Shi Yingjie, who was knocked down by Zhao Jingsheng before, started climbing again after taking pills to adjust his breathing. Although he was knocked down, he was not seriously injured, so it didn't take long for him to return to his original height.
The other people, whether they are Ye Zan's companions, people from the Dao Palace and Freemasonry, or a few from the Demon Dao, and a few from the Star Sect, are also continuing to climb up step by step. Even if the speed is very slow, as long as it keeps moving upward, it means that you can continue to get huge benefits from it.
As for the members of the Arctic Sword Sect, although Ye Zan did not kill them harshly, it is already impossible for them to continue climbing the ladder. They could only hold on to their injuries and gather together, looking at the others angrily. Even Geng Xin at the end of the crane gradually disappeared from their sight.
"What a shame, when we get out, we will definitely ask the master to seek justice for us!" A member of the Arctic Sword Sect said bitterly. However, even though his heart was full of anger and resentment, he still lowered his voice subconsciously, as if he was afraid that the words would reach Ye Zan's ears.
"Yes, so what if several of their sects unite together? When will I, the Arctic Sword Sect, need to worry about them!" Another member of the Arctic Sword Sect also said in a suppressed voice.
"And that Xingchen Sect, we kindly brought them all the way here, but they didn't even dare to fart at the critical moment. It's really chilling!" Some people also added the Xingchen Sect to their hate list.
"Humph, there are Taihao Sect and Jiuyun Sword Sect. They split up as soon as they saw the situation was not going well. As a result, they have not been seen yet." Some people thought of Taihao Sect and Jiuyun Sword Sect, but they didn't Knowing that the people from those two sects are already in Ye Zan's jade ball space.
"Stop talking, those outsiders have no one they can trust, and they don't even think about it. Without our permission, how can they have the right to visit this fairy palace!" A man who was injured, but still arrogant. , said with great indignation.
These people from the Arctic Sword Sect can only huddle here and simply talk happily to relieve the huge resentment in their hearts.
However, everyone in the Arctic Sword Sect did not know that even though they had lowered their voices and said these words in a voice that only each other could hear. However, these words have been transmitted to Ye Zan far above through some small things, as clear as if they heard them right next to them.
However, even after hearing those words, Ye Zan had no intention of doing anything. The reason why he monitored the other party's conversation was just to determine whether the other party had other trump cards, just in case they still had the kind of thing Guo Zhenyang used.
You know, the ice core Guo Zhenyang used before directly gave birth to Xiao Baxia, which shows the huge spiritual energy contained in it. If these golden elixir masters of the Arctic Sword Sect had something similar in their hands, even if it was not as good as Guo Zhenyang's, Ye Zan would be able to make a small fortune.
It's a pity that Zhao Jingsheng and others are obviously not qualified to possess that kind of ice core.
However, it is not surprising when you think about it. Zhao Jingsheng and others are just masters of Jindan. Even if they have secret methods to improve their strength, can they be promoted to a half-step Nascent Soul? As for people like Guo Zhenyang who were promoted to a half-step soul, they couldn't bear the huge power.
After confirming that Zhao Jingsheng and others had no trump cards, Ye Zan was too lazy to talk to them anymore and concentrated on doing his own thing.
Ye Zan and Cheng Daqi can be regarded as being outstanding all the way, leaving the others far behind. Ye Zan did not deliberately strive for the first place. He took every step very steadily, and maximized the effect of invisible pressure with every step.
In fact, apart from the invisible pressure, practicing here has a very big benefit, that is, the spiritual energy here is very abundant, and the cultivation environment is far from comparable to that in the Shenhua Domain.
Although, even in the Shenhua Realm, Ye Zan can create a good training environment for himself by activating the inert spiritual energy. However, that kind of cultivation environment is still worse than here.
Here, perhaps because after thousands of years of accumulation, the spiritual energy is as thick as water. Under the influence of the invisible pressure, the spiritual energy seems to be forcibly pressed into the body through the pores of the body, even if you don't want it.
However, the higher you stand, the better the practice effect will be. The body's meridians and acupuncture points also need to adapt. If you forcefully rush to a high place, even if you rush to a very high place, the effect of practice will not be as good as after adapting to the lower part, and you may even injure the meridians and acupoints.
For others, the effect may be slightly different, and they won't care too much if they don't feel it. However, Ye Zan can use the auxiliary chip to calculate an optimal ratio of stress and adaptability to obtain the best training effect.
There is a saying that "Haste makes waste", and another saying is "If you want to do something well, you must first sharpen your tools." Ye Zan seems to have given up the speed of climbing in order to pursue the effect of cultivation, but in fact But it didn't slow down.
To say the least, Ye Zan's climbing speed is not slow compared to Cheng Daqi. The two of them were almost constantly surpassing each other. One moment, Cheng Daqi was in front, and the next moment, Ye Zan jumped from behind to first place.
Of course, because the higher you go, the invisible pressure becomes stronger, so Ye Zan and Cheng Daqi's overall speed is still slowing down. When the two of them entered the nine hundred steps one after another, they had to stay on each step for a long time.
"You are not what some people say." Cheng Daqi suddenly said to Ye Zan when they were on the same staircase platform again.
"Oh, what's it like?" Ye Zan sat down and asked Cheng Daqi casually.
"This..." Cheng Daqi scratched his head and seemed a little embarrassed and said: "Arrogant, arrogant, insidious, cunning, in short, they are not good words."
"Haha." Ye Zan smiled. Although he and the Xingchen Sect, or some people from the Xingchen Sect, have not met, they already have a grudge, so this kind of thing is conceivable.
Although there is no evidence to prove that Ye Zan was responsible for the death of the disciples of the Star Sect on Tiandao Mountain, the Great Dream even used the method of entering a dream to test it. However, for some people, evidence is not important, such as Grandmaster Feng, who determined that Ye Zan did it no matter what.
And among those close to the disciples in the Star Sect, it was certainly not just Grandmaster Feng who believed that Ye Zan was the murderer.
What's more, in addition to the deaths of those disciples, Grandmaster Feng also died at the hands of Ye Zan. Although there is no evidence for this matter, someone must know what Grandmaster Feng did to die.
However, after weighing the gains and losses, and facing the benefits that could be obtained by cooperating with the Yuqing Sect, the Star Sect no longer clung to these two things. However, within the Xingchen Sect, those who were close to Grandmaster Feng and the deceased disciples would definitely not say anything good about Ye Zan.
Therefore, it would be strange if what Cheng Daqi heard about Ye Zan from his fellow disciples was anything good.
"So, what do you think, fellow Taoist, what I heard is different from what you heard?" Ye Zan asked in a funny tone. In fact, when he heard the comments about himself from Cheng Daqi, he secretly felt that those people seemed to be quite accurate!
Of course, Ye Zan doesn't think there's anything arrogant about him. At most, he's just unwilling to compromise on some things because he has the ability to grow mushrooms. As for insidiousness and cunning, it depends on how you listen to it. The insidiousness and cunningness mentioned by the enemies should be regarded as clever and witty from Ye Zan's own side...
Cheng Daqi stared at Ye Zan with his slit eyes and said: "Before, when fellow Taoist just caught up from below, I was doing my exercises. Not only did fellow Taoist not make any plot, he even There is no distracting behavior. I think that from this point alone, you should be an upright person."
Hearing this explanation, Ye Zan was a little speechless. He didn't take action before, or even disturb the opponent's mind. He was worried about the opponent's great luck. Unexpectedly, in the eyes of the other party, this became a sign of being aboveboard.
"Didn't you see that I just took action against the people of the Arctic Sword Sect? Don't you think I went too far?" Ye Zan asked curiously.
"It is precisely because I saw it that I became even more convinced that fellow Taoist is definitely not the kind of person they say. He would not hesitate to offend the Arctic Sword Sect for his friends. How could this be the kind of person they said!" Cheng Daqi immediately said. Said righteously.
It seems that this first impression is indeed very important.
If Cheng Daqi has a prejudice against Ye Zan in his heart, then no matter what Ye Zan does is right or wrong, he will definitely think about the bad side.
For example, when Ye Zan dealt with the people of the Arctic Sword Sect, another person might think that Ye Zan was arrogant and arrogant. After all, everyone is a righteous person. If there is something that we cannot sit down and talk about slowly, we must act so harshly.
However, for the same thing, if the first impression is good, Cheng Daqi will instinctively think about things in a positive way. He believed that Ye Zan was loyal, responsible, not afraid of power, and did not hesitate to offend the powerful Arctic Sword Sect for his friends.
Cheng Daqi didn't know Ye Zan's thoughts. After saying those words, he raised his hands to Ye Zan with admiration and said, "I am Cheng Daqi of Xingchen Sect. I have met fellow Taoist Ye."
"Ye Zan, Yuqingzong, I have met Taoist friend Cheng." Ye Zan had no choice but to calm down and returned the gift.
"When I return to the sect, I must tell those people that what they hear is false and what they see is true. I will never let them continue to smear fellow Taoists!" Cheng Daqi said seriously.
Facing such a person, Ye Zan could only helplessly smile bitterly, cupped his hands and said, "Then, I will first thank you as a fellow Taoist."
"You're welcome, fellow Taoist. This is what I should do. I would also like to thank you, fellow Taoist, for bringing Senior Brother Geng here." Cheng Daqi immediately returned the courtesy and said.
Therefore, there is no love without reason in this world, and there is no hatred without reason. The reason why Cheng Daqi looks at Ye Zan so much is that, on the one hand, Ye Zan did not plot against him, and on the other hand, it was because of something Ye Zan did casually that brought Geng Xin here.
In any case, at least now it seems that there is no need to be an enemy of someone with great luck. Ye Zan was actually secretly relieved. It's not that he's a coward, it's that his backstage is too tough. Even if it's a top sect, it can't compare to God's backstage!
After the two people had a conversation, it cannot be said that they became friends immediately, at least they seemed to be a lot more familiar with each other. After that, the two of them practiced their skills and climbed up the ladder as before.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Zan and Cheng Daqi were already at the bottom of the stairs leading to the ninth floor. With more than a dozen steps, they could enter the ninth floor of the Tower of Babel.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, I'm really ashamed. I have to take the first step." Cheng Daqi stood up and said to Ye Zan, who had just come over, after practicing his skills for a long time.
However, Cheng Daqi didn't just take the first step because he was prepared and adapted to the pressure here. At this time, it was very difficult for him to stand up, and his body was still visibly shaking as he stood there.
Obviously, Cheng Daqi was not ready, but rather unable to hold on. The pressure here has become so great that people's minds and hearts are oppressed, and it is very difficult to operate a thought, let alone operate mana.
However, it is already very close to the top. If you can rush up to it, the pressure will disappear. Therefore, Cheng Daqi decided to take the first step to see if he could reach the top.
"Do you want to take the risk, fellow Daoist Cheng? But if you fail, I'm afraid there will be a lot of damage!" Of course, Ye Zan also saw Cheng Daqi's condition, so he expressed his worries.
"I can't help it. I really can't hold it any longer." Cheng Daqi said with some difficulty.
"Well, I wish fellow Taoist success." Ye Zan stopped persuading. In fact, he felt that it was really possible for Cheng Daqi to succeed. After all, he was a man of great luck.
Many times, luck is reflected in the fact that when you want to take a gamble, people with good luck will win the bet, and people with bad luck will lose the bet. To become a great weapon, since it is blessed with great luck, even if you are not sure to win every bet, you will not be cheated at the critical moment.
"Thank you, Taoist friend, for your kind words." Cheng Daqi said, and then with his small mallet-like fingers, he pinched a spell on his chest with great difficulty.
As the technique was completed, he looked like a powerful man. He suddenly changed from a white fat man to a red fat man, and his skin seemed to be bleeding. Immediately afterwards, he kicked the ground hard with both feet, as if the entire staircase was sinking, and his heavy body was like a cannonball, shooting toward the stairs. (To be continued.)
