Chapter 1563 The Heavenly Ladder Appears

Fang Qiu finished watching the entire set of demonstrations.

Fang Qiu memorized all three moves in his mind from beginning to end, and at the same time, he practiced once in his consciousness space.

As of now, Fang Qiu had learned all three moves of “Ren”.

When Fang Qiu broke away from his consciousness space, Laozi happened to finish his lecture.

The other people present came to their senses one after another.

Just now…

Everyone benefited a lot from Laozi’s teaching of the Tao.

They slightly sensed it and felt that the internal Qi in their body had been purified and that the impurities had been removed. At this moment, those who couldn’t see a higher level actually had a faint feeling that they could make a breakthrough so as to see a hope to go further.

Such a feeling pleasantly surprised everyone.

Unexpectedly…

They had just entered the relic, and they could obtain such great benefits.

Filled with joy…

They started to discuss it.

“I feel that my whole body is much lighter.”

“Likewise. Even my internal Qi is several levels purer than before. I feel completely different from before.”

“Although I’ve benefited so much, it’s a pity that I didn’t understand anything just now.”

“Me either. I only heard those words, but I don’t understand the meaning of those characters at all.”

“I heard it too. The full text of the Tao Te Ching sounds very mysterious. I’ve tried my best to understand the meaning of those characters. However, no matter how hard I tried to think, I couldn’t understand it.”

“It’s good enough to hear it. Although all this is not real, what shows in front of us is indeed a picture of Laozi lecturing the Tao Te Ching.”

“What a sage of the ancient times! Immortals can connect to Heaven.”

Everyone was amazed.

However…

Fang Qiu, who was standing at the forefront, was immediately surprised when he heard the conversation among the crowd.

“Didn’t anyone else see ‘Void’? Did they really not see the third move at all?”

Fang Qiu was puzzled.

Fang Qiu turned his head and swept across everyone at the scene. He noticed that everyone was talking about it respectively and that no one mentioned “void” at all!

In other words, no one saw it at all.

Fang Qiu took a light breath.

Fang Qiu turned around again and looked in the direction ahead.

In his sight…

The huge shadow riding the Black Ox suddenly turned his head and glanced in the direction of Fang Qiu. His face was still in a blur, and he seemed to smile at Fang Qiu.

Following that…

The shadow quietly dissipated.

The lofty Hangu Pass, which was formed by the rich Qi of Heaven and Earth, also dissipated with the shadow.

“Shall we … continue to move forward?”

Master Numinous stepped forward and asked Fang Qiu.

Up ahead…

Immortal auras swirled around.

That was the area of the bluish-waved vast ocean.

That was neither an ocean nor water.

Instead, there were streams of bluish energy flow, which were just like waves on the surface of the water, rippling back and forth in that area. They looked so beautiful that no one could bear to destroy them.

“Let’s go.”

Fang Qiu nodded with a smile and said, “Since we’ve come in, it doesn’t make sense if we don’t move forward.”

“But…”

Master Numinous raised his eyebrows and said, “I wonder if there is any hidden danger in the area ahead. The bluish waves look beautiful, but who knows whether they are to confuse us or not?”

“I don’t think so.”

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “This is a place that only Huaxianese can enter. If we are not allowed to move forward, we should have been stopped when we just entered but not wait until now. Even if there is something stopping us, it will certainly not kill us. At most, it will select some metahumans to move forward.

“If you’re worried, how about I go in and have a try?”

With that…

Fang Qiu glanced at the group. Then he strode straight into the bluish-waved vast ocean.

Everyone fixed their eyes on John Doe.

As it turned out…

Nothing happened to John Doe.

John Doe was standing there safe and sound. They could tell from his expression that he seemed to be enjoying himself.

“It’s full of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, which can wash out my body.”

Fang Qiu called out.

He Gaoming, Sword Fanatic and the brothers, who had been impatient of waiting for a long time, immediately walked in.

In the meantime…

The others also entered successively when they saw this.

As expected, as soon as they entered, they found that the blueish waves, which were as vast as the ocean, were indeed all formed by the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Once they were in it, the Qi of Heaven and Earth helped wash out their bodies.

Although the effect was not strong, it was also good for them.

It was precisely because the effect was not strong that no one wanted to stay to cultivate or improve. Instead, they continued to move forward behind John Doe.

After a short while…

Under John Doe’s guidance…

The group arrived at the center of the bluish-waved vast ocean.

Fang Qiu was about to move on.

All of a sudden…

“Buzz…”

A gust of wind flow of the Qi of Heaven and Earth swept over, rushed to the front of Fang Qiu, and instantly gathered and spun into a basketball-sized vortex.

It was similar to those small tornadoes they saw when they first entered the ruins, which appeared in all directions and flashed away.

But There was a difference.

Those small tornadoes would naturally dissipate after spinning a few circles.

However, the small vortex in front of them showed no signs of dissipating. Instead, it became bigger and bigger with spinning, and the surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth quickly surged over.

Just a while later…

An enormous vortex was formed a few meters in front of Fang Qiu.

Oddly…

The wind flow ahead was violent, but they did not hear any sound of wind. It was as if it were a silent film. Until the enormous vortex was formed and fixed, there was finally a sound.

It sounded like the ethereal sound of wind chimes from the void of Heaven by themselves.

The ethereal melody continued.

It was so refreshing for everyone to hear.

Following the appearance of the ethereal melody, a huge Heavenly Ladder suddenly extended out in the enormous vortex ahead, all the way up into the sky.

Upon a closer look…

The enormous vortex had turned into a flat surface, and like a floor, it supported the entire Heavenly Ladder.

The Heavenly Ladder was incomparably grand and magnificent.

Looking up from below…

Everyone couldn’t help but feel themselves as insignificant and inferior as fireworks and dust.

“Heavenly Ladder!”

Everyone quickly stepped forward.

They looked up at the huge Heavenly Ladder carefully.

And they saw…

On one side of the Heavenly Ladder, two lines of words condensed by the Qi of Heaven and Earth appeared.

It read: “Heavenly Ladder.

“One who ascends the Heavenly Ladder can change from a mortal to an Immortal.”

Seeing these two lines of words.

Everyone on the spot was shocked.

“Ascend to the Heavens. This is the path to reach the Heavens. This is the path of changing from a mortal to an immortal!”

Someone shouted excitedly.

While being shocked…

Everyone moved and hurriedly rushed toward the Heavenly Ladder.

However…

Fang Qiu realized that when he was in the bluish-waved vast ocean, he could fly but always felt a little difficult. He looked toward his brothers. Sword Fanatic was as same as him, and He Gaoming and the others were even slower.

“How long will the Heavenly Ladder last?”

This question came into Fang Qiu’s mind.

Fang Qiu and Sword Fanatic looked at each other. Then they waved their hands at the same time, activated their internal Qi, and rushed toward the Heavenly Ladder, followed by the more than 30 brothers.

Before long…

Soon, they got to the front of the Heavenly Ladder with He Gaoming and the others.

At this time, the four gurus from the Sword Sect, Master Numinous, and the four patriarchs had stepped across to the Heavenly Ladder one by one.

In merely a single step, they all vanished.

“Brothers, let’s go.”

He Gaoming shouted, then laughed and made a hold fist salute to his brothers before striding across.

Soon, all of the brothers stepped across to the Heavenly Ladder.

“Brother John Doe, I have to go.”

Sword Fanatic made a hold fist salute to Fang Qiu.

“How about we go together?”

Fang Qiu responded with a smile.

Then…

Fang Qiu stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder with Sword Fanatic.

“Clatter.”

He took a step up. Googlᴇ search ɴovel(F)ɪre

Fang Qiu had thought that everything in front of him was fake, for he witnessed others vanish when they took a step onto the Heavenly Ladder. So he thought that others must have entered a certain Mysterious Realm that existed in this area.

But to his surprise…

His first step landed steadily when he stepped onto the Heavenly Ladder.

He found himself really standing on the Heavenly Ladder.

But…

All the people around him had disappeared.

Under his feet…

It was the first step of the Heavenly Ladder, which he had just seen.

Fang Qiu turned his head and looked around.

Suddenly, the scene before Fang Qiu began to change.

With a loss of attention, everything before him had changed to snow white, and the step under his feet was also covered with a thick layer of snow. Fang Qiu did not speak, but his breath turned into hot air and appeared in front of his eyes. Without his notice, the surrounding temperature had dropped to the point that made him feel chill.

In front of him, there were some snowflakes falling on the wide steps. It snowed not heavily, but it felt quite real.

“Is this the Heavenly Ladder?”

Fang Qiu was curious.

Without hesitation…

He stepped onto the second step.

There was no sudden change in the scenery before him. However, when he stepped onto the second step, Fang Qiu distinctly felt that the temperature became even lower.

Standing on the second step, Fang Qiu felt even colder than winter on the first step.

In addition to the thick snow on this step, Fang Qiu saw a few icicles on the vertical sides of the step, just like the icicles hanging on the eaves in the countryside in winter.

Fang Qiu continued to move forward. He stepped onto the third step.

When he took that step forward…

Fang Qiu suddenly felt like his whole body was being pricked by needles.

He felt frozen to the bone. In addition to thick snow, the icicles on the vertical sides of the step had also been frozen into cubes, and they were especially thick.

It left Fang Qiu with the impression that they couldn’t be broken even if he wanted to smash them hard.

“Why is it getting colder and colder?

“If the temperature keeps dropping like this, won’t people freeze to death?”

Fang Qiu murmured to himself.

Of course…

For Fang Qiu, such chill was nothing. He just felt a little bit cold, but he was worried about his brothers.

“These brothers are not even gurus. If it continues to get colder and colder, where can they reach?”

Thinking of this, Fang Qiu shook his head.

Then Fang Qiu moved on, stepping onto the fourth step.

Strangely…

When he took that step forward…

Fang Qiu saw that the snow all over the floor had turned into ice water, gurgling on the ground, and the thick layer of ice on the vertical surface of the sides of the step had melted.

The temperature rose slightly, and a faint breeze blew over.

“Eh?”

“Is this … that Spring comes after Winter?”

Fang Qiu was slightly stunned. He thought it back carefully. He seemed to have suddenly recalled something, and his eyes lit up.

He realized it.

Each of these steps seemed to represent a solar term.

The first step represented Winter Solstice, so it snowed.

The second step represented Minor Cold. The third step represented Major Cold. And the fourth step represented the Beginning of Spring!

Then, the next step should represent Rain Water.

At this thought…

Fang Qiu immediately strode up to the fifth step.
