An hour passed.
It was Shen Ping’s turn. He looked at the stone steps that had shattered and condensed from the stone pillars, his eyes flickering with anticipation. On the first level of the underground palace, he had relied on the stone steps to reach the Perfected Golden Core realm in one go. He had saved more than a hundred years of bitter cultivation and his physique had also transformed to the Large Success Vajra Body. Such an opportunity without any side effects was very rare outside.
Phew.
Ha.
He took a deep breath
He began to divine. The seven colors of each step represented different things. The orange color of the first step was auspicious. He took a step.
Boom. Abundant strange beast energy instantly surged into his body from the bottom of his feet. The power of the strange beast in his dantian soared at a visible speed. It only slowly dissipated when his Nascent Soul became stronger. “Mid-stage Nascent Soul!” In just a few dozen breaths, Shen Ping had advanced to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. It had to be known that it was very difficult for Beast Spirit geniuses to advance. After all, there were not as many strange stones as spirit stones, spirit crystals, medicinal pills, and natural treasures. They were relatively rare in the underground palace. He could only accumulate one to two hundred strange stones after searching for more than ten years, and this strange stone did not increase the level of Beast Spirit geniuses at the Nascent Soul realm very much.
But now, a single step saved him hundreds of years of effort. How could the opportunities here not make people crazy? Therefore, even if the Beast Spirit geniuses of the various races knew that the death rate in the Heaven Ascension Hall was extremely high, they would still enter without hesitation.
He kept going.
The second step.
The third.
He had the divination technique. He was not in any danger even when he reached the top. His cultivation realm had also increased from the early-stage to the Perfected Nascent Soul realm. His physique, divine sense, and soul power increased even more.
In particular, his physique had officially transformed from the Large Success Vajra Body to the Beginner Divine Demon Body. With his divine sense, he could clearly see that his bones had undergone a huge change. The original golden color had disappeared and returned to the original white bones, but there were mysterious patterns on the surface of his bones.
“As expected of the Stairway to Heaven! As long as I get out alive this time, I can break through to the Divine Transformation Realm!” Shen Ping could not hide the joy on his face.
Divine Transformation. It was a realm that was once unattainable. And yet, he was about to reach this level with less than a hundred years of cultivation.
At this moment, a door appeared in front of him. He collected his thoughts and glanced at the Beast Spirit geniuses on the other stone steps before stepping through the door. It was still a metal passageway.
Standing in the middle of the passageway was the metal puppet. Shen Ping carefully observed and discovered the difference. This time, the metal puppet had strange beast patterns on the surface. It was probably stronger.
There was no hesitation. He directly took out five beast-shaped puppets. He used the puppet great divine power—Five Elements Forbidden Divine Light!
The power of the great divine power fused by the complete beast-shaped puppet far exceeded the Talisman Dao Mystique. The divine light gathered from the five different attributes, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, did not give the beast-shaped puppet any time to resist and instantly melted.
When the power of the divine light disappeared, a smile appeared on Shen Ping’s lips. From the power fluctuations of this puppet great divine power, it was not inferior to a high-grade beast spirit treasure at all. In the future, it would be his strongest trump card.
He walked along the metal passageway. When he reached the end and pushed open the passageway door, he arrived at the Black Water River. He glanced around. There weren’t many Beast Spirit geniuses who had passed through the metal tunnel. There were only seven of them. This surprised him. After all, the Beast Spirit geniuses who had entered the Heaven Ascension Hall this time were all relatively strong. Among them was a second-grade Beast Spirit genius like Yin Ting. Under normal circumstances, it shouldn’t be difficult to defeat the metal puppet.
“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Shen!” A cold voice sounded in his ears. Shen Ping immediately noticed Yin Ting, who was wearing purple and green armor and had a figure as tall as a golden ratio, walking over. The white wings on her back were folded, and there was a hint of surprise on her beautiful face.
When she got closer, she sent a voice transmission, “That metal puppet is extremely powerful. Even a second-grade Beast Spirit genius would have to spend a long time to defeat it. I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Shen to pass so quickly!”
The surrounding six Second Grade Beast Spirit geniuses also looked over. Shen Ping came to a realization and replied, “I consumed a lot of Talisman Beast Diagrams, so I didn’t fight too much head-on.”
Yin Ting nodded. “That’s good too. If you reveal your strength, the other Beast Spirit geniuses will probably be a little afraid. It will save some trouble.”
Shen Ping nodded. “Looks like many Beast Spirit geniuses will be eliminated in this round of the metal puppet.”
“Yes. At least 90% of the Beast Spirit geniuses will die inside. Ling Chan’er will also be in danger.”
The two of them chatted briefly. Shen Ping sized up the Black Water River in front of him. The checkpoint of the Black Water River on the first level of the underground palace required one to pass through chains that had an extremely great restraining power. However, the Black Water River in front of them did not have any chains. Instead, pieces of floating jade floated above the river. None of the Beast Spirit geniuses present took the lead to step on the jade to test the danger of the Black Water River this time.
Time passed slowly. One after another, Beast Spirit geniuses passed through the metal puppets.
Another two hours passed. Ling Chan’er appeared by the Black Water River. The moon-white armor on her body was shattered, and her body was covered in blood. Her face was pale, and it was obvious that she was seriously injured. When she saw that Shen Ping and Yin Ting were not injured at all, especially Shen Ping, she realized that she had underestimated Shen Ping.
Although the other party had a high-grade beast spirit treasure, such a treasure consumed too much energy. He did not have an advantage against the metal puppet. If he could pass, he clearly had strength.
“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Ling!” The two of them went forward to congratulate her.
Ling Chan’er forced a smile.. “Please protect me!”
