhenren said: "I still think he should be able to break the record! By the way, the monk who rushed to the 478 steps and broke the ladder record two hundred years ago is called Xuanjizi, right?"

Qingxuan Daochang smiled and nodded and said: "That's right! When he broke the ladder, he was still cultivated in the late Jindan stage."

"If I remember correctly, this mysterious machine should come from Xuanming Dongtian!" Shanhe said, "The cultivation environment and resources of this son are thousands of times better than my disciple from the Shenzhou cultivation world... Brother Qingxuan, what is this mysterious machine now?"

"Xuan Jizi has been cultivated in the late stage of the Yuanshen, and five years ago, he began to retreat from the dead, and has not yet exited! It must have reached the critical moment to break through the orifice period!" Qingxuan Daochang said with a smile, "If If things go well, Brother Shanhe Dao should see this genius from the mysterious cave in the front in the near future! By then, my human monk will add another powerful combat power!"

Major Shanhe nodded slowly and said, "This cultivation speed is pretty good..."

"Haha! Xuan Jizi passed the test tower with the best record in history, and the training resources he got are unimaginable for ordinary cultivators!" said Dao Chang Qing Xuan, "Of course, he didn't disappoint, if he could. Breaking through to the out-of-aperture period in three hundred years, even in the long history, it is a very dazzling achievement!"

Shanhe Zhenren looked at Xia Ruofei, who was steadily rising in the bronze mirror magic weapon, and said, "I believe that my disciple will not be worse than Xuanji, but...I don't know if there is so much time left for him to grow up... "

Qingxuan Dao sighed for a long time, and said, "Brother Shanhe Dao, everything is fixed! You disciple I don't seem to be a blessed person. No matter what the situation in the future is, I believe he should be able to turn bad luck! "

"Haha! Brother Qingxuan Dao's face-to-face technique has always been accurate, then I will lend you good words!" Shanhe said with a smile.

Qingxuan Daochang and Shanhe Zhenren were chatting while paying attention to Xia Ruofei's progress. On the eighth floor of the trial tower, Xia Ruofei had begun to climb from the 300th to the 400th floor with a relatively stable rhythm.
