…
With this step, Qin Fang's spirit seemed to have been sucked dry in an instant … Blood had already wrapped around him, and he looked too tragic.
"The ninety-ninth step …"
Qin Fang counted silently.
This number should be enough to make him proud.
His true strength was only at the peak of the Supreme Martial Artist realm … Even if he borrowed strength from Xiaolong, his strength could barely reach the level of a Martial Emperor, or at most, a mid-stage Martial Emperor.
However, Qin Fang had used this kind of physical body and strength to stand on the ninety-ninth step, which only a peak Martial Emperor could stand on!
"This time, I've played it big …"
Qin Fang's consciousness was blurred, and it seemed like his spirit had been severely damaged. It looked like he could not hold on any longer, but he did not regret it at all. "But … this is worth it!"
Only when he stood on this position could Qin Fang truly feel the level, realm, and power of "looking down on all mountains and dwarfs". This would bring indescribable benefits to his future path as a Martial Emperor!
This kind of experience, vision, and understanding were hard to come by!
"Let's try again …"
Even so, Qin Fang still did not give up. Almost at the moment when he was about to faint, he suddenly made a decision … to break through to the hundredth step of the Stairway to Heaven!
Qin Fang was a crazy executor!
Almost as soon as this thought appeared in his mind, his body involuntarily executed it!
Buzz ~ ~
Qin Fang once again took a step forward with great difficulty, and then he started to break through to the hundredth step … Even though Qin Fang knew that he had no chance of success, he still decided to give it a try.
"The hundredth step … the realm of a Sage!"
"Although I don't know if I'll have the chance to reach this level in my life, this is a precious opportunity that may only come once in my life … I'll give it my all!"
Qin Fang thought so in his heart.
With Qin Fang's other physiques and that strange system, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to become a Martial Emperor. However, the possibility of him breaking through to the next level, the Saint level … was too low, too low!
It wasn't that Qin Fang wasn't strong enough, but that the environment on Earth was limited. With such a terrible spiritual energy density, no matter how strong Qin Fang was, it was almost impossible for him to break through that boundary!
Of course, if he was in one of the Eight Great Secret Realms, especially the Secret Realms that were ranked at the top, it would be possible for him to do so.
But it was only a possibility!
There were many conditions required to break through to the Martial Saint level, and they were also very harsh. Qin Fang had not even reached the Martial Emperor level yet, so he could not see that far ahead. Naturally, he had no way of knowing.
In that case, it would be extremely meaningful to break through to the 100th level and experience the realm of a Martial Saint!
Therefore, even though Qin Fang knew that his chances of success were basically zero, he still wanted to risk his life and give it a try … So much so that he directly consumed a White Tiger's Demonic Core for the sake of that tiny fraction of a second of comprehension!
This was a type of pill that could cause one to go berserk. Its effects were very scary, but the side effects were also very strong … Even with Qin Fang's tyrannical strength, he usually wouldn't dare to use it casually!
However, in this situation, Qin Fang could no longer care so much.
With his current physical condition and strength, breaking through to the 100th level was already difficult enough, and he might even be seriously injured … As the saying goes, when you have too many lice, you don't itch; when you have too many debts, you don't have to worry. Even if there were some serious side effects, it would just be adding frost on top of frost.
"Roar ~ ~"
Once the White Tiger's Demonic Pill was used, the effect was immediately different!
Qin Fang roared angrily, and then the bloodstains on his body seemed to come to life in an instant. They actually flowed strangely, and then flowed back into Qin Fang's body from his cracked wounds. Even Qin Fang's damaged body healed in an instant, and it was almost impossible to see the severe cracks from before!
Even …
The dragon scales on the surface of Qin Fang's body became even more prominent, and his defensive power became even more shocking. Even his Martial Emperor level strength was increased to a certain extent!
"This White Tiger's Demonic Pill is indeed overbearing …"
Although this White Tiger's Demonic Pill was refined by Qin Fang himself, and he knew that its effects would be very strong, this was the first time that Qin Fang had tried and experienced this kind of pill. At this moment, he was deeply shocked.
After all, Qin Fang's current strength was already at the Martial Emperor level, and it was already the limit that he could reach.
It was very, very difficult to improve even a little, but this White Tiger's Demonic Pill did it, and it allowed Qin Fang's strength to increase to a certain extent … Although it was only a certain amount of increase, and there was no particularly terrifying qualitative change, it was already enough.
"Kill!"
The White Tiger's Demonic Pill's effects were very strong, but at the same time, the side effects were also very great. When Qin Fang felt his strength increase, he also felt the abnormal restlessness of the blood in his body, as if it was ignited by a raging flame.
This also told Qin Fang that he didn't have much time …
Once the raging flame in his heart burned too fiercely, it might directly evaporate his blood. Then, even if he was lucky enough to not die, he would definitely become a cripple with nothing left!
This also forced Qin Fang to break through!
Of course, Qin Fang had already made plans. He didn't hesitate at all. When his strength rose to the limit, he quickly lifted his foot and stepped towards the hundredth floor …
Buzz ~ ~
His foot had just reached the border between the ninety-ninth floor and the hundredth floor when Qin Fang already felt a terrifying domineering power … Under such a terrifying power, even though Qin Fang was now at the Martial Emperor level, he almost didn't have the courage to lift his foot.
"Fight!"
However, the more oppressed Qin Fang was, the more Qin Fang's heart was stimulated. Clenching his teeth, Qin Fang gathered almost all of his strength and poured it all into that leg, using all of his strength to break through that layer of barrier.
Buzz buzz buzz ~ ~ ~
This kind of collision of strength and aura seemed ordinary, but the danger in it was hundreds or thousands of times greater than a fight between real experts … This level of strength was really too high.
Pu ~ ~
Just a little bit of aura escaped, but Qin Fang immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ah ha ~ ~"
However, Qin Fang directly and fiercely forced out some essence blood, once again exploding with a tyrannical strength to support that leg … He saw that it finally stepped over the border a little bit!
That's right, it really was a little bit!
Almost a little bit that could be barely seen with the naked eye …
However, that majestic aura that was like a mountain and an ocean instantly pressed down on him …
Pu ~ ~
At this moment, the incomparably ferocious Qin Fang seemed to have suffered a heavy blow. He instantly spat out a large mouthful of blood … Even the fragments of his internal organs were mixed in. Then, his entire body flew backwards!
"I did it …"
Qin Fang was sent flying by that terrifying aura!
However, there was no dejection or disappointment on his face. Instead, there was a satisfied smile on his face … He even silently muttered such a sentence in his heart.
He didn't really manage to stand on the hundredth floor …
He didn't even touch the hundredth floor of the Stairway to Heaven. He only crossed the border between the ninety-ninth and the hundredth floor … However, he thought that he had succeeded.
There was no other reason …
Just as his leg passed over, in addition to that terrifying Saint level aura, some inexplicable realizations also surged into Qin Fang's mind at the same time!
Although it was just a few fragments and almost didn't form any systematic realizations, it made Qin Fang feel that he had gained a lot … This trip wasn't in vain!
Even if he was sent back to Earth now, even if he was seriously injured, he wouldn't regret it at all!
This was a matter of height!
Saint level experts were very scary, very scary … Qin Fang had even come into contact with them before, for example, that ice giant!
However, that kind of Saint level strength and aura belonged to the other party. It had no meaning to Qin Fang … The little bit of realizations that he had just received belonged to Qin Fang himself.
This made Qin Fang stand at a completely different height!
When he stood on the ninety-ninth floor, Qin Fang could be considered to be standing at the ultimate Martial Emperor realm. Qin Fang had already comprehended all the powers below this level … Perhaps he hadn't really reached that level of strength yet, but this height meant that his future path would be much smoother.
This was like an ordinary person who had taken a precious pill and directly rose from level 1 to level 7 …
Perhaps his true combat power was far from that of a Level-7, but at this height, he could skip the process of progressing from Level-1 to Level-7. This meant that he would have an easier time than those who had slowly accumulated from Level-1 to Level-7.
This was also a shortcut that many super forces took to nurture their young people!
Qin Fang's current situation was somewhat similar … It could also be considered a shortcut!
However, his shortcut was different from other people's shortcuts. He had fought for it step by step … In this process, although Xiaolong had helped a lot, it didn't diminish Qin Fang's importance at all!
Especially this last step, Qin Fang was practically risking his life!
Qin Fang flew down from the Stairway to Heaven …
A hundred floors of the Stairway to Heaven, the drop added up to only a few tens of meters. This height was basically the same as scratching an itch for a Martial Emperor … However, when Qin Fang fell to the ground, he spat out a mouthful of blood. It seemed that there were even fragments of his internal organs. It was a tragic sight!
However …
Qin Fang's eyes gradually regained their clarity. His consciousness was no longer as blurry as before …
After escaping from the tyrannical power of the Stairway to Heaven, Qin Fang immediately swallowed Blood Replenishing Pills to save his life. As long as his Health Points didn't fall to zero, his life wouldn't be in danger. The other injuries could be slowly healed!
