There were over a dozen stone doors, and behind each door was a small inheritance.
For ordinary cultivators, these small inheritances were enough.
But for cultivators like Fang Chen, they weren't enough. What they were interested in was the Body King's legacy.
When Fang Chen was sucked into the stone door, he discovered that this place was actually a separate space.
"What is this place?" Fang Chen was puzzled.
In front of Fang Chen were two people. One was Iron Fist He Huahui, and the other was Huan Wuming.
Adding on Fang Chen, they were the three strongest people who had entered the Body King's tomb. They were also the three most likely to obtain the Body King's legacy.
"Oh, you've also come." Huan Wuming's eyes twinkled as he spoke in a low voice.
Seeing Fang Chen's arrival, He Huahui did not say a word. He immediately leaped up and landed on the stairs in the distance.
At this time, Fang Chen was on a narrow plain.
On this plain was a stairway to heaven. This stairway connected to the horizon.
"Fang Chen, this stairway to heaven is a test." Huan Wuming suddenly said.
After learning that Fang Chen possessed a true meaning, Huan Wuming's attitude towards Fang Chen had greatly changed.
"Oh, a test?" Fang Chen was puzzled.
"Correct. If you want to obtain the Body King's legacy, you must first reach the top of the stairway." Huan Wuming said.
After saying that, Huan Wuming stepped onto the stairway.
At this time, He Huahui had already reached the fortieth step.
Fang Chen pondered for a moment, then leaped onto the stairway to heaven.
Just as he stepped onto the Sky Stairway, Fang Chen sensed a wild and violent energy instantly pressing towards him from all directions.
He wanted to circulate his spiritual qi, but he found that his qi sea was sealed. He was unable to circulate his spiritual qi.
"Could this be a test of my physical body?"
Thinking that this was the Body King's tomb, Fang Chen instantly understood.
He then circulated his sword body. His sword body had already reached the peak of the early stage of body refinement. He was only a step away from reaching the middle stage of body refinement.
Perhaps he would be able to break through this time.
Fang Chen's strong physical body, which was equivalent to the Seven-Star Dao Body, allowed him to walk very quickly on the Stairway to Heaven.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Chen had climbed more than ten steps. At this time, Fang Chen didn't feel any pressure at all.
At this moment, He Huahui had already reached the sixtieth step. As for Huan Wuming, he had also reached the fiftieth step.
Fang Chen walked at a leisurely pace. After activating the sword body, the pressure on the stairs instantly disappeared. It was as though he was walking on a plain without any pressure.
Fang Chen guessed that the real pressure should be at the top.
Indeed, after a quarter of an hour, He Huahui was stuck on the 69th floor. As for Huan Wuming, he managed to catch up and reach the 73rd floor.
This scene left He Huahui speechless.
,
However, if one's physical body was not strong enough, it would be extremely difficult to take a step forward.
He Huahui's physical body had reached the limit of a Six-Star Dao Body. If he wanted to take a step forward and reach the 70th floor, it would be too difficult. Unless his physical body broke through to the Seven-Star Dao Body level.
As for Huan Wuming, his physical body was stronger than He Huahui's by a little. He had reached the initial stage of the Seven-Star Dao Body. Therefore, he easily reached the 73rd floor.
However, after reaching the 73rd floor, Huan Wuming also felt a strong pressure. He stopped there and tempered his physical body.
Fang Chen walked at a leisurely pace. He Huahui turned around and looked at him. His eyes were filled with mockery.
He thought that Fang Chen couldn't even reach the 60th floor. There was nothing to be afraid of.
He Huahui sat cross-legged and used the wild energy on the stairs to temper his physical body.
As for Fang Chen, he was silently climbing the Stairway to Heaven.
After an hour, Fang Chen had reached the 50th floor.
Every time he reached the integer floor, Fang Chen would feel the pressure increase.
He was using the pressure to temper his body.
"The pressure is too weak." Fang Chen muttered to himself.
After tempering his physical body, Fang Chen continued walking.
Finally, at a certain moment, Fang Chen successfully surpassed He Huahui and stepped onto the seventieth level.
At this moment, He Huahui's eyes were filled with astonishment as his heart trembled.
"How is this possible? How did he reach the seventieth floor?"
He Huahui looked at Fang Chen in disbelief. Based on his previous speed, he was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to reach the 60th floor. Who would have thought that he would reach the seventieth floor in the blink of an eye?
"Could it be that his physical body has already reached the Seven-Star Dao Body level?" He Huahui looked at Fang Chen in shock.
Even Huan Wuming stopped cultivating and looked at Fang Chen.
Under their gazes, Fang Chen climbed step by step. When he surpassed Huan Wuming and reached the 74th floor, the two of them were completely shocked.
"This …"
Huan Wuming's eyes flickered with a strange light. His heart was in turmoil.
Fang Chen ignored their shock and continued moving forward.
After reaching the seventieth floor, Fang Chen felt a trace of pressure.
However, this bit of pressure was not enough for his Sword Body to break through.
Therefore, Fang Chen continued climbing. When he reached the 79th floor, he finally stopped.
Seeing this, He Huahui and Huan Wuming let out a sigh of relief. This brat's physical body was only at the Seven-Star Dao Body level. He was still unable to reach the 80th floor. They still had a chance.
Thinking of this, Huan Wuming and He Huahui continued tempering their physical bodies.
On the other hand, Fang Chen stopped at the 79th floor. The wild pressure around him made Fang Chen smile.
"It's this pressure."
Fang Chen had not felt this kind of pressure for a long time. He was very happy.
Soon after, he fully activated his Sword Body and began tempering his physical body.
A day later, He Huahui's body emitted a terrifying aura. Following which, he opened his eyes. His physical body's strength had increased tremendously. With a single step, he reached the seventieth floor.
"Hahaha, my physical body's strength has finally reached the Seven-Star Dao Body level." He Huahui was very excited.
In one breath, He Huahui reached the 75th floor. Then, he stopped. He could no longer move forward.
However, at this moment, He Huahui's eyes were filled with confidence.
After breaking through the bottleneck, he was confident that he could catch up to Fang Chen.
"Brat, just you wait. The Physique King's inheritance will definitely be mine." After saying this, He Huahui sat down cross-legged and began tempering his physical body.
Not long after He Huahui broke through the bottleneck, Huan Wuming also had some gains. He opened his eyes and started climbing the stairs.
In one breath, he reached the 77th floor. He was only two steps away from Fang Chen.
At this moment, Huan Wuming's eyes shone brightly. He felt that it would not be long before he could surpass Fang Chen.
However, after He Huahui and Huan Wuming broke through, they continued to cultivate.
Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.
In this half a month, Fang Chen did not move at all. On the other hand, He Huahui and Huan Wuming stood side by side on the 78th floor. They were only one step away from Fang Chen.
"Looks like this brat's time is up." He Huahui said eerily.
"In this half a month, he did not move at all. He must be stuck at a bottleneck. Let's fight for the Physique King's inheritance." Huan Wuming said.
At this moment, Fang Chen was standing quietly. There was even some dust on his body.
Within his body, the golden heart was beating rapidly. Traces of clear energy flowed throughout his body.
In this half a month, the golden heart had used the Undying Bird's Blood Essence to release the Undying Flame. It had been tempering Fang Chen's physical body. In addition, there was a strong pressure coming from all directions.
Fang Chen had been accumulating. As long as he found the right opportunity, he would be able to break through.
There was still a difference between the cultivation of the Dao Body and the Sword Body.
In this half a month, Fang Chen's Sword Body realm did not increase. However, his Sword Soul had become more stable.
Just as Huan Wuming and He Huahui were mocking Fang Chen, the latter's body, which had not moved for half a month, finally moved.
Immediately after, a deafening sound came from Fang Chen's body.
Rumble rumble rumble
Fang Chen suddenly opened his eyes. A vast Sword Qi rushed out from his Sword Body.
"This …"
Huan Wuming and He Huahui were shocked.
Under their gazes, Fang Chen took a step forward and entered the 80th floor.
"How is this possible?"
The two cried out at the same time.
Entering the 80th floor meant that this brat had reached the level of an Eight Star Dao Body.
"Too terrifying."
"We must not let this brat obtain the Physique King's inheritance." Huan Wuming said eerily.
Fang Chen's physical body was already so strong. Once he obtained the Physique King's inheritance, he would definitely crush the two of them.
After half a month of accumulation, he finally found an opportunity to break through to the Middle Stage of the Body Refinement Realm.
After reaching the Middle Stage of the Body Refinement Realm, Fang Chen discovered that his physical body's defense was very strong.
"Even an ordinary Ninth Level Spirit Whirlpool Realm martial artist would not be able to break through my defense." Fang Chen muttered to himself.
The Stairway to Heaven had given Fang Chen great benefits, allowing him to reach the Middle Stage of the Body Refinement Realm.
At this moment, the strong pressure suddenly weakened.
Fang Chen climbed up with ease.
When Fang Chen reached the 89th floor, he finally stopped.
When Huan Wuming and He Huahui saw that Fang Chen had stopped, they sneered. So what if you have a breakthrough? If you can't reach the top, you won't be able to obtain the Physique King's inheritance.
Rumble …
However, just as the two of them sneered, the gravity on the Stairway to Heaven suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, dark clouds gathered in the sky. An ancient aura entered the ears of the three of them.
"My inheritance can finally be passed down to the future generations."
This voice was incomparably shocking.
When He Huahui and Huan Wuming heard this, they were incomparably excited. This was the Physique King's voice.
"Senior Physique King, did you choose me?" He Huahui excitedly cried out.
"You must have chosen me." Huan Wuming solemnly said.
On the 89th floor, Fang Chen didn't say anything as he stared at the dark clouds in the sky.
At this moment, a bolt of lightning shot out from the dark clouds and struck Fang Chen's body.
Under He Huahui and Huan Wuming's gazes, Fang Chen's body gradually dissipated and disappeared from the Stairway to Heaven.
"Oh, he was struck by lightning. Could it be that he angered the Physique King and was killed by it?" He Huahui was puzzled.
"Haha, if this brat was killed by the Physique King, then wouldn't we be able to obtain the Physique King's inheritance?" Huan Wuming laughed.
