Chapter 1247: Myriad Demon Stairs (Part 4)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

His seemingly light and nonchalant actions caused everyone below to be shocked.

“The sixty-first step!” Hei Jia shouted excitedly, ignoring his own situation.

“The 900-year record has been broken!”

“The record has been broken. Hurry up and inform the masters that a peerless genius has emerged from the Kunlun Mountains!”

Nine hundred years!

It was a miracle, a miracle!

...
This outsider, Ye Chen, had a chance of reaching the top!

Ye Chen had reached the sixty-first step and was not only unscathed, but his strength was also gradually increasing!

Nine hundred years ago, that genius had almost died of serious injuries when he reached the sixth step. However, Ye Chen seemed unperturbed by the waves of pressure and was still ascending casually.

As everyone watched in amazement, he reached the seventieth step.

71st step… 72nd step… 73rd step…

…

Eightieth step!

He continued to climb up. Every step he took made it look like it was a walk in the park.

Even a fourth or fifth-level Semi Divine realm expert would not be able to do this, right?

“What a powerful kid!”

“I can sense the aura of the sword and Nirvana from his body.”

At the foot of the mountain, the City Lord of Swords Gate City and the sect master of the Star Sword Sect had also heard the commotion and were staring at Ye Chen quietly.

The City Lord’s eyes narrowed slightly as he sighed with emotion.

“This kid has at least reached the fifth level of the Overlord Body realm!”

“A young cultivator who hasn’t even reached the age of thirty actually managed to achieve this… Is he from a high-level martial plane?”

He stroked his beard and said slowly, “A genius from a high-level martial plane who descended to the Blood Demon Mountain because he was seriously injured and his cultivation level had fallen. However, his body refining cultivation remained and he couldn’t enter Spirit City. Is that it?”

It seemed that this was the only reasonable explanation for what they were seeing at the moment. They did not for one second think that Ye Chen’s eighth-level Daoyuan realm cultivation was his actual strength.

Gradually, a crowd formed at the foot of the Blood Demon Mountain. They were all here to witness this grand occasion and to see whether Ye Chen could reach the 100th step, which no one had achieved for 1,700 years!

The strongest person was the genius from 900 years ago who had reached the 60th step!

Other elites, no matter how powerful they were, had only reached the 54th step. Now, Ye Chen seemed primed to successfully climb all one hundred steps of the Myriad Demon Stairs, which would engrave his name into the annals of history.

If he succeeded, there was a good chance that he would become the next owner of the spirit token!

At this moment, Ye Chen had reached the 95th step. His body was being weighed down by the pressure, but at the same time, the strength of his body was gradually increasing.

His blood essence and energy were also slowly increasing. As long as he took another step forward in his mastery of the Nirvana Dao, he would be able to break through again!

“This place isn’t just a trial. It’s also a good place to temper myself!”

“I’ve reached the fifth-level of the Overlord Body realm, but if I can break through again, my strength will be doubled!”

Ye Chen muttered to himself as he took another step.

Ninety-sixth step…

Ninety-seventh step…

Ninety-eighth step…

Ninety-ninth step!

His flesh was being gradually torn apart by the mounting waves of pressure.

“One more step!”

“My physical body will transform again!”

Ye Chen growled. He took out the blood essence he had extracted from Wei Wucheng’s body and absorbed it, using it to refine his physical body. This was the blood essence of a Semi Divine realm expert, so it was much more effective than the blood essence of the Overlord Body realm demonic beasts he possessed.

WIthin moments, Ye Chen’s torn flesh began to gradually recover.

Bang!

Ye Chen burst forth with a surge of power. His body glowed with boundless golden light and he unleashed a blow that shattered the waves of pressure in front of him.

He had successfully reached the 100th step, and his physical body had also undergone a transformation at this moment. He had truly reached the sixth level of the Overlord Body realm. Ancient runes were circulating around his body, which made him look mysterious and dazzling.

If one reached the seventh level of the Tyrant Body Stage, they would be able to absorb the power of the universe and refine their physical body, which would then make it easier for them to enter the Astral Transformation realm!

“Senior, are you here?”

Ye Chen surveyed his surroundings at the top, and saw numerous formations. The top of the mountain was a plain covered with all kinds of formations. There were more than a hundred array formations such as the Heavenly Cycle Stellar Formation, the Universe Fire Formation, the Demon-Defying Formation, the Earth Sunflower Sky Formation, and so on. They exuded endless killing intent. Even an early-stage Semi Divine realm expert could die at any time if he made the wrong move!

He looked ahead and saw a small house behind the formations, and shouted, “Senior, I’m Ye Chen. I’m here to ask for your spirit token so that I can enter Spirit City to save my friends. Please give me your spirit token!”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Cold gusts of wind came from all directions, carrying traces of scarlet blood essence.

The scarlet blood essence condensed into a human figure, and a tall and thin black-robed man wearing a mask suddenly appeared in front of Ye Chen. His appearance could not be seen clearly, nor could one tell his age. Staring at him felt like one was staring into the abyss.

He was the master of the Blood Demon Mountain!

A blood river floated behind his back, and the thick smell of blood permeated the entire mountain peak. It was hard to imagine how many people he had killed.

The corners of his lips curled into a devilish smile. He sized Ye Chen up carefully and said, “Your blood essence and killing intent are very strong. You also seem to have the combat strength of a Semi Divine realm expert despite being an eighth-level Daoyuan realm cultivator.”

“It’s hard to believe that you’re able to surpass your current realm to such a large extent. However, I can tell that you don’t have much understanding of your Daos. It seems that you truly haven’t cultivated for very long, or else you’d have comprehended your Daos to a much greater extent.”

Daos and the embryonic forms of the Great Dao were the main determinants of an expert’s cultivation level, whereas the power of one’s blood essence and soul power determined a cultivator’s combat strength/

Of course, Daos and the embryonic forms of the Great Dao could also increase one’s blood essence and blood energy. For example, the Nirvana Dao could increase the power of his attacks, but it could also exhaust the lifespan of the target of those attacks. It was a special ability.

This kid in front of him was cultivating in a rather strange manner.
